# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Managing Members PCA Capital Securities, LLC

### Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of PCA Capital Securities, LLC as of December 31, 2025, and the related statements of operations and changes in members' 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 PCA Capital Securities, LLC as of December 31, 2025, 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 PCA Capital Securities, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on PCA Capital Securities, 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 PCA Capital Securities, 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 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.

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

### **DECEMBER 31, 2025**

#### **1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS**

PCA Capital Securities, LLC (the "Company"), formed in the State of Delaware on June 30, 2004, is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company operates primarily as an agent that assists issuers in executing Equity Private Placements for which it earns fees. The members share profits and losses equally and each member's liability is limited. The Company continues until such time as it is terminated.

#### **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

#### **a) Basis of Presentation**

The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

#### **b) Use of Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### **c) Revenue Recognition**

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), using the modified retrospective adoption method. Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services. Revenue is recognized based on the following five-step model:

- · Identification of the contract with a customer
- · Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
- · Determination of the transaction price
- · Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
- · Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

#### **Fee Income**

The Company's principal source of revenue is derived from referral fees earned for introducing investors to funds. Each distinct service listed on the agreements with asset managers is considered a performance obligation. The fees earned are allocated to each

These financial statements and schedules are deemed confidential pursuant to subparagraph (e)(3) of Rule 17a-5 of the Securities Exchange Commission.

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

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

#### **DECEMBER 31, 2025**

distinct performance obligations and revenue is recognized when performance obligations are met. The Company's key performance obligation is met when the underlying information from the respective asset managers is received and authenticated. The Company is generally deemed to control the services; accordingly, it presents the revenues gross of the associated third-party costs. The Company evaluates its incremental contract costs related to revenue to determine if such costs are period costs or are capitalized costs. The Company's revenues are earned and recorded at a point in time. There is no set payment terms for the outstanding fees receivable from the related party. The timing between completion of the performance obligation and payment is typically not significant. There is no expected loss of collection, given the affiliated fund has already received the cash.

#### **d) Income Taxes**

No provision has been made for Federal or New York State ("NYS") income tax since the Company is treated like a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code and NYS Partnership tax law whereby its income will be taxed directly to its members.

ASC Topic 740 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a "more likely than not" recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in, the financial statements. In addition, the guidance clarifies the measurement of uncertain tax positions, classification of interest and penalties, and requires additional disclosures on tax reserves.

In accordance with ASC 740, *Income Taxes*, the Company is required to disclose unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions. At December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or liabilities. The Company operates in the United States and in state and local jurisdictions. There are presently no ongoing income tax examinations.

#### **e) Broker Dealer – Single Reportable Segment**

 The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of private placement of investments. The company has identified its President, Gina LaVersa, 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 4), 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 the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The measurement of segment

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

#### **DECEMBER 31, 2025**

assets is reported on the statement of financial condition as total assets. The segment revenue and significant expenses are included in the Company's Statement of Operations.

#### **3. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK**

The Company maintains cash in bank 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 risk.

#### **4. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS**

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and also requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$83,495,which was \$78,495 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's net capital ratio was 0.32 to 1.

#### **5. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES**

There are various direct and indirect risks that could impact the Company, such as a potential global economic slowdown, increase in interest rates, inflationary pressures, geopolitical situations, supply chain disruptions, and more. It is also impossible to predict the effect these will have on longer-term industrial output, potential changes in supply and demand, and its impact on the Company's liquidity, credit, customers, vendors, and counterparties. To help minimize the uncertainty of these items, management continues to explore how best to operate in this environment.

#### **6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded \$1,257,930 of Fee Income from a fund that is managed by an affiliate of the Company. As of December 31, 2025 total receivables from the related party totaled \$1,257,930. The opening balance at December 31, 2024 was zero.

In addition, PCA Capital Securities, LLC did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers; and 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.

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 PCA Capital Securities, LLC's compliance with the exemption provisions.
