Brochure Summary

Overview

Our Firm’s History Weik Capital Management (Weik) was founded in Wyomissing, PA in 1987 by Thomas Weik to provide personalized portfolio management and advisory services to individuals and institutions. Our mission is to become the firm of choice in our region for portfolio management and advisory services through diligent adherence to our value-based investment philosophy that focuses on risk management as well as the attractive returns historically associated with investing in good businesses. We strive to provide value to our clients and enable them to meet their financial objectives and improve their lives. As a registered investment adviser, we are bound to the fiduciary standard which requires us to act in the best interests of our clients and obligates us to a duty of loyalty and care. Our Executive Team The principal owner and President of Weik is Thomas Weik. Mr. Weik also serves as the Chief Investment Officer. The three other officers of the firm are Warren Weik, Chief Operating Officer, Laura A. Novak, Chief Compliance Officer, and Kenneth Weik, Treasurer and Secretary. Our Philosophy Weik adheres to a value-based investment philosophy that has been derived through many years of independent study and reflection. Our philosophy has been influenced by our observations of a number of successful investors and business executives, particularly Warren Buffett. Our chief investment officer has closely observed Mr. Buffett’s approach for more than 40 years. As a result, our firm’s equity work focuses on purchasing stocks at a price that represents a discount to their underlying business value. This discount provides an investor a margin of safety as well as potential appreciation. We believe that investing in good businesses is an optimal way to accumulate capital. We seek the superior returns that stocks can offer our clients when consistent with each client’s individual objectives and risk tolerance. While we typically seek substantial appreciation from the equities we select, we are content to realize this potential over a period of years. For clients seeking income as well as growth, we manage balanced portfolios that contain a conservatively structured fixed-income segment. Our balanced portfolio risk exposure is therefore primarily focused on the equity portion of the portfolio. Our Services Weik provides professional investment management services to its clients on a discretionary basis; provided, however, that at the client's request we may agree that certain assets m a y b e held in the client's account on a non-discretionary basis with respect to which Weik will provide investment advisory services (including, but not necessarily limited to, ( 1 ) assets originally acquired by Weik on a discretionary basis based on Weik's research and analysis but which the client subsequently instructs Weik not to sell without prior authorization; (2) assets that the client previously held elsewhere and has transitioned to Weik with instructions that they not be sold without the client’s prior authorization; and/or (3) assets acquired in the account at the client's direction with similar instructions). With respect to both Discretionary and Non- Discretionary Assets, Weik generally provides a substantially equivalent level of service (including, but not necessarily limited to, monitoring and making recommendations with respect to the positions, considering them in advising the client’s overall portfolio, including them in performance and other reporting, etc.), the primary difference being that no transactions will be effected in connection with the Non-Discretionary Assets without the client’s prior authorization. References in this Brochure to the "Account," the "Portfolio," and the "Portfolio Value" should be read to refer in the aggregate to both Discretionary and Non-Discretionary Assets.1 We do not provide financial planning services, brokerage or tax advice. Our approach at Weik is to discuss with each client their circumstances and objectives, and then formulate 1 Cash reserves in the client’s portfolio are also included in portfolio value for all purposes, including calculation of fees. See additional information below. an asset allocation plan for consideration. After any revisions, a final plan is agreed upon. Joint discussions would determine the portfolio structure, including allocation ranges for equity and fixed income. Specific targets within the agreed upon allocation ranges are generally determined by Weik based upon market conditions. Clients are requested to notify us of any significant changes in their circumstances so that we may adjust our guidelines as appropriate. Types of Investments Investing in individual stocks is a primary interest of Weik. Portfolios are generally diversified to include a selection of holdings in industries that we find
attractive. At times, there may be a concentration of assets in a particular company or industry. This may be due to market appreciation of the holding and our decision to retain the holding based on the fundamentals of the company and a risk/reward analysis. Equity mutual funds and/or equity ETFs/ETNs may be employed for a client’s portfolio based upon the amount of assets, the individual objectives of the client, and the need for further diversification. These instruments are often used to invest in international markets and, to a lesser extent, alternative investments. Equity investments are combined with fixed-income securities in balanced portfolios. These portfolios may employ U.S. Treasuries, government agencies, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, CDs, fixed-income funds, money market instruments, or other income securities. Individual fixed-income holdings will typically be of investment grade at the time of purchase and generally have a maturity of two to seven years. Our approach to fixed-income management and advice is essentially, but not entirely, passive. For qualified clients, Weik may recommend investing their assets in one of our limited partnerships. These partnerships invest primarily in individual equities. Further details on these partnerships are provided in Item 7. Personalized Management and Advice Our client accounts are generally advised in agreement with the investment guidelines that are established at the onset of client’s relationship with Weik. When clients contribute securities to their account, we review them in consideration of their investment objectives and may transition them in accordance with the client’s portfolio plan. If a client requests a security not be sold without client permission, the security will be designated as “non- discretionary” and will be included in quarterly fee calculations. Clients may request reasonable restrictions on investments held in their portfolios at Weik in a particular company, industry, sector of the market, or type of security. Although Weik strongly prefers to manage portfolios with complete discretion (except as otherwise noted herein), these requests will be considered to a limited extent, with consideration given to whether the requested restrictions are reasonable and would not unduly interfere with our ability to provide the advisory services necessary to facilitate achievement of the client's goals. If it is determined that a client-requested restriction cannot be accommodated, the client will be notified so as to have the opportunity to modify the requested restriction or consider other investment options. Clients typically have a variety of options to withdraw cash, including check-writing privileges, automated monthly disbursements, and automated deposits into their bank accounts. IRA Rollover Recommendations Effective December 20, 2021 (or such late date as the US Department of Labor (“DOL”) Field Assistance Bulletin 2018-02 ceases to be in effect), for our purpose of complying with the DOL’s Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2020-02 (“PTE 2020-02”) where applicable, Weik is providing the following acknowledgement. When Weik provides investment advice to a prospect or client regarding a retirement plan account or individual retirement account, we are acting as fiduciaries within the meaning of Title 1 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. It is to be noted that there are some conflicts with a prospect or client’s interests and the way Weik makes money. Weik operates under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interests ahead of yours. Under this special rule’s provisions, we must:
• Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations (give prudent advice);
• Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations (give loyal advice);
• Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees, and investments;
• Follow policies and procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best interest;
• Charge no more than is reasonable for our services; and
• Give you basic information about conflicts of interest. Weik benefits financially from the rollover of assets from a retirement account, or an existing IRA to an account that we manage because the assets increase our assets under management/advisement which, in turn, increases our advisory fees. As a fiduciary, Weik will only recommend a rollover when we believe it is in a prospect or client’s best interest. Assets Under Management/Advisement As of December 31, 2023, Weik had approximately $277,644,000 in assets under management. Of this amount, $254,154,000 is discretionary and $23,490,000 is advised on a non-discretionary basis.
