Advisory Business Successful Portfolios LLC (SP) is an investment advisor firm that provides personalized financial planning and investment management services to individuals, families, and organizations. We create customized portfolios tailored to each client's unique needs, goals, and risk tolerance, using a wide range of readily marketable securities, including stocks, bonds, options, and Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). Our approach is rooted in a deep understanding of investor psychology, financial markets, and the rigorous analysis of investment opportunities. As of March 24, 2026, SP managed approximately $281.5 Million in client assets. Discretionary assets accounted for about 92% of total managed assets. SP manages about 580 separate accounts across 200 households. Parker Evans, CFA, CFP, founded Successful Portfolios in February 2010. He is the President and Chief Compliance Officer and owns 95% of SP shares. Joe Baer, APMA, is the Chief Operating Officer and owns 5% of SP shares. 2. Fees and Compensation Full-Service Custom Asset Management Below is the fee schedule for our custom asset management services. While you may be charged separate commissions or account fees by your chosen custodian, please be aware that SP does not share in any of these payments. Assets Under Management Annualized Compensation First $1,000,000 Next $1,000,000 Next $1,000,000 Next $1,000,000 Next $1,000,000 Over $5,000,000 1.25% .95% .80% .70% .60% .50% We bill our advisory fees after the service period (in arrears). Depending on your custodian, fees are calculated and applied either daily or monthly. Our management fees are negotiable based on the size, strategy, and complexity of your account. Performance-Based Fee Alternative As an alternative to our full-service fee schedule, qualified investors, as defined by the SEC here, may negotiate a performance fee compensation arrangement based on a set percentage of the client’s quarterly mark-to-market account profit, subject to a high watermark. In this arrangement, SP receives no compensation unless the client shows a profit in his account. Hourly Fee Financial Planning Successful Portfolios also offers a la carte financial planning services at an hourly rate of $300. Clients do not need an investment management account to engage SP in financial planning, and having an SP www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  4 investment management account does not mean a client must hire SP for financial planning. 3. Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management We do not favor performance-based fee accounts over standard fee accounts. Our policy prohibits post- allocating client trades to performance-based fee accounts or other accounts. We execute trades in performance-based fee accounts in the same manner as other trades. 4. Types of Clients We provide investment advice and management services to a range of clients, including: • Individuals and families • High-net-worth individuals • Trusts and estates • Pension and profit-sharing plans • Charitable organizations • Corporations and other businesses Our minimum combined account size for Full-Service Custom Investment Management is $100,000. However, we may waive this requirement at our discretion. www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  5 5. Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss At Successful Portfolios, our investment process starts with listening to you. We work closely with you to understand your unique risk tolerance, return objectives, time horizon, tax considerations, and other factors shaping your financial goals. Our team provides personalized guidance and solutions based on a thorough understanding of your situation. Our relationship is a collaboration, and we value your input and participation in the investment process. What sets us apart is our commitment to ongoing communication, our expertise in tax-aware investing, and our dedication to helping you achieve your long-term financial objectives. We employ a multi-faceted research process to identify opportunities and manage risk: Fundamental Analysis: Evaluating financial health, competitive positioning, and management quality. We analyze earnings estimates, debt levels, and industry trends to find companies with long-term growth potential. Primary risks include unforeseen competitive threats and broader economic changes. Technical Analysis: Forecasting price movements by analyzing historical market data. We utilize chart patterns, Fibonacci retracements and projections, momentum indicators, and trend lines to gauge market sentiment. Primary risks include the subjective nature of chart interpretation and the potential for "false" signals. Quantitative Analysis: We use mathematical and statistical modeling to identify factor exposures, volatility, and correlations for optimized portfolio construction. By leveraging the IBKR Risk Navigator, we perform real-time "what-if" scenarios and measure portfolio sensitivity through Monte Carlo simulations and VaR (Value at Risk). This allows us to proactively stress-test our positions against various www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  6 market shocks. Primary risks include model errors and the possibility that historical relationships may not persist. We plan and manage portfolios that align with each client's risk tolerance and return objectives. We recommend that clients maintain a well-diversified portfolio comprising readily marketable stocks, bonds, options, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These securities are subject to various risk factors, including: • Market Risk - the potential for investment losses due to factors that affect the overall performance of financial markets, such as recessions, political turmoil, changes in interest rates, natural disasters, and pandemics. • • • • Company- or Issuer-Specific Risk - the risk that the value of a security may decline due to factors that specifically affect that issuer, such as earnings or cash flow disappointments, management missteps, or competitive pressures. Interest Rate Risk - the risk that rising interest rates cause bond prices to drop or that declining interest rates reduce returns on money market assets. Inflation Risk—the risk that a portfolio's purchasing power can erode due to increases in the general price level of goods and services. Sequence of Return Risk - the risk that the order and timing of investment returns adversely impact overall performance. Retirement income portfolios can be especially vulnerable to this risk, as negative returns early in retirement can significantly reduce the portfolio's longevity, even if the long-term average return is positive. We encourage clients to read our blog post, "How to Identify and Manage Risk," for further discussion of investment risks and mitigation strategies. At Successful Portfolios, we want you to understand that investing involves risk. While our team works diligently to craft personalized investment strategies, we cannot promise any specific outcome or rate of return. You should be prepared for periodic gains and losses in your account, as market fluctuations are a normal part of the investment process. It's important to remember that no investment strategy can eliminate all risks or guarantee extraordinary profits. However, a well-conceived investment strategy, based on careful risk management techniques such as diversification, strategic asset allocation, and patience, is essential for mitigating risk and helping you achieve your long-term financial goals. Our investment strategies include: • Long-term equity investing: We seek to identify companies with favorable fundamentals, competitive advantages, and attractive valuations. • Fixed income investment: We construct bond portfolios for income and stability, focusing on investment-grade issues and laddered maturity profiles. • Tactical and strategic asset allocation: We adjust asset allocation in response to client direction, changing risk tolerance, and changing market conditions to optimize risk-adjusted returns and client satisfaction. • Core-satellite strategy: We build portfolios with a mix of core exchange-traded funds, which provide broad market exposure and diversification, and satellite holdings, which are assets that we select to enhance returns or provide additional diversification benefits. This approach www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  7 combines the advantages of both passive and active investing while controlling overall portfolio risk. • Tax-aware strategies: We manage accounts, including IRA withdrawals, to help you reduce income taxes and optimize after-tax returns. By employing techniques such as investing in tax- free municipal bonds, harvesting tax losses, strategically placing assets, and thoughtfully rebalancing, we strive to minimize the impact of taxes on your investment performance. When making investment decisions, we seek tax-advantaged qualified dividend income (QDI), long- term capital gains, or step-up-in-basis tax avoidance. At Successful Portfolios, our professionals craft personalized investment strategies aligned with each client's unique financial situation, goals, and risk tolerance. Our team takes the time to thoroughly understand your needs and preferences, ensuring that we tailor your portfolio to your specific circumstances. By employing a range of potential investment strategies and carefully managing risk, we strive to deliver satisfactory, risk-adjusted returns over the long term. Our goal is to help you achieve your financial objectives while providing peace of mind and exceptional service every step of the way. 6. Disciplinary Information Registered investment advisers are required to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or disciplinary events that would be material to your evaluation of Successful Portfolios or the integrity of our management. Our firm and our management personnel have no reportable disciplinary events or legal actions. We remain committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity and transparency for our clients. 7. Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Successful Portfolios is an independent Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) not owned or controlled by any other RIA, broker-dealer, bank, or insurance company. Our sole focus is advising clients and planning and managing their investment portfolios. Additionally, Successful Portfolios serves as the Portfolio Manager and Administrator for two private pooled investment vehicles, Evans Cook LLC (EC) and Barrett Evans Capital LLC (BEC). Interactive Brokers provides custody for EC and BEC. As of March 25, 2026, EC's net assets amounted to $2,397,136.24, while BEC's totaled $1,287,925. Parker Evans holds shares in both EC and BEC. SP offers shares in these private investment vehicles exclusively to accredited investors through private offering memoranda and subscription agreements. 8. Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions, and Personal Trading SP requires each of its representatives to adhere to Successful Portfolios’ Code of Ethics as a condition of employment. Clients may request a copy of our Code of Ethics at any time by contacting us at info@successfulportfolios.com. We do not engage in principal transactions, where we buy or sell securities from our account to a client's account. We also do not engage in agency cross-transactions, acting as an intermediary between two clients. Representatives of Successful Portfolios may buy or sell securities for their accounts. However, our Code of Ethics establishes guidelines to reduce conflicts of interest and ensure that we prioritize our clients. www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  8 9. Brokerage Practices Successful Portfolios seeks to select and recommend brokerage firms that provide the best combination of execution quality, price, and services for our clients. Factors we consider when choosing a broker- dealer include: • Execution quality and cost • Research and other investment-related services. • Financial strength and stability • Reputation and regulatory history We do not engage in soft dollar arrangements or receive direct or indirect compensation from broker- dealers in exchange for client trades. Interactive Brokers (IB) and Charles Schwab have each approved SP participation in their independent registered investment advisor programs. These programs allow qualifying advisors to manage clients' brokerage accounts at these firms. Block Trading Procedures Successful Portfolios has designed its block trading procedures to treat all clients equitably. Whenever possible, we execute trades for multiple client accounts concurrently, and each client is allocated the average execution price for the combined transaction. We pre-allocate orders before submission to ensure fairness and transparency. 10. Review of Client Accounts SP conducts regular reviews of client accounts. Our investment professionals review portfolio performance and asset allocation annually and more frequently if significant changes in market conditions, client circumstances, or other factors impact the client's strategy or account performance. In addition to periodic reviews, Successful Portfolios may review your account based on potential triggers and information you bring to our attention, including: • Major life events, such as marriage, divorce, retirement, or the birth of a child. • Significant changes in the client's financial situation, goals, or risk tolerance. • Changes in tax laws or other regulations affecting investment markets. • Material market events or significant movements in the client's investments. Clients receive monthly account statements from their custodians detailing account holdings, transactions, fees paid, and other relevant information. We may also provide clients with a proprietary supplemental portfolio performance report and analysis at least once per year. 11. Client Referrals and Other Compensation SP does not pay for client referrals or accept remuneration from investment dealers or product sponsors. www.successfulportfolios.com | 611 Druid Road East, Suite 407, Clearwater, FL 33756  9 12. Custody of Client Assets Successful Portfolios does not maintain custody of client assets. Qualified custodians, including Interactive Brokers and Charles Schwab, hold all client assets in separate accounts in the client's name. Clients receive account statements directly from their custodian at least quarterly, detailing account holdings, transactions, and other relevant information. We encourage clients to review these statements carefully. The custodian will also prepare tax reports, such as 1099s, and make them available online for client download. For up-to-date information, we recommend that clients log in to their accounts by visiting their custodian’s website. We also provide clients with supplemental account reports and analyses. We manage variable annuity portfolios held at Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company. Nationwide Advisory Solutions is a recognized leader in providing no-load, low-cost, tax-deferred annuity solutions for clients of fee-only Registered Investment Advisors. Interactive Brokers and Chase Bank are qualified custodians for investors in Evans Cook LLC and Barrett Evans Capital LLC. Also, regulators may deem that we have custody of EC and BEC assets because we can pay expenses and process investor subscriptions and redemptions. For this reason, we are arranging for an annual surprise audit examination of EC and BEC by an independent public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. We will provide EC and BEC shareholders with a copy of the auditor’s results upon request. 13. Investment Discretion Successful Portfolios typically has discretionary authority to manage client accounts. This authority allows us to buy or sell securities without obtaining client consent for each transaction. Clients grant us this authority by executing an investment management agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of our services. A client's Investment Policy Statement may specify any restrictions or guidelines for a client's account. 14. Voting of Client Securities SP does not vote on corporate proxy statements on behalf of clients. Clients should submit vote proxies directly through their brokerage firm and may call us at (727) 744-3614 for assistance with proxy voting. 15. Financial Information Regarding Successful Portfolios LLC Regulations do not require Successful Portfolios to provide a detailed financial statement regarding our firm in this brochure.
