In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements 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 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 statements are 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 statements, 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 everall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### Supplemental Information

The supplemental information (Schedule I - Computation of Net Capital Pursuant to Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Schedule II and III - Statement Regarding Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission) (the "supplemental information) has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The supplemental information is the Company's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

#### 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Spoke Real Estate Financial, LLC (the "Company"), a Delaware Corporation was established on May 13, 2019 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Spoke Real Estate Enterprises LLC (the "Parent"). The Company is a registered broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"), as of October 15, 2019.

The Company acts as a private placement agent for real estate investment syndications that are structured as direct participation programs. The Company works with investment offerings that are structured and managed by one of its affiliates, Spoke Management LLC. A separate limited liability company is formed for each investment opportunity and controlled by Spoke Management LLC. The syndications are sold pursuant to the private placement exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D. All transactions are effected through a subscription document on an agency basis and funds are held in a bank escrow account.

#### 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

#### Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

#### Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Revenue recognition

In accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC Topic 606") revenues from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, the Company satisfies its performance obligations by transferring the promised services to the customers. A service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that service. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that the Company determines the customer obtains control over the promised service. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring the Company's progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the services to the customer.

{10}------------------------------------------------

#### 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those promised services (i.e., the "transaction price"). In determining the transaction price, the Company considers multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration, if any. This amount is disclosed in each Private Placement Memorandum. Revenue is recognized at a point in time once the contingency is removed and the transaction is closed.

## Cash and Cash equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All of the company's cash is held at Citibank N.A.

#### Uncertain tax positions

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740 "Income Taxes" as they relate to uncertain tax positions. The Company was not required to recognize any amounts from uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2023.

The Company's conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors. In the event that tax authorities assess interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits, the Company will reflect such amounts in tax expense and income taxes payable.

## 3. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company's cash deposits are held by one financial institution and therefore, are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limit of \$250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. At times throughout the year the company may hold balances in excess of federally insured limits.

## 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company earns all revenue from investment syndications with related party affiliates. Pursuant to an expense sharing agreement, the Company reimburses the Parent for allocated administration fees, office space, insurance and other services. These expenses were paid for by the Parent. These charges are updated periodically, and determined based on percentages of personnel time and other factors. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Parent charged the Company \$54,477 for such expenses. At December 31, 2023 the company owed the parent \$13,619.

{11}------------------------------------------------

#### 5. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company is subject to the uniform net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 ("The Rule") of the Securities and Exchange Act, as amended, which requires the Company to maintain, at all times, sufficient liquid assets to cover indebtedness.
