Item 4. Advisory Business
PFG is an SEC-registered fee-based investment adviser with its principal place of
business located in Eureka, California. We have been in business since 1990, with
Wayne O. Caldwell, Director, John C. Gloor, Director, and Charles R. Ross, Director,
as majority owners of the firm.
Total Assets under our firm’s management were $819,918,431 as of January 1, 2026.
Discretionary assets under our firm’s management were $697,540,912 as of January 1,
2026. Non-discretionary assets under our firm’s management were $122,377,519 as of
January 1, 2026.
Investment Advisory Services
PFG is in the business of managing individually tailored investment portfolios designed
to preserve capital while providing growth and/or income. Our firm provides continuous
advice to a client regarding the investment of client funds based on the individual needs
of the client. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on a
client's particular circumstances are established, we assist our client in determining their
investment allocation for each managed account within their portfolio based on their
goals. During our data-gathering process, we determine the client’s individual objectives,
time horizons, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. We may also review and discuss a
client’s prior investment history, as well as family composition and background. PFG
provides financial planning services to all clients at no additional cost.
Our investment recommendations include widely diversified, evidence-based, low-cost,
institutional-class mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs). Clients may include
additional securities in the portfolio, as long as they are deemed prudent and in the best
interests of the client.
Account supervision is guided by the stated objectives of the client (i.e., maximum
capital appreciation, growth, income, or growth and income), as well as tax
considerations. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain
securities, types of securities, or industry sectors.
We will manage client investment accounts on a discretionary or non-nondiscretionary
basis. For discretionary accounts, we will implement transactions without seeking prior
client consent. For non-discretionary accounts, we will seek prior client consent for
every contemplated transaction. Therefore, clients with non-discretionary accounts
should understand that any delay in obtaining consent may result in less favorable
transaction terms, including higher security price.
We also offer non-discretionary portfolio management services outside of client
investment accounts.
4
Pension Consulting Services
We also provide several advisory services separately or in combination. While the
primary clients for these services will be pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plans,
we will also offer these services, where appropriate, to individuals and trusts,
estates and charitable organizations. These services are typically provided in
conjunction with Broadridge/Matrix, PCS/Aspire Financial Services, LLC, or
Newport Group/Ascensus, Inc. Pension Consulting Services are comprised of
four distinct services.
Investment Policy Statement Preparation (hereinafter referred to as ''IPS''):
We will meet with the client (in person, via video conference, or over the telephone) to
determine an appropriate investment strategy that reflects the plan sponsor's stated
investment objectives for management of the overall plan. Our firm will then help prepare
or update a written IPS stating those needs and goals and encompassing a policy under
which these goals are to be achieved. The IPS will also list the criteria for selection of
investment vehicles and the procedures and timing interval for monitoring of investment
performance.
Selection of Investment Vehicles:
We will assist plan sponsors in constructing asset allocation models and review various
investments to determine which investments are appropriate to implement the client's
IPS. We will review various investments, consisting of mutual funds and/or ETFs (both
index and managed) to determine which of these investments are appropriate to
implement the client's IPS.
Monitoring of Investment Performance:
We will monitor client investments regularly, based on the procedures and timing
intervals delineated in the Investment Policy Statement. Although our firm will not be
involved in the purchase or sale of these investments for participant directed accounts,
we will supervise the client's portfolio and will make recommendations to the client as
market factors and the client's needs dictate.
Employee Communications:
For pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plan clients with individual plan participants
exercising control over assets in their own account (''self-directed plans''), we may also
provide periodic educational support and investment workshops designed for the plan
participants. The nature of the topics to be covered will be determined by us and the
client under the guidelines established in ERISA Section 404(c). The educational
support and investment workshops will NOT provide plan participants with
individualized, tailored investment advice or individualized, tailored asset allocation
recommendations.
5
Wrap Fee Program
Individual clients of Premier Financial Group typically use Charles Schwab, Inc. as
investment custodian. With this relationship, all custody fees and trading costs are
paid for by Premier Financial Group, not the client. This is being done in order to
make total costs paid by the client as transparent and understandable as possible.
Seminars
Occasionally, we provide free public seminars on investment and financial planning.
Discussion includes the idea of financial planning as the basis for investment decisions,
effects of taxes and inflation, time value of money, value of diversification, how various
generic types of investment vehicles work and their place in a portfolio, and the benefits
of living trusts. We do not make any specific investment recommendations and do not
address the specific investment needs of any attendee.
Item 5. Fees and Compensation
Portfolio Management Services
Client Investment Accounts
Our fees for client investment accounts are based upon a percentage of assets under
management, according to the following fee schedule:
Assets Under Management ($) Annual Fee (%)
First $250,000 2.00%
Next $250,000 1.00%
Next $500,000 0.80%
Next $1,000,000 0.60%
Above $2,000,000 0.40%
This fee schedule can be negotiable under special circumstances using various factors
such as cash flows, number and type of accounts, client service requirements, and others
that impact the costs borne by our firm.
6
Non-Discretionary Accounts
The maximum annual fee for these accounts is 2.00%. Each client’s fee is negotiated
individually.
Portfolio management fees are directly debited in advance at the beginning of each
quarter, based upon the billable balance on the last day of the previous calendar quarter.
Seminars
The fee for a seminar (if any) will be determined on a case-by-case basis. This fee will
be charged as a fixed fee.
Fees in General
Fees and account minimums for all of our services are negotiable based upon certain
criteria (i.e. anticipated future earning capacity, anticipated future additional assets, dollar
amount of assets to be managed, related accounts, account composition, negotiations with
client, etc.), and discounts, not generally available to our advisory clients, may be offered
to family members and friends.
We may group certain related client accounts for the purposes of determining the
annualized fee and/or minimum account size. At our discretion we may reduce, share or
waive account transition costs including the trading costs of incoming assets, account
closure fees, etc.
Under no circumstances will we earn fees in excess of $1,200 more than six months in
advance of services rendered.
Clients will have a period of five (5) business days from the date of signing the
agreement to unconditionally rescind the agreement with us and receive a full refund of
all fees. Thereafter, the client may terminate the agreement by providing us with a 30-
day written notice at our principal place of business. Upon termination of any account,
any prepaid, unearned fees will be promptly refunded, and any earned, unpaid fees will
be due and payable.
Program sponsor(s) recommended by us to clients have their own policies for account
terminations and refunds. Clients should carefully review all such policies since our firm
has no control over any contractual provisions imposed by third parties.
Mutual Fund and ETF Fees and Expenses: All fees paid to our firm for investment
advisory services are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by
mutual funds and ETFs to their shareholders. These fees and expenses are described in
each fund's prospectus. These fees will generally include a management fee, other fund
expenses, and a possible distribution fee. A client could invest in a mutual fund or an
ETF directly, without the services of our firm. In that case, the client would not receive
7
the services provided by us which are designed, among other things, to assist the client
in determining which mutual fund or funds or ETFs are most appropriate to each client's
financial condition and objectives. Accordingly, the client should review both the fees
charged by the funds and ETFs and the fees charged by us to fully understand the total
amount of fees to be paid by the client and to thereby evaluate the advisory services
being provided.
Management, Brokerage and Custodian Fees
Typically, for clients participating in the client investment accounts, our firm will pay
for account fees and all brokerage and transaction fees associated with mutual fund
transactions. Those clients not participating in the client investment accounts or
transacting in non-mutual fund transactions will also be responsible for all transaction,
brokerage, and custodian fees incurred as part of their account management, unless they
have selected the “wrap fee” options of the programs described above. These fees are
in addition to our advisory fees. Please see Item 12 of this Brochure for important
disclosures regarding our brokerage practices.
Additional Compensation Received by Us
Currently, neither PFG nor any individuals employed with PFG sells or offers to sell
insurance products to advisory clients. Premier Financial advisors may advise clients on
the need for insurance products, or the types of products the client should consider,
however, clients are under no obligation to act upon any recommendations of these
individuals or to affect any transactions through them or through PFG if they decide to
follow the recommendations. Clients have the option to purchase investment and
insurance products recommended through other insurance companies not affiliated with
our firm. Premier has implemented bonus structures to incentivize advisors to help
grow the business. Please refer to Item 10 of this Brochure for a more detailed
explanation of how our firm handles and mitigates these conflicts of interest.
Our firm’s advisory fees are not reduced by the amount of commissions received by these
individuals.
Item 6. Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
We do not charge any additional fees based on a share of capital gains on or capital
appreciation of the assets of a client.
Item 7. Types of Clients
Our firm generally provides advisory services to individuals and families, high net
worth individuals, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable
organizations, and corporate and business entities.
We typically require a minimum account of $500,000 for portfolio management services
and $1,000,000 for pension consulting services. This minimum can be negotiable under
8
special circumstances using various factors such as cash flows, number and type of
accounts, client service requirements, and others that impact the costs borne by our firm.
Item 8. Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Our firm employs the following types of analysis to formulate client recommendations:
Mutual fund and/or ETF analysis: We look at the experience and track record of the
manager of the mutual fund or ETF in an attempt to determine if that manager has
demonstrated an ability to invest over a period of time and in different economic
conditions. We also 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
other funds in the client’s portfolio. We also monitor the funds or ETFs in an attempt
to determine if they are continuing to follow their stated investment strategy.
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 fund or ETF less suitable
of the client’s portfolio.
Asset Allocation: Rather than focusing primarily on securities selection, we attempt to
identify an appropriate ratio of securities, fixed income, and cash suitable to the client’s
investment goals and risk tolerance.
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 securities,
fixed income, and cash will change over time due to stock and market movements and, if
not corrected, will no longer be appropriate for the client’s goals.
Risks for all forms of analysis: Our securities analysis method relies on the assumption
that the companies whose securities we purchase and sell, the rating agencies that review
these securities, and other publicly available sources of information about these
securities, are providing accurate and unbiased data. While we are alert to indications
that data may be incorrect, there is always a risk that our analysis may be compromised
by inaccurate or misleading information.
We use the following strategies in managing client accounts:
Long-term purchases: We purchase securities with the idea of holding them in the client’s
account for a year or longer. We may do this because we believe the short-term tactical
strategy exposes clients to unnecessary costs and promotes market timing and
sector/stock pricing.
A risk in a long-term purchase strategy is that, by holding the security for this length of
time, we may not take advantage of short-term gains that could be profitable to a client.
9
Moreover, if our predictions are incorrect, a security may decline sharply in value before
we make the decision to sell.
Margin transactions: If applicable, Premier can purchase stocks for your portfolio with
money borrowed from your brokerage account. This allows you to purchase more stock
than you would be able to with your available cash and allows us to purchase stock
without selling other holdings.
A risk in margin trading is that, in volatile markets, securities prices can fall very quickly.
If the value of the securities in your account minus what you owe the broker falls below a
certain level, the broker will issue a “margin call”, and you will be required to sell your
position in the security purchased on margin or add more cash to the account. In some
circumstances, you may lose more money than you originally invested.
Clients should understand that investing in any securities, including mutual funds
and/or ETFs, involves a risk of loss of both income and principal.
Item 9. Disciplinary Information
Our firm has no reportable disciplinary events to disclose.
Item 10. Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Clients should be aware that the receipt of additional compensation by our firm and its
management persons or employees creates a conflict of interest that may impair the
objectivity of our firm and these individuals when making advisory recommendations.
We endeavor at all times to put the interest of our clients first as part of our fiduciary duty
as a registered investment adviser and take the following steps to address this conflict:
1. We disclose to clients the existence of all material conflicts of interest,
including the potential for our firm and its employees to earn compensation from
advisory clients in addition to our advisory fees;
2. We do not currently sell or offer to sell any insurance products to advisory
clients;
3. We disclose to clients that they are not obligated to purchase
recommended investment products from our employees;
4. We collect, maintain and document accurate, complete and relevant client
background information, including the client’s financial goals, objectives and risk
tolerance;
5. Our management conducts regular reviews of each client account to verify
that all recommendations made to a client are suitable for the client’s needs and
circumstances;
6. We require that our employees seek prior approval of any outside
employment activity so that we may ensure that any conflicts of interests in such
activities are properly addressed;
7. We periodically monitor these outside employment activities to verify that
any conflicts of interest continue to be properly addressed by our firm; and
10
8. We educate our employees regarding the responsibilities of a fiduciary,
including the need for having a reasonable and independent basis for the
investment advice provided to clients.
Item 11. Code of Ethics, Participation in Client Transactions and Personal
Trading
Code of Ethics Disclosure
Our firm has adopted a Code of Ethics which sets forth high ethical standards of
business conduct that we require of our employees, including compliance with
applicable federal securities laws. Our Code of Ethics includes policies and procedures
for the review of quarterly securities transactions reports as well as initial and annual
securities holdings reports that must be submitted by the firm’s access persons. Among
other things, our Code of Ethics also requires the prior approval of any acquisition of
securities in a limited offering (e.g., private placement) or an initial public offering.
Our code provides for oversight, enforcement and recordkeeping provisions. A copy of
our Code of Ethics is available to our advisory clients and prospective clients upon
request to Premier’s Chief Compliance Officer at the firm’s principal office address.
Our firm or individuals associated with our firm may buy or sell securities identical to
those recommended to or purchased for customers for their personal accounts. In
addition, any related person(s) may have an interest or position in a certain security
which may also be recommended to a client. This practice results in a potential conflict
of interest, as we may have an incentive to manipulate the timing of such purchases to
obtain a better price or more favorable allocation in rare cases of limited availability.
To mitigate these potential conflicts of interest and ensure the fulfillment of our fiduciary
responsibilities, we have established the following restrictions:
1. No principal or employee of our firm may buy or sell securities for their
personal portfolio(s) where their decision is substantially derived, in whole or in
part, by reason of his or her employment unless the information is also available
to the investing public on reasonable inquiry. No principal or employee of our
firm may prefer his or her own interest to that of the advisory client;
2. It is the expressed policy of our firm that no person employed by us may
purchase or sell any security prior to a transaction(s) being implemented for an
advisory account, and therefore, preventing such employees from benefiting from
transactions placed on behalf of advisory accounts;
3. We maintain a list of all securities holdings for our firm and anyone
associated with this advisory practice with access to advisory
recommendations. These holdings are reviewed on a regular basis by our Chief
Compliance Officer;
4. We emphasize the unrestricted right of the client to decline to implement
any advice rendered;
11
5. All of our principals and employees must act in accordance with all
applicable Federal and State regulations governing registered investment
advisory practices; and
6. Any individual not in observance of the above may be subject to disciplinary
action or termination.
7. At the board’s discretion, Premier Financial Group or its employees may
choose to donate charitably to non-profit organizations we do business with.
Typically, these organizations offer significant benefit to our small, rural
community as a whole.
Item 12. Brokerage Practices
We do not have any soft-dollar arrangements and do not receive any soft-dollar benefits.
We do not request or accept the discretionary authority to determine the broker dealer to
be used for client accounts. This means that we will not survey or shop the brokerage
marketplace for best execution on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Clients must direct
us as to the broker dealer to be used for all client securities transactions. In directing the
use of a particular broker or dealer, it should be understood that we will not have
authority to negotiate commissions among various brokers, and best execution may not
be achieved, resulting in higher transaction costs for clients.
For clients in need of brokerage or custodial services, we may recommend the use of
Charles Schwab, Inc., an unaffiliated broker dealer, member FINRA/SIPC (hereinafter,
“Schwab”), where appropriate to client needs. Schwab offers independent investment
advisors services which include custody of securities, trade execution, clearance and
settlement of transactions. Our firm receives some benefits from Schwab through its
participation in the program that are typically not available to Schwab retail investors.
These benefits include the following products and services (provided without cost or at a
discount): duplicate client statements and confirmations; research related products and
tools; consulting services; access to a trading desk serving advisor participants; access to
block trading (which provides the ability to aggregate securities transactions for execution
and then allocate the appropriate shares to client accounts); the ability to have advisory
fees deducted directly from client accounts; access to an electronic communications
network for client order entry and account information; access to mutual funds with no
transaction fees and to certain institutional money managers; and discounts on
compliance, marketing, research, technology, and practice management products or
services provided to us by third party vendors. Some of the products and services made
available by Charles Schwab, Inc. through the program may benefit our firm but may not
benefit our client accounts directly. These products or services may assist us in managing
and administering client accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab. Other
services made available by Schwab are intended to help us manage and further develop
our business enterprise. The benefits received by our firm or its personnel through
participation in the program do not depend on the amount of brokerage transactions
directed to Schwab. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic
benefits by our firm or its staff in and of itself creates a potential conflict of interest and
may indirectly influence our recommendation of Schwab for custody and brokerage
services.
12
Participation in the Schwab program results a potential conflict of interest for our firm,
as the receipt of the above benefits creates an incentive for us to recommend Schwab to
clients.
Nonetheless, we have reviewed the services of Schwab and recommend the services
based on several factors. These factors include the professional services offered,
commission rates, and the custodial platform provided to clients. While, based on our
business model, we will not seek to exercise discretion to negotiate trades among
various brokers on behalf of clients, we will, however, periodically attempt to negotiate
lower commission rates for our clients with Schwab.
Not all advisers require their clients to direct brokerage. Clients are not under any
obligation to affect trades through any recommended broker. Clients may direct us to
place trades through another broker. However, we reserve the right to decline acceptance
of any client account for which the client directs the use of a broker if we believe that this
choice would hinder our fiduciary duty to the client and/or our ability to service the
account. Additionally, by allowing clients to direct brokerage, PFG may be unable to
achieve the most favorable execution of client transactions and may ultimately cost the
client more money.
Trade Aggregation
Typically, we aggregate client trades when doing so is advantageous to our clients.
Mostly, we will batch client transactions to obtain more uniform pricing across client
accounts. Clients should carefully review the disclosure documents of selected third-
party managers and/or program sponsor(s) for detailed information about their best
execution, aggregation and allocation practices.

Portfolio Management Services:
Reviews: While the underlying securities within these accounts are continuously
monitored, these accounts are reviewed at least quarterly by the above-listed individuals.
Accounts are reviewed for consistency with client investment strategy, asset allocation,
risk tolerance and performance relative to the appropriate benchmark. More frequent
reviews may be triggered by changes in an account holder’s personal, tax or financial
status, and cash inflows or outflows. Economic and macroeconomic specific events may
also trigger reviews.
Reports: Clients will receive monthly/quarterly statements and confirmations of
transactions from their custodian. Our firm will not provide any additional reports unless
specifically requested by a client.
Pension Consulting Services
Reviews: We will review the IPS for these accounts whenever clients indicate a change in
circumstances regarding the needs of the plan. We will also review the investment
options of the plan according to the agreed-upon time intervals established in the IPS.
Such reviews will occur at least annually.
Reports: We will provide reports to these clients as contracted for or as required by law
at the inception of the advisory relationship.
Item 14. Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Our employees may receive additional compensation as described in Item 5 of this
Brochure. Please refer to Item 5 for a detailed explanation of these relationships and
important conflict of interest disclosures.
Other than that already described in this Brochure, our firm does not receive any
additional compensation from third parties for providing investment advice to its clients.
Item 15. Custody
Since we directly debit client fees from their custodial accounts, our firm is deemed to
have constructive custody of client funds. Custody is defined as any legal or actual
ability by our firm to access client funds or securities. We urge all of our management
clients to carefully review their quarterly reviews of account holdings and/or
performance results received from their custodian. Should you have any questions,
please notify us and/or your custodian as soon as possible.
Item 16. Investment Discretion
For clients granting us discretionary authority to determine which securities and the
amounts of securities that are to be bought or sold for their account(s), we request that
such authority be granted in writing, typically in the executed investment management
agreement.
14
Should the client wish to impose reasonable limitations on this discretionary authority,
such limitations shall be included in this written authority statement. Clients may
change/amend these limitations as desired. Such amendments must be submitted to us by
the client in writing.
Item 17. Voting Client Securities
As a matter of firm policy, our firm does not vote proxies on behalf of clients. Clients
will receive their proxies and other solicitations directly from their custodian or transfer
agent and retain sole responsibility for voting. However, we may provide clients with
consulting assistance regarding proxy issues if they contact us with questions at our
principal place of business.
We will neither advise nor act on behalf of the client in legal proceedings involving
companies whose securities are held in the client’s account(s), including, but not limited
to, the filing of “Proofs of Claim” in class action settlements. If desired, clients may
direct us to transmit copies of class action notices to the client or a third party. Upon such
direction, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to forward such notices in a
timely manner.
Item 18. Financial Information
Under no circumstance will our firm earn fees in excess of $1,200 more than six months
in advance of services rendered.
PFG is not aware of any financial condition that is reasonably likely to impair its ability
to meet its contractual commitments to clients.
PFG has never been the subject of a bankruptcy petition.
