George, PLLC Certified Public Accountant #### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Member Sendero Securities, LLC #### Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Sendero Securities, LLC as of December 31, 2024, the related statements of income, changes in member's 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 Sendero Securities, LLC 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 Sendero Securities, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Sendero 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 Sendero 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. #### Auditor's Report on Supplemental Information The supplemental information contained in Schedule 1 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Sendero Securities, LLC's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of Sendero Securities, LLC'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 information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the supplemental information contained in Schedule 1 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. PHILLIP V.

The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sendero Partners, LLC ("Parent"), a Texas limited liability company. The Company is registered as a broker/dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). The Company operates under the exemptive provisions of Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("SEA"), and accordingly, is exempt from the remaining provisions of that Rule. For the Company's other business activities, it is considered a Non-Covered Firm exempt from SEA Rule 15c3-3. The Company does not hold customer funds or securities, carry accounts for customers or carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3). The Company earns placement fees from alternative asset management firms ("Management Firms") for private placement investments of clients of Sendero Wealth Management ("SWM"), an Investment Advisor, who is an affiliate of the Company. The Company does not earn placement fees on all private placement investments. Placement fees earned are dependent on the contractual relationships with the respective Management Firms. The Management Firms are based in the United States. Additionally, the Company may operate as an introducing broker on a fully disclosed basis clearing transactions through its clearing broker/dealer, but during 2024 did not have any customer accounts nor any customer transactions with its clearing broker/dealer. #### Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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. #### Segment Reporting The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of placement fees. The Company has identified its CEO 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, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital {10}------------------------------------------------ ## NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay distributions. 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. Segment financial information is identical to that presented in the accompanying financial statements. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Substantially all the Company's financial asset and liability amounts are short-term in nature and accordingly are recorded at fair value or amounts that approximate fair value. Revenue Recognition: Revenue from contracts with customers includes placement fees. 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 the appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events. Placement fees consist of management fees and performance fees. Services are provided by alternative asset management firms ("Management Firms") on a daily basis. The Company believes the performance obligation on management fees is satisfied over time because the Company is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Management Firms. The Company's management fees are based on a predetermined fixed percentage applied to fees collected by the Management Firms. Management fees are recognized monthly as they relate specifically to the services provided in that period, which are distinct from the services provided in other periods. Management fees are received quarterly in arrears. As additional consideration, the Company receives performance fees that vary based on specified performance measures, for example, when a fund exceeds a specified benchmark or contractual hurdle over a contractual performance period. Performance fees are earned once account returns have exceeded these specified performance measures and are calculated as a percentage of account returns. Performance fees are considered variable consideration as the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the assets at future points in time (at the end of each calendar year) as well as meeting a specified compound hurdle rate, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence. Performance fees are recognized at the end of each calendar year once it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Current Expected Credit Losses: The Company accounts for estimated credit losses on financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures in accordance with FASB ASC 326-20, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. FASB ASC 326-20 {11}------------------------------------------------ NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) requires the Company to estimate expected credit losses over the life of its financial assets and certain off-balance sheet exposures as of the reporting date based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company records the estimate of expected credit losses as an allowance for credit losses. For financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis the allowance for credit losses is reported as a valuation account on the balance sheet that adjusts the asset's amortized cost basis. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are reported in Credit Loss expense. The Company's financial assets are primarily receivables for placement fees. As of December 31, 2024, the Company determined that no allowance for credit losses is necessary. Income Taxes: The Company is a single member limited liability company and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. The taxable income or loss of the Company is included in the partnership income tax return of the Parent. Therefore, federal income taxes are not payable by, or provided for, the Company. The Company is subject to state franchise taxes. # NOTE B – CLEARING BROKER The Company has a clearing agreement with Pershing, LLC ("Pershing") to perform clearing services should the Company open customer accounts at Pershing. The agreement with Pershing requires the Company to maintain a minimum of \$60,000 in an account with Pershing. ## NOTE C – NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1) which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$165,503, which was \$115,503 in excess of the required net capital of \$50,000. The Company's net capital ratio was 0.08 to 1. # NOTE D – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND REVENUE The Company has placement fees due from one Illinois-based Management Firm totaling \$52,000 or 100% of its total receivables, and approximately 22% of its total assets at December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company earned placement fees from this same Management Firm totaling \$203,855, or approximately 98% of total revenue. {12}------------------------------------------------ ## NOTE E – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS/ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY/CONCENTRATION OF REVENUE AND SERVICES The Company is under the control of its Parent and economically dependent on another related entity, SWM, an Investment Advisor. The existence of that control and dependency creates operating results and a financial position significantly different than if the companies were autonomous. Transactions between the Company and SWM were not consummated on terms equivalent to arms-length transactions. All of the Company's placement fees are earned from clients of SWM, and all placement fees during the year were earned from one alternative asset management firm. The Company and SWM have entered into an Office and Administrative Services Agreement as amended and restated most recently on January 1, 2025. This agreement is automatically renewable, unless cancelled by either party. SWM provides the Company with certain office facilities and services under this Agreement, including but not limited to rent, office equipment and supplies, utilities, telephone, and salaries (excluding commissions). SWM may also pay certain expenses on behalf of the Company. SWM allocates a pro-rata portion of such expenses incurred by SWM on behalf of the Company. In making such an allocation, SWM equates the proportional cost of each facility or service with the proportional use or benefit derived by the Company. The expense allocation may change with the respective use and benefit of facilities and services. Expenses allocated to and incurred on behalf of the Company under this Agreement during 2024 totaled \$52,122, of which \$4,344 is payable at December 31, 2024. # NOTE F – CONTINGENCIES There are currently no asserted claims or legal proceedings against the Company, however, the nature of the Company's business subjects it to various claims, regulatory examinations, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The ultimate outcome of any such future action against the Company could have an adverse impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company. #### NOTE G – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 18, 2024, the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued. The Company made a distribution to its Parent of \$50,000 in February 2025. {13}------------------------------------------------ #### **Schedule I** #### **SENDERO SECURITIES, LLC** #### **Supplemental Information Pursuant to Rule 17 a-5** #### **December 31, 2024** | Total member's equity qualified for net capital | \$ | 224,226 | |---------------------------------------------------------------|-----------|---------| | | | | | Deductions and/or charges | | | | Non-allowable assets: | | | | Receivables | | 52,000 | | Prepaid Expenses | | 6,723 | | Total deductions and/or charges | | 58,723 | | Net Capital | \$ | 165,503 | | Aggregate indebtedness | | | | Accrued Expenses | \$ | 8,202 | | Office and Administrative Services Fees Payable-Related Party | | 4,344 | | Total aggregate indebtedness | \$ | 12,546 | | Computation of basic net capital requirement | | | | Minimum net capital required (greater of \$50,000 or | | | | 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness) | \$ | 50,000 | | Net capital in excess of minimum requirement | \$ | 115,503 | | Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital | 0.08 to 1 | | See accompanying Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm {14}------------------------------------------------ # **Schedule I** # **(Continued) SENDERO SECURITIES, LLC Supplemental Information Pursuant to Rule 17a-5 December 31, 2024** # **Reconciliation of Computation of Net Capital** The computation of net capital does not differ from the computation of net capital under Rule 15c3-1 as of December 31, 2024 as filed by Sendero Securities, LLC on Form X-17A-5. Accordingly, no reconciliation is necessary. # **Statement Regarding Changes in Liabilities Subordinated to Claims of General Creditors** No statement is required as no subordinated liabilities existed at any time during the year. # **Statement Regarding Exemption from Reserve Requirements and Possession or Control Requirements** The Company operates pursuant to section (k)(2)(ii) exemptive provisions of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under these exemptive provisions, the Computation of Determination of the Reserve Requirements and Information Relating to the Possession or Control Requirements are not required. We do not accept customer funds or securities and will not have possession of any customer funds or securities in connection with our activities. Therefore, in reliance on footnote 74 to SEC Release 34- 70073 and as discussed in Q&A 8 of the related FAQ issued by SEC staff, the Company will not claim an exemption from SEA Rule 15c3-3 as a "Non-Covered Firm". See accompanying Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm {15}------------------------------------------------ # Phillip V. George, PLLC Certified Public Accountant # REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Member Sendero Securities, LLC We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report, in which (1) Sendero Securities, LLC identified the following provision of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which Sendero Securities, LLC claimed the following exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3- 3:(k)(2)(ii) exemption provision and (2) Sendero Securities, LLC stated that Sendero Securities, LLC met the identified exemption provision throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. The Company is also filing this Exemption Report because the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 are limited to limited to private placement of securities. In addition, the Company did 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 Rule 15c2-4 and/or funds received and promptly transmitted for effecting transactions via subscriptions on a subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to the Company; 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 Sendero Securities, 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 paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5, and related SEC StafpTbequently Asked Questions.
