# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

General Partner Threadmark LP

#### Opinion on the Financial Statement

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Threadmark LP (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the statement of financial condition presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Threadmark LP as of December 31, 2022 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. 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 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as Threadmark LP's auditor since 2015.

# **1. Nature of Operations**

Threadmark LP (the "Partnership") was formed on April 22, 2014. The General Partner is Threadmark GP, LLC. The Partnership is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is also a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC").

The Partnership's operations consist primarily of introducing leading institutional investors to fund managers that make private equity, real estate and other non-traditional investments. The partnership also provides advice to fund managers regarding ways to improve their methods of raising capital.

# **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

## *Basis of Presentation*

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America ("GAAP").

## *Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Partnership.

## **Revenue Recognition**

## *Placement fees*

The Partnership records success fees in accordance with the related party agreements (see related party transaction note). These agreements are generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed (the closing date of the transaction) or the contract is cancelled. The Partnership believes that the transaction date is the appropriate point in time to recognize revenue for Success fees as there are no significant actions which the Partnership needs to take subsequent to this date.

# *Service fees*

The Partnership records Service fees in accordance with the related party agreements (see related party transaction note). The Partnership earns a monthly Service fees from the Parent for its roll in introducing leading institutional investors to fund and other nontraditional investments. Transaction price is stated in the related party agreement. At the end of each month the Partnership obligation for that month is met and fees are recorded.

#### *Income Taxes*

The partners report the Partnership's income or loss on their income tax returns. Accordingly no provision for federal and state income taxes has been recorded.

## *Leases*
