#### **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

#### FOR THE **YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31 , 2020**

## Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. General Description of the Company

Campbell Financial Services, LLC (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of Campbell & Company LP (CCLP), is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The Company engages in the marketing and selling of products sponsored by Campbell affiliates and the wholesaling of mutual funds. The Company is registered and licensed as a broker-dealer in all U.S. states and territories, with the exception of Guam.

B. Method of Reporting

The Company's financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification), is the single source of U.S. GAAP.

C. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities al the dale of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

D. Revenue Recognition

Under ASC 606 marketing service fees are recognized when earned, based on the terms of the underlying agreement.

E. Income Taxes

The Company is considered a disregarded entity under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company's taxable income ''flows-through" to CCLP and is subject to CCLP's U.S. federal and state taxation status. The preparation and filing of U.S. federal and state tax returns are performed byCCLP under a consolidated tax filing . Accordingly, the Company does not provide for income tax expense or income tax liability on its net income. The Company does not owe any taxes to its affiliates.

The Company applies the provisions of Codification Topic 7 40, Income Taxes , which prescribe the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity before being measured and recognized in the financial statements. This accounting standard requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likelythan-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions with respect to tax at the Company level not deemed to meet the "more-likely-than-not'' threshold would be recorded as an expense in the current year. The Company has elected an accounting policy to classify interest and penalties, if any, as interest expense. The Company has concluded that there is no tax expense or interest expense related to uncertainties in income tax positions for the year ended December 31, 2020. The 2017 through 2020 tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.

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

**NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** 

#### **FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31 , 2020**

## Note 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has entered into an agreement with CCLP to promote the sales of units of affiliated commodity pools to investors of such commodity pools, and to continuously service such units. As part of this agreement, the Company receives a monthly marketing services fee from CCLP, which represents the entire portion of its revenue. For the year ended December 31 , 2020, the Company earned \$434,400 related to the marketing service fees from CCLP.

The Company has entered into a Services and Operations Agreement with CCLP pursuant to which Affiliate Services (as defined in the Services and Operations Agreement), such as management, administration, office space and other services, will be provided by CCLP to the Company and the Company will be charged by CCLP the reasonable value of the services rendered. The allocation for these expenses in 2020 is broken down as follows: office services \$19,416, rent \$10,200, salaries \$212,308, and accounting services \$1 ,500. Charges for such Affiliate Services are reflected in the applicable expense caption in the Company's statement of operations. The Company is responsible for certain direct expenses such as annual audit, legal and regulatory fees.

The marketing service fees received from CCLP and the expenses paid to CCLP related to the Services and Operations Agreement would not necessarily be the same if these arrangements were conducted with an unrelated party.

## Note 3. INDEMNIFICATIONS

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. The Company expects the risk of any future obligation under these indemnifications to be remote.

## Note 4. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks related to cash.

#### Note 5. 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 minimum net capital and is required to maintain a ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital (both as defined under such provisions), not to exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2020, the Company had net capital of \$307,154, which was \$302,154 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.042 to 1.

## Note 6. DISTRIBUTIONS

The Company did not pay any distributions to CCLP in 2020.

## **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Member of Campbell Financial Services, LLC

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report in which (1) Campbell Financial Services, LLC (the "Company") stated that:

- 1. The Company does not claim an exemption under paragraph (k) of 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3;
- 2. The Company is filing an Exemption Report relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release o. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240. J 7a-5 because the Company limits its business activities exclusively to selling securities of one issuer or associated issuers. Selling limited partnerships in primary distributions, selling managed futures mutual funds, and private placement securities throughout the most recent fiscal year; and
- 3. The Company (1) did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otheiwise 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 Rul l 5c2-4; (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) did not carry proprietary accounts of broker-dealers (as defined in 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

The Company's management is responsible for 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 the Company 's compliance with the exemption provisions and that the Company's other business activities were limited to selling securities of one issuer or associated issuers, selling limited partnerships in primary distributions, selling managed futures mutual funds, and private placement securities and (1) did not directly or indirectly receive, bold, or otheiwise 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 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c2-4 and/or funds received and promptly transmitted for effecting transactions via subscriptions on a subscription-way basis where the funds are payable to th issuer or its agent and not to the Company); (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) did not carry proprietary accounts of broker-dealers (as defined in 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. 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 17 C.F.R. § 240. l 7a-5.

This Exemption Report was prepared as required by 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5(d)(l) and (4). To the best of its knowledge and belief, the Company states the following:

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 the Company limits its business activities exclusively to selling securities of one issuer or associated issuers, selling limited partnerships in primary distributions, selling managed futures mutual funds, and private placement of securities. We do not accept customer funds or securities and will not have possession of any customer funds or securities in connection with our activities.

In January 2021 , CFS submitted a Membership Agreement Change Request to FINRA requesting that the firm's membership agreement be updated to reflect CFS under the "Non-Covered Firm" provision pursuant to footnote 74 to SEC Release 34-70073 and as discussed in Q&A 8 of the related FAQ issued by the SEC staff. That request was granted.

Campbell Financial Services, LLC

I, Gabriel Morris and Thomas Lloyd, affirm that, to my best knowledge and belief, the Exemption Report is true and correct.
