# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Member of CoinShares Capital LLC

#### Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of CoinShares Capital LLC ("the Company") as of December 31, 2024, 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 the Company as of December 31, 2024, 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. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as CoinShares Capital LLC's auditors since 2020.

# **COINSHARES CAPITAL LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

# **1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS**

CoinShares Capital LLC, (formerly known as "Group Capital LLC"), a single member limited liability company (the "Company"), was organized on January 15, 2014 under the laws of the State of Delaware. It is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

The Company's business was previously limited to private placements. During 2019, all of its shares were purchased by a new owner. It is planning to continue to operate in private placements exclusively. The Company did not generate any revenue in 2024 and has not commenced its planned principal activities and is therefore considered to be a development stage company.

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

#### Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". The core principle of the standard is that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services. However, as explained in Note 1, the Company has not yet recognized any revenue.

# Use of Estimates:

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

#### Subsequent events:

Management has evaluated subsequent events through February 24, 2025, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

# **3. INCOME TAXES**

Members of a limited liability company are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal or state income taxes is included in the financial statements. The Company does not file any tax returns.

{6}------------------------------------------------

# **COINSHARES CAPITAL LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

# **4. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS**

Pursuant to the net capital provisions of Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is required to maintain a minimum net capital, as defined under such provisions, of \$5,000 or one-fifteenth of aggregate indebtedness as defined, if larger. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness fluctuate from day to day but, at December 31, 2024, the Company's net capital exceeds such capital requirements by \$44,678 and the ratio of aggregate indebtedness of \$6,000 to its net capital of \$49,678 is .1208 to 1.

#### **5. OPERATING LEASE OBLIGATION**

The Company conducts its operations from an office that is leased from the member on a month-to-month basis. Lease expense for the year is \$9,636.

# **6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

The Company has an expense sharing agreement with its member. Pursuant to the agreement, the member pays certain operating expenses on behalf of the Company, which are reimbursed by the Company to the member. During the period ended December 31, 2024, the total expenses paid by the member on behalf of the Company amounted to \$43,418. The Company has fully reimbursed the member for these expenses.

# **7. GOING CONCERN**

The Company has not yet earned any revenue, as is common with a development stage company. The Company has had losses during its development stage. The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have significant cash or other material assets, nor does it have an established source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. In the interim, the member of the Company has committed to provide additional capital to meet its operating expenses until it begins to generate enough revenue to cover its costs.

# **8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had no commitment, contingency, or guarantee that might result in a loss or a future obligation, as well as any claim of which the firm was aware that might be asserted against it as of the audit opinion date.

#### **9. BUSINESS SEGMENT**

The Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07 issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced enhancements to segment reporting requirements for public entities, including broker-dealers. The update aimed to improve the transparency and usefulness of financial disclosures for investors and other stakeholders. ASU 2023-07 disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years starting after December 15, 2023.

The Company operates as a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services, including marketing of private funds. The Company has identified its Managing Director as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") as specified in ASU 2023-07, 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 adequacy. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reporting 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. Company management reviewed the ASU 2023- 07 disclosure requirements and determined that no additional disclosures are required as the Company has only a single reportable segment.
