KPMG LLP 345 Park Avenue New York, NY 10154-0102

# **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Member and the Board of Director Prometheum Capital, LLC:

# *Opinion on the Financial Statements*

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Prometheum Capital, 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, 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

# *Basis for Opinion*

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

#### *Accompanying Supplemental Information*

The supplemental information contained in Schedules I, II, III and IV 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 supplemental information 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 supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §

{5}------------------------------------------------

![](_page_5_Picture_0.jpeg)

240.17a-5. In our opinion, the supplemental information contained in Schedules I, II, III and IV 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 2023.

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

#### NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Prometheum Capital, LLC ("Prometheum Capital" or the "Company") was formed in January 2021 as a Delaware limited liability company. The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") authorized to custody, clear and settle digital asset securities.

On May 17, 2023, Prometheum Capital was approved as a member of FINRA as a Special Purpose Broker Dealer. On December 20, 2023, Prometheum Capital was also approved as a member of FINRA to clear and settle digital asset securities. The Company is also a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC").

The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Prometheum, Inc. ("Parent"). The Parent was formed for the purpose of developing, building out and commercializing an integrated network, which is referred to as the "Trading Ecosystem," for the trading, clearing, settlement and custody of blockchain protocol based Digital Asset Securities.

# NOTE 2 – UNCERTAINTY AND LIQUIDITY

The Company has incurred significant losses since inception. However, the Company anticipates onboarding customers and beginning custodial operations during the first quarter of 2024. The Parent has the ability and the intent to fund the Company's losses now and into the future until such time that the Company becomes profitable.

#### NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

#### Basis of Presentation

The Company's financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") as set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The following paragraphs describe our significant accounting policies.

These include any changes to our accounting policies required under US GAAP, which became effective January 1, 2023.

#### Accrued Expenses

The Company accrues for expenses based on the terms of agreements with vendors with respect to the period of service provided or covered.

#### Use of Estimates

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on certain assumptions which it believes are reasonable in the circumstances and does not believe that any change in those assumptions would have a significant effect on financial position or results of operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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

#### NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

#### Fair Value Measurement

The fair value of highly liquid, short term assets, including cash, prepaid expenses, payables, and accrued expenses approximates their carrying value given that they are short term in nature, bear interest at current market rates, or are subject to re-pricing, generally on a daily basis.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a single-member limited liability company disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes. No income tax provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements since the Company is not subject to United States federal, state, or local income taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under, ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"), and is no longer obligated to disclose its tax positions on its stand-alone financials and instead reports them with its Parent.

#### Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company has defined cash equivalents as highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than 90 days that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2023 the Company did not hold any cash equivalents.

#### Cash Segregated in Compliance with Federal Regulations

Cash segregated in compliance with federal regulations consists of cash on deposit in a special reserve bank account for the exclusive benefit of customers under SEC Rule 15c3-3.

#### Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains all its cash with one financial institution, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. This account is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company subject to certain limitations. The Company has not experienced any loss in this account and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

#### Leases

Leases are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842 Leases ("ASC 842"). Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases, and are recorded on the balance sheet as both a right-of-use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred. In calculating the right-of-use asset and lease liability, the Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components.

## Capital Contributions

Prior to January 1, 2023, the effective date of the Expense Sharing Agreement discussed in Note 4, all contributions from the Parent were in the form of cash.

{12}------------------------------------------------

#### NOTE 4 – EXPENSE SHARING AGREEMENT

The Company operates pursuant to an expense sharing agreement ("ESA") entered into with the Parent. Pursuant to that agreement, certain expenses paid by the Parent, which benefit the Company, are allocated to the Company, based on a percentage, and reflected in the accounts of the Company. Expenditures by the Parent which are recorded in the accounts of Prometheum Capital pursuant to the ESA are settled by a simultaneous non-cash capital contribution by the Parent.

Recognition of expenses under this agreement were started in the month of January, 2023, as membership by the Company in FINRA was anticipated to become effective during 2023.

Amounts recorded in the accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 under the ESA amounted to \$3,531,856. This amount was settled with a simultaneous non-cash capital contribution and allocated as follows:

# NOTE 5 – NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

# **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Director Prometheum Capital, LLC:

We have examined the statements made by Prometheum Capital, LLC (the Company), included in the accompanying Prometheum Capital, LLC Compliance Report, that (1) the Company's internal control over compliance with 17 C.F.R §240.15c3-1 and C.F.R. §240.15c3-3(e) was effective during the period May 17, 2023 to December 31, 2023; (2) the Company's internal control over compliance with 17 C.F.R §240.15c3-1 and C.F.R. §240.15c3-3(e) was effective as of the end of the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2023; (3) the Company was in compliance with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e) as of December 31, 2023; and (4) the information used to state that the Company was in compliance with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e) was derived from the Company's books and records. The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of internal control over compliance that has the objective of providing the Company with reasonable assurance that non-compliance with 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-1 and 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3(e). The Company states in the accompanying Compliance Report during the period May 17, 2023 to December 31, 2023 and as of the most fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the Company did not carry any accounts of customers or proprietary accounts of broker dealers on its books and records, therefore, the Company had no compliance obligations under 17a-13 (Quarterly Security Counts), Rule 2231 (Customer Account Statements) and Possession or Control requirements under 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's statements based on our examination.

We conducted our examination in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Company's internal control over compliance with 17 C.F.R §240.15c3-1 and C.F.R. §240.15c3-3(e) was effective as of December 31, 2023 and during the period May 17, 2023 to December 31, 2023; the Company complied with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e) as of December 31, 2023; and the information used to assert compliance with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e) as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the Company's books and records. Our examination included testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over compliance with 17 C.F.R §240.15c3-1 and C.F.R. §240.15c3-3(e), testing and evaluating the Company's compliance with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e), determining whether the information used to assert compliance with 17 C.F.R. §§ 240.15c3-1 and 240.15c3-3(e) was derived from the Company's books and records, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Because the Company states in the accompanying Compliance Report during the period May 17, 2023 to December 31, 2023 and as of the most fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, it did not carry any accounts of customers or proprietary accounts of broker dealers on its books and records, therefore, the Company had no compliance obligations under 17a-13 (Quarterly Security Counts), Rule 2231 (Customer Account Statements) and Possession or Control requirements under 17 C.F.R. § 240.15c3-3.
