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

To the Member of TI Securities, LLC

### Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of TI Securities, LLC (the "Company") as of December 31 , 2023 , the related statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). 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 the year 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 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 statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement to 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 evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

## Supplemental Information

The information contained in Schedules I, II and III has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the information in Schedules I, II and ill reconciles 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 accompanying schedules. In forming our opinion on the accompanying schedules, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented

{4}------------------------------------------------

in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.1 ?a-5. In our opinion, the aforementioned supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2020.

#### Tl Securities, LLC Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2023

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

#### Nature of Business

Tl Securities, LLC (the Company) is a Delaware limited liability company formed on September 10, 2019 and is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") since February 12, 2020. As a limited liability company, the member's liability is limited to its investment.

The Company's primary business is investment banking services.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is wholly-owned by Tl Partners, LLC ("Member"). As a limited liability company, the tax consequences of the Company's operations all pass through to the member. Accordingly, the Company's financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes.

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Under this provision, the Company is required to evaluate each of its tax positions to determine if they are more likely than not to be sustained if the taxing authority examines the respective position. A tax position includes an entity's status, including its status as a pass-through entity, and the decision not to file a return. The Company has evaluated each of its tax positions and has determined that no provision or liability for income taxes is necessary.

#### Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates in determining assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

#### Cash

The Company maintains its bank account in a high credit quality financial institution. The balance at times may exceed insured limits.

#### Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing, uncollateralized obligations receivable in accordance with the terms agreed upon with each customer. The Company regularly reviews its accounts receivable for any uncollectible amounts. The review for uncollectible amounts is based on an analysis of the Company's collection experience, customer credit worthiness, and current economic treads.

#### Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers includes placement and advisory services. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; whether revenue should be presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events.

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

#### Tl Securities, LLC Notes to Financial Statements December 31 , 2023

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

#### Revenue Recognition (continued)

The Company provides placement and advisory services related to capital raising activities and mergers and acquisitions transactions. Revenue from advisory agreements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the agreement is completed (the closing date of transaction) or the contract is cancelled. However, for certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory agreements in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. In some circumstances, significant judgement is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract.

The Company recognizes success fee revenue upon completion of a success fee-based transaction as this satisfies the only performance obligation identified by the Company.

#### Date of Management's Review

Subsequent events were evaluated through date the financial statements were issued.

#### Note 2- Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1 ), which requires the maintenance of a minimum net capital , and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital , both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31 , 2023, the Company had net capital of \$93,101 , which was \$88,101 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000, and its ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .07 to 1.

#### Note 3 - Related Party Transactions

The Company has an expense sharing agreement with its member. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company pays the member for allocated expenses such as occupancy and other administrative costs provided to the Company. Allocated expenses to the Company under this agreement amounted to approximately \$7,027 for the year ended December 31 , 2023.

Separately, the member at times pays for operating expenses on behalf of the Company for which it subsequently seeks reimbursement or forgives the amount to which it is entitled to be reimbursed. The balance due to member of \$2,316 on the accompanying statement of financial condition arose from allocated expenses to the Company under the expense sharing agreement with its member as well as operating expenses paid by the member on behalf of the Company that the Company has yet to reimburse.

The Company erroneously received \$2,007,500 from a customer of the Company's member on June 30, 2023. This amount was paid by the Company to the member on July 3, 2023.

Financial position and results of operations could differ from the amounts in the accompanying financial statements had these transactions not been with related parties.
