#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Member's of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC

#### Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC as of December 31, 2022, the related statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC as of December 31, 2022, 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 Waveland Capital Partners, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Waveland Capital Partners, LLC'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 Waveland Capital Partners, LLC 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 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.

#### Auditor's Report on Supplemental Information

The Schedules I, II and III have been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying 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. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the Schedules I, Il and III are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

We have served as Waveland Capital Partners, LLC's auditor since 2018.

## **Note 1: GENERAL AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** *General*

Waveland Capital Partners, LLC ("the Company") was organized on August 8, 1995 under the name Mercer Global Securities, LLC. In September 2001 the Company was sold to United Equity Holdings, LLC who changed its name to Waveland Securities, LLC. On March 28, 2005, Waveland Securities , LLC changed its name to Waveland Capital Partners, LLC. The Company is a registered broker/dealer in securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC").

The Company is a wholly‐owned subsidiary of Waveland Capital Group (the "Parent"), and is affiliated through common ownership with Waveland Management Group ("WMG").

Under its membership agreement with FINRA and pursuant to Rule 15c3‐3(k)(2)(ii), the Company no longer conducts any trading activities. Accordingly, the Company is exempt from the requirement of Rule 15c3‐3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 pertaining to the possession or control of customer assets and reserve requirements.

The Company operates as the Managing Broker Dealer for Regulation D Offerings for which it receives a fee as proceeds are raised for the fund.

## *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

For purposes relating to 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.

Commissions receivable are stated at face amount with no allowance for doubtful accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is not considered necessary because probable uncollectible accounts are immaterial.

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

Commissions from the sale of private placements are recognized on the trade date which is when the company has no further continuing obligations.

The Company has evaluated events subsequent to the balance sheet date for items requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements. The evaluation was performed through March 16, 2023, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this review, the Company has determined that there were no events which took place that would have a material impact on its financial statements.

## **Note 2: INCOME TAXES**

The Company is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, in accordance with single member limited liability company rules. All tax effects of the Company's income or loss are passed through to the Parent. Therefore, no provision or liability for Federal Income Taxes is included in these financial statements.

The Company is subject to a minimum franchise tax. As of December 31, 2022, the income tax provision consists of the following:

| State taxes                | \$<br>1,100 |
|----------------------------|-------------|
| Total income tax provision | \$<br>1,100 |

State income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related to differences between the financial and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities, if any, represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). No amounts have been recognized or disclosed related to uncertain tax positions. The Company would record interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as interest expense and other operating expense, respectively.

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

The Company is required to file income tax returns in state tax jurisdictions. The Company's tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities in the jurisdictions in which it operates in accordance with the normal statutes of limitations in the applicable jurisdiction. The statute of limitations for state purposes is generally three years, but may exceed this limitation depending upon the jurisdiction involved. Returns that were filed within the applicable statute remain subject to examination. As of December 31, 2022, the state has not proposed any adjustment to the Company's tax position.

## **Note 3: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION**

The Company is affilitated through common ownership with an enity who serves as the general partner of the fund. The Company conducts certain related party transactions with the Parent and WMG. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company total allocated expense is \$1,188,930, and was charged \$1,080,285 as of December 31, 2022 by WMG, which serves as an administrative cost center. These reimbursements are made in accordance with an expense reimbursement agreement. Included in this charge are allocated rent (\$32,250), payroll expenses (\$1,020,998), and other costs (\$27,037) for the year ended December 31, 2022. The affilliated entity is owed \$108,645 at December 31, 2022.

## **Note 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

The Company has no commitments and contingencies as of the year ended December 31, 2022.

## **Note 5: GUARANTEES**

FASB ASC 460, Guarantees, requires the Company to disclose information about its obligations under certain guarantee arrangements. FASB ASC 460 defines guarantees as contracts and indemnification agreements that contingently require a guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying factor (such as an interest or foreign exchange rate, security or commodity price, an index or the occurrence or nonoccurrence of a specified event) related to an asset, liability or equity security of the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on another entity's failure to perform under an agreement as well as indirect guarantees of indebtedness of others.

The company has issued no guarantees at December 31, 2022 or during the year then ended.

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

### **Note 6: LEASE COMMITMENT**

The Company lease space was terminated February 28, 2022, before which the lease was on a month to month in the amount of \$525 a month. The lease expense was \$1,050 relating to the office lease for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016‐02, Leases – (Topic 842). ASU 2016‐02 will require the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet to the rights and obligations created by lease agreements, including for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP, along with the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. The Company has elected not to apply the recognition requirements of Topic 842 relating to its short‐term office lease and instead has elected to recognize the lease payments as lease cost on a straight line basis over the lease term.

### **Note 7: NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS**

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC rule 15c3‐1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. Rule 15c3‐1 also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness change day to day, but on December 31, 2022, the Company had net capital of \$186,697 which was \$179,133 in excess of its required net capital of \$7,563; and the Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness (\$113,451) to net capital was .61 to 1, which is less than the 15 to 1 maximum allowed.

### **Note 8: COMPANY CONDITION**

The Company has a loss for the year ended December 31, 2022, and has received capital contribution from its Parent for working capital. The Company Parent has agreed to provide capital contributions to the Company as necessary for it to continue operations and to maintain compliance with minimum net capital requirements.

Management expects the Company to continue as a going concern and the accompanied financial statements have been prepared on a going‐concern basis without adjustment for realization in the event the Company ceases to continue as a going concern.

#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Member's of Waveland Capital Partners, LLC

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption, in which (1) Waveland Capital Partners, LLC identified the following provision(s) of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which Waveland Capital Partners, LLC claimed the following exemption(s) from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3: (k)(2)(ii) and (2) Waveland Capital Partners, LLC stated that Waveland Capital Partners, LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

The Company is also filing this Exemption Report because the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 are limited to effecting securities transactions via subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to the Company, receiving transaction for referring securities transactions to other broker-dealers. In addition, the Company did not directly 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 the Company; did not carry accounts of or for customers; and did not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

Waveland 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 Waveland 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(s) (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company's other 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.
