Financial Group, LLC is a party to litigation commenced on August 7, 2019, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York under the caption VA Management, LP v. Odeon Capital Group LLC; Janney Montgomery Scott LLC; C&Co/PrinceRidge LLC; and JVB Financial Group LLC. The plaintiff, VA Management, LP (f/k/a Visium Asset Management, LP) (“Visium”), alleges that the defendants, as third-party broker-dealers, aided and abetted Visium’s portfolio managers’ breaches of their fiduciary duties by assisting in carrying out a fraudulent “mismarking scheme.” Visium is seeking in excess of $1 billion in damages from the defendants including disgorgement of the compensation paid to Visium’s portfolio managers, restitution of and damages for the investigative and legal fees, administrative wind down costs, and regulatory penalties paid by Visium as a result of the “mismarking scheme,” direct and consequential damages for the destruction of Visium’s business, including lost profits and lost enterprise value, and attorneys’ fees and costs.

On April 29, 2020, the Court issued a ruling denying the motions to dismiss filed by each of the defendants. The Company intends to defend the action vigorously. In addition to the matter set forth above, the Company is a party to various routine legal proceedings and regulatory inquiries arising out of the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Management believes that the results of these routine legal proceedings and regulatory matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, or on the Company’s operations and cash flows. However, the Company cannot estimate the legal fees and expenses to be incurred in connection with these routine matters and, therefore, is unable to determine whether these future legal fees and expenses will have a material impact on the Company’s operations and cash flows. It is the Company’s policy to expense legal and other fees as incurred.
