## **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Members and Board of Directors of Weild Capital, LLC

#### **Opinion on the Financial Statement**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Weild Capital, LLC as of December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statement). In our opinion, the statement of financial condition presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Weild Capital, LLC as of December 31, 2020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

### **Basis for Opinion**

This financial statement is the responsibility of Weild Capital, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Weild Capital, LLC's financial statement 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 Weild Capital, 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 statement is 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 statement, 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 evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as Weild Capital, LLC's auditor since 2010.

The Company provides investment banking and consulting services.

#### *Government and Other Regulation*

The Company's business is subject to significant regulation by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. Such regulation includes, among other things, periodic examinations by these regulatory bodies to determine whether the Company is conducting and reporting its operations in accordance with the applicable requirements of these organizations.

#### *Basis of Presentation*

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") as detailed in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").

#### *RevenueRecognition*

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC-606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance requires an entity to follow a five-step model to (a) identify the contracts with the customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determining the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Revenue from contracts with customers includes transaction fees. Revenues from services provided are recognized at the time there is persuasive evidence that the Company's services have been substantially completed pursuant to the terms of an engagement letter, the fee is determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms.

### **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

#### **1. Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

#### *Accounts Receivable*

The Company recognizes revenue from retainer, service and other fees in the period they are earned and are reasonably assured as collectible. Accounts Receivable are reviewed periodically. The Company has not made provisions for bad debt expense or any amount of allowance for uncollectable accounts at year-end since it has determined that there is no need for any write-offs.

#### *Receivables and Contract Balances*

Receivables arise when the Company has an unconditional right to receive payment under a contract with a customer and are derecognized when the cash is received. At December 31, 2020, there were receivables of \$2,724,918 reported in the statement of financial condition.

Contract assets arise when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to the Company's unconditional right to receive payment under a contract with a customer (i.e., unbilled receivable) and are derecognized when either it becomes a receivable or the cash is received. Contract liabilities arise when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligation under the contract and are derecognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company had no contract assets or liabilities at December 31, 2020.

#### *Income Taxes*

The Company does not record a provision for income taxes because the members report their share of the Company's income or loss on their income tax returns. The financial statements reflect the Company's transactions without adjustment, if any, required for income tax purposes.

The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and may file income tax returns in various U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions. Generally, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities for the last three years.

#### *Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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.
