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 entity's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this 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. 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. We have served as the Company's auditor since 2024.

2,270•,820· | {6}------------------------------------------------ # **1. Organization and Nature of Business** RealCadre Company, Inc. ("RCI"), formerly Westminster JJR, Inc., was formed on June 11, 2014, and commenced operations on June 16, 2014. On May 5, 2015, RCI merged with and into RealCadre Mergerco LLC ("RML"), a Delaware limited liability company. RML changed its name to RealCadre LLC (the "Company") effective June 15, 2015. The Company is wholly owned by Quadro Partners, LLC, ("Parent"), previously Quadro Partners, Inc., with the ultimate Parent being YieldStreet, Inc. ("the ultimate Parent", "Yieldstreet"). On November 22, 2023, the Parent, Quadro Partners, Inc., signed a definitive agreement (the "Merger Agreement") with YieldStreet Inc. providing that Yieldstreet would acquire all ownership interests in Quadro Partners, Inc. On December 20, 2023, Quadro Partners, Inc. merged with and into its indirect subsidiary in a tax-free reorganization, with Quadro Partners, Inc. surviving the merger and converting into a Delaware limited liability company as Quadro Partners, LLC, wholly owned by Quadro Partners Holding, Inc. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were completed on January 22, 2024, whereby Quadro Partners Holding, Inc. merged with and into a subsidiary of Yieldstreet. The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission effective January 7, 2015, when it became a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company offers private placements of interests in private funds and partnerships and secondary transactions of these interests using the functioning Alternative Trading System ("ATS"). The Company relies on the (k)(2)(i) exemption under the 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3 Rule and Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 ("Footnote 7 4"). # **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** # **a) Basis of Presentation** The accompanying financial statement has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's financial statement has been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the financial statement, the Company has experienced cumulative operating losses through the year ended December 31, 2024. Because of these conditions and events, the Company remains reliant upon funding from its Parent to continue as a going concern. The Parent has guaranteed its commitment to the Company to fully support the operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company to satisfy its obligations as they become due through April 1, 2026. As a result, the Company has concluded that management's plans are probable of being achieved to ensure the Company has sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date the financial statement is issued. {7}------------------------------------------------ #### **RealCadre LLC Notes to Financial Statement As of December 31, 2024** # **b) Use of Estimates** The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with GAAP 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 statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates. # **c) Cash and Cash Equivalents** The Company maintains cash balances which at times may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had accounts with two banking institutions totaling \$1,943,287, of which \$1,658,641 was in excess of the federally insured amount. The Company considers its investments in short-term money market accounts in the amount of \$1,908,644 to be cash equivalents. The Company defines cash equivalents as short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than ninety days from date of acquisition. The carrying amounts of such cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. # **d) Current Expected Credit Losses Reserve** The Company measures and recognizes credit loss on financial assets that are not measured at fair value through net income in accordance with ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC Topic 326"). Under ASC Topic 326, credit losses are measured using the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") impairment model which reflects the net amount expected to be collected over the remaining expected life of the financial assets upon initial recognition. Under CECL, the Company considers historical loss experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable information around forecasted economic conditions when measuring credit losses. # **e) Income Taxes** As a single member LLC, the Company is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes. RealCadre LLC has no commitments to fund the tax liability at the Parent level (or receive any tax benefit from Parent), and no tax sharing agreement with Parent is in place. Accordingly, no income tax provision has been recorded for the period ended December 31, 2024. # **f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments** Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, and establish 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 a transaction to sell the asset or liability occurs in a principal market or, in its absence, the most advantageous market. Management utilizes the market approach, as specified by generally accepted accounting principles, to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels: {8}------------------------------------------------ Level 1 inputs to the valuation hierarchy are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and rely on management's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and many include the Company's own data. There were no Level 3 assets or liabilities reported in the Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, certain financial assets and liabilities are carried at amounts that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and generally negligible credit risk. The fair value of money markets included in cash and cash equivalents of \$1,908,644 are categorized as Level 1. There are no Level 2 or 3 financial instruments. # **g) Segment Reporting** In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures or ASU 2023-07. The amendments improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on January 1, 2024, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures. The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of private placements of interests in private funds and partnerships and secondary transactions of these interests through its alternative trading system. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer 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 make profit 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 financial condition of this segment are the same as those descried in the summary of other significant accounting policies noted above. # **3. Related Party Transactions** The Company entered into an expense sharing agreement ("ESA") with the Parent and an affiliate, CCV LLC, in January 2016, which was amended in September 2019 and made effective as of August 2019. Expenses such as administrative, rent and occupancy, salaries and related costs, business development, stock-based compensation and other back-office services are charged to the Company based on a percentage allocation of employees' time spent. Expenses such as professional fees and pursuit costs are charged to the Company based on usage at the Company relative to the other parties. As of December 31, 2024, the company owed \$1,017,222 {9}------------------------------------------------ #### **RealCadre LLC Notes to Financial Statement As of December 31, 2024** to the Parent for payments the Parent made on behalf of the Company related to the expense sharing. The Company incurs expenses related to introductions, referrals or placement agreements or services with respect to an investment (or a commitment to investment) brokered or offered by the Company and/or advised or managed by CCV LLC (or its affiliates). Pursuant to an expense sharing agreement between the Company and CCV LLC ("Affiliate"), a percentage of the incurred expenses is allocated to the Affiliate. The allocation to the Affiliate is pro rata to the fees that are reasonably expected to be collected by the Company and CCV LLC (or its affiliates) with respect to the investment made or committed to. As of December 31, 2024, CCV LLC owed \$285,794 to the Company reported as due from affiliates in the statement of financial condition. Placement services are provided to affiliated entities under agreements with the Company. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company is entitled to certain fees for acting as a placement agent in connection with primary offerings in private placements. These fees are based upon a contractually agreed upon amount. Due to the above related party transactions, the financial condition of the Company may differ from those that would have been achieved had the Company operated autonomously or as an entity independent of its affiliates. # **4. Commitments and Contingencies.** The Company may be subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the management's opinion, based upon the information available as of the date these financials are available to be issued, there are no litigation claims against the Company that would have a material impact on the operating results of the Company. # **5. Risks and Uncertainties** The Company is subject to credit risk to the extent that the bank the company conducts business with is unable to fulfill their contractual obligations and the amounts exceed those insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. As disclosed in Note 2, the Company maintains cash amounts in excess of federally insured limits. # **6. Net Capital Requirement** The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule ( 15c3-1 ), referenced by Schedule I in these financials, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 1500%. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$870,363 which was \$620,363 in excess of its required net capital of \$250,000 and the Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital percentage was 123.27%. # **7. SubsequentEvents** The Company evaluated events and transactions that occurred subsequent to March 27, 2025, through the date the financial statement was available to be issued. There were no events or {10}------------------------------------------------ #### **RealCadre LLC Notes to Financial Statement As of December 31, 2024** transactions during the period that would require recognition or disclosure other than as described below. Effective January 15, 2025, RealCadre LLC changed its name to Yieldstreet Markets LLC as approved by FINRA. Source: SEC EDGAR via Adviser Search (https://search.stillhousedata.com).
