# **1. ORGANIZATION**

Evergreen Advisors Capital, LLC (the "Company") is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Evergreen Advisors (The "Parent"). The Company was formed on June 18, 2012, as a limited liability company in accordance with the laws of the state of Maryland. The Company provides investment banking for middle-market companies that include buy and sell side mergers, acquisitions, and capital raises.

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

### **Basis of Presentation**

The accounting policies and reporting practices of the Company conform to the practices in the broker-dealer industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. ("U.S. GAAP").

#### **Government and Other Regulation**

The Company's business is subject to significant regulation by various governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations, including the SEC and FINRA. 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. As a registered broker dealer, the Company is subject to the SEC's net capital rules (Rule 15c3-1), which require that the Company maintain a minimum net capital, as defined. The Company will operate in accordance with Footnote 74 to SEC Release 34-70073.

#### **Cash and Cash Equivalents**

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments having original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company may, during the ordinary course of business, maintain account balances with banks in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts, and management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

#### **Accounts Receivable**

Accounts receivable are stated as net of allowances for credit losses. The allowance is estimated from historical performance and projection of trends. After evaluating the collectability of receivables, the Company deemed that there was no allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2025. No interest is charged on past due balances and balances greater than 90 days past due are reviewed by management. Receivables are written off when management determines they are uncollectible. Accounts receivables consist of non-refundable advisory fees charged to customers for services rendered.

The Company has evaluated the impact of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326- 20, specifically as it relates to receivables from its customers. The Company's receivables include amounts owed for investment banking services. The Company continually reviews the credit quality of its customers.

Based on this credit loss standard, the Company has not recorded any material credit losses in its financial statements and does not expect the standard to have a material impact on the Company's operations in the future.

# **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)**

### **Use of Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at December 31, 2025. The actual outcome of the estimates could differ from the estimates made in the preparation of the statements.

#### **Income Taxes**

No provisions have been made for income taxes since the Company is a single member limited liability company and is considered a disregarded entity for income tax purposes. The sole member is liable for income taxes based on the Company's taxable income.

The Company recognizes and measures tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax return based on their technical merit and assesses the likelihood that the positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances, and information available at the end of each period. Interest and penalties on tax liabilities, if any, would be recorded in expenses.

## **4. RELATED PARTIES**

The cost of such space and services are allocated between the entities. Any amounts owed are due on demand and bear no interest. At December 31, 2025, \$16,512 was owed to the "Parent" for allocated services. Such an amount is included in accrued liabilities on the Statement of Financial Condition.

# **8. SEGMENT REPORTING**

The Company operates in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of underwriting and financial advisory services. Refer to primary financial statements for further information as the single operating segment is the entire entity of the Company. 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 (see Note 6), 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 Company derived 68% of its total revenues from five external customers in 2025.
