In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### *Basis for Opinion* This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement 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 statement is 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 of the financial statement, 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 statement. 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 statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. # *CBIZ CPA~ P.C.* We have served as the Company's auditor since 2023.

Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies # Nature of business Accord Capital Partners LLC (the "Company") is a Delaware limited liability company formed on October 31, 2012. The Company was a single member limited liability company wholly owned by Milagro Group LLC ("Milagro"). On May 13, 2014, Accord Group Holdings LLC ("AGH") acquired Milagro's 100% interest in the Company. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a fully disclosed broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company provides private placement and advisory services. The Company receives support from AGH, an affiliated company, for such items as personnel salaries and benefits, accounting and information technology services, office equipment, and other miscellaneous overhead expenses (see Note 4). The financial results of the Company may have been significantly different absent this relationship with the affiliated company. ## Accounts receivable Accounts receivable consists of consulting and advisory fees receivable as well as sales commissions receivable from clients. The Company uses the allowance method to account for credit losses. Based on historical write-offs, overall economic conditions, and an evaluation of the current aging status of its receivables, the Company has established an allowance for credit losses at a level considered to be adequate to cover anticipated lifetime credit losses on outstanding client receivables. Accounts are monitored by management on an ongoing basis and are written off by the Company when it has been determined that all available collection avenues have been exhausted. Recoveries are included in income as realized. As of December 31, 2024, management did not consider an allowance for credit losses necessary as all balances were considered collectible. ## Cash The Company maintains cash in a federally insured banking institution. #### Income taxes The Company is a single-member limited liability company for federal and state income tax purposes. Under laws pertaining to income taxation of limited liability companies, no federal income tax is paid by the Company. The income or loss of the Company is taxed to the member in its respective return. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes besides the \$800 minimum California state franchise tax and the LLC tax which varies based on gross receipts of the Company are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Company evaluates its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by {8}------------------------------------------------ # ACCORD CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC Notes to Financial Statement December 31, 2024 #### I. Nature of Business and Summary of Accounting Policies (continued) the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold are recorded as an expense in the applicable year. As of December 31, 2024, the Company does not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary. # Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. #### Subsequent events The Company has evaluated the need for other disclosures or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through April 11, 2025, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Subsequent to December 31, 2024, and through the date of this report, the Company earned a success fee of \$1,174,500. #### 2. Net Capital Requirements Pursuant to the net capital provisions of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1 ), the Company is required to maintain minimum net capital of the greater of \$5,000 or the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, as defined. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness (as defined) to net capital shall not exceed 15 to 1. The rule of the "applicable" exchange also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. Net capital and the related ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital may fluctuate on a daily basis. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$6,455, which was \$1,455 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. Assets totaling \$1,027,707 were excluded from the calculation of the Company's net capital as they are classified as non-allowable assets. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 55.77% as of December 31, 2024. #### 3. Exemption from Rule 15c3-3 The Company does not claim an exemption from Rule 15c3-3 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission act of 1934, in reliance on footnote 74 to SEC Release 34-70073. The Company does not hold funds or securities for customers, and it promptly transmits all funds and delivers all securities in connection with its activities as a broker or dealer. {9}------------------------------------------------ # ACCORD CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC Notes to Financial Statement December 31, 2024 #### 4. Expense Sharing Agreement The Company receives support from AGH for such items as personnel salaries and benefits, accounting and information technology services, office equipment and other miscellaneous overhead expenses. The Company is charged a monthly fee that is dependent upon the level of personnel support required by the Company; monthly fees were \$50,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and adjusted at year-end to the Company's proportionate share of actual expenses incurred by AGH. The Company's share of operating expenses under the expense sharing agreement totaled \$1,232,510 for the year ended December 31, 2024. # 5. Concentrations The Company had accounts receivable from four major customers that accounted for approximately 93% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024. A major customer for accounts receivable concentrations is defined as a customer responsible for 10% or more of accounts receivable.
