#### **Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of CVC Funding, LLC, (the "Company"), as of December 31, 2023, 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 the Company, as of December 31, 2023, 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 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 2018.

### **Notes to Financial Statement December 31 2023**

#### **1. Nature of business**

#### Nature of Business

eve Funding, LLC (the "Company'). is a State of Delaware limited liability company formed on June 3, 2015. The Company is wholly-owned by CVC Credit Partners LLC. (the "Parent"). The Company is registered as a brokerdealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company acts primarily as finder and/or placement agent to its own proprietary funds, as well as affiliated funds under Rule 506 of Regulation D and Regulation S. Fund sales in which the Company engages generally involves securities that are not registered with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 and that are offered by private equity funds or funds that are also not registered with the SEC pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940.

# **2. Summary of significant accounting policies**

#### Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statement is presented in U.S. Dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

#### 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASe Topic 606"), which requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company follows a five-step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

#### **Services Income from Parent**

The Company generates revenue through the reimbursement of all operating expenses (excluding SIPC assessment and income taxes, if any) of the Company plus a mark-up of 10% under the service agreement with the Parent. Revenue is recognized and the performance obligation is satisfied when the underlying expenses have been incurred.

#### **Underwriting Income**

Fees from underwriting are recognized in accordance with the terms of the related investment banking and advisory service agreements. 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 canceled. There were no underwriting activities in 2023.

{7}------------------------------------------------

# **eve Funding, LLe (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of eve Credit Partners, LLC)**

## **Notes to Financial Statement December 31 2023**

#### Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and Equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated using the straight line method based on their respective estimated useful lives.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is a single member Limited Liability Company and is treated as a disregarded entity for Federal and state/local income tax purposes and therefore any income or loss is included in the consolidated federal and state/local income tax returns of the Parent. The Company is not subject to federal and state income taxes.

### Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities

The Company accounts for its long-term leases under the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases. The guidance requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the statement of financial condition. The Company is a lessee in a non-cancellable operating lease for a printer. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its future lease payments. 1he discount rate is the implicit rate if it is readily determinable or otherwise the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rates of our leases are not readily determinable and accordingly, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date for all leases. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest It would have to pay on <sup>a</sup> collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and in a similar economic environment. The right of use asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured lease liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payments), less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease cost for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The undiscounted maturity of the non-cancellable lease payments under the current lease agreement as of December 31, 2023 are as follows:

Year ending December 31,

| Total undiscounted lease payments \$ | 85,526 |
|--------------------------------------|--------|
| 2027                                 | 10,430 |
| 2026                                 | 25,032 |
| 2025                                 | 25,032 |
| 2024                                 | 25,032 |

The Company leases a printer/copier. The lease is for a 60-months term expiring in 2027. It has been classified as an operating lease and is included in the data presented above.
