In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021 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. *f,t<;l* 1/.. */). H~l-~* {., t,C,\_. We have served as Dealer Solutions North America LLC's auditor since 2017.

Organization and Business** Dealer Solutions North America LLC, (the "Company") is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of New York. It is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company's operations consist of private placement of securities; chaperoning of foreign broker dealers; and referring investors to other broker dealers in exchange for commissions. #### **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** #### **Basis of Presentation** This financial statement was prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. #### **Cash** All cash deposits are held by one financial institution and therefore are subject to the credit risk at that financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe there to be any significant credit risk with respect to these deposits. #### **Income Taxes** The Company is a single member limited liability company, and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Company has not provided for income taxes. At June 30, 2021, management has determined that the Company had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition. This determination will always be subject to ongoing reevaluation as facts and circumstances may require. #### **3. Transactions with Related Parties** The Company has entered into an Expense Sharing Agreement ("ESA") with an Affiliate whereby the Affiliate is to provide office and administrative services, payroll and professional services at a monthly charge of \$100 to the Company. The ESA has a term of one year and is automatically renewed annually, unless terminated or modified by written notice. The value of the services provided by the Affiliate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 was \$1,200. It is included in accounts payable on the statement of financial condition. In addition, the Affiliate paid other expenses on the Company's behalf without seeking reimbursement. The terms of these arrangements may not be the same as those that would otherwise exist or result from agreements and transactions among unrelated parties. {7}------------------------------------------------ ### **Notes to Financial Statement June 30, 2021** #### **4. Regulatory Requirements** The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule l 5c3-l under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 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 15 to 1. At June 30, 2021, the Company had net capital of approximately \$16,500 which exceeded the required net capital by approximately \$11,500. The Company does not hold customers' cash or securities and, therefore, has no obligations under SEC Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. #### **5. COVID-19** During the 2020 calendar year, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to constitute a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern". This pandemic has disrupted economic markets and the economic impact, duration and spread of the COVJD-19 virus is uncertain at this time. The financial performance of the Company is subject to future developments related to the COVID-19 outbreak and possible government advisories and restrictions placed on the financial markets and business activities. The impact on financial markets and the overall economy, all of which are highly uncertain, cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period the Company's results may be materially affected. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. #### **6. Going Concern** Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 requires that management evaluate conditions or events that might raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management has evaluated the Company's conditions and has determined that unless the Company generates enough revenue or continues to be funded by its member, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Capital is not a significant income producing factor but should the Company have a need for capital it will be able to rely upon its member to infuse capital to cover overheard should that become necessary.
