#### **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Member of Opportune Partners LLC:

#### **Opinion on the Financial Statement**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Opportune Partners LLC (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, 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 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 2018.

### **Note 1 - Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

#### *Nature of Business:*

OPPORTUNE PARTNERS LLC, (Company) is a limited liability company organized in the State of Texas in January 2018 to provide investment banking services, including acquisitions, divestitures and mergers advisory, debt and equity private placements, restructuring and fairness opinion services. The Company is registered as a broker/dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC).

#### *Significant Accounting Policies:*

#### Basis of Accounting and Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Segment Reporting

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification, ASC 280, *Segment Reporting* in 2024. The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of advisory services. The Company has identified its CEO 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, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or to pay 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.

#### Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company has defined cash equivalents as highly liquid investments, with original maturities of less than ninety days, which are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business. The Company maintains its operating cash at a financial institution. At December 31, 2025, there were no cash equivalents.

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

### **Note 1 - Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

#### Concentration in Revenue

During the year ended December 31, 2025, 73% of the Company's operating revenue came from one customer. Due to the nature of the Company's business, it is reasonably possible that the loss of a customer or the default on receivables due from customers could have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

#### Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. At December 31, 2025, accounts receivable totaled \$30,000. The Company evaluated its financial assets subject to ASC 326 and determined that its trade receivables, which are short-term in nature and primarily consist of advisory fees and reimbursable expense receivables, did not result in material expected credit losses. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of December 31, 2025.

#### Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial asset and liability amounts reported in the statement of financial condition are short-term in nature and approximate fair value.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is a single-member limited liability company and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal and applicable state income tax purposes. Accordingly, the income or loss of the Company is reported on the income tax return of its sole member, and no provision for income taxes has been reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. A tax position is recognized only if it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement.

{8}------------------------------------------------

Because the Company is treated as a disregarded entity, its tax attributes are reported in the income tax returns of itssole member, and the Company is not subject to income tax examinations by taxing authorities as a separate entity. Management has evaluated the tax positions of the Company in accordance with ASC 740 and has concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements as of December 31, 2025.

#### Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under this guidance, the Company recognizes revenue from sales when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied by analyzing exchanges with its customers using a five-step approach (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligation in the contract(s); (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract(s); and (5) recognize the revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance

### **Note 1 - Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

obligation. Such revenue is recorded at the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for the transfer of goods and services to its customers.

The majority of the Company's revenue arrangements generally consist of a single performance obligation. Consulting fees are substantially reported based on an hourly rate (or other arranged billing schedule). The Company records advisory fee revenues over time, gross of related expenses, because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits provided by the Company. Merger and acquisition success fee engagements have initial upfront fees which are earned under the terms of the contract. Any other fees are success based and are recognized at the close of the transaction at a point in time when considered earned. Occasionally, the Company receives advances or deposits from our customers, before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These deposits are liquidated when revenue is recognized.
