The Adviser was founded in 2000 by Dennis Tidmore, who is the principal owner. Services The Firm offers three primary services for qualified retirement plan sponsors: (i) searching for and recommending custodians for assets at the qualified retirement plan level, (ii) providing fiduciary governance services to defined contribution and defined benefit retirement plans, and (iii) providing both fiduciary governance services to qualified retirement plans and individualized investment advisory services to plan participants and individual retirement account (“IRA”) beneficiaries. We also provide fiduciary asset management to individual non-qualified accounts. We are available during normal business hours either by telephone, email, or in person by appointment to answer your questions. Asset Management and Financial Planning As part of the active asset management process, we will meet with you to discuss your financial circumstances, investment goals and objectives, and to determine your risk tolerance. We will ask you to provide statements summarizing current investments, income and other earnings, recent tax returns, retirement plan information, other assets and liabilities, wills and trusts, insurance policies, and other pertinent information. Based on the information you share with us, we will analyze your situation and tailor a portfolio with appropriate asset allocations and investment strategy[ies]. Our recommendations and ongoing management are based upon your investment goals, objectives and risk tolerance. We will monitor the account, trade as necessary, and communicate regularly with you. We will work with you on an ongoing basis to evaluate your asset allocation as well as rebalance your portfolio to keep it in line with your goals as necessary. We will be reasonably available to help you with questions about your account. * Please note that pursuant to the investment advisory agreement you are obligated to notify us promptly when your financial situation, goals, objectives, or needs change. * Under certain conditions, securities from outside accounts may be transferred into your advisory account; however, we may recommend that you sell any security if we believe that it is not suitable for the current recommended investment strategy. Additionally, trading may be required to meet initial allocation targets, after substantial cash deposits that require investment allocation, and/or after a request for a withdrawal that requires liquidation of a position. You shall not have the ability to impose restrictions on your account. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 4 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Periodically, your account may need to be rebalanced or reallocated in order to reestablish the targeted percentages of your initial asset allocation. This rebalancing or reallocation will occur as required or pursuant to the schedule we have determined together. You will be responsible for all tax consequences resulting from the sale of any security, rebalancing or reallocation of the account. You are responsible for any taxable events in these instances. We are not tax professionals and do not give tax advice. However, we will work with your tax professionals to assist you with tax planning. You will be notified of any purchases or sales through trade confirmations and statements that are provided by the custodian. These statements list the total value of the account, itemize all transaction activity, and list the types, amounts, and total value of securities held. You will at all times maintain full and complete ownership rights to all assets held in your account, including the right to withdraw securities or cash, proxy voting and receiving transaction confirmations. We may also provide you with quarterly performance statements. These statements give you additional feedback regarding performance, educate you about our long-term investment philosophy, and describe any changes in current strategy and allocation along with the reasons for making these changes. Clients with less than $250,000 in assets under management may purchase Annual Retirement Income Summary/Lifestyle Financial Plan Reports for an additional $750 fixed fee as a stand-alone service. Fee based financial planning is a comprehensive relationship which incorporates many different aspects of your financial status into an overall plan that meets your goals and objectives. The financial planning relationship consists of face-to-face meetings and ad hoc meetings with you and/or your other advisors (attorneys, accountants, etc.) as necessary. In performing financial planning services, we typically examine and analyze your overall financial situation, which may include issues such as taxes, insurance needs, overall debt, credit, business planning, retirement savings and reviewing your current investment program. Our services may focus on all or only one of these areas depending upon the scope of our engagement with you. It is essential that you provide the information and documentation we request regarding your income, investments, taxes, insurance, estate plan, etc. We will discuss your investment objectives, needs and goals, but you are obligated to inform us of any changes. We do not verify any information obtained from you, your attorney, accountant or other professionals. If you engage us to perform these services, you will receive a written agreement detailing the services, fees, terms and conditions of the relationship. You will also receive this Brochure. You are under no obligation to implement recommendations through us. You may implement your financial plan through any financial organization of your choice. We obtain information from a wide variety of publicly available sources. We do not have any inside private information about any investments that are recommended. All recommendations developed by us are based upon our professional judgment. We cannot guarantee the results of any of our recommendations. Choosing which advice to follow is your decision. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 5 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Co-advisory Services We have entered into a Co-Advisory Agreement with Belpointe Asset Management, LLC (“Belpointe”). If we determine that it is in your best interest, Belpointe shall act in a co-advisory capacity, enabling them to manage some or all of your account(s). In those instances, we will monitor the performance of the sub- advisor. The Co-Advisor shall be paid a portion of your advisory fee. Your fee shall not increase due to the use of a Co-Advisor. You shall receive the ADV Part 2A, privacy notice, Form CRS of the Co-Advisor prior to engaging in any such relationship. Simultaneously, we shall act a Co-Advisor and manage the accounts of clients of Belpointe. Providing Co- Advisory services to other investment advisors may present a conflict of interest. We require that all IARs disclose this conflict of interest. We also require IARs to disclose to clients that they may purchase recommended products from other representatives not affiliated with us. Our Code of Ethics requires our IARs do what is in the client’s best interests at all times. Our CCO monitors all transactions to ensure that representatives put their clients first, not any addition income they may receive. Retirement Plan Services For our firm’s Retirement Plan accounts, our service begins with an analysis of the current retirement plan structure, custodian, third-party administrator, daily record keeper, investments, managed investment models, and fees. The analysis is designed to determine if we are able to add value to the plan and what areas, if any, may be deficient from both a regulatory perspective and from a financial advisory perspective. We will offer you one or more of the following services: • Plan design and asset selection consultation • Develop and annually review Investment Policy Statement (“IPS”) • Develop investment menu according to the IPS • Monitor each investment option according to the IPS • Quarterly portfolio statements, rate of return reports, asset allocation statements • Provide investment research and performance information on investment options • Investment option replacement guidance • Personal consultations with the plan sponsor as necessary • Develop Plan Investment Committee Charter, as needed • Fiduciary due diligence assistance • Attendance at Plan Committee and other meetings • Annual Fiduciary Plan Review • Fiduciary education services to Plan Committee • Participant education, guidance, and enrollment • Vendor coordination assistance • Benchmarking services Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 6 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Plan Structure We will assist our client in evaluating the current plan’s structure to determine if a change in the design of the plan better suits the needs of plan participants. We will facilitate any changes with the appropriate parties including the third-party administrator, record keeper, and custodian as well as facilitating the execution of the required plan document amendments or new plan documents. However, we will not draft any amendments as an attorney or a TPA will need to perform this service. Investment Committee We will assist you in the establishment of the Investment Committee (if a Committee is deemed appropriate) and the establishment of a formal investment committee charter, delineating committee responsibilities and fiduciary roles. The Investment Committee may be charged with the fiduciary responsibility of the prudent management of the investment portfolio, selecting and retaining professional advisors to the portfolio including investment managers, investment consultants, custodians, attorneys, and clerical staff. We will assist the Investment Committee in meeting the committee’s responsibilities according to the investment committee charter, and fulfilling its fiduciary duty to the plan, including their review of service providers, third-party administration firms, daily record keeper, and custodian to ensure that their services, along with ours, remain competitive to other alternatives that are available to the client. Investment Policy Service Our Investment Policy Service is designed to assist you in creating a written investment policy statement (“IPS”) to document the plan’s investment goals and objectives as well as certain policies governing the investment of assets. The IPS also identifies an investment strategy that seeks to attain the plan’s goals. The service is generally designed for corporate retirement plans that are managed on a non-discretionary basis. We will assist the Investment Committee with the establishment, execution, and interpretation of the Investment Policy Statement. The Investment Policy Statement serves as a guide to assist the Investment Committee in effectively supervising, monitoring, and evaluating the investment of the plan’s assets. We will prepare a draft of the IPS based upon information furnished by you and your firm designed to profile various factors for the account such as investment objectives, risk tolerances, projected cash flow, and demographics of your retirement plan participants. It is the client’s responsibility to provide all necessary information for the preparation of the IPS, particularly any limitations imposed by law or otherwise. This draft IPS is then submitted to you for review and approval. We recommend that your professional advisors, such as an attorney, actuary, and/or accountant, also review the IPS. The review and acceptance of the IPS is the responsibility of the plan fiduciary and your retirement program’s governing entity. Upon client’s final approval, the IPS is ready to be sent to client’s Investment Committee. It is client’s responsibility to confirm the Investment Committee’s acceptance of the IPS, and it is the Investment Committee’s responsibility to adhere to the IPS in managing the retirement program. We encourage you to review accounts periodically to verify investment committee’s compliance with the IPS. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 7 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  The Investment Policy Statement will be reviewed at least annually to determine whether stated investment objectives are still relevant and the continued feasibility of achieving those objectives. However, the Investment Policy Statement is not expected to vary much from year to year and the IPS will not be updated to account for short term changes in market conditions or the economic environment. Investment Selection, Monitoring, and Replacement We will conduct research to determine allocations and to project potential ranges of returns and market values over various time periods and using various cash flows. As the financial advisor to the Plan, we will assist the Investment Committee in selecting the non-managed investment line up including evaluating investment managers and mutual fund companies, individual mutual funds, and money market funds which may be retained or replaced. The data used to select the investment options is based on estimated, forward-looking performance of various asset classes and subclasses to create forward looking capital markets assumptions (e.g., expected return, expected standard deviation, correlation, etc.). Past performance and the return estimates of the asset classes and the indices that correspond to these asset classes may not be representative of actual future performance. Actual results could differ, based on various factors including the expenses associated with the management of the portfolio, the portfolio’s securities versus the securities comprising the various indices and general market conditions. Before a specific investment is selected, other factors such as economic trends, which may influence the choice of investments and risk tolerance, should be considered. We have the responsibility and authority to recommend the investment line up including evaluating investment managers and mutual fund companies, individual mutual funds, and money market funds which may be retained or replaced. The plan sponsor has the responsibility and authority to make the final decision regarding what investments to include in the model portfolio and when to add or exclude a specific security. It is client’s responsibility to select the final mix and to determine whether to implement any strategy. We also encourage you to consult with your other professional advisors since Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists does not provide tax or legal advice that may affect asset classes or allocations used in the modeling. We will apply guidelines you supply, as directed; however, compliance with these restrictions or guidelines is client’s responsibility. We will also monitor the current non-managed investment line up including the investment’s performance, performance compared to an applicable benchmark index, fees, management changes, style and fundamental investment strategy changes, and fund composition to determine if an investment no longer meets the criterion defined in the Investment Policy Statement. If the Investment Committee determines that a fund no longer meets the IPS criterion, we will advise the Investment Committee on possible alternatives and assist in the selection of a replacement investment. If you decide to implement any of the firm’s recommendations, we will help you open a custodial account(s) for the plan. The funds in this account will generally be held in a separate account, in the plan’s name, at an independent custodian, not with us. We use Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. as our custodian. The identity of your custodian will be communicated to you before the account is opened. The custodian Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 8 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  will affect transactions, deliver securities, make payments, etc. You will at all times maintain full and complete ownership rights to all assets held in the account for the benefit of the plan participants. We are available during normal business hours either by telephone, fax, email, or in person by appointment to answer your questions. Participant Meetings We will conduct plan participant meetings when a change is made either to the structure of the plan or if the investment lineup changes. We will detail the changes being made, how it affects the current participants, review the current investment opportunities, how participants may make changes to their investment selections, and will answer any and all questions a participant may have. We will review with the participants how to select the investments. Reporting We will send a quarterly performance report detailing the overall performance of the plan’s assets and a detailed list of the investment holdings. Sub-advisory Services There may be instances in which we will enter into an agreement with a sub-advisor who will provide 3(38) services to the Plan. In those instances, in which we have entered into an agreement with a subadvisor to provide 3(38) fiduciary services, we will monitor the performance of the subadvisor and the products made available to the Plan. We will also make recommendations to change the subadvisor or products made available to the plan, if necessary. Your Retirement Plan Consulting Agreement will further describe the 3(38) services that will be provided by Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists. ERISA Fiduciary Discretionary 3(38) Fiduciary Services When a client engages the Adviser to perform “3(38) Fiduciary Services”, the Adviser acts as an “investment manager” (as defined in Section 3(38) of ERISA) with respect to the performance of discretionary fiduciary investment services. Under this arrangement the Adviser is appointed by the Plan Sponsor or trustee and accepts discretion over plan assets and assumes full responsibility and liability for fiduciary functions concerning decisions related to the plan assets. Under this arrangement the Adviser is appointed by the plan sponsor or trustee and accepts discretion over plan assets and assumes full responsibility and liability for fiduciary functions concerning decisions related to the plan assets. The Adviser will review the investment options available to the Plan through documents provided by the Plan Sponsor and notifies the Plan’s record-keeper and/or the Plan Sponsor the Adviser’s instructions to add, remove and/or replace these specific investment options offered to Plan participants and/or used for administrative purposes under the Plan, according to the criteria set forth in guidelines selected by the Plan Sponsor. The Plan Sponsor retains all authority, responsibility and decision-making for investment options not available on the Plan record-keeper’s platform (i.e., “non- core” investment options, such as employer stock, plan loans, self-directed brokerage accounts, frozen guaranteed investment contracts, and life insurance). Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 9 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  The Adviser will retain final decision-making authority with respect to removing and/or replacing investments in the core lineup. The Plan Sponsor will not have responsibility to communicate instructions to any third‐party, custodian and/or third‐party administrator. The data used to determine the investment options is based on estimated, forward-looking performance of various asset classes and subclasses to create our forward-looking capital markets assumptions (e.g., expected return, expected standard deviation, correlation, etc.). Past performance and the return estimates of the asset classes and the indexes that correspond to these asset classes may not be representative of actual future performance. Actual results could differ, based on various factors including the expenses associated with the management of the portfolio, the portfolio’s securities versus the securities comprising the various indexes and general market conditions. Before a specific investment is selected, other factors such as economic trends, which may influence the choice of investments and risk tolerance, should be considered. The Adviser has the responsibility and authority to determine the investment line up including evaluating investment managers and mutual fund companies, individual mutual funds, and money market funds which may be retained or replaced. The Adviser will also monitor the current managed investment line up including the investment’s performance compared to an applicable benchmark. If the Adviser determines that a fund no longer meets the criteria, they will select alternatives and replace them. Wrap Fee The Adviser does not sponsor or participate in a third-party sponsored wrap fee program.

We also require IARs to disclose to clients that they may purchase recommended products from other representatives not affiliated with us. Our Code of Ethics requires our IARs do what is in the client’s best interests at all times. Our CCO monitors all transactions to ensure that representatives put their clients first, not any addition income they may receive.

While our IARs endeavor at all times to put the interest of our clients first as part of our fiduciary duty, the possibility of receiving additional compensation creates a conflict of interest and may affect their judgment when making recommendations. We require that all IARs disclose this conflict of interest when such recommendations are made. Also, we require IARs to disclose that Clients may purchase recommended insurance products from other insurance agents not affiliated with us. Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management We do not charge any performance-based fees.

We also serve individuals with IRA rollover accounts. The Firm requires a minimum dollar value of assets under management in the amount of $50,000 for individual accounts and $1,000,000 for ERISA qualified retirement plans. Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Methods of Analysis The Firm’s primary sources of financial information are financial newspapers, magazines, research materials prepared by others, corporate rating services, annual reports, and company press releases: Fundamental Analysis Fundamental analysis is a technique that attempts to determine a security’s value by focusing on the underlying factors that affect a company's actual business and its future prospects. Fundamental analysis Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 13 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  is about using real data to evaluate a security's value. It refers to the analysis of the economic well-being of a financial entity as opposed to only its price movements. The end goal of performing fundamental analysis is to produce a value that we can compare with the security's current price, with the aim of figuring out what sort of position to take with that security (underpriced = buy, overpriced = sell or short). Technical Analysis Technical Analysis is a technique that attempts to determine a security’s value by developing models and trading rules based upon price and volume transformation. Technical analysis assumes that a market’s price reflects all relevant information, so the analysis focuses on the history of a security’s trading behavior rather than external drivers such as economic, fundamental and news events. The practice of technical analysis incorporates the importance of understanding how market participants perceive and act upon relevant information rather than focusing on the information itself. Ultimately, technical analysts develop trading models and rules by evaluating factors such as market trends, market participant behaviors, supply and demand and pricing patterns and correlations. As with other types of analysis, the predictive nature of technical analysis can vary greatly; models and rules are often modified and updated as new patterns and behaviors develop. Past performance is not an indicator of future return. Cyclical Analysis While we do not attempt to time the market, we may use cyclical analysis in conjunction with other strategies to help determine if shifts are required in your investment strategies depending upon long and short-term trends in financial markets and the performance of the overall national and global economy. Charting Analysis Charting analysis is a method utilized to perform analysis and forecasting of the stock market or commodity market prices and trends. Some of the charts that are used for the analysis are bar charts, point-and-finger charts, and candlestick charts. The charts are used to plot factors such as average price movement, highs and lows of prices, open interest, settlement prices and volume trading. As with other types of analysis, the predictive nature of charting analysis can vary greatly; models and rules are often modified and updated as new patterns and behaviors develop. Past performance is not an indicator of future returns. Tactical Asset Allocation Tactical asset allocation is an active management portfolio strategy that shifts the percentage of assets held in various categories to take advantage of market pricing anomalies or strong market sectors. This strategy allows portfolio managers to create extra value by taking advantage of certain situations in the Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 14 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  marketplace. It is a moderately active strategy since managers return to the portfolio's original asset mix once reaching the desired short-term profits. Risk of Loss We cannot guarantee our analysis methods will yield a return. In fact, a loss of principal is always a risk. Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you should be prepared to bear. You need to understand that investment decisions made for your account by us are subject to various market, currency, economic, political, and business risks. The investment decisions we make for you will not always be profitable nor can we guarantee any level of performance. A list of all risks associated with the strategies, products, and methodology we offer are listed below: Bond Fund Risk Bond funds generally have higher risks than money market funds, largely because they typically pursue strategies aimed at producing higher yields of the risks associated with bond funds include: • Call Risk - The possibility that falling interest rates will cause a bond issuer to redeem—or call—its high-yielding bond before the bond's maturity date. • Credit Risk — the possibility that companies or other issuers whose bonds are owned by the fund may fail to pay their debts (including the debt owed to holders of their bonds). Credit risk is less of a factor for bond funds that invest in insured bonds or U.S. Treasury bonds. By contrast, those that invest in the bonds of companies with poor credit ratings generally will be subject to higher risk. • Interest Rate Risk — the risk that the market value of the bonds will go down when interest rates go up. Because of this, you can lose money in any bond fund, including those that invest only in insured bonds or Treasury bonds. • Prepayment Risk — the chance that a bond will be paid off early. For example, if interest rates fall, a bond issuer may decide to pay off (or "retire") its debt and issue new bonds that pay a lower rate. When this happens, the fund may not be able to reinvest the proceeds in an investment with as high a return or yield. Fundamental Analysis Risk Fundamental analysis, when used in isolation, has a number of risks: • There are an infinite number of factors that can affect the earnings of a company, and its stock price, over time. These can include economic, political, and social factors, in addition to the various company statistics. • The data used may be out of date. • It is difficult to give appropriate weightings to the factors. • It assumes that the analyst is competent. • It ignores the influence of random events such as oil spills, product defects being exposed, and acts of God and so on.

However, with every financial investment strategy there is a risk of a loss of principal. Not every investment decision will be profitable, and there can be no guarantee of any level of performance. Cyclical Analysis Risk Looking at market cycles in conjunction with other investment strategies can be useful when making investment decisions. However, market cycles are not always predictable. Each financial investment strategy has benefits and risks. Not every investment decision will be profitable, and there can be no guarantee of any level of performance. Exchange Traded Fund (“ETF”) Risk Most ETFs are passively managed investment companies whose shares are purchased and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF represents a portfolio of securities designed to track a particular market segment or index. ETFs are subject to the following risks that do not apply to conventional funds: • The market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their net asset value; • An active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained; and • There is no assurance that the requirements of the exchange necessary to maintain the listing of an ETF will continue to be met or remain unchanged. Insurance Product Risk The rate of return on variable insurance products is not stable, but varies with the stock, bond, and money market subaccounts that you choose as investment options. There is no guarantee that you will earn any return on your investment and there is a risk that you will lose money. Before you consider purchasing a variable product, make sure you fully understand all of its terms. Carefully read the prospectus. Some of the major risks include: • Liquidity and Early Withdrawal Risk – There may be a surrender charges for withdrawals within a specified period, which can be as long as six to eight years. Any withdrawals before a client reaches the age of 59 ½ are generally subject to a 10 percent income tax penalty in addition to any gain being taxed as ordinary income. • Sales and Surrender Charges – Asset-based sales charges or surrender charges. These charges normally decline and eventually are eliminated the longer you hold your shares. For example, a surrender charge could start at 7 percent in the first year and decline by 1 percent per year until it reaches zero. • Fees and Expenses – There are a variety of fees and expenses which can reach 2% and more such as: o Mortality and expense risk charges o Administrative fees Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 16 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  o Underlying fund expenses o Charges for any special features or riders. • Bonus Credits – Some products offer bonus credits that can add a specified percentage to the amount invested ranging from 1 percent to 5 percent for each premium payment. Bonus credits, however, are usually not free. In order to fund them, insurance companies typically impose high mortality and expense charges and lengthy surrender charge periods. • Guarantees – Insurance companies provide a number of specific guarantees. For example, they may guarantee a death benefit or an annuity payout option that can provide income for life. These guarantees are only as good as the insurance company that gives them. • Market Risk – The possibility that stock fund or bond fund prices overall will decline over short or even extended periods. Stock and bond markets tend to move in cycles, with periods when prices rise and other periods when prices fall. • Principal Risk – The possibility that an investment will go down in value, or "lose money," from the original or invested amount. Mutual Funds Risk The following is a list of some general risks associated with investing in mutual funds. • Country Risk - The possibility that political events (a war, national elections), financial problems (rising inflation, government default), or natural disasters (an earthquake, a poor harvest) will weaken a country's economy and cause investments in that country to decline. • Currency Risk -The possibility that returns could be reduced for Americans investing in foreign securities because of a rise in the value of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies. Also called exchange-rate risk. • Income Risk - The possibility that a fixed-income fund's dividends will decline as a result of falling overall interest rates. • Industry Risk - The possibility that a group of stocks in a single industry will decline in price due to developments in that industry. • Inflation Risk - The possibility that increases in the cost of living will reduce or eliminate a fund's real inflation-adjusted returns. • Manager Risk -The possibility that an actively managed mutual fund's investment adviser will fail to execute the fund's investment strategy effectively resulting in the failure of stated objectives. • Market Risk -The possibility that stock fund or bond fund prices overall will decline over short or even extended periods. Stock and bond markets tend to move in cycles, with periods when prices rise and other periods when prices fall. • Principal Risk -The possibility that an investment will go down in value, or "lose money," from the original or invested amount. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 17 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Stock Fund Risk Overall "market risk" poses the greatest potential danger for investors in stocks funds. Stock prices can fluctuate for a broad range of reasons, such as the overall strength of the economy or demand for particular products or services. Technical Analysis risk • Technical analysis is derived from the study of market participant behavior and its efficacy is a matter of controversy. • Methods vary greatly and can be highly subjective; different technical analysts can sometimes make contradictory predictions from the same data. • Models and rules can incur sufficiently high transaction costs. Tactical Asset Allocation Risk Tactical Asset Allocation seeks to take advantage of changes in the market by strategically reallocating between asset classes to adapt to changing conditions. However, each financial investment strategy has benefits and risks. Not every investment decision will be profitable. Reallocations, especially those in high-risk sectors, may not always produce beneficial results. There can be no guarantee of any level of performance. Overall Risks Clients need to remember that past performance is no guarantee of future results. All funds carry some level of risk. You may lose some or all of the money you invest, including your principal, because the securities held by a fund goes up and down in value. Dividend or interest payments may also fluctuate, or stop completely, as market conditions change. Before you invest, be sure to read a fund's prospectus and shareholder reports to learn about its investment strategy and the potential risks. Funds with higher rates of return may take risks that are beyond your comfort level and are inconsistent with your financial goals. While past performance does not necessarily predict future returns, it can tell you how volatile (or stable) a fund has been over a period of time. Generally, the more volatile a fund, the higher the investment risk. If you will need your money to meet a financial goal in the near-term, you probably can't afford the risk of investing in a fund with a volatile history because you will not have enough time to ride out any declines in the stock market.

We require that all IARs disclose this conflict of interest when such recommendations are made. Also, we require IARs to disclose that clients may purchase recommended insurance products from other insurance agents not affiliated with us. Dennis Tidmore is the owner of Tidmore Consulting Services, which provides non-securities related financial consulting services in collaboration with other professionals.

We may trade securities in our account that we have recommended to you as long as we place our orders after your orders. This policy is meant to prevent us from benefiting as a result of transactions placed on behalf of advisory accounts. Neither Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists nor any of its related persons recommend securities (or other investment products) to advisory clients in which we or any related person has some other proprietary (ownership) interest, other than those mentioned above. Certain affiliated accounts may trade in the same securities with your accounts on an aggregated basis when consistent with our obligation of best execution. When trades are aggregated, all parties will share the costs in proportion to their investment. We will retain records of the trade Order (specifying each participating account) and its allocation. Completed Orders will be allocated as specified in the initial Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 20 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  trade order.

Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 21 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Item 12 – Brokerage Practices Custodians Factors Used to Select Custodians In recommending a custodian/broker-dealer, we look for a company that offers relatively low transaction fees, access to desired securities, trading platforms, and support services. Our clients may use Charles Schwab & Co. (“Schwab”), EdgeCo, MidAtlantic and PCS Retirement (Generally referred to as the “Custodian”) as the qualified custodian for their accounts when utilizing our asset management services. This means that your custodian has discretionary authority over the client’s account(s) in selecting securities and the amounts to be bought or sold. Neither Mr. Tidmore nor any employee of the Firm receives commissions, transaction fees, markups or markdowns, soft dollar benefits, or compensation in any form other than the stated advisory fees. Neither Mr. Tidmore nor any employee of the Firm receives compensation in any form other than the stated advisory fees. Neither Mr. Tidmore nor any employee of the Firm aggregates the purchase or sale of securities for client accounts. Soft Dollars The Custodians may provide us with certain brokerage and research products and services that qualify as "brokerage or research services" under the rules. These research products and/or services will assist the IAR in its investment decision making process. Such research generally will be used to service all of the IAR’s clients, but brokerage commissions paid by the client may be used to pay for research that is not used in managing the client’s account. The account may pay to a broker-dealer a commission greater than another qualified broker-dealer might charge to affect the same transaction where the IAR determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services received. Because soft dollar benefits could be considered to provide a benefit to the adviser that might cause the client to pay more than the lowest available commission without receiving the most benefit, they are considered a conflict of interest in recommending or directing custodial and third-party managerial services. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists mitigates these conflicts of interest through strong oversight of soft-dollar arrangements by the Chief Compliance Officer in order to assure the soft dollar benefits serve the best interests of the client. There may other benefits from recommending American Trust, Mid Atlantic Trust Co, or Schwab, or other third-party managers, such as software and other technology that (i) provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements); (ii) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts; (iii) provide research, pricing and other market data; (iv) facilitate payment of fees from its clients' accounts; and (v) assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 22 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Other services may include, but are not limited to, performance reporting, financial planning, contact management systems, third-party research, publications, access to educational conferences, roundtables and webinars, and practice management resources. Neither Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists nor any of its management persons are registered as a as a futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, a commodity trading advisor, broker-dealer or registered as a representative of a broker-dealer, nor does it have any pending application to register. In addition, neither Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists nor its management persons are affiliated with any broker-dealer. Your Custody and Brokerage Costs For our clients’ accounts it maintains, Schwab generally does not charge you separately for custody services but is compensated by charging you commissions or other fees on trades that it executes or that settle into your Schwab account. This commitment benefits you because the overall as you pay are lower than they would be if we had not made the commitment. In addition to other fees, Schwab charges you a flat dollar amount as a “prime broker” or “trade away” fee for each trade that we have executed by a different broker-dealer but where the securities bought or the funds from the securities sold are deposited (settled) into your Schwab account. These fees are in addition to the commissions or other compensation you pay the executing broker-dealer. Because of this, in order to minimize your trading costs, we have Schwab execute most trades for your account. Products and Services Available to Us from Schwab Schwab Advisor Services (formerly called Schwab Institutional) is Schwab’s business serving independent investment advisory firms like us. They provide us and our clients with access to its institutional brokerage – trading, custody, reporting and related services – many of which are not typically available to Schwab retail customers. Schwab also makes available various support services. Some of those services help us manage or administer our clients’ accounts while others help us manage and grow our business. Schwab’s support services are generally are available on an unsolicited basis (we don’t have to request them) and at no charge to us. Here is a more detailed description of Schwab’s support services: • Services that Benefit You. Schwab’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of client assets. The investment products available through Schwab include some to which we might not otherwise have access or that would require a significantly higher minimum initial investment by our clients. Schwab’s services described in this paragraph generally benefit you and your account. • Services that May Not Directly Benefit You. Schwab also makes available to us other products and services that benefit us but may not directly benefit you or your account. These products and services assist us in managing and administering our clients’ accounts. They include investment research, both Schwab’s own and that of third parties. We may use this research to service all or some substantial number of our clients’ accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab. In addition to investment research, Schwab also makes available software and other technology that: Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 23 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  o provide access to client account data (such as duplicate trade confirmations and account statements); o facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts; o provide pricing and other market data; o facilitate payment of our fees from our clients’ accounts; and o assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. • Services that Generally Benefit Only Us. Schwab also offers other services intended to help us manage and further develop our business enterprise. These services include: o educational conferences and events o technology, compliance, legal, and business consulting; o publications and conferences on practice management and business succession; and o access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants and insurance providers. Schwab may provide some of these services itself. In other cases, it will arrange for third-party vendors to provide the services to us. Schwab may also discount or waive its fees for some of these services or pay all or a part of a third party’s fees. Schwab may also provide us with other benefits such as occasional business entertainment of our personnel. Our Interest in Schwab’s Services The availability of these services from Schwab benefits us because we do not have to produce or purchase them. We believe, however, that our selection of Schwab as custodian and broker is in the best interests of our clients. It is primarily supported by the scope, quality and price of Schwab’s services (based on the factors discussed above) and not Schwab’s services that benefit only us. Best Execution We have an obligation to seek best execution for you. In seeking best execution, the determinative factor is not the lowest possible commission cost but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution, taking into consideration the full range of a broker-dealer’s services, including the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates, reputation, and responsiveness. Therefore, we will seek competitive commission rates, but we may not obtain the lowest possible commission rates for account transactions. Brokerage for Client Referrals In selecting and/or recommending custodians, we do not take into consideration whether or not we will receive client referrals from the custodians or third-party. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 24 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Directed Brokerage We do not permit directed brokerage. Trading Transactions for each client account generally will be affected independently unless we decide to purchase or sell the same securities for several clients at approximately the same time. We may (but are not obligated to) combine or “batch” such Orders to obtain best execution, to negotiate more favorable commission rates or to allocate equitably among our clients’ differences in prices and commission or other transaction costs. Under this procedure, transactions will be price-averaged and allocated among our clients in proportion to the purchase and sale orders placed for each client account on any given day. ERISA 3(38) As it relates to ERISA Plan business, the Adviser’s model does not involve transactional business and, consequently, the Adviser does not currently engage brokers in any transactional capacity. Item 13 – Review of Accounts Reviews Discretionary Portfolio Services The Firm reviews accounts no less frequently than quarterly. The Firm sends written, quarterly reports to its clients via U.S. Mail and/or electronic mail. The Firm schedules personal meetings with its clients at least annually.

Prior to paying such referral fees, we will ensure compliance with all local and federal securities regulation prior to paying such compensation. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 25 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Item 15 – Custody We do not have physical custody of any accounts or assets. However, we may be deemed to have custody of your account(s) if we have the ability to deduct your advisory fees from the custodian. You should receive at least quarterly statements from the custodian that holds and maintains your investment assets. We urge you to carefully review such statements. We do not debit the client fees directly from your advisory account. We send information to your custodian to debit your fees and to pay them to us. You authorized the custodian to pay us directly at the onset of the relationship. ERISA 3(38) If authorized by the Plan Sponsor and allowed access by the custodian, the Adviser has the ability to debit fees directly from the Plan Sponsor’s bank account through the submission of a billing file to the plan custodian, however, the Adviser does not have authority to possess or take actual custody of clients’ funds or securities. Plan Sponsors and plan participants should receive at least quarterly statements from the recordkeeper. Plan Sponsors and participants should carefully review such statements. Item 16 – Investment Discretion If you provide discretion authority, which will be evidenced via the written, discretionary agreement between the client and the Adviser, we will have the authority to determine the following without your consent: Securities to be bought or sold for your account and the amount of securities to be bought or sold for your account. In all cases this discretion is exercised in a manner consistent with your stated investment objectives for your account. When active asset management services are provided on a discretionary basis the client will enter into a separate custodial agreement with the custodian. The custodian agreement will include a limited power of attorney to trade in the client’s account(s) which authorizes the custodian to take instructions from us regarding all investment decisions for your account. ERISA 3(38) In performing discretionary management services, the Adviser is acting as an “investment manager” (as that term is defined in Section 3(38) of ERISA) and as a fiduciary to the Plan and shall act with the care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting in a capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of like character and with like aims. Tidmore Retirement Planning Specialists ADV Part 2A February 2026 Page 26 of 30 © 2010 – 2026 Red Oak Compliance Solutions LLC  Item 17 – Voting Client Securities As a matter of firm policy and practice, we do not have any authority to and do not vote proxies on behalf of advisory clients. You retain the responsibility for receiving and voting proxies for any and all securities maintained in your portfolios. The custodian will forward you copies of all proxies and shareholder communications relating to your account assets. Item 18 – Financial Information We are required to provide you with certain financial information or disclosures about our financial condition. We have no financial commitment that would impair our ability to meet any contractual and fiduciary commitments to you, our client. We have not been the subject of any bankruptcy proceedings. In no event shall we charge advisory fees that are both in excess of five hundred dollars and more than six months in advance of advisory services rendered.
