families, trusts, charitable organizations, businesses and retirement plans (each referred to as a “Client”).
hemming& Wealth Management serves as a fiduciary to Clients, as defined under the applicable laws and
regulations. As a fiduciary, the Advisor upholds a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client and
seeks to mitigate potential conflicts of interest. hemming& Wealth Management’s fiduciary commitment is further
described in the Advisor’s Code of Ethics. For more information regarding the Code of Ethics, please see Item 11
– Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading.
Investment Management Services
hemming& Wealth Management works closely with each Client to identify their investment goals and objectives
as well as risk tolerance and financial situation in order to create a portfolio strategy. hemming& Wealth
Management will construct investment portfolios through the Advisor’s internal investment management and/or
the use of unaffiliated investment managers or investment platforms. Please see below.
Internal Investment Management – hemming& Wealth Management constructs investment portfolios utilizing
exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, individual equity securities, individual and fixed income securities
and other types of investments, as appropriate, to meet the needs of each Client. The Advisor may retain other
types of investments from the Client’s legacy portfolio due to fit with the overall portfolio strategy, tax-related
reasons, or other reasons as identified between the Advisor and Client.
At no time will hemming& Wealth Management accept or maintain custody of a Client’s funds or securities,
except for the limited authority as outlined in Item 15 – Custody. All Client assets will be managed within their
designated account[s] at the Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 –
Brokerage Practices for additional information.
Retirement Accounts – When the Advisor provides investment advice to Clients regarding ERISA retirement
accounts or individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), the Advisor is a fiduciary within the meaning of Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) and/or the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), as applicable,
which are laws governing retirement accounts. When deemed to be in the Client’s best interest, the Advisor will
provide investment advice to a Client regarding a distribution from an ERISA retirement account or to roll over
the assets to an IRA, or recommend a similar transaction including rollovers from one ERISA sponsored Plan to
another, one IRA to another IRA, or from one type of account to another account (e.g. commission-based
account to fee-based account). Such a recommendation creates a conflict of interest if the Advisor will earn a
new (or increase its current) advisory fee as a result of the transaction. No client is under any obligation to roll
over a retirement account to an account managed by the Advisor.

platform, Pontera Solutions, Inc. (“Pontera”), to facilitate management of held away assets such as defined
contribution plan participant accounts, with investment discretion. The platform enables the Advisor to gain
access to Client account without having access through the Client’s credentials. This independent advisor access
ensures that the Advisor will not have custody of Client funds or securities when implementing trades for the
Client. The Advisor is not affiliated with the platform in any way and receives no compensation from the platform.

planning or consulting may encompass one or more areas of need, including but not limited to, financial position,
tax considerations, employee benefits, investment analysis, insurance analysis, retirement analysis, death and
disability considerations, and estate planning.
Plans or consultations are typically completed within six months of contract date, assuming all information and
documents requested are provided promptly by the Client. Financial planning and consulting recommendations
may pose a conflict between the interests of the Advisor and the interests of the Client. Implementation of

Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
hemming& Wealth Management primarily employs fundamental analysis in developing investment strategies for
its Clients. Research and analysis from hemming& Wealth Management is derived from numerous sources,
including financial media companies, third-party research materials, Internet sources, and review of company
activities, including annual reports, prospectuses, press releases and research prepared by others.
Fundamental Analysis involves evaluating a security using real data such as company revenues, earnings, return
on equity, and profit margins to determine underlying value and potential growth. Fundamental analysis may
involve interest rate risk, market risk, business risk, and financial risk.
As noted above, hemming& Wealth Management generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its
Clients, as consistent with their financial goals. hemming& Wealth Management will typically hold all or a portion
of a security for more than a year, but may hold for shorter periods for the purpose of rebalancing a portfolio or
meeting the cash needs of Clients. At times, hemming& Wealth Management may also buy and sell positions
that are more short-term in nature, depending on the goals of the Client and/or the fundamentals of the security,
sector or asset class.
B. Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities may fluctuate in value or lose value. Clients
should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. hemming& Wealth Management 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.
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. Following are some of the risks associated with the Advisor’s investment strategies:
Market Risks

The value of a Client’s holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to companies or markets, as well as
economic, political, or social events in the U.S. and abroad. This risk is linked to the performance of the overall
financial markets.
ETF Risks
The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the ETFs
will fluctuate with the price of the underlying securities that make up the funds. In addition, ETFs have a trading
risk based on the loss of cost efficiency if the ETFs are traded actively and a liquidity risk if the ETFs have a large
bid-ask spread and low trading volume. The price of an ETF fluctuates based upon the market movements and
may dissociate from the index being tracked by the ETF or the price of the underlying investments. An ETF
purchased or sold at one point in the day may have a different price than the same ETF purchased or sold a
short time later.
Mutual Fund Risks
The performance of mutual funds is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of
the mutual funds will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities that make up the funds. The price of a
mutual fund is typically set daily therefore a mutual fund purchased at one point in the day will typically have the
same price as a mutual fund purchased later that same day.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. 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.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory or disciplinary events involving hemming& Wealth Management or its
owner. hemming& Wealth Management values the trust Clients place in the Advisor. The Advisor encourages
Clients to perform the requisite due diligence on any advisor or service provider the Client engages. The
backgrounds of the Advisor and Advisory Persons are on the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website at
www.adviserinfo.sec.gov by searching with the Advisor’s firm name or CRD# 300918.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Sub-Advisory Relationship - Broker-Dealer
hemming& Wealth Management has an agreement with MSI to provide investment consulting services to
Brokerage Customers, as noted in Item 4 – Advisory Services above. MSI compensates hemming& Wealth
Management for providing consulting services to Clients who have purchased products through MSI. This
consulting arrangement does not include assuming discretionary authority over Brokerage Customers’ brokerage
accounts or the monitoring of securities. These consulting services offered to Brokerage Customers includes a
general review of Brokerage Customers’ investment holdings, which will result in hemming& Wealth
Management’s Advisory Persons making specific securities recommendations or offering general investment
advice. This relationship presents conflicts of interest. Potential conflicts are mitigated by Brokerage Customers
consenting to receive consulting services from hemming& Wealth Management. In addition, hemming& Wealth
Management will not accept or bill for additional compensation on asset under MSI’s management, beyond the
advisory fees disclosed in Item 5 above. Advisory Persons of the Advisor will not engage or hold itself as a
registered representative of MSI, as Advisory Persons are not registered to conduct commission based activities
under a broker-dealer.
Insurance Agency Affiliations
Certain Advisory persons are also licensed insurance professionals. Implementations of insurance
recommendations are separate and apart an Advisory Person’s role with hemming& Wealth Management. As an
insurance professional, an Advisory Person will receive customary commissions and other related revenues from
the various insurance companies whose products are sold. Advisory Persons are not required to offer the
products of any particular insurance company. Commissions generated by insurance sales do not offset regular

Page 11
advisory fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest in recommending certain products of the insurance
companies. Clients are under no obligation to implement any recommendations made by the Advisor or any of its
Advisory Persons.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal
Trading
A. Code of Ethics
hemming& Wealth Management has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines the Advisor’s
fiduciary commitment to each Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with hemming& Wealth
Management (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was developed to provide general ethical guidelines and
specific instructions regarding our duties to the Client. hemming& Wealth Management and its Supervised
Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client. It is the obligation of hemming&
Wealth Management’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 topics that address employee ethics and
conflicts of interest. To request a copy of the Code, please contact the Advisor at (231) 922-2900.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
hemming& Wealth Management allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be
recommended to and purchased on behalf of Clients. hemming& Wealth Management does not act as principal
in any transactions. In addition, the Advisor does not act as the general partner of a fund, or advise an
investment company. hemming& Wealth Management does not have a material interest in any securities traded
in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
hemming& Wealth Management allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be
recommended to and purchased on behalf of Clients. Owning the same securities recommended (purchase or
sell) to Clients presents a conflict of interest that, as fiduciaries, must be disclosed to Clients and mitigated
through policies and procedures. As noted above, the Advisor has adopted the Code to address insider trading
(material non-public information controls); gifts and entertainment; outside business activities and personal
securities reporting. When trading for personal accounts, Supervised Persons has a conflict of interest if trading
in the same securities. The fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of its Clients can be violated if personal trades
are made with more advantageous terms than Client trades, or by trading based on material non-public
information. This risk is mitigated by hemming& Wealth Management requiring reporting of personal securities
trades by its Access Persons for review by the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The Advisor has also adopted
written policies and procedures to detect the misuse of material, non-public information.
D. Personal Trading at Same Time as Client
While hemming& Wealth Management allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that
may be recommended to and purchased on behalf of Clients, such trades are typically aggregated with Client
orders or traded afterward. At no time will hemming& Wealth Management, or any Supervised Person of
hemming& Wealth Management, transact in any security to the detriment of any Client.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodian[s]
hemming& Wealth Management does not have discretionary authority to select the broker-dealer/custodian for
custody and execution services. The Client will engage the broker-dealer/custodian (herein the "Custodian") to
safeguard Client assets and authorize hemming& Wealth Management to direct trades to the Custodian as
agreed upon in the investment advisory agreement. Further, hemming& Wealth Management does not have the
discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on behalf of Clients on a trade-by-trade basis.

Page 12
Where hemming& Wealth Management does not exercise discretion over the selection of the Custodian, it may
recommend the Custodian[s] to Clients. Clients are not obligated to use the recommended Custodian and will not
incur any extra fee or cost associated with using a broker-dealer/custodian not recommended by hemming&
Wealth Management. However, if the recommended Custodian is not utilized the Advisor may be limited in the
services it can provide to the Client comparable to other Clients. hemming& Wealth Management may
recommend the Custodian based on criteria such as, but not limited to, reasonableness of commissions charged
to the Client, services made available to the Client, its reputation, and/or location of the Custodian’s offices.
hemming& Wealth Management will generally recommend that Clients establish their account[s] at Fidelity
Clearing and Custody Solutions and related divisions and entities of Fidelity Investments, Inc., including National
Financial Services LLC, and Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC (collectively “Fidelity”), a FINRA-registered broker-
dealer and member SIPC. Fidelity will serve as the Client’s “qualified custodian.” hemming& Wealth Management
maintains an institutional relationship with Fidelity, whereby the Advisor receives economic benefits from Fidelity.
hemming& Wealth Management has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s]. Access to the Fidelity platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Fidelity
platform includes brokerage, custody, administrative support, record keeping, technology, and related services
designed to support registered investment advisors like hemming& Wealth Management in serving Clients.
These services are intended to serve the best interests of the Advisor’s Clients.
Fidelity may charge brokerage commissions (securities transaction fees) for effecting certain securities
transactions. Fidelity enables the Advisor to obtain certain no-load mutual funds without securities transaction
fees and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. Fidelity’s commission rates are generally
considered discounted from customary retail commission rates. However, the commissions and transaction fees
charged by Fidelity may be higher or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker-dealers. Please
see Item 14 below for additional information.
Following are additional details regarding the brokerage practices of the Advisor:
1. Soft Dollars - Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker-dealers/custodians whereby an advisor
enters into an agreement to place security trades with a broker-dealer/custodian in exchange for research and
other services. hemming& Wealth Management does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or
offered by any broker-dealer/custodian. However, the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from
Fidelity. Please see Item 14.
2. Brokerage Referrals - hemming& Wealth Management does not receive any compensation from any third
party in connection with the recommendation for establishing an account.
3. Directed Brokerage - All Clients are serviced on a “directed brokerage basis”, where hemming& Wealth
Management will place trades within the established account[s] at the Custodian designated by the Client.
Further, all Client accounts are traded within their respective account[s], unless separately instructed by the
Client. The Advisor will not engage in any principal transactions (i.e., trade of any security from or to the
Advisor’s own account) or cross transactions with other Client accounts (i.e., purchase of a security into one
Client account from another Client’s account[s]). In selecting the Custodian, hemming& Wealth Management will
not be obligated to select competitive bids on securities transactions and does not have an obligation to seek the
lowest available transaction costs. These costs are determined by the Custodian.
B. 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 considering such factors as 1) price, 2) size of the order, 3) difficulty of execution, 4)
confidentiality and 5) skill required of the Custodian. hemming& Wealth Management will execute its transactions
through the Custodian as authorized by the Client. hemming& Wealth Management may aggregate orders in a
block trade or trades when securities are purchased or sold through the Custodian for multiple (discretionary)
accounts in the same trading day. If a block trade cannot be executed in full at the same price or time, the
hemming& Wealth Management, Inc.

Phone: (231) 922-2900 | Fax : (231) 922-2904
https://hemmingwm.com
Page 13
securities actually purchased or sold by the close of each business day must be allocated in a manner that is
consistent with the initial pre-allocation or other written statement. This must be done in a way that does not
consistently advantage or disadvantage any particular Clients’ accounts.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
A. Frequency of Reviews
Securities in Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis by Advisory Persons of hemming&
Wealth Management and periodically by the CCO. Formal reviews are generally conducted at least annually or
more frequently depending on the needs of the Client.
B. Causes for Reviews
In addition to the investment monitoring noted in Item 13.A., each Client account shall be reviewed at least
annually. Reviews may be conducted more frequently at the Client’s request. Accounts may 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[s]. The Client is encouraged to notify hemming& Wealth
Management 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.
C. Review Reports
The Client 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 may also establish electronic access to
the Custodian’s website so that the Client may view these reports and their account activity. Client brokerage
statements will include all positions, transactions and fees relating to the Client’s account[s]. The Advisor may
also provide Clients with periodic reports regarding their holdings, allocations, and performance.
Item 14 - Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Compensation Received by hemming& Wealth Management
hemming& Wealth Management may refer Clients to various unaffiliated professionals (e.g. attorneys,
accountants, estate planners) to provide certain financial services necessary to meet the goals of its Clients.
Likewise, hemming& Wealth Management may receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various
third-parties.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform
As noted in item 12, hemming& Wealth Management has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to
assist the Advisor in managing Client account[s].
As part of the arrangement, Fidelity also makes available to the Advisor, at no additional charge to the Advisor,
certain research and brokerage services, including research services obtained by Fidelity directly from
independent research companies. The Advisor may also receive additional services and support from Fidelity. As
a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, the Advisor may have an incentive to continue to use or
expand the use of Fidelity's services. The Advisor examined this potential conflict of interest when it chose to
enter into the relationship with Fidelity and has determined that the relationship is in the best interests of the
Advisor’s Clients and satisfies its Client obligations, including its duty to seek best execution. Please see Item 12
above.
The Advisor receives access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders
investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Fidelity. The software and related systems
support may benefit the Advisor, but not its Clients directly. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor
endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of
economic benefits from a Custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor's
recommendation of this Custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.

In addition, Fidelity has provided the Advisor with financial support in the launch of the Advisor and
reimbursements for various third-party service providers.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
hemming& Wealth Management does not compensate, either directly or indirectly, any persons who are not
supervised persons, for Client referrals.
Item 15 – Custody
All Clients must place their assets with a “qualified custodian”. Clients are required to engage the Custodian to
retain their funds and securities and direct hemming& Wealth Management to utilize that Custodian for the
Client’s security transactions. hemming& Wealth Management does not accept or maintain custody of any Client
accounts, except for the limited circumstances outlined below:
Deduction of Advisory Fees - To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements associated with the deduction
of advisory fees, all Clients for whom hemming& Wealth Management exercises discretionary authority must hold
their assets with a "qualified custodian." Clients are responsible for engaging a “qualified custodian” to safeguard
their funds and securities and must instruct hemming& Wealth Management to utilize that Custodian for
securities transactions on their behalf. Clients are encouraged to review statements provided by the Custodian
and compare to any reports provided by hemming& Wealth Management to ensure accuracy, as the Custodian
does not perform this review. For more information about custodians and brokerage practices, see Item 12 –
Brokerage Practices.
Money Movement Authorization - For instances where Clients authorize hemming& Wealth Management to
move funds between their accounts, hemming& Wealth Management and the Custodian have implemented
safeguards to ensure that all money movement activities are conducted strictly in accordance with the Client’s
documented instructions.
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
hemming& Wealth Management generally has discretion over the selection and amount of securities to be
bought or sold in Client accounts without obtaining prior consent or approval from the Client. However, these
purchases or sales may be subject to specified investment objectives, guidelines, or limitations previously set
forth by the Client and agreed to by hemming& Wealth Management. Discretionary authority will only be
authorized upon full disclosure to the Client. The granting of such authority will be evidenced by the Client's
execution of an investment advisory agreement containing all applicable limitations to such authority. All
discretionary trades made by hemming& Wealth Management will be in accordance with each Client's
investment objectives and goals.
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
hemming& Wealth Management does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive
proxy statements directly from the Custodian. If the Client elects to direct proxies to the Advisor, such election

questions relating to proxies, however, the Client retains the sole responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.

compromise. hemming& Wealth Management is not required to deliver a balance sheet along with this

CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (“CFP®”)
The CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, CFP® and federally registered CFP® (with flame design) marks
(collectively, the “CFP® marks”) are professional certification marks granted in the United States by Certified
Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. (“CFP® Board”).
The CFP® certification is a voluntary certification; no federal or state law or regulation requires financial planners
to hold CFP® certification. It is recognized in the United States and a number of other countries for its (1) high
standard of professional education; (2) stringent code of conduct and standards of practice; and (3) ethical
requirements that govern professional engagements with clients. Currently, more than 71,000 individuals have
obtained CFP® certification in the United States.
To attain the right to use the CFP® marks, an individual must satisfactorily fulfill the following requirements:
● Education – Complete an advanced college-level course of study addressing the financial planning
subject areas that CFP® Board’s studies have determined as necessary for the competent and
professional delivery of financial planning services, and attain a Bachelor’s Degree from a regionally
accredited United States college or university (or its equivalent from a foreign university). CFP® Board’s
financial planning subject areas include insurance planning and risk management, employee benefits
planning, investment planning, income tax planning, retirement planning, and estate planning;
● Examination – Pass the comprehensive CFP® Certification Examination. The examination includes case
studies and client scenarios designed to test one’s ability to correctly diagnose financial planning issues
and apply one’s knowledge of financial planning to real world circumstances;
● Experience – Complete at least three years of full-time financial planning-related experience (or the
equivalent, measured as 2,000 hours per year); and
● Ethics – Agree to be bound by CFP® Board’s Standards of Professional Conduct, a set of documents
outlining the ethical and practice standards for CFP® professionals.
Individuals who become certified must complete the following ongoing education and ethics requirements in
order to maintain the right to continue to use the CFP® marks:
● Continuing Education – Complete 30 hours of continuing education hours every two years, including two
hours on the Code of Ethics and other parts of the Standards of Professional Conduct, to maintain
competence and keep up with developments in the financial planning field; and
● Ethics – Renew an agreement to be bound by the Standards of Professional Conduct. The Standards
prominently require that CFP® professionals provide financial planning services at a fiduciary standard of
care. This means CFP® professionals must provide financial planning services in the best interests of
their clients.
CFP® professionals who fail to comply with the above standards and requirements may be subject to CFP®
Board’s enforcement process, which could result in suspension or permanent revocation of their CFP®
certification.
