SOP 50 10 8 A.Ch2.A.3
3. Size Determinations under the EPC rule. If the EPC and the OC(s) are affiliated, the two companies are combined for determining size. i. If there is only one OC, use the OC’s NAICS code. ii. If there are multiple, unaffiliated OCs, use the NAICS code of the OC that generates the most revenue. Note: Each OC must be small based on its own NAICS code. iii. If the multiple OCs are affiliated, then use the rules detailed in 13 CFR § 121.107 for determining the primary industry of affiliated businesses. The NAICS Code of the primary industry of the OC shall be the identifying NAICS Code. If the EPC and the OC(s) are not affiliated, each entity must be small under the size requirement for its particular industry. The existence of a lease between the EPC and the OC(s) does not, in and of itself, create an affiliation, even if the EPC and OC(s) are Co-Borrowers. 4. When sending data to SBA, use the same NAICS Code that was used to determine size for the Applicant. 5. Submission of Financial Statements by the EPC and the OC(s): The EPC and each OC must submit Financial Statements. The OC’s statements are subject to tax verification. The regular requirement for an Aging of receivables and payables is waived for EPCs.
Operationalizing SBA SOP 50 10 8, A.Ch2.A.3 — Size Determinations under the EPC rule.
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
To work from the whole rulebook rather than this one page: download the corpus — every register on this site, verbatim, each with its source snapshot and effective date — then follow the methodology. It asks your assistant to answer only from the downloaded text, cite the register id and effective date it used, and tell you when the corpus does not cover something instead of filling the gap from memory. Running it locally also means no one sees which regulations you are looking at.
