Item 4 – Advisory Services
A. Firm Information
StoneCrest Wealth Management, Inc. (“StoneCrest” or the “Advisor”) is a registered investment advisor with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Advisor is organized as a Corporation under the laws of
the State of Arizona. StoneCrest was founded in May 1987 and became a registered investment advisor in
December 2020. StoneCrest is owned by K. Casey Mahan (President, Managing Principal, and Chief Compliance
Officer).
This Disclosure Brochure provides information regarding the qualifications, business practices, and the advisory
services provided by StoneCrest. For information regarding this Disclosure Brochure, please contact Mr. Mahan at
(602) 258-9400.
B. Advisory Services Offered
StoneCrest offers investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates, small
businesses, and retirement plans (each referred to as a “Client”).
The Advisor 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. StoneCrest'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.
Wealth Management Services
StoneCrest provides customized investment advisory solutions for its Clients. This is achieved through continuous
personal Client contact and interaction while providing discretionary investment management and related advisory
services. StoneCrest 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. StoneCrest will then construct an investment
portfolio, consisting primarily of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds to achieve the Client’s
investment goals. The Advisor may also utilize individual stocks, individual bonds and/or other types of
investments, as appropriate, to meet the needs of the 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 the Client.
StoneCrest’s investment strategies are primarily long-term focused, but the Advisor may buy, sell or re-allocate
positions that have been held for less than one year to meet the objectives of the Client or due to market
conditions. StoneCrest will construct, implement and monitor the portfolio to ensure it meets the goals, objectives,
circumstances, and risk tolerance agreed to by the Client. Each Client will have the opportunity to place reasonable
restrictions on the types of investments to be held in their respective portfolio, subject to acceptance by the Advisor.
StoneCrest evaluates and selects investments for inclusion in Client portfolios only after applying its internal due
diligence process. StoneCrest may recommend, on occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify the
portfolio. StoneCrest may recommend specific positions to increase sector or asset class weightings. The Advisor
may recommend employing cash positions as a possible hedge against market movement. StoneCrest may
recommend selling positions for reasons that include, but are not limited to, harvesting capital gains or losses,
business or sector risk exposure to a specific security or class of securities, overvaluation or overweighting of the
position[s] in the portfolio, change in risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet Client needs, or any risk
deemed unacceptable for the Client’s risk tolerance.
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
StoneCrest Wealth Management, Inc.

Phone: (602) 258-9400 * Fax: (602) 258-9300
Page 5
https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
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.
At no time will StoneCrest 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 the designated account[s] at the
Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
Third-Party Access Platforms – As part of the Advisor’s Wealth Management Services, when appropriate, the
Advisor will use a third party platform to facilitate management of held away assets such as defined contribution
plan participant accounts, with discretion.
The Advisor may use third-party platforms to access, aggregate, or manage certain client accounts that are held
away from the Advisor’s primary custodians, such as employer-sponsored retirement plans or other externally
maintained accounts. These platforms allow clients to grant the Advisor authorized access to account information
and, where permitted, limited account management capabilities.
Access to such accounts is provided solely at the client’s direction and subject to the permissions granted by the
client through the third-party platform. Recommendations to have assets managed through a third-party platform
pose a conflict between the interests of the Advisor and the interests of the Client. Assets managed through a third-
party platform increases the level of investment assets with the Advisor, as it would increase the amount of
advisory fees paid to the Advisor. Clients are not obligated to have the Advisor manage held-away assets by the
Advisor.
Financial Planning Services
StoneCrest will typically provide a variety of financial planning and consulting services to Clients. Financial planning
services are included with the Advisor’s wealth management services. Services are offered in several areas of a
Client’s financial situation, depending on their goals and objectives. Generally, such financial planning services
involve preparing a formal financial plan or rendering a specific financial consultation based on the Client’s financial
goals and objectives. This planning or consulting may encompass one or more areas of need, including but not
limited to, investment planning, retirement planning, personal savings, education savings, insurance needs, and/or
other areas of a Client’s financial situation.
A financial plan developed for, or financial consultation rendered to the Client will usually include general
recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the Client. For example,
recommendations may be made that the Client start or revise their investment programs, commence or alter
retirement savings, establish education savings and/or charitable giving programs.
StoneCrest may also refer Clients to an accountant, attorney or other specialists, as appropriate for their unique
situation. For certain financial planning engagements, the Advisor will provide a written summary of the Client’s
financial situation, observations, and recommendations.
Financial planning and consulting recommendations pose a conflict between the interests of the Advisor and the
interests of the Client. For example, the Advisor has an incentive to recommend that Clients increase the level of
investment assets with the Advisor, as it would increase the amount of advisory fees paid to the Advisor. Clients
are not obligated to implement any recommendations made by the Advisor or maintain an ongoing relationship with
the Advisor. If the Client elects to act on any of the recommendations made by the Advisor, the Client is under no
obligation to implement the transaction through the Advisor.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
StoneCrest may provide investment advisory services on behalf of the Plan and Plan Sponsor, which may be in
either a 3(21) or 3(38) context depending on whether or not the Advisor is also providing discretionary investment
management over the Plan assets. For 3(38) services, the Advisor shall have the discretion to select the

and all direct and indirect compensation the Advisor reasonably expects under the engagement.
C. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging StoneCrest to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into one or
more agreements with the Advisor that define the terms, conditions, authority and responsibilities of the Advisor
and the Client. These services may include:

seeks to achieve the Client’s goals and objectives.

investment objectives, time horizon, financial situation and tolerance for risk for each Client.

●

D. Wrap Fee Programs
StoneCrest does not manage or place Client assets into a wrap fee program. Investment management services are
provided directly by StoneCrest.
E. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2025, StoneCrest manages $375,821,951 in Client assets, $338,632,495 of which are
managed on a discretionary basis and $37,189,456 on a non-discretionary basis. Clients may request more current
information at any time by contacting the Advisor.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the
Advisor. Each Client engaging the Advisor for services described herein shall be required to enter into one or more
written agreements with the Advisor.
A. Fees for Advisory Services
Wealth Management Services
Wealth management fees are paid monthly, at the end of each month pursuant to the terms of the wealth
management agreement. Wealth management fees are based on the average daily closing market value of assets
under management at the during the month. Wealth management fees range from 0.78% to 1.50% annually based
on several factors, including: the scope and complexity of the services to be provided; the level of assets to be
managed; the inclusion of financial planning services, and/or the overall relationship with the Advisor. Relationships

https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
with multiple objectives, specific reporting requirements, portfolio restrictions and other complexities may be
charged a higher fee. The wealth management fee may be offered as a fixed annual rate or a tiered, incremental
fee schedule, not to exceed to the range above. Clients with under $1,000,000 in assets under management with
the firm may be charged a monthly technology fee of $4.25 by the Advisor for the Advisor’s portfolio reporting
technology. This fee will be included with the wealth management fee on a quarterly basis.
The wealth management fee in the first month of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first month. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor. The Client’s fees will take into
consideration the aggregate assets under management with the Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed
by StoneCrest will be independently valued by the Custodian. StoneCrest will conduct periodic reviews of the
Custodian’s valuations.
The Advisor’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to any applicable securities transaction and custody fees, and
other related costs and expenses described in Item 5.C below, which may be incurred by the Client. However, the
Advisor shall not receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.
Third-Party Access Platforms
For assets managed through a third-party platform, the Client is not charged any additional platform fees. The
Advisor bears the cost of the platform in order to service these Client assets. Advisory fees apply to assets
accessed and managed through the platform as part of the Client’s assets under management, as disclosed above.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Fees for retirement plan advisory services are charged an annual asset-based fee of up to 1.00%, billed in arrears,
pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Retirement plan fees are based on the market value of assets under
management at the end of the prior calendar month. Fees may be negotiable depending on the size and complexity
of the Plan.
B. Fee Billing
Wealth Management Services
Wealth management fees are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at
the Custodian. The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted
from the Client’s account[s] at the end of each month. The amount due is calculated by applying the period rate
(annual rate divided by the number of days in the year multiplied by the number of days in the billing month) to the
total average daily balance with StoneCrest at the end of the month. Clients will be provided with a statement, at
least quarterly, from the Custodian reflecting deduction of the wealth management fee. Clients are urged to also
review and compare the statement provided by the Advisor to the brokerage statement from the Custodian, as the
Custodian does not perform a verification of fees. Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to
be deducted by StoneCrest to be paid directly from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the wealth
management agreement and separate account forms provided by the Custodian.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Retirement plan advisory fees may be directly invoiced to the Plan Sponsor or deducted from the assets of the
Plan, depending on the terms of the retirement plan advisory agreement.
C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients may incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than StoneCrest, in connection with
investments made on behalf of the Client’s account[s]. The Advisor's recommended Custodian[s] typically do not
charge securities transaction fees for ETF and equity trades in Client account[s], provided that the account meets
the terms and conditions of the Custodian's brokerage requirements. Many mutual funds are also available at no
trading cost to the Client and no 12b-1 fees. These are typically referred to as “clean shares”. The Advisor may, at
times, select a mutual fund that has a transaction fee when not comparable fund is offered without such fees. In
such instances, the Advisor (at its sole discretion) may rebate the securities transaction fees to the Client. The fees
charged by StoneCrest are separate and distinct from these custody and execution fees, if applicable. In addition,
all fees paid to StoneCrest for wealth management services are separate and distinct from the expenses charged
StoneCrest Wealth Management, Inc.
118 S Kyrene Road, Suite 4, Chandler, AZ 85226
Phone: (602) 258-9400 * Fax: (602) 258-9300
Page 8
https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
by mutual funds and ETFs to their shareholders, if applicable. These fees and expenses are described in each
fund’s prospectus. These fees and expenses will generally be used to pay management fees for the funds, other
fund expenses, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage and account reporting), and a possible distribution
fee. A Client may be able to invest in these products directly, without the services of StoneCrest, but would not
receive the services provided by StoneCrest which are designed, among other things, to assist the Client in
determining which products or services are most appropriate for each Client’s financial situation and objectives.
Accordingly, the Client should review both the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by StoneCrest to
fully understand the total fees to be paid. Please refer to Item 12 – Brokerage Practices for additional information.
D. Advance Payment of Fees and Termination
Wealth Management Services
StoneCrest may be compensated for its investment management services at the end of the month after services
are rendered. Either party may terminate the wealth management agreement, at any time, by providing advance
written notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the wealth management agreement within five (5)
business days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will
incur charges for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and
payable by the Client. The Client’s wealth management agreement with the Advisor is non-transferable without the
Client’s prior consent.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
StoneCrest is compensated for its services at the end of the billing period after advisory services are rendered.
Either party may terminate the retirement plan advisory agreement, at any time, by providing advance written notice
to the other party. The Client shall be responsible for retirement plan advisory fees up to and including the effective
date of termination. The Advisor will provide a prorated final invoice based on any accrued retirement plan advisory
fees from the beginning of the billing period to the effective date of termination. The Client’s retirement plan
advisory agreement with the Advisor is non-transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
StoneCrest does not buy or sell securities to earn commissions and does not receive any compensation for
securities transactions in any Client account, other than the wealth management fees noted above.
Advisory Persons are also a Registered Representative of Kingswood Capital Partners, LLC (CRD#: 288898/SEC#:
8-69967) (“Kingswood”). Kingswood is a registered broker-dealer and member FINRA, SIPC. In an one’s separate
capacity as a Registered Representative, an Advisory Person may implement securities transactions under
Kingswood as a transaction account and not through StoneCrest in an advisory account. In such instances, the
Advisory Person will receive commission-based compensation in connection with the purchase and sale of
securities, including 12b-1 fees for the sale of investment company products. Compensation earned by the
Advisory Person in one’s capacity as a Registered Representative is separate and in addition to the Advisor’s fees.
This practice presents a conflict of interest as the Advisory Person may have an incentive to effect securities
transactions for the purpose of generating commissions rather than solely based on the Client’s needs. Clients are
not obligated to implement any recommendation provided by the Advisor nor its Advisory Persons. Neither the
Advisor nor its Advisory Persons will earn ongoing investment advisory fees in connection with any products or
services implemented in the Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative. Please see Item
10 below.
Certain Advisory Persons are licensed as independent insurance professionals. As an independent insurance
professional, an Advisory Person may earn commission-based compensation for selling insurance products,
including insurance products offered to Clients. Insurance commissions earned by the Advisory Person are
separate and in addition to investment advisory fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest as an Advisory
Person who is also an insurance professional will have an incentive to recommend insurance products to the Client
for the purpose of generating commissions rather than solely based on the Client’s needs. Clients are under no
obligation, contractual or otherwise, to purchase insurance products through any Advisory Person affiliated with the
Advisor. Please see Item 10 below.

Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Stonecrest may offer a performance-based fee option to certain Clients. In such cases, Stonecrest may receive a
performance fee in addition to its wealth management fees based upon any gains obtained in the accounts of
“Qualified Clients” pursuant to the terms a wealth management agreement. Only Qualified Clients with either
$1,100,000 under management with the Advisor or a net worth of $2,200,000 may be offered a performance-based
fee option.
The performance-based fee is attainable up to a 10% return on investment (ROI) within the portfolio. The fee
ranges from a minimum of .25% to a maximum .7% on the ROI. Should the Advisor attain a 0% or any negative
return % for ROI, the minimum still applies. Performance fees will be deducted from the Client account[s] on an
annual basis, in accordance with the Advisor’s calculation methodology. The advisor and the client will decide
upon an index or fixed percentage benchmark based on the client’s risk tolerance, investment preferences, and
size of the client’s account or total relationship with the advisor. The advisor reserves the right to negotiate the
terms based on these factors or based on the advisor’s relationship with the client (both financial and personal).
The performance-based fees will begin accruing to the Advisor on a monthly basis upon opening of the Client account.
Fees are calculated based on the monthly account[s] valuations as provided by the Client’s designated Custodian
(as noted in Item 4.). Investment Advisory Fees are billed annually, but based on partial month calculations if the
performance exceeds the high watermark. Examples of partial months are the day the account(s) is opened, and the
day the account(s) is closed. The advisor reserves the right to deduct fees part way through the year if the client is
ending the arrangement. If the account is closed without the advisor’s advanced knowledge, the advisor reserves
the right to send the client a written invoice.
Clients will receive independent statements from the Custodian monthly.
Only gains above the high-water mark shall be subject to the performance fee. The Advisor will receive the
performance fee only to the extent that there are cumulative gains since the last performance fee calculation in the
Client's account[s] that produced fees payable to the Advisor. Performance fees may be negotiable at the discretion
of the Advisor. Stonecrest does not charge an asset-based fee for assets invested being billed on a performance
fee basis.
Performance fees will be earned if the performance is above the agreed upon benchmarks performance or a fixed
percentage threshold. The Advisor and Client will come to an agreement for the performance threshold based upon
the Client’s investment preferences and the Client’s risk tolerance. The performance threshold will be EITHER an
agreed upon benchmark or an agreed upon fixed threshold. The benchmark will be identified on Schedule A. If the
client and advisor have agreed to use a fixed percentage, please indicate the percentage below with client initials.
Who is a “Qualified Client”?
The Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”), Rule 205-3(d)(1) defines a “Qualified Client” who is
financially sophisticated and meets one or more of the following conditions:
● Client is a natural person who, or a company that, immediately after entering into the contract has at least
$1,100,000 under the management of the Advisor;
● Client is a natural person who, or a company that, immediately prior to entering into the contract has a net
worth (together, in the case of a natural person, with assets held jointly with a spouse) of more than
$2,200,000 at the time the contract is entered into.
The receipt of a performance fee by certain Clients results in a potential conflict of interest, where the Advisor has
the potential for higher compensation from a Client. Qualified Clients that are charged a performance fee may be
offered a lower investment advisory fee.

Stonecrest does not manage any proprietary investment funds or limited partnerships (for example, a mutual fund
or a hedge fund) and has no financial incentive to recommend any particular investment options to its Clients.
Item 7 – Types of Clients
StoneCrest offers investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates, small
businesses, and retirement plans. StoneCrest generally does not impose a minimum relationship size.
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
StoneCrest primarily employs fundamental and technical analysis methods in developing investment strategies for
its Clients. Research and analysis from StoneCrest are 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 utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. This criteria
consists generally of ratios and trends that may indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the entity being
analyzed. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to indicate that they are a strong investment with
a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment,
it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in
the fundamental analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors
these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the
Advisor’s review process are included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data rather than specific company data in determining the
recommendations made to clients. Technical analysis may involve the use of charts to identify market patterns and
trends, which may be based on investor sentiment rather than the fundamentals of the company. The primary risk
in using technical analysis is that spotting historical trends may not help to predict such trends in the future. Even if
the trend will eventually reoccur, there is no guarantee that StoneCrest will be able to accurately predict such a
reoccurrence.
As noted above, StoneCrest generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its Clients, as consistent with
their financial goals. StoneCrest 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,
StoneCrest 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. StoneCrest 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. The Advisor monitors these economic indicators to
determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s review process are
included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
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[s]. 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 has 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.
Bond ETFs
Bond ETFs are subject to specific risks, including the following: (1) interest rate risks, i.e. the risk that bond prices
will fall if interest rates rise, and vice versa, the risk depends on two things, the bond's time to maturity, and the
coupon rate of the bond. (2) reinvestment risk, i.e. the risk that any profit gained must be reinvested at a lower rate
than was previously being earned, (3) inflation risk, i.e. the risk that the cost of living and inflation increase at a rate
that exceeds the income investment thereby decreasing the investor’s rate of return, (4) credit default risk, i.e. the
risk associated with purchasing a debt instrument which includes the possibility of the company defaulting on its
repayment obligation, (5) rating downgrades, i.e. the risk associated with a rating agency’s downgrade of the
company’s rating which impacts the investor’s confidence in the company’s ability to repay its debt and (6) Liquidity
Risks, i.e. the risk that a bond may not be sold as quickly as there is no readily available market for the bond.
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 StoneCrest or its management person[s].
StoneCrest values the trust Clients place in the Advisor. The Advisor encourages Clients to perform the requisite
due diligence on any advisor or service provider that the Client engages. The backgrounds of the Advisor or
Advisory Persons are available on the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website at www.adviserinfo.sec.gov by
searching with the Advisor’s firm name or CRD# 311404.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Broker-Dealer Affiliation
As noted in Item 5, Advisory Persons are also Registered Representatives of Kingswood. In one’s separate
capacity as a Registered Representative, an Advisory Person will receive commissions for the implementation of
recommendations for commissionable transactions. Clients are not obligated to implement any recommendation
StoneCrest Wealth Management, Inc.

Phone: (602) 258-9400 * Fax: (602) 258-9300
Page 12
https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
provided by the Advisory Person. Neither the Advisor nor its Advisory Persons will earn ongoing investment
advisory fees in connection with any services implemented in the Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a
Registered Representative.
Insurance Agency Affiliations
As noted in Item 5, certain Advisory Persons are licensed insurance professionals. Implementations of insurance
recommendations are separate and apart from one’s role with StoneCrest. As an insurance professional, the
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 investment advisory fees. This
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 Advisory Persons.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
StoneCrest 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 StoneCrest (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was
developed to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding the Advisor’s duties to each
Client. StoneCrest and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client. It
is the obligation of StoneCrest’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 (602) 258-9400 or via email
at info@stonecrestwealth.com.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
StoneCrest allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. StoneCrest 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. StoneCrest does not have a
material interest in any securities traded in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
StoneCrest 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 that are 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 have 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 StoneCrest requiring reporting of personal securities trades by its Supervised Persons for review by
the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) or delegate. 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 StoneCrest 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 afterwards. At
no time will StoneCrest, or any Supervised Person of StoneCrest, transact in any security to the detriment
of any Client.

https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodian[s]
StoneCrest 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 StoneCrest to direct trades to the Custodian as agreed upon in the wealth management agreement.
Further, StoneCrest does not have the discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on behalf of Clients on a
trade-by-trade basis.
Where StoneCrest does not exercise discretion over the selection of the Custodian, it may recommend the
Custodian to Clients for custody and execution services. Clients are not obligated to use the recommended
Custodian by the Advisor and will not incur any extra fee or cost associated with using a custodian not
recommended by StoneCrest. However, the Advisor may be limited in the services it can provide if the
recommended Custodian is not engaged. StoneCrest 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, and its
reputation and/or the location of the Custodian’s offices. As Advisory Persons of StoneCrest are also Registered
Representatives of Kingswood, the Advisor may be limited in using other broker-dealers/custodians as Kingswood
must approve the use of any outside broker-dealer/custodian.
StoneCrest Wealth Management will generally recommend that Clients establish their account[s] at Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. (“Raymond James”) member New York Stock Exchange/SIPC. Raymond James is a
FINRA-registered broker-dealer and member SIPC Raymond James will serve as the Client’s “qualified custodian”.
StoneCrest Wealth Management maintains an institutional relationship with Raymond James, whereby the Advisor
receives economic benefits. Please see Item 14 below.
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. StoneCrest does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or offered by any broker-
dealer/custodian. However, the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from Raymond James. Please see Item
14 below.
2. Brokerage Referrals - StoneCrest 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 StoneCrest 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]. 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]). StoneCrest 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 taking into account such factors as 1) price, 2) size of the order, 3) difficulty of execution,
4) confidentiality and 5) skill required of the Custodian. StoneCrest will execute its transactions through the
Custodian as authorized by the Client. StoneCrest 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 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.

https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
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 the Advisor
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 StoneCrest 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 StoneCrest
StoneCrest is a fee-based advisory firm, that is compensated solely by its Clients and not from any investment
product. StoneCrest does not receive commissions or other compensation from product sponsors, broker-dealers
or any un-related third party. StoneCrest may refer Clients to various unaffiliated, non-advisory professionals (e.g.
attorneys, accountants, estate planners) to provide certain financial services necessary to meet the goals of its
Clients. Likewise, StoneCrest may receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various third-parties.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform (Raymond James)
StoneCrest has established an institutional relationship with Raymond James to assist the Advisor in managing Client
account[s]. Access to the Raymond James platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Advisor receives
access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services
to Clients that maintain assets at Raymond James. 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.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
The Advisor does not compensate, either directly or indirectly, any affiliated or unaffiliated parties (“Promoters”) for
Client referrals.
Item 15 – Custody
The Advisor is authorized to deduct its fees from the Client’s account[s] at the Custodian. The Client must place all
assets with a “qualified custodian”. The Client is required to engage the Custodian to retain all funds and securities
and direct the Advisor to utilize that Custodian for security transactions in the account[s]. The Client should review
statements provided by the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform this review. For more information about
custodians and brokerage practices, see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.

https://www.stonecrestwealth.com
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
StoneCrest 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 StoneCrest. 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 a wealth management agreement containing all applicable
limitations to such authority. All discretionary trades made by StoneCrest will be in accordance with each Client's
investment objectives and goals.
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
StoneCrest does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive proxy statements directly
from the Custodian. The Advisor will assist in answering questions relating to proxies, however, the Client retains
the sole responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither StoneCrest, nor its management, have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the
ability of StoneCrest to meet all obligations to its Clients. Neither StoneCrest, nor any of its Advisory Persons, have
been subject to a bankruptcy or financial compromise. StoneCrest is not required to deliver a balance sheet along
with this Disclosure Brochure as the Advisor does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for services to be
performed six months or more in the future.

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 87,000 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;

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;

equivalent, measured as 2,000 hours per year); and

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

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.

enforcement process, which could result in suspension or permanent revocation of their CFP®.
