Summary of Material Changes On April 1, 2026, Ryan Investments (CRD#115755) and Yule Creek Wealth Management, LLC (CRD# 322800) combined businesses in a statutory merger. The surviving entity will be Ryan Investments, and it will continue to operate under CRD #115755, as it has for the past 25 years. The purpose of the merger was to provide both of the prior firms with a bigger and stronger team of professionals and a firm with more continuity and sustainability to better serve clients for decades to come. All personnel were retained in the merger. Ryan Investments now offers municipal bond portfolio management services in addition to its existing iFolios active allocation strategy. The firm revised certain disclosures regarding ownership, fees, advisory business, brokerage practices, new advisory personnel, and account review responsibilities. 2  Item 3.

Advisory Business Ryan Investments is a fee-based SEC-registered investment advisor. Our SEC file number is 801- 60589 and our CRD# is 115755. Our principal office is in Basalt, Colorado. We have been in business since 2001. Christopher S. Ryan, CFA, CEO/CIO, is the firm’s principal owner. Matthew A. Owings, CFA, CFO, and Nathaniel L. Kaup, CFA, CCO, own minority interests. Assets Under Management Ryan Investments currently manages approximately $272,033,000 of client assets with discretionary investment authority. Wealth Management and Portfolio Management Our process starts with a conversation and an inventory of our clients’ net worth. We have discussions with our clients about their goals and objectives, needs for growth, income, and liquidity, their tax issues, views about risk, and any other unique circumstances. As wealth managers, we strive to understand how our clients’ assets and debts are titled, how they allocate strategies to taxable and tax-deferred accounts, their beneficiary designations, their current and expected cash flow needs, and how their estate plan is designed. We may, depending on client demand, prepare written statements and analysis to facilitate providing clients with comprehensive wealth advice, primarily, a written net worth statement. Based on our understanding of our client, we can then assess and recommend a suitable, overall global allocation. For the portion of assets that we manage in-house at Ryan Investments, which could include global equities, global fixed income, some alternative asset classes, and some hedging strategies, we will outline our recommendations for client approval. We manage most of our clients’ global equity, global fixed income, alternative assets, and hedging strategies, using our iFolios® strategy on a discretionary basis. That means that once we have agreed with the client about which iFolio model is appropriate, we will execute the day-to-day transactions without seeking prior client consent. Account management and trading are guided by the objectives and selected iFolio model of that client. We build iFolios using index funds and index exchange traded funds (ETFs). Our decision to buy or sell a holding is primarily based on the current price trend of that holding. Our iFolios investment strategy is fully explained in Item 8, below. On occasion, one of our iFolios models is not the best fit for a client and we will develop a custom investment strategy. In addition to our iFolios strategy, we offer municipal bond portfolio management services. These services may be provided as a standalone service or as a component of a broader client portfolio managed by RI. Our municipal bond strategy is well suited for high-net-worth clients seeking tax- efficient income and/or capital preservation. We may occasionally incorporate taxable fixed-income securities depending on each client’s circumstances. 4  We may, rarely, accept portfolios with certain restrictions, less than full discretion, or nondiscretionary capabilities if circumstances warrant. Item 5. Fees and Compensation Equity/Balanced Portfolios: Fees for equity and balanced portfolios are based on Assets Under Management (AUM) in the equity and/or balanced portfolio(s). The management fee schedule is as follows: AUM $ Fee % First $2 million 1.00% Next $3 million 0.75% Over $5 million 0.60% As an example, a $5m householded equity/balanced portfolio(s) would pay a blended rate of 0.85% per year. Municipal Bond Portfolios: Fees for customized municipal bond portfolios are based on AUM in the bond portfolio(s). The municipal bond management fee schedule is as follows: AUM $ Fee % First $2 million 0.60% Next $3 million 0.45% Over $5 million 0.35% As an example, a $5m householded municipal bond portfolio(s) would pay a blended rate of 0.51% per year. Under certain limited circumstances, we may negotiate account minimums and fees. Fees in General Clients that have multiple accounts that are included in one household (e.g., spouse, IRAs, trusts, and children under age 26) may be aggregated for fee purposes within the same fee schedule, as described below. Each account is assigned to one of our two fee schedules above. For purposes of calculating management fees, we aggregate (“household”) all accounts held by a client or related client accounts that are assigned to the same fee schedule. Accounts assigned to different fee schedules are not combined for purposes of determining fee break points or calculating management fees. As a result, if a client maintains accounts under both fee schedules, each fee schedule is applied and billed separately based on the assets assigned to that schedule. 5  Management fees are charged in arrears at the end of each month, based upon the value of the managed assets in your account(s) on the last business day of the month. With your written authorization, we will directly debit your account(s) for portfolio management fees. Clients may terminate the investment advisory agreement at any time by providing us with notice or by notifying the independent custodian. Fees are payable through the termination date, and there is no additional cancellation fee. Mutual Fund and ETF Fees and Expenses RI only earns fees based on portfolio management fees, discussed above. Our fees are separate and distinct from any other fees and expenses that may be embedded in mutual funds and ETFs. These fees and expenses are described in each fund's prospectus. These fees are typically embedded into the price of the index fund or ETF, and so are not paid for with cash. Rather, these fees reduce the gross performance of the fund. These fees may include a fund manager fee, other fund expenses, and a possible distribution fee. RI uses low-cost index funds and ETFs. Fund expenses of these index ETF are typically low, in the 0.04% to 0.20% range. RI receives no part of these fund-level fees. You could invest in a mutual fund or ETF directly, without the services of our firm. In that case, you would not receive the services provided by us which include fund selection, allocation decisions, trading decisions, and performance review. You should review both the fees charged by RI as well as fees charged by the funds and ETFs to evaluate the advisory services being provided. Brokerage and Custodial Fees In addition to management fees paid by you to our firm, clients will also be responsible for all transaction, brokerage, prime-broker, trade-away, and custodial fees incurred as part of their account management, if any. Currently, our chosen custodian, Charles Schwab & Co., does not charge for custodian or online trading services. Please see Item 12 of this Brochure for important disclosures regarding our brokerage practices. Item 6. Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management We do not charge any fees based on a share of capital gains or capital appreciation of the assets of a client. Item 7. Types of Clients Our firm provides wealth management services to high-net-worth investors and non-profits. We have a minimum investment requirement of $1 million for equity/balanced portfolios, and $2 million for customized municipal bond portfolios. Our firm occasionally works with family offices and other advisory firms to provide portfolio management services to their end-clients in a sub- advisory capacity. 6  We seek clients who are looking for a wealth management team to meet their overall financial goals. By taking a comprehensive view of our clients’ overall wealth, we can better coordinate their total portfolio and work better with their CPAs and attorneys. We feel it is important for us to fully explain our recommendations and strategies, and to educate our clients about our investment strategies, including iFolios and municipal bonds. For every portfolio that we manage, we are always mindful of a dual objective to provide growth and income, while always being mindful of drawdown risk. Our clients tend to appreciate this dual objective. Item 8. Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Our iFolios Strategy Explained: We subscribe to the basic premise of defining objectives, matching objectives to an appropriate asset allocation, using global diversification to construct portfolios, and providing risk management. We’ll get to know you, your goals, and concerns, and then we’ll develop a personalized asset allocation plan that is appropriate for your needs. Your allocation plan will be globally diversified with various asset classes depending on your needs. We’ll build your portfolio primarily with low-cost and tax-efficient index funds and exchange traded index funds (ETFs), one for each asset class in your asset allocation plan. Typically, a portfolio might hold 6 to 12 different and diversified index funds and/or ETFs. The key to our strategy, and what makes us unique, is that we actively manage each portfolio using price trend-following discipline. Trend-following is a systematic and disciplined method to determine whether an asset price is trending up or down. We have developed our own set of rules for determining the price trend, which is based on factors like moving averages and other technical indicators. Trend-following differs from “market timing” in that we aren’t guessing about what the market is going to do; we’re just determining what it is doing right now. It differs from “value investing” in that we aren’t estimating that a holding is “under-valued” using some metric and hoping that it will rise in price as others discover its value. Our iFolios strategy, based on trend- following, simply acknowledges what prices are factually doing, and invests accordingly. To summarize, we manage money using active allocation strategies. We’re trying to improve upon a buy & hold passive strategy by diversifying globally, reducing costs by using index funds, being fully invested in a holding when its price is trending up (capturing growth) and selling or trimming back a holding when its price is trending down (providing protection). We’re not focused on making predictions and being “right”; we’re focused solely on your portfolio’s performance in both up and down markets. On occasion, when suitable for each client, we may use inverse index ETFs to further hedge a portfolio and add downside protection. Inverse ETFs are designed to track the daily performance of an index and do not track an index over the long term. For this reason, we use inverse ETFs for short-term hedging purposes, generally for several weeks to several months at a time. By following our strategy, our portfolios will be well diversified, fully invested in uptrending markets, and under-weight in downtrending markets, capturing the available growth and reducing major 7  losses. Your plan will be discussed with you in advance, so you will always know that your portfolio is invested according to the terms you’ve agreed to. Our Municipal Bond Strategy Explained: In addition to the iFolios strategy described above, we manage municipal bond portfolios consisting primarily of municipal bonds and other fixed income securities. These portfolios may be managed on a standalone basis or as part of a broader client allocation. Our strategy uses both portfolio-level and security-level analysis. At the portfolio level, we consider factors such as interest rates, yield curve positioning, credit conditions, and the client’s objectives for income, liquidity, and preservation of capital. At the security level, we evaluate factors such as issuer quality, bond structure, maturity, duration, credit risk, and market liquidity. While primarily focused on municipal bonds for tax-efficient income, we may invest in individual corporate, treasury and agency bonds, fixed-income ETFs, or a combination of both, depending on the client’s objectives and circumstances. Fixed income investing involves certain additional risks. These risks include interest rate risk, call risk, reinvestment risk, liquidity risk, credit risk, and the risk of issuer default. Municipal bonds may also be affected by changes in tax law or other legislative developments that could reduce the value of their tax-exempt status. In certain cases, municipal bonds purchased at a discount may also involve adverse tax consequences. Clients should understand that investing in any securities, including index mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs), involves a risk of loss of both income and principal that a client must be prepared to bear. Item 9. Disciplinary Information Our firm has no reportable disciplinary events to disclose. Item 10. Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations We have no other financial industry activities and / or affiliations. Item 11. Code of Ethics, Participation in Client Transactions, and Personal Trading As required by the SEC, 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 our employees’ personal trading accounts. The review includes quarterly securities transactions reports as well as initial and annual securities holdings reports that must be submitted 8  by all employees. 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. For our clients’ portfolios, we primarily trade exchange-listed funds and individual fixed income securities. It is possible that individual employees associated with our firm may buy or sell securities identical to those purchased for customers in their personal accounts. In addition, employees may have an existing interest or position in certain securities which may also be held by clients. This practice results in a potential conflict of interest, as employees could have an incentive (to the extent possible) to manipulate the timing of such purchases to obtain a better price for themselves 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 policy of our firm that no person employed by us may, without the express consent of the firm’s Chief Compliance Officer, 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 reportable 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 Nathaniel L. Kaup, Chief Compliance Officer. 4. We maintain a list of fixed income securities that require written pre-clearance before any employee may place or execute transactions. This list primarily serves to mitigate conflicts of interest with less liquid asset classes we trade in, primarily, individual municipal bonds. 5. We may aggregate employee trades with client trades, ensuring identical and fair execution. 6. We emphasize the unrestricted right of the client to decline to implement any advice rendered, except in situations where our firm is granted discretionary authority. 7. All principals and employees must act in accordance with all applicable Federal and State regulations governing registered investment advisory practices. 9  8. Any individual not in observance of the above may be subject to disciplinary action or termination. Item 12. Brokerage Practices We do not have any formal or informal soft-dollar arrangements and do not receive any soft-dollar benefits. RI has authority to select the custodian and broker-dealer for accounts and will base our choice based on financial security, best execution, commission and fees, and benefit to our clients. We do not normally accept advisory clients’ instructions for directing a client’s brokerage transactions to a particular broker-dealer. At this time, we have chosen Schwab Institutional as our broker-dealer. RI executes certain fixed-income transactions through 3rd party broker-dealers in order to access specific bond offerings, improve execution, or obtain more favorable pricing. We transact with 3rd party broker-dealers utilizing Schwab’s prime brokerage relationship service. Schwab charges a flat dollar amount per trade as a “Prime Broker” or “Trade Away” fee for trades executed at another brokerage firm, paid by the client. Our firm participates in the Schwab Institutional (SI) services program offered to independent investment advisors by Charles Schwab & Company, Inc. (“Schwab”), an unaffiliated FINRA- registered broker dealer. Clients in need of brokerage and custodial services will have Schwab recommended to them. As part of the SI program, our firm receives benefits from Schwab. These benefits include: receipt of duplicate client confirmations and bundled duplicate statements; access to a trading desk serving SI participants exclusively; access to block trading which provides the ability to aggregate securities transactions and then allocate the appropriate shares to client accounts; ability to have investment management fees deducted directly from client account; access, for a fee, to an electronic communication network for client order entry and account information; receipt of compliance publications; and access to mutual funds which generally require significantly higher minimum initial investments or are generally available only to institutional investors. The benefits received through participation in the SI program may or may not depend upon the number of transactions directed to, or amount of assets custodied by, Schwab. Participation in the SI program may result in 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. It should be noted that we receive no fees, rebates, or any kind of monetary compensation from Schwab. Nonetheless, we have reviewed the services of Schwab and recommend their 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. 10  If a client, when undertaking an advisory relationship with our firm, already has a pre-established relationship with a broker other than Schwab and asks us to execute all transactions through that broker, it should be understood that under those circumstances we may not have the ability to negotiate commissions, obtain volume discounts and best execution may not be achieved. In addition, under these circumstances a disparity in commission charges may exist between the commissions charged to other clients since our firm may not be able to aggregate orders to reduce transaction costs or the client may receive less favorable prices. 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. Trade Aggregation: We may aggregate client trades when doing so is advantageous to our clients. Mostly, we will batch client transactions to receive volume discounts and to obtain better and more uniform pricing across client accounts. If we determine that aggregation of trades in a certain situation will be beneficial to our clients, transactions will be averaged as to price and will be allocated among our clients in proportion to the purchase and sale orders placed for each client account on any given day. Any exceptions from the pro-rata allocation procedure will be carefully explained and documented. Such exceptions may occur due to varying cash availability across accounts, divergent investment objectives and existing concentrations, and desire to avoid “odd lots” (an amount of a security that is less than the normal unit of trading for that particular security). Certain fixed income securities may be available only in limited quantities. When that occurs, we will allocate those securities among eligible client accounts in a manner that we believe is consistent and fair, considering factors such as suitability, account size, portfolio structure, available cash, and existing exposures. Item 13. Review of Accounts Portfolio Management/Model Portfolio Management Services The following individuals are primarily responsible for client account reviews:  Christopher S. Ryan, CFA, CEO & CIO, Sr. Wealth Advisor  Matthew A. Owings, CFA, CFO, Sr. Wealth Advisor  Nathaniel L. Kaup, CFA, CCO, Wealth Advisor  William T. Van Domelen, CFP, Manager, Portfolio Trading The above individuals work as a team to continuously monitor the underlying securities in client accounts and perform regular reviews of account holdings for all clients. All 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 11  account holder’s personal, tax, or financial status. Geopolitical and macroeconomic specific events may also trigger reviews. In addition to the monthly statements and confirmations of transactions that clients receive from their broker dealer, our firm will provide periodic Portfolio Review reports which review investment objective, asset allocation, investment holdings, and portfolio performance. Item 14. Client Referrals and Other Compensation Other than items already described in this Brochure, our firm does not receive any additional compensation from third parties for providing investment advice to its clients and does not compensate anyone for client referrals. Item 15. Custody Custody is defined as any legal or actual ability by our firm to access client funds or securities. Since all client funds and securities are maintained with a qualified custodian, we do not take physical possession of client assets. However, under the current SEC rules, our firm is deemed to have constructive custody of client assets solely due to our ability to debit management fees in arrears directly from client accounts. We urge clients to carefully review and compare their Portfolio Review reports received from us to reports they receive from their custodian(s). Should you notice any discrepancies, 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 advisory agreement and custodial paperwork. 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 Advisory clients generally elect to delegate their proxy voting authority to us. Alternatively, clients may, at their election, choose to receive proxies related to their own accounts. To direct us to vote a proxy in a particular manner, clients should contact Nathaniel L. Kaup, Chief Compliance Officer, by telephone, electronic mail, or in writing. We only accept proxy voting responsibility for portfolios 12  we manage with discretionary authority. Please note that index funds and ETFs require the index fund provider (iShares, Vanguard, etc.) to vote proxies. Since Ryan Investments uses index funds and ETFs almost exclusively, we rarely vote any proxies. When we have discretion to vote proxies for our clients, we will vote those proxies in the best interests of our clients and in accordance with our established policies and procedures. Our firm will retain all proxy voting books and records for the requisite period of time, including a copy of each proxy statement received, a record of each vote cast, a copy of any document created by us that was material to making a decision how to vote proxies, and a copy of each written client request for information on how the advisor voted proxies. If our firm has a conflict of interest in voting a particular action, we will notify the client of the conflict and retain an independent third party to cast a vote. Clients may obtain a copy of our complete proxy voting policies and procedures by contacting Nathaniel L. Kaup directly. Clients may request, in writing, information on how proxies for his/her shares were voted. If any client requests a copy of our complete proxy policies and procedures or how we voted proxies for his/her account(s), we will promptly provide such information to the client. Item 18. Financial Information RI charges fees in arrears, rather than in advance, and therefore it is not required to include our firm’s balance sheet with this brochure. That said, RI has no financial impairments that would preclude the firm from meeting contractual commitments to clients nor has RI or its principals ever been the subject of a bankruptcy petition.

Summary of Professional Designations Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) The Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) charter is a globally respected, graduate-level investment credential established in 1962 and awarded by CFA Institute — the largest global association of investment professionals. There are currently more than 90,000 CFA charter holders working in 135 countries. To earn the CFA charter, candidates must: 1) pass three sequential, six-hour examinations; 2) have at least four years of qualified professional investment experience; 3) join CFA Institute as members; and 4) commit to abide by, and annually reaffirm, their adherence to the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. High Ethical Standards The CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, enforced through an active professional conduct program, require CFA charter holders to: • Place their clients’ interests ahead of their own • Maintain independence and objectivity • Act with integrity • Maintain and improve their professional competence • Disclose conflicts of interest and legal matters Global Recognition Passing the three CFA exams is a difficult feat that requires extensive study (successful candidates report spending an average of 300 hours of study per level). Earning the CFA charter demonstrates mastery of many of the advanced skills needed for investment analysis and decision making in today’s quickly evolving global financial industry. As a result, employers and clients are increasingly seeking CFA charter holders—often making the charter a prerequisite for employment. 4  Additionally, regulatory bodies in 19 countries recognize the CFA charter as a proxy for meeting certain licensing requirements, and more than 125 colleges and universities around the world have incorporated a majority of the CFA Program curriculum into their own finance courses. Comprehensive and Current Knowledge The CFA Program curriculum provides a comprehensive framework of knowledge for investment decision making and is firmly grounded in the knowledge and skills used every day in the investment profession. The three levels of the CFA Program test a proficiency with a wide range of fundamental and advanced investment topics, including ethical and professional standards, fixed- income and equity analysis, alternative and derivative investments, economics, financial reporting standards, portfolio management, and wealth planning. The CFA Program curriculum is updated every year by experts from around the world to ensure that candidates learn the most relevant and practical new tools, ideas, and investment and wealth management skills to reflect the dynamic and complex nature of the profession.

Certified Financial Planner (CFP) The Certified Financial Planner (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 many 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. High Educational Standards CFP candidates must 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 U.S. 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 and Ethics CFP holders must pass the comprehensive CFP Certification Examination, which 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. Furthermore, they must complete at least three years of full-time financial planning-related experience. Those who hold the CFP 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. Ongoing Ethical and Educational Requirements Individuals who become certified must complete ongoing education and ethics requirements in order to maintain the right to continue to use the CFP marks. They are expected to complete 30 5  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. They also 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.
