#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

#### To: The Stockholder **E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc.**

#### **Opinion on the Financial Statements**

I have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc. as of December 31, 2020, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholder's equity and cash flows for the year then ended, that are filed pursuant to Rule 17a-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### **Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc.'s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc.'s financial statements based on my audit. I am a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and I am required to be independent with respect to E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc. in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. My audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. My audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.

{4}------------------------------------------------

#### **Supplemental Information**

The supplemental information is the responsibility of E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc.'s management. My audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming my opinion on the supplemental information, I evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In my opinion, the Schedule I, Computation of Net Capital Under SEC Rule 15c3-1, Schedule II, Computation for Identification of Reserve Requirements Under SEC Rule 15c3-3 (*exemption*) and Schedule III, Information Relating to Possession or Control Requirements Under SEC Rule 15c3-3 (*exemption)* is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

I have served as E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co., Inc.'s auditor since 2020.

Notes to Financial Statements Year Ended December 31, 2020

#### 1 **Organization and Nature of Business**

E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc.(the Company) is a New York corporation conducting business as an investment advisor and a securities broker dealer. The Company holds no customer funds or securities and does not participate in the underwriting of Securities. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority - FINRA and SIPC.

The Company, under Rule 15c3-3(K)(2)(ii), is exempt from the reserve and possession or control requirements of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not cqarry or clear customer accounts.

## **2 Significant Accounting Policies**

## *(a) Basis of Presentation*

The financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") unless otherwise disclosed.

#### *(b) Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### *( c) Statement of Cash Flows*

For purposes of the statement of cash flows the Company has defined cash equivalents as highly liquid investments, with original maturities of less than three months, that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business. The company has adopted the indirect method of presenting the statement of cash flows in accordance with current authoritative pronouncements.

#### *(d) Accounts Receivable*

The Company establishes an allowance for uncollectible trade accounts receivable based on managements evaluation of the collectibility of outstanding accounts receivable. Management has evaluated accounts receivable at December 31, 2020 and believes they are all collectible. Accounts receivable are not collateralized.

{10}------------------------------------------------

Notes to Financial Statements

Year Ended December 31, 2020

#### (*e) Revenue Recognition*

The Company earns commissions from executing and clearing customer transactions in stock and bond markets. Commissions and related clearing expenses are recorded on a trade-date basis as securities transactions occur.

The Company recognizes revenue from advisory fees in the period earned in accordance with Topic 606, that is when the transaction has been completed and all performance obligations have been satisfied.

## (f) Income Taxes

The Company, with the consent of its shareholder, has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be treated as an S Corporation. In lieu of corporation income taxes, the shareholders of an S Corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial statements. The Company's tax returns and the amount of income or loss allocable to each shareholder are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. In the event of an examination of the Company's tax return, the tax liability of the shareholders could be changed if an adjustment in the Company's income or loss is ultimately determined by the taxing authorities.

Certain transactions of the Company's may be subject to accounting methods for federal and state income tax purposes which differ significantly from the accounting methods used in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly, the net income or loss of the Company and the resulting balances in the shareholders' capital accounts reported for federal and state income tax purposes may differ from the balances reported for those same items in these financial statements.

The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under that guidance the Company assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of the financial reporting period. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available, or when an event occurs that requires a change.

Management has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions which require adjustment or disclosure on the financial statements at December 31, 2020 and there are no open tax years prior to 2016. In addition, no income tax related penalties or interest have been recorded for the year ended December 31, 2020.

#### *(g) Advertising and Marketing*

Advertising and marketing costs (if any)are expensed as incurred.

#### *(h) General and Administrative Expenses*

General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

{11}------------------------------------------------

Notes to Financial Statements

Year Ended December 31, 2020

#### *(i) Subsequent Events*

The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the statement of financial condition date through the date of March 8, 2021 which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Based on this evaluation, the Company has determined that no subsequent events have occurred which require disclosure in or adjustment to the financial statements.

## (j*) Fair Value Hierarchy*

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 into three broad levels:

 Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability either directly or indirectly.

 Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable for the assets or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability..

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining the fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

For further discussion of fair value, see "Note 7 Fair Value"

{13}------------------------------------------------

Notes to Financial Statements Year Ended December 31, 2020

## **7 Fair Value**

Cash, receivables, accounts payable and other current liabilities are reflected in the financial statements at carrying value which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

## **8 Commitments and Contingencies**

Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c3-1(e)(2) the Company may not authorize distributions to its stockholder if such distributions cause the Company's net capital to fall below 120% of the Company's minimum net capital requirement. As of December 31, 2020 the Company was not in violation of this requirement.

The Company had no lease or equipment rental commitments (except as disclosed in Note 6 above), no underwriting commitments, no contingent liabilities, and had not been named as a defendant in any lawsuit at December 31, 2020 or during the year then ended.

At December 31, 2020 the Company had implemented such policies and procedures.

## **10 COVID 19**

In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This pandemic event has resulted in significant business disruption and uncertainty in both global and U.S. markets. While management believes the Company is in an appropriate position to weather the potential short-term effects of these world-wide events, the direct and long-term impact to the Company and its financial statements is undetermined at this time.

## REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

## To: The Stockholder **E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc.**

I have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Schedule I Computation of Net Capital under Rule 15c3-1, Schedule II Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 (Exemption), in which (1) E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc**.** identified the following provisions of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc. claimed an exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3: under—(k)(2)(ii), (the "exemption provisions") and (2) E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc**.** stated that E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc**.** met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception and Schedule III Information for Possession or Control Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 (Exemption). E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc**.** management is responsible for compliance with the exemption provisions and its statements.

My review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about E. Magnus Oppenheim & Co. Inc**.** compliance with the exemption provisions. A review is substantially less in scope than an examination, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on management's statements. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion.

Based on my review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's statements referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the provisions set forth in paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
