Notes to Financial Statement  
December 31, 2022---

## 1. Organization and Nature of Business

CG Compass (USA) LLC (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of Delaware on October 1, 2003 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Compass Group Holdings Inc. (the “Parent”). The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). The Company was granted registration as a broker dealer on May 26, 2004. The Company earns commissions and markups on trading equity and fixed income securities and trailers and loads on mutual funds. Client funds are held in the name of each client at Pershing LLC (the “Clearing Firm” or “Pershing”) and the Company does not engage in proprietary trading activities.

The Company participates in a variety of financial and administrative transactions with related parties and affiliates. Though generally at commercial rates, it is possible that because of these relationships, the terms of some of these transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

## 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

### Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The accounting policies and reporting practices of the Company conform to the predominant practices in the broker-dealer industry.

### Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statement in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 date of the financial statement, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain amounts included in the financial statement are estimated based on currently available information and management’s judgment as to the outcome of future conditions and circumstances. Changes in the status of certain facts or circumstances could result in material changes to the estimates used in the preparation of the financial statement and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions. Every effort is made to ensure the integrity of such estimates.

### Government and Other Regulation

A broker-dealer of securities 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 applicable requirements of these organizations. As a registered broker-dealer, the Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s net capital rule (Rule 15c3-1) which requires that the Company maintain a minimum net capital, as defined.

### Cash

For purposes of presentation on both the Statement of financial condition and the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid instruments, with original maturities of three months or less that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business, to be cash. At December 31, 2022, cash consists of cash held in checking and savings bank accounts in the amount of $181,168. Cash balances may, at a limited number of banks and financial institutions, periodically exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions and primarily in funds that are insured by the United States federal government.

## 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

### Other Assets

Other assets include prepaid expenses and deposits with vendors.

### Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash, receivables from clearing organization, due from parent, due from affiliates, other receivables, other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, payable to clearing organization, due to affiliates and due to parent are all recorded at the contractual amounts, which approximates fair value. These financial instruments are generally short term in nature and approximate market rates.

### Accounts Payable and Accrued liabilities

Accounts payable and accrued expenses include accruals for employee related compensation, employee benefits and third-party services, as well as other payables.

### Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and generally would not incur income taxes or have any unrecognized tax benefits. Instead, its earnings and losses are included in the tax return of its member and taxed depending on the member's tax situation. As a result, the financial statement do not reflect a provision for income taxes.

The Company recognizes, and measures tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax return based on their technical merit and assesses the likelihood that the positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. Interest and penalties on tax liabilities, if any, would be recorded in expenses.

The U.S. Federal jurisdiction, New York and Florida are the major tax jurisdictions where the Company files income tax returns. The Company is generally no longer subject to U.S. Federal examinations by tax authorities for years before 2019. No interest expense or penalties have been assessed for the year ended December 31, 2022.

## 3. Receivables from clearing organization

The Company has an agreement with Pershing LLC ('Pershing') to provide execution and clearing services on behalf of its customers on a fully disclosed basis. All customer records and accounts are maintained by Pershing. Pershing is a member of various stock exchanges and is subject to the rules and regulations of such organizations as well as those of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Receivables from the clearing broker include amounts due on proprietary unsettled cash and margin transactions and commissions earned.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company has the following receivables from clearing organization as reflected on the accompanying statement of financial condition:

| Receivables | $1,229,887 |
| --- | --- |
| Clearing deposit | 250,000 |
| Total | $1,479,887 |

4. Transactions with Related Parties

The Company is part of a larger financial services organization and routinely conducts intercompany and related party transactions with the Parent and certain affiliates as defined by service agreements.

Transactions with Parent

As of December 31, 2022, the receivable due from the Parent to the Company totaled $201,630. This receivable is for pre-payment of payroll, office expenses, and various other operational expenses that will be paid by the Parent on the Company's behalf in the first quarter of 2023.

Transactions with Affiliated Entities

Affiliates of the Company receive and provide support services from/to the Company under service level agreements that define the services to be provided to/by those affiliates and the basis upon which the Company will reimburse them or be reimbursed for expenses incurred in providing those services.

The Company shares its office space as well as various administrative services with affiliates of the Company. The Company entered into an expense sharing agreement whereby all expenses associated with the operations of the Company paid by the affiliated entity were charged to the Company. Under the agreement, certain expenses of the affiliated entity such as payroll costs, rent and office expenses are allocated to the Company at cost as well as all direct expenses of the Company paid on behalf of the Company.

The Company has entered into service agreements with companies affiliated through common ownership under which the Company earns fees for providing various introductory, brokerage, administrative, and other professional services as defined by service agreements.

As for December 31, 2022, the Company has the following balances reflected on the accompanying statement of financial condition with affiliated entities:

| Due from affiliates |  |
| --- | --- |
| Introductory, brokerage, administrative, other services provided by the Company | $127,664 |

| Professional services provided to the Company | 33,772 |

Notes to Financial Statement

## 5. Concentration of Credit Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company encounters economic risk, mainly comprised of credit risk and market risk. Credit risk arises from the customer securities activities which are transacted on either cash or margin basis. These transactions may expose the Company to off-balance-sheet risk in the event the customer is unable to fulfill its contracted obligations and margin requirements are not sufficient to fully cover losses which customers may incur. In the event the customer fails to satisfy its obligations, the Company may be required to purchase or sell financial instruments at prevailing market prices in order to fulfill those obligations. In connection with its clearing arrangements, the Company is required to guarantee the performance of its customers in meeting their contracted obligations.

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of customers are engaged in similar business activities, activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions.

As a securities broker and dealer, the Company is engaged in various brokerage and trading activities with domestic and international investors. The Company attempts to minimize credit risk associated with these activities by monitoring customer credit exposure and collateral values on a daily basis and requiring additional collateral to be deposited with or returned to the Company when necessary. The credit risk is also minimized by the careful monitoring of customer accounts by the clearing firm.

At various times during the year, the Company has maintained deposits with other financial institutions in excess of amounts insured. The exposure to the Company from these transactions is solely dependent upon daily balances and the financial strength of the respective institutions.

## 6. Regulatory Requirements

The Company, as a registered broker-dealer in securities, is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1 (and the rule of the 'applicable' exchange also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1). At December 31, 2022, the Company had net capital of $1,169,316 which was $1,140,937 in excess of its required net capital of $28,379. At December 31, 2022, the ratio of Aggregate Indebtedness to Net Capital was .36 to 1.

The Company is exempt from the provisions of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as the Company does not hold customers' cash or securities.

## 7. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is exposed to various asserted and unasserted potential claims encountered in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

## 8. Subsequent Events

The Company has considered subsequent events and transactions through February 27, 2023, the date the financial statement was issued, noting no material events requiring disclosure or recognition in the Company's financial statement.

# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Member of

CG Compass (USA) LLC

(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Compass Group Holdings Inc.)

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report for SEA Rule 17a-5(d)(4), in which (1) CG Compass (USA) LLC identified the following provisions of 17 C.F.R. §15c3-3(k) under which CG Compass (USA) LLC claimed an exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3:(k)(2)(ii) (the "exemption provisions") and (2) CG Compass (USA) LLC stated that CG Compass (USA) LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. CG Compass (USA) 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 CG Compass (USA) 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.
