#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of LRB Public Finance Advisors, Inc.

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Rule 15c3-3 Exemption Report pursuant to SEC Rule 17a-5, in which (1) LRB Public Finance Advisors, Inc. (the Company) did not claim an exemption under paragraph (k) of 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3, and (2) the Company is filing this Exemption Report relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 because during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did engage in the following types of business: provided services as a Municipal Advisor fiduciary to local governments and non-profits desiring to issue bonds to secure financing for various projects; provided services as a consultant to local governments and non-profits such as user rate studies, impact fee analysis, financial revenue and expenditure forecasting. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company 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; did not carry accounts of or for customers; and did not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3).

LRB Public Finance Advisors, Inc.'s management is responsible for compliance with the provisions contemplated by Footnote 74 of SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions 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 LRB Public Finance Advisors, Inc.'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 upon the Company's business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5, and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions.

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

# Organization

 LRB Public Finance Advisors, Inc. (formerly known as Lewis Young Robertson & Burningham, Inc.) (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Utah on July 6, 1995. The Company provides financial and consulting services to local governmental and other entities.

# Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (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.

 The financial statements include some amounts that are based on management's best estimates and judgements. The most significant estimates relate to allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable, depreciation and taxes. These estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant.

#### Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited because many diverse local government agencies make up the Company's customer base, thus spreading the trade credit risk. The Company controls credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits, and monitoring procedures.

 The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) up to certain limits. At December 31, 2025, the Company had one balance in excess of NCUA insured limits by \$305,674. At December 31 2024, the Company had one balance in excess of NCUA insured limits by \$240,472. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

{8}------------------------------------------------

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature.

# Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers deposits that can be redeemed on demand and investments that have original maturities of less than three months, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.

#### Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for credit losses and are generally unsecured. Accounts receivable are ordinarily due thirty days after the issuance of the invoice. Credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus accounts receivable do not bear interest although a finance charge may be applied to such receivables that are more than thirty days past due.

The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses based on an estimate of expected credit losses for financial instruments, primarily accounts receivable. Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information from internal and external sources relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Expected credit losses are estimated by evaluating trends in historical write-off experience and applying historical loss ratios to pools of financial assets with similar risk characteristics. The Company has determined that it has one pool for the purpose of calculating its historical credit loss experience. Additional allowance for credit losses is established for financial asset balances with specific customers where collectability has been determined to be improbable based on customer specific facts and circumstances.

{9}------------------------------------------------

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Property and Equipment and Depreciation Methods

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated methods) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:

| Computer equipment     | 5 years |
|------------------------|---------|
| Furniture and fixtures | 7 years |
| Leasehold improvements | 5 years |

#### Leases

 Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) asset represents the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability represents the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU asset and lease liability are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. If a leasing arrangement does not provide an implicit rate, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For operating leases with a term of one year or less, the Company does not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset on the financial statements.

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

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Income Taxes

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in states in which it operates. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred income taxes are classified as noncurrent. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation allowance is established for any deferred tax assets for which realization is not more likely than not.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, management evaluates uncertain tax positions taken by the Company. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits. Tax positions are recognized only when it is more likely than not (likelihood of greater than 50%), based on technical merits, that the positions will be sustained upon examination. Reserves are established if it is believed certain positions may be challenged and potentially disallowed. If facts and circumstances change, reserves are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. If interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were to occur, they would also be recognized in the provision for income taxes.

#### Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 whereby the amount of revenue recognized for any goods or services reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company derives its revenues from consulting services, municipal advisory services, and administrative services. A description of each of the Company's disaggregated revenue streams, as presented in the statements of income, is as follows:

#### *Consulting Fees*

The Company provides consulting and advisory services to entities for financial plans, economic development and strategic plans, market feasibility studies, impact fee studies, cost of service analyses, RDA consulting services, transportation studies and similar services.

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

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

# Revenue Recognition (continued)

The Company believes the performance obligation for providing such consulting services is satisfied over time because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Company. The Company has an enforceable right to payment for the consulting services provided to date. Progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured based on labor hours expended.

# *Municipal Advisory Fees*

 The Company provides municipal advisory services related to the application and issuance of municipal bonds.

The Company believes that the performance obligation related to municipal advisory services is achieved at the point in time when the customer is awarded the municipal bond. At this time the Company does not need to take any further significant actions in order for the customer to obtain control and benefit of the bond proceeds. If the bond issuance fails, the Company will not be paid for the municipal advisory services.

# *Administrative Fees*

The Company provides administrative services such as RDA management, special assessment areas, and other similar services.

The Company believes that the performance obligation related to administrative services is achieved at various intervals based on the terms of the contract (i.e. monthly, quarterly, annually, etc.). At these intervals the Company has completed any significant actions in order for the customer to benefit from the agreement.

The Company's revenues, results of operations, and cash flows are affected by a wide variety of factors, including general economic conditions, geographical regions of its customers, the type of customer, the type of contract, and contract duration. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's revenues were primarily derived from customers in the western United States and were executed under short-term contracts.

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

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

# Contingencies

 Certain conditions may exist which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company's management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company, or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company's legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company's financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they arise from guarantees, in which guarantees would be disclosed.

# Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

Beginning in 2024 annual reporting, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting, that was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). This new standard requires an enhanced disclosure of significant segment expenses on an annual basis. Upon adoption, the guidance was applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

Beginning January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes - Improvements, that was issued by the FASB. This new standard requires enhanced disclosures regarding specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation table and the amount of income taxes paid per major jurisdiction. This standard did not have a material effect on the financial statements. Upon adoption, the guidance was applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

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

# Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). This update requires public business entities to provide enhanced disclosures disaggregating certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, including specified natural expense categories. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial statements.

# Operating Segments and Related Disclosures

The Company is managed as one reportable operating segment, which is comprised of several classes of services including municipal advisory fees, consulting fees and administrative fees, which are offered to governmental and other entities. The operating segment information aligns with how the Company's Chief Operating Decision Makers ("CODM") reviews and manages the business. The CODM is comprised of the three Principals / Owners of the Company. Financial information and annual operating plans and forecasts are prepared and reviewed by the CODM at the Company level. The CODM assesses performance for the operating segment and decides how to better allocate resources based on net income that is reported on the Statements of Income. The Company's objective in making resource allocation decisions is to optimize the financial results. The accounting policies of the Company's operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies herein. For single reportable segment-level financial information, total assets, and significant non-cash transactions, see the Statements of Financial Condition, Statements of Income and Note 7 to the Financial Statements.

#### Reclassification Note

Certain amounts in the 2024 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the 2025 financial statements.
