SERVICES, FEES AND COMPENSATION (Item 4)
For all wealth management clients, Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
(hereinafter, “Davis, Davis and Conover,” “Firm,” “Our,” “Us” or “We”) will recommend an
investment program (“Wrap Fee Program”) in which the client pays a single fee for asset
management services and the transactions entered in their accounts (“Wrap Fee”). Fees included
in the Wrap Fee include transaction fees for the purchase or sale of securities, but do not include
expenses related to the use of margin, wire transfer fees, the fees charged to shareholders of
mutual funds or ETFs, mark-ups and mark-downs, spreads, odd-lot differentials, fees charged
by regulatory agencies, and any transaction fees for securities trades executed by a broker-
dealer other than Raymond James.
Because of the nature of a Wrap Program, the Wrap Program client may pay more or less than if
the client had compensated Davis, Davis and Conover outside of the Wrap Fee Program. For
example, if a client’s account is rarely traded, the transaction fees the client would have paid
would be minimal, thus limiting the benefits of “wrapping” management fees and transaction
fees.
Davis, Davis and Conover receives the Wrap Fee for Our services. We pay transaction fees to
various broker-dealers, mutual funds and ETFs. The remainder of the Wrap Fee is the net
management fee payable to Davis, Davis and Conover. The amount payable to Us varies
depending upon the amount of trading in a client's account. The more transactions in the
account, the greater the amount of transaction fees, and therefore the less compensation to Us.
Accordingly, We have a financial incentive to avoid trading the account. This creates a conflict of
interest between the Firm and its Wrap Program clients. We attempt to mitigate this conflict by
requiring that the Firm’s employees acknowledge their fiduciary duty to place client interests
ahead of their own and through review of client accounts.
Davis, Davis and Conover will receive no additional compensation for offering the Wrap Program.
Wealth Management
Wealth management services are provided on a discretionary basis. Clients engaging Us on a
discretionary basis will be asked to grant such authority upon signing Our Investment Advisory
Agreement. Members of Our investment team will meet with you to develop an understanding
of your financial objectives and goals. We will also discuss concepts related to risk, as well as your
ability and willingness to take on risk in your overall investment portfolio. We will ask you
questions designed to determine your investment horizon, risk profile, financial goals, income
and other various items We deem necessary.
4 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
After We meet with you, We will develop a portfolio customized to your specific needs as We
understand them based on Our discussions with you and review of the client questionnaire. This
portfolio may be comprised of a mix of domestic and foreign equities, fixed income securities,
exchange traded funds and mutual funds.
We will monitor your accounts to ensure that they are meeting your investment objectives and
other requirements. If any changes are needed to your investments, We will make the changes.
These changes may involve selling a security or group of investments and buying others or
keeping the proceeds in cash or some liquid alternative. You may at any time place reasonable
restrictions on the types of investments We may use on your behalf, or on the allocations to each
security asset class or industry. You will receive written or electronic confirmations from your
account custodian after any changes are made to your account. You will also receive statement
at least quarterly from your account custodian. Our Investment Advisory Agreement outlines
the responsibilities of both the client and Davis, Davis and Conover.
Wealth Management Fees
We are compensated for providing investment management services to Our clients on a fee-only
basis based on the percentage of assets under management.
Each client’s fee will be disclosed on the Investment Advisory Agreement the client signs. All fees
are negotiable at the sole discretion of Davis, Davis and Conover.
Fees for investment management services are billed quarterly in advance and deducted from
clients’ accounts. The fee assessment is based on the market value of the account as determined
by the custodian as of the close of trading on the last business day of the previous quarter.
Upon termination, the client is entitled to a pro-rated refund of unearned fees for the quarter. If
asset management services are commenced in the middle of a billing period, the prorated fee for
the initial billing period is billed in advance at the time the account settles with the custodian.
The amount of the advisory fee charged for the quarter in which the account is established shall
be in proportion to the number of days remaining in the quarter.
Our maximum annual fees for management of your account are as follows:
Assets Under Management
First $500,000
Next $1,500,000 (up to $2,000,000)
Next $3,000,000 (up to $5,000,000)
Above $5,000,000
Annual Rate
2.00%
1.75%
1.50%
1.25%
Our receipt of an asset-based fee presents a conflict of interest. This is because the more assets
there are in the client’s account, the more the client will pay in fees. Therefore, We have an
5 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
incentive to encourage clients to increase the assets in their accounts. We address this conflict
of interest by ensuring any such recommendations are in the client’s best interest.
Retirement Plan Rollovers
When we provide investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or individual
retirement account, we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable, which are laws governing
retirement accounts. The way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests, so we
operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interest
ahead of yours. A client or prospective client leaving an employer typically has four options
regarding an existing retirement plan (and may engage in a combination of these options): (i)
leave the money in the former employer’s plan, if permitted, (ii) roll over the assets to the new
employer’s plan, if one is available and rollovers are permitted, (iii) roll over to an Individual
Retirement Account (“IRA”), or (iv) cash out the account value (which could, depending upon the
client’s age, result in adverse tax consequences). If We recommend that a client roll over their
retirement assets into an account to be managed by Davis, Davis and Conover, such a
recommendation creates a conflict of interest as We will earn a new (or increase Our current)
advisory fee as a result of the rollover. We address this conflict of interest by reviewing any such
recommendation to ensure it is in the best interest of the client. No client is under any obligation
to roll over retirement assets to an account managed by us.

Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
ACCOUNT REQUIREMENTS AND TYPES OF CLIENTS (Item 5)
Davis, Davis and Conover manages investments for many different types of clients. We generally
provide advice to individuals, high net worth individuals, their trusts, estates and retirement
accounts.
We require a minimum investment of $250,000 for Our wealth management services. The
minimum account size may be waived at the sole discretion of Davis, Davis and Conover.
7 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
PORTFOLIO MANAGER SELECTION AND EVALUATION (Item 6)
The Wrap Program offered by Davis, Davis and Conover is sponsored by the Firm. Davis, Davis
and Conover is the only portfolio manager.
Davis, Davis and Conover manages client assets on a discretionary basis. The investment strategy
for a specific client is based upon the objectives stated by the client during consultations with Us.
The client may change these objectives at any time. Each client completes a risk tolerance
questionnaire and suitability profile that documents their investment objectives, risk tolerance
and desired investment strategy.
We use fundamental analysis to select investments for client portfolios. This strategy attempts
to value companies and the securities they offer based on their underlying assets. We consider
financial statements, economics, interest rates, earnings, competitors, assets, liabilities, and
many other factors to determine the value of the company and the securities it sells. Based on
this analysis, We may implement both long and short term purchases in client accounts.
There are always risks to investing. Clients should be aware that all investments carry various
types of risk including the potential loss of principal that clients should be prepared to bear. It is
impossible to name all possible types of risks. Among the risks are the following:
• Political Risks. Most investments have a global component, even domestic stocks. Political
events anywhere in the world may have unforeseen consequences to markets around the
world.
• General Market Risks. Markets can, as a whole, go up or down on various news releases
or for no understandable reason at all. This sometimes means that the price of specific
securities could go up or down without real reason, and may take some time to recover
any lost value. Adding additional securities does not help to minimize this risk since all
securities may be affected by market fluctuations.
• 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.
• Regulatory Risk. Changes in laws and regulations from any government can change the
value of a given company and its accompanying securities. Certain industries are more
susceptible to government regulation. Changes in zoning, tax structure or laws impact the
return on these investments.
• Tax Risks Related to Short Term Trading. Clients should note that Davis, Davis and Conover
may engage in short-term trading transactions. These transactions may result in short
8 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
term gains or losses for federal and state tax purposes, which may be taxed at a higher
rate than long term strategies. We endeavor to invest client assets in a tax efficient
manner, but all clients are advised to consult with their tax professionals regarding the
transactions in client accounts. Frequent trading can affect investment performance,
particularly through increased brokerage and other transaction costs and taxes.
• Risks Related to Investment Term. If you require Us to liquidate your portfolio during a
period in which the price of the security is low, you will not realize as much value as you
would have had the investment had the opportunity to regain its value, as investments
frequently do, or had We been able to reinvest in another security.
• Purchasing Power Risk. Purchasing power risk is the risk that your investment’s value will
decline as the price of goods rises (inflation). The investment’s value itself does not
decline, but its relative value does, which is the same thing. Inflation can happen for a
variety of complex reasons, including a growing economy and a rising money supply.
•
Business Risk. These risks are associated with a particular industry or a particular
company within an industry. For example, oil-drilling companies depend on finding oil and
then refining it, a lengthy process, before they can generate a profit. They carry a higher
risk of profitability than an electric company, which generates its income from a steady
stream of customers who buy electricity no matter what the economic environment is
like.
• Liquidity Risk. Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash. For
example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate properties are not. Some
securities are highly liquid while others are highly illiquid. Illiquid investments carry more
risk because it can be difficult to sell them.
• Financial Risk. Excessive borrowing to finance a business’ operations decreases the risk of
profitability, because the company must meet the terms of its obligations in good times
and bad. During periods of financial stress, the inability to meet loan obligations may
result in bankruptcy and/or a declining market value.
• Default Risk. This risk pertains to the ability of a company to service their debt. Ratings
provided by several rating services help to identify those companies with more risk.
Obligations of the U.S. government are said to be free of default risk.

CLIENT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO PORTFOLIO MANAGERS (Item 7)
Davis, Davis and Conover monitors accounts on an ongoing basis and reviews client account
activity at least annually or as agreed upon with individual clients. One of Our IARs will review all
investment management accounts. Our reviews consist of determining whether your portfolios
and strategies continue to align with your investment goals, objectives and risk tolerances. If
reallocation of investments is necessary, We may either buy and/or sell other investments that
would result in a portfolio that is more appropriate for your investment goals and objectives.
10 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
CLIENT CONTACT WITH PORTFOLIO MANAGERS (Item 8)
Davis, Davis and Conover does not place any restrictions on the clients’ ability to contact and
consult with its IARs under the Wrap Program.
11 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Item 9)
Disciplinary Information
Davis, Davis and Conover is required to disclose the facts of any legal or disciplinary events that
are material to a client’s evaluation of its advisory business or the integrity of management. We
do not have any required disclosures to report in response to this Item.
Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Neither Our Firm nor any of Our management persons are registered, or have an application
pending to register, as a broker-dealer or a registered representative of a broker-dealer. In
addition, neither Davis, Davis and Conover nor any of its Investment Adviser Representatives
(“IARs”) receive compensation for the sale of securities.
Some of Our IARs are also licensed as insurance agents for various unaffiliated insurance
companies and may sell insurance products to advisory clients. IARs in such cases will earn typical
and customary commission for the sale of insurance products purchased for a client’s account.
This represents a conflict of interest in that these IARs may recommend purchasing insurance
products based on compensation received rather than on the needs of the client. We manage
this conflict of interest by requiring all IARs who are licensed to offer insurance products to Our
clients to assure that the issuing insurer reviews the potential sale of any products for the
purpose of determining adherence to applicable insurance suitability standards, requiring all IARs
to seek prior approval of any outside employment activity so that We may ensure that any
conflicts of interest in such activities are properly disclosed and fully disclosing to a client when
a particular transaction will result in the receipt of commissions or other associated fees.
Insurance products may be available through other channels and as a client you are not obligated
to purchase insurance products recommended by Our IARs. For more information, please see the
brochure supplement (Form ADV Part 2B) for each IAR.
Neither Davis, Davis and Conover nor its management has any arrangement or relationship that
is material to its business or clients with a related person that is a broker- dealer, municipal
securities dealer, government securities dealer or broker, investment company or other pooled
investment vehicle (including a mutual fund, closed-end investment company, unit investment
trust, private investment company or “hedge fund,” and offshore fund), other investment adviser
or financial planner, futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, commodity
trading advisor, banking or thrift institution, accountant or accounting firm, lawyer or law firm,
pension consultant, real estate broker or dealer, sponsor or syndicate of limited partnerships not
disclosed herein.
12 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
Code of Ethics
Davis, Davis and Conover, its management and persons associated with the Firm (“Associated
Persons”) subscribe to a strict code of ethics. Our Code of Ethics is designed to comply with the
investment advisory laws and regulations that require firms to act as fiduciaries in transactions
with their clients. Our fiduciary duty requires that We act solely in Our clients’ best interest and
adhere to standards of utmost integrity in Our communications and transactions. These
standards ensure that your interests are given precedence.
The Code of Ethics contains extensive policies, guidelines, and procedures that promote ethical
practices and conduct by all of the Firm personnel. We adopted Our Code of Ethics to specify
and prohibit certain types of transactions deemed to create conflicts of interest (or perceived or
potential conflicts of interest), as well as to establish reporting requirements and enforcement
procedures relating to personal transactions by Our personnel. Our Code of Ethics, which
specifically deals with professional standards, insider trading, personal trading, gifts and
entertainment, and fiduciary duties, establishes Our ideals for ethical conduct based upon
fundamental principles of openness, integrity, honesty, and trust. We will provide a copy of Our
complete Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client upon request.
Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
Davis, Davis and Conover does not recommend that clients buy or sell securities in which a related
person may have a material financial interest.
Proprietary Trading
Davis, Davis and Conover and Associated Persons are permitted to buy or sell securities that the
Firm also recommends to clients consistent with the Firm’s policies and procedures. This creates
a conflict of interest because it may be possible for Us or Our associates to receive more favorable
prices than Our clients. We will always document any transactions that could be construed as a
conflict of interest. To mitigate or remedy any actual or potential conflicts of interest, We will
monitor trading reports for adherence to Our Code of Ethics.
Simultaneous Trading
From time to time, the Firm and its Associated Persons may buy or sell securities for their own
accounts at or around the same time as clients. This policy presents a conflict of interest in that
Associated Persons have an incentive to prioritize their own trading over their clients. To mitigate
this conflict, in any instance where such securities are purchased or sold We will uphold Our
fiduciary duty by always ensuring that transactions are beneficial to the interest of Our clients
and that neither the sequence nor timing of execution or any other factor results in a benefit to
Davis, Davis and Conover or Our Associated Persons.
13 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
Review of Accounts
Davis, Davis and Conover monitors accounts on an ongoing basis and reviews client account
activity at least annually or as agreed upon with individual clients. One of Our IARs will review all
investment management accounts. Our reviews consist of determining whether your portfolios
and strategies continue to align with your investment goals, objectives and risk tolerances. If
reallocation of investments is necessary, We may either buy and/or sell other investments that
would result in a portfolio that is more appropriate for your investment goals and objectives.
Intermittent Review Factors
On a quarterly basis, We review the performance of your account to monitor consistency with
market benchmarks that We deem applicable. Intermittent reviews may be triggered by
substantial market fluctuation, economic or political events, or by changes in your financial status
or investment objectives or risk tolerance. It is the responsibility of the client to notify Us of any
change to financial status, investment objectives or risk tolerance (such as retirement,
termination of employment, relocation, or inheritance).
Client Reports
Clients will receive written transaction confirmations from the account custodian shortly after
executing purchases or sales. Additionally, the account custodian will send at least quarterly
written statements for each quarter in which the client has an account under management by
Davis, Davis and Conover. These statements will provide details regarding account activity,
holdings, and performance.
Davis, Davis and Conover may issue separate written reports regarding accounts to clients. The
written updates may include a performance report, statement of gains and losses, and/or a
financial markets summary. We encourage you to compare the information on your reports
prepared by Davis, Davis and Conover against the information in the statements provided directly
from the account custodian and alert Us of any discrepancies.
Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Except as described elsewhere in this Brochure, Davis, Davis and Conover does not receive and
does not have any arrangement to receive economic benefits (such as sales awards or other
prizes) from any third party for providing investment advice or other advisory services to Our
clients. (See Soft Dollar Arrangements, Item 12 of our Brochure).
Davis, Davis and Conover does not directly or indirectly compensate any person for client
referrals.
Davis, Davis and Conover does not receive compensation, directly or indirectly, for referring
clients to other advisers.

Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
Financial Information
Davis, Davis and Conover does not require or solicit the prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees
six months or more in advance of services rendered. We do not have a financial condition that is
reasonably likely to impair Our ability to meet contractual commitments to clients and We have
not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten years.

Davis, Davis and Conover information regarding income, investments, savings, insurance, age and
many other items that are helpful to the Firm in assessing your financial goals. The information
is typically provided during personal interviews and supplemented with written information.
Once the information is received, We will discuss your financial needs and goals with you and
compare your current financial situation with your stated goals and objectives. Once these are
compared, We will create a written financial and/or investment plan to help you meet your goals.

Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
We do not make recommendations on specific securities but will recommend types of
investments within specific asset classes.
Our financial plans may include information regarding retirement planning, advanced education
planning, college planning, long-term care needs, and estate planning issues. Our comprehensive
plans may also include information or analyses with respect to tax liabilities or risks. The plan is
intended to help you meet your goals or determine whether your goals need to be adjusted based
on current information about you. Not every plan will be the same for every client. Each one is
specific to the client who requested it. Because the plan is based on information supplied by you,
it is important that you accurately and completely communicate to Us the information We need.
Also, your circumstances and needs may change as your engagement with Us progresses. It is
very important that you continually update Us with any changes so that if the updates require
changes to your plan, We can make those changes.
Consulting Services
If requested, We may provide consulting services to you involving a review of wealth
management concerns. For example, We are typically tasked under this arrangement with
assisting with reviewing investment options and performance of outside assets such as 401(k)
plans with your current employer. These services are not financial planning services as We do not
provide a written report or conduct a comprehensive analysis of your financial position.
Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2024, We have $ $169,554,475in assets under management, all of which is
managed on a discretionary basis.

Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
METHODS OF ANALYSIS, INVESTMENT STRATEGIES, AND RISK OF LOSS (Item 8)
Davis, Davis and Conover manages client assets on a discretionary basis. The investment strategy
for a specific client is based upon the objectives stated by the client during consultations with Us.
The client may change these objectives at any time. Each client completes a risk tolerance
questionnaire and suitability profile that documents their investment objectives, risk tolerance
and desired investment strategy.
We use fundamental analysis to select investments for client portfolios. This strategy attempts
to value companies and the securities they offer based on their underlying assets. We consider
financial statements, economics, interest rates, earnings, competitors, assets, liabilities, and
many other factors to determine the value of the company and the securities it sells. Based on
this analysis, We may implement both long and short term purchases in client accounts.
There are always risks to investing. Clients should be aware that all investments carry various
types of risk including the potential loss of principal that clients should be prepared to bear. It is
impossible to name all possible types of risks. Among the risks are the following:
• Political Risks. Most investments have a global component, even domestic stocks. Political
events anywhere in the world may have unforeseen consequences to markets around the
world.
• General Market Risks. Markets can, as a whole, go up or down on various news releases
or for no understandable reason at all. This sometimes means that the price of specific
securities could go up or down without real reason, and may take some time to recover
any lost value. Adding additional securities does not help to minimize this risk since all
securities may be affected by market fluctuations.
• 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.
• Regulatory Risk. Changes in laws and regulations from any government can change the
value of a given company and its accompanying securities. Certain industries are more
susceptible to government regulation. Changes in zoning, tax structure or laws impact the
return on these investments.
• Tax Risks Related to Short Term Trading. Clients should note that Davis, Davis and Conover
may engage in short-term trading transactions. These transactions may result in short
term gains or losses for federal and state tax purposes, which may be taxed at a higher
rate than long term strategies. We endeavor to invest client assets in a tax efficient
manner, but all clients are advised to consult with their tax professionals regarding the
8 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
transactions in client accounts. Frequent trading can affect investment performance,
particularly through increased brokerage and other transaction costs and taxes.
• Risks Related to Investment Term. If you require Us to liquidate your portfolio during a
period in which the price of the security is low, you will not realize as much value as you
would have had the investment had the opportunity to regain its value, as investments
frequently do, or had We been able to reinvest in another security.
• Purchasing Power Risk. Purchasing power risk is the risk that your investment’s value will
decline as the price of goods rises (inflation). The investment’s value itself does not
decline, but its relative value does, which is the same thing. Inflation can happen for a
variety of complex reasons, including a growing economy and a rising money supply.
•
Business Risk. These risks are associated with a particular industry or a particular
company within an industry. For example, oil-drilling companies depend on finding oil and
then refining it, a lengthy process, before they can generate a profit. They carry a higher
risk of profitability than an electric company, which generates its income from a steady
stream of customers who buy electricity no matter what the economic environment is
like.
• Liquidity Risk. Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash. For
example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate properties are not. Some
securities are highly liquid while others are highly illiquid. Illiquid investments carry more
risk because it can be difficult to sell them.
• Financial Risk. Excessive borrowing to finance a business’ operations decreases the risk of
profitability, because the company must meet the terms of its obligations in good times
and bad. During periods of financial stress, the inability to meet loan obligations may
result in bankruptcy and/or a declining market value.
• Default Risk. This risk pertains to the ability of a company to service their debt. Ratings
provided by several rating services help to identify those companies with more risk.
Obligations of the U.S. government are said to be free of default risk.

DISCIPLINARY INFORMATION (Item 9)
Davis, Davis and Conover is required to disclose the facts of any legal or disciplinary events that
are material to a client’s evaluation of its advisory business or the integrity of management. We
do not have any required disclosures to report in response to this Item.
10 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
OTHER FINANCIAL INDUSTRY ACTIVITIES AND AFFILIATIONS (Item 10)
Neither Our Firm nor any of Our management persons are registered, or have an application
pending to register, as a broker-dealer or a registered representative of a broker-dealer. In
addition, neither Davis, Davis and Conover nor any of its Investment Adviser Representatives
(“IARs”) receive compensation for the sale of securities.
Some of Our IARs are also licensed as insurance agents for various unaffiliated insurance
companies and may sell insurance products to advisory clients. IARs in such cases will earn typical
and customary commission for the sale of insurance products purchased for a client’s account.
This represents a conflict of interest in that these IARs may recommend purchasing insurance
products based on compensation received rather than on the needs of the client. We manage
this conflict of interest by requiring all IARs who are licensed to offer insurance products to Our
clients to assure that the issuing insurer reviews the potential sale of any products for the
purpose of determining adherence to applicable insurance suitability standards, requiring all IARs
to seek prior approval of any outside employment activity so that We may ensure that any
conflicts of interest in such activities are properly disclosed and fully disclosing to a client when
a particular transaction will result in the receipt of commissions or other associated fees.
Insurance products may be available through other channels and as a client you are not obligated
to purchase insurance products recommended by Our IARs. For more information, please see the
brochure supplement (Form ADV Part 2B) for each IAR.
Neither Davis, Davis and Conover nor its management has any arrangement or relationship that
is material to its business or clients with a related person that is a broker- dealer, municipal
securities dealer, government securities dealer or broker, investment company or other pooled
investment vehicle (including a mutual fund, closed-end investment company, unit investment
trust, private investment company or “hedge fund,” and offshore fund), other investment adviser
or financial planner, futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, commodity
trading advisor, banking or thrift institution, accountant or accounting firm, lawyer or law firm,
pension consultant, real estate broker or dealer, sponsor or syndicate of limited partnerships not
disclosed herein.

CODE OF ETHICS, PARTICIPATION OR INTEREST IN CLIENT TRANSACTIONS AND PERSONAL
TRADING (Item 11)
Code of Ethics
Davis, Davis and Conover, its management and persons associated with the Firm (“Associated
Persons”) subscribe to a strict code of ethics. Our Code of Ethics is designed to comply with the
investment advisory laws and regulations that require firms to act as fiduciaries in transactions
with their clients. Our fiduciary duty requires that We act solely in Our clients’ best interest and
adhere to standards of utmost integrity in Our communications and transactions. These
standards ensure that your interests are given precedence.
The Code of Ethics contains extensive policies, guidelines, and procedures that promote ethical
practices and conduct by all of the Firm personnel. We adopted Our Code of Ethics to specify and
prohibit certain types of transactions deemed to create conflicts of interest (or perceived or
potential conflicts of interest), as well as to establish reporting requirements and enforcement
procedures relating to personal transactions by Our personnel. Our Code of Ethics, which
specifically deals with professional standards, insider trading, personal trading, gifts and
entertainment, and fiduciary duties, establishes Our ideals for ethical conduct based upon
fundamental principles of openness, integrity, honesty, and trust. We will provide a copy of Our
complete Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client upon request.
Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
Davis, Davis and Conover does not recommend that clients buy or sell securities in which a related
person may have a material financial interest.
Proprietary Trading
Davis, Davis and Conover and Associated Persons are permitted to buy or sell securities that the
Firm also recommends to clients consistent with the Firm’s policies and procedures. This creates
a conflict of interest because it may be possible for Us or Our associates to receive more favorable
prices than Our clients. We will always document any transactions that could be construed as a
conflict of interest. To mitigate or remedy any actual or potential conflicts of interest, We will
monitor trading reports for adherence to Our Code of Ethics.
Simultaneous Trading
From time to time, the Firm and its Associated Persons may buy or sell securities for their own
accounts at or around the same time as clients. This policy presents a conflict of interest in that
Associated Persons have an incentive to prioritize their own trading over their clients. To mitigate
this conflict, in any instance where such securities are purchased or sold We will uphold Our
fiduciary duty by always ensuring that transactions are beneficial to the interest of Our clients
and that neither the sequence nor timing of execution or any other factor results in a benefit to
Davis, Davis and Conover or Our Associated Persons.
12 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
BROKERAGE PRACTICES (Item 12)
Davis, Davis and Conover recommends that clients utilize the brokerage and clearing services of
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. member New York Stock Exchange/SIPC (“Raymond James”).
Factors which Davis, Davis and Conover considers in recommending Raymond James or any other
broker-dealer to clients include their respective financial strength, breadth of service, existing
relationships, execution, pricing, research and resources available. Not all Investment Advisers
recommend that a client use a particular broker-dealer. Prior to engaging Davis, Davis and
Conover to provide investment management services, the client will be required to enter into a
formal Investment Advisory Agreement with Us setting forth the terms and conditions under
which We shall manage the client’s assets, and a separate custodial/clearing agreement with
each designated broker-dealer/custodian. Not all advisers direct brokerage.
The commissions paid in connection with the execution of clients’ transactions comply with the
Firm’s duty to obtain “best execution.” The Firm pays all transaction charges under Our wrap fee
arrangement, which is more fully described in Our Wrap Fee Brochure (Form ADV Part 2A,
Appendix 1). We may pay commissions that are higher than another qualified Financial Institution
might charge to effect the same transaction where We determine that the commissions are
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services received. In seeking
best execution, the determinative factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the
transaction represents the best qualitative execution, taking into consideration the full range of
a Financial Institution’s services, including among others, the value of research provided,
execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. Davis, Davis and Conover seeks
competitive rates but may not necessarily obtain the lowest possible commission rates for client
transactions.
review Our policies and procedures
regarding
We periodically and systematically
recommendation of Financial Institutions in light of Our duty to obtain best execution.
Soft Dollar Benefits
Davis, Davis and Conover receives research or other products or services (i.e., soft dollar benefits)
from broker-dealers in exchange for placing trades or processing securities related transactions
for clients. We do not have to pay the broker-dealer for these services and no client is charged
for these services. Therefore, We receive a benefit. The products or services received may benefit
all of Our customers, not just those whose assets are custodied at the broker-dealer who provides
the products or services. This may result in higher transaction costs than those that would have
been incurred but for the soft dollar benefits. This is a conflict of interest, as We have an incentive
to recommend Raymond James because of Our existing relationship and the benefits We receive.
We mitigate this conflict by conducting semi-annual best execution reviews and through
application of Our policies and procedures. We have determined that the transaction charges We
incur and charge to you are reasonable in relation to the value of the services received.
13 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
Directed Brokerage
Clients may not direct Us to use a particular broker-dealer. If clients prefer to utilize their own
broker-dealer, We will not be able to provide wealth management services to those clients.
Block Trades
Davis, Davis and Conover may enter trades as a block where possible and when advantageous to
clients whose accounts have a need to buy or sell shares of the same security. If a block trade
occurs, the client will receive a price that represents the average of the prices at which all of the
transactions in the block were executed. This blocking of trades permits the trading of aggregate
blocks of securities composed of assets from multiple client accounts, and on a pro-rata basis
between all accounts included in any such block. Block trading allows Us to execute equity trades
in a timelier, equitable manner, and may reduce overall costs to clients.

REVIEW OF ACCOUNTS (Item 13)
Periodic Reviews
Davis, Davis and Conover’s criteria for reviewing client accounts is as follows:
1. Review of Financial Plans
Our Firm prepares its financial plans based on the financial data that clients provide to the
Firm. Financial plans are reviewed annually as well as upon the client’s election and request.
One of Our IARs will review all financial plans. Once a client elects to revise a financial plan, a
summary of the services to be rendered and relevant fees will be described in a new financial
planning agreement. It is the client’s responsibility to provide financial updates for
information contained
in the comprehensive financial plan and other confidential
questionnaires.
2. Review of Investment Management Accounts
Davis, Davis and Conover monitors accounts on an ongoing basis and reviews client account
activity at least annually or as agreed upon with individual clients. One of Our IARs will review
all investment management accounts. Our reviews consist of determining whether your
portfolios and strategies continue to align with your investment goals, objectives and risk
tolerances. If reallocation of investments is necessary, We may either buy and/or sell other
investments that would result in a portfolio that is more appropriate for your investment
goals and objectives.
Intermittent Review Factors
On a quarterly basis, We review the performance of your account to monitor consistency with
market benchmarks that We deem applicable. Intermittent reviews may be triggered by
substantial market fluctuation, economic or political events, or by changes in your financial status
or investment objectives or risk tolerance. It is the responsibility of the client to notify Us of any
change to financial status, investment objectives or risk tolerance (such as retirement,
termination of employment, relocation, or inheritance).
Client Reports
Clients will receive written transaction confirmations from the account custodian shortly after
executing purchases or sales. Additionally, the account custodian will send at least quarterly
written statements for each quarter in which the client has an account under management by
Davis, Davis and Conover. These statements will provide details regarding account activity,
holdings, and performance.
Davis, Davis and Conover may issue separate written reports regarding accounts to clients. The
written updates may include a performance report, statement of gains and losses, and/or a
financial markets summary. We encourage you to compare the information on your reports
15 | P a g e

prepared by Davis, Davis and Conover against the information in the statements provided directly
from the account custodian and alert Us of any discrepancies.
16 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
CLIENT REFERRALS AND OTHER COMPENSATION (Item 14)
Except as described elsewhere in this Brochure, Davis, Davis and Conover does not receive and
does not have any arrangement to receive economic benefits (such as sales awards or other
prizes) from any third party for providing investment advice or other advisory services to Our
clients. (See Soft Dollar Arrangements, Item 12).

referrals.

clients to other advisers.

CUSTODY (Item 15)
Davis, Davis and Conover does not hold physical custody of client funds or securities. We require
that a qualified custodian hold client assets. Information about the custodian We recommend is
fully described in the Brokerage Practices section (Item 12). Our Firm has indirect custody of client
funds and securities because of Our written authorization and ability to deduct advisory fees
directly from clients’ accounts. We also have custody due to Our standing authority to make
third-party transfers on behalf of Our clients who have granted Us this authority. This authority
is granted to Us by the client through the use of a standing letter of authorization (“LOA”)
established by the client with his or her qualified custodian. The standing LOA authorizes Our
Firm to disburse funds to one or more third parties specifically designated by the client pursuant
to the terms of the LOA, and can be changed or revoked by the client at any time. We have
implemented the safeguard requirements of SEC regulations by requiring safekeeping of your
funds and securities by a qualified custodian. We have further implemented procedures to
comply with the requirements outlined by the SEC in its February 21, 2017 No-Action Letter to
the Investment Adviser Association.
Client account statements are mailed or sent electronically by the account custodian. Clients are
advised to review these statements carefully, comparing asset values, holdings, and advisory fees
on account statements to that in previously received statements, confirmations, and fee invoices.
Davis, Davis and Conover may issue separate written reports regarding accounts to clients. The
written updates may include a performance report, statement of gains and losses, and/or a
financial markets summary. We encourage you to compare the information on your reports
prepared by Davis, Davis and Conover against the information in the statements provided directly
from the account custodian and alert Us of any discrepancies.
18 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC
INVESTMENT DISCRETION (Item 16)
All investment management clients grant Davis, Davis and Conover the authority to exercise
discretion on behalf of clients. We are considered to exercise investment discretion over a client’s
account if We can effect transactions for the client without first having to seek the client’s
consent for each transaction. Davis, Davis and Conover is given this authority through a power-
of-attorney included in the agreement between Us and the client. Clients may request a
reasonable limitation on this authority (such as certain securities not to be bought or sold). With
client consent, We take discretion over the following activities, among others:
• The securities to be purchased or sold;
• The amount of securities to be purchased or sold; and
• When transactions are made.
19 | P a g e
Davis, Davis and Conover Wealth Management, LLC

Clients are responsible for making elections relative to election of directors, mergers,
acquisitions, tender offers, bankruptcy proceedings and other type events pertaining to the
securities in the account. Clients receive proxies directly from the issuer or the custodian.
