The Company has one operating subsidiary, Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS” or the “broker-dealer subsidiary”) a FINRA member broker-dealer.

The Company is a financial services holding company that, through its broker dealer subsidiary, Capital Financial Services, Inc., provides brokerage, investment advisory, insurance and related services. The Company operates in a highly regulated and competitive industry that is influenced by numerous external factors such as economic conditions, marketplace liquidity and volatility, monetary policy, global and national political events, regulatory developments, competition, and investor preferences. The Company’s revenues and net earnings may be either enhanced or diminished from period to period by such external factors. The Company remains focused on continuing to reduce redundant operating costs, upgrade operating efficiency, recruit quality representatives, and grow our revenue base. The Company provides broker-dealer services in support of trading and investment by its representatives’ customers in corporate equity and debt securities, U.S. Government securities, municipal securities, mutual funds, private placement alternative investments, variable annuities and variable life insurance. The Company also provides investment advisory services for its representative’s customers.

A key component of the broker-dealer subsidiary’s business strategy is to recruit well-established, productive representatives who generate substantial revenues from an array of investment products and services. Additionally, the broker-dealer subsidiary assists its representatives in developing and expanding their business by providing a variety of support services and a diversified range of investment products for their clients.

On June 9, 2014, the Company launched a wholly owned operating subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., a Colorado corporation. Capital Natural Resources, Inc. sought opportunities related to natural resources in the United States, including petroleum, natural gas, and/or other minerals, water resources and land. In the first quarter of 2017, all of the natural resource assets were disposed of by CNR and CNR was dissolved on April 21, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, the natural resource subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., met the definition of discontinued operations.

PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. (“CFH”) derives the majority of its revenues and net income from sales of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities through Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary.

The Company organizes its business units into two reportable segments: Broker-Dealer Services and Holding Company. The Broker-Dealer Services segment distributes securities and insurance products to retail investors through a network of registered representatives. A former Natural Resource segment sought opportunities in petroleum and natural gas exploration and production. In the first quarter of 2017, all of the natural resource assets were disposed of by the Natural Resource segment and the segment met the definition of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2016.

The Company has been engaged in the financial services business since 1987. The Company was incorporated September 22, 1987, as a North Dakota corporation. The Company’s principal offices are located at 1821 Burdick Expressway W., Minot, North Dakota 58701. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had 17 full-time employees consisting of officers, principals, data processing, compliance, accounting, and clerical support staff.

Business Development

On June 9, 2014, the Company launched a wholly owned operating subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., a Colorado corporation. Capital Natural Resources, Inc. sought opportunities related to natural resources in the United States, including petroleum, natural gas, and/or other minerals, water resources and land. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company determined to dispose of its natural resource assets in order to concentrate on its core business of broker-dealer services to enable a more efficient use of its personnel and financial resources. In the first quarter of 2017, all of the natural resource assets were disposed of by CNR and CNR was dissolved on April 21, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, the natural resource subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., met the definition of discontinued operations.

The Company’s Subsidiaries

The Company organizes its business units into two reportable segments: Broker-Dealer Services and Holding Company. The Broker-Dealer Services segment distributes securities and insurance products to retail investors through a network of registered representatives through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), a Wisconsin corporation. The Holding Company encompasses cost associated with ownership of its office building, business development and acquisitions, dispositions of subsidiary entities and results of discontinued operations, dividend income and recognized gains or losses.

The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. derives all of its revenues and net income from sales of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities through Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary.

Capital Financial Services, Inc.

CFS is a full-service brokerage firm. CFS is registered with the SEC as an investment advisor and broker-dealer and also with FINRA as a broker-dealer. CFS specializes in providing investment products and services to independent investment representatives, financial planners, and investment advisors and currently supports approximately 144 investment representatives and investment advisors.

Capital Natural Resources, Inc.

On June 9, 2014, the Company launched a wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., a Colorado corporation. Capital Natural Resources, Inc. sought opportunities related to natural resources in the United States, including petroleum, natural gas, and/or other minerals, water resources and land. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company determined to dispose of its natural resource segment in order to concentrate on its core business of broker-dealer services to enable a more efficient use of its personnel and financial resources. In the first quarter of 2017, all of the natural resource assets were disposed of by CNR and CNR was dissolved on April 21, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, the natural resource subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., met the definition of discontinued operations.

Description Of Business

Brokerage Commissions

CFS’s primary source of revenue is commission revenue in connection with sales of shares of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities. CFS receives commission and Rule 12b-1 servicing revenue generated from the sale of investment products originated by its registered representatives. CFS also receives investment advisory revenue as a registered investment advisor. CFS pays a portion of the revenue generated to its registered representatives and retains the balance. Commission incomeand the related clearing expenses are recorded based on the trade date. The revenue earned from 12b-1 is recognized ratably over the period received. Investment advisory fees are derived from account management and investment advisory services. These fees are determined based on a percentage of the customer’s assets under sponsor management or a flat fee, may be billed monthly or quarterly and recognized ratably over the period received. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Regulation

Virtually all aspects of the Company’s businesses are subject to various complex and extensive federal and state laws and regulations. Regulated areas include, but are not limited to, the effecting of securities transactions, the financial condition of the Company’s subsidiaries, record-keeping and reporting procedures, relationships with clients, and experience and training requirements for certain employees. The Company’s subsidiary, Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), is registered with various federal and state government agencies, including the SEC, as well as FINRA, a self-regulatory industry organization, as described below.

CFS is a registered broker-dealer subject to extensive regulation and periodic examinations by the SEC, FINRA, and state agencies in those states in which CFS conducts business. As a broker-dealer, CFS is subject to the Net Capital Rule promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). This rule requires that a broker-dealer must maintain certain minimum net capital and that its aggregate indebtedness may not exceed specified limitations.

Federal and state laws and regulations, and the rules of FINRA, grant broad powers to such regulatory agencies and organizations. These include the power to limit, restrict, or prevent the Company from carrying on its business if it fails to comply with such laws, regulations and rules. Other possible sanctions that may be imposed include the suspension of individual employees, restrictions on the Company expanding its business or paying cash dividends, the revocation of the investment advisor or broker dealer expulsions, censures, and/or fines.

The Company operates under the provision of Paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, accordingly, is exempt from the remaining provisions of that rule. To the best of its knowledge the Company met the identified exemption provisions from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 without exception.

Since 1993, FINRA rules have limited the amount of aggregate sales charges which may be paid in connection with the purchase and holding of investment company shares sold through broker-dealers. From time to time, Congress and the SEC have considered adding amendments to Rule 12b-1 and other statutory provisions and rules that regulate the distribution of mutual fund shares. The effect of the rule amendments and other legislative or regulatory actions might be to limit the amount of fees that could be paid pursuant to a fund’s 12b-1 Plan in a situation where a fund has no, or limited, new sales for a prolonged period of time, as well as the imposition of other limits on the use of fund assets to pay for distribution.

Competition

The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from commission revenue earned in connection with sales of shares of mutual funds, insurance products and various other securities, and also receives investment advisory revenue.

The Company participates in retail brokerage, a highly competitiverelated sector of the financial services industry. The Company competes directly with full-service stock brokerage firms, insurance companies, banks, regional broker-dealers, other independent broker-dealers, and other financial institutions, as well as investment advisory firms. Each of these competitors offer to the public many of the same investment products and services offered by the Company. Further, other broker-dealers providing the same services heavily recruit the representatives and advisors transacting business through the Company. This competition forces the Company to maintain high levels of support services and commission payouts for these representatives and advisors. These high levels of services and payouts could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s earnings.

Recent Developments

In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company determined to dispose of its natural resource segment in order to concentrate on its core business of broker-dealer services to enable a more efficient use of its personnel and financial resources. As of December 31, 2016, the segment met the definition of discontinued operations. The sale of the assets of the natural resource segment was completed on March 3, 2017 for cash of $66,200. Impairment on its oil and gas properties was recorded based upon the actual value of the assets as determined by sale of the assets in open unreserved auction through an independent nationally recognized oil and gas property auction facility as of December 31, 2016. The natural resource entity was dissolved on April 21, 2017.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Not Applicable as a Smaller Reporting Company.

Item 2. Properties

The Company’s principal offices are located at 1821 Burdick Expressway W., Minot, North Dakota 58701 in a commercial office building which the Company purchased on November 16, 2016 from Evanmark Enterprises, LLC for $975,000, exclusive of closing costs of $9,091. The Company paid $509,091 at closing with the remaining $475,000 of the purchase price financed by a commercial real estate loan from American Bank Center in the principal amount of $675,000, $475,000 of which was applied to the purchase price of the office building and $200,000 of which was utilized for renovations to the building. Renovations to the building at a cost of $221,264 were made in 2017 to bring the final cost of the land and building to $1,195,355. The loan carries a fixed interest rate of 4.879% per annum for five (5) years with the rate to be adjusted at the end of the five (5) year period based on the Wall Street Journal Prime interest rate plus 1.759%. The Company moved into the building in June of 2017 and occupies 6,188 square feet in the office facility, of which approximately 5,817 square feet of office space is utilized by CFS, the Company’s wholly owned broker-dealer subsidiary. CFS pays $8,500 per month to the Company on a month-to-month basis for the portion of the office facility utilized by it. Approximately 4,152 square feet in a separate section of the building remains vacant and is available as an office rental unit or for expansion. The Company believes that the office facility is adequate for the Company’s operating needs.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company operates in a legal and regulatory environment that exposes it to potentially significant litigation risks. Issuers of certain alternative products sold by the Company are in Bankruptcy or may have other financial difficulties. As a result of such alleged failings of alternative products and the uncertainty of client recovery from the various product issuers, the Company is subject to several legal and/or arbitration proceedings. These proceedings include customer suits, investments alleged to be unsuitable, and bankruptcies and other issues brought by claimants. The Company vigorously contests the allegations of the various proceedings and believes that there are multiple meritorious legal and fact based defenses in these matters. Such cases are subject to many uncertainties, and their outcome is often difficult to predict, including the impact on operations or on the financial statements, particularly in the earlier stages of a case. The Company makes provisions for cases brought against it when, in the opinion of management after seeking legal advice, it is probable that a liability exists and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The current proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, the Company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result from the outcome of these cases; however, results in these cases that are against the interests of the Company could have a severe negative impact on the financial position of the Company. As of December 31, 2017, the Company was a defendant in seven on-going suits or arbitrations as discussed above. On January 19, 2018, the Company settled one of the aforementioned arbitration cases without admission of liability. Payment of $55,249 was made February 14, 2018, and recorded as a liability on December 31, 2017. On February 15, 2018, the Company settled another one of the aforementioned arbitration cases without admission of liability. Payment of $35,000 was made March 19, 2018, and recorded as a liability on December 31, 2017.

On April 5, 2011, several broker-dealers and their principals/officers, including the Company and John Carlson, President and Chief Compliance Officer, filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of California for Orange County against Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C. (“Mayer Hoffman”) captioned Signature Financial Group, Inc., et al, (“Signature”) v. Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C., et al). The lawsuit arose out of reviews of the financial statements of Medical Capital Holdings, Inc. (“Medical Capital”) by Mayer Hoffman. In June 2009, Medical Capital was sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”). A finding was made that Medical Capital was conducting a “Ponzi scheme” and a receiver was appointed to liquidate Medical Capital. The plaintiffs in the Signature lawsuit are broker-dealers and principals of broker-dealers that sold Medical Capital investments to their clients. These plaintiffs sought to recover damages from Mayer Hoffman for the losses and expenses they incurred as a result of the Medical Capital financial deceptions and resulting expenses and losses to the plaintiffs. Specific claims asserted and relief requested included fraud-intentional misrepresentation of fact/concealment of fact; negligent misrepresentation; equitable indemnity and declaratory relief. On September 23, 2014, the Plaintiffs entered into a Confidential Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Mayer Hoffman and entities affiliated with Mayer Hoffman to settle the Plaintiffs’ claims against Mayer Hoffman and all affiliated parties of Mayer Hoffman. The parties acknowledged that as between the Company and Mr. Carlson, one hundred percent (100%) of the settlement proceeds paid to them was for the alleged damage or harm to goodwill (and loss of goodwill). The settlement proceeds were received on December 4, 2014 and charged against goodwill carried on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. In a matter related to the Settlement Agreement, on or about October 6, 2014, the Company filed a lawsuit seeking declaratory judgment against its former errors and omission insurance carrier, Arch Specialty Insurance Company (“Arch”), in the Circuit Court of Wisconsin for Milwaukee County (Capital Financial Services, Inc. v. Arch Specialty Insurance Company). On or about November 24, 2014, Arch filed counterclaims against the Company. The actions were for declaratory relief in connection with a dispute over whether Arch was entitled to any portion of the settlement proceeds that the Company received in exchange for dismissing the lawsuit with Mayer Hoffman. On approximately September 14, 2016, the Company and Arch agreed to settle the matter, on October 14, 2016 a Stipulation and Order for Dismissal was filed with the Court, and on October 24, 2016 the Court entered an order dismissing the case, including all claims, counterclaims and third party claims with prejudice with no costs assessed to any party.

Year Ended December 31, 2017, compared with Year Ended December 31, 2016:

Operating Revenues—Total continuing operating revenues for 2017 were $15,569,191, an 11% decrease from $17,558,489 in 2016. The decrease resulted from the net decreases in the income categories described in the paragraphs below. There are no material operating revenues from the Holding Company.

Fee Income—Fee income for 2017 was $1,616,970, a 32% increase from $1,227,001 in 2016. The increase was due to an increase in fees received by the Broker-Dealer Services segment as a result of an increase in assets under management in the Broker-Dealer Services segment’s registered investment advisor. Assets under management as of period ended December 31, 2017 were approximately $279,888,000 compared to approximately $174,006,000 during the same period ended 2016.

The Company earns investment advisory fees in connection with the Broker-Dealer Services segment’s registered investment advisor.

These fees constituted 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2017 compared to 7% in 2016.

Commission Income—Commission income includes all concessions received. The Company pays the registered representatives a percentage of this income as commission expense and retains the balance. Commission income for 2017 was $13,481,827, a 15% decrease from $15,946,037 in 2016. A reduction in the number of registered investment advisors affiliated with the Company between 2017 and 2016 accounted for the decrease in commission income. Future market conditions and fluctuations within the makeup of the Company’s representatives will continue to impact commission levels. Commission revenues constituted 87% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2017 and 91% in 2016.

Other Fee Income—Other fee income for 2017 was $313,462, a 6% decrease from $335,122 in 2016. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in marketing fees from sales on alternative investments. Other fee income constituted 2% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2017 compared to 2% in 2016.

Other Income—Other income for 2017 was $156,932, a 211% increase from $50,329 in 2016. The increase was due primarily to an increase in income received from miscellaneous fees charged related to the Broker-Dealer Services segment. Other income constituted 1% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in 2017 and less than 1% in 2016.

Gross Margin – The Company’s gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2017 was 13.5% and 15% in 2016. The gross margin consists of the difference between continuing operating revenues and commission expense.

Operating Expenses—Total continuing operating expenses for 2017 were $15,571,517, a 13% decrease from $17,877,115 in 2016. The decrease resulted from the net decreases in the expense categories described in the paragraphs below.

Compensation and Benefits—Consolidated compensation and benefits expense for 2017 was $1,458,152 a 2% decrease from $1,490,033 in 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the number of employees. Salaries and wages were $1,265,582 during the period ended December 31, 2017 compared to $1,308,290 during the same period ended in 2016. Insurance premiums were $127,181 during the period ended December 31, 2017 compared to $140,780 during the same period ended in 2016.

Commission Expense—Commission expense for 2017 was $12,739,243, a 15% decrease from $14,987,254 in 2016. The decrease in commissions corresponds with the decrease in concessions received within the broker dealer segment. There was no commission expense for the other segments.

General and Administrative Expenses—Consolidated general and administrative expenses for 2017 were $1,307,222, a 3% decrease from $1,352,032 in 2016. The decrease resulted from net increases and decreases in the Company’s subsidiaries. General and administrative expenses for the Holding Company segment for 2017 were $294,169, a decrease of 22% from $375,580 in 2016. The decrease is due to lower legal and settlement expenses. General and administrative expenses for the Broker-Dealer Services segment for 2017 were $1,013,053, an increase of 4% from $976,452 in 2016. The increase resulted from an increase in settlements paid, due diligence expenses and licensing fees. General and administrative expenses for discontinued operations were $0 for 2017, a 100% decrease from $82,345 in 2016. The decrease is due to the cessation of operating expenses tied to the oil leases within the discontinued operations.

Cash provided by operating activities was $460,675 for the year ended December 31, 2017, as compared to net cash used for operating activities of ($22,311) for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Net cash used for investing activities was $166,424 for the year ended December 31, 2017, as compared to net cash used for investing activities of ($506,404) for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

On December 31, 2017, the Company’s working capital was $803,217 compared to $584,196 in 2016. On December 31, 2017, the Company held $1,794,896 in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $1,368,176 on December 31, 2016. Liquid assets, which consist of cash and cash equivalents, totaled $1,794,896 at December 31, 2017, as compared to $1,368,176 on December 31, 2016. The Company is required to maintain certain levels of cash and liquid securities in its broker-dealer subsidiary to meet regulatory net capital requirements.

The Company has historically relied upon sales of its equity securities and debt instruments, as well as bank loans, for liquidity and growth. Management believes that the Company’s existing liquid assets, along with cash flow from operations, will provide the Company with sufficient resources to meet its ordinary operating expenses during the next twelve months. Significant, unforeseen or extraordinary expenses may require the Company to seek alternative financing sources, including common or preferred share issuance or additional debt financing.

In addition to the liabilities coming due in the next twelve months, management expects that the principal needs for cash may be to acquire additional financial services firms, broker recruitment, and repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock, and service debt. Management also expects to realize increases in consultant expenses as well as increased compliance and legal costs with respect to its broker dealer subsidiary related to regulatory and litigation matters.

OPINION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The consolidated financial statements of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 30, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements, a copy of which is attached.

Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

CAPITAL FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

NOTE 1—NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The nature of operations and significant accounting policies of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., and its Subsidiaries are presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Nature of operations—Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., (the “Company”) is the parent company of Capital Financial Services, Inc. Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. was established in September 1987 as a North Dakota corporation. Headquartered in Minot, North Dakota, the Company is marketing its services throughout the United States. The Company currently has two reporting segments:

Broker-Dealer Services

The Company derives all of its operating revenues from Capital Financial Services, Inc. through investment advisory fees as well as commissions earned from sales of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities. CFS is a full-service brokerage firm. CFS is registered with the SEC as an investment advisor and broker-dealer and also with FINRA as a broker-dealer. CFS specializes in providing investment products and services to independent investment representatives, financial planners, and investment advisors and currently supports approximately 144 investment representatives and investment advisors.

The Company operates under the provision of Paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, accordingly, is exempt from the remaining provisions of that rule. To the best of management’s knowledge and belief the Company met the identified exemption provisions from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 without exception.

Holding Company

The Company encompasses cost associated with ownership of its office building, business development and acquisitions, dispositions of subsidiary entities and results of discontinued operations, dividend income and recognized gains or losses.

Principles of consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., and its subsidiary Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Concentrations—Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. derives all of its revenues and net income from sales of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities through CFS, the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary. The Company’s revenues are largely dependent on the sales activity of registered representatives operating as independent contractors. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and the composition of assets under management impact revenues and results of operations.

Use of estimates—The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued expense obligations. The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of their underlying terms.

F-9

Revenue recognition—Commission income and the related clearing expenses are recorded based on the trade date. The revenue earned from 12b-1 is recognized ratably over the period received. Investment advisory fees are derived from account management and investment advisory services. These fees are determined based on a percentage of the customer’s assets under sponsor management or a flat fee, may be billed monthly or quarterly and recognized ratably over the period received.

Cash and cash equivalents—The Company’s policy is to record all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents. Liquid investments with maturities greater than three months are recorded as investments.

Clearing Deposits—The Company has “Deposit Accounts” with each of its Clearing Firms, as set forth in each of the Clearing Agreements. Upon termination or expiration of these agreements, the Clearing Firms would deliver the balance of these accounts to the Company. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the balance in the Company’s Dain account, Pershing account and NSCC was $35,000, $100,000 and $40,279, respectively. These deposits are included in Cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable—The Company’s receivables consist primarily of concessions related to registered representative activity. Management evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and using historical experience. Accounts receivable are written off when management deems them uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received. The Company does not charge interest on its receivables.

Goodwill—The Company accounts for goodwill under the FASB accounting and reporting standards for goodwill and other intangible assets, which requires that goodwill and indefinite-lived other intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite useful life be assessed annually for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. As of December 31, 2017, the Company no longer has a value for goodwill.

Property and equipment—Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation computed on straight-line and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives of 5-7 years.

Other assets—Other assets include other miscellaneous assets.

Advertising—Costs of advertising and promotion are expensed as incurred. There were no advertising and promotion costs in 2017 or 2016.

Earnings per common share—Basic earnings per common share was computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding of 1,241 in 2016 and 2017. Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for share equivalents arising from unexercised stock warrants, stock options, written put options, and preferred shares.

Income taxes—The Company files a consolidated income tax return with its wholly owned subsidiaries. The amount of deferred tax benefit or expense is recognized as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, utilizing currently enacted tax laws and rates. Deferred tax benefits or expenses are recognized in the financial statements for the changes in deferred tax assets between years. The Company’s policy is to evaluate the likelihood that its uncertain tax positions will prevail upon examination based on the extent to which those positions have substantial support within the Internal Revenue Code and Regulations, Revenue Rulings, court decisions, and other evidence. It is the opinion of management that the Company has no significant uncertain tax positions that would be subject to change upon examination. The federal income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after they were filed.

Severance Escrow—The Company’s severance escrow accounts are restricted cash held in third-party administered escrow accounts for the sole purpose of funding certain employee severance plans established in 2010 by the Company’s Board of Directors for the benefit of and with the purpose of retaining its employees. These funds are held in escrow accounts pursuant to several Involuntary Termination Severance Pay Plans and are not available to the Company for use other than the Involuntary Termination Severance Plan purposes nor is it accessible to creditors of the Company. These restricted cash accounts, totaling $157,911 in 2017 and $258,185 in 2016 are included in Cash and cash equivalents.

F-10

Reclassification—Certain amounts from 2016 have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s net income/(loss), total assets, total liabilities or net equity.

Concentration of Credit Risk—The Company has a concentration of credit risk for cash deposits at various financial institutions. These deposits may at times exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Recent Accounting Developments

ASU 2014-15—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendment requires that in connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-15.

ASU 2016-02 —Leases (Topic 842): In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2019.

ASU 2016-12—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in this update affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 - In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue from contracts with customers and to improve financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. Entities are required to apply the following steps when recognizing revenue under ASU 2014-09: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. This ASU also requires additional disclosures related to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. An entity may apply the amendments by using one of the following two methods: (1) retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented, or (2) a modified retrospective approach, requiring the standard be applied only to the most current period presented, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, includinginterim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. Subsequent to issuing ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued additional standards for the purpose of clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2014-09. The subsequently issued ASUs have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09. The Company plans to adopt the revenue recognition standard as of January 1, 2018. While the Company has not yet identified any material changes in the timing of revenue recognition, its review is ongoing. Upon adoption, we plan to use a modified retrospective approach, with a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings. Our implementation efforts include identifying revenues and costs within the scope of the standard, analyzing contracts and reviewing potential changes to our existing revenue recognition accounting policies. The Company continues to evaluate the potential impacts that these revenue recognition standards may have on our consolidated financial statements, including the incremental costs of obtaining contracts, gross versus net reporting, and additional disclosure requirements. The Company is still evaluating the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations. We are also still evaluating the impact to our disclosures as a result of adopting this new guidance but does not anticipate a material impact to the Company.

F-11

ASU 2016-15—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This amendment becomes effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The pronouncement would impact the presentation of certain items on the statement of cash flows including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims and/or corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. Should the Company have any of the aforementioned items, they would be presented on the statement of cash flows in accordance to ASU 2016-15. Early adoption is permitted, but the entity must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently assessing the requirements of this guidance, but does not anticipate a reporting impact on the Company.

ASU 2016-17—Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control. The amendments in this Update do not change the characteristics of a primary beneficiary in current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Therefore, a primary beneficiary of a VIE has both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If a reporting entity satisfies the first characteristic of a primary beneficiary (such that it is the single decision maker of a VIE), the amendments in this Update require that reporting entity, in determining whether it satisfies the second characteristic of a primary beneficiary, to include all of its direct variable interests in a VIE and,on a proportionate basis, its indirect variable interests in a VIE held through related parties, including related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has determined that there is no impact.

ASU 2016-18—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this Update require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the potential impact.

ASU 2017-01—Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business—inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. In addition, all the inputs and processes that a seller uses in operating a set are not required if market participants can acquire the set and continue to produce outputs, for example, by integrating the acquired set with their own inputs and processes. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company is currently assessing the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the potential impact.

NOTE 2—CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2017 and 2016 consist of checking and savings accounts of $1,461,706 and $934,711, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had severance escrow balances of $157,911 and $258,185, respectively. The Company’s severance escrow accounts are restricted cash held in third-party administered escrow accounts for the sole purpose of funding certain employee severance plans which are included in Cash and cash equivalents. The Company had deposit accounts with clearing firms of $100,000, $35,000 and $40,279 with Pershing, Dain and NSCC, respectively on December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 which are included in Cash and cash equivalents.

NOTE 4—BUSINESS VENTURES

On June 9, 2014, the Company launched a new wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc. (“CNR”), by acquiring 1,000,000 shares, .001 par value common stock of Capital Natural Resources, Inc. for the amount of $100,000. Capital Natural Resources, Inc. sought opportunities related to natural resources in the United States, including petroleum, natural gas and/or other minerals, water resources and land. In the fourth quarter of 2016 the Company determined to dispose of its natural resource assets.

On April 1, 2015, CNR obtained a non-operating working interest in an oil and gas property consisting of three oil and gas leases in Taylor County, Texas for a purchase price of $90,000 paid in cash.

On December 1, 2015, CNR purchased a non-operating working interest in the Kifer Rozella 1, producing oil well, located in the County of Gonzales, state of Texas. The purchase price of $100,000 for CNR’s interest was paid by $50,000 by a promissory note and deed of trust carried by the Seller, Origin Production Company, Inc. Said promissory note has an annual interest rate of 10% per annum and is payable in monthly installment of approximately $1,062 beginning January 1, 2016 with final maturity on December 1, 2020. On February 1, 2016, the Company paid off the promissory note in the amount of approximately $50,847 bringing the balance of the note to zero. Total interest paid on the promissory note was approximately $847.

On July 28, 2015, CNR acquired five year oil and gas leases located in Williams County, North Dakota and two tracts located in Divide County, North Dakota for a combined acquisition cost of $7,676, including lease bonus and prepaid annual rentals. The oil and gas leases were obtained from the State of North Dakota Department of Trust Lands. The leases grant the right to conduct oil and gas operations and extract oil and gas from the property with payment of royalty to the lessor of 3/16 of oil and gas produced.

On August 20, 2015, CNR acquired a five year oil and gas lease located in Lincoln County, Colorado at an initial acquisition cost of $1,652 including the first annual rental payment of $1,600. The oil and gas lease was obtained from the Colorado State Board of Land Commissioners. The lease grants the right to conduct oil and gas operations and extract oil and gas from the property with payment of royalty to the lessor of 1/6 of oil and gas produced.

The oil and gas leases in North Dakota and Colorado are currently non-producing properties and non-operating leases.

The purchase allocation for all four CNR oil and gas lease transactions was based on the estimated fair value of the assets acquired.

On May 19, 2015, CNR acquired interests in coal rights located in Kanawha County, West Virginia with 1,483,451 recoverable tons for a purchase price of $1,275 paid in cash.

F-13

On June 11, 2015, CNR acquired mineral, water rights and surface interests in Hudspeth County, Texas for a purchase price of $83,350 paid in cash.

In the fourth quarter of 2016 the Company determined to dispose of its natural resource segment. In the first quarter of 2017 all of the natural resource assets described above were sold for $66,200 with an effective date of transfer of December 31, 2016 in accordance with industry practice. As of December 31, 2016, CNR met the definition of a discontinued operation.

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NOTE 6—LINE OF CREDIT

On September 12, 2016, the Company obtained a one year term line of credit with American Bank Center in the amount of $500,000. The line of credit had a variable interest rate of 1.509 percent above Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate which was 3.5% as of December 31, 2016. The line of credit expired on September 12, 2017 without being utilized. For the periods ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no outstanding balance against this line of credit.

NOTE 7—INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes is based on earnings before income taxes reported for financial statement purposes and consisted of the following:

F-15

	2017	2016

Current income tax expense:
Federal	$–	$–
State	10,859	10,238
Total current tax expense	$10,859	$10,238
Deferred tax expense:
Federal	$(123,124)	$(162,337)
State	(18,468)	(23,867)
Total deferred tax expense	$(141,592)	$(186,204)

Total provision (benefit) for income tax expense	$(141,592)	$(175,966)

Deferred taxes arise because of different tax treatment between financial statement accounting and tax accounting, known as “temporary differences.” The Company records the tax effect of these temporary differences as “deferred tax assets” (generally items that can be used as a tax deduction or credit in future periods) and “deferred tax liabilities” (generally items for which the Company has received a tax deduction and has not yet been recorded in the consolidated statement of income).

Deferred tax assets (liabilities) were comprised of the following:

	2017	2016

Deferred tax asset:

Management reviews and adjusts those estimates annually based upon the most current information available. However, because the recoverability of deferred taxes is directly dependent upon the future operating results of the Company, actual recoverability of deferred taxes may differ materially from management’s estimates. The Company is aware of the risk that the recorded deferred tax assets may not be realizable. The capital loss generated on the sale of Omega shares is unlikely to be recognized and therefore has not been included in deferred assets. However, management believes that the Company will obtain the full benefit of any net operating loss and other deferred tax assets on the basis of its evaluation of the Company’s anticipated profitability over the period of years that the temporary differences are expected to become tax deductions. It believes that sufficient book and taxable income will be generated to realize the benefit of any net operating loss and other deferred tax assets.

ASC 740 guidance requires that the Company evaluate all monetary tax positions taken, and recognize a liability for any uncertain tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained by the tax authorities. The Company has not recorded any liabilities, or interest and penalties, as of December 31, 2017 related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. There are currently no federal or state income tax examinations underway for these jurisdictions. The tax years 2014-2017 remain open to examination by taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

At December 31, 2017, the Company has approximately $759,802 in federal net operation loss carryforward which begins to expire in 2036.

A reconciliation of the difference between the expected federal tax rate computed at the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 35% and the Company’s effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 is shown in the following table:

	2017	2016

Expected federal tax rate	21%	35%
State income taxes	5%	(1)%
Effect of permanent differences	0%	0%
Change in tax rate and other	0%	(5)%

Effective tax rate	26%	29%

Income tax payable for period ended December 31, 2016 was $10,187 compared to income tax payable of $10,859 during the same period in 2017.

NOTE 8—STOCK WARRANTS, STOCK SPLITS, AND STOCK OPTIONS

The Company has authorized 210 perpetual warrants to certain organizers, directors, officers, employees and shareholders of the Company. All of these warrants were issued between 1987 and 1990 and were accounted for in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. No compensation expense was recorded for these warrants as the exercise price exceeded the market price of the stock at the date of issue. The Company plans to continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for these warrants. These warrants, at the date of issue, allowed for the purchase of shares of stock at $2.00 per share. The exercise prices of these warrants were adjusted to reflect stock splits of 1 for 10,000 in 2013, 2 for 1 in 2002, and 11 for 10 in 1990 and 1989. 0.2 warrants (adjusted for the 1 for 10,000 stock split in 2013 and the 2 for 1 stock split in 2002) were exercised in 1997, leaving an outstanding balance of 210 warrants as of December 31, 2017.

The Company had entered into employment agreements with past employees of the Company. Upon execution of these employment agreements, a one-time granting of stock options took effect. These options are fully vested and have a perpetual life. Each employment contract stated the strike price for which options were granted. In addition, the contracts granted options when the employees reach specified performance goals.

The Company has also issued options to directors as well as various other employees and past employees. The options granted to employees were granted in connection with reaching certain performance goals. These options are considered to be fully vested and have a contractual life of ten years.

The Company plans to issue additional common shares if any of its outstanding options are exercised. There have been no options exercised to date.

The Company has adopted the FASB accounting and standards for fair value recognition provisions for stock-based employee compensation. There were no compensation costs or deferred tax benefits recognized for stock-based compensation awards for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, 421 stock options totaling $1,103,600 had been cancelled.

In June of 2013, shareholders approved by a majority vote a 10,000 to 1 reverse stock split during the annual meeting of shareholders. The reverse stock split became effective on August 14, 2013.

F-18

The subsidiary claims exemption from Rule 15c3-3 under Section 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii), which states that all customer transactions are cleared through another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis. The subsidiary promptly transmits customer funds or securities to its clearing firm. Therefore, a schedule showing the Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Schedule of Information Relating to Possession or Control Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, are not required.

We, as members of management of Capital Financial Services, Inc. (the subsidiary) are responsible for complying with 17 C.F.R §240.17a-5, “Reports to be made by certain brokers and dealers” and complying with 17 C.F.R §240.15c3-3: ((k)(2)(ii)) (the “exemption provisions”). To the best of our knowledge and belief we state the following:

(1) We identified the following provisions of 17 C.F.R §15c3-3(k) under which the subsidiary claimed an exemption from 17C.F.R §240.15c3-3: ((k)(2)(ii)) (the “exemption provisions”), and (2) we met the identified exemption provisions from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 without exception.

NOTE 12 – REGULATORY MATTERS

The broker dealer (“BD”) segment of Capital Financial Services, Inc. is subject to periodic examinations by its regulator, the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). During 2016, the SEC conducted a routine examination of the CFS BD. At the conclusion of its examination, the SEC issued an Examination Report with certain findings, asking the Company’s regulated entity to improve its anti-money laundering program, record additional information on the Company’s transaction blotters, and record transactions on the Company’s transaction blotters that are performed at other companies. On November 28, 2016 the broker dealer made its latest response to the routine examination report.

NOTE 13 – BUILDING PURCHASE

On November 16, 2016, the Company closed on the acquisition of a commercial office building and associated property (the “Office Building”) located at 1801 Burdick Expressway West, Minot, North Dakota from Evanmark Enterprises, LLC, an entity unrelated to the Company. The contract purchase price for the Office Building was $975,000, exclusive of closing costs of $9,091, with all built-in fixtures and other furniture, fixtures and equipment in the building remaining with the property. The Company paid $509,091 at closing toward the purchase price of the Office Building with the remaining $475,000 of the purchase price financed by a commercial real estate loan from American Bank Center (“American Bank”) in the principal amount of $675,000, $475,000 of which is being applied to the purchase price of the Office Building and $200,000 of which was utilized for renovations to the building. Renovations to the building at cost of $221,264 were made in 2017 tobring the total cost of the land building to $1,195,355. The loan will carry a fixed interest rate of 4.879% per annum for five (5) years with the rate to be adjusted at the end of the five (5) year period based on the Wall Street Journal Prime interest rate plus 1.759%. American Bank has a first priority mortgage on the Office Building.

NOTE 15—GOODWILL

The Company had no Goodwill recorded as of December 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value 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. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to measure fair value.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in three broad levels:

● Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access.

● Level 2 inputs are inputs (other than quoted prices included within level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and rely on management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. (The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company’s own data.)

The Company had no assets subject to Fair Value Disclosure measurement calculations at December 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

NOTE 17—EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common stock had been converted to common stock. The following reconciles amounts reported in the financial statements:

Options and warrants to purchase 378 common shares at exercise prices between $3,500 and $14,300 were outstanding at December 31, 2017, but were not included in the computation of earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2017.

NOTE 19—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

There were no related party transactions during the years ended December 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

NOTE 20—LITIGATION

The Company operates in a legal and regulatory environment that exposes it to potentially significant litigation risks. Issuers of certain alternative products sold by the Company are in Bankruptcy or may have other financial difficulties. As a result of such alleged failings of alternative products and the uncertainty of client recovery from the various product issuers, the Company is subject to several legal and/or arbitration proceedings. These proceedings include customer suits, investments alleged to be unsuitable, and bankruptcies and other issues brought by claimants. The Company vigorously contests the allegations of the various proceedings and believes that there are multiple meritorious legal and fact based defenses in these matters. Such cases are subject to many uncertainties, and their outcome is often difficult to predict, including the impact on operations or on the financial statements, particularly in the earlier stages of a case. The Company makes provisions for cases brought against it when, in the opinion of management after seeking legal advice, it is probable that a liability exists, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The current proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, the Company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result from the outcome of these cases; however, results in these cases that are against the interests of the Company could have a severe negative impact on the financial position of the Company. As of December 31, 2017, the Company was a defendant in seven on-going suits or arbitrations as discussed above. On January 19, 2018, the Company settled one of the aforementioned arbitration cases without admission of liability. Payment of $55,249 was made February 14, 2018, and recorded as a liability on December 31, 2017. On February 15, 2018, the Company settled another one of the aforementioned arbitration cases without admission of liability. Payment of $35,000 was made March 19, 2018, and recorded as a liability on December 31, 2017.

F-21

On April 5, 2011, several broker-dealers and their principals/officers, including the Company and John Carlson, President and Chief Compliance Officer, filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of California for Orange County against Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C. (“Mayer Hoffman”) captioned Signature Financial Group, Inc., et al, (“Signature”) v. Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C., et al). The lawsuit arose out of reviews of the financial statements of Medical Capital Holdings, Inc. (“Medical Capital”) by Mayer Hoffman. In June 2009, Medical Capital was sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”), a finding was made that Medical Capital was conducting a “Ponzi scheme” and a receiver was appointed to liquidate Medical Capital. The plaintiffs in the Signature lawsuit are broker-dealers and principals of broker-dealers that sold Medical Capital investments to their clients. These plaintiffs sought to recover damages from Mayer Hoffman for the losses and expenses they incurred as a result of the Medical Capital financial deceptions and resulting expenses and losses to the plaintiffs. Specific claims asserted and relief requested included fraud-intentional misrepresentation of fact/concealment of fact; negligent misrepresentation; equitable indemnity and declaratory relief. On September 23, 2014, the Plaintiffs entered into a Confidential Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Mayer Hoffman and entities affiliated with Mayer Hoffman to settle the Plaintiffs’ claims against Mayer Hoffman and all affiliated parties of Mayer Hoffman. The parties acknowledged that as between the Company and Mr. Carlson, one hundred percent (100%) of the settlement proceeds paid to them was for the alleged damage or harm to goodwill (and loss of goodwill). The settlement proceeds were received on December 4, 2014 and charged against goodwill carried on the consolidated financial statements of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., the parent of the Company. In a matter related to the Settlement Agreement, on or about October 6, 2014, the Company filed a lawsuit seeking declaratory judgment against its former errors and omission insurance carrier, Arch Specialty Insurance Company (“Arch”), in the Circuit Court of Wisconsin for Milwaukee County (Capital Financial Services, Inc. v. Arch Specialty Insurance Company). On or about November 24, 2014, Arch filed counterclaims against the Company. The actions were for declaratory relief in connection with a dispute over whether Arch was entitled to any portion of the settlement proceeds that the Company received in exchange for dismissing the lawsuit with Mayer Hoffman. On approximately September 14, 2016 the Company and Arch agreed to settle the matter, on October 14, 2016 a stipulation and Order for Dismissal was filed with the Court, and on October 24, 2016 the Court entered an order dismissing the case, including all claims, counterclaims and third party claims with prejudice with no costs assessed to any party.

NOTE 21-OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Company organizes its business units into two reportable segments: Broker-Dealer Services and Holding Company. The broker-dealer services segment distributes securities and insurance products to retail investors through a network of registered representatives through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), a Wisconsin corporation. The Holding Company encompasses cost associated with ownership of the Company’s office building, business development and acquisitions, dispositions of subsidiary entities and results of discontinued operations, dividend income and recognized gains or losses.

Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. derives the majority of its revenues and net income from sales of mutual funds, insurance products, and various other securities through Capital Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”), the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary.

The historical results of a former subsidiary, Capital Natural Resources, Inc., which was dissolved in April of 2017, have been reflected as discontinued operations.
