DG Architects, Inc. Dga of Mountain View, California sponsors Dga 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, a 401(k) plan. Its Form 5500 for the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024 shows 200 participants (170 active) and $40.2M in net assets.
Net assets came to $201,236 per participant, well above the $60,185 median for defined contribution plans with 100 to 249 participants and well above the $73,951 median for defined contribution plans in professional, scientific and technical services. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
Schedule C lists 3 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $110K: $552 per participant, well above the same-size median of $194. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $110K. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $16.1M in 2017 to $40.2M in 2024 (up 150%), and participants from 151 to 200 (up 32%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was disclaimer, from an audit whose scope was limited under ERISA section 103(a)(3)(C) to exclude investment information certified by a bank or insurer.

Questions and answers
How big is Dga 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan?
200 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024, of whom 170 were active employees, with net assets of $40,247,209. Among defined contribution plans that places it in the 100 to 249 participants band, which held 21,996 plans in plan year 2024.
What does DG Architects, Inc. Dga contribute per participant?
This filing has no Schedule H financial statement, so employer contributions are not reported here.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $110,373 in compensation to service provider organisations, $552 per participant or 0.27% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $194 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $110,310. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is DG Architects, Inc. Dga. Recordkeeping or administration: Ascensus LLC and John Hancock Retirement Plan SVCS. Investment advisory or management: Commonwealth Financial Network. The financial statements were audited by Pricekubecka PLLC. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an disclaimer opinion from a limited-scope audit, in which the accountant did not audit investment information certified by a bank or insurance company. A disclaimer of opinion was the usual result of a limited-scope audit under the rules in force before 2021 and is not by itself a finding about the plan.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2024 to 31 Dec 2024, received by the Department of Labor on 23 Jul 2025. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
