Optimus Capital Advisors, LLC (hereinafter “OCA”) is a registered investment adviser based in
Coppell, TX. OCA has been offering advisory service since 2008. Mr. John Gesek, Jr. is the principal
owner of OCA.
The following paragraphs describe our services and fees. Each investment advisory service is listed
below and describes how we tailor our advisory services to your individual needs. Also, you may see
the term Associated Person throughout this Brochure. As used in this Brochure, this term refers to
anyone from our firm who is an officer, employee, and all individuals providing investment advice on
behalf of our firm. Where required, such persons are properly licensed or registered as investment
adviser representatives.
Financial Planning and Consulting Services
When a client requires assistance in setting or developing a plan to attain his or her financial goals,
the client may engage OCA to complete a comprehensive financial plan or may select specific
segments as appropriate.
A comprehensive plan would include segments on retirement, investments, cash flow, estate plan,
insurance, or college funding. OCA gathers required information through in-depth personal
interviews. Information gathered includes a client's current financial status, future goals, and
attitudes towards risk. Related documents supplied by the client are carefully reviewed and a written
report is prepared. Implementation of financial plan recommendations is entirely at the client's
discretion. Financial Planning recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service
offered by a broker-dealer or insurance company.
OCA’s advisory representatives may develop tax or estate plans for clients or refer clients to an
accountant or attorney, because OCA cannot provide tax advice, tax planning or legal services. The
scope of financial planning services to be completed on an hourly and /or flat fee basis is outlined in
an Addendum to the Client Agreement.
Clients can also receive investment advice on a more limited basis. This may include advice on only
an isolated area(s) of concern such as estate planning, retirement planning, reviewing a client's
existing portfolio, or any other specific topic. OCA also provides specific consultation and
administrative services regarding investment and financial concerns of the client.
Additionally, OCA provides advice on non-securities matters. Generally, this is in connection with the
rendering of estate planning, insurance, and/or annuity advice.
OCA also provides investment advice and consulting services to corporations and other business
entities in a variety of areas, including, but not limited to, cash flow planning, corporate
restructuring, and company benefits.
OCA may recommend investment in companies that it currently provides, or has previously provided,
consulting services and/or investment advice. As this may create a conflict of interest, any such
existing or past relationship is fully disclosed to clients.
Portfolio Management Services
Our firm offers discretionary portfolio management services to our clients. Discretionary portfolio
management means we will make investment decisions and place buy or sell orders in your account
without contacting you. These decisions would be made based upon your stated investment
objectives. Clients may limit our discretionary authority by, for example, setting a limit on the type of
securities that can be purchased for their account. Simply provide us with your restrictions or
guidelines in writing.
Our investment advice is tailored to meet our clients’ needs and investment objectives. If you decide
to hire our firm to manage your portfolio, we will meet with you to gather your financial information,
discuss your goals, and decide how much risk you should take in your investments. The information
we gather will help us implement an asset allocation strategy that will be specific to your goals,
whether we are actively investing for you or simply providing you with advice.
OCA primarily invests client assets in equity securities, mutual funds, exchange traded funds, U.S.
government bonds, municipal bonds, certificates of deposit, REITS (non-traded), private equity
partnerships and options.
However we construct your investment portfolio, we will monitor your portfolio’s performance on a
continuous basis, and rebalance the portfolio whenever necessary, as changes occur in market
conditions, your financial circumstances, or both.
Assets Under Management
As of February 23, 2024, we have approximately $129,112,437 in discretionary assets under
