INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Members
of Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC (an Oklahoma limited
liability company) as of December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statement.
In our opinion, the balance sheet referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC as of December 31, 2025, in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of
the Financial Statement section of our report. We are required to be independent of Exencial Wealth Advisors,
LLC and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to
our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statement
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statement in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and
maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statement that is
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statement, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events,
considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC's ability to continue
as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statement is available to be issued.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement as a whole is free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a
substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a
reasonable user based on the financial statement.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to fraud or
error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is
expressed.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial
statement.
• Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that
raise substantial doubt about Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC's ability to continue as a going concern for a
reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that
we identified during the audit.

EXENCIAL WEALTH ADVISORS, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2025
A. Nature of Activities and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Basis of Presentation:
Exencial Wealth Advisors, LLC (the "Company") was formed as an Oklahoma limited liability
company on April 3, 2014, by Burns Wealth Management, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation. The
Company is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Burns Wealth
Management, Inc. owns approximately 69.6% of the members' units as of the end of the year.
The Company is an SEC-registered investment advisor and manages domestic equity and
balanced portfolios for institutional and high-net-worth individuals throughout the United States of
America. The Company currently has offices in Oklahoma, Texas, California, Connecticut, and
North Carolina.
As a limited liability company, the members are not personally liable for any of the debts,
obligations, losses, claims, or judgments on any of the liabilities of the Company, whether arising
in tort, contract, or otherwise, except as provided by law.
Accounting Standards:
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The accounting policies for these items and other
significant accounting policies of the Company are presented below. The Financial Accounting
Standards Board's ("FASS") Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification") is the official
source of authoritative, nongovernmental accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America ("US GAAP").
Accounting Estimates:
Management uses estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. Significant estimates consist of estimated fair value allocations
allocated to intangible and tangible assets and liabilities, and the estimated period of amortization
of intangible assets. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change in the
near term, and the changes could be significant to the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company primarily bills customers in advance for services quarterly. Revenue is recognized
over the term of the fee agreement. The Company records deferred revenue for the portion of
advanced billings with a service period extending beyond the reporting period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments
purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At various times during
the year, cash in the bank exceeded the federally insured limits.
Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over
their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease
term or the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The cost of property and equipment
over $5,000 is capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged directly to expenses as incurred,
while improvements are capitalized. The cost of the assets and applicable accumulated
depreciation are removed from the respective accounts when the assets are retired or disposed.
The resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. There is no written maintenance policy.
Loan Origination Fees:
Loan origination fees are amortized over ten years by the straight-line method. The effect of loan
origination fees amortization for the year ended December 31, 2025 is a decrease in the net book
value of loan origination fees, an increase in expenses, and a decrease in net income of $265,567
for the current year's amortization expense.
Income Taxes:
No provision or benefit for federal income taxes has been included in these financial statements
because taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the respective members.
The Company files federal and state partnership income tax returns in various state jurisdictions.
The Company files partnership composite returns for certain states, which results in the respective
state income taxes being remitted to the state by the Company on behalf of the respective
members.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The Company currently does not measure any of its assets or liabilities at fair value and is not
required under generally accepted accounting principles to disclose the fair value of its financial
instruments. Professional standards allow entities the irrevocable option to elect to measure
certain financial instruments and other items at fair value for the initial and subsequent
measurement on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The Company has not elected to measure
any newly acquired financial instruments at fair value. However, it may elect to measure newly
acquired financial instruments at fair value in the future.
Advertising Expense:
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Subsequent Events:
Effective February 2, 2026, the members of the Company entered into an Asset Purchase
Agreement with Savant Capital Holdings, LLC and Savant Capital, LLC (together "Savant"). The
tentative closing date is March 31, 2026, at which time any ongoing business operations of the
Company related to the sold assets will cease.
Under terms of the agreement, the Company agrees to sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver
substantially all of the client and prospective client lists and compilations of all data, analysis,
reports, and other relevant information; intellectual property, licenses and sublicenses; all rights
under each investment advisory contract between the Company and consenting clients, office
lease agreements; and all books and records of the Company and any other proprietary
information.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company retains responsibility for all liabilities of the
Company not specifically acquired by Savant. The Company intends to pay all retained liabilities,
including any debt obligations, with the proceeds of the sale.
All employees and key members of the Company have been offered employment with Savant.
The Company does not anticipate the creation of any new material obligations as a result of the
sale. The members are responsible for any tax liabilities incurred as a result of the sale.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 12, 2026, which is the date these
financial statements were available to be issued. All subsequent events requiring recognition or
disclosure have been included in these financial statements.
B. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company primarily bills customers quarterly in advance for services. Revenue is recognized
over the term of the fee agreement. The Company records deferred revenue for the portion of
advance billings with a service period extending beyond the reporting period. Wealth
management fees are calculated as a percentage of assets under management, tailored to the
size and complexity of the client's portfolio. Financial planning fees are a one-time nominal fee,
with more complex clients requiring additional and recurring planning services. Tax preparation
fees are priced according to the complexity of the client's tax needs.
The Company has contracts with customers to provide investment management services. The
Company's performance obligations are to provide a financial plan tailored to each customer's
needs and then provide an ongoing investment management service. The Company reviews and
communicates investment strategies with its customers for a fee. The transaction price (i.e.,
management fees) is determined based on the terms in the contract, which are generally based
on a percentage fee tier relative to the fair market value of the assets under management at the
beginning of each quarter. The Company recognizes revenues in the period the services are
delivered, which is when the performance obligation is considered complete.

which took place on February 17, 2023, and December 15, 2023, respectively.

H. Goodwill
The Company adopted the accounting alternative offered to nonpublic entities for the subsequent
measurement of goodwill. Following this alternative, the Company amortizes goodwill over ten
years on a straight-line basis. It only evaluates goodwill for impairment at the entity level when a
triggering event occurs. The Company adopted an accounting alternative that allows it to evaluate
goodwill impairment triggering events only at the end of each reporting period.
Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price paid over the identifiable net assets
recognized. The goodwill recorded as part of the transaction primarily reflects the value of the
Company's customer list and workforce and future potential earnings. Goodwill is amortized for
over 10 years for financial statement purposes and 15 years for tax purposes. Amortization of
goodwill was $5,707,372 for the year ended December 31, 2025. Goodwill is expected to be
amortized at approximately $5,569,738 annually from 2026 until it is fully amortized.
