#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

#### Organization

Reynolds Advisory Partners, LLC (the Company) is a Colorado Limited Liability Company specializing in mergers and acquisitions, capital raising and related financial advisory services focused on middle market clients nationwide.

The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is also a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company operates pursuant to paragraph (k)(2)(B) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act") and does not carry customer accounts or clear customer transactions, nor does it plan to hold any customers' securities or funds. As a result, the Company is exempt from the remaining provisions and requirements of Rule 15c3-3 of the Act. Under this exemption, Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements and Information Relating to Possession or Control Requirements are not required.

#### Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers cash in banks and investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

#### Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent engagement fees billed and not collected less an allowance for doubtful accounts, if applicable. No allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary at the time of December 31, 2020.

#### Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated principally by the straight-line method using a useful life of 3 to 5 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major betterments are capitalized.

{11}------------------------------------------------

### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

#### Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-19. "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." This ASU, as amended, provides comprehensive guidance on the recognition of revenue from customers arising from the transfer of goods and services, guidance for accounting for certain contract costs, and new disclosures. The Company adopted this ASU on January 2019 using a modified retrospective approach. The ASU did not have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company's sources of revenue are transactions fees and retainer revenues earned from various M&A and financial advisory engagements.

Transaction fees related to mergers, acquisitions, finders, and financing fees are recognized upon closing of the related transaction. These are reflected as "Advisory services" in the accompanying statement of operations.

The Company recognizes retainer revenue in accordance with ASC 606 which requires retainers and work fees to be recognized consistent with distinct performance obligations agreed to with clients. In the Company's engagements these specific obligations relate to specific milestones that occur in the "Marketing Preparation Phase" of our M&A engagements. Those milestones are normally as follows: (1) initial RAP due diligence of the client (meeting with the client and reviewing requested written documents); (2) industry research on the client's industry; (3) draft Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM); (4) preparation of prospective buyers list; and (5) confirmation of expected valuation range for the target company (client), following completion of due diligence and associated industry research. When all of these specific milestones have been reached, then the Marketing Preparation Phase of our assignment is finished, and we have satisfied all of the distinct performance obligations associated with our retainer and work fees. It is necessary for RAP management to use our judgement in determining when the above-described performance obligations have been met. However, at end of the current fiscal period, we have completed all of the performance obligations for the retainers and work fees charged for all of our current active assignments.

#### Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred.

{12}------------------------------------------------

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

#### Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments. The Company restricts temporary cash investments to financial institutions with high credit standing. Such temporary cash investments are often in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

#### Income Taxes

The Company made an election to be taxed as a SUBCHAPTER S CORPORATION under the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, there is no provision for income taxes included in the accompanying financial statements except for state franchise taxes and fees. All income and expenses are reported by the Company's members on their respective tax returns.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FASB ASC Topic 740-10 establishes that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. The Company's returns from 2015 to 2019 are subject to review by the Internal Revenue Service.

Interest and penalties associated with the Company's tax positions are reflected as interest expense in the financial statements. There were no interest or penalties incurred during the year ended December 31, 2020.

{13}------------------------------------------------

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

#### Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). This ASU, amended, provides comprehensive guidance on accounting for operating and financing leases by recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities. The company adopted this ASU in January 2019.

The Company has elected, for all underlying classes of assets, to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less at lease commencement, and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. We recognize lease cost associated with our short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Additionally, the Company has a financing lease that was immaterial to the financial statements as a whole. Therefore, no ROU asset or lease liability has been recorded.

### Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to measure fair value. The Company does not hold any securities as of December 31, 2020.

{14}------------------------------------------------

### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### B. Subsequent Events

Management has reviewed subsequent events through the date of the auditor's report, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

#### C. Significant Clients

The Company derived 88% of their revenue from three key clients during the year ended December 31, 2020. The makeup of the Company's client base will vary from year to year. Accordingly, an annual concentration in revenue from the same clients is remote.

#### D. Statutory Requirements

Pursuant to Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is required to maintain minimum net capital as defined under such rule. As of December 31, 2020, the Company's net capital was \$106,234 and the required net capital was \$5,000.

The Company is exempt from certain provisions of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, accordingly, is not required to maintain a "Special Account for Exclusive Benefit of Customers". Such exemption is in accordance with Rule 15c3-3.

#### Retirement Plan ய்

The Company provides a 401(k) profit sharing plan which covers substantially all employees. Participating employees may elect to contribute, on a tax-deferred basis, a portion of their compensation in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company makes a matching contribution of 6% of compensation. In 2020, the Company made contributions in the amount of \$22,978.

{15}------------------------------------------------

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### F. Commitment

## Office Space Lease Commitment

On June 15, 2020, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space. The lease expires May 31, 2021. The Company incurred rent expense of \$41,941 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Future minimum lease payments under the terms of this lease are: \$20,100.00.

## Office Printer Lease Commitment

On August 1, 2019 the Company entered into a lease to own agreement with Xerox Financial Services, LLC for the use of a printer. The lease is \$219/mo for 60 months starting on August 13,2019.

The Company incurred lease expenses of \$3,170 for the year ended 12/31/2020. Future minimum lease payments under the terms of this lease are:

|------|---------|
| 2022 | \$2,631 |
| 2023 | \$2,631 |
| 2024 | \$1,644 |

## Payroll Protection Loan

The Company received a Payroll Protection Loan from Citizens Business Bank on May 9, 2020 in the amount of \$72,000. While the terms of the one-year loan expiring on May 9, 2021 include a Fixed Rate of 1%, the Company has met all forgiveness requirements and has deemed this loan to be forgiven. For purposes of Net Capital computation, the balance of the loan is excluded from the Company's Aggregate Indebtedness (Al).

{16}------------------------------------------------

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### G. Financial Instruments, Off-Balance Sheet Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for such items when a liability is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In the opinion of management, the results of such pending litigation and claims will not have a material effect on the results of operations, the financial position, or the cash flows of the Company.

COVID-19 has presented substantial risks to companies. Management continually assesses any risks related to COVID-19 and their impact on the operations of the Company. The Company has not identified any material impacts on operations.

#### H. Compliance with SEA Rule 15c3-3

র বিষয়ক বিশ্বকাপ করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে না করে না করে না করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর করে আর কর

The Firm will not claim an exemption from SEA Rule 15c3-3, 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 Firm has represented that it does not and will not, (1) directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, (2) does not and will not carry accounts of or for customers and (3) does not and will not carry PAB accounts. During the calendar year 2020 the company did not (1) directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers and (3) did not carry PAB accounts.

### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Members of Reynolds Advisory Partners, LLC

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Rule 15c3-3 Exemption Report pursuant to SEC Rule 17a-5, in which (1) Reynolds Advisory Partners LLC (the Company) did not claim an exemption under paragraph (k) of 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3, and (2) the Company is filing this Exemption Report relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 because the Company limits its business activities exclusively capital raising and advisory services in accordance with the requirements of paragraphs (a) or (b)(2) of Rule 15c2-4. 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.

Reynolds Advisory Partners, 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 the Company'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 upon the Company's 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 Staff Frequently Asked Questions.
