NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued

### Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of business: TNCP, LLC (the "Company") is a limited liability company organized under the Laws of the state of Delaware on March 26, 2009. The Company is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and became a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") on October 1, 2009. The Company's revenue is derived from fees associated with advising clients on mergers and acquisitions and raising capital. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TrueNorth Capital Partners LLC (the "Sole Member").

A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies follows:

Basis of accounting: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

Cash and cash equivalents: For purposes of reporting the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances in excess of FDIC and similar insurance coverage are subject to the usual banking risks associated with funds in excess of those limits. At December 31, 2022, the Company had no uninsured cash balances.

Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable consist of fees due from customers in the amount of $0, all of which are collectible in full.

Significant Judgements: Revenues from contracts includes fees from of investment banking and advisory fees. The recognition and measurement of Revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgement 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 the 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 contracts with customers: Revenues from contracts with customers are comprised of investment banking and advisory fees. Such fees are recognized at the point in time when the Company's performance under the terms of the contractual arrangement is completed, which is typically at the close of a transaction. Reimbursed expenses related to these transactions are recorded as revenue and are included in investment banking fees. However, advisory fees for certain contracts are recognized over time as obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer as services are provided. The Company identifies the specific performance obligation associated with the contract with the customer and determines when that specific performance obligation has been satisfied, based on achievement of milestones and/or a time elapsed measure of progress. In certain transactions, the performance obligation is considered satisfied at a point in time in the future and the Company defers revenue on the balance sheet that will be recognized upon completion of the performance obligation. The Company had $10,000 in unfulfilled performance obligations at December 31, 2022.

| Total Advisory Fees | $63,500 |

Income taxes: The Company is organized as a Limited Liability Company and any income or loss flows through to the Sole Member of the Company. The financial statements, therefore, do not include a provision for income taxes.

Accounting estimates: The preparation of financial statements 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 statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

# Note 2. Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the Securities Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital requirements ("Rule 15c3-1"), which requires the maintenance of a minimum amount of net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. Rule 15c3-1 also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or member distributions made if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. At December 31, 2022, the Company had net capital of $243,755, which is $236,512 in excess of its required net capital of $7,243.

# Note 3. Related Party Transactions

The Company is allocated a portion of the shared general and administrative expenses of its Sole Member. These expenses are allocated monthly under an Expenses Sharing Agreement dated May 23, 2022. Under this Agreement, personnel costs and benefits, rent, office equipment and supplies, postage, telephone, technology expenses, office insurance and other shared expenses are allocated based on the percentage of revenues each company generates. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company was allocated expenses totaling $634,501 which are classified in their respective expense categories in the statement of operations. The amount due to member totaled $98,641 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

# Note 4. Concentrations

Five major customers accounted for 81% of total revenues earned during the year ended December 31, 2022.

# Note 5. Income Taxes

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained "when challenged" or "when examined" by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be

For the year ended December 31, 2022, management has determined that there are no material uncertain income tax positions. The Company's income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively, are subject to possible federal and state examinations, generally three years after they are filed.

# Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company does not have any commitments, guarantees or contingencies including arbitration or other litigation claims that may result in a loss or future obligation. The Company is not aware of any threats or other circumstances that may lead to the assertion of a claim at a future date.

# Note 7. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date at which these financial statements were available to be issued and determined there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustments to or disclosure in the financial statements.
