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 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 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 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement to 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. #### Supplemental Information The information contained in Schedules I, 11 and Ill has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the information in Schedules I, Il and III 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 accompanying schedules. In forming our opinion on the accompanying schedules, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented {4}------------------------------------------------ in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240. l 7a-5. In our opinion, the aforementioned supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. We have served as the Company's auditor since 2018.

The Company is a single member limited liability company owned 100% by Edge Healthcare Partners, LLC ("Member"). As a limited liability company, the member's liability is limited to its investment. Use of Estimates: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. Cash: The Company maintains its bank account at a high credit quality financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. Revenue Recognition: Revenue from contracts with customers includes placement and advisory services. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; whether revenue should be presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events. The Company provides placement and advisory services related to capital raising activities and mergers and acquisitions transactions. Revenue from advisory agreements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the agreement is completed (the closing date of transaction) or the contract is cancelled. However, for certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory agreements in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. In some circumstances, significant judgement is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract. Retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing the revenue would be reflected as deferred revenue. The Company recognizes success fee revenue upon completion of a success fee-based transaction as this satisfies the only performance obligation identified by the Company. Income Taxes: The Company's income or loss is reported in the member's S Corporation income tax return. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes. Management does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. {10}------------------------------------------------ #### EHCP CORPORATE FINANCE, LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December31 , 2024 #### Note A - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued Subsequent Events: Subsequent events were evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. #### Note B - Related Party Transactions The Company has an expense sharing agreement with its Member whereby rent and certain operating expenses are paid by the Member on the Company's behalf. These expenses are allocated to the Company based on estimated usage. Allocated expenses amounted to \$5,724 during the year ended December 31 , 2024. The balance due to Member on the accompanying statement of financial condition arose from this expense sharing agreement. Separately, the Member at times pays for operating expenses for the benefit of the Company for which reimbursement is subsequently requested or the amount due is forgiven. There was no balance due to the Member within the accompanying statement of financial condition as of December 31 , 2024, as a result of such payments. Financial condition and results of operations could differ from the amounts in the accompanying financial statements if these transactions did not exist. #### Note C - Net Capital Requirement As a registered broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), the Company is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 ("Net Capital Rule"). Under the Net Capital Rule, the Company is required to maintain minimum net capital of the greater of 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined, or \$5,000. In addition, the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital , both as defined , shall not exceed 15 to 1. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness change from day-to-day, but as of December 31 , 2024, the Company had net capital of \$20,185 which exceeded the minimum net capital requirement of \$5,000 by \$15,185. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.19 to 1.00. #### Note D- Contingencies The Company is subject to litigation in the normal course of business. The Company has no litigation in progress at December 31 , 2024. #### Note E - Segment Reporting The Company's chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer. The Company has one reportable segment: investment banking. The accounting policies of the investment banking segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The chief operating decision maker assesses performance for the investment banking segment and decides how to allocate resources based on the Company's net loss as is reported within the accompanying statement of operations. The measure of segment assets is reported within the accompanying statement of financial condition as total assets. The Company does not have intra-entity sales or transfers. {11}------------------------------------------------ #### EHCP CORPORATE FINANCE, LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December31 , 2024 Note F - Net Loss The Company incurred a loss for 2024 and was dependent upon capital contributions from its Member for working capital and net capital. The Company's Member has represented that it intends to continue to make capital contributions as needed, to ensure the Company's survival through at least one year subsequent to the date of the report of the independent registered public accounting firm. Management expects the Company to continue as a going concern and the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis without adjustments for realization in the event that the Company ceases to continue as a going concern. {12}------------------------------------------------ # EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC # Schedule I Computation of Net Capital Pursuant to Rule 15c3-1 Of The Securities and Exchange Commission As of December 31 , 2024 | Computation of Net Capital | | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------| | Total member's equity | \$

The Company does not hold customer funds or securities. > Schedule Ill Information Relating To The Possession Or Control Requirements Under Rule 15c3-3 Of The Securities And Exchange Commission As of December 31 , 2024 The Company does not claim exemption from SEA Rule 15c3-3 in reliance upon Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release. The Company does not hold customer funds or securities. {14}------------------------------------------------ #### EXEMPTION REPORT SEA RULE 17a-5(d)(4) January 16, 2025 Rubio CPA, PC 3500 Lenox Road Suite 1500 Atlanta, GA 30326 To Whom It May Concern: We, as members of management of EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC (the "Company ") are responsible for complying with Rule 17a-5, "Reports to be made by certain brokers and dealers". We have performed an evaluation of the Company's compliance with the requirements of Rule 17a-5 and the exemption provisions in Rule 15c3-3(k) (the "exemption provisions ") and of the 2013 Release adopting amendments to Rule 17a-5, including Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release. We have determined that the Company does not meet any of the exemption conditions of paragraph (k) of Rule 15c3-3 (i.e., paragraph (k)(l), (k)(2)(i) or (k)(2)(ii) but also (1) does not directly or indirectly receive, hold or otherwise 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 Exchange Act Rule 15c2-4 ("Rule 15c2-4"); (2) does not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) does not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) and therefore is covered by Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release. Accordingly, based on our evaluation we make the following statements to the best knowledge and belief of the Company: - 1. We reviewed the provisions of Rule §15c3-3 and related guidance stated in the SEC Staff s FAQ and confirmed that the Company relied on Footnote 7 4 of the 2013 Release. - 2. The Company conducted business activities involving selling tax shelters or limited partnerships in primary distributions, private placement of securities and mergers and acquisitions throughout the year ended December 31, 2024, without exception . - 3. The Company met the identified conditions for such reliance throughout the period January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024 without exception. Signed:~~ Name: J. Todd Watkins Title: CEO • {15}------------------------------------------------ # **RUBIO CPA, PC** CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS 3500 Lenox Road NE Suite 1500 Atlanta, GA 30326 770-690-8995 ## **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** To the Member of EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC We have reviewed management's statements included in the accompanying Broker Dealers Annual Exemption Report in which (1) EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC did not claim an exemption from Rule 15c3-3 in reliance upon Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release, (2) EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC stated that it conducted business activities involving selling tax shelters or limited partnerships in primary distributions, private placements of securities and mergers and acquisitions throughout the year ended December 31 , 2024, without exception, and (3) EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC stated that EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC met the identified conditions for such reliance throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC'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 EHCP Corporate Finance, LLC'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 provisions set forth in Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release.
