We have performed a compilation engagement in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services promulgated by the Accounting and Review Services Committee of the AICPA.

Accordingly, we do not express an opinion, a conclusion, nor provide any form of assurance on these financial statements.
The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended April 30, 2022 was derived from financial statements that were audited by another accounting firm. Their report, dated June 24, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon, but they have not performed any auditing procedures since that date.
A statement of cash flows for the six months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021 has not been presented. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that such a statement be presented when financial statements purport to present financial position and results of operations.
We are not independent with respect to Tridan Corp.

Notes to Financial Statements
October 31, 2022 and 2021
1. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by Tridan Corp. (the “Company”), a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company is considered an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies.
Acquisition and Valuation of Investments
Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased/sold (trade date) and interest on securities acquired/sold is included in income from/to the settlement date. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which is equivalent to fair value.
Fair values for the Company’s investments in municipal obligations have been determined based on the bid price of the obligation. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the board of directors. There were no securities valued by the board of directors, for which quotations were not readily available, as of October 31, 2022 and 2021.
Amortization of Bond Premium or Discount
In determining investment income, bond premiums or discounts are amortized over the remaining term of the obligation based on the earlier of the call date or the maturity date of the applicable bond.
Income Taxes
It is the Company’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. The Company also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no income tax provision would be required.
The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

1. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
Income Taxes (continued)
The Company identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, New York State and New York City where the Company makes significant investments. Generally, the Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by Federal, state and local authorities for a period of three years from the later of the due date of such returns or the actual date the returns were filed. Interest income from municipal investments is exempt from Federal and state income taxes.
Interest income from municipal investments is exempt from Federal and state income taxes.
Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends to shareholders from net investment income, if any, are paid quarterly. Distributions of capital gains, if any, are made at least annually, and as required to comply with Federal excise tax requirements. Dividends to shareholders are determined in accordance with tax regulations and are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and investments. The Company maintains all of its cash on deposit in one financial institution.
As of October 31, 2022 and 2021, there was $557,442 and $1,088,691 of cash held in in excess of federally insured limits, respectively. The value of the Company’s investments may be subject to possible risks involving, among other things, the continued creditworthiness of the various state and local government agencies and public financing authorities underlying its investments.

Fair value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts for accrued interest receivables and accrued liabilities reflected in the financial statements approximate fair value because of the short maturities of these items. The Company accounts for its investments in municipal obligations in accordance with the accounting guidance for investment companies (FASB ASC 946). See Note 1 “Acquisition and Valuation of Investments” for a description of the valuation methodology, which is unchanged as of October 31, 2022 and 2021. FASB ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The valuation techniques required by FASB ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions.
The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| | |
Level 1 – | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a company has the ability to access. |
| |
Level 2 – | | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, yield curves, default rates, and similar data. |
| |
Level 3 – | | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available. |
The Company’s investments in municipal obligations are all considered Level 2 instruments.
The following table presents the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value as of October 31, 2022 and 2021:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted Prices for Identical Instruments in Non-active Markets (Level 2) October 31, | | | |
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | |
| | | | | | |
Investments in municipal obligations | | $ | 32,885,025 | | | | 36,007,428 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Instruments classified as Level 2 are valued using industry-standard models or other valuation methodologies calibrated to observable market inputs.

Fair value of Financial Instruments (continued)
These models consider various assumptions regarding the security or securities with similar characteristics, such as trade data, bid price or spread, two sided markets, quotes, benchmark curves, and market data feeds, as well as other measurements.

The Company has a share redemption plan applicable to 18,919 shares for both periods, of outstanding common stock, at October 31, 2022 and 2021. The plan permits eligible shareholders or their estates to have their shares redeemed upon reaching age 65 or upon death.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY MANAGEMENT
At its meeting on June 16, 2022, the Board of Directors unanimously approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement with J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. (“Morgan”) for the period July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 after considering a variety of material factors and conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the board’s approval, as discussed below.
J.P. Morgan, Investment Advisor
Throughout the year, the directors received and analyzed a substantial quantity of comprehensive information and written materials, including ongoing analysis of Tridan’s existing portfolio and Morgan’s recommendations in light of its forecasts for the economy, employment trends, business conditions, federal rate moves, interest trends including comparisons between tax-exempt and taxable bonds, appropriate maturities, quality, yields, diversification, etc. The directors subject Morgan’s portfolio management to scrutiny at each board meeting, including examination of transactions completed since the prior meeting and an overview of the entire portfolio. Written materials received by the board of directors before and during each meeting include reports, statistics, charts, graphs, performance records, comparisons with other funds and the like. Morgan’s representatives have been questioned at great length regarding Morgan’s views, recommendations and performance.
As requested by Tridan’s corporate counsel and pursuant to Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, Morgan submits its audited financial statements and detailed information. All materials furnished to each director detail Morgan’s business, personnel and operations, advisory services, compensation matters, portfolio strategy, investment performance, sources of information, fee comparisons, compliance programs, and other matters of significance to the relationship between Tridan and its investment adviser. The directors reviewed all materials and discussed the same at length. The directors discussed their own views on Morgan’s previous performance and relationship with Tridan, with particular attention to investment performance, the nature, extent and quality of service and fees.
Investment Performance
Based on their review, the board of directors all agreed that Tridan’s relative investment performance has been satisfactory.

At each meeting, the board of directors received, reviewed and discussed with Morgan’s representatives’ various data showing Tridan’s portfolio characteristics, including market value, average duration, credit quality, coupon, estimated annual income and yield statistics, and breakdown information regarding duration, credit, and investment sectors. Morgan’s quarterly presentation also includes the portfolio performance over three months, year to date, one year, three years and five years, compared with the JPMorgan NY Tax Free Bond Fund, Sanford Bernstein NY Muni Fund, and Barclays 1-17 Year NY Muni Bond Index.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Service
The board of directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Morgan to Tridan have been appropriate and beneficial.
The board’s analysis of the nature, extent and quality of Morgan’s services to Tridan is based on knowledge gained over time from discussions with management and during board meetings. The directors reviewed materials contained in Morgan’s response to Tridan’s 15(c) Questionnaire and Morgan’s Form ADV under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. These materials contained much other information including, the qualifications, education and experience of Morgan’s personnel involved in rendering those services.
As Tridan’s investment adviser, Morgan manages the investment of Tridan’s assets, including purchases and sales of securities, and arranges for the periodic transfer of cash required to pay expenses and make distributions to shareholders. Morgan also provides clerical and book-keeping services and prepares and issues periodic reports and statements. Its affiliate maintains custody of Tridan’s securities and provides access thereto upon request. The board considered Morgan’s performance of these administrative and support services, including monitoring adherence to Tridan’s investment policies, guidelines and restrictions, Morgan’s responsiveness to requests by Tridan’s counsel for periodic information, reports and certifications required for compliance with securities laws and regulations, and maintaining and monitoring their respective compliance programs in light of today’s extensive regulatory requirements.
Fees
Under its Investment Advisory Agreement with Morgan, Tridan pays an annual fee computed and payable quarterly equal to 0.25% of its net assets under management (2 basis points). The agreement requires Morgan to bear all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under the agreement without any reimbursement from Tridan.

In addition, the annual charge to Tridan for maintaining custody of the company’s securities and for custodial-related services rendered by Morgan and its affiliates is 0.02% of the assets held in the custody account (2 basis points).
In light of the nature, extent and quality of the services received by Tridan from Morgan and its affiliated companies, and comparing the management fees charged by Morgan to other fixed-income investment companies managed by it, all of which are many times larger than Tridan, the Board considers Morgan’s management fee to Tridan to be reasonable.
After full consideration of the above factors, the Board concluded unanimously that renewal of the investment advisory agreement with J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. was in the best interest of Tridan and its shareholders.
DIRECTORS
At the last annual meeting on July 19, 2022, the incumbent directors, all of whom are named below, were all reelected to serve as directors until the next annual meeting of shareholders, or until their successors are elected and have qualified.
