26,267 | {9}------------------------------------------------ ### Note A - Summary of Organization, Operations, and Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies # Nature of Operations Sable Capital, LLC ("Sable" or "the Company"), a Delaware limited liability company, is a registered broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). Sable primarily operates as a broker-dealer offering investment banking services and as an underwriter of interstate and intrastate offerings and Direct Participation Program offerings. Sable does not hold cash or securities for its customers. The firm operates from the state of Missouri. The financial statements do not contain a statement of changes in liabilities subordinated to claims of general creditors as required by Rule 17a-5 of the SEC, as no such liabilities existed at December 31, 2019 or during the year then ended. # Use of Estimates in Financial Statement Preparation The preparation 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. # Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with a major domestic financial institution. At times, bank deposits may be in excess of federally insured limits. ## Recognition of Revenues On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASC 606"), which creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope. Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over goods or service to a customer. Services approved within the scope of ASC 606 include investment banking activities. The Company is approved to provide advisory services/corporate finance activity including mergers and acquisitions, reorganizations, tender offers, leveraged buyouts, fundraising activity and the pricing of securities to be issued. {10}------------------------------------------------ ### **Note A - Summary of Organization, Operations, and Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies** *(continued)* For 2019, the Company only had revenue from reimbursement of expenses from its registered representatives. #### **Income Taxes** The Company is formed as a single member limited liability company and as such, its operations are included in the Parent Company's tax returns. Earnings and losses of the Company are included in the personal income tax returns of the Parent Company's members. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes. The Company has addressed the provisions of ASC 740-10, *Accounting for Income Taxes.* In that regard, the Company has evaluated its tax positions, expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings and believes that no provision for income taxes is necessary at this time to cover any uncertain tax positions. #### **Prepaid FINRA Fee** As a member ofFINRA, the Company is charged annual registration fees. These fees are paid in advance and amortized monthly. ### **Subsequent Events** The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 15, 2020, the date the financial statements were issued. It was concluded there were no events or transactions occurring during this period that required recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating new accounting standards and will implement as required. ### **Note B - Related Party Transactions** The Company has entered into an expense sharing agreement with its related party for various rent, technology, and other miscellaneous expenditures commensurate with its operations. The term of the expense sharing agreement is monthly until cancelled by either party. The amount payable to the member as of December 31, 2019 for the aforementioned expenses, and included in accounts payable on the statement of financial condition, was \$1,400. Expenses recorded on the Statement of Operations for the year are detailed as follows: | Rent | \$
7,200 | |------------|-------------| | Technology | ,200
1 | | | \$
8.400 | {11}------------------------------------------------ ### **Note B - Related Party Transactions** *(continued)* During the year, the member made \$55,200 in capital contributions to Sable of which \$11,200 is debt forgiveness by its related parties. #### **Note C - Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC's") Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3- l) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which requires maintenance of minimum Net Capital. Under the Rule, the Company is required to maintain minimum Net Capital, as defined, equal to the greater of \$5,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness and the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to Net Capital cannot exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2019, the Company had Net Capital of\$18,928 which was \$13,928 in excess of its required Net Capital of \$5,000. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to Net Capital was 0.39 to 1 at December 31, 2019. The Company is exempt from the provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in that the Company's activities are limited to those set forth in the conditions for exemption appearing in paragraph (k)(2)(i) of the Rule. #### **Note D - Contingencies** The securities industry is subject to extensive regulation under federal, state, and applicable international laws. Sable is also subject to periodic regulatory audits and inspections. Compliance and trading problems that are reported to regulators, such as the SEC, FINRA, and/or the FDIC by dissatisfied customers or others are investigated by such regulator and may, if pursued, result in formal claims being filed against Sable by the customer or disciplinary action being taken against Sable by the regulator that could have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of its operations, or cash flows. At December 31, 2019, management is not aware of any regulatory issues and there were no amounts levied against the Company as a result of regulatory assessments for the year then ended. #### **Note E - Concentrations** The Company had revenue from I source in 2019. # **Note F-Basis of Accounting** These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States. {12}------------------------------------------------ Supplemental Schedules {13}------------------------------------------------ ### **Sable Capital, LLC** ### **Schedule I - Computation of Net Capital under Rule 15c3- 1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission** #### COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL Total member's equity Deductions: Non-allowable assets: Accounts receivable Other assets Net capital before haircuts Haircuts: Total haircuts NET CAPITAL \$ \$ 50,333 24,994 6,411 18,928 18,928 COMPUTATION OF AGGREGATE INDEBTEDNESS Items included in the statement of financial condition: Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities Total aggregate indebtedness COMPUTATION OF BASIC NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT Minimum net capital required Excess net capital Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital 7,340 \$ 7,340 \$ 5,000 \$ 13,928 0.39 to 1 #### **December 31, 2019** There is no difference in the above computation and the Company's net capital as reported in the Company's Part *IJA* (unaudited) FOCUS report as of December 31, 2019. {14}------------------------------------------------ # **Sable Capital, LLC** # **Schedule II - Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements for Brokers and Dealers Pursuant to Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934** The Company qualifies under the exemption provision of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, pursuant to paragraph (k)(2)(i) of the Rule and does not hold customers' monies or securities. {15}------------------------------------------------ # **Sable Capital, LLC** # **Schedule** Ill - **Information Relating to the Possession or Control Requirements under the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c3-3** The Company is exempt from the provisions of Rule l 5c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, pursuant to paragraph (k)(2)(i) of the Rule and does not hold customers' monies or securities. {16}------------------------------------------------ #### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ### To the Members of Sable Capital, LLC We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Sable Capital, LLC's �--- z Annual Exemption Report, in which (1) Sable Capital, LLC identified the following provisions of 17 < C.F.R. § 15c3-3(k) under which Sable Capital, LLC claimed an exemption from 17 C.F .R. 0... §240.15c3-3: k(2)(i) (the "exemption provisions") and (2) Sable Capital, LLC stated that Sableu � Capital, LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without O exception.
