In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Woodlands Securities Corporation as of March 31, 2020, and the results of its 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 Woodlands Securities Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Woodlands Securities Corporation's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to Woodlands Securities Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we 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. Our 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. Our 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. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. ### **Supplemental Information** The Computation of Net Capital Under Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Commission and the Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements and Information Relating to Possession or Control of Securities Under 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission have been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Woodlands Securities Corporation's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of Woodlands Securities Corporation's management. Our 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 our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.l?a-5. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. $$ \langle \uparrow \rangle\_{\mathfrak{P}^{\omega} \hookrightarrow \lambda^{\omega}} \preccorner \preccorner \langle \downarrow\_{\mathfrak{P}^{\omega} \hookrightarrow \star^{\omega}} \llcorner \preccorner \varphi \llcorner \preccorner \varphi \llcorner \preccorner \varphi \llcorner \preccorner \varphi $$ HARPER & PEARSON COMPANY, P.C.

Accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying those principles, which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows are summarized below: Description of Business - The Company is located in the Woodlands, Texas and was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on April 26, 1988. The Company has claimed an exemption from the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) Rule 15c3-3 under section (k)(2)(ii). The Company is registered as a Broker-Dealer with the SEC, and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Statement Presentation - The unclassified statement of financial condition is presented in accordance with industry standards. Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Revenue and Expenses - Commissions on Securities transactions and all related revenue and ' expense are recorded in the accounts on a settlement date basis. Total commissions revenue for 2020 was approximately \$954,000. Included in that amount were related party commissions of approximately \$388,000 (see Note F). 12b-1 fee revenue and expenses related to securities transactions executed but not yet settled as of March 31 are not considered by management to be material to the Company's financial statements. Income Taxes - The provision for federal income taxes is recognized as of the date of the financial statements, utilizing currently enacted tax laws and rates. Texas margin tax is accrued and included as a component of general and administrative expenses. Texas margin tax was \$2,124 for the year ended March 31, 2020. The Company believes that all significant tax positions utilized by the Company will more likely than not be sustained upon examination. As of March 31, 2020, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are from the fiscal year 2017 forward (with limited exceptions). Tax penalties and interest, if any, would be accrued as incurred and would be classified as tax expense in the statement of income. Fixed Assets and Depreciation - Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of five to seven years. Estimates - The preparation of financial statements 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. Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 22, 2020, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic occurring, economic uncertainties have arisen which are likely to negatively affect the Company's operations. However, the related financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. {10}------------------------------------------------ ### NOTE A BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) On April 16, 2020, the Company signed a Promissory Note for a short-term loan made pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (''CARES Act"). The loan principal is \$98,352, carries a fixed interest rate of 1.0% per annum and is payable two years from date of funding. Loan proceeds will be used to fund the payment of salaries and benefits. No additional subsequent events occurred, which require adjustment or disclosure to the financials at March 31, 2020. #### NOTE B DEPOSITS WITH CLEARING ORGANIZATION As of March 31, 2020, Woodlands Securities Corporation has an agreement with Hilltop Securities, Inc., a clearing organization, whereby the organization performs clearing functions for securities transactions with customers and brokers and dealers. Related to these transactions, the Company is required to maintain cash on deposit in a clearing account with Hilltop Securities, Inc. in the amount of \$6,000. Hilltop Securities, Inc. is located in Dallas, Texas and is a member of the FINRA, Midwest Stock Exchange, New York Exchange, Inc., American Stock Exchange, Inc., Pacific Stock Exchange and is registered with the SEC. According to the Clearing Agreement between Hilltop Securities, Inc. and the Company, Hilltop Securities, Inc. is responsible for executing, clearing and settling securities transactions on a fully disclosed basis for the accounts of the Company. #### NOTEC RETIREMENT PLAN The Company provides employees the opportunity to enroll in a Simple IRA plan for retirement. The Simple IRA assets are fully vested and may be withdrawn at any time subject to taxes and penalties. The participants are generally required to begin taking minimum distributions from their Simple IRA upon attainment of age seventy and a half (70 1/2) in accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations. The Company matches the participating employees' contributions up to three percent (3%) of the employees' compensation. The Company contributed \$22,143 to the participating employees' Simple IRAs during the year ended March 31, 2020. #### NOTED NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS Pursuant to the net capital provisions of Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is required to maintain a minimum net capital, as defined under such provisions. Net capital and the related net capital ratio may fluctuate on a daily basis. At March 31, 2020, the Company had net capital of \$166,322 and a net capital requirement of \$5,000. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .28 to 1 at March 31, 2020. The Securities Exchange Commission permits a ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital for the Company at this time of no greater than 15 to 1. #### NOTE E CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist {11}------------------------------------------------ #### NOTE E CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) principally of trade receivables for commissions and fees and cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. Deposits with these financial institutions may exceed the amount of federal deposit insurance provided on such deposits; however, these deposits typically may be redeemed upon demand and therefore, bear minimal risk. In monitoring this credit risk, the Company periodically evaluates the stability of the financial institutions. Generally, no collateral or other security is required to support receivables for commissions and fees. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at March 31, 2020 as management believes all amounts are collectible. For the year ended March 31, 2020, revenue received from related parties represented 70% of the Company's total revenue (See Note F). The Company is engaged in various trading and brokerage activities in which the counter parties primarily include financial institutions and individuals. In the event a counter party does not fulfill its obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the credit worthiness of the counter party or issuer of the instrument. #### NOTE F RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company is affiliated with Woodlands Asset Management, Inc. (WAMI), Woodlands Financial Services, Inc. (WFSI) and MLM Consulting LLC through common ownership. The Company has an office and administrative services agreement with WAMI to provide certain expense sharing and administrative functions for the benefit of WAMI. In 2020, the Company received \$1,048,284 in office and administrative services income from WAMI for services provided. The Company also received commissions of \$388,007 from WFSI for private offerings and \$16,263 for reimbursement of expenses which is included in other income. The Company paid MLM Consulting LLC \$12,000 in consulting expense during the year ended March 31, 2020. A note receivable has been recorded due from the stockholder in the amount of \$52,970. Interest is 2.05%, payable annually and principal is due on demand. #### NOTEG COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: As of March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any outstanding commitments or contingencies, guarantees or related obligations, or claims or assessments that were required to be disclosed. {12}------------------------------------------------ ### **WOODLANDS SECURITIES CORPORATION SCHEDULE** I **COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL UNDER RULE 15C3-1 OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION MARCH 31, 2020** | NET CAPITAL | | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------| | Total stockholder's equity qualified for net capital | \$

This Exemption Report was prepared as required by 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5(d)(1) and (4). To the best of its knowledge and belief, the Company states the following: (1) The Company claimed an exemption from 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3 under the following provisions of 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3 (k) (2)(ii) (2) The Company met the identified exemption provisions in 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3(k)(2)(ii) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. ### **Woodlands Securities Corporation** I, Morris Monroe, swear (or affirm) that, to my best knowledge and belief, this Exemption Report is true and correct. May 22, 2020 {15}------------------------------------------------ ![](_page_15_Picture_0.jpeg) ### **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** To Management of Woodlands Securities Corporation We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report, in which (1) Woodlands Securities Corporation identified the following provisions of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which Woodlands Securities Corporation claimed an exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3, specifically 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3 (k)(2)(ii) (the exemption provisions), and (2) Woodlands Securities Corporation stated that Woodlands Securities Corporation met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. Woodlands Securities Corporation'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 Woodlands Securities Corporation'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) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The procedures we performed and our findings are as follows: - 1) Compared the listed assessment payments in Form SIPC-7 with respective cash disbursement records entries, noting no differences; - 2) Compared the amounts reported on the Annual Audited Report Form X-17A-5 Part III (FOCUS report) for the year ended March 31, 2020 with the amounts reported in Form SIPC-7 for the year ended March 31, 2020, noting no differences; - 3) Compared any adjustments reported in Form SIPC-7 with supporting schedules and working papers, noting no differences; - 4) Recalculated the arithmetical accuracy of the calculations reflected in Form SIPC-7 and in the related schedules and working papers including the general ledger and quarterly FOCUS reports supporting the adjustments, noting no differences; and - 5) Compared the amount of any overpayment applied to the current assessment with the Form SIPC-7 on which it was originally computed. There were no applicable overpayments for the year ended March 31, 2020. We were not engaged to, and did not conduct an examination, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion on compliance with the applicable instructions of the Form SIPC-7. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to you.
