**IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE <br> ANNUAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON MAY 14, 2026**

Pursuant to the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**SEC**"), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "**E-Proxy Notice**") to our stockholders of record as of March 20, 2026. We anticipate that the E-Proxy Notice will be sent, and a full set of proxy materials relating to our Meeting will be made available, to our stockholders commencing on or about April 1, 2026. Upon receipt of the E-Proxy Notice, stockholders may choose to request a printed copy of proxy materials at no charge. If you received an E-Proxy Notice, you will not receive any other proxy materials by mail unless you request a paper or electronic copy of the proxy materials. To request that a full set of the proxy materials be sent to your specified postal or email address, please call 1-813-235-4490 or send an email to inbox@cleartrusttransfer.com no later than April 30, 2026, and include your control number.

The E-Proxy Notice provides that (i) the stockholder may access the notice of annual meeting of stockholder, this proxy statement, the Company's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2025, additional solicitation materials (if any) and other proxy materials and amendments to these materials online at www.cleartrustonline.com/cwd; and (ii) stockholders may also request to receive a paper copy of the proxy materials by calling 1-813-235-4490 or sending an email to inbox@cleartrusttransfer.com prior to April 30, 2026, and including your control number.

The E-Proxy Notice also identifies the date, the time and details regarding the Annual Meeting; the matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting and the Board's recommendation with regard to each matter.

**Frequently Asked Questions About the Annual Meeting and Voting**

**1.** **Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?** 

Holders of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("**Class A Common Stock**"), and holders of our Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("**Class B Common Stock**" and with the Class A Common Stock, the "**Common Stock**") as of March 20, 2026 (the "**Record Date**") are entitled to receive the Notice of Annual Meeting and to vote their shares at the Meeting.

Holders of Class A Common Stock as of the Record Date are entitled to one (1) vote per share on each matter that is submitted to stockholders for approval. Holders of Class B Common Stock as of the Record Date are entitled to ten (10) votes per share on each matter that is submitted to stockholders for approval. The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common stock vote together as a single class.

**2.** **How many shares of Common Stock are "outstanding"?** 

As of March 20, 2026, there were 6,682,240 shares of Class A Common Stock and 370,822 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

**3.** **What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?** 

If your shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent, ClearTrust LLC, you are the "stockholder of record" of those shares. The E-Proxy Notice has been provided directly to you by CaliberCos Inc.

If your shares are held through a broker, bank or other holder of record, you hold your shares in "street name" and are considered the "beneficial owner" of those shares. The E-Proxy Notice has been provided to you by your broker, bank or other holder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other holder of record how to vote your shares by using the voting instruction card or by following their instructions for voting. Absent instructions from you, under applicable regulatory requirements, your broker may vote your shares on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, but may not vote your shares on the election of directors, or any other proposal that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

**4.** **Are proxy materials available on the Internet?** 

Yes. As permitted by SEC rules, we have elected to furnish proxy materials, including the notice of Annual Meeting, this proxy statement and our Annual Report, to our stockholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. Accordingly, most stockholders will not receive printed copies of our proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, the E-Proxy Notice, which was mailed to all of our stockholders, will explain how you may access and review all of the proxy materials electronically. The E-Proxy Notice also explains how you may submit your proxy, including over the Internet or by telephone or email. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the E-Proxy Notice.

**5.** **How do I vote?** 

You may vote using any of the following methods:

**On the Internet**

The Company has established Internet voting procedures for stockholders of record. These procedures are designed to authenticate your identity, to allow you to give your voting instructions and to confirm that those instructions have been properly recorded. Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 13, 2026.

The availability of Internet voting for beneficial owners will depend on the voting processes of your broker, bank or other holder of record. We therefore recommend that you follow the voting instructions in the materials you receive.

The website for internet voting by record holders is www.cleartrustonline.com/cwd. You must enter your 12-digit control code to navigate the secure portal. If you vote on the Internet, you also can request electronic delivery of future proxy materials.

**By Attending the Annual Meeting in Virtual Meeting Format**

You may attend the Annual Meeting and vote during the meeting at www.cleartrustonline.com/cwd. You must enter your 12-digit control code to navigate the secure portal.

**By Email**

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by email to inbox@cleartrusttransfer.com. You must have your 12-digit control code found on your Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials.

**By Telephone**

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by calling 813-235-4490. You must have your 12-digit control code found on your Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials.

**By Mail**

If you requested and received printed proxy materials, you can vote by written proxy card. Complete, sign and date the accompanying proxy or voting instruction card and return it in the prepaid envelope. If you are a stockholder of record and return your signed proxy card but do not indicate your voting preferences, the proxy holders named in the proxy card will vote the shares represented by your proxy card as recommended by the Board of Directors.

Your vote is important. Please complete your vote using one of the voting methods above to ensure that your vote is received timely.

**6.** **What can I do if I change my mind after I vote?** 

If you are a stockholder of record, you can revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

● giving written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Company;

● delivering a valid, later-dated proxy by mail, or a later-dated vote on the Internet, by email, or by telephone in a timely manner; or

● voting on the Internet at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or other holder of record.

All shares for which proxies have been properly submitted and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting.

**7.** **How will your proxy vote your shares?** 

Your proxy will vote according to your instructions. If you request printed proxy materials, vote by mail and complete, sign, and return the proxy card provided by us but do not indicate your vote, your proxy will vote "FOR" each of the director nominees, and "FOR" ratification of the appointment of Urish Popeck & Co., LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The Board does not intend to bring any other matter for a vote at the Annual Meeting, and neither we nor the Board know of anyone else who intends to do so. However, on any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting, your proxies are authorized to vote on your behalf using their best judgment.

**8.** **Where can you find the voting results?** 

We intend to announce the preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and will publish the final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we will file with the SEC no later than four business days following the Annual Meeting. If the final voting results are unavailable in time to file a current report on Form 8-K with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to disclose the preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known, will file an additional current report on Form 8-K with the SEC to disclose the final voting results.

**9.** **What is a broker non-vote?** 

If you are a beneficial owner whose shares are held of record by a broker, you must instruct the broker how to vote your shares. Brokers, banks, or other agents that have not received voting instructions from their clients cannot vote on their clients' behalf with respect to proposals that are not "routine" but may vote their clients' shares on "routine" proposals. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that proposal and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

If you are a beneficial owner whose shares are held of record by a broker, your broker has discretionary voting authority to vote your shares on the ratification of Urish Popeck & Co., LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm, even if the broker does not receive voting instructions from you. However, your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on the election of directors, or any other proposal properly brought before the Annual Meeting, in which case a broker non-vote will occur, and your shares will not be voted on these matters.

Broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal One. Because Proposal Two is considered to be routine, if you hold your shares in street name, your broker, bank or other agent may vote your shares on this proposal in its discretion, even if you do not provide voting instructions.

**10.** **What is a quorum for the Annual Meeting?** 

The presence of the holders of shares of Common Stock representing a 33 1/3% in voting power of the shares of the Company entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum.

**11.** **What are the voting requirements to elect the directors and to approve each of the proposals discussed in this Proxy Statement?** 

**Election of Directors**

You may vote "FOR" any or all of the nominees or you may "WITHHOLD" your vote as to any or all of the nominees. Directors are elected by the affirmative vote of a plurality of all votes present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present. This means that the shares voted for a nominee must exceed the votes withheld for a nominee's election. If stockholders do not specify the manner in which their shares represented by a validly executed proxy solicited by the Board of Directors are to be voted on this proposal, such shares will be voted in favor of the nominees. If you hold your shares in "street name" and you do not instruct your broker how to vote in the election of directors a broker non-vote will occur and no votes will be cast on your behalf. It is therefore critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count in the election of directors. Withheld votes will be excluded from the vote and have no effect on the outcome. Broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote although they will be considered present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

**Ratification of Urish Popeck & Co., LLC as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is required to approve the ratification of Urish Popeck & Co., LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm. If you hold your shares in street name, your broker, bank or other agent may vote your shares on this proposal in its discretion, even if you do not provide voting instructions. Abstentions will be considered present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum but will be counted as votes cast and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

**12.** **Could other matters be decided the Annual Meeting?** 

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, we do not know of any matters to be presented at the Annual Meeting, other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement.

If you request and receive printed proxy materials and you return your signed and completed proxy card by mail or vote on the Internet or by telephone or email and other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration, the individuals named as proxies on the proxy card will have the discretion to vote on your behalf.

**13.** **Who will pay for the costs of the Annual Meeting and this proxy solicitation?** 

The Company will pay the costs associated with the Annual Meeting and solicitation of proxies, including the costs of transmitting the proxy materials and E-Proxy Notices. In addition to solicitation by mail, our directors, officers and regular employees (who will not be specifically compensated for such services) may solicit proxies. Arrangements will be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward proxies, proxy materials and E-Proxy Notices to their principals, and we will reimburse them for their expenses. We have not retained a soliciting agent to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

**14.** **Do the Executive Officers and Directors have any interest in the matters to be decided at this Annual Meeting?** 

None of the Company's executive officers or directors has any interest in any of the matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, except with respect to each director, to the extent that a director is named as a nominee for election to the Board of Directors.

**15.** **What is "Householding"?** 

"Householding" is a program, approved by the SEC, which allows companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports by delivering only one package of stockholder proxy materials or a single E-Proxy Notice to any household at which two or more stockholders reside. If you and other residents at your mailing address own shares of our common stock in "street name," your broker or bank may have notified you that your household will receive only one copy of our proxy materials or a single E-Proxy Notice. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be "householding" materials to your address, "householding" will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement or a single E-Proxy Notice, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy statement or multiple E-Proxy Notices and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account. If you hold shares of our common stock in your own name as a holder of record, "householding" will not apply to your shares.

**MATTERS TO COME BEFORE THE ANNUAL MEETING**

**PROPOSAL ONE**

**Election of Directors**

**Nominees**

At the Annual Meeting, five directors, who have been nominated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, are to be elected, each to hold office (subject to our Bylaws) until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified. All of the nominees for director currently serve as directors, except Jerome Alan Reid, Jr. If elected, his term will begin as of the date of the Annual Meeting. No proxy may vote for more than five nominees for director.

Each nominee has consented to being named as a nominee in this Proxy Statement and to serve, if elected. If any nominee listed in the table below should become unavailable for any reason, which the Board does not anticipate, the proxy will be voted for any substitute nominee or nominees who may be selected by the Board prior to or at the Annual Meeting, or, if no substitute is selected by the Board prior to or at the Annual Meeting, for a motion to reduce the membership of the Board to the number of nominees available. The five nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative "FOR" votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected. The information concerning the nominees and their security holdings has been furnished by them to us.

Directors are nominated by our Board, based on the recommendations of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. As discussed elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, in evaluating director nominees, the Nominating Committee considers characteristics that include, among others, integrity, business experience, financial acumen, leadership abilities, familiarity with our businesses and businesses similar or analogous to ours, and the extent to which a candidate's knowledge, skills, background and experience are already represented by other members of our Board.

The following table sets forth the names and ages of our director nominees:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Age** | **Title** |
| John C. "Chris" Loeffler, II | 41 | Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board |
| Jennifer Schrader | 44 | President and Vice-Chairperson |
| William J. Gerber | 68 | Director |
| Lawrence X. Taylor III | 61 | Director |
| Jerome Alan Reid, Jr. | 63 | Director |

---

Listed below are our director nominees' biographies.

*John C. "Chris" Loeffler, II.* Mr. Loeffler has served as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Caliber's Board of Directors since its inception. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Loeffler directs and executes the global strategy, oversees investments and fund management, and contributes to private and public capital formation.

We believe Mr. Reid's extensive experience in asset management, real estate investment oversight, capital markets, regulatory matters and corporate governance, along with his leadership of multi-billion-dollar investment platforms, qualifies him to serve on our Board.

**Vote Required; Board of Directors Recommendation**

You may vote in favor of any or all of the nominees or you may also withhold your vote as to any or all of the nominees. The affirmative vote of a plurality of all of the votes present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary for the election of the directors, assuming a quorum is present. "Plurality" means that the nominees receiving the largest number of votes cast are elected as directors up to the maximum number of directors to be elected at the meeting. If stockholders do not specify the manner in which their shares represented by a validly executed proxy solicited by the Board of Directors are to be voted on this proposal, such shares will be voted in favor of the nominees. If you hold your shares in "street name" and you do not instruct your broker how to vote in the election of directors, a broker non-vote will occur, and no votes will be cast on your behalf. It is therefore critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count in the election of directors. Withheld votes will be excluded entirely from the vote and will have no effect on the outcome. Broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote although they will be considered present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE**

**FOR THE ELECTION OF EACH NOMINEE UNDER PROPOSAL ONE**

**PROPOSAL TWO**

**Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The Audit Committee has appointed Urish Popeck & Co., LLC ("Urish Popeck") to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm and to audit our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. On September 25, 2025, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Urish Popeck as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and related interim period, and the concurrent dismissal of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as our independent auditors. Deloitte had served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2020.

The audit reports of Deloitte on the Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. The audit report for the year ended December 31, 2024, had been prepared assuming that the Company would continue as a going concern and included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern as result of its negative operating cash flows and the Company's lack of resources to satisfy debt maturities. Furthermore, during the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and the subsequent interim period through September 25, 2025, there were no disagreements with Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused it to make a reference in connection with its opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement or reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Concurrent with Deloitte's dismissal, the Company engaged Urish Popek on September 25, 2025, as its new independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. This decision was approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with the authority of the Audit Committee as specified in its Charter. Urish Popeck has served as the auditor for the Company since September 25, 2025. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through September 25, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Urish Popeck regarding (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Urish Popeck concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (b) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection of Urish Popeck as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Urish Popeck to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders' views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event that our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be considered as a direction to the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. The Company anticipates that a representative of Urish Popeck will attend the Annual Meeting. If the Urish Popeck representative attends the Annual Meeting, he or she will have an opportunity to make a statement and to respond to appropriate stockholder questions.

**Vote Required**

The affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is required to approve the ratification of Urish Popeck as our independent registered public accounting firm. If stockholders do not specify the manner in which their shares represented by a validly executed proxy solicited by the Board are to be voted on this proposal, such shares will be voted in favor of the appointment of Urish Popeck as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions will be counted as votes against the proposal and will be considered present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Because this proposal is considered to be routine, if you hold your shares in street name, your broker, bank or other agent may vote your shares on this Proposal Two in its discretion, even if you do not provide voting instructions.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF URISH POPECK AS OUR<br> INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2026**

**Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Our Audit Committee is responsible for approving or pre-approving all auditing services (including comfort letters and statutory audits) and all permitted non-audit services by the independent auditor and preapprove the related fees. Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee delegated to each of its members, acting singly, the authority to pre-approve any audit services if the need for consideration of a pre-approval request arises between regularly scheduled meetings, with such approval presented to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting or as soon as practicable thereafter.

All audit and audit-related services performed by our principal accountant during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the fees described in the table below were pre-approved by our Audit Committee.

---

Also includes $132,986 in fees related to the re-audit of our 2024 annual financial statements.

<sup>(2)</sup> Audit related fees include fees paid during 2025 for annual audits of real estate investment funds managed by the Company that require annual audits.

**INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS**

**Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight**

Our Board of Directors does not have a policy on whether or not the role of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman should be separate or, if it is to be separate, whether the Chairman should be selected from the non-employee directors or be an employee. Currently, we operate with Mr. Loeffler serving as our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer. We currently believe that Mr. Loeffler serving in both capacities best serves the Company and suits the talents, expertise and experience that Mr. Loeffler brings to the Company.

The Board as a whole is responsible for consideration and oversight of the risks we face and is responsible for ensuring that material risks are identified and managed appropriately. Certain risks are overseen by committees of the Board and these committees make reports to the full Board, including reports on noteworthy risk-management issues. Members of the Company's senior management team regularly report to the full Board about their areas of responsibility and a component of these reports is the risks within their areas of responsibility and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. Additional review or reporting on risks is conducted as needed or as requested by the Board or one of its committees.

**Board Independence**

We are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("**NASDAQ**") and accordingly, we have applied NASDAQ listing standards in determining the "independence" of the members of our Board. In addition, we are subject to the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ relating to the membership, qualifications, and operations of the Audit Committee, as discussed below. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also evaluates the composition of the Board as a whole and each of its committees to ensure the Company's on-going compliance with NASDAQ independence standards. Based on the NASDAQ listing standards and SEC rules and after reviewing the relationships with members of our Board, our Board, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, has determined that each of William J. Gerber, Lawrence X. Taylor III, and Jerome Alan Reid, Jr., qualifies as an independent director.

While the Company is a "controlled company" as defined under the NASDAQ rules and thus is entitled to an exemption from the majority independence rule, the Company has not elected this exemption for its 2025 election of directors but reserves the right to claim this exemption in the future.

**Director Compensation**

The following table sets forth all compensation paid to or earned by each non-employee director of the Company during fiscal year December 31, 2025:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Fees <br> Earned or <br> Paid<br> in Cash ($)<sup>(1)</sup>** | **Option<br> Awards ($)** | **Stock<br> Awards ($)** | **Total ($)** |
| William J. Gerber | $75000 | $75000 | $– $| 150000 |
| Michael Trzupek<sup>(2)</sup> | $75000 | $75000 | $– $| 150000 |
| Daniel P. Hansen<sup>(3)</sup> | $75000 | $75000 | $– $| 150000 |
| Lawrence X. Taylor III | $87500 | $75000 | $– $| 162500 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The amounts listed in this column represent the retainer paid to each director for their service on the Board and any committees on which they served during 2025.

<sup>(2)</sup> Mr. Trzupek is not standing for election at the Annual Meeting.

<sup>(3)</sup> Mr. Hansen is not standing for election at the Annual Meeting.

Our non-employee director compensation is comprised of cash compensation and option awards. Further, we reimburse all of our non-employee directors for their reasonable expenses incurred in attending Board and committee meetings.

The Board believes that a significant portion of director compensation should align director interests with the long-term interests of stockholders. The Board makes changes in its director compensation practices only upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and discussion and approval by the Board.

Our Board, following the Compensation Committee's recommendation, has approved the compensation of our non-employee directors, as described below. The Compensation Committee believes that our non-employee director compensation remains aligned with director compensation practices at our peer companies while considering the ongoing cash constraints of the Company.

For 2025, our non-employee directors, annual compensation consisted of $312,500 in cash.

During fiscal 2025, our Board held four meetings and the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee each held four meetings. During the period for which a person served as a director, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings held by the Board and the total number of meetings held by those committees of the Board on which such director served.

The Company's policy is to encourage, but not require, Board members to attend annual stockholder meetings.

**Committees and Membership**

We maintain the following committees of the Board: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each committee is comprised entirely of directors who are "independent" within the meaning of the rules of NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2) and all applicable SEC rules and regulations. Each committee acts pursuant to a separate written charter, and each such charter has been adopted and approved by the Board.

Taylor III, each of whom is independent pursuant to the Director Independence Standards of NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations applicable to audit committees.

Messrs. Trzupek and Hansen are not standing for election at the Annual Meeting and will no longer be members of the Audit Committee as of the Annual Meeting.

Each member of our Audit Committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with applicable requirements.

None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board or Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee Charter is available on our website (https://ir.caliberco.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents).

**The Director Nomination Process**

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers nominees from all sources, including stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the authority to lead the search for individuals qualified to become members of the Company's Board and to select or recommend to the Board director nominees to be presented for stockholder approval. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may use its network of contacts to compile a list of potential candidates, but may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends individuals to our Board based on a variety of factors, including the criteria set forth below. Nominees to our Board are expected to possess fundamental qualities of intelligence, integrity, ethics, and accountability; have proven achievements and competence in their fields; and have a background that demonstrates an understanding of business, real estate, and financial affairs. Nominees must be willing and able to spend the time required to effectively fulfill duties as a director and collaborate with other directors and the executives of the Company. Members of our Board are expected to be committed to the success of the Company, to think critically and independently, and to be willing to communicate in a constructive manner.

Directors are selected on the basis of qualifications and experience. Factors in the selection process may include expertise, business experience, knowledge regarding real estate, finance, marketing, financial reporting, cybersecurity, or management. A nominee's ability to meet the independence criteria established by the NASDAQ or NYSE is also a factor in the selection process. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for the Board that are recommended by stockholders so long as the recommendations comply with our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, our Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended, Corporate Governance Guidelines, the nominee criteria described above, and applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC and NASDAQ.

**Stockholder Communications**

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers, and the persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our Common Stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC.

| Ignacio Martinez<sup>(4)</sup> | $325000 | 125% | $406250 | $250000 | $981250 |

<sup>(1)</sup> Bonuses are discretionary, will be dependent on both individual and company performance and will be issued following the close of each year. The amounts listed under Maximum Bonus ($) are target totals assuming the Named Executive Officer achieves his/her designated goals and expected outcomes in the annual plan.

<sup>(2)</sup> The LTI will be payable in the form of RSU's from the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, subject to vesting further to the provisions in the plan. The calculation of total shares to issue for the year will be completed annually as of the first business day each year and the corresponding share price average for the preceding 20 trading days, or as otherwise agreed upon by the Board of Directors.

<sup>(3)</sup> Greg James was appointed Chief Operating Officer on July 7, 2025, and in connection therewith determined to be a Named Executive Officer.

<sup>(4)</sup> The Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Martinez dated May 25, 2023, which was for an indefinite term until terminated. The Employment Agreement was terminated on July 7, 2025. Mr. Martinez's annual base salary was $325,000, and he was eligible to receive an annual bonus based on performance of up to 125% of his base compensation and long-term incentives via the Company's 2024 Incentive Stock Plan.

Other than the employment arrangements described above, we have not entered into any arrangements providing for payments or benefits in connection with the resignation, severance, retirement or other termination of any of our named executive officers, changes in their compensation or a change in control.

In general, Caliber's pay philosophy with respect to its Named Executive Officers is to target at or about the market median of peer group companies for a Named Executive Officer's total compensation, with actual compensation varying based on performance and tenure.

Caliber makes such compensation decisions for the Named Executive Officers based on:

● The Company's strategic and human resources objectives;

● Competitive data for peer group companies and for a broader group of asset management firms;

● Corporate and individual performance on key initiatives;

● Corporate performance compared to our competitors;

● Economic conditions;

● Advice of outside executive compensation consultants and that of our Advisory Board; and

● How the elements of compensation contribute to and interrelate to total compensation.

The peer group of companies was compiled by an unaffiliated compensation consultant's study. The compensation consultant recommends an appropriate peer group of public, similarly sized, asset management companies, considering the Company's and the competitors' strategy, mix of business and size, as measured primarily by annual revenues, market capitalization and total assets. These companies are the major competitors in one or more of the Company's businesses, but none represent the exact business mix of the Company. Caliber strives to target compensation for the Named Executive Officers at the median of the compensation of the named executive officers at the peer group companies.

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-In-Control**

The Employment Agreements, and the employment arrangements approved in 2022, provide for severance benefits upon a termination of employment under certain circumstances. For a discussion regarding the benefits see "*Employment Agreements*."

**Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation**

The Board adopted a clawback policy (the "Clawback Policy") effective as of May 15, 2023. The Clawback Policy, which is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, applies to current and former executive officers of the Company (each an "Covered Person"). In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial results as a result of a material noncompliance by the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, the Company will have the right to use reasonable efforts to recover from any Covered Person who received incentive compensation (whether cash or equity) from the Company during the three-year period preceding the date on which the Company was required to prepare the accounting restatement, any excess incentive compensation awarded as a result of the misstatement. As of December 31, 2024, there have been no Restatements that would require recovery of erroneously awarded compensation under the Clawback Policy.

**Equity Incentive Plans**

**2017 Incentive Stock Plan**

 ****

We currently have adopted the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan, as amended and restated in December 2021 (the "2017 Plan"). The 2017 Plan remains in place for governance of awards made prior to adoption of our 2024 Equity Incentive Plan in 2024, however, no new awards may be made under the 2017 Plan.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, options representing 94,417 and 135,902 shares, respectively, have been awarded and are outstanding under the 2017 Plan. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, restricted stock units representing 294,579and 356,106 shares have been awarded and are outstanding under the 2017 Plan, respectively.

***2024 Incentive Stock Plan***

 ****

We have adopted a 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the "2024 Plan"). The 2024 Plan administrator may grant awards to any employee, director, consultant or other person providing services to us or our affiliates.

As of December 31, 2025, there were approximately 6,372 shares of Class A Common Stock remaining available for issuance under the 2024 Plan out of a total of 200,000 shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder.

**TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS**

**Business Segments**

 ****

The Company operates through one reportable segment, its asset management platform, which it refers to simply as "Platform". The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the Company's Chief Executive Officer, John C. Loeffler. The Company's CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on the results of Platform operations.

The Company's CODM assesses revenue, operating expenses and key operating statistics to evaluate performance and allocate resources on a basis that eliminates the impact of the consolidated funds (intercompany eliminations required by U.S. GAAP) and noncontrolling interests. Platform payroll and payroll related costs were $12.2 million and $17.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Management concluded that the consolidated funds do not meet the requirements in ASC 280, Segment Reporting, of operating segments, as the Company's CODM does not review, nor is he provided with the operating results of these consolidated funds for the purposes of allocating resources, assessing performance or determining whether additional investments or advances will be made to these funds. The consolidated funds are consolidated based on the requirement in ASC 810, Consolidation, as the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary of each of these variable interest entities since the Company has the power to direct the activities of the entities and the right to absorb losses, generally in the form of guarantees of indebtedness that are significant to the individual investment funds.

The following describes revenue recognition for the fees the Company earns from providing services under its Platform:

Fund set-up fees are a one-time fee for the initial formation, administration, and set-up of the private equity real estate fund. These fees are recognized at the point in time when the performance under the contract is complete and are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Fund set-up fees replaced fund formation fees that are earned at a point in time at a fixed rate based on the amount of capital raised into certain managed funds.

Fund management fees are generally based on 1.0% to 1.5% of the unreturned capital contributions in a particular fund and include reimbursement for costs incurred on behalf of the fund, including an allocation of certain overhead costs. These customer contracts require the Company to provide management services, representing a performance obligation that the Company satisfies over time. With respect to Caliber Hospitality Trust, the Company earns a fund management fee of 0.70% of Caliber Hospitality Trust's enterprise value and is reimbursed for certain costs incurred on behalf of Caliber Hospitality Trust. These revenues are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Financing fees are earned for services the Company performs in securing third-party financing on behalf of our private equity real estate funds. These fees are recognized at the point in time when the performance under the contract is complete, which is essentially upon closing of a loan. In addition, the Company earns fees for guaranteeing certain loans, representing a performance obligation that the Company satisfies over time. These revenues are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Development and construction revenues from contracts with customers include fixed fee arrangements with related party affiliates to provide real estate development services as their principal developer, which include managing and supervising third-party developers and general contractors with respect to the development of the properties owned by the funds. Revenues are generally based on 4.0% of the total expected costs of the development or 4.0% of the total expected costs of the construction project. Prior to the commencement of construction, development fee revenue is recognized at a point in time as the related performance obligations are satisfied and the customer obtains control of the promised service, including negotiation, due diligence, entitlements, planning, and design activities. During the construction period, development fee revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. These revenues are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Brokerage fees are earned at a point in time at fixed rates for services performed related to acquisitions, dispositions, leasing, and financing transactions, and are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Performance allocations are an arrangement in which the Company is entitled to an allocation of investment returns, generated within the investment funds which we manage, based on a contractual formula. The Company typically receives 15.0% to 35.0% of all cash distributions from (i) the operating cash flow of each fund, after payment to the related fund investors of any accumulated and unpaid priority preferred returns and repayment of preferred capital contributions; and (ii) the cash flow resulting from the sale or refinance of any real estate assets held by each fund, after payment to the related fund investors of any accumulated and unpaid priority preferred returns and repayment of initial preferred capital contributions. Our funds' preferred returns range from 6.0% to 12.0%, typically 6.0% for common equity or 10.0% to 12.0% for preferred equity, which does not participate in profits. Performance allocations are related to services which have been provided and are recognized when it is determined that they are no longer probable of significant reversal, which is generally satisfied when an underlying fund investment is realized or sold. These revenues are included in performance allocations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations

The table below shows the consolidated revenues earned for providing services under the Platform for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

● our directors and executive officers as a group; and

● each person or entity known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (by number or by voting power).

In accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws.

Applicable percentage ownership is based on 6,682,240 shares of Class A Common Stock and 370,822 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of such person, we deemed to be outstanding all shares subject to options held by the person that are currently exercisable, or exercisable or would vest based on service-based vesting conditions within 60 days of the Record Date. However, except as described above, we did not deem such shares outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o CaliberCos Inc., 8901 E. Mountain View Rd., Ste 150, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258.

\* Indicates ownership of less than 1%

<sup>(1)</sup> In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage of beneficial ownership of that person, shares of Common Stock underlying restricted stock units or options held by that person that are convertible or exercisable, as the case may be, within 60 days of the Record Date are included. Those shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

<sup>(2)</sup> Does not give effect to (i) the conversion of Class B Common Stock to Class A Common Stock, (ii) the conversion of convertible debt securities into Class A Common Stock, (iii) the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock into Class A Common Stock or (iv) the vesting of any issued and outstanding stock options or restricted stock units outstanding as of the date hereof under either the 2017 Plan or the 2024 Plan and excludes shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for future issuance pursuant to outstanding awards under our 2024 Plan. None of the named executive officers and directors or Donnie Schrader beneficially own any convertible debt securities. In addition, no holder of convertible debt would become a beneficial owner of 5% or more of the Company's Class A Common Stock should any such holder convert all convertible debt held by such holder within 60 days of the Record Date.

<sup>(3)</sup> Percentage total voting power represents voting power with respect to all shares of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, as a single class. Each holder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to ten votes per share of Class B Common Stock and each holder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share of Class A Common Stock on all matters submitted to our stockholders for a vote. The Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, except as may otherwise be required by law. The Class B Common Stock is convertible at any time by the holder into shares of Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis.

<sup>(4)</sup> Includes 20,752 fully vested restricted stock units ("RSUs") and 1,307 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date, which represent a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting. Class A Common Stock does not include shares of Class A Common Stock held by Jennifer Schrader's spouse Donnie Schrader. Ms. Schrader disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Class A Common Stock held by Donnie Schrader, except to the extent of her pecuniary interest, if any, therein. See also footnote 14.

<sup>(5)</sup> Includes 1,300 shares of Class A Common Stock, 20,752 fully vested RSUs, and 1,307 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date, which represent a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting. Class B Common Stock includes 88,950 shares held in The C LO 2021 Irrevocable Trust under agreement of which Mr. Loeffler is trustee.

<sup>(6)</sup> Includes 36,364 fully vested RSUs, 2.445 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date, which represent a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting, and 3,534 shares of Class A Common Stock held by Wave Investments LLC of which Mr. Bade is the sole manager.

<sup>(7)</sup> Includes 2,973 fully vested and exercisable stock options, 31,874 fully vested RSUs, and 2,194 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date, which represent a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting.

<sup>(8)</sup> Includes 651 shares of Class A Common Stock and 17,632 fully vested and exercisable stock options.

<sup>(9)</sup> Includes 554 shares of Class A Common Stock and 17,632 fully vested and exercisable stock options.

<sup>(10)</sup> Includes 5,452 shares of Class A Common Stock and 16,888 fully vested and exercisable stock options.

<sup>(11)</sup> Includes 2,847 fully vested and exercisable stock options, 11,389 fully vested RSUs, 1,339 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date, which represent a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting, and 335 stock options exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date.

<sup>(12)</sup> Includes 75,193 fully vested stock options and options exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date and 8,592 RSUs vesting within 60 days of the Record Date.

<sup>(13)</sup> Includes 400 shares of Class A Common Stock and 16,886 fully vested and exercisable stock options.

<sup>(14)</sup> Based on information known to the Company and Mr. Schrader's Form 3 filed May 15, 2023. Does not include Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock held by Donnie Schrader's spouse Jennifer Schrader. Mr. Schrader disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock held by Jennifer Schrader, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest, if any, therein.

**AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT TO STOCKHOLDERS**

*Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC designed to improve disclosures related to the functioning of corporate audit committees and to enhance the reliability and credibility of financial statements of public companies, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors submits the following report:*

 

Management is responsible for the Company's accounting and financial reporting processes, including its internal control over financial reporting, and for preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements. Urish Popeck, the Company's independent auditor, is responsible for performing an audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and for expressing an opinion as to whether the Company's consolidated financial statements are fairly presented in all material respects in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In this context, the responsibility of the Audit Committee is to oversee the Company's accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and Urish Popeck the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Management and Urish Popeck represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Audit Committee also discussed with Urish Popeck the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Audit Committee received the written disclosures and a letter from Urish Popeck required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Urish Popeck's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Urish Popeck its independence.

Based on its discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and its review of the representations and information provided by management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited consolidated and combined financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Respectfully submitted,

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Lawrence X, Taylor III, Chairman

Michael Trzupek

William J. Gerber

Daniel P. Hansen

*The Report of the Audit Committee should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates the Report of the Audit Committee therein by reference.*

**STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS**

Stockholders wishing to include proposals in the proxy materials in relation to our 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must submit the same in writing, by mail, first-class postage pre-paid, to the Company's Corporate Secretary, which must be received at our executive office on or before November 30, 2026 (unless the date of next year's annual meeting is changed by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of this year's meeting, in which case the deadline will be a reasonable period of time prior to the date we begin to print and send our proxy materials for the annual meeting).

Our Board of Directors will review any stockholder proposals that are filed as required and, with the assistance of our Corporate Secretary, will determine whether such proposals meet the criteria prescribed by Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act for inclusion in our 2027 proxy solicitation materials or consideration at the 2027 Annual Meeting. If the stockholder does not also comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, we may exercise discretionary voting authority under proxies we solicit to vote in accordance with our best judgment on any such stockholder proposal or nomination.

To be eligible for consideration at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, any proposal that is a proper subject for consideration which has not been submitted by the deadline for inclusion in the proxy statement (as set forth above) and any nomination for director must comply with the procedures specified in our Bylaws. These procedures require, among other things, that any such proposal or nomination be received by the Corporate Secretary not later than the close of business on the 90th day, nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day in advance of the one year anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting of stockholders. For the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, a proposal must be received between December 31, 2026 and December 1, 2026. Any stockholder considering submitting a nominee or proposal for action at our 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is directed to the Company's Bylaws, which contain additional requirements as to submission of nominations for directors or proposals for stockholder action. Copies of the Bylaws may be obtained upon request to the Company's Corporate Secretary. Stockholder proposals or nominations must include the specified information concerning the stockholder and the proposal or nominee as described in our Bylaws.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under the Company's bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than March 15, 2027.

All submissions to, or requests of, the Corporate Secretary should be made to CaliberCos Inc., 8901 E. Mountain View Rd. Ste. 150, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258.

**OTHER MATTERS**

Our Board of Directors does not know of any matter to be brought before the Annual Meeting other than the matters set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and matters incident to the conduct of the Annual Meeting. If any other matter should properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy card will have discretionary authority to vote all proxies with respect thereto in accordance with their best judgment.

**ANNUAL REPORT**

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "**Annual Report**"), is available on our website *(https://ir.caliberco.com/sec-filings*).
