Item 4 – Advisory Business
Rockbridge is a limited liability company formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia
in December 2023. The Firm’s principal owner and Managing Member is Peter Keefe.
Rockbridge will provide investment management services on a discretionary basis to a client base
including, but not limited to, institutions, individuals/families, investment partnerships, retirement
plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, foundations, corporations, pooled investment
vehicles, and other business entities (each a “client” and collectively “clients”). The Firm will
invest primarily in publicly-traded equity securities but will not limit the types of investments it
selects, provided that its management activities will be defined by the relevant investment
management agreements, operating agreements, and/or other governing documents (collectively,
the “Governing Documents”).
Rockbridge does not anticipate acting as the sponsor or portfolio manager of any wrap fee
programs.
As of the date of this Brochure, Rockbridge managed approximately $216,368,000 of regulatory
assets under management on a discretionary basis.

Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
Separately Managed Accounts
Rockbridge charges each separately managed account an investment management fee based on the
value of the client’s assets under management. The standard fee is 1% of assets under management
payable quarterly (0.25%) in arrears. The minimum fee is $12,500 per quarter, which will be pro-
rated based on the number of days that the account was open during the quarter. Under certain
circumstances, minimum fees may be waived at the sole discretion of the Firm. Fees are typically
deducted directly from the client’s account. The minimum required to open an account is
$5,000,000, which may be waived by Rockbridge in its sole discretion.
Rockbridge, in its sole discretion, may waive all or a portion of a client’s investment management
fee, or may agree to other changes with respect to a client’s investment management fee.
Pooled Investment Vehicle
The management fees, performance allocation, and expenses expected for each investor in a pooled
investment vehicle managed by Rockbridge (each, a “Fund”) are as defined in the relevant Fund’s
offering documents. Performance allocations are deferred for the first five years of an investor’s
investment, as described further below.
The performance allocation assessed to an investor’s Capital Account for a given performance
period is 25% of net appreciation in the investor’s Capital Account over and above the rate of
return which is the Fund’s Hurdle over a period of 5 years. Subject to the deferral period discussed
below, the performance allocation is assessed at the end of each fiscal year of the Fund and upon
a full or partial withdrawal from the Fund by the investor.
Performance allocations generally will be deferred (i.e. they will accrue but not be payable) for the
first five years of an investor’s investment in the Fund. On the fifth anniversary of the investor’s
investment in the Fund, performance allocations will be deducted from the investor’s Capital
Account. Specifically, to the extent deduction of performance allocations from the investor’s
Capital Account would cause the net appreciation of the investor’s Capital Account over the deferral
period to be less than the Hurdle over the same period, the excess deferred performance allocations
will be waived at that time. After the fifth anniversary, the investor’s Capital Account will be
assessed
5
performance allocations annually and on withdrawal. After the 5-year deferral, each investor will
be subject to a performance allocation calculated and charged at the end of each calendar year in
an amount of 25% of each investor’s relatable share of the Partnership’s profits for such calendar
year which are in excess of a rate of return equal to 6% of the investor’s capital account. If the
investor makes multiple capital contributions to the Fund over time, then the five-year deferral
period will run separately on a staggered basis for each contribution.
Rockbridge, in its sole discretion, may waive all or a portion of the performance allocation as to a
Fund investor, or may agree with a Fund investor to other changes in the performance allocation
with respect to that investor.
Other Fees and Expenses
In addition to the investment management fees and performance allocations (if applicable), client
accounts are also subject to other expenses such as, but not limited to, custodial charges; brokerage
and trading commissions and related costs; taxes; foreign exchange transaction fees; and costs,
expenses and fees that may be specific to the account. Client assets may be invested in money
market mutual funds, ETFs, or similar instruments. For such investments, the client will bear its
pro-rata share of the investment management fee and related expenses of such investments
separately from the investment management fee paid to Rockbridge. For a full discussion of
Rockbridge’s brokerage practices, please refer to Item 12 of this Brochure.
Rockbridge or the client may request termination of the investment management agreement, and
the client may obtain a pro-rata refund of investment management fees paid by supplying written
notice to Rockbridge thirty (30) days prior to the effective date.
Unless otherwise disclosed in the Governing Documents, neither the Firm nor any of its supervised
persons accepts compensation for the sale of securities or other investment products.
6
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management
As noted within Item 5 above, the Firm will generally receive a performance-based allocation from
Fund clients. The performance allocation arrangements may provide the Firm with an incentive to
engage in more speculative investment strategies in order to potentially receive greater
compensation.
Separately managed account clients are currently not subject to any performance-based fees but
there could be significant overlap in securities holdings between the funds and separately managed
client accounts.
The Firm is only entitled to performance-based allocations from the Funds. As such, the Firm may
have actual or potential conflicts of interest between the Fund and separately managed account
clients with respect to the allocation of investment opportunities, allocation of time management
from one account over another, conflicts in allocation of trades, and conflicts based on fees. For
example, given that a Fund is subject to performance-based compensation, there is an economic
incentive for Rockbridge to prioritize the allocation of investments to such Fund.
The Firm implements and follows procedures it believes are reasonably designed to help ensure
clients are treated fairly over time, and to prevent conflicts from influencing the allocation of
investment opportunities among clients. We address this conflict through disclosure in the
applicable Governing Documents and this Brochure.
7
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Rockbridge will offer investment advisory services to a range of client types, including, but not
limited to, institutions, individuals/families, pooled investment vehicles (including the Funds),
retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, foundations, corporations, and others, all
as described in Item 4.
Rockbridge requires that a client invest a minimum of $5,000,000 to open an account. The
minimum investment requirement may be waived at the discretion of the Firm.
8
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss
Rockbridge selects and monitors investments based on fundamental research, including analysis
of regulatory filings, management interviews, industry research, and estimations of a business’s
long-term earnings power. The Firm’s investment process is to seek to identify superior businesses
with sustainably high returns on invested capital and which are run by managers that the Firm
believes have excellent capital allocation skills and a strong shareholder orientation. Rockbridge
will seek to acquire these businesses at a price which, over time, produces returns in excess of the
broad market. There is no assurance that the Firm will be successful in this pursuit.
As stated in Item 4, the Firm will not limit the types of investments it selects. Generally, the Firm’s
investment strategy involves a degree of risk, including the risk of complete loss. There can be no
assurance that the Firm will be able to achieve its investment objective or that investments will be
profitable. Nothing in this Brochure is intended to imply, and no one is or will be authorized to
represent, that the Firm’s investment program is low risk or risk free.
General Market Risk
Investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal. Clients should be prepared to bear
losses accordingly.
Short Sales
Short sales can, in certain circumstances, substantially increase the impact of adverse price
movements on a portfolio. A short sale involves the risk of a theoretically unlimited increase in
the market price of the particular investment sold short, which could result in an inability to cover
the short position and a theoretically unlimited loss. There can be no assurance that securities
necessary to cover a short position will be available for purchase.
Use of Leverage
The Firm may utilize leverage with respect to the Funds not separate accounts. This results in
controlling more assets than a Fund has equity. Leverage increases returns if it earns a greater
return on investments purchased with borrowed funds than the cost of borrowing such funds.
However, the use of leverage presents additional levels of risk, including, but not limited to, (i)
greater losses from investments than would otherwise have been the case had the Fund not
borrowed to make the investments, (ii) margin calls or interim margin requirements, which may
force premature liquidations of investment positions adverse to the long term investment thesis of
said security by the Firm and (iii) losses on investments where the investment fails to earn a return
that equals or exceeds the cost of borrowing such funds. In the event of a sudden, precipitous drop
in the value of the Fund’s assets, the manager might not be able to liquidate assets quickly enough
to repay its borrowings, further magnifying its losses.
In an unsettled credit environment, the Firm may find it difficult or impossible to obtain leverage
for a Fund. In addition, any leverage obtained, if terminated on short notice by the lender, could
result in the Firm being forced to unwind a Fund’s positions quickly and at prices below what the
Firm deems to be fair value for such positions.
9
Hedging Transactions
The Firm may utilize a variety of financial instruments such as derivatives, options, swaps, caps
and floors, and forward contracts for both risk management and general investment and speculation
purposes. With respect to the client’s risk management and hedging transactions, there can be no
assurances that a particular hedge is appropriate, or that a certain risk is measured properly.
Further, while the Firm may enter into hedging transactions to seek to reduce risk, such
transactions may result in poorer overall performance and increased (rather than reduced) risk than
if it did not engage in any such hedging transactions. In addition, the Firm may choose not to enter
into hedging transactions with respect to some or all of its positions.
Non-Diversification
The separately managed accounts will consist of long-only positions, but the Funds generally may
contain a number of both long and short positions. Clients may be invested primarily in a relatively
concentrated portfolio of equity securities. Such concentration may increase losses as the
investment portfolio may be more volatile than would be the case if the portfolios were more
diversified.
Non-U.S. Securities
The Firm may invest outside of the United States. Investing in securities of non-U.S. governments
and companies which are generally denominated in non-U.S. currencies involves certain
considerations comprising both risks and opportunities not typically associated with investing in
securities of the United States government or United States companies. These considerations
include changes in exchange rates and exchange control regulations, political and social instability,
expropriation, imposition of foreign taxes, less liquid markets and less available information than
is generally the case in the United States, higher transaction costs, less government supervision of
exchanges, brokers and issuers, greater risks associated with counterparties and settlement,
difficulty in enforcing contractual obligations, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards,
and greater price volatility.
Derivatives
To the extent that the Firm invests in swaps or derivative or synthetic instruments, or enters into
repurchase agreements or other over-the-counter transactions, the Firm may take a credit risk with
regard to parties with whom it trades and may also bear the risk of settlement default. These risks
may differ materially from those entailed in exchange-traded transactions that generally are backed
by clearing organization guarantees, more frequent mark-to-market and settlement, and
segregation and minimum capital requirements applicable to intermediaries. Transactions entered
directly between two counterparties generally do not benefit from such protections and expose the
parties to the risk of counterparty default. It is expected that all securities and other assets deposited
with custodians or brokers will be clearly identified as being assets (directly or indirectly) of the
Firm’s clients, and hence the clients should not be exposed to a credit risk with regard to such
parties. However, it may not always be possible to achieve this segregation, and there may be
10
practical or time problems associated with enforcing rights to its assets in the case of an insolvency
of any such party.
Currency Risks
The Firm’s clients may have exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. It may, in part,
seek to offset the risks associated with this exposure or enter into foreign exchange transactions to
increase its returns. Changes in exchange rates over time are the result of many factors directly or
indirectly affecting the economic and political conditions in the country or economic region
associated with a specific currency. Exchange rates fluctuate for a number of reasons.
Cyber Security Breaches and Identity Theft
The Firm’s information and technology systems may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from
computer viruses, network failures, computer and telecommunication failures, infiltration by
unauthorized persons and security breaches, usage errors by its professionals, power outages and
catastrophic events such as fires, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes and earthquakes. Although the Firm
has implemented various measures to manage risks relating to these types of events, if these
systems are compromised, become inoperable for extended periods of time or cease to function
properly, the Firm may have to make a significant investment to fix or replace them. The failure
of these systems and/or of disaster recovery plans for any reason could cause significant
interruptions in the Firm’s operations and result in a failure to maintain the security, confidentiality
or privacy of sensitive data, including personal information relating to investors (and the beneficial
owners of investors). Such a failure could harm the Firm’s reputation, subject it to legal claims and
otherwise affect its business and financial performance.
Lack of Liquidity of Investments
While the Firm expects the majority of client portfolios to be liquid, assets may, at any given time,
include securities and other financial instruments or obligations that are thinly traded or for which
no market exists and/or which are restricted as to their transferability under applicable securities
laws and company-imposed restrictions. The sale of any such investments may be possible only at
substantial discounts, and it may be extremely difficult to accurately value any such investments.
Unrelated Business Taxable Income for Certain Tax-Exempt Investors
Pension and profit-sharing plans, individual retirement accounts, and other tax-exempt investors
may realize “unrelated business taxable income” because of an investment in a Fund since the
Fund may employ leverage. Any tax-exempt investor should consult their own tax adviser with
respect to the effect of an investment in a Fund on its own tax situation.
Effects of Health Crises and Other Force Majeure Events
Health crises, such as pandemic and epidemic diseases, as well as other catastrophes that interrupt
the expected course of events, such as natural disasters, war or civil disturbance, acts of terrorism,
power outages and other unforeseeable and external events, and the public response to or fear of
11
such diseases or events, have and may in the future have an adverse effect on clients’ investments
and the Firm’s operations. For example, any preventative or protective actions that governments
may take in respect of such diseases or events may result in periods of business disruption, inability
to obtain raw materials, supplies and component parts, and reduced or disrupted operations for
clients’ investments. In addition, under such circumstances the operations, including functions
such as trading and valuation, of the Firm and other service providers could be reduced, delayed,
suspended or otherwise disrupted. The Firm’s current portfolio manager(s) could fall ill or
otherwise be adversely affected by such events, requiring the addition and/or substitution of other
investment personnel to act as portfolio managers. Further, the occurrence and pendency of such
diseases or events could adversely affect the economies and financial markets either in specific
countries or worldwide.
12
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
Registered investment advisers are required to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or
disciplinary events that would be material to client’s evaluation of the adviser or the integrity of
adviser’s management.
There are no legal or disciplinary events that are material to an evaluation of Rockbridge’s advisory
services or the integrity of its management.
13
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Neither Rockbridge nor any of its management persons are currently registered or have an
application pending to register as a broker-dealer or a registered representative of a broker-dealer,
or a futures commission merchant, a commodity pool operator, a commodity trading advisor, or
an associated person of the foregoing entities.
House Mountain GP, LLC, delegates investment discretion of House Mountain Partners, LP and
its Feeder Fund, House Mountain Partners (Cayman), LP to Rockbridge Capital Management,
LLC. Rockbridge and its management persons do not have any other relationships or arrangements
material to the Firm’s advisory business or its clients. In the future, Rockbridge, either directly or
through an affiliate, may serve as the general partners, managing member or other form of sponsor
to a pooled investment vehicle, the conflicts surrounding which will be fully disclosed to
underlying investors.
Rockbridge does not recommend or select other investment advisers for clients.
14
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal
Trading
Rockbridge has adopted a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) which describes the Firm’s fiduciary duties
and responsibilities to its clients and requires that the Firm’s employees act in the best interests of
its clients, act in good faith and in an ethical manner, avoid conflicts of interest with the clients to
the extent reasonably possible, and identify and manage conflicts of interest to the extent that they
arise. The Code, along with the Firm’s policies and procedures (the “Policies and Procedures”), is
expected to serve as a minimum standard of professional conduct, helping create and support a
culture of compliance. The Firm’s employees will be required to comply with applicable
provisions of the federal securities laws and make prompt reports to the Firm or other appropriate
party of any actual or suspected violations of such laws by the Firm or its employees. In addition,
the Code will set forth formal policies and procedures that aim to prevent the misuse and disclosure
of material nonpublic information (“MNPI”) or other confidential information, including, but not
limited to, policies that relate to personal securities trading, conflicts of interest, gifts and
entertainment, and outside business activities. As a part of the Code’s policies and procedures, as
they relate to employee personal trading, Rockbridge employees are prohibited from owning an
outside personal trading account, except that of a product offered by the Firm, such as participation
in a separately managed account or pooled investment vehicle, a third-party managed separately
managed account, or such brokerage account that transacts exclusively in ETFs or mutual funds.
All employees receive a copy of the Code and provide a written acknowledgement of receipt and
understanding. Clients or prospective clients may obtain a copy of the Code by contacting the Firm
at (703) 628-1036.
From time to time, and consistent with a client’s investment objectives and subject to the
satisfaction of the policies and procedures set forth in the Code and in the Firm’s compliance
manual (“Compliance Manual”), the Firm may recommend that a client acquire or sell securities
in which a related person of the Firm has a pre-existing direct or indirect interest. A potential
conflict of interest could arise in that the interested related person of the Firm could benefit from
such a purchase or sale of the applicable security by a client. However, the Firm has policies and
procedures designed to identify and manage conflicts of interest to the extent they arise in
connection with such transactions. These procedures are further detailed in the Firm’s policies and
procedures. Certain terms of the Governing Documents and the equity participation of
Rockbridge’s related persons in the clients’ assets further mitigate such conflicts.
15
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
Rockbridge is authorized to determine the broker-dealer to be used for each securities transaction
for clients. Several factors are considered when Rockbridge has discretion to select the broker-
dealer used to execute transactions and determine the reasonableness of their compensation via
commissions. Such factors may include the size of the order, the broker-dealer’s execution
capability, commission rates, clearance and settlement capability, as well as the broker-dealer’s
provision of research and other brokerage services. On a periodic basis, as deemed reasonable by
the Firm, the Firm will review current commission rates, existing and new trading relationships,
and any changes in the trading environment.
Rockbridge will adhere to the “best execution” principle in executing securities transactions. While
not currently in place, Rockbridge retains the right to enter into commission sharing agreements
to allow a portion of the brokerage commissions generated by clients to be used to purchase
research and other services within the confines of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, which is a “safe harbor” that permits an investment manager to use commissions
or “soft dollars” to obtain research and brokerage services that provide lawful and appropriate
assistance in the investment decision-making process. Except for services that would be a client
expense, the Firm will limit the use of “soft dollars” to obtain research and brokerage services to
services which constitute research and brokerage within the meaning of Section 28(e). Research
services within Section 28(e) may include, but are not limited to, research reports (including
market research); certain financial newsletters and trade journals; software providing analysis of
securities portfolios; corporate governance research and rating services; attendance at certain
seminars and conferences; discussions with research analysts; meetings with corporate executives;
consultants’ advice on portfolio strategy; data services (including services providing market data,
company financial data and economic data); advice from brokers on order execution; and certain
proxy services. Brokerage services within Section 28(e) may include, but are not limited to,
services related to the execution, clearing and settlement of securities transactions and functions
incidental thereto (i.e., connectivity services between an investment manager and a broker-dealer
and other relevant parties such as custodians); trading software operated by a broker- dealer to route
orders; software that provides trade analytics and trading strategies; software used to transmit
orders; clearance and settlement in connection with a trade; electronic communication of allocation
instructions; routing settlement instructions; post-trade matching of trade information; and services
required by the SEC or a self-regulatory organization such as comparison services, electronic
confirms or trade affirmations.
The use of client commissions to obtain research or other products or services benefits the Firm,
as the Firm does not have to pay or produce for the research, products, or services. As a result, an
inherent conflict of interest may arise, as this creates an incentive for the Firm to select or
recommend a broker-dealer based on the research, products, and/or services that it obtains.
Research, products, and other services obtained through “soft dollars” may be used in servicing
any or all accounts and may be used in connection with accounts other than those that pay
commissions to the broker-dealer relating to the research or other service arrangements. There can
be no guarantee that a certain client will be the direct or indirect beneficiary of the research or
brokerage services obtained.
16
When appropriate, the Firm may, but is not required to, aggregate client orders to achieve more
efficient execution or to provide for equitable treatment among accounts. Clients participating in
aggregated trades will be allocated securities based on the average price achieved for such trades,
including when the Funds and separately managed accounts trade in aggregate.
When orders are not aggregated, trades generally will be processed in the order that they are placed
with the broker or counterparty selected by Rockbridge. As a result, certain trades in the same
security for one client (including a client in which Rockbridge and its personnel may have a direct
or indirect interest) may receive more or less favorable prices or terms than another client, and
orders may not be filled entirely or at all, based on market conditions.
17
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
Each client account is reviewed by the Firm on a periodic basis . The frequency of such review is determined
at the discretion of the Firm. The Firm reviews, amongst other things, client account performance, compliance
with account restrictions, and allocations of securities transactions. Detailed information regarding the
oversight and review of the client account is included in the Governing Documents.
18
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
No entity, other than clients, provides an economic benefit to the Firm for providing investment
advice or other advisory services to clients, unless otherwise disclosed in this Brochure and/or the
Governing Documents.
As of the date of this Brochure, neither Rockbridge nor any of its related persons compensates any
person who is not a supervised person for client or investor referrals.
19
Item 15 – Custody
Rockbridge is subject to Rule 206(4)-2 under the Advisers Act, also known as the “Custody Rule,”
which sets forth specific requirements relating to client securities or certain other assets over which
the Firm has actual or constructive custody. Client assets are held for safekeeping by an
independent qualified custodian.
For any Funds launched by the Firm, the Firm will ensure that the Fund is audited by an
independent auditor that is both registered with, and subject to regular inspection by, the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Furthermore, audited financial statements will be delivered to
the underlying investors within 120 days of each Fund’s fiscal year end.
Each client will receive or have electronic access to account statements from the broker-dealer,
bank or other qualified custodian. Most clients receive brokerage account statements on a periodic
basis, as determined by the broker-dealer, bank, or qualified custodian. Clients should carefully
review their brokerage account statements.
20
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Rockbridge provides investment advisory services on a discretionary basis. Additionally,
Rockbridge and the client enter into an investment management agreement that further establishes
the Firm’s discretionary authorities. Unless otherwise instructed or directed by a discretionary
client, such authority generally permits the Firm to determine, amongst other things, the securities
to be bought and sold for the client account, and the amount of securities to be bought or sold for
the client account.
21
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
As part of its services, Rockbridge will vote proxies on behalf of its clients. The Firm has a written
policy in place regarding the voting of proxies that is designed to ensure that the Firm fulfills its
fiduciary obligation to its clients. The policy is intended to address a range of common business
and social issues often contained in proxy statements. The Firm will handle items not specifically
addressed in the policy on a case-by-case basis. A copy of the Firm’s written policy with respect
to proxy voting is available upon request.
22
Item 18 – Financial Information
The Firm does not require or solicit prepayment of fees from any client in advance.
The Firm does not believe any financial conditions currently exist that are reasonably likely to
impair its ability to meet contractual or other commitments to clients.
The Firm has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten years.
23
