Item 4: Advisory Business
Firm Description
Wealth Advisors Group, LLC (“Wealth Advisors Group”) was founded in 2017. Jason
Dumont is 100% owner and Chief Compliance Officer.
Wealth Advisors Group is a fee-based investment management firm. Wealth Advisors
Group does not sell annuities or insurance products, but the Managing Members offer
insurance as sole proprietors.
Wealth Advisors Group does not act as a custodian of Client assets.
An evaluation of each Client's initial situation is provided to the Client, often in the form of
a net worth statement, risk analysis or similar document. Periodic reviews are also
communicated to provide reminders of the specific courses of action that need to be taken.
More frequent reviews occur but are not necessarily communicated to the Client unless
immediate changes are recommended.
Other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, tax preparers, insurance agents, etc.) are
engaged directly by the Client on an as-needed basis and may charge fees of their own.
Conflicts of interest will be disclosed to the Client in the event they should occur.
Types of Advisory Services
ASSET MANAGEMENT
Wealth Advisors Group offers discretionary and non-discretionary asset management
services to advisory Clients. Wealth Advisors Group will offer Clients ongoing asset
management services through determining individual investment goals, time horizons,
objectives, and risk tolerance. Investment strategies, investment selection, asset allocation,
portfolio monitoring and the overall investment program will be based on the above
factors. The Client will authorize Wealth Advisors Group discretionary authority to execute
selected investment program transactions as stated within the Investment Advisory
Agreement.
Discretionary
When the Client provides Wealth Advisors Group discretionary authority the Client will
sign a limited trading authorization or equivalent. Wealth Advisors Group will have the
authority to execute transactions in the account without seeking Client approval on
each transaction.
Non-discretionary
When the Client elects to use Wealth Advisors Group on a non-discretionary basis,
Wealth Advisors Group will determine the securities to be bought or sold and the
amount of the securities to be bought or sold. However, Wealth Advisors Group will
obtain prior Client approval on each and every transaction before executing any
transaction.
Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
The goals and objectives for each Client are documented in our Client files. Investment
strategies are created that reflect the stated goals and objectives. Clients may impose
restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities.
- 1 -
Agreements may not be assigned without written Client consent.
Wrap Fee Programs
Wealth Advisors Group does not sponsor any wrap fee programs.
Client Assets under Management
As of December 2024, the firm had $ 215,907,000.00 in assets under management on a
discretionary basis and $ 0.00 in assets under management on a non-discretionary basis.
Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Method of Compensation and Fee Schedule
ASSET MANAGEMENT
Wealth Advisors Group offers direct asset management services to advisory Clients. Wealth
Advisors Group charges an annual investment advisory fee based on the total assets under
management as follows:
Assets Under Management
Up to $499,999
$500,000 to $999,999
$1,000,00 to $1,499,999
Over $1,500,000
Annual Fee
1.0%
0.9%
0.8%
0.7%
Quarterly Fee
.250%
.225%
.200%
.175%
This is a tiered or breakpoint fee schedule, the entire portfolio is charged the same asset
management fee. For example, a Client with $750,000 under management would pay
$6,750 on an annual basis. $750,000 x 0.9% = $6,750.
The annual fee may be negotiable based upon certain criteria (e.g., historical relationship,
type of assets, anticipated future earning capacity, anticipated future additional assets,
dollar amounts of assets to be managed, related accounts, account composition,
negotiations with Clients, etc.).
Fees are billed quarterly in arrears based on the amount of assets managed as of the close
of business on the last business day of the previous quarter. Lower fees for comparable
services may be available from other sources. Clients may terminate their account within
five (5) business days of signing the Investment Advisory Agreement with no obligation
and without penalty. Clients may terminate advisory services with thirty (30) days written
notice. For accounts opened or closed mid-billing period, any unpaid earned fees will be
due to Wealth Advisors Group. Client shall be given thirty (30) days prior written notice of
any increase in fees. Any increase in fees will be acknowledged in writing by both parties
before any increase in said fees occurs.
Client Payment of Fees
Investment management fees are billed quarterly in arrears, meaning that we invoice you
after the billing period. Fees are usually deducted from a designated Client account to
facilitate billing. The Client must consent in advance to direct debiting of their investment
account.
Wealth Advisors Group, in its sole discretion, may charge a lesser investment advisory fee
based upon certain criteria (e.g., historical relationship, type of assets, anticipated future
- 2 -
earning capacity, anticipated future additional assets, dollar amounts of assets to be
managed, related accounts, account composition, negotiations with Clients, etc.).
Additional Client Fees Charged
Custodians may charge transaction fees on purchases or sales of certain mutual funds,
equities, and exchange-traded funds. These charges may include mutual fund transaction
fees, postage and handling and miscellaneous fees.
For more details on the brokerage practices, see Item 12 of this brochure.
Prepayment of Client Fees
Wealth Advisors Group does not require any prepayment of fees of more than $1200 per
Client and six months or more in advance.
External Compensation for the Sale of Securities to Clients
Mr. Dumont receive external compensation for the sale of securities to clients as a
registered representative of Private Client Services, a broker-dealer. Less than 10% of his
time is spent in this practice as a registered representative. He will offer clients products
from this activity.
This represents a conflict of interest because it gives an incentive to recommend products
based on the commission received. As a registered representative, Mr. Dumont does not
charge advisory fees for the services offered through Private Client Services. This conflict is
mitigated by disclosures, procedures, and the firm’s fiduciary obligation to place the best
interest of the Client first and Clients are not required to purchase any products or services.
Clients have the option to purchase these products through another registered
representative of their choosing.
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management
Sharing of Capital Gains
Fees are not based on a share of the capital gains or capital appreciation of managed
securities.
Wealth Advisors Group does not use a performance-based fee structure because of the
conflict of interest. Performance based compensation may create an incentive for Wealth
Advisors Group to recommend an investment that may carry a higher degree of risk to the
Client.
Item 7: Types of Clients
Description
Wealth Advisors Group generally provides investment advice to individuals and high net
worth individuals. Client relationships vary in scope and length of service.
Account Minimums
Wealth Advisors Group does not require a minimum to open an account.

Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
Security analysis methods may include technical and charting analysis. Investing in
securities involves risk of loss that Clients should be prepared to bear. Past performance is
not a guarantee of future returns.
Technical analysis attempts to predict a future stock price or direction based on market
trends. The assumption is that the market follows discernible patterns and if these patterns
can be identified then a prediction can be made. The risk is that markets do not always
follow patterns and relying solely on this method may not take into account new patterns
that emerge over time.
Charting analysis strategy involves using and comparing various charts to predict long and
short term performance or market trends. The risk involved in using this method is that
only past performance data is considered without using other methods to crosscheck data.
Using charting analysis without other methods of analysis would be making the
assumption that past performance will be indicative of future performance. This may not
be the case.
The main sources of information include financial newspapers and magazines, annual
reports, prospectuses, and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Investment Strategy
The investment strategy for a specific Client is based upon the objectives stated by the
Client during consultations. The Client may change these objectives at any time by
providing written notice to Wealth Advisors Group. Each Client executes a Client profile
form or similar form that documents their objectives and their desired investment strategy.
Other strategies may include long-term purchases and trading.
Security Specific Material Risks
All investment programs have certain risks that are borne by the investor. Our investment
approach constantly keeps the risk of loss in mind. Investors face the following investment
risks and should discuss these risks with Wealth Advisors Group:
• Market Risk: The prices of securities held by mutual funds in which Clients invest
may decline in response to certain events taking place around the world,
including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by
a fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local,
regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency, interest
rate and commodity price fluctuations. Investors should have a long-term
perspective and be able to tolerate potentially sharp declines in market value.
•
Interest-rate Risk: Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment prices to
fluctuate. For example, when interest rates rise, yields on existing bonds become
less attractive, causing their market values to decline.
•
Inflation Risk: When any type of inflation is present, a dollar today will buy more
than a dollar next year, because purchasing power is eroding at the rate of
inflation.
- 4 -
• Currency Risk: Overseas investments are subject to fluctuations in the value of
the dollar against the currency of the investment’s originating country. This is
also referred to as exchange rate risk.
• Reinvestment Risk: This is the risk that future proceeds from investments may
have to be reinvested at a potentially lower rate of return (i.e. interest rate). This
primarily relates to fixed income securities.
• Liquidity Risk: Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash.
Generally, assets are more liquid if many traders are interested in a standardized
product. For example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate
properties are not.
• Management Risk: The advisor’s investment approach may fail to produce the
intended results. If the advisor’s assumptions regarding the performance of a
specific asset class or fund are not realized in the expected time frame, the
overall performance of the Client’s portfolio may suffer.
• Equity Risk: Equity securities tend to be more volatile than other investment
choices. The value of an individual mutual fund or ETF can be more volatile than
the market as a whole. This volatility affects the value of the Client’s overall
portfolio. Small and mid-cap companies are subject to additional risks. Smaller
companies may experience greater volatility, higher failure rates, more limited
markets, product lines, financial resources, and less management experience
than larger companies. Smaller companies may also have a lower trading
volume, which may disproportionately affect their market price, tending to make
them fall more in response to selling pressure than is the case with larger
companies.
• Fixed Income Risk: The issuer of a fixed income security may not be able to make
interest and principal payments when due. Generally, the lower the credit rating
of a security, the greater the risk that the issuer will default on its obligation. If a
rating agency gives a debt security a lower rating, the value of the debt security
will decline because investors will demand a higher rate of return. As nominal
interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by a fund is likely to
decrease. A nominal interest rate is the sum of a real interest rate and an
expected inflation rate.
•
Investment Companies Risk: When a Client invests in open end mutual funds or
ETFs, the Client indirectly bears their proportionate share of any fees and
expenses payable directly by those funds. Therefore, the Client will incur higher
expenses, which may be duplicative. In addition, the Client’s overall portfolio
may be affected by losses of an underlying fund and the level of risk arising from
the investment practices of an underlying fund (such as the use of derivatives).
ETFs are also subject to the following risks: (i) an ETF’s shares may trade at a
market price that is above or below their net asset value or (ii) trading of an
ETF’s shares may be halted if the listing exchange’s officials deem such action
appropriate, the shares are de-listed from the exchange, or the activation of
market-wide “circuit breakers” (which are tied to large decreases in stock
- 5 -
prices) halts stock trading generally. Adviser has no control over the risks taken
by the underlying funds in which Client invests.
• Foreign Securities Risk: Funds in which Clients invest may invest in foreign
securities. Foreign securities are subject to additional risks not typically
associated with investments in domestic securities. These risks may include,
among others, currency risk, country risks (political, diplomatic, regional
conflicts, terrorism, war, social and economic instability, currency devaluations
and policies that have the effect of limiting or restricting foreign investment or
the movement of assets), different trading practices,
less government
supervision, less publicly available information, limited trading markets and
greater volatility. To the extent that underlying funds invest in issuers located in
emerging markets, the risk may be heightened by political changes, changes in
taxation, or currency controls that could adversely affect the values of these
investments. Emerging markets have been more volatile than the markets of
developed countries with more mature economies.
• Long-term purchases: Long-term investments are those vehicles purchased with
the intension of being held for more than one year. Typically the expectation of
the investment is to increase in value so that it can eventually be sold for a profit.
In addition, there may be an expectation for the investment to provide income.
One of the biggest risks associated with long-term investments is volatility, the
fluctuations in the financial markets that can cause investments to lose value.
• Trading risk: Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is
no assurance that the investment objective of any fund or investment will be
achieved.

Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
and Personal Trading
Code of Ethics Description
include employees and/or
The affiliated persons (affiliated persons
independent
contractors) of Wealth Advisors Group have committed to a Code of Ethics (“Code”). The
purpose of our Code is to set forth standards of conduct expected of Wealth Advisors Group
affiliated persons and addresses conflicts that may arise. The Code defines acceptable
behavior for affiliated persons of Wealth Advisors Group. The Code reflects Wealth
Advisors Group and its supervised persons’ responsibility to act in the best interest of their
Client.
One area which the Code addresses is when affiliated persons buy or sell securities for
their personal accounts and how to mitigate any conflict of interest with our Clients. We do
not allow any affiliated persons to use non-public material information for their personal
profit or to use internal research for their personal benefit in conflict with the benefit to
our Clients.
Wealth Advisors Group’s policy prohibits any person from acting upon or otherwise
misusing non-public or inside information. No advisory representative or other employee,
officer or director of Wealth Advisors Group may recommend any transaction in a security
or its derivative to advisory Clients or engage in personal securities transactions for a
security or its derivatives if the advisory representative possesses material, non-public
information regarding the security.
Wealth Advisors Group’s Code is based on the guiding principle that the interests of the
Client are our top priority. Wealth Advisors Group’s officers, directors, advisors, and other
affiliated persons have a fiduciary duty to our Clients and must diligently perform that duty
- 7 -
to maintain the complete trust and confidence of our Clients. When a conflict arises, it is
our obligation to put the Client’s interests over the interests of either affiliated persons or
the company.
The Code applies to “access” persons. “Access” persons are affiliated persons who have
access to non-public information regarding any Clients' purchase or sale of securities, or
non-public information regarding the portfolio holdings of any reportable fund, who are
involved in making securities recommendations to Clients, or who have access to such
recommendations that are non-public.
Wealth Advisors Group will provide a copy of the Code of Ethics to any Client or
prospective Client upon request.
Investment Recommendations Involving a Material Financial Interest and Conflict of
Interest
Wealth Advisors Group and its affiliated persons do not recommend to Clients securities in
which we have a material financial interest.
Advisory Firm Purchase of Same Securities Recommended to Clients and Conflicts of
Interest
Wealth Advisors Group and its affiliated persons may buy or sell securities that are also
held by Clients. In order to mitigate conflicts of interest such as trading ahead of Client
transactions, affiliated persons are required to disclose all reportable securities
transactions as well as provide Wealth Advisors Group with copies of their brokerage
statements.
The Chief Compliance Officer of Wealth Advisors Group is Jason Dumont. He reviews all
trades of the affiliated persons each quarter. The personal trading reviews ensure that the
personal trading of affiliated persons does not affect the markets and that Clients of the
firm receive preferential treatment over associated persons’ transactions.
Client Securities Recommendations or Trades and Concurrent Advisory Firm
Securities Transactions and Conflicts of Interest
Wealth Advisors Group does not maintain a firm proprietary trading account and does not
have a material financial interest in any securities being recommended and therefore no
conflicts of interest exist. However, affiliated persons may buy or sell securities at the same
time they buy or sell securities for Clients. In order to mitigate conflicts of interest such as
front running, affiliated persons are required to disclose all reportable securities
transactions as well as provide Wealth Advisors Group with copies of their brokerage
statements.
The Chief Compliance Officer of Wealth Advisors Group is Jason Dumont. He reviews all
trades of the affiliated persons each quarter. The personal trading reviews ensure that the

Item 12: Brokerage Practices
Factors Used to Select Broker-Dealers for Client Transactions
Wealth Advisors Group may recommend the use of a particular broker-dealer or may
utilize a broker-dealer of the Client's choosing. Wealth Advisors Group will select
appropriate brokers based on a number of factors including but not limited to their
relatively low transaction fees and reporting ability. Wealth Advisors Group relies on its
broker to provide its execution services at the best prices available. Lower fees for
comparable services may be available from other sources. Clients pay for any and all
custodial fees in addition to the advisory fee charged by Wealth Advisors Group.
• Directed Brokerage
Wealth Advisors Group does not allow directed brokerage accounts.
• Best Execution
Investment advisors who manage or supervise Client portfolios have a fiduciary
obligation of best execution. The determination of what may constitute best
execution and price in the execution of a securities transaction by a broker involves
a number of considerations and is subjective. Factors affecting brokerage selection
include the overall direct net economic result to the portfolios, the efficiency with
which the transaction is effected, the ability to effect the transaction where a large
block is involved, the operational facilities of the broker-dealer, the value of an
ongoing relationship with such broker and the financial strength and stability of the
broker. The firm does not receive any portion of the trading fees.
• Soft Dollar Arrangements
Wealth Advisors Group does not receive soft dollar benefits.
Aggregating Securities Transactions for Client Accounts
Wealth Advisors Group is authorized in its discretion to aggregate purchases and sales and
other transactions made for the account with purchases and sales and transactions in the
same securities for other Clients of Wealth Advisors Group. All Clients participating in the
aggregated order shall receive an average share price with all other transaction costs
shared on a pro-rated basis.
Item 13: Review of Accounts
Schedule for Periodic Review of Client Accounts or Financial Plans and Advisory
Persons Involved
Account reviews are performed quarterly by the Chief Compliance Officer of Wealth
Advisors Group. Account reviews are performed more frequently when market conditions
dictate.
Review of Client Accounts on Non-Periodic Basis
Other conditions that may trigger a review of Clients’ accounts are changes in the tax laws,
new investment information, and changes in a Client's own situation.
Content of Client Provided Reports and Frequency
Clients receive written account statements no less than quarterly for managed accounts.
Account statements are issued by Wealth Advisors Group’s custodian. Client receives
- 9 -
confirmations of each transaction in account from Custodian and an additional statement
during any month in which a transaction occurs.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Economic Benefits Provided to the Advisory Firm from External Sources and Conflicts
of Interest
Mr. Dumont receives external compensation for the sale of securities to clients as
registered representatives of Private Client Services, a broker-dealer.
Advisory Firm Payments for Client Referrals
Wealth Advisors Group does not compensate for Client referrals.
Item 15: Custody
Account Statements
All assets are held at qualified custodians, which means the custodians provide account
statements directly to Clients at their address of record at least quarterly. Clients are urged
to compare the account statements received directly from their custodians to any
documentation or reports prepared by Wealth Advisors Group.
Wealth Advisors Group is deemed to have constructive custody solely because advisory
fees are directly deducted from Client’s accounts by the custodian on behalf of Wealth
Advisors Group.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
Discretionary Authority for Trading
Wealth Advisors Group may require discretionary authority to manage securities accounts
on behalf of Clients. Wealth Advisors Group has the authority to determine, without
obtaining specific Client consent, the securities to be bought or sold, and the amount of the
securities to be bought or sold. The client will authorize Wealth Advisors Group
discretionary authority to execute selected investment program transactions as stated
within the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Wealth Advisors Group allows Client’s to place certain restrictions, as outlined in the
Client’s Investment Policy Statement or similar document. Such restrictions could include
only allowing purchases of socially conscious investments. These restrictions must be
provided to Wealth Advisors Group in writing.
The Client approves the custodian to be used and the commission rates paid to the
custodian. Wealth Advisors Group does not receive any portion of the transaction fees or
commissions paid by the Client to the custodian.
- 10 -
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
Proxy Votes
Wealth Advisors Group does not vote proxies on securities. Clients are expected to vote
their own proxies. The Client will receive their proxies directly from the custodian of their
account or from a transfer agent.
When assistance on voting proxies is requested, Wealth Advisors Group will provide
recommendations to the Client. If a conflict of interest exists, it will be disclosed to the
Client.
Item 18: Financial Information
Balance Sheet
A balance sheet is not required to be provided because Wealth Advisors Group does not
serve as a custodian for Client funds or securities and Wealth Advisors Group does not
require prepayment of fees of more than $1,200 per Client and six months or more in
advance.
Financial Conditions Reasonably Likely to Impair Advisory Firm’s Ability to Meet
Commitments to Clients
Wealth Advisors Group has no condition that is reasonably likely to impair our ability to
meet contractual commitments to our Clients.
Bankruptcy Petitions during the Past Ten Years
Neither Wealth Advisors Group nor its management has had any bankruptcy petitions in
the last ten years.
