Page 4 of 60 Disclosure Brochure Assets are managed on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Investment strategies and recommendations are tailored to the individual needs of each Client but generally consist of an asset allocation consistent with: • Income with Capital Preservation. Designed as a longer-term accumulation account, this investment objective is considered generally the most conservative. Emphasis is placed on generation of current income with minimal risk of capital loss. Lowering the risk generally means lowering the potential income and overall return. • Income with Moderate Growth. This investment objective emphasizes generation of current income with a secondary focus on moderate capital growth. • Growth with Income. This investment objective emphasizes modest capital growth with some focus on generation of current income. • Growth. This investment objective emphasizes achieving high long-term growth and capital appreciation. • Aggressive Growth. This investment objective emphasizes aggressive growth and maximum capital appreciation, with no focus on generation of current income. This objective has an extremely high level of risk and is for investors with a longer timer horizon. At no time will Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC accept or maintain custody of a Client’s funds or securities. All Client assets will be managed within their designated brokerage account pursuant to the Client investment advisory agreement on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. • Investment advice is not limited to certain investment types. • A minimum total investment amount is generally not required. • Advisory services are tailored to the individual need of each Client. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC Wrap Fee Program Compass Financial Advisory Services offers a comprehensive, open-architecture, fee-based investment platform to offer Clients customized advice and service. The program provides a foundation to develop long-term financial goals and provide potential solutions. Clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities. Compass Financial Advisory Services acts as the sponsor and portfolio manager. As the sponsor, Compass Financial Advisory Services provides regular and continuous management and advice to clients regarding the allocation of assets. The assets typically consist of mutual funds and ETFs. The cost to manage an account, advisory fees and transaction expenses are “wrapped” into a combined fee; however, additional account level Page 5 of 60 Disclosure Brochure fees are disclosed in the account opening documents and fund prospectuses. • Please see Appendix 1 –Wrap Fee Program Brochure, which is included as a supplement to this Disclosure Brochure for additional details. Client Account Management Prior to engaging Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into an investment advisory agreement with that defines the terms, conditions, authority, and responsibilities. Assets Under Management Assets under management will be amended within 90 days of the fiscal year end of December 31st. Assets under Management (12/31/2024) Discretionary $440,799,093 Non-Discretionary $2,953,422 Total $443,752,515 Retirement Plan Rollovers An employee generally has four (4) options for their retirement plan when they leave an employer: 1. Leave the money in his/her former employer’s plan, if permitted 2. Rollover the assets to his/her new employer’s plan if one is available and permitted 3. Rollover to an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), or 4. Cash out the account value, which has significant tax considerations Each of these options has advantages and disadvantages and before making a change we encourage you to speak with your CPA and/or tax attorney. If you are considering rolling over your retirement funds to an IRA for us to manage here are a few points to consider before you do so: • Determine whether the investment options in your employer's retirement plan address your needs or whether you might want to consider other types of investments. • Employer retirement plans generally have a more limited investment menu than IRAs but may have lower fees than our fees. • Employer retirement plans may have unique investment options not available to the public such as employer securities, or previously closed funds. Page 6 of 60 Disclosure Brochure If you elect to roll the assets to an IRA that is subject to our management, we will charge you an asset-based fee as set forth in the agreement you executed with our firm. This practice presents a conflict of interest because Investment Advisor Representatives have an incentive to recommend a rollover to you for the purpose of generating fee-based compensation rather than solely based on your needs. You are under no obligation, contractually or otherwise, to complete the rollover. Moreover, if you do complete the rollover, you are under no obligation to have the assets in an IRA managed by our firm. Many employers permit former employees to keep their retirement assets in their company plan. Also, current employees can sometimes move assets out of their company plan before they retire or change jobs. In determining whether to complete the rollover to an IRA, and to the extent the following options are available, you should consider the costs and benefits of each. An employee will typically be investing only in mutual funds, you should understand the cost structure of the share classes, available in your employer's retirement plan and how the costs of those share classes compare with those available in an IRA. Clients should understand the various products and services they might take advantage of at an IRA provider and the potential costs of those products and services. • Our strategy may have higher risk than the option(s) provided to you in your plan. • Your current plan may also offer financial advice. • If you keep your assets titled in a 401k or retirement account, participants could potentially delay their required minimum distribution. • A 401(k) may offer more liability protection than a rollover IRA; each state may vary. • Participants may be able to take out a loan on your 401k, but not from an IRA. • IRA assets can be accessed any time; however, distributions are subject to ordinary income tax and may also be subject to a 10% early distribution penalty unless they qualify for an exception such as disability, higher education expenses or the purchase of a home. • If company stock is owned in a plan, participants may be able to liquidate those shares at a lower capital gains tax rate. • Plans may allow Advisor to be hired as the manager and keep the assets titled in the plan name. Generally, federal law protects assets in qualified plans from creditors. Since 2005, IRA assets have been generally protected from creditors in bankruptcies. However, there can be some exceptions to the general rules Page 7 of 60 Disclosure Brochure so you should consult with an attorney if you are concerned about protecting your retirement plan assets from creditors. It is important to understand the differences between these types of accounts and to decide whether a rollover is the best option. Prior to proceeding, if you have questions contact your Investment Adviser Representative, or call our home office as listed on the cover page of this brochure. When Advisor provides investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or individual retirement account, we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. The way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests, so we operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. Under this special rule’s provisions, we must: • Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations (give prudent advice); • Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations (give loyal advice); • Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees, and investments; • Follow policies and procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best interest; • Charge no more than is reasonable for our services; and • Give you basic information about conflicts of interest. Advisor also provides educational services to retirement plan participants with assets that could potentially be rolled-over to an IRA advisory account. Education is based on a particular Client’s financial circumstances and best interests. Again, Advisor has an incentive to recommend such a rollover based on the compensation received, which is mitigated by the fiduciary duty to act in a Client’s best interest and acting accordingly. Retirement Plan Participant-level, Non-fiduciary Services Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC can provide non-fiduciary, educational services to plan participants. In offering any such services, the IAR is not acting as a fiduciary under ERISA and will act solely within the Department of Labor’s Interpretive Bulletin 96-1 providing education only. Insurance Products Investment advisor representatives of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC can also be insurance agents to sell insurance products for commission compensation. Client portfolios are initially reviewed to determine the degree of market exposure compared to their risk profile and income needs. If in a client’s best interest, Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will recommend that a portion of a client’s total portfolio include an insurance product with features not otherwise available in a portfolio of only securities. Insurance products are only recommended to clients where we believe, after careful review, that the product is in a client’s best interest; insurance products are therefore not recommended to all clients. Page 8 of 60 Disclosure Brochure Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will evaluate the features and costs of existing insurance products before recommending the purchase of a new product. It certain cases, a replacement of an existing product will be in the client’s best interest based on the product features and overall cost consideration. The commission compensation for the sale of insurance products, paid by the insurance carrier (not the client), can appear significantly greater in some instances and can be paid entirely upfront. However, the services for most client accounts is over a 14 to 15 year time-frame where the firm is committed to providing on-going services with no additional compensation. The specific amount of a commission payment is not required to be disclosed; however, each client is provided a PTE 84-24 Disclosure and Acknowledgement Form that details the commissions paid by the insurance carrier. The commission payment does not reduce the amount of funds invested by a client. Clients are encouraged to ask if they have any additional questions. Investment Advisor Representatives of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC, when acting in the capacity of an insurance agent still have a fiduciary duty to act in a client’s best interest. Financial Planning Services Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC, provides financial planning. The type of planning can vary greatly depending on the scope and complexity of an individual’s financial situation. Examples of the type of planning available include but are not limited to the following: • Retirement Planning – The ongoing process of defining retirement income goals and the actions necessary to attain stated goals. This planning also includes identifying all sources of income and determining annual expenses while managing assets and risk. • Investment Planning – Planning that implements an investment strategy to utilize financial resources to meet stated financial goals consistent with objectives, time horizons, and risk tolerances. • Tax Planning – Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will generally consult with the client’s outside tax professional during the financial planning process with the objective of utilizing the most tax efficient plan to maximize overall goals. • Insurance and Asset Protection Planning – Precautionary planning that shelters you and your loved ones from unexpected financial loss. This type of planning satisfies the ongoing financial needs of survivors such as housing, child care, and education funding. • Legacy and Wealth Transfer Planning – Planning that focuses on the most efficient and tax friendly options to pass an estate to a spouse, other family members, or a charity. Prior to engaging the firm to provide stand-alone planning or consulting services, Clients are required to enter into an Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the engagement (including termination), describing Page 9 of 60 Disclosure Brochure the scope of the services to be provided, and the portion of the fee that is due from the Client prior to the firm commencing services. Item 5 – Fees and Compensation Investment Management Fees are paid quarterly and will generally not exceed 1% of assets under management unless the scope, complexity, amount of time or expertise required warrant a higher fee. Asset Management Fees are charged in arrears based on the first full quarter as follows: November, December and January February, March and April May, June and July August, September and October billed end of February billed end of May billed end of August billed end of November • Clients will receive quarterly statements from the Custodian that provides details of the advisory fees. • If the advisory agreement is terminated before the end of the quarterly period, Client is entitled to a pro- rated refund of any pre-paid quarterly advisory fee based on the number of days remaining in the quarter after the termination date. • Asset management fees are exclusive of and in addition to, brokerage fees, transaction fees, and other related costs and expenses. • The firm will not have the authority or responsibility to value portfolio securities. Mutual Fund Share Class Disclosures Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC strives to select the lowest cost share class available; however, certain mutual fund share classes charge a 12b-1 fee that generally amounts to an additional .25% expense ratio or more. The purpose of 12b-1 fees, as approved by the SEC, are to cover marketing expenses and shareholder services such as support services and “other expenses” such as legal, accounting and the administrative functions of the custodian. When selecting a mutual fund, Investment Advisor Representatives have a fiduciary duty to choose the share class that helps manage the overall fee structure of the account. The entire fee structure includes such fees as the asset management fee, the expense ratio and ticket charges. • Mutual funds typically offer multiple share classes, including lower-cost share classes that do not charge 12b-1 fees and are therefore usually less expensive. • Investment Advisor Representatives will consider investing Client funds in 12b-1 fee-paying share classes even when a lower-cost share class is available as appropriate to account for the overall fee Page 10 of 60 Disclosure Brochure structure and tax considerations as well as attributes of a fund not available for lesser fees. Financial Planning Financial planning is offered at no cost and no obligation to determine the appropriate fee-based planning service to be considered. Compensation for Sales of Securities Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not receive commission compensation for advisory services. Compensation for the sale of Insurance Products Investment Advisor Representatives of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC can receive commissions and other compensation from insurance companies and insurance intermediaries for the sale of insurance products. Commission rates differ from product to product and carrier to carrier. In addition to commissions, Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC and its representatives can also receive marketing support, reasonable meals and entertainment, and costs to attend training, conferences, and events hosted by insurance companies and third-party marketing organizations that are contracted with and receive compensation from the insurance company. Insurance commissions and other benefits are significant sources of compensation and are paid separately from advisory fees on assets in a client’s managed securities account. Commissions are generally paid up-front, at the time of sale, unlike asset-based fees which are paid periodically over the course of the relationship. This amount and form of insurance compensation creates a conflict of interest in that investment advisor representatives in their individual capacity as insurance agents are incentivized to recommend insurance products based on the compensation received rather than on a client’s needs. Investment Advisor Representatives in their individual capacity of insurance agents are not required to offer the products of a specific insurance company. Any compensation received is separate from, and does not offset regular advisory fees. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not charge advisory fees on insurance products. Clients are under no obligation to implement any recommendations, and have the option to implement such recommendations through brokers or agents of their choice. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC addresses the conflict of interest related to insurance products sales by requiring its investment advisor representatives to act in the best interest of the client, including when acting as insurance agents. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC and insurance-licensed investment advisor representatives employ a process of analyzing each customer’s financial situation, needs, goals and risk profile for the purpose of making recommendations that are based on an objective evaluation of each client’s best interest rather than on the receipt of any commissions or other benefits. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will disclose in advance how it or its supervised persons are compensated and will disclose conflicts of Page 11 of 60 Disclosure Brochure interest involving any advice or service provided. At no time will an advisory client be required to use the insurance or other services recommended by Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC. Other Fees and Expenses Clients will incur transaction charges for trades executed in a non-Wrap Fee account. These transaction fees are separate from our fees. Also, Clients will pay the following separately incurred expenses, which we do not receive any part of: charges imposed directly by a mutual fund, index fund, or exchange traded fund which shall be disclosed in the fund’s prospectus (i.e., fund management fees and other fund expenses). If a Client’s assets are invested in mutual funds or other pooled investment products, Clients should be aware that there will be two layers of advisory fees and expenses for those assets. Client will pay an advisory fee to the fund manager and other expenses as a shareholder of the fund. Client will also pay Advisor the advisory fee with respect to those assets. Most of the mutual funds available in the program may be purchased directly. Therefore, Clients could generally avoid the second layer of fees by not using the management services of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC and by making their own investment decisions. Further information regarding fees assessed by a mutual fund is available in the appropriate prospectus. Termination A contract between Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC and a Client may be cancelled at any time and billing will be stopped as soon as reasonable efforts allow. Clients will be given this brochure form ADV Part 2A, forty-eight hours in advance of signing an agreement or they will have five business days to unconditionally cancel the agreement. Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not accept performance-based fees, fees based on a share of capital gains on or capital appreciation of the assets of a Client (such as a Client that is a hedge fund or other pooled investment vehicle). Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC also does not participate in side-by-side management, where an advisor manages accounts that are both charged a performance-based fee and accounts that are charged another type of fee, such as an hourly or flat fee or an asset-based fee. Item 7 – Types of Clients The advisory services offered by Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC are available for individuals, individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), and profit-sharing plans, including plans subject to Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and other business entities. Page 12 of 60 Disclosure Brochure Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC emphasizes continuous and regular account supervision. The Client’s individual investment strategy is tailored to their specific needs and may include some or all of the previously mentioned securities. Each portfolio will be initially designed to meet a particular investment goal, which we determine to be suitable to the Client’s circumstances. Once the appropriate portfolio has been determined, it is subject to review and if necessary, rebalanced based upon the Client’s individual needs, stated goals and objectives. Each Client can place reasonable restrictions on the types of investments to be held in the portfolio. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC uses multiple forms of research to analyze financial data and market conditions such as the general financial health of a company, and/or the analysis of management or competitive advantages, past market data (primarily price and volume), business cycles as well as patterns and trends. The firm also conducts the following types of analysis to make investment decisions. • Fundamental Analysis - Fundamental analysis utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. These criteria consist generally of ratios and trends that may indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the entity being analyzed. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to indicate that they are a strong investment with a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the firm in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in the fundamental analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The firm monitors these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. • Asset Allocation - Rather than focusing primarily on securities selection, we attempt to identify an appropriate ratio of equities, fixed income, and cash suitable to the client's investment goals and risk tolerance, and we seek to create a portfolio to maximize potential return relative to portfolio risk. A risk of asset allocation is that the client may not participate in sharp increases in a particular security, industry or market sector. Another risk is that the ratio of equities, fixed income, and cash will change over time due to stock and market movements. Clients with a Compass Plan™ utilizing Publix Super Markets, Inc. Supermarket stock generally diversify from a very concentrated stock position in the company retirement plans upon retirement. Over time though, this concentrated stock position will be accumulated again based upon long-term withdrawals from the income portion of the portfolio. • Mutual Fund and/or ETF Analysis - We look at the experience and track record of the manager of the mutual fund or exchange traded fund (ETF) in an attempt to determine if the manager has demonstrated an ability to invest over a period of time and in different economic conditions. We also Page 13 of 60 Disclosure Brochure look at the underlying assets in a mutual fund or ETF in an attempt to determine if there is significant overlap in the underlying investments held in another fund(s) in the client's portfolio. A risk of mutual fund and/or ETF analysis is that, as in all securities investments, past performance does not guarantee future results. A manager who has been successful may not be able to replicate that success in the future. In addition, as we do not control the underlying investments in a fund or ETF, managers of different funds held by the client may purchase the same security, increasing the risk to the client if that security were to fall in value. There is also a risk that a manager may deviate from the stated investment mandate or strategy of the fund or ETF, which could make the holding(s) less suitable for the client's portfolio. Risk of Loss Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities can fluctuate in value or lose value up to the entire principal amount invested. Clients should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will assist Clients in determining an appropriate strategy based on their tolerance for risk and other factors noted above. However, there is no guarantee that a Client will meet their investment goals. While the methods of analysis help the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in these methods of analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. Investment Advisor Representatives monitor economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. Each Client engagement will entail a review of the Client's investment goals, financial situation, time horizon, tolerance for risk and other factors to develop an appropriate strategy for managing a Client's account. Client participation in this process, including full and accurate disclosure of requested information, is essential for the analysis of a Client's account. The Advisor shall rely on the financial and other information provided by the Client or their designees without the duty or obligation to validate the accuracy and completeness of the provided information. It is the responsibility of the Client to inform the Advisor of any changes in financial condition, goals or other factors that may affect this analysis. The risks associated with a particular strategy are provided to each Client in advance of investing Client accounts. The Advisor will work with each Client to determine their tolerance for risk as part of the portfolio construction process. The firms’ methods of analysis and investment strategies do not represent any significant or unusual risks however all strategies have inherent risks and performance limitations. However, Clients should be aware of the following types of risks that apply to investing and are encouraged to discuss the specific risks applicable to their account holdings: • Business Risk – the measure of risk associated with a particular security. It is also known as unsystematic risk and refers to the risk associated with a specific issuer of a security. Generally speaking, all businesses in the same industry have similar types of business risk. More specifically, Page 14 of 60 Disclosure Brochure business risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a particular company stock or a bond may go bankrupt or be unable to pay the interest or principal in the case of bonds. • Call Risk – the risk specific to bond issues and refers to the possibility that a debt security will be called prior to maturity. Call risk usually goes hand in hand with reinvestment risk because the bondholder must find an investment that provides the same level of income for equal risk. Call risk is most prevalent when interest rates are falling, as companies trying to save money will usually redeem bond issues with higher coupons and replace them on the bond market with issues with lower interest rates. • Credit Risk – the risk that an investor could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security is unable or unwilling to meet its financial obligations. • Currency/Exchange Rate Risk – the risk of a change in the price of one currency against another. • Inflationary Risk – the risk that future inflation will cause the purchasing power of cash flow from an investment to decline. • Interest Rate Risk – the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of an increase in interest rates; a bond or a fixed income fund with a longer duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a bond or bond fund with a shorter duration. • Legislative Risk – the risk of a legislative ruling resulting in adverse consequences. • Liquidity Risk – the possibility that an investor may not be able to buy or sell an investment as and when desired or in sufficient quantities because opportunities are limited. • Market Risk – the risk that the value of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries. • Pandemic Risk – Large-scale outbreaks of infectious disease that can greatly increase morbidity and mortality over a wide geographic area, crossing international boundaries, and causing significant economic, social, and political disruption. • Reinvestment Risk – the risk that falling interest rates will lead to a decline in cash flow from an investment when its principal and interest payments are reinvested at lower rates. • Social/Political – the possibility of nationalization, unfavorable government action or social changes resulting in a loss of value. Page 15 of 60 Disclosure Brochure • Taxability Risk – the risk that a security that was issued with tax-exempt status could potentially lose that status prior to maturity. Since municipal bonds carry a lower interest rate than fully taxable bonds, the bond holders would end up with a lower after-tax yield than originally planned. • Transparency Risk – the risk of not having ready access to required financial information about a company, such as price levels, market depth, and audited financial reports. All investments involve varying degrees of risk, and it should not be assumed that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal any specific performance level(s). Investing in securities and other investments involve a risk of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to discuss these risks with the Advisor. Types of Investments Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC generally manages Client portfolios that consist of mutual funds, Exchange Traded Equities (ETFs) and limited individual securities. • Mutual Funds – a pool of funds collected from many investors for the purpose of investing in securities such as stocks, bonds, money market instruments and similar assets. o Open-End Mutual Funds – a type of mutual fund that does not have restrictions on the amount of shares the fund will issue and will buy back shares when investors wish to sell. Investing in mutual funds carries the risk of capital loss and thus Clients may lose money investing in mutual funds. All mutual funds have costs that lower investment returns. The funds can be of bond “fixed income” nature (lower risk) or stock “equity” nature. o Closed-End Mutual Funds – a type of mutual fund that raises a fixed amount of capital through an initial public offering (IPO). The fund is then structured, listed, and traded like a stock on a stock exchange. Clients should be aware that closed-end funds available within the program are not readily marketable. In an effort to provide income or liquidity, the funds may offer to repurchase a certain percentage of shares at net asset value on a periodic basis. Thus, Clients may be unable to liquidate all or a portion of their shares in these types of funds. o Alternative Strategy Mutual Funds – Certain mutual funds available in the program invest primarily in alternative investments and/or strategies. Investing in alternative investments and/or strategies may not be suitable for all investors and involves special risks, such as risks associated with commodities, real estate, leverage, selling securities short, the use of derivatives, potential adverse market forces, regulatory changes, and potential illiquidity. There are special risks associated with mutual funds that invest principally in real estate securities, such as sensitivity to Page 16 of 60 Disclosure Brochure changes in real estate values and interest rates and price volatility because of the fund’s concentration in the real estate industry. • Equity – An investment that generally refers to buying shares of stocks in return for receiving a future payment of dividends and/or capital gains if the value of the stock increases. The value of equity securities may fluctuate in response to specific situations for each company, industry conditions and the general economic environment. • Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) – An ETF is a portfolio of securities invested to track a market index like an index mutual fund, but the shares are traded on an exchange like an equity. An ETF share price fluctuates intraday depending on market conditions instead of having a net asset value (NAV) that is calculated once at the end of the day. The shares may trade at a premium or discount; and as a result, investors pay when purchasing shares and receive more or less than when selling shares. The supply of ETF shares is regulated through a mechanism known as creation and redemption that involves large specialized investors, known as authorized participants (APs). Authorized participants are large financial institutions with a high degree of buying power, such as market makers, banks, or investment companies that provide market liquidity. When there is a shortage of shares in the market, the authorized participant creates more (creation). Conversely, the authorized participant will reduce shares in circulation (redemption) when supply falls short of demand. Multiple authorized participants help improve the liquidity of an ETF and stabilize the share price. To the extent that authorized participants cannot or are otherwise unwilling to engage in creation and redemption transactions, shares of an ETF tend to trade at a significant discount or premium and may face trading halts and delisting from the exchange. The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the complete loss of principal. ETFs also have a trading risk based on cost inefficiency if the ETFs are actively traded and a liquidity risk if the ETFs have a large price spread and low trading volume. In addition, investors buying or selling shares in the secondary market pay brokerage commissions, which is a cost not incurred by mutual funds. Like mutual funds, shares of an ETF represent partial ownership of an underlying portfolio of securities. • Cash Positions – Based on perceived or anticipated market conditions and/or events, certain assets can be taken out of the market and held in a defensive cash position. All cash may be included as assets subject to the agreed upon advisory fee. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC, generally invest Client’s cash balances in money market funds, FDIC Insured Certificates of Deposit, high-grade commercial paper and/or government backed debt instruments. Ultimately, the firm tries to achieve a reasonable return on our Client’s cash balances through relatively low-risk conservative investments. Additional types of investments will be considered per Client for asset allocation and risk management purposes. Page 17 of 60 Disclosure Brochure Item 9 – Disciplinary Information There are no legal, regulatory, or disciplinary events involving Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC or any of its Supervised Persons. Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Insurance Agency Affiliations Certain Advisory Persons are also licensed insurance professionals. Implementation of insurance recommendations are separate and apart from one’s role with Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC. As an insurance professional, customary commissions and other related revenues are received from the various insurance companies whose products are sold. Commissions generated by insurance sales do not offset regular advisory fees. This causes a conflict of interest in recommending certain products of the insurance companies. Clients are under no obligation to implement any recommendations made by the Investment Advisor Representative in their capacity as an insurance agent. This chart is intended to explain the potential capacity a Financial Advisor can serve, and the type of compensation received. Capacity Compensation Investment Advisor Representatives Advisory Fees Insurance Agent Commissions Conflicts of interests exist because securities and insurance sales create an incentive to recommend products based on the compensation earned rather than the best interests of the Client. Such potential conflicts of interest are subject to review by the Chief Compliance Officer. Neither Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC nor any of the management persons are registered or has a registration pending to register as a futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, a commodity trading advisor, or an associated person of the foregoing entities. Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Code of Ethics Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines our fiduciary commitment to each Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with the firm (our “Supervised Persons”). The Code was developed to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding our duties to you, our Client. The firm and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness, and good faith towards each Client. It is the obligation of the firm’s Supervised Persons to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the Code, but also to the general principles that guide the Code. The Code covers a range of Page 18 of 60 Disclosure Brochure topics that address employee ethics and conflicts of interest. To request a copy of our Code, please contact us at (386) 673-5191or by email at tara@compassadvisory.us. Personal Trading with Material Interest Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not act as principal in any transactions. In addition, the firm does not act as the general partner of a fund or advise an investment company. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not have a material interest in any securities traded in Client accounts. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC allows our Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and purchased on behalf of Clients. Owning the same securities, we recommend (purchase or sell) to you presents a conflict of interest that, as fiduciaries, we must disclose to you and mitigate through policies and procedures. As noted above, we have adopted a Code of Ethics to address insider trading (material non-public information controls); gifts and entertainment; outside business activities and personal securities reporting. Personal Trading at Same Time as Client Supervised Persons may not purchase or sell any security immediately prior to or immediately after a transaction being implemented for an advisory account, thereby preventing an employee from benefiting from transactions placed on behalf of advisory accounts. Item 12 – Brokerage Practices Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC will recommend that Clients establish a brokerage account with Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC to maintain custody of assets and to effect trades. Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC provides brokerage and custodial services to independent investment advisory firms, including Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC. Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC is compensated by Clients through commissions, trails, or other transaction-based fees for trades that are executed through Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC. 1. Soft Dollars - Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker/dealers whereby an advisor enters into an agreement to place security trades with the broker in exchange for research and other services. Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC makes available various products and services designed to assist the firm in managing and administering Client accounts. These services include software and other technology that provide access to Client account data (such as trade confirmation and account statements); facilitation of trade execution (and research reports or other information about particular companies or industries; economic surveys, data and analyses; financial publications; portfolio evaluation services; financial database software and services; computerized news and pricing services; quotation equipment for use in running software used in investment decision-making. These support services are provided based on the overall relationship without a minimum production level or value of assets held with the custodian. Consequently, it is not the result of soft dollar arrangements or any other Page 19 of 60 Disclosure Brochure express arrangements that involve the execution of Client transactions as a condition to receive the services. 2. Brokerage Referrals - Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not receive any compensation from any third party in connection with the recommendation for establishing a brokerage account. 3. Transaction Fees -The Custodian charges brokerage commissions and transaction fees for effecting certain securities transactions (i.e., transaction fees are charged for certain no-load mutual funds, commissions are charged for individual equity and debt securities transactions). The Custodian enables Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC to obtain many no-load mutual funds without transaction charges and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. The Custodian’s commission rates are generally discounted from customary retail commission rates. However, the commission and transaction fees charged by the Custodians may be higher or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker/dealers. 4. Best Execution - In seeking best execution, the determinative factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution, taking into consideration the full range of a broker/dealer’s services, including the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. Accordingly, although we will seek competitive rates, to the benefit of all Clients, we may not necessarily obtain the lowest possible commission rates for specific Client account transactions. 5. Aggregating and Allocating Trades - The primary objective in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities for Client accounts is to obtain the most favorable net results taking into account such factors as price, size of order and difficulty of execution. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not aggregate purchases and sales for various Client accounts, but orders can be aggregated by the custodian. 6. Cash Sweep Program - Investment portfolios often include a cash allocation to maintain liquidity, manage risk, and provide funds for opportunistic investments. Cash allocations can serve as a buffer against market volatility and ensure funds are readily available for future investment opportunities or withdrawals. Sweep programs automatically transfer uninvested cash from a brokerage account into a money market fund or other short-term investment vehicle at the custodian. This process is automated and occurs regularly, often at the end of each business day. While the cash is held in the sweep account, it earns interest. This ensures that even idle cash generates some return, albeit typically lower than other investment options. By automating cash movement, sweep programs reduce the need for manual transfers, saving time and minimizing the risk of human error in managing cash balances. Sweep accounts provide quick access to cash for reinvestment or withdrawals, enhancing liquidity management within the portfolio. Minimizing manual cash management tasks reduces administrative burdens for investors and advisors, allowing them to focus on strategic investment decisions. Sweep programs often offer lower interest rates than short-term investments like high-yield savings accounts or CDs. This is Page 20 of 60 Disclosure Brochure due to their liquidity and convenience. While convenient, the lower interest rates mean that investors can miss out on higher returns if cash is kept in the sweep account for extended periods. The advisor uses sweep programs strategically to manage cash flows within a portfolio, ensuring that cash is readily available for investment opportunities without sacrificing significant returns. Sweep accounts can also be used to facilitate regular transactions, such as automatic withdrawals for living expenses or periodic investments in other asset classes. While sweep programs offer convenience and liquidity, they require careful consideration as part of an overall investment strategy. Advisors and clients should weigh the benefits of liquidity and automation against the potential for higher returns through alternative cash management strategies. Item 13 – Review of Accounts For those Clients to whom Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC provides investment advisory services, account reviews are conducted on an ongoing basis by the Investment Advisor Representative. All Clients (in person or via telephone) are encouraged to review financial planning issues (to the extent applicable), investment objectives and account performance with their Investment Advisor Representative. In addition, each Client relationship shall be reviewed at least annually. Reviews may be conducted more or less frequently at the Client’s request. Accounts may also be reviewed as a result of major changes in economic conditions, known changes in the Client’s financial situation, and/or large deposits or withdrawals in the Client’s account. The Client is encouraged to notify Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC if changes occur in the Client’s personal financial situation that might adversely affect the Client’s investment plan. Additional reviews may be triggered by material market, economic or political events. Clients will receive brokerage statements no less than quarterly from the Custodian. These brokerage statements are sent directly from the Custodian to the Client. The Client can also establish electronic access to the Custodian’s website so they can view these reports and their account activity. Client brokerage statements will include all positions, transactions and fees relating to the Client’s account[s]. Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC is a fee-based advisory firm, that is compensated by its Clients to provide investment advice and not from any investment product or someone other than the Client. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not receive commissions or other economic benefit or compensation from product sponsors, broker/dealers or any un-related third party.

Clients are advised to carefully review the information provided by the custodian and notify their Investment Advisor Representative with any questions or if such information is not received. Clients authorize the custodian by separate agreement to deduct advisory fees on behalf of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC.

This Wrap Fee Program Brochure is provided as a supplement to the firm’s Disclosure Brochure (Form ADV 2A) to provide further details of the business practices and fee structure. This Wrap Fee Program Brochure references back to the firm’s Form ADV 2A in which this Wrap Fee Program Brochure serves as an Appendix. Please see Item 4 – Advisory Services of the Form ADV 2A for details on the firm’s investment philosophy and related services. • Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC is the sponsor and portfolio manager of this Wrap Fee Program and receives investment advisory fees paid by Clients and pays the Custodian for the costs associated with the regular trading activity. • Investment advisory fees will be calculated and deducted from the Client’s account by direct agreement between the Client and Pershing Advisor Solutions, LLC. Client will receive independent statements from the Custodian. The amount due is calculated based on the following formula: (Quarter End Value x Advisory Fee) / 360) x 90 = Advance Billing. We do annual calculations and divide by 4. Account values reevaluated in May. Participation in this wrap fee program may cost more or less than purchasing such services separately. For example, a Client account with a high volume of trading is likely to benefit from the fee structure of a wrap fee program whereas a Client with a low volume of trading is likely to benefit more from a fee structure that charges a transaction fee per trade with a lower asset management fee or a brokerage account that does not charge an asset management fee for active management. Other Fees and Expenses Mutual funds and exchange-traded funds have separate operating costs that are described in each fund's prospectus. These fees and costs will generally be used to pay management fees, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage, and account reporting), and a possible distribution fee. Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC does not receive any of the fees charged by a mutual fund or ETF. A Client could invest in these products directly, without the services of Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC , but would not receive the advisory services to assist in determining which products or features are most appropriate for their financial situation and objectives. Accordingly, the Client should review the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by the firm to fully understand the total costs. Only advisory fees are retained by Compass Financial Advisory Services, LLC.
