# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Member of

Pilot Hill Capital LLC

## Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Pilot Hill Capital LLC (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, 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, 2022, 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 III 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

in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-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.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2022

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

Nature of Business: Pilot Hill Capital LLC is a Delaware limited liability company formed on March 27, 2020 and is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") since August 24, 2020. As a limited liability company, the member's liability is limited to their investment.

The Company's primary business services are negotiation and execution of leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") transactions involving equity and seller debt securities and raising third-party debt financing to provide partial funding for the leveraged ESOP transactions.

Income Taxes: The Company is wholly-owned by Pilot Hill Advisors 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 accounts in high credit quality financial institutions. The balances at times may exceed insured limits.

Date of Management's Review: Subsequent events were evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued.

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. Based on management's review, no allowance for credit losses is considered to be necessary.

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

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

Revenue Recognition (continued):

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.

Revenue from placement and advisory services arrangements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the agreement is completed (the closing date of transaction). For certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory arrangements 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. Fees received from customers prior to recognizing the revenue would be reflected as contract liabilities.

The Company recognizes success fee revenues from placement and advisory services upon completion of a success fee based transaction. The Company additionally recognizes hourly fees encompassed by certain placement and advisory contracts over time as the related performance obligations are simultaneously provided to and consumed by the customer. The amount of hourly fees recognized over time during 2022 without the completion of a transaction or formal termination of the engagement was approximately $45,595, which is included in investment banking revenue in the accompanying Statement of Operations.

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, 2022, the Company had net capital of $446,267 which was $441,267 in excess of its required net capital of $5,000, and the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .03 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 marketing and other administrative costs provided to the Company. Allocated expenses amounted to approximately $32,876 for the year ended December 31, 2022. Approximately $6,234 of the balance due to the Member on the accompanying statement of financial condition arose from this expense sharing agreement.

Separately, the Member at times pays operating expenses on behalf of the Company for which it subsequently seeks reimbursement. Approximately $3,473 of the balance due to the Member on the accompanying statement of financial condition arose from the Member's payment of such expenses that have yet to be reimbursed by the Company.

Suite 1500
Atlanta, GA 30326

To Whom It May Concern:

We, as members of management of Pilot Hill Capital LLC (the "Company ") are responsible for complying with Rule 17a-5, "Reports to be made by certain brokers and dealers". We have performed an evaluation of the Company's compliance with the requirements of Rule 17a-5 and the exemption provisions in Rule 15c3-3(k) (the "exemption provisions ") and of the 2013 Release adopting amendments to Rule 17a-5, including Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release.

We have determined that the Company does not meet any of the exemption conditions of paragraph (k) of Rule 15c3-3 (i.e., paragraph (k)(1), (k)(2)(i) or (k)(2)(ii)) but also (1) does not directly or indirectly receive, hold or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, other than money or other consideration received and promptly transmitted in compliance with paragraph (a) or (b)(2) of Exchange Act Rule 15c2-4 ("Rule 15c2-4"); (2) does not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) does not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) and therefore is covered by Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release.

Accordingly, based on our evaluation we make the following statements to the best knowledge and belief of the Company:

1. We reviewed the provisions of Rule §15c3-3 and related guidance stated in the SEC Staff's FAQ and confirmed that the Company relied on Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release.
2. The Company conducted business activities involving placement and advisory services to customers throughout the year ended December 31, 2022, without exception.
3. The Company met the identified conditions for such reliance throughout the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 without exception.

## REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Member of
Pilot Hill Capital LLC

We have reviewed management's statements included in the accompanying Broker Dealers Annual Exemption Report in which (1) Pilot Hill Capital LLC did not claim an exemption from Rule 15c3-3 in reliance upon Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release, and (2) Pilot Hill Capital LLC stated that Pilot Hill Capital LLC met the identified conditions for such reliance throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. Pilot Hill Capital 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 Pilot Hill Capital 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 Footnote 74 of the 2013 Release.
