In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for 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 the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company'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 the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws 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 everall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. #### Supplemental Information The supplemental information (Schedule I - Computation of Net Capital Pursuant to Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Schedule II and III - Statement Regarding Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission) (the "supplemental information) has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The supplemental information is the Company'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 including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). #### NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES #### Basis of Accounting The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. #### Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. #### Revenue Recognition – Investment Advisory Fees The Company entered into a fee sharing agreement with a related party for fees on specific investor accounts (see Note 4). Revenue for investment advisory fees is recognized as work is performed and amounts are earned. #### Income Taxes The Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes therefore, no federal income tax expense has been recorded in the financial statements. Taxable results are passed through to the members of the Company. All current and future tax assessments are attributable to those members, and there is no income tax expense reflected in the statement of operations. There are no tax penalties recognized this year. The financial statements remain subject to U.S federal tax examination for tax years 2021-2023. #### Date of Management Review The Company evaluates events and transactions occurring subsequent to the date of the financial statements for matters requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements consider events through the date the financial statements were issued. #### Adoption of new accounting standards The FASB issued (ASU) 2023-07, "Segment Reporting" (Topic 280) which increased disclosure requirements regarding a public entity's reportable segments effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. ASU 2023-07 requires incremental line-item disclosures about each reportable segment's expenses as well as profit and losses. The Company has evaluated the guidance thereunder and has determined that the Company operates as one operating segment. For further discussion refer to Footnote 6, Reportable Segments. {11}------------------------------------------------ HWJ Capital Partners II, LLC Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2024 #### NOTE 3 – NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT The Company, as a registered broker-dealer and as a member of FINRA, must comply with the Net Capital rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company has a capital requirement of the greater of \$5,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness. The Company had net capital as computed under Rule 15c3-1 of \$243,259 which is above the \$5,000 amount required to be maintained at December 31, 2024. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital is 3.37%. #### NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTIES The Company's members also own Harch Capital Management, LLC ("HCM") (a Florida Limited Liability Company). HCM provides the use of employees, office space, secretarial and services to the Company in accordance with an office sharing agreement. The Company's office sharing expenses were \$3,936 for the year ended December 31, 2024 of which \$311 was paid for rent. The agreement is for a period of twelve months and shall be extended for successive one-year periods unless canceled by either party, in writing, upon thirty days' prior written notice. Operating results of the Company might be significantly different if the companies were autonomous. The Company was owed \$5,157 from HCM, net, as of December 31, 2024. At its full discretion, HCM pays the Company \$15,000 quarterly. The term of this Agreement shall be perpetual unless earlier terminated in writing by both HCM and the Company. The Company was owed \$15,000 from HCM at December 31, 2024. #### NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company maintains a Fully Disclosed Clearing Agreement (the "Agreement") with Axos Clearing, LLC (previously named COR Clearing, LLC.) The initial term of the Agreement was effective through May 6, 2013 and calls for automatic renewals for successive periods equal to the initial term unless terminated by either party within ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial or renewal term. Under the Agreement, early termination fees apply, including the monthly fees due on the remaining term of the Agreement. Refer to Note 3 with respect to FINRA Regulatory requirements. The Company has a clearing agreement with Axos Clearing, LLC and is required to maintain a minimum deposit of \$50,000. As of December 31, 2024, the balance with Axos Clearing, LLC is \$50,000. As of December 31, 2024, there is a receivable from Axos Clearing LLC of \$81,904. #### NOTE 6 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK The Company is engaged in various trading and brokerage activities in which counterparties primarily include broker-dealers, banks, and other financial institutions. In the event counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty or issuer of the instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty. {12}------------------------------------------------ ## HWJ Capital Partners II, LLC Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2024 #### NOTE 6 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) The Company maintains a bank account at one financial institution of which the balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Corporation ("FDIC") up to \$250,000. The Company also maintains accounts held at a brokerage firm of which the balance is insured by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") up to \$500,000 for securities and \$250,000 for cash and cash equivalents. All of the Company's revenues are earned from the Investment Fee Sharing Agreement with HCM. Refer to Note 4 with respect to related parties. #### NOTE 7 – REPORTABLE SEGMENTS The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer whose sole function is to facilitate the trading activities of a related entity. The Company has identified it's Managing Member as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who 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 (see Note 3), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay dividends. 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 profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting principles. #### NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company evaluates events and transactions occurring subsequent to the date of the financial statements for matters requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements consider events through the date the financial statements were issued. {13}------------------------------------------------ # SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION {14}------------------------------------------------ ## HWJ Capital Partners II, LLC Schedule I - Computation and Reconciliation of Net Capital Under Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission #### December 31, 2024 | Net capital: | | |----------------------------------------------------|---------------| | Total members' equity | \$

The Company'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 the Company'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 conditions set forth in paragraph(k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
