### A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

### Organization

Gill Capital Partners, LLC (the Company), was incorporated as a broker dealer under the laws of the State of Colorado on August 31, 1983. The Company operates under clearing agreements with other broker dealers, and also provides investment advisory services to clients. The Company is a subsidiary of OBW, LLC (the Parent) which is located in Denver, Colorado.

The Company is a registered broker dealer subject to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Agency. The Company does not hold customer funds or securities.

The Company is the Investment Manager to the Parliament Income Fund, LLC.

### Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

### Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers cash and temporary investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company periodically maintains balances in excess of FDIC and/or SIPC limits. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of these financial institutions in determining the risk associated with these balances. At December 31, 2024, the Company held \$427,697 in cash equivalents in bank and brokerage accounts.

# Receivable from Customers

Receivables from customers consist of balances due from advisory and tax planning fees. At December 31, 2024, the Company's accounts receivable balance was concentrated with one key customer, The Parliament Income Fund, LLC, which accounted for 30% of all accounts receivable. Management has deemed the entire balance to be collectible as of December 31, 2024, and thus has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts.

### Property and Equipment

Furniture, equipment and computer equipment with an acquisition cost below \$5,000 are expensed as they are incurred. Furniture, equipment and computer equipment with an acquisition cost over \$5,000 are recorded at cost and depreciated using straight line methods over estimated useful lives of five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives.

### Financial Advisory Services and Revenue Recognition

The Company offers clients a wide range of investment services that includes money management, comprehensive financial planning, and tax planning and preparation. Clients can choose from an array of services that best fits their situation, each having a separate fee structure. The annual fees for Investment Advisory Services for retail clients are based upon a percentage of assets under management and generally range from 0.50% to 2.00%. Some clients have elected to pay commissions in lieu of advisory fees. In those cases, the client does not pay an annual fee for Investment Advisory Services. Generally, fees for Investment Advisory Services are either billed quarterly in arrears (five days before each quarter end) or quarterly in advance (as soon as

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

# SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

administratively possible after quarter end). Fees are calculated based upon the value plus accrued interest.

The Company is the Investment Manager to the Parliament Income Fund, LLC, a private fund-offunds. The Company earns a management fee calculated at a rate of 1/12 of 1.50% of the closing value of each member's capital account as of the last business day of each month. Management fees are billed quarterly in arrears.

The Company provides investment advisory services on a daily basis. The Company believes the performance obligation for providing advisory services is satisfied over time because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Company. Fee arrangements are based on a percentage applied to the customer's assets under management. Fees are received quarterly and are recognized as revenue at that time as they relate specifically to the services provided in that period, which are distinct from the services provided in other periods. At December 31, 2024, the company had investment management fees receivable of \$365,510.

### Brokerage Services and Revenue Recognition

 The Company buys and sells securities on behalf of its customers. Each time a customer enters into a buy or sell transaction, the Company charges a commission. Commission income is recognized on the closing date of the underlying transaction when evidence of an agreement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured, and the Company's performance obligations have been completed in accordance with the terms of its client agreement. Transactionrelated costs are recorded as expenses in the same reporting period as the associated revenue. At December 31, 2024, the Company had commissions receivable of \$30,153. The Company offers no warranty, guarantee or refunds on any revenue types.

### Segment Reporting

 The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a dually-registered securities broker-dealer and registered investment adviser. The Company's business is comprised of several classes of services, including principal transactions, agency transactions, and investment advisory services. The Company has identified its executive leadership team, which consists of the CCO, President, Secretary, and Director of Research, as the chief operating decision making ("CODM"). The CODM uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominantly in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant policies. No customer comprised more than 1% of the Company's revenue in 2024.

### Advertising

Advertising is expensed as incurred. There were no advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024.

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

### SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

# Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company and treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes. The Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") provides that any income or loss is passed through to the members for federal and state income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has not provided for state income taxes. The Company's Parent files its income tax returns in the U.S. and various state and local jurisdictions. At December 31, 2024, management determined that the Company had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition. This determination will always be subject to ongoing reevaluation as facts and circumstances may require. The Company remains subject to U.S. federal and state income tax audits for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

# 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

# Risks and Uncertainties

In the normal course of business, companies in the broker dealer industry encounter certain economic and regulatory risks. Economic risks include market volatility and interest rate risks. The

Company is subject to these risks to the extent these risks affect customer demand and the Company's revenue.

# B. BORROWINGS

The Company does not have any subordinated borrowings as of December 31, 2024.

# C. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

The Company leased its office facilities from unrelated parties under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired in December 2024. Total rent expense charged to operations under all operating leases was \$143,464 in 2024.

The Company entered into a new lease agreement commencing January 1, 2025 with unrelated parties under a non-cancelable operating lease expiring in July 2032. The lease does not contain options to either extend or terminate the lease. The Company pre-paid rent in the amount of \$14,516. The discount rate used to determine the present value of the operating lease liability and right-of-use asset is 6.00%. This represents the Company's incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement, as the rate implicit in the lease was not readily determinable.

{12}------------------------------------------------

Operating Leases:

| Right-of-use assets       | 1,014,372 |
|---------------------------|-----------|
| Accumulated Amortization  | 0         |
| Right-of-use assets, net  | 1,014,372 |
| Operating Lease Liability | 1,014,372 |

Maturities of lease liabilities at December 31, 2024 were as follows:

| Year                           | Amount    |

# **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Member of Gill Capital Partners, LLC

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report of Brokers and Dealers ("Exemption Report") pursuant to SEC Rule 17a-5, in which (1) Gill Capital Partners, LLC claimed an exemption from § 240.15c3-3 under the provisions of § 240.15c3-3 (k)(2)(ii) and (2) Gill Capital Partners, LLC stated that Gill Capital Partners, LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

Gill Capital Partners, LLC also filed its Exemption Report as a Non-Covered Firm relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 because Gill Capital Partners, LLC acts as an advisor to Parliament Income Fund through which Gill Capital Partners LLC received direct revenue, and Gill Capital Partners, LLC (1) did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, (other than money or other consideration received and promptly transmitted in compliance with paragraph (a) or (b)(2) of Rule 15c2-4 and/or funds received and promptly transmitted for effecting transactions via subscriptions on a subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to Gill Capital Partners, LLC); (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) did not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

Gill Capital Partners, LLC's management is responsible for compliance with the exemption provisions and its statements.

Our 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 Gill Capital Partners, LLC's 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, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are 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) and Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 related to the Non-Covered Firm Provision.
