# CAPITAL CITY SECURITIES, LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A. Organization

Capital City Securities, LLC (the Company) was formed as a limited liability company in the State of Ohio in August 2006. The Company has been operating as a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the State of Ohio Securities Division since May 29, 2008; it is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA).

The Company operates pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii), clearing transactions on a fully disclosed basis through its clearing firm, RBC Capital Markets Corporation ("RBC"), and on an application-way basis with registered investment companies, insurance and annuity providers, and other product offerings. Customer accounts held directly at a product issuer for which the Company is listed as the broker-dealer of record. The Company does not hold customer funds or safeguard customer securities.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company is licensed in 22 states, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Maryland, New York, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Nevada and Virginia.

B. Management's Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

C. Cash and Restricted Cash Equivalents

The Company maintains cash balances at one bank, one money market account and on deposit with FINRA. The cash balance in the bank was under the federally insured limit of $250,000 as of December 31, 2021. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all cash in checking accounts, money market accounts and held at FINRA to be cash equivalents.

Restricted cash equivalents represent amounts on deposit at financial institutions that are legally restricted due to contract terms with RBC. Included in the statements of financial condition is a restricted cash deposit for margin requirements at RBC in the amount of $50,000.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-

D. Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and commissions receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions, which at times may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company's receivables represent commissions from completed securities trades and monies owed it from licensed securities representatives for charges incurred at the firm. All customer transactions are cleared through another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis.

E. Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising costs were $301 and $297 in 2021 and 2020, respectively. Advertising is included in other expenses.

F. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition

Securities transactions, commissions and related clearing expenses are reported on a trade date basis. The change in the resulting difference between cost and market is included in net trading profits in the statement of income. The Company's activities are transacted on either a cash or margin basis. Margin transactions are subject to various regulatory and internal margin requirements and are collateralized by cash and securities in the Company's accounts.

Commission expense is also recorded on a trade-date basis as security transactions occur.

G. Receivables

Accounts receivable - related party are stated at the amount billed. Registered representative affiliation fees, commission charge backs and other costs that are the responsibility of registered representatives are offset against amounts owed to registered representatives for their commission payables. If the balance of the debits owed to the Company exceed the amount owed to the registered representative, the net balance owed to the Company is recorded as a receivable.

The receivable from broker-dealers and clearing organization is the net amount owed from RBC to the Company for dealer activity. The receivable is recorded net of any related liabilities to the clearing firm on the accompanying statement of financial condition.

Management individually reviews all receivable balances that exceed 30 days from the invoice date and based on an assessment of various factors, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. In the opinion of management, all receivables are considered collectible and no allowance was necessary at December 31, 2021 and 2020.

# CAPITAL CITY SECURITIES, LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-

# H. Government and Other Regulations

The Company's business is subject to significant regulation by various governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. Such regulation includes, among other things, periodic examinations by these regulatory bodies to determine whether the Company is conducting and reporting its operations in accordance with the requirements of these organizations. As a registered broker-dealer, the Company is subject to the SEC's Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 which requires that the Company maintains a minimum net capital, as defined [see note 3],

# Note 2 - Reserve Requirements

The Company is not obligated to report under SEC Rule 15c3-3 since it does not maintain customer accounts or hold securities. All customer transactions are cleared through another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis. Therefore, the Company does not have a reserve requirement nor does it have any information relating to the possession or control requirement under Rule 15c3-3.

# Note 3 - Net Capital Requirements (Schedules I and II)

Under SEC Rule 15c3-1, the Company is required to maintain net capital of not less than the greater of 6.67% of total aggregate indebtedness liabilities, exclusive of subordinated debt, for the year ended December 31, 2021, $7,526, or $5,000. At December 31, 2021 the Company's net capital as defined by SEC Rule 15c3-1 was $30,972 in excess of the minimum net capital required.

In addition to the minimum net capital provision, SEC Rule 15c3-1 requires that the Company maintain a ratio of aggregate indebtedness, as defined, to capital, of not more than 15 to 1. At December 31, 2021 the ratio was 2.91 to 1.

# Note 4 - Related Party Transactions

Capital City Securities, LLC is one of four subsidiaries of the parent company Capital City Partners, Inc. (CCP). Certain expenses are incurred by CCP, which then bills the four subsidiaries based on direct consumption. The expenses relating to these transactions are wages, insurance, rent, utilities, and office expenses. These services accounted for $14,795 in 2021 and $15,268 in 2020, respectively.

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

# Note 5 - Income Taxes

The Company is recognized as a "pass-through entity" under the Internal Revenue Code and pays no federal and state taxes. The parent company is taxed individually on the Company's taxable income.

The Company recognizes and disclosures uncertain tax positions in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company is no longer subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities for returns filed prior to 2017.

# Note 6 - Recent Accounting Pronouncement

The Company adopts all applicable, new accounting pronouncements as of the specified effective dates.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, as a new Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 ("ASC Topic 842"), which will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. Under the new provisions, all lessees will report a right-of-use asset and a liability for the obligation to make payments for all leases with the exception of those leases with a term of 12 months or less. All other leases will fall into one of two categories:

- Financing leases, similar to capital leases, will require the recognition of an asset and liability, measured at the present value of the lease payments.

o Interest on the liability will be recognized separately from amortization of the asset.
o Principal repayments will be classified as financing outflows and payments of interest as operating outflows on the statement of cash flows.

- Operating leases will also require the recognition of an asset and liability measured at the present value of the lease payments.

o A single lease cost, consisting of interest on the obligation and amortization of the asset, calculated such that the amortization of the asset will increase as the interest amount decreases resulting in a straight-line recognition of lease expense.
o All cash outflows will be classified as operating on the statement of cash flows.

- The standard is effective for us for annual periods beginning January 1, 2020. We adopted ASC Topic 842 as of January 1, 2020. An assessment to determine the impacts of the new accounting standard has been performed. Based on our assessment, the adoption of ASC Topic 842 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

- Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.

# Note 7 - COVID-19

During March 2020, the state and federal government issued stay at home and social distancing recommendations to combat the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a result, numerous local businesses were closed and employees were laid off. The Organization has made operational modifications to comply with the above recommendations, but continues to offer its services as of the audit report date. There has been a restructuring of meetings and customer interactions as result of these regulations. The Organization believes it has enough capital reserves to withstand the effects of the pandemic through the following 12 months from the report date. We are unable to project what other effects this pandemic will have beyond the subsequent 12 month from the date of the audit report, but management has no plans to cease operations.

# Note 8 - Litigation

On September 21, 2020 the firm agreed to an Acceptance of Letter of Acceptance, Waiver, and Consent (AWC) with FINRA. Capital City Securities, LLC, CRD No. 146001, Matter No. 2015048347902 Respondent also consents to the imposition of the following sanctions:

1. Censure, and
2. An order to pay restitution in the amount of $53,174.51.

Respondent made the required restitution payments. Therefore the Matter is settled. The details for the cause of the AWC are as follows:

Between August 2015 and June 2016 (the "Relevant Trading Period"), Capital City failed to establish and maintain a supervisory system, and failed to establish, maintain and enforce written supervisory procedures, that were reasonably designed to achieve compliance with FINRA's suitability rules. Specifically, the firm used a third-party automated trade surveillance application to supervise and review registered representative trading recommendations and strategies yet did not re-configure, modify, or alter that surveillance tool to monitor unique trading strategies like that of registered representative CK. Second, with respect to CK, the firm bifurcated responsibility for supervising his equity and options recommendations by product, even where those recommendations impacted the same customer account as part of a singular, active trading strategy. As a result, individual supervisors were unable to identify patterns and evaluate the trading strategy employed by CK, who effected quantitatively unsuitable transactions in five customer accounts over which he had discretionary trading authority. CK's trading in these customer accounts generated cost-to-equity ratios and turnover rates ranging from 19.7% to 31.7o/o and 8.2 to 12.7, respectively. Through this conduct, Capital City violated FINRA Rules 3110 and 2010.

In addition, between July 30, 2015 and August 10, 2015, Capital City failed to conduct a reasonable due diligence review of a private placement by registered representative JM, in violation of FINRA Rules 3110 and 201'A. Finally, between July 22,2015 and August 24,2016, Capital City failed to preserve and maintain certain books and records required by Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("the Exchange Act") and Rule 17a-4 promulgated thereunder ("SEA Rule 17a-4"). Specifically, Capital City failed to preserve and maintain over 200 of JM's business-related electronic communications conducted through his personal email address. As a result, the firm violated Section 17(a) of the Exchange Act, Rule 17a-4 thereunder, and FINRA Rules 4511 and 201,0.

# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
of Capital City Securities, LLC
Powell, Ohio

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying SEC Rule 15c3-3 Exemption Report, in which (1) Capital City Securities, LLC identified the following provisions of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which Capital City Securities, LLC claimed an exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3: (2)(ii) (the "exemption provisions") and (2) Capital City Securities, LLC stated that Capital City Securities, LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. Capital City Securities, LLC's management is responsible for compliance with the exemption provisions and its statements.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about Capital City Securities, LLC's compliance with the exemption provisions. A review is substantially less in scope than an examination, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on management's statements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's statements referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the provisions set forth in paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
