Financial Information About Harbor Advisory Corporation …………………… 14 15 16 17 18 12 12 12 13 13 3 Item 4: Advisory Business A. History and Ownership Harbor Advisory Corporation (“Harbor” and also doing business as “Harbor Advisory”), an SEC registered investment adviser located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, has been providing personalized investment management services to individuals, families, foundations, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, pensions and profit-sharing plans, and corporations since 1972. Harbor is completely employee owned. Its owners are Weld R. Butler, John J. De Gan, and Daniel R. Zibinskas. B. Advisory Services Offered Harbor offers discretionary investment management of equity, balanced, and fixed income portfolios. Investment management clients can expect Harbor to offer advice on retirement planning, estate planning, educational funding, insurance issues, debt management, and tax planning as they relate to portfolios. Harbor does not practice law nor do we prepare tax returns. Harbor actively coordinates with tax, legal and other professional advisors on behalf of its clients. Note for IRA and Retirement Plan Clients – When deemed to be in the Client’s best interest, the Advisor will recommend that a client take a distribution from an ERISA sponsored plan or to roll over the assets to an Individual Retirement Accounts (“IRAs”), or recommend a similar transaction including rollovers from one ERISA sponsored Plan to another, one IRA to another IRA, or from one type of account to another account (e.g. commission-based account to fee based account). In such instances, the Advisor will serve as an investment fiduciary as that term is defined under The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and/or the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. Such a recommendation creates a conflict of interest if the Advisor will earn a new (or increase its current) advisory fee as a result of the transaction. No client is under any obligation to roll over a retirement account to an account managed by the Advisor. C. Individualized Investment Management Harbor renders portfolio management services by working with each client to develop an individualized asset allocation plan based on each client’s risk profile and individual needs, including the extent and nature of the client’s assets, tax and estate needs, and other considerations. Portfolios are designed to fulfill specific objectives of individual clients and may or may not resemble portfolios of other clients depending on each client’s risk profile, tax profile or other individual requirements. Clients who wish to impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities (due to specific philosophical or ideological objections to certain companies or industries or otherwise) can instruct their portfolio manager to avoid or eliminate these investments from their portfolio. D. Wrap Fee Programs Harbor DOES NOT participate in wrap fee programs. 4 E. Regulatory Assets Under Management As of December 31, 2024, Harbor managed $443,927,991.84 in client assets, whic h a r e ma n age d on a discretionary basis. Item 5: Fees and Compensation A. Investment Management Fee Schedule Investment management fees are based on a percentage of assets under management, which are determined using the market value of accounts, including cash or by adding margin balance, if any, shown in the initial and quarterly appraisals. Investment management fees are calculated according to the following Fee Schedule: ANNUAL FEE SCHEDULE BASED ON ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT: Annual Fee Schedule Based on Assets Under Management: Asset Value Annual Fee First $1,000,000 Plus $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 Plus $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 Plus $10,000,000 to $20,000,000 Plus $20,000,000 or more 1.10% 0.70% 0.60% 0.50% Negotiated Harbor charges a minimum annual fee of $20,000. However, this minimum annual investment management fee may be waived at Harbor’s discretion in certain circumstances. Some clients have a fixed fee as a percentage of all assets expressed in basis points charged. Harbor reserves the right to negotiate a lower fee under certain circumstances. Our advisory fees are based on several factors including, but not limited to: the services offered to the Client, the complexity of the services to be provided, the level of Client assets managed by the Advisor, and/or the overall relationship with the advisor. B. How Fees are Paid Fees may be subject to proration if there are multiple accounts. Fees are paid quarterly in advance. Typically, the quarterly advisory fee is deducted automatically from each client’s account held at a designated custodian pursuant to standing instructions provided to the custodian by the client. C. Other Fees (Custody, etc.) In addition to the investment management fee assessed by Harbor, each client is responsible for any and all custodial fees as well as brokerage and other transaction costs incurred in connection with Harbor’s investment management services. To the extent that a client invests in a pooled investment vehicle such as a mutual fund, an exchange-traded fund or direct investments, the client 5 will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the underlying pooled investment. In addition, in instances where clients request Harbor, or its related persons, to provide services other than investment management services, Harbor may charge additional fees. For example, Harbor may charge additional fees on an hourly basis or a fixed fee basis in instances where it provides consulting services. D. Advance Fee Refund Policy Harbor’s clients are required to pay investment management fees quarterly in advance. If the advisory agreement between Harbor and any client is terminated prior to the end of the billing period, any unearned fee shall be refunded pro-rata based on the day of receipt of the written termination notice. E. Commissionable Securities Sales Neither Harbor nor any of its supervised persons accepts compensation for the sale of securities or other investment products either from sales charges, commissions or service fees. Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management Neither Harbor nor any of its supervised persons accepts performance-based fees. Since all accounts managed by Harbor are charged an asset-based fee, Harbor is not in a position to favor performance- based fee accounts over other accounts. Item 7: Types of Clients Harbor serves as an investment advisor to families, individuals, pensions and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, foundations, charitable organizations, and corporations. The great majority of Harbor’s client base consists of families and related accounts. Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss A. Method of Analysis and Investment Strategy Harbor employs a combination of economic and fundamental analysis to determine asset allocation and security selection. B. Material Risks Involved Economic analysis involves researching conditions in world economies and financial markets to determine the risk/reward characteristics of various asset classes such as stocks and bonds. Fundamental security analysis involves researching individual companies and their securities to assess the risk/reward characteristics of those companies. Securities viewed as undervalued relative to their intrinsic value in the opinion of the analyst are considered for purchase. Financial statement analysis, strategy assessment, and management capability are components of fundamental analysis. 6 Technical analysis involves studying historical price trends for individual securities to help determine the appropriate prices at which to buy and sell the security. C. Types of Securities Utilized and Their Potential Risks Harbor invests primarily in equity securities (common and preferred), fixed income securities (such as corporate, government and municipal bonds), alternative investments, exchange traded funds, and mutual funds or sub-advised accounts invested in stocks and bonds inside and outside of the United States. Harbor may invest in select alternative and/or direct investments where appropriate. All of the securities Harbor buys for clients are subject to risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. A client’s investment portfolio will fluctuate in value as market conditions change, and the client could lose all or a portion of the value of the investment portfolio over short or even long periods of time. The principal risks of investing in equity securities, fixed income securities and pooled investment vehicles are: Equity Securities Risk. Investments in equity securities are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value as market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change. These investor perceptions are based on various and unpredictable factors including: expectations regarding government, economic, monetary and fiscal policies; inflation and interest rates; economic expansion or contraction; global or regional political, economic and banking crises; and factors affecting specific industries, sectors or companies in which Harbor invests on behalf of clients. The value of a client’s investment portfolio and the corresponding investment return will fluctuate based upon changes in the value of its portfolio securities. Large-Cap Company Risk. Investments in larger, more established companies are subject to the risk that larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors potentially resulting in lower markets for their common stock. Mid-Cap and Small-Cap Companies Risk. Investments in mid-cap and small-cap companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of large-cap companies. Therefore, their securities may be more volatile and less liquid than the securities of larger, more established companies. Mid-cap and small-cap company stocks may also be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Analysts and other investors may follow these companies less actively and therefore information about these companies may not be as readily available as that for large-cap companies. 7 Fixed Income Securities Risks. Debt securities are subject to the following risks: • Credit Risk. Issuers of fixed income securities may be unable to make principal and interest payments when they are due. There is also the risk that the securities could lose value because of a loss of confidence in the ability of the issuer to pay back debt. The degree of credit risk for a particular security may be reflected in its credit rating. Lower rated fixed income securities involve greater credit risk, including the possibility of default or bankruptcy. • Interest Rate Risk. Fixed income securities could lose value because of interest rate changes. For example, bonds tend to decrease in value if interest rates rise. Fixed income securities with longer maturities sometimes offer higher yields, but are subject to greater price shifts as a result of interest rate changes than debt securities with shorter maturities. • Prepayment and Extension Risk. Prepayment occurs when the issuer of a debt security repays principal prior to the security’s maturity. During periods of declining interest rates, issuers may increase pre-payments of principal causing Harbor to invest in fixed income securities with lower yields thus reducing income generation. Similarly, during periods of increasing interest rates, issuers may decrease pre- payments of principal extending the duration of debt securities potentially to maturity. Fixed income securities with longer maturities are subject to greater price shifts as a result of interest rate changes. The potential impact of prepayment features on the price of a debt security can be difficult to predict and result in greater volatility. • Government-Sponsored Entities Risk. Investments in U.S. government obligations include securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, such as the U.S. Treasury. Payment of principal and interest on U.S.government obligations may be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States or may be backed solely by the issuing or guaranteeing agency or instrumentality itself. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities (including government-sponsored enterprises) where it is not obligated to do so. • Junk Bonds Risk. Investments in bonds that are rated below investment grade, commonly known as “junk bonds” generally provide high income in an effort to compensate investors for their higher risk of default, which is the failure to make required interest or principal payments. Investments in junk bonds have speculative or predominately speculative characteristics. Junk bonds are not investment grade securities and involve greater risk of default or price changes due to changes in the issuers’ creditworthiness than do higher quality securities. In addition, the market prices of lower rated securities may decline significantly in periods of general economic difficulty or rising interest rates. As a result, junk bonds present a significant risk for loss of principal and interest. The market for these securities may also be thinner and less active than that for higher quality securities, which may adversely affect the ability to sell the bonds as well as the price at which they can be sold. Due to the potential for limited liquidity, the prices for junk bonds may also not be readily available. 8 Foreign securities Risk. Harbor may also invest client assets in foreign securities which are subject to special risks. Foreign securities can be more volatile than domestic (U.S.) securities. Securities markets of other countries are generally smaller than U.S. securities markets. Many foreign securities may be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. securities, which could affect client investments. Foreign securities are denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies and U.S. investors are subject to fluctuations in the value of their investments based upon the changes in currency values. ETF and Mutual Fund Risk. Exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) are typically open-end investment companies that are bought and sold on a national securities exchange. When Harbor invests a client’s assets in an ETF, the client will bear additional expenses based on its pro rata share of the ETF’s operating expenses, including the potential duplication of management fees. The risk of owning an ETF generally reflects the risks of owning the underlying securities it holds. Many ETFs seek to replicate a specific benchmark index. However, an ETF may not fully replicate the performance of its benchmark index for many reasons, including because of the temporary unavailability of certain index securities in the secondary market or discrepancies between the ETF and the index with respect to the weighting of securities or the number of stocks held. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities it holds. In addition, because of ETF expenses, compared to owning the underlying securities directly, it may be more costly to own an ETF. Alternative and Direct Investments. Direct, private or alternative investments are subject to the risk of loss based on the underlying asset types and concentration risk. Investors in alternative investments should also understand there are risks due to limited liquidity, varying fee structures, tax complexity, and the use of leverage. Investing in securities involves risk of loss which clients should be prepared to bear. Item 9: Disciplinary Information There are no legal or disciplinary events involving Harbor or its officers and employees that are material to a client or a prospective client’s evaluation of Harbor’s advisory business or the integrity of Harbor’s management. Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Harbor has no other financial industry activities and affiliations to disclose. Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Harbor has adopted a Code of Ethics (“Code”) that cultivates a culture of ethical behavior and requires all employees to conduct themselves in the most ethical manner possible. The Code requires that all employees consider the best interests of Harbor’s clients at all times and further requires that employees place the interests of Harbor’s clients ahead of the interests of employees and the firm. Harbor believes that the best first line of defense against unethical behavior lies in the selection of a business model and in hiring practices. Harbor sells no products, has no investments in or 9 alliances with other organizations, charges no incentive fees, and does not provide custody services (although it may be deemed to have custody of client assets in certain situations). In addition, Harbor’s employees are required to attend annual compliance meetings and must read and initial Harbor’s Compliance Manual, which incorporates the Code. Harbor will supply a copy of its Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client upon request. Harbor and its related persons do not utilize in client accounts, securities in which Harbor or its related person has a material financial interest. Harbor does not, as a principal, buy securities from or sell securities to its clients. Harbor and its employees and immediate family members, spouse and minor children, may buy or sell securities that Harbor also utilizes for its client’s investments. It is a conflict of interest to utilize any security for a client, or to direct any transaction for a client in a security, if Harbor or its employees and immediate family members has a material interest in that security. In order to address this conflict of interest, Harbor maintains an employee trading policy to protect clients from potential negative effects of employee trading. This trading policy prohibits Harbor’s employees and immediate family members (spouse and minor children) from trading securities listed on the Harbor common stock review list on the same day as Harbor employees purchase that security for Harbor clients. Before entering personal security orders, all of Harbor’s employees are required to check with the President or CCO in order to avoid a transaction that will violate this rule. Any employee transaction that violates this policy must be immediately reversed. Compliance with this policy is enforced by monthly monitoring of employee trades, by the President, CCO or controller, and the review of reports of employee trades. In addition, any purchase or sale of securities on Harbor’s Common Stock Review must be promptly reported to the CCO or President. Harbor also maintains a policy prohibiting employees from trading based on material non-public information (more commonly known as “insider trading”). Item 12: Brokerage Practices As an investment advisor, Harbor has a fiduciary obligation to obtain the most favorable execution available for client transactions. In selecting or utilizing broker-dealers for client transactions and determining the reasonableness of their compensation, Harbor considers factors such as financial stability, quality of execution, strength of bookkeeping, and quality of reporting and custodial services. Trading costs are a primary consideration in selecting 10 brokerage services. Additionally, Harbor requires broker-dealers to comply with all regulations relating to Anti-Money Laundering laws, The Patriot Act, and Customer Identification Programs. Research and other Soft Dollar Benefits - Harbor does not enter into any formal agreements with broker-dealers whereby it receives research, products or services other than execution from a broker- dealer or third party in connection with directing client securities transactions to that broker-dealer (“soft dollar benefits”). Although Harbor does not have a formal soft dollar agreement with any broker-dealer, in certain instances Harbor may select broker-dealers that provide services to Harbor in addition to brokerage services provided that those additional services fall within the Section 28(e) Safe Harbor under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For example, Harbor may receive proprietary research or software from broker-dealers that Harbor uses to execute transactions in client accounts. The proprietary research received from broker-dealers is subsidized by the commissions generated from client transactions executed through those financial institutions. Specifically, the commission rates of these broker-dealers are typically higher than the commission rates of brokers that do not provide such research. The use of client brokerage commissions to obtain proprietary research benefits Harbor in that the firm does not have to produce the research itself or pay for the research. While proprietary research received is used to service all client accounts, the receipt of proprietary research may provide an incentive for Harbor to utilize such brokers to clients instead of those who do not render such research. As an investment advisor, Harbor has a fiduciary obligation to obtain the most favorable price and execution available for client transactions. Applicable law, however, permits Harbor to pay a higher commission rate or spread to a broker- dealer that provides research services if Harbor has determined in good faith that the commission rate or spread is reasonable in relation to the brokerage and/or research services provided by that broker-dealer. Harbor does not consider, in selecting or utilizing broker-dealers, whether Harbor or its related persons receive client referrals from a broker-dealer or third party. Directed Brokerage - Harbor generally requires that clients direct Harbor to execute transactions through a certain broker-dealer (the “Designated Broker-Dealer”). While directing brokerage may prevent Harbor from obtaining the most favorable execution in certain transactions, Harbor requests that clients utilize the Designated Broker-Dealer because Harbor believes that it is able to obtain overall best execution with the Designated Broker-Dealer. Although this is Harbor’s practice, not all advisors require their clients to execute transactions through a specific broker-dealer. In some instances, clients designate a broker-dealer of their choosing. In these instances Harbor may be unable to achieve the most favorable execution for the client as certain brokers may charge higher commissions than other brokers. Thus, directing brokerage may cost clients more money. Clients should be aware that selecting one’s own broker-dealer may affect Harbor’s ability to obtain best execution or price for such clients. In addition, directing brokerage may cost clients money because Harbor may not be able to aggregate orders to achieve most favorable execution of client transactions. Harbor may aggregate purchases or sales of securities for various client accounts. Typically, this method is used when Harbor perceives timeliness of the transaction as an overriding consideration, and that tax implications, substitution, selection, and appropriate levels of security type or sector asset allocation are less important on an individual portfolio by portfolio basis. Harbor may elect 11 not to aggregate purchases or sales of securities for various client accounts when Harbor perceives consideration of a transaction’s tax implications, substitution selection and appropriate levels of security type or sector asset allocations on an individual portfolio by portfolio basis, override timing considerations. Aggregation, or lack thereof, does not affect transaction fee levels. Item 13: Review of Accounts Harbor’s portfolio managers review client portfolios on a regular and frequent basis. Accounts are reviewed for conformity with client investment objectives. New developments or addition or removal of a security from the Common Stock Review (list of equity securities approved for client purchases by Harbor’s Investment Committee) will trigger a review, as will the input of new information from the client. The Common Stock Review and other relevant issues are explored and discussed monthly or more often by Harbor’s Investment Committee. Harbor provides clients with a valuation document covering their managed accounts on a quarterly basis and provides detailed valuation and year-to-year comparisons annually (or more frequently upon client request). Additionally, clients receive printed statements and/or web access to monthly asset holding valuation and transaction reports directly from their custodian. Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation Harbor does not receive any economic benefit from anyone who is not a client for providing investment advice or other advisory services to clients. Neither Harbor, nor any related person, either directly or indirectly compensates any person who is not a supervised person of Harbor for client referrals. Item 15: Custody Trustee for Client Accounts - Representatives of Harbor may act as a trustee to certain client accounts. As such, we are deemed to have custody. The client funds and securities of which we have custody may be verified by actual examination at least once during each calendar year by an independent public accountant (“IPA”), at a time that is chosen by the accountant without prior notice or announcement to our firm and that is irregular from year to year. Clients are encouraged to raise any questions with us about the custody, safety or security of their assets and our custodial recommendations. Item 16: Investment Discretion Harbor primarily manages client securities accounts on a discretionary basis. Clients execute Limited Powers of Attorney authorizing Harbor to buy, sell and trade in client accounts based on investment objectives set out by the advisory contract (Participation Agreement/Investment Policy Statement) between Harbor and the client. Harbor generally has discretion to determine which securities to buy and sell, the amount of securities to buy or sell, the broker-dealer to use in any transaction, and the commission rate to be paid to the broker-dealer. Clients may impose restrictions on Harbor’s discretionary authority by providing written instructions to the client’s 12 portfolio manager. Item 17: Proxy Voting Harbor does not accept the proxy authority to vote client securities. Clients will receive proxies or other solicitations directly from their custodian or a transfer agent. Item 18: Financial Information Harbor is not required to provide financial information in this Brochure because: • Our firm does not require the prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees when services cannot be rendered within 6 months. • Our firm does not take custody of client funds or securities. • Our firm does not have a financial condition or commitment that impairs our ability to meet contractual and fiduciary obligations to clients. Harbor has never been the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding. 13
