**PART I**

**Item 1. Business**

**General**

Over the past 16 years, we have grown into a leading diversified alternative asset management firm, with more than $2.6 billion in Managed Assets, comprised of $0.8 billion of assets under management ("AUM") and $1.9 billion of assets under development ("AUD").

We are an alternative asset manager investing across real and digital assets. We sponsor and manage private real estate investment funds and maintain a digital asset treasury strategy focused on blockchain infrastructure assets. Our primary goal is to drive shareholder value by enhancing the wealth of accredited investor clients seeking to make investments in real and digital assets.

In 2025, we formally adopted a Board-approved digital asset treasury policy (the "Treasury Reserve Policy") under which we accumulate and manage digital infrastructure assets, starting with Chainlink tokens ("LINK"). The digital asset treasury strategy is designed to complement our core real estate investment platform by providing exposure to blockchain-based financial infrastructure and generating yield through staking activities. Digital asset treasury income may consist of staking rewards and other income derived from treasury digital asset holdings. While our real estate platform remains our core business, we believe exposure to digital infrastructure assets positions us for the long-term evolution of tokenized real-world asset markets.

For multi-family residential and multi-tenant industrial assets, we are regionally focused on growth-oriented markets, namely Arizona, Colorado and Texas. For our hospitality platform, we invest throughout the United States with a specific focus on markets that have experienced population and job growth in recent years.

Our competitive advantage is driven by several elements of our platform:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The combination of an institutional-grade investment management platform with boutique, middle-market fund sizes and real estate projects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our in-house shared services group, which offers greater operational control and visibility into investment opportunities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our in-house fundraising infrastructure, allowing us to serve a broad range of investors and institutions.

We define middle-market in two ways. First, by the size of investments. We typically pursue projects between $5.0 million and $50.0 million per asset. Second, by the size of the investment funds. We typically offer approximately $200.0 million for a multi-asset discretionary fund and $5.0 million to $20.0 million for a single asset syndication. In addition, we are building the Caliber Hospitality Trust ("CHT"), a middle-market hotel investment company utilizing the UPREIT strategy, with expectations that CHT may seek a public listing if its assets under management exceed $1.0 billion.

As an alternative asset manager, we offer a full suite of support services and employ a vertically integrated approach to investment management. Our asset management activities are complemented by transaction and advisory services, including development and construction management, acquisition and disposition services, brokerage activities, and fund formation services.

On May 2, 2025, the Company effected a one-for-twenty (1-for-20) reverse stock split of its common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The Reverse Stock Split did not change the authorized number of shares or the par value of the Common Stock nor modify any voting rights of the Common Stock.

**Asset Management Revenues**

We earn the following fees from providing these services under our asset management platform (the "Platform"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Organizational and offering fees include fund set-up fees earned during the initial formation, administration, and set-up of fund products we distribute and manage. These fees are recognized at a point in time when performance obligations are satisfied.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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 certain costs incurred on behalf of the fund. These customer contracts require us to provide management services, that represent performance obligations satisfied over time. With respect to CHT, we earn a fund management fee of 0.7% of CHT's enterprise value and are reimbursed for certain costs incurred on its behalf.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financing fees are earned for securing third-party financing on behalf of our private equity real estate funds and are recognized at a point in time upon loan closing. We may also earn fees for guaranteeing certain loans, which are recognized over time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Real estate development revenues are generally based on two fee-based contracts, not to exceed an aggregate of 6%. The first, a real estate development contract that provides for up to 4.0% of the total expected costs of the development and is paid for services performed by Caliber Development, LLC as the principal developer of our projects. These services may include obtaining new entitlements or zoning changes and managing and supervising third-party developers. The second, a construction management contract that provides for up to 4.0% of the total expected costs of the construction project for services provided managing general contractors with respect to the construction of the properties owned by the funds. 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, construction management fee revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Brokerage fees are earned at fixed rates for services related to acquisitions, dispositions, leasing and financing transactions and are recognized at a point in time when services are completed.

**Performance Allocations**

Performance allocations represent our contractual share of investment returns generated within the investment funds we manage. We typically receive 15.0% to 35.0% of 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. Preferred returns across our funds generally range from 6.0% to 12.0%.

Performance allocations are recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") when it is determined that they are no longer probable of significant reversal, which generally occurs upon close of asset sales or refinancings. Many alternative asset managers qualify for investment company accounting which renders comparability to our financial performance difficult. Annually, we re-evaluate our conclusions regarding the application of investment company accounting. Under investment company accounting, among other adjustments, we would recognize the portion of any performance allocations earned in the year as unrealized gains and losses. Given the vertical nature of our business and the significant activities we generate revenue on, we do not qualify for investment company accounting. However, if we were to qualify, we would have recognized approximately $16.3 million in unrealized gains in the current year.

Performance allocations are inherently variable and depend on asset-level performance and realization events. There can be no assurance that projected performance allocations will be realized.

**Managed Assets**

We have $2.6 billion in Managed Assets, comprised of AUM and AUD. AUD includes development, redevelopment, construction, and entitlement projects that are underway or in planning stages. This category includes projects to be built on undeveloped land, including projects under contract for purchase by our funds.

As of December 31, 2025, we are actively developing 1,796 multifamily units, 697 single family units, 3.7 million square feet of commercial and industrial space, and 3.5 million square feet of office and retail space. If these projects are completed, total capitalized costs are currently estimated to be $1.9 billion, and are expected to be funded through a combination of undeployed fund cash, third-party equity, project sales, tax credit financing and secured debt financing.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Completing these development activities may ultimately result in income-producing assets, assets we may sell to third parties, or both. If we complete all AUD at December 31, 2025, up through sale, we estimate the Company could earn $104.2 million in performance allocations.

We are under no obligation to complete these projects and may dispose of any such assets at any time. There can be no assurance that AUD will ultimately be developed or constructed because of the nature of the cost of the approval and development process and market demand for a particular use. The development of these assets requires significant additional financing and are subject to market conditions, entitlement risks, construction risks and access to capital. Similarly, total costs to complete a project could change or the future selling price could be different than projected, thus there is no assurance that performance allocations will be realized.

**Digital Asset Treasury Strategy**

*Overview*

Our digital asset treasury strategy is governed by formal policies adopted by our Board of Directors. The strategy is intended to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provide exposure to blockchain infrastructure assets

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generate staking yield

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Align our treasury strategy with technological infrastructure supporting tokenized asset markets

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Complement our real asset investment platform

We are evaluating potential applications of blockchain technology within our real estate investment platform, including initiatives designed to improve operational efficiency, investor servicing, and accessibility. These efforts may include the tokenization of real-world assets, such as real estate projects and fund interests, to facilitate fractional ownership, enhance liquidity, and streamline investor reporting and fund administration. We also believe that tokenized offerings may represent an additional capital formation channel, enabling us to reach a broader base of global investors through compliant, blockchain-enabled investment structures.

Digital assets are subject to significant market volatility, regulatory uncertainty, technological risk and custodial considerations. We maintain internal controls and governance procedures designed to manage these risks; however, there can be no assurance that digital asset holdings will not experience material fluctuations in value.

*Digital Asset Treasury Holdings*

Our digital asset treasury is currently comprised of only LINK. We currently do not have a specific target for the amount or type of digital asset holdings we intend to acquire and hold.

As further discussed below, our digital asset treasury holds LINK solely on the Ethereum blockchain.

*Chainlink and LINK Overview*

LINK is the native token of the Chainlink network. It is used to pay for Chainlink services, including oracle and related network services, and it is also used in Chainlink Staking to support security and enable eligible participants to earn rewards. LINK is an ERC-677 compatible token originally deployed on Ethereum. LINK may also be transferred across supported chains using the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol ("CCIP") and CCIP-powered applications.

*Chainlink Staking Activities and Revenues*

We intend to generate staking and other revenue from participating in the Chainlink ecosystem through being Community Stakers (as discussed below). We intend to allocate a significant portion of our LINK holdings to be staked through certain limited node

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

operators. Management estimates it may earn a net yield of approximately 3% to 9% annualized, based upon internal estimates of the potential to stake our LINK treasury.

Chainlink Staking is a security mechanism designed to enhance the security and reliability of Chainlink's oracle services. In Chainlink Staking, node operators ("Node Operator Stakers") and community members ("Community Stakers") stake (i.e., lock up) LINK in exchange for receiving staking rewards.

Staking reward rates vary because a fixed amount of rewards are made available to the staking protocol (currently v0.2) per unit of time, regardless of how much aggregate LINK is staked in the protocol.

Community Stakers earn base rewards for securing the network by staking LINK, and they can earn additional rewards through additional activities, including by providing timely and valid alerts about DON performance. Automatically, Community Stakers have their stake delegated to Node Operator Stakers (without the operators taking control of such staked LINK), and 4% of Community Staker rewards are directed to the operators as a Delegation Reward in exchange for performing oracle computation on behalf of Community Stakers.

Node Operator Stakers also earn base rewards for securing the network and performing oracle computation, with their rewards supplemented by the Delegation Rewards as discussed above, which are made available to Node Operator Stakers proportionally based on the amount each operator stakes.

Attributed Rewards are earned by stakers during their participation in staking, which are composed of "Claimable Rewards" and "Locked Rewards". Claimable Rewards can be claimed by stakers at any time without penalty. Locked Rewards turn into Claimable Rewards over a period of time known as the ramp-up period. The ramp-up period is a 90-day period, tracked individually for each staker, that starts at 0% when a staker first stakes and linearly increases to 100% of the possible reward rate. The percentage of claimable Attributed Rewards is proportional to the amount of time spent in the ramp-up period. When unstaking LINK before the full ramp-up period has been completed, any Locked Rewards turn into "Forfeited Rewards", which are forfeited and become available for all stakers in the same category.

Chainlink Staking v0.2 offers increased security by supporting the ability to slash (forfeit) a portion of staked LINK by Node Operator Stakers who help power oracle services secured by staking. Community Stakers, and Node Operator Stakers only serving oracle services not secured by staking, will not be at risk of slashing.

We use Coinbase Prime, the institutional product of Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC ("Coinbase Custody"), to trade, custody, stake and manage our digital assets. Of our LINK, Coinbase Prime holds approximately 100% in hot wallets. Coinbase Custody is chartered as a limited purpose trust company by the New York State Department of Financial Services. 100% of our LINK holdings are custodied by Coinbase Custody, and none of our LINK were staked as of December 31, 2025.

*Current and Expected Digital Asset Treasury Holdings*

At December 31, 2025, the Company held 562,535 LINK with a cost basis of $12.6 million and a fair value of $6.8 million. All LINK were acquired during the year ended December 31, 2025, and the Company has not sold any of its LINK holdings as of that date.

**Investment Process and Risk Management**

We maintain a rigorous investment process across all our funds. Each fund has investment policies and procedures that generally contain investment parameters and requirements, such as limitations relating to the types of assets, industries or geographic regions in which the fund will invest. An investment committee reviews and evaluates investment opportunities in a framework that includes a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the key opportunities and risks of investments.

Our investment professionals are responsible for the full life cycle of an investment, from evaluation, through execution, to exit. Investment professionals generally submit investment opportunities for review and approval by our investment committee. The investment committee is comprised of members of our executive and senior leadership teams. When evaluating investment opportunities, the investment committee may consider, without limitation and depending on the nature of the investment and its strategy, the quality of the asset in which the fund proposes to invest, likely exit strategies, factors that could reduce the value of the asset at exit, and a range of economic and interest rate environments, macroeconomic trends in the relevant geographic region

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

or industry and the quality of the asset's business operations. Our investment committee also incorporates, to the extent appropriate, environmental, social and governance factors into the investment decision-making process.

Existing investments are reviewed and monitored on a regular basis by investment and asset management professionals. In addition, our investment professionals and asset managers work directly with our portfolio companies' directors, executives and managers to drive operational efficiencies and growth.

**Capital Invested In and Alongside Our Investment Funds**

To further align our interests with those of investors in our investment funds, we have invested our own capital and that of certain of our personnel in the investment funds that we sponsor and manage. Minimum general partner capital commitments to our investment funds are determined separately with respect to each of our investment funds and, generally, are less than 5% of the limited partner commitments of any particular fund. We determine whether to make general partner capital commitments to our funds in excess of the minimum required commitments based on, among other things, our anticipated liquidity, working capital and other capital needs.

As of December 31, 2025, we have $20.1 million invested alongside our fund investors in the form of equity positions, short-term loans, and receivables. This represents 3.9% of our Managed Capital of $517.2 million.

Investors in many of our funds also receive the opportunity to make additional "co-investments" with the investment funds. Our employees and we also have the opportunity to make investments, in or alongside our funds and other vehicles we manage, in some instances without being subject to management fees, carried interest or incentive fees. In certain cases, limited partner investors may pay additional management fees or carried interest in connection with such co-investments.

**Competition**

The real estate asset management industry is intensely competitive. We compete primarily on a regional, industry and asset class basis.

We face competition both in the pursuit of fund investors and investment opportunities. Generally, our competition varies across business lines, geographies, and financial markets. We compete for outside investors based on a variety of factors, including investment performance, investor perception of investment managers' drive, focus and alignment of interest, quality of service provided to and duration of relationship with investors, business reputation, and the level of fees and expenses charged for services.

We compete for investment opportunities based on a variety of factors, including breadth of market coverage and relationships, access to capital, transaction execution skills, the range of products and services offered, innovation, and price.

We compete with real estate funds, specialized funds, hedge fund sponsors, financial institutions, private equity funds, corporate buyers, and other parties. Many of these competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than are available to us. Many of these competitors have similar investment objectives to ours, which may create additional competition for investment opportunities. Some of these competitors may also have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us, which may create competitive disadvantages for us with respect to investment opportunities. In addition, some of these competitors may have higher risk tolerances, different risk assessments or lower return thresholds, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and to bid more aggressively than us for investments that we want to make. Corporate buyers may be able to achieve synergistic cost savings with regard to an investment that may provide them with a competitive advantage in bidding for an investment.

The alternative investment industry is highly competitive. Many of our competitors have greater financial resources and a broader market presence than we do. We compete with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Competitive fee structures on our asset management services; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Diversification of our revenue stream across the deal continuum, including asset management revenues which include brokerage fees on buying and selling assets, construction management fees on repositioning assets, fund set up fees for the initial formation, administration, and set-up of fund products we distribute and manage.

**Strategy and Competitive Strengths**

We manage and administer investment vehicles that allow investors to diversify their holdings into asset classes that would not be readily accessible to them otherwise. We typically distribute cash to fund investors where there is either: (i) sufficient distributable cash derived from the income of our investments (rents, etc.) or (ii) a capital event, such as a sale of an asset or a cash-out refinance. Our approach is to offer investors, and their wealth managers, products managed by a team aligned with their success. We believe our competitive strengths include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Extensive relationship and sourcing network.*** We leverage our relationships in order to source deals for our funds. In addition, our management has extensive relationships with major industry participants in each of the markets in which we currently operate. Their local presence and reputation in these markets enables them to cultivate key relationships with major holders of property inventory, in particular, financial institutions, throughout the real estate community.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Targeted market opportunities.*** We primarily focus on business and investment-friendly markets that have a long-term trend of population growth and income improvement, in particular focus on Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Texas, and Virginia. We generally avoid engaging in direct competition in over-regulated and saturated markets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Structuring expertise and speed of execution.*** We believe we have developed a reputation of being able to quickly execute, as well as originate and creatively structure acquisitions, dispositions and financing transactions. We have experience in a variety of investment strategies, including direct property investments, joint ventures, participating loans and investments in performing and non-performing mortgages with the objective of long-term ownership.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Vertically integrated platform for operational enhancement.*** We believe in a hands-on approach to real estate investing and possess local expertise in brokerage, development management, and investment sales, which we believe enable us to invest successfully in select submarkets. Our goal is to optimize the use of in-house services for high margin, low volume tasks while using third-party services for high volume, low margin tasks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Focus on the middle market.*** We believe our focus on middle market opportunities offers our investors significant alternatives to active, equity investing. This focus has allowed us to offer a diversified range of alternative investment opportunities, particularly for accredited investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Risk protection and investment discipline.*** We underwrite our investments based upon an examination of investment economics and an understanding of market dynamics and risk management strategies. We conduct an in-depth sensitivity analysis on each of our fund investments. This analysis applies various economic scenarios that include, where appropriate, changes to rental rates, absorption periods, operating expenses, interest rates, exit values and holding periods.

**Our Growth Strategy**

We aim to continue building wealth for our investors by expanding our business with the following strategies:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Organic growth with our existing high net worth investor base.*** We estimate that we currently service less than 1.0% of the current high net worth investor base in the United States. Using our established direct sales method, we intend to attract additional high net worth individuals to expand our number of customers and our assets under management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Expansion into additional distribution channels***. We intend to expand our recent, early success in accessing institutional channels by further expanding our fundraising activities directed to registered investment advisers ("RIA"), broker-dealers, family offices, and boutique institutions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***New funds and platforms.*** We intend to grow our AUM by expanding the number of available funds and platforms. We will look for complementary products and vehicles that utilize our existing vertically integrated infrastructure to allow us to continue to capture attractive risk-adjusted returns. These areas of investment could include private debt, venture capital and private equity. We expect these new funds and platforms will attract new investors, in addition to leveraging our existing investor base.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***UPREIT Strategies.*** We intend to utilize the UPREIT structure, starting with CHT, to grow our AUM through tax-efficient asset acquisitions which can be completed primarily in shares in the UPREIT we manage instead of traditional cash debt and equity. We expect to leverage our operating infrastructure as an external advisor to the UPREIT entity(s) we manage to avoid duplicating costs of running additional public companies.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Accretive acquisitions***. We plan to evaluate potential accretive acquisition opportunities to further grow our business. These acquisitions could include opportunities to expand our distribution capabilities, product offerings or geographic reach.

**Human Capital Management**

We are committed to operating according to our core principles:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Authenticity & Transparency

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Vision & Agility

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Compassion & Service

Our employees are integral to our culture and our primary real estate objective, to produce and manage real estate investments that our insiders own and invest in. Our employees adhere to our core principles leading to our continued success as an organization. Our professionals have decades of institutional experience in commercial, real estate, capital markets, alternative investments, and mergers and acquisitions. We give our employees the opportunities to develop their skills and encourage them to collaborate to achieve success.

As of December 31, 2025, we had 50 employees. None of our employees are currently covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

*Talent Acquisition, Development and Retention*

We face intense competition for qualified personnel. We believe the talent of our employees, in association with our rigorous investment process, has supported our growth and investment performance over the past decade. We are focused on hiring, training, and developing the skills and careers of our people. We provide opportunities for growth and development for our employees and support their personal and professional goals in an effort to retain the most talented individuals.

The opportunities we provide in conjunction with our reputation is what we believe makes us an attractive employer. We seek to retain and incentivize the performance of our employees through our compensation structure. We enter into non-competition and non-solicitation agreements with certain employees.

We believe we offer a differentiated platform for employees to join our business as one of the only boutique, publicly listed real estate asset manages in the United States.

*Compensation and Benefits*

Our compensation strategy is designed to attract qualified talent, retain team members, and stay competitive within the talent market. We continually evaluate our compensation structure to ensure it aligns with the market and continues to be an attractive component of joining our team. Compensation includes incentives for individual performance as well as overall success in meeting our goals. We believe these additional incentives encourage team members to perform at a high level.

We provide our team members with competitive health and retirement offerings, as well as a variety of quality-of-life benefits, including flexible time-off, an employee assistance program at no cost to the employee, a match for retirement plan contribution, tuition reimbursement, and overall support for well-being and family planning resources.

**Regulatory and Compliance Matters**

Our businesses, as well as the financial services industry generally, are subject to extensive regulation, including periodic examinations, by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations or exchanges in the jurisdictions in which we operate relating to, among other things, anti-money laundering laws, and privacy laws with respect to client information, and some of our funds invest in businesses that operate in highly regulated industries. Each of the regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over us oversee many aspects of financial services, including the authority to grant, and in specific circumstances to revoke, permissions to engage in particular activities. Any failure to comply with these rules and regulations could expose us to liability and/or reputational damage. The SEC and various self-regulatory organizations, state securities regulators, and international securities regulators have in recent years increased their regulatory activities, including regulation, examination, and enforcement in respect of asset management firms. Additional legislation, increasing regulatory oversight of fundraising activities, changes in rules promulgated by self-regulatory organizations or exchanges or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules may directly affect our mode of operation and profitability.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

We intend to continue to conduct our operations so that neither we nor any subsidiaries we own nor ones we may establish will be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("Investment Company Act"). The loss of our exclusion from regulation pursuant to the Investment Company Act could require us to restructure our operations, sell certain of our assets, or abstain from the purchase of certain assets, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. If we were deemed an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our business as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

**Website and Available Information**

We file annual, quarterly and current reports; proxy and information statements and other information with the SEC. We also make our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all related amendments, available free of charge through our website at www.caliberco.com as soon as reasonably practical after they have been filed with the SEC. We also provide to anyone, without charge, copies of the documents upon written request. Requests should be directed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary at our address on the cover page of this Form 10-K.

We are an electronic filer. The SEC maintains an internet website at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers, such as us, that file electronically with the SEC.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

*Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of risk and investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in evaluating us and our business. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In this case, the trading price of our Class A common stock would likely decline, and investors might lose part or all their investment in our Class A common stock.*

**Summary of Risk Factors**

The following summarizes the principal risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. This summary highlights key risks but does not address all potential risks. Further, this summary should be read together with the text of the risk factors and set forth immediately after the summary, and both the summary and text of the risk factors should be read together with the other information set forth in this report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our business depends in large part on our ability to raise capital for our funds from investors. If we were unable to raise such capital, we may be unable to grow our asset management revenues. The inability to deploy such capital into investments, may materially reduce our revenues and cash flows and adversely affect our financial condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in prevailing interest rates may reduce our profitability, and we may not be able to adequately anticipate and respond to changes in market interest rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Inflation can have an adverse impact on our business and on our customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in trade policies and tariffs imposed by the United States government and the governments of other nations may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could adversely affect our current and projected business operations and our financial condition and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A decline in the pace of growth or size of investment made by our funds may adversely affect our revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our revenue, earnings, net income, and cash flows can all vary materially, which may make it difficult for us to achieve steady earnings growth on a quarterly basis and may cause the price of our Class A common stock to decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We could lose part or all of our investments, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have an amount of total liabilities which may be considered significant for a company of our size which could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to react to changes in our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our debt or refinance our obligations and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under such indebtedness, which may not be successful.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The historical returns attributable to our funds should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our funds or of our future results or of any returns expected on an investment in our Class A common stock.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be subject to litigation risks and may face liabilities and damage to our professional reputation as a result of investment decisions on behalf of investors in our funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Actions of any joint venture partners that we may have could reduce the returns on joint venture investments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our reliance on third parties to operate and to develop certain of our properties may harm our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in relevant tax laws, regulations, treaties, or an adverse interpretation of these items by tax authorities could adversely impact our effective tax rate and tax liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conflicts of interest exist between us and related parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Risk management activities may adversely affect the return on our funds' investments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our real estate funds are subject to the risks inherent in the ownership, development, and operation of real estate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Investments by our investment funds may rank junior to investments made by others.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Rapid growth of our businesses may be difficult to sustain and may place significant demands on our administrative, operational, and financial resources.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We depend on our founders, senior professionals, and other key personnel, and our ability to retain them and attract additional qualified personnel is critical to our success and our growth prospects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may expand into new investment strategies, geographic markets and businesses, each of which may result in additional risks and uncertainties in our businesses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be successful in competing with companies in the asset management industry and alternative investment industries, some of which may have substantially greater resources than we do.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we are unable to maintain and protect our intellectual property, or if third parties assert that we infringe their intellectual property rights, our business could suffer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Security risks and attacks are common, increasing globally, and may result in significant liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our failure to sufficiently secure our business and services may result in unauthorized access to investor data, a negative impact on our investor attraction and retention, and significant liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We depend on various cloud service providers operated by third parties, and any service outages, delays, or disruptions in these operations could harm our business and operating results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we are unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A common stock may decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The consolidation of investment funds or operating businesses of our portfolio companies could make it more difficult to understand our operating performance and could create operational risks for us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our Bylaws have an exclusive forum for adjudication of disputes provision which limits the forum to the Delaware Court of Chancery for certain stockholder litigation matters actions against us, which may limit an investor's ability to seek what they regard as a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or its directors, officers, employees, or stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we were deemed to be an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our businesses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Extensive regulation of our businesses affects our activities and creates the potential for significant liabilities and penalties. The possibility of increased regulatory focus could result in additional burdens on our business. Changes in tax law and other legislative or regulatory changes could adversely affect us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with our executive officers, which will limit your ability to influence the outcome of important transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to maintain a listing of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our share price has in the past and may in the future fluctuate substantially.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Future sales and issuances of our Class A common stock or rights to purchase Class A common stock, including pursuant to our equity incentive plans, could result in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause the stock price of our Class A common stock to decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may be unable to accurately report our operating results, meet our reporting obligations, or prevent fraud.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are an emerging growth company, and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are a "controlled company" within the meaning of the listing rules of Nasdaq and, as a result, can rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to stockholders of other companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have never paid dividends on our common stock, and we do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. Consequently, any gains from an investment in our Class A common stock will likely depend on whether the price of our common stock increases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our charter documents and Delaware law and the voting control exercised by our founders could prevent a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also reduce the market price of our stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Claims for indemnification by our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our financial results and the market price of our common stock may be affected by the price of LINK.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our LINK holdings are less liquid than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our Treasury Reserve Policy is new and has not been tested over time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we were deemed to be an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, the applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our businesses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be subject to additional tax liability if regulation or policy changes adversely affect the tax treatment of rewards from staking LINK.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may face operational, technological, and security risks related to the acquisition and custody of our LINK holdings,

including the loss of private keys required to access our LINK holdings and smart contract related losses and vulnerabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may suffer losses due to our staking activities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The irreversibility of digital asset transactions exposes us to risks of theft, loss and human error, which could negatively impact our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The change in use of proceeds from our ELOC facility to include digital asset acquisitions may increase risk and reduce liquidity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our Treasury Reserve Policy exposes us to risk of non-performance by counterparties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our digital asset treasury strategy could create complications with third party service providers, such as insurance companies, banking entities and auditors, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Technological obsolescence and competition could adversely affect the value of LINK.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The emergence or growth of other digital assets or other technologies, including those with significant private or public sector backing, could have a negative impact on the price of LINK and, consequently, adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The due diligence procedures conducted by us and our liquidity providers to mitigate transaction risk may fail to prevent transactions with a sanctioned entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The launch of central bank digital currencies ("CBDCs") may adversely impact our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Intellectual property disputes related to the open-source structure of digital asset networks expose us to risks related to software development, security vulnerabilities and potential disruptions to digital asset technology could threaten our ability to operate.

**Risks Related to Our Business**

***Our business depends in large part on our ability to raise capital for our funds from investors. If we were unable to raise such capital, we may be unable to grow our asset management revenues. The inability to deploy such capital into investments, may materially reduce our revenues and cash flows and adversely affect our financial condition.***

We depend on the capital markets to grow our AUM and we depend on third-party equity and debt financings to acquire properties for our funds. We intend to continue to raise a significant amount of equity and debt to acquire various alternative investments for our funds in the ordinary course of our business. Our debt financing depends on a combination of seller financing, the assumption of existing loans, government agencies, and financial institutions. We depend on equity financing from equity partners, which may include public or private companies, pension funds, family offices, financial institutions, endowments, high net worth individuals, and money managers. Our access to capital funding for our funds is uncertain. Our inability to raise additional capital for our funds on terms reasonably acceptable to us could jeopardize the future growth of our business.

Our ability to raise capital from investors in our funds depends on several factors, including many that are outside our control. Investors may downsize their investment allocations to alternative asset managers, including private funds and hedge funds, to rebalance a disproportionate weighting of their overall investment portfolio among asset classes. Poor performance of our funds could also make it more difficult for us to raise new capital. Our investors and potential investors continually assess our funds'

performance independently and relative to market benchmarks and our competitors, and our ability to raise capital for existing and future funds depends on our funds' performance. The financial markets are affected by many factors, such as U.S. and foreign economic conditions and general trends in business and finance that are beyond our control, which could be adversely affected by changes in the equity or debt marketplaces, unanticipated changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates, inflation rates, the yield curve, financial crises, changes in regulation, war, terrorism, natural disasters and other factors that are difficult to predict. The markets continue to be affected by inflation in the United States, global health pandemics, the imposition of sanctions and the escalation of hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict and the United States, Israel and Iran. In the event that the U.S. or international financial markets suffer a severe or prolonged downturn or increased volatility, our funds' investments may lose value and investors may choose to withdraw assets from our funds and use the assets to pay expenses or transfer them to investments that they perceive to be more secure, such as bank deposits and Treasury securities. If economic and market conditions deteriorate, we may be unable to raise sufficient capital to support the investment activities of future funds. If we are unable to successfully raise capital, our revenues and cash flows would be reduced, and our financial condition would be adversely affected.

***Changes in prevailing interest rates may reduce our profitability, and we may not be able to adequately anticipate and respond to changes in market interest rates.***

The majority of our funds' assets are monetary in nature and subject to risk from changes in interest rates. Our earnings and cash flows depend to a great extent upon the difference between the interest our funds pay on loans and borrowings and the value of fixed-rate debt investments made by our funds. Depending on the terms and maturities of our assets and liabilities, a significant change in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. In addition, rising interest rates, coupled with periods of significant equity and credit market volatility may potentially make it more difficult for us to find attractive opportunities for our funds to exit and realize value from their existing investments.

Interest rates remained at relatively low levels on a historical basis and the U.S. Federal Reserve maintained the federal funds target range at 0.0% to 0.25% for much of 2020 and 2021. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by an aggregate of 525 basis points from January 1, 2022 through September 18, 2024. During the remainder of the of 2024 and 2025, the Federal Reserve decreased the federal funds rate by 169 basis points, resulting in a target rate range of 3.50% to 3.75% at December 31, 2025. Additionally, the current geopolitical environment in Europe provides yet another layer of uncertainty around the actions that the Federal Reserve might take. Market interest rates are affected by many factors outside of our control, including governmental monetary policies, domestic and international economic conditions, inflation, deflation, recession, changes in unemployment, the money supply, international disorder and instability in domestic and foreign financial markets. Rising interest rates create downward pressure on the price of real estate, increase the cost and reduce the availability of debt financing for the transactions our funds pursue and decrease the value of fixed-rate debt investments made by our funds, each of which may have an adverse impact on our business.

Increased costs of borrowing could also cause us to reconsider the purchase of certain real estate assets, the terms of any such purchase or the mix of debt and equity we employ in connection with such purchase. Such issues are expected to be more prevalent in a continued rising interest rate environment. A higher interest rate environment may lead to a significant contraction or weakening in the market for debt financing or have other adverse changes relating to the terms of debt financing (such as, for example, higher equity requirements and/or more restrictive covenants), particularly in the area of acquisition financings for private equity and real estate transactions, which could have a material adverse impact on our business. In a rising interest rate environment, the financing of acquisitions or the operations of our funds' portfolio companies with debt may also become less attractive due to the cost of capital or limitations on the deductibility of corporate interest expense. If our funds are unable to obtain committed debt financing for potential acquisitions, can only obtain debt financing at an increased interest rate or on unfavorable terms, or the ability to deduct corporate interest expense is substantially limited, our funds may face increased competition from strategic buyers of assets who may have an overall lower cost of capital or the ability to benefit from a higher amount of cost savings following an acquisition, or may have difficulty completing otherwise profitable acquisitions or may generate profits that are lower than would otherwise be the case, each of which could lead to a decrease in our revenues.

In addition, if our funds are unable to obtain committed debt financing for potential acquisitions or can only obtain debt financing at an increased interest rate or on unfavorable terms, this would require us to employ a higher mix of equity to acquire real estate assets. The cost of equity in a rising interest rate environment may also become more expensive, and we may be required to offer a higher rate of return on equity in order to finance such assets. This in turn would adversely affect our profitability from such assets. While to date our funds' borrowing costs have not substantially increased, as rates continue to increase, our ability to use leverage as a financing tool or to pass along any increased costs of borrowing or financing will become more difficult, all of which could have an adverse effect on our profitability.

***Inflation can have an adverse impact on our business and on our customers.***

Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. The annual inflation rate in the United States increased to 9.1% in June 2022, the highest rate since November 1981, but has since decreased to 2.7% as of the end of December 2025. For project execution, inflation has increased the cost of nearly all building materials and labor types, increasing the cost of construction and renovation of our funds' assets. Furthermore, third parties we do business with, such as developers and contractors, are also affected by inflation and the rising costs of goods and services used in their businesses. A significant and continued increase in interest rates and inflation would be expected to have a negative impact on their ability to do business with us, which would affect our profitability.

***Changes in trade policies and tariffs imposed by the United States government and the governments of other nations may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.***

Effective March 4, 2025, the U.S. administration imposed a 20% tariff on all imports from China, a 25% tariff on all imports from Mexico, and a 25% tariff on most imports from Canada, with a 10% tariff on energy imports. At this time, the overall impact on our business related to these tariffs remains uncertain and depends on multiple factors, including the duration and potential expansion of current tariffs, future changes to tariff rates, scope, or enforcement, retaliatory measures by impacted trade partners, inflationary effects and broader macroeconomic responses, and the effectiveness of our responses in managing these challenges. We cannot predict if, and to what extent, there will be changes to international trade agreements or the resulting impact of any such changes on our business operations. We are closely monitoring this evolving situation and evaluating our responses. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to fully mitigate the impact of such tariffs or trade restrictions.

***Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could adversely affect our current and projected business operations and our financial condition and results of operations.***

Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties or other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. For example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB") was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") as receiver. Similarly, on March 12, 2023, Signature Bank and Silvergate Capital Corp. ("Silvergate Capital"), and then on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank, were each swept into receivership. Although a statement by the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC indicated that all depositors of SVB would have access to all of their money after only one business day of closure, including funds held in uninsured deposit accounts, borrowers under credit agreements, letters of credit and certain other financial instruments with any financial institution that is placed into receivership by the FDIC may be unable to access undrawn amounts thereunder. Although we are not a borrower or party to any such instruments with SVB, Signature Bank, First Republic Bank or any other financial institution currently in receivership, if any of our lenders or counterparties to any such instruments were to be placed into receivership, we may be unable to access such funds. In addition, if any of our customers, suppliers or other parties with whom we conduct business are unable to access funds pursuant to such instruments or lending arrangements with such a financial institution, such parties' ability to pay their obligations to us or to enter into new commercial arrangements requiring additional payments to us could be adversely affected. In this regard, counterparties to SVB, Signature Bank or First Republic Bank credit agreements and arrangements, and third parties such as beneficiaries of letters of credit (among others), may experience direct impacts from the closures of SVB, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank and uncertainty remains over liquidity concerns in the broader financial services industry. Similar impacts have occurred in the past, such as during the 2008-2010 financial crisis. We hold no deposits or securities with SVB, Signature Bank, First Republic Bank or Silvergate Capital.

***A decline in the pace of growth or size of investment made by our funds may adversely affect our revenues.***

Revenues we derive from our asset management and related services are driven in part by the pace at which our funds make investments and the size of those investments. A decline in the pace or the size of such investments may reduce our revenues. The pace of our investments could decline due to, among other factors, the market environment for private equity transactions, which has at times been characterized by relatively high prices, and such market changes make the deployment of capital more difficult. In addition, many other factors could cause a decline in the pace of investment, including the inability of our investment professionals to identify attractive investment opportunities, competition for such opportunities among other potential acquirers, decreased availability of capital on attractive terms, and our failure to consummate identified investment opportunities because of business, regulatory or legal complexities or uncertainty and adverse developments in the U.S. or global economy or financial

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

markets. In addition, if our funds are unable to deploy capital at a pace that is sufficient to offset the pace of realizations, our fee revenues could decrease.

***Our revenue, earnings, net income, and cash flows can all vary materially, which may make it difficult for us to achieve steady earnings growth on a quarterly basis and may cause the price of our Class A common stock to decline.***

We have in the past and may in the future experience fluctuations in our results, including our revenue and net income, from quarter to quarter due to a number of other factors, including timing of realizations, changes in the amount of distributions or interest paid in respect of investments, changes in our operating expenses, the degree to which we encounter competition and general economic and market conditions. Achieving steady growth in net income and cash flow on a quarterly basis may be difficult, which could in turn lead to large adverse movements or general increased volatility in the price of our Class A common stock. We also do not provide any guidance regarding our expected quarterly and annual operating results. The lack of near term guidance may affect the expectations of public market analysts and could cause increased volatility in our Class A common stock price.

We have incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and may incur operating losses and negative cash flows in future periods. In response to these conditions, and the absence of sufficient cash to satisfy the debt obligations referenced below under the risk factor "We have an amount of total liabilities which may be considered significant for a company of our size which could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to react to changes in our business", management plans to i) negotiate extensions of such loans or refinance such debt, ii) obtain new financing, iii) reduce operating costs, iv) collect receivables and return investments from our Consolidated Funds, and/or v) increase capital raise through continued expansion of fundraising channels.

Our revenue, net income, and cash flows can all vary materially due to performance allocations (income earned with respect to our carried interest is recorded as performance allocations) in any fiscal period. Performance allocations depend on our funds' performance and opportunities for realizing gains, which may be limited. Our cash flow may fluctuate significantly due to the fact that we receive performance allocations from our carry funds only when portfolio companies make distributions in excess of preferred return hurdles, or when investments are realized and achieve a minimum preferred return. It takes a substantial period of time to identify attractive investment opportunities, to raise all the funds needed to make an investment, to manage the performance of the investment, and then to realize the cash value (or other proceeds) of an investment through a sale, public offering, recapitalization or other exit. Even if an investment proves to be profitable, it may be several years before any profits can be realized in cash (or other proceeds). We cannot predict with certainty exactly when, or if, any performance allocations will or may occur.

In addition, upon the realization of a profitable investment by any of our funds and prior to our receiving any performance allocations in respect of that investment, 100% of the net proceeds from such realization must generally be paid to the investors in that fund until they have achieved a certain return on all realized investments by that fund. A particular realization event may have a significant impact on our results for that particular quarter that may not be replicated in subsequent quarters. We recognize revenue on investments in our investment funds based on our allocable share of realized gains (or losses) reported by such investment funds, and a decline in gains, or an increase in losses, would adversely affect our revenue and possibly cash flow, which could further increase the volatility of our quarterly results. Because our carry funds have preferred return thresholds to investors that need to be met prior to our receiving any performance allocations, substantial declines in the carrying value of the investment portfolios of a fund can significantly delay or eliminate any performance allocations paid to us in respect of that fund since the value of the assets in the fund would need to recover to their aggregate cost basis plus the preferred return over time before we would be entitled to receive any performance allocations from that fund.

The timing and receipt of performance allocations also varies with the life cycle of our funds. During periods in which a relatively large portion of our assets under management are attributable to funds and investments in their "optimized" period, our funds would make larger distributions than in the fundraising or investment periods that precede the optimized period. During periods in which a significant portion of our assets under management is attributable to funds that are not in their optimized periods, we may receive substantially lower performance allocations.

***We could lose part or all of our investments, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.***

There is an inherent risk that we could lose all or part of our investment in certain assets. Our investments are generally illiquid, which may affect our ability to change our asset mix in response to changes in economic and other conditions. The value of our investments can also be diminished by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• civil unrest, acts of war and terrorism and acts of God, including earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters (which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact of present or future legislation (including environmental regulation, changes in laws concerning foreign ownership of property, changes in tax rates, changes in zoning laws and laws requiring upgrades to accommodate disabled persons) and the cost of compliance with these types of legislation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liabilities relating to claims, to the extent insurance is not available or is inadequate.

***We have an amount of total liabilities which may be considered significant for a company of our size which could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to react to changes in our business.***

We had individual corporate notes aggregating $29.6 million at December 31, 2025, for which the maturity dates of the majority of these notes are within the 12-month period subsequent to when the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 were issued. We currently do not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy such obligations.

We believe this is an amount of total liabilities which may be considered significant for a company of our size and current revenue base. Our substantial total liabilities could have important consequences to us. For example, it could:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to make payments on our debt, which would reduce the availability of our cash flows from operations to fund working capital, capital expenditures or other general corporate purposes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including interest rate fluctuations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• place us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors with proportionately less debt for their size;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our ability to refinance our existing debt or borrow additional funds in the future;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changing conditions in our business; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limit our ability to react to competitive pressures or make it difficult for us to carry out capital spending that is necessary or important to our growth strategy.

Any of the foregoing impacts of our substantial total liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our debt or refinance our obligations and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under such indebtedness, which may not be successful.***

We require cash to (a) provide capital to facilitate the growth of our existing businesses, (b) co-investment into our funds, if any, (c) service our debt and (d) pay operating expenses and other obligations as they arise. There is no guarantee that in the future we will generate enough working capital to support our business. Our ability to repay our total liabilities, including our ability to make scheduled payments on our debt or to refinance our obligations under our debt agreements, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to the financial and business risk factors we face as described in this section, many of which may be beyond our control. If the global economy and conditions in the financing markets worsen, our fund investment performance could suffer, resulting in, for example, the payment of less or no performance allocations to us. This could materially and adversely affect the amount of cash we have on hand.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to repay our total liabilities, including the ability to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures or planned growth objectives, seek to obtain additional equity capital or restructure our debt. We may also need additional cash resources in the future if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, capital expenditures or similar actions. If we determine that our cash requirements

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

exceed the amount of cash and cash equivalents we have on hand at the time, we may seek to issue additional equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. If we issue additional equity securities to raise funds, whether to existing investors or others, the ownership percentage of our existing stockholders would be reduced. New investors may demand rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of existing holders of common stock. We may also be limited as to the amount of funds we can raise pursuant to SEC rules and the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operating covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

In the future, our cash flows and capital resources may not be sufficient for payments of interest on and principal of our debt, and such alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit us to meet scheduled debt service obligations. In addition, the recent worldwide credit crisis could make it more difficult for us to repay our total liabilities, including the ability to refinance our debt on favorable terms, or at all. In the absence of positive operating results and/or sufficient cash resources, we may be required to dispose of material assets to repay our total liabilities, including the ability to meet our debt service obligations. We may not be able to consummate those sales, or, if we do, we will not control the timing of the sales or whether the proceeds that we realize will be adequate to repay our total liabilities, including the ability to meet debt service obligations when due.

***The historical returns attributable to our funds should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our funds or of our future results or of any returns expected on an investment in our Class A common stock.***

An investment in our Class A common stock is not an investment in any of our funds. You should not conclude that positive performance of our funds will necessarily result in positive returns on an investment in our Class A common stock. The historical performance of our funds is relevant to us primarily insofar as it is indicative of asset management revenues and performance allocations we have earned in the past and may earn in the future and our reputation and ability to raise new funds.

In addition, the historical returns of our funds may not be indicative of any future returns of these or from any future funds we may raise due to several factors including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• market conditions during previous periods may have been more favorable for generating positive performance than the market conditions we may experience in the future; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our funds' returns may have previously benefited from investment opportunities and general market conditions that may not recur, and we may not be able to achieve the same returns or profitable investment opportunities or deploy capital as quickly.

***We may be subject to litigation risks and may face liabilities and damage to our professional reputation as a result of investment decisions on behalf of investors in our funds.*** 

We make investment decisions on behalf of investors in our funds that could result in substantial losses. This may subject us to the risk of legal liabilities or actions alleging negligent misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, or breach of contract. Further, we may be subject to third-party litigation arising from allegations that we improperly exercised control or influence over portfolio investments.

These and other legal liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition, our results of operations, or cause reputational harm to us, which could harm our businesses. We depend, to a large extent, on our business relationships and our reputation for integrity and professional services to attract and retain investors and to pursue investment opportunities for our funds. As a result, allegations of improper conduct by private litigants or regulators, whether the ultimate outcome is favorable or unfavorable to us, as well as negative publicity and press speculation about us, our investment activities, or the investment industry in general, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation, which may be damaging to our businesses.

***Actions of any joint venture partners that we may have could reduce the returns on joint venture investments.***

At times we enter joint ventures or partnerships to acquire and develop properties. Such investments may involve risks not otherwise present with other methods of investment, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• that our co-venturer, or partner in an investment could become insolvent or bankrupt;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• that such co-venturer, or partner may at any time have economic or business interests or goals that are or that become inconsistent with our business interests or goals;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• that such co-venturer, or partner may be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions, requests or our policies or objectives; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• that disputes between us and our co-venturer, or partner, may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase expenses.

Any of the above might subject a property to liabilities in excess of those contemplated and thus reduce our returns on that investment.

***Our reliance on third parties to operate and to develop certain of our properties may harm our business.*** 

In some instances, we rely on third-party property managers and hotel operators to manage our properties. These third parties are directly responsible for the day-to-day operation of our properties with limited supervision by us, and they often have potentially significant decision-making authority with respect to those properties. These third parties may fail to manage our properties effectively or in accordance with their agreements with us, may be negligent in their performance and may engage in criminal or fraudulent activity. If any of these events occur, we could incur losses or face liabilities from the loss or injury to our property or to persons at our properties. In addition, disputes may arise between us and these third-party managers and operators, and we may incur significant expenses to resolve those disputes or terminate the relevant agreement with these third parties and locate and engage competent and cost-effective service providers to operate and manage the relevant properties.

In addition, we are also parties to hotel management agreements. If any of these events occur, our relationships with any franchisors may be damaged, we may be in breach of our franchise agreement, and we could incur liabilities resulting from loss or injury to our property or to persons at our properties. From time to time, disputes may arise between us and our third-party managers regarding their performance or compliance with the terms of the hotel management agreements, which in turn could adversely affect us. If we are unable to resolve such disputes through discussions and negotiations, we may choose to terminate our management agreement, litigate the dispute or submit the matter to third-party dispute resolution, the expense of which may be material and the outcome of which may harm our business, operating results or prospects.

***Changes in relevant tax laws, regulations, treaties, or an adverse interpretation of these items by tax authorities could adversely impact our effective tax rate and tax liability.*** 

Our effective tax rate and tax liability is based on the application of current income tax laws, regulations and treaties. These laws, regulations and treaties are complex, and the manner which they apply to us and our funds is sometimes open to interpretation. Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. Although management believes its application of current laws, regulations and treaties to be correct and sustainable upon examination by the tax authorities, the tax authorities could challenge our interpretation resulting in additional tax liability or adjustment to our income tax provision that could increase our effective tax rate. In particular, changes in legislation or regulation relating to opportunity zones could adversely affect our ability to form new opportunity zone funds or to acquire assets for our existing opportunity zone funds, thereby diminishing our ability to generate revenue from those activities.

***Conflicts of interest exist between us and related parties.*** 

Conflicts of interest exist and may arise in the future as a result of the relationships between us and our affiliates and divisions and our officers, directors and owners, on the one hand, and our funds and its investors, on the other hand. We earn fees from our funds, including our carried interest which value is a direct result from the performance of our funds. There may be instances where the interests of our funds and the investors in such funds diverge from those of us which could result in conflicts of interest. In resolving these conflicts, our board of directors and executive officers have a fiduciary duty to our stockholders. In addition, as we operate as a fund manager through a wholly owned subsidiary, we have a fiduciary duty to investors in the funds we manage. Unless the resolution of a conflict is specifically provided for in the operating agreements of such funds, our board of directors may consider a wide range of factors they determine to be in good faith when resolving a conflict. An independent third party is not required to evaluate the resolution. As a result of the foregoing, there may be instances where any such conflicts are resolved in a manner which favors the interests of our funds and their investors over our stockholders.

***Risk management activities may adversely affect the return on our funds' investments.***

When managing our exposure to market risks, we may (on our own behalf or on behalf of our funds) from time to time use forward contracts, options, swaps, caps, collars and floors, or pursue other strategies or use other forms of derivative instruments to limit our exposure to changes in the relative values of investments that may result from market developments, including changes in prevailing interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices. The success of any hedging or other derivative transactions generally will depend on our ability to correctly predict market changes, the degree of correlation between price movements of a derivative instrument, the position being hedged, the creditworthiness of the counterparty and other factors. As a result, while we may enter into a transaction in order to reduce our exposure to market risks, the transaction may result in poorer overall investment performance than if it had not been executed. Such transactions may also limit the opportunity for gain if the value of a hedged position increases.

While such hedging arrangements may reduce certain risks, such arrangements themselves may entail certain other risks. These arrangements may require the posting of cash collateral at a time when a fund has insufficient cash or illiquid assets such that the posting of the cash is either impossible or requires the sale of assets at prices that do not reflect their underlying value. Moreover, these hedging arrangements may generate significant transaction costs, including potential tax costs, that reduce the returns generated by a fund. Finally, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") may in the future require certain foreign exchange products to be subject to mandatory clearing, which could increase the cost of entering into currency hedges.

***Our real estate funds are subject to the risks inherent in the ownership, development, and operation of real estate.***

Investments in our real estate funds will be subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets, including the deterioration of real estate fundamentals. These risks include, but are not limited to, those associated with the burdens of ownership of real property, general and local economic conditions, changes in supply of and demand for competing properties in an area (as a result, for instance, of overbuilding), fluctuations in the average occupancy and room rates for hotel properties, operating income, the financial resources of tenants, changes in building, environmental, zoning and other laws, casualty or condemnation losses, energy and supply shortages, various uninsured or uninsurable risks, natural disasters, climate change related risks (including climate-related transition risks and acute and chronic physical risks), changes in government regulations (such as rent control), changes in real property tax rates, changes in income tax rates, changes in interest rates, the reduced availability of mortgage funds which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable, increased mortgage defaults, increases in borrowing rates, changes to the taxation of business entities and the deductibility of corporate interest expense, negative developments in the economy that depress travel activity, environmental liabilities, contingent liabilities on disposition of assets, acts of god, terrorist attacks, war and other factors that are beyond our control. In addition, if our real estate funds acquire direct or indirect interests in undeveloped land or underdeveloped real property, which may often be non-income producing, they will be subject to the risks normally associated with such assets and development activities, including risks relating to the availability and timely receipt of zoning and other regulatory or environmental approvals, the cost and timely completion of construction (including risks beyond the control of our fund, such as weather, labor conditions, or material shortages), and the availability of both construction and permanent financing with favorable terms. In addition, our real estate funds may also make investments in residential real estate projects and/or otherwise participate in financing opportunities relating to residential real estate assets or portfolios thereof from time to time, which may be more susceptible to adverse changes in prevailing economic and/or market conditions and present additional risks relative to the ownership and operation of commercial real estate assets.

***Investments by our investment funds may rank junior to investments made by others.***

In most cases, the companies in which our investment funds invest will have indebtedness or equity securities or may be permitted to incur indebtedness or to issue equity securities that rank senior to our investment. By their terms, such instruments may provide that their holders are entitled to receive payments of dividends, interest or principal on or before the dates on which payments are to be made in respect of our investment. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a company in which an investment is made, holders of securities ranking senior to our investment would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before distributions could be made in respect of our investment. After repaying senior security holders, the company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying amounts owed in respect of our investment. To the extent that any assets remain, holders of claims that rank equally with our investment would be entitled to share on an equal and ratable basis in distributions that are made out of those assets. Also, during periods of financial distress or following an insolvency, the ability of our investment funds to influence a company's affairs and to take actions to protect their investments may be substantially less than that of the senior creditors.

***Rapid growth of our businesses may be difficult to sustain and may place significant demands on our administrative, operational, and financial resources.***

Our assets under management have grown significantly in the past, and we are pursuing further growth in the near future, both organically and through acquisitions. Our rapid growth has placed, and planned growth, if successful, will continue to place, significant demands on our legal, accounting and operational infrastructure, and has increased expenses. The complexity of these demands, and the expense required to address them, is a function not simply of the amount by which our assets under management has grown, but of the growth in the variety and complexity of, as well as the differences in strategy between, our different funds. In addition, we are required to continuously develop our systems and infrastructure in response to the increasing sophistication of the investment management market and legal, accounting, regulatory, and tax developments.

Our future growth will depend in part on our ability to maintain an operating platform and management system sufficient to address our growth and will require us to incur significant additional expenses and to commit additional senior management and operational resources.

***We depend on our founders, senior professionals, and other key personnel, and our ability to retain them and attract additional qualified personnel is critical to our success and our growth prospects.***

We depend on the diligence, skill, judgment, business contacts and personal reputations of our founders, senior professionals and other key personnel. Our future success will depend upon our ability to attract and retain senior professionals and other personnel. Our executives have built highly regarded reputations in the alternative investment industry. Our executives attract business opportunities and assist both in negotiations with lenders and potential joint venture partners and in the representation of large and institutional clients. If we lost their services, our relationships with lenders, joint ventures, and clients would diminish significantly.

In addition, some of our officers have strong regional reputations, and they aid in attracting business, identifying opportunities, and negotiating for us and on behalf of our clients. As we continue to grow, our success will largely depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel in all areas of business. We may be unable to continue to hire and retain a sufficient number of qualified personnel to support or keep pace with our planned growth.

***We may expand into new investment strategies, geographic markets and businesses, each of which may result in additional risks and uncertainties in our businesses.***

We intend, if market conditions warrant, to grow our businesses by increasing assets under management in existing businesses and expanding into new investment strategies, geographic markets and businesses. We may pursue growth through acquisitions of critical business partners or other strategic initiatives, which may include entering into new lines of business.

Attempts to expand our businesses involve a number of special risks, including some or all of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the required investment of capital and other resources;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the diversion of management's attention from our core businesses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the assumption of liabilities in any acquired business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the disruption of our ongoing businesses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• entry into markets or lines of business in which we may have limited or no experience;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increasing demands on our operational and management systems and controls;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with additional regulatory requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential increase in investor concentration; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the broadening of our geographic footprint, increasing the risks associated with conducting operations in certain jurisdictions where we currently have no experience.

Entry into certain lines of business may subject us to new laws and regulations with which we are not familiar, or from which we are currently exempt, and may lead to increased litigation and regulatory risk. If a new business does not generate sufficient

revenues or if we are unable to efficiently manage our expanded operations, our results of operations will be adversely affected. Our strategic initiatives may include joint ventures, in which case we will be subject to additional risks and uncertainties in that we may be dependent upon, and subject to liability, losses or reputational damage relating to systems, controls and personnel that are not under our control. Because we have not yet identified these potential new investment strategies, geographic markets or lines of business, we cannot identify all of the specific risks we may face and the potential adverse consequences on us and their investment that may result from any attempted expansion.

***We may not be successful in competing with companies in the asset management industry and alternative investment industries, some of which may have substantially greater resources than we do.***

The asset management industry and alternative investment industries are intensely competitive. We compete primarily on a regional, industry, and asset class basis.

We face competition both in the pursuit of fund investors and investment opportunities. Generally, our competition varies across business lines, geographies, and financial markets. We compete for outside investors based on a variety of factors, including investment performance, investor perception of investment managers' drive, focus and alignment of interest, quality of service provided to and duration of relationship with investors, business reputation, and the level of fees and expenses charged for services.

We compete for investment opportunities based on a variety of factors, including breadth of market coverage and relationships, access to capital, transaction execution skills, the range of products and services offered, innovation, and price.

We compete with real estate funds, specialized funds, hedge fund sponsors, financial institutions, private equity funds, corporate buyers, and other parties. Many of these competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than are available to us. Many of these competitors have similar investment objectives to ours, which may create additional competition for investment opportunities. Some of these competitors may also have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us, which may create competitive disadvantages for us with respect to investment opportunities. In addition, some of these competitors may have higher risk tolerances, different risk assessments or lower return thresholds, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and to bid more aggressively than us for investments that we want to make. Corporate buyers may be able to achieve synergistic cost savings with regard to an investment that may provide them with a competitive advantage in bidding for an investment.

***If we are unable to maintain and protect our intellectual property, or if third parties assert that we infringe their intellectual property rights, our business could suffer.***

Our business depends, in part, on our ability to identify and protect proprietary information and other intellectual property such as our client lists and information and business methods. We rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality policies, non-disclosure and other contractual arrangements and copyright and trademark laws to protect our intellectual property rights. However, we may not adequately protect these rights, and their disclosure to, or use by, third parties may harm our competitive position. Our inability to detect unauthorized use of, or to take appropriate or timely steps to enforce, our intellectual property rights may harm our business.

Also, third parties may claim that our business operations infringe on their intellectual property rights. These claims may harm our reputation, cost us money to defend, distract the attention of our management and prevent us from offering some services.

Confidential intellectual property is increasingly stored or carried on mobile devices, such as laptop computers, which increases the risk of inadvertent disclosure where the mobile devices are lost or stolen and the information has not been adequately safeguarded or encrypted. This also makes it easier for someone with access to our systems, or someone who gains unauthorized access, to steal information and use it to our disadvantage. Advances in technology, which permit increasingly large amounts of information to be stored on mobile devices or on third-party "cloud" servers, may exacerbate these risks.

***Security risks and attacks are common, increasing globally, and may result in significant liabilities.*** 

Our business and our internal corporate information technology systems have in the past been, and will in the future be, subject to cybersecurity-attacks, credential stuffing, account takeover attacks, denial or degradation of service attacks, phishing attacks, ransomware attacks, malicious software programs, supply chain attacks, and other cybersecurity security risks (collectively, "cybersecurity risks"). Further, we engage service providers to store and otherwise process some of our and our investor's data, including sensitive and personal information, and these service providers are also targets of cybersecurity risks.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Cybersecurity risks have been increasing in frequency and sophistication globally and may be accompanied by demands for payment in exchange for resolution, restoration of functionality, or return of data. Sources of cybersecurity risks range from individuals to sophisticated organizations, including state-sponsored actors and organizations. These attackers use a wide variety of methods to exploit vulnerabilities and gain access to corporate assets, including networks, information, or credentials. The types and methods of cybersecurity risks are constantly evolving and becoming more complex, and we may not be able to detect, combat, or successfully defend against all cybersecurity risks. Attackers initiating cybersecurity risks may gain access to our corporate assets. Vulnerabilities in our infrastructure or the success of any cybersecurity attacker against us may not be discovered in a timely fashion or at all, and the impact may be exacerbated the longer they remain undetected. While we utilize security measures and architecture designed to protect the integrity of our business and corporate information technology environment, we remain subject to ongoing and evolving cybersecurity risks, and we anticipate that we will need to continue expending resources in an effort to protect against cybersecurity risks. There is a risk that we may not be able to deploy, allocate, or retain sufficient resources to keep pace with the persistent and evolving cybersecurity threat landscape.

Moreover, several of our employees work remotely, and many of our vendors and other third parties we engage utilize remote workers in various jurisdictions throughout the world, which may increase the risk of and susceptibility to cybersecurity risks. We cannot guarantee that remote work environments and electronic connections to our work environment and information technology systems have the same security profile as those deployed in our physical offices.

Further, our ability to monitor the data security of our vendors is limited, and bad actors may successfully circumvent our vendors' security measures, resulting in the unauthorized access to, or misuse, disclosure, loss, or destruction of our and/or our investor's data. Any actual or perceived failure by us or our vendors to prevent or defend against cybersecurity risks, actual or perceived vulnerabilities or unauthorized access to corporate data or systems may lead to claims against us and may result in significant data loss, significant costs and liabilities, and could reduce our revenue, harm our reputation, and compromise our competitive position.

***Our failure to sufficiently secure our business and services may result in unauthorized access to investor data, a negative impact on our investor attraction and retention, and significant liabilities.***

Our business systems and services involve the storage, transmission, and processing of our and our investors' sensitive and proprietary information. Our failure to sufficiently secure our business and services may result in unauthorized access to investor data, a negative impact on our investor attraction and retention, and significant liabilities. Even if our security measures are appropriately engineered and implemented to secure our business and services against external risks, we may be subject to inadvertent disclosures because of inappropriate employee actions or system misconfigurations. Unauthorized use of or access to investor data could result in the loss and/or compromise of our or our investors' sensitive information, which could lead to litigation, regulatory investigations and claims, indemnity obligations, reputational harm, and other liabilities.

Our agreements with third parties, including investors, contain contractual commitments related to our information security practices and data privacy compliance. If we experience an incident that triggers a breach of these contractual commitments, we could be exposed to significant liability or cancellation of service under these agreements. The damages payable to the counterparty could be substantial and create loss of business. There can be no assurance that any limitation of liability provisions in our contracts will be enforceable or adequate or will otherwise protect us from these liabilities or damages with respect to any claim.

Many U.S. and foreign laws and regulations require companies to provide notice of data security breaches or incidents involving certain types of personal data. Security compromises experienced by competitors and others may lead to public disclosures, leading to widespread negative publicity. Such a security compromise in our industry, whether actual or perceived, could harm our reputation; erode investor confidence and negatively affect our ability to attract new investors; cause existing investors to divest, any or all of which could adversely affect our business and operating results. Even the perception of inadequate security may damage our reputation and negatively impact our ability to win new investors and retain existing investors.

Additionally, we could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to investigate and address any actual or suspected data security incident or breach. We cannot be sure that insurers will not deny coverage as to any claim, and some security breaches may be outside the scope of our coverage, including if they are considered force majeure events. Security breaches may result in increased costs for cybersecurity insurance and could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

***We depend on various cloud service providers operated by third parties, and any service outages, delays, or disruptions in these operations could harm our business and operating results.***

In our business we use various cloud service providers ("Cloud Providers") operated by third parties. As a result, we are vulnerable to service interruptions, delays, and outages attributable to their platforms. Our Cloud Providers may experience events such as natural disasters, fires, power loss, telecommunications failures, or similar events. The systems, infrastructure, and services of our Cloud Providers may also be subject to human or software errors, viruses, cybersecurity risks, fraud, spikes in usage, break-ins, sabotage, acts of vandalism, acts of terrorism, and other misconduct. The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could result in lengthy interruptions or delays in and may impact us via service outages and noncompliance with our contractual obligations or business requirements.

Further, we have experienced in the past, and may experience in the future, periodic interruptions, delays, and outages in service and availability with our Cloud Providers due to a variety of factors, including Internet connectivity failures, infrastructure changes, human or software errors, website hosting disruptions, and capacity constraints.

***If we are unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A common stock may decline.***

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. In addition, we have and, in the future, we will be required to furnish a report by management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. We will continue the process of designing, implementing, and testing our internal control over financial reporting required to comply with this obligation, which is time consuming, costly, and complicated. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm may be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K following the date on which we are no longer an "emerging growth company," which may be up to five full years following the date of our initial public offering. If we identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or assert that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting when required, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A common stock could be negatively affected, and we could become subject to investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the SEC, or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

**Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure**

***The consolidation of investment funds or operating businesses of our portfolio companies could make it more difficult to understand our operating performance and could create operational risks for us.***

Under applicable U.S. GAAP, we may be required to consolidate certain of our funds, limited liability companies, partnerships or operating businesses if we determine that these entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs") and where we determine that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The consolidation of such entities could make it difficult for an investor to differentiate our assets, liabilities, and results of operations apart from the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the consolidated VIEs. The assets of the consolidated VIEs are not available to meet our liquidity requirements. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, total assets of our consolidated VIEs reflected in our consolidated balance sheets were $70.2 million and $53.3 million, respectively, and as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, total liabilities of our consolidated VIEs reflected in our consolidated balance sheets were $49.4 million and $33.1 million, respectively.

***Our Bylaws have an exclusive forum for adjudication of disputes provision which limits the forum to the Delaware Court of Chancery for certain stockholder litigation matters actions against us, which may limit an investor's ability to seek what they regard as a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or its directors, officers, employees, or stockholders.***

Section 7.06(a) of Article VII of our Bylaws dictates that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the State of Delaware) is, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions including derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us; an action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty owed by an officer, director, employee or to the stockholders of us; any claim arising under Delaware corporate law, our amended and restated certificate of

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws; and any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of us shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of Section 7.06 of Article VII of our Bylaws.

A Delaware corporation is allowed to mandate in its corporate governance documents a chosen forum for the resolution of state law-based stockholder class actions, derivative suits and other intra-corporate disputes. With respect to such state law claims, our management believes limiting state law-based claims to Delaware will provide the most appropriate outcomes as the risk of another forum misapplying Delaware law is avoided, Delaware courts have a well-developed body of case law and limiting the forum will preclude costly and duplicative litigation and avoids the risk of inconsistent outcomes. Additionally, Delaware Chancery Courts can typically resolve disputes on an accelerated schedule when compared to other forums.

The choice of forum provisions contained in our Bylaws may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or any of our directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. Alternatively, the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other issuers' bylaws and certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that in connection with any applicable action brought against us, a court could find the choice of forum provisions contained in our Bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in such action. As a result, we could incur additional costs associated with resolving such actions in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

***If we were deemed to be an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our businesses.***

An entity will generally be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the Investment Company Act if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• absent an applicable exemption, it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our exemptions from the registration requirements of an investment company under the Investment Company Act are threefold:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our parent company does not meet the asset test component of the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act as summarized above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our investment subsidiaries qualify under the exemption afforded by Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our intermediate subsidiaries qualify under the exemption afforded by Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act.

We are engaged primarily in the business of investing in and providing services for real estate and real estate-related assets and not primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities. We hold ourselves out as a vertically integrated alternative asset management firm and do not propose to engage primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

securities. Accordingly, we do not believe that we are required to register as an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act. Furthermore, we have no material assets other than interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries (within the meaning of the Investment Company Act), which in turn will have either direct interests in real estate assets or limited liability company member or limited partner partnership interests in affiliated funds. We do not believe that, based on current rules and interpretations, the equity interests in our wholly owned subsidiaries or the limited liability company member interests consolidated, or unconsolidated affiliated funds qualify as investment securities under the Investment Company Act.

The Investment Company Act and the rules thereunder contain detailed parameters for the organization and operation of investment companies. Among other things, the Investment Company Act and the rules thereunder limit or prohibit transactions with affiliates, impose limitations on the issuance of debt and equity securities, generally prohibit the issuance of options and impose certain governance requirements. We intend to conduct our operations so that we will not be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. If anything were to happen that would cause us to be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, requirements imposed by the Investment Company Act, including limitations on capital structure, the ability to transact business with affiliates and the ability to compensate senior employees, could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as currently conducted, impair the agreements and arrangements between and among us, our funds and our senior management, or any combination thereof, and have a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may be required to limit the amount of investments that we make as a principal or otherwise conduct our businesses in a manner that does not subject us to the registration and other requirements of the Investment Company Act.

***Extensive regulation of our businesses affects our activities and creates the potential for significant liabilities and penalties. The possibility of increased regulatory focus could result in additional burdens on our business. Changes in tax law and other legislative or regulatory changes could adversely affect us.***

Our fund management and ancillary businesses are subject to extensive regulation. We are subject to regulation, including periodic examinations, by governmental and self-regulatory organizations in the jurisdictions in which we operate. Many of these regulators are empowered to conduct investigations and administrative proceedings that can result in fines, suspensions of personnel or other sanctions, including censure, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer or investment adviser from registration or membership. Even if an investigation or proceeding did not result in a sanction or the sanction imposed against us or our personnel by a regulator were small in monetary amount, the adverse publicity relating to the investigation, proceeding or imposition of these sanctions could harm our reputation and cause us to lose existing clients or fail to gain new fund management or financial advisory clients.

In addition, we regularly rely on exemptions from various requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the U.S. Investment Company Act, and the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, in conducting our fund management activities. These exemptions are sometimes highly complex and may in certain circumstances depend on compliance by third parties whom we do not control. If for any reason these exemptions were to become unavailable to us, we could become subject to regulatory action or third-party claims and our business could be materially and adversely affected. If we were deemed an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our business as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, we may be adversely affected by new or revised legislation or regulations imposed by governmental regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations that supervise the financial markets. We also may be adversely affected by changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules by these governmental authorities and self-regulatory organizations. It is impossible to determine the extent of the impact of any new laws, regulations or initiatives that may be proposed, or whether any of the proposals will become law. Compliance with any new laws or regulations could make compliance more difficult and expensive and affect the manner in which we conduct business.

**Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock**

***The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting control with our executive officers, which will limit your ability to influence the outcome of important transactions.***

Our Class B common stock has 10 votes per share and our Class A common stock has one vote per share. John C. Loeffler, II, our Chief Executive Officer, and Jennifer Schrader, our President and Chief Operating Officer, own all of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock. Together Mr. Loeffler and Ms. Schrader currently exercise approximately 36.1% voting control over the Company as of December 31, 2025. As a result, if they act together, these stockholders will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and approval of

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

significant corporate transactions, such as (i) making changes to our articles of incorporation whether to issue additional common stock and preferred stock, (ii) employment decisions, including compensation arrangements; and (iii) whether to enter into material transactions with related parties. This control may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

***We may not be able to maintain a listing of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq.***

Our Class A common stock is listed on Nasdaq, and we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain such listing. If we violate Nasdaq's listing requirements, or if we fail to meet any of Nasdaq's listing standards, our Class A common stock may be delisted. In addition, our board of directors may determine that the cost of maintaining our listing on a national securities exchange outweighs the benefits of such listing. A delisting of our Class A common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders' ability to buy and sell our Class A common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our Class A common stock. The delisting of our Class A common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital and the value of your investment.

On May 14, 2024, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that, because the closing bid price for our Class A common stock had fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, we no longer comply with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Rule 5550(a)(2) of Nasdaq Listing Rules. Nasdaq's notice had no immediate effect on the listing of our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We were provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until November 11, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. We did not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by November 11, 2024; however, on November 12, 2024, we received written notification from Nasdaq granting our request for a 180-day extension to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our Class A common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to May 12, 2025. On May 16, 2025, we received written notice from Nasdaq that from May 2, 2025 to May 15, 2025, the closing price of our Class A common stock had been $1.00 per share or greater, and accordingly, we had regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and that the matter was closed.

On August 27, 2025, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that due to our stockholders' deficit as reported on our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, we no longer comply with the minimum requirement of $2,500,000 in stockholders' equity for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Rule 5550(b)(1). Nasdaq's notice had no immediate effect on the listing of our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq's listing rules, we had 45 days to provide a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance and if the plan was accepted by Nasdaq, we may be granted an extension of 180-days from receipt of the deficiency letter to evidence compliance. On November 17, 2025, we received notification from Nasdaq that we had regained compliance with the minimum stockholder's equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Rule 5550(b)(1) and that the matter was closed.

***Our share price has in the past and may in the future fluctuate substantially.***

The market price of our Class A common stock has in the past and could in the future be extremely volatile. From the date of our initial public offering in May 2023 to December 31, 2025, the high and low prices of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $13.00 and $1.24, respectively. The future market price of our common stock may be significantly affected by many risk factors listed in this section, and others beyond our control, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition and operating results, including fluctuations in our quarterly and annual results;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overall conditions in our industry and the markets in which we operate or in the economy as a whole;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in laws or regulations applicable to our operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated changes in our growth rate relative to our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• additions or departures of key personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• issuance of new or updated research or reports by securities analysts;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in the valuation of companies perceived by investors to be comparable to us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• litigation matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcement or expectation of additional financing efforts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sales of our Class A common stock by us or our stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• share price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading volume levels of our shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the expiration of contractual lock-up agreements with our executive officers, directors and stockholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general economic and market conditions.

In addition, the market price for our Class A common stock may be influenced by many factors related to the Chainlink protocol and our use of LINK as a treasury asset, including: our LINK treasury strategy; developments in the Chainlink ecosystem; regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries related to digital assets and blockchain; variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us that also have a digital asset treasury strategy; and general economic, industry and market conditions in the cryptocurrency industry.

Furthermore, the stock markets have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, and market conditions such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively impact the market price of our Class A common stock. In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

***Future sales and issuances of our Class A common stock or rights to purchase Class A common stock, including pursuant to our equity incentive plans, could result in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause the stock price of our Class A common stock to decline.***

In the future, we may sell Class A common stock, convertible securities or other equity securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner that we determine. We also expect to issue Class A common stock to employees, consultants, and directors pursuant to our equity incentive plans. If we sell common stock, convertible securities or other equity securities in subsequent transactions, or Class A common stock is issued pursuant to equity incentive plans, investors may be materially diluted. New investors in such subsequent transactions could gain rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our Class A common stock.

***Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.***

As a public company, we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. We designed our disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information we must disclose in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

***If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may be unable to accurately report our operating results, meet our reporting obligations, or prevent fraud.***

As a public company, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting in our annual report on Form 10-K, beginning with our annual report for the fiscal year

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

ending December 31, 2024. In addition, once we cease to be an "emerging growth company" as such term is defined under the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm may be required to attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us. In addition, as a public company, our reporting obligations may place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. We may be unable to timely complete our evaluation testing and any required remediation.

During the course of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we may identify other weaknesses and deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Generally, if we fail to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, we could suffer material misstatements in our financial statements and fail to meet our reporting obligations, which would likely cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. This could in turn limit our access to capital markets and harm our results of operations. Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose us to increased risk of fraud or misuse of corporate assets and subject us to potential delisting from the stock exchange on which we list, regulatory investigations, and civil or criminal sanctions.

***We are an emerging growth company, and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.***

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an emerging growth company until 2028, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which requires the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates to exceed $700.0 million as of the prior June 30th, and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may still qualify as a "smaller reporting company" which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption and, therefore, we are not subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. As a result, changes in rules of U.S. GAAP or their interpretation, the adoption of new guidance or the application of existing guidance to changes in our business could significantly affect our financial position and results of operations.

***We are a "controlled company" within the meaning of the listing rules of Nasdaq and, as a result, can rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to stockholders of other companies.***

John C. Loeffler, II, our Chief Executive Officer, and Jennifer Schrader, our President and Chief Operating Officer, through ownership of all our outstanding shares of Class B common stock, control a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock. As a result, are a "controlled company" within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq. Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a "controlled company" but may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including:

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the requirement that a majority of our Board of Directors consist of "independent directors";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the requirement that we have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities.

Although we do not intend to rely on the "controlled company" exemptions to Nasdaq's corporate governance rules, we could elect to rely on these exemptions in the future. If we elected to rely on the "controlled company" exemptions, a majority of the members of our board of directors might not be independent directors, our nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors, and you would not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to Nasdaq's corporate governance rules.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.***

The trading market for our Class A common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. Moreover, if our operating results do not meet the expectations of the investor community, one or more of the analysts who cover us may change their recommendations regarding us, and our stock price could decline.

***We have never paid dividends on our common stock, and we do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. Consequently, any gains from an investment in our Class A common stock will likely depend on whether the price of our Class A common stock increases.***

We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings for use in the operation of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their Class A common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

***Our charter documents and Delaware law and the voting control exercised by our founders could prevent a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also reduce the market price of our stock.***

Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of us. These provisions could also make it more difficult for stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. These provisions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• authorizing our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could discourage a takeover attempt or delay changes in control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prohibiting stockholder action by written consent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limiting the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• requiring advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals.

These provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of our board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of our management. In addition, the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporate Law ("DGCL") govern us. These provisions may prohibit large stockholders, in particular those owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, from merging or combining with us for a certain period of time without the consent of our board of directors.

These and other provisions in our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws and under Delaware law, together with the voting control possessed by our founders, could discourage potential takeover attempts, reduce the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock and result in the market price of our common stock being lower than it would be without these provisions.

***Claims for indemnification by our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.***

Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

In addition, as permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, our amended and restated bylaws and our indemnification agreements that we have entered into with our directors and officers provide that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will indemnify our directors and officers for serving us in those capacities or for serving other business enterprises at our request, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation may indemnify such person if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may, in our discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is permitted by applicable law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we are required to advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and officers in connection with defending a proceeding, except that such directors or officers shall undertake to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will not be obligated pursuant to our amended and restated bylaws to indemnify a person with respect to proceedings initiated by that person against us or our other indemnitees, except with respect to proceedings authorized by our board of directors or brought to enforce a right to indemnification;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the rights conferred in our amended and restated bylaws are not exclusive, and we are authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors, officers, employees and agents and to obtain insurance to indemnify such persons; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may not retroactively amend our amended and restated bylaw provisions to reduce our indemnification obligations to directors, officers, employees and agents.

**Risks Related to Our Business and LINK Strategy**

***Our financial results and the market price of our common stock may be affected by the prices of LINK.***

As part of our capital allocation strategy, we plan to continue to invest in LINK. The price of LINK has historically been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. Any decrease in the fair value of LINK below our carrying value could require us to incur a loss due to the decrease in fair market value, and such a charge could be material to our financial results for the applicable reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings. Any decrease in reported earnings or increased volatility of such earnings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock. In addition, if investors view the value of our Class A common stock as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our LINK holdings, the price of LINK may significantly influence the market price of our Class A common stock.

***Our LINK holdings are less liquid than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.***

Historically, crypto markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in their entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our LINK at favorable prices or at all. Further, we hold LINK with centralized custodians and transact with trade execution partners. These entities do not have the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation. If a custodian were to become insolvent, it is possible that we face delays or difficulties obtaining our LINK, or may not be able to obtain all of the LINK that we had deposited with the custodian. We may also be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered LINK or otherwise generate funds using our LINK, especially during times of market instability or when the price of LINK has declined significantly.

***Our Treasury Reserve Policy is new and has not been tested over time.***

There can be no assurance that the Treasury Reserve Policy will achieve its intended objectives or that our digital asset acquisition strategy will be successful. If the price of LINK were to decrease or our digital asset acquisition strategy otherwise proves unsuccessful, our financial condition, results of operations, and the market price of our Class A common stock could be materially adversely impacted. Some investors and other market participants may disagree with our digital asset acquisition strategy or actions we undertake to implement it.

***If we were deemed to be an "investment company" under Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), the applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as conducted and could have a material adverse effect on our businesses.***

An entity will generally be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the Investment Company Act if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• absent an applicable exemption, it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. With respect to our existing core operating business, our exemptions from the registration requirements of an investment company under the Investment Company Act are threefold:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our parent company does not meet the asset test component of the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act as summarized above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our investment subsidiaries qualify under the exemption afforded by Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our intermediate subsidiaries qualify under the exemption afforded by Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act.

With respect to our core operating business, we are engaged primarily in the business of investing in and providing services for real estate and real estate-related assets and not primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities. We hold ourselves out as a vertically integrated alternative asset management firm and do not propose to engage primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. Accordingly, we do not believe that we are required to register as an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act. Furthermore, with respect to our core operating business, we have no material assets other than interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries (within the meaning of the Investment Company Act), which in turn will have either direct interests in real estate assets or limited liability company member or limited partner partnership interests in affiliated funds. We do not believe that, based on current rules and interpretations, the equity interests in our wholly owned subsidiaries or the limited liability company member interests consolidated, or unconsolidated affiliated funds qualify as investment securities under the Investment Company Act.

With respect to our Treasury Reserve Policy, LINK and other digital assets are relatively novel and the application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of LINK. The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of LINK or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer LINK. If LINK or our use of LINK is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, the additional regulatory restrictions imposed by such a determination could adversely affect the market price of LINK and, in turn, adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock. If LINK or our use of LINK is determined to be an investment security under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), we may need to take steps to reduce our holdings of LINK as a percentage of our total assets, which may include selling LINK that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in assets that are not considered to be investment securities under the 1940 Act. In addition, such a determination could adversely affect the market price of LINK and in turn adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The Investment Company Act and the rules thereunder contain detailed parameters for the organization and operation of investment companies. We intend to conduct our operations so that we will not be deemed to be an investment company under the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Investment Company Act. If anything were to happen that would cause us to be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act and if we are not able to come within an available exemption or exclusion under the Investment Company Act, then we would have to register as an investment company and this would could make it impractical for us to continue our businesses as currently conducted, and could have a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may be required to limit the amount of investments that we make as a principal or otherwise conduct our businesses in a manner that does not subject us to the registration and other requirements of the Investment Company Act.

***We are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers.***

This means, among other things, that the execution of or changes to our Treasury Reserve Policy or our LINK strategy, our use of leverage, the manner in which our LINK is custodied, our ability to engage in transactions with affiliated parties and our operating and investment activities generally are not subject to the extensive legal and regulatory requirements and prohibitions that apply to regulated investment vehicles. As a result, investors in our company may be exposed to greater volatility, concentration risk and governance discretion than they would be if we were subject to the protections afforded to regulated investment vehicles.

***We may be subject to additional tax liability if regulation or policy changes adversely affect the tax treatment of rewards from staking LINK.***

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of rewards from staking digital assets such as LINK remains uncertain and is currently under the subject of debate and regulatory attention. If regulation or policy changes, or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, results in adverse tax treatment of rewards from staking LINK, we could be subject to increased audits by the IRS and additional tax liabilities.

***We may face operational, technological, and security risks related to the acquisition and custody of our LINK holdings, including the loss of private keys required to access our LINK holdings and smart contract related losses and vulnerabilities.***

We may use third-party exchanges or brokerage firms that we believe to be reputable to purchase LINK for our treasury to the extent LINK is available on such exchanges. As part of our process in determining transactions with third-party exchanges, we search for reputable exchanges that have industry standard policies and procedures in place regarding data security and customer diligence related to anti-money laundering, Office of Foreign Assets Control and know your client rules and regulations. If any of these third-party exchanges no longer meet our standards or if there is a decrease in reputable third-party exchanges, we may need to find additional counterparties and enter into additional agreements that could be on less favorable terms, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or the results of our operations.

Substantially all of the LINK we own is and will be held in custody accounts at U.S.-based institutional-grade digital asset custodians, such as Coinbase Custody. Accordingly, we will depend on such custodians to maintain industry standard policies and procedures and to implement satisfactory internal controls. If such custodians fail to maintain industry standard policies surrounding custodianship, our business, financial condition or the results of our operations may be materially adversely affected. Multiple custodians may utilize similar wallet infrastructure, cloud service providers or software systems, which could increase systemic technology risk. Such custodians have duties to safeguard our private keys. LINK are controllable only with both the unique public key and private key(s) relating to the local or online digital wallet in which the LINK are held. Private keys must be safeguarded and kept private in order to prevent a third party from accessing the LINK held in such wallet. To the extent the private key(s) for a digital wallet are lost or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private key(s) is accessible, neither we nor our custodians will be able to access the LINK held in the related digital wallet.

Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular concern with respect to our LINK. A successful security breach or cyberattack could result in a partial or total loss of our LINK in a manner that may not be covered by insurance or the liability provisions of the custody agreements with the custodians who hold our LINK. In addition, the implementation and management of our digital asset treasury strategy may require new systems, controls, and expertise, and may expose us to operational risks not previously encountered, including risks related to blockchain technology, smart contracts, and network outages.

As part of our Treasury Reserve Policy, we intend to engage in staking or other permitted activities that involve the use of "smart contracts" or decentralized applications. The use of smart contracts or decentralized applications entails certain risks including risks stemming from the existence of administrative or privileged access controls ("admin keys") in third-party protocols or applications that could be exploited, potentially leading to a loss of our LINK. Smart contracts and decentralized applications may contain bugs, security vulnerabilities or poorly designed permission structures that could result in the irreversible loss of our LINK. Exploits, including those stemming from admin key misuse, admin key compromise, or protocol flaws, have occurred in the past and may occur in the future.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

***We may suffer losses due to staking activities***

Staking LINK requires LINK to be transferred into smart contracts on the Ethereum mainnet. If the Ethereum or Chainlink protocol or source code were to fail to behave as expected, suffer cybersecurity attacks or hacks, experience security issues, or encounter other problems, such staked LINK may be irretrievably lost. In addition, the Chainlink protocol dictates requirements for participation in staking activities and may impose penalties, such as slashing (the forfeiting of staked LINK), if the relevant activities are not performed correctly. As a result, our staked LINK may be exposed to risks associated with node operator performance or other staking activities, which may result in staking rewards less than expected or the loss of LINK.

***The irreversibility of digital asset transactions exposes us to risks of theft, loss and human error, which could negatively impact our business.***

Digital asset transactions are not, from an administrative perspective, reversible without the consent and active participation of the recipient of the transaction or, in theory, control or consent of a majority of the processing power on that digital asset network. Once a transaction has been verified and recorded in a block that is added to the blockchain, an incorrect transfer of digital assets or a theft of digital assets generally will not be reversible, and we may not be capable of seeking compensation for any such transfer or theft.

***The change in use of proceeds from our ELOC facility to include digital asset acquisitions may increase risk and reduce liquidity.***

The Company's use of proceeds from its ELOC facility may now include the acquisition of digital assets, which are subject to the risks described above. Investors should be aware that funds previously expected to be used for general corporate purposes, working capital, or other traditional uses may now be allocated to the purchase of LINK and other digital assets, which may not provide the same liquidity or risk profile as cash or cash equivalents.

***Our Treasury Reserve Policy exposes us to risk of non-performance by counterparties.***

Our Treasury Reserve Policy exposes us to the risk of non-performance by counterparties, whether contractual or otherwise. Risk of non-performance includes inability or refusal of a counterparty to perform because of a deterioration in the counterparty's financial condition and liquidity or for any other reason. For example, our execution partners, custodians, or other counterparties might fail to perform in accordance with the terms of our agreements with them, which could result in a loss of LINK, a loss of the opportunity to generate funds, or other losses.

***Our digital asset treasury strategy could create complications with third party service providers, such as insurance companies, banking entities and auditors, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business.***

Our digital asset treasury strategy could create complications with third party service providers that may place a high risk on companies engaging in such a strategy. For example, third-party service providers may refuse to enter into commercially acceptable contracts with us and other companies that engage in similar treasury strategies with digital assets. This could have a number of adverse impacts on the operation of our business, including increased costs or loss of access to insurance, banking, or audit services.

***Technological obsolescence and competition could adversely affect the value of LINK.***

The digital asset ecosystem is characterized by rapid technological innovation, short development cycles, and intense competition among blockchain protocols and related infrastructure providers. If the Chainlink protocol is unable to evolve to address increased competition or if new technologies are adopted in place of Chainlink, the value of LINK could decline, adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations.

***The emergence or growth of other digital assets or other technologies, including those with significant private or public sector backing, could have a negative impact on the price of LINK and, consequently, adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.***

The emergence or growth of digital assets other than LINK may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. If the mechanisms for validating transactions in other digital assets are perceived as superior to those used by the Chainlink protocol, those digital assets could gain market share relative to LINK.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Developments in mathematics or technology, including algebraic geometry, digital computing, quantum computing, and/or artificial intelligence could result in the cryptography used by Chainlink or other blockchains becoming insecure or ineffective, which could cause the value of LINK to decline, adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations.

***The due diligence procedures conducted by us and our liquidity providers to mitigate transaction risk may fail to prevent transactions with a sanctioned entity.***

We will execute trades through U.S.-based liquidity providers, and rely on these third parties to implement controls and procedures to mitigate the risk of transacting with sanctioned entities. There is no guarantee that these procedures will be effective, and if we are found to have transacted in LINK with bad actors or sanctioned persons, we may be subject to regulatory proceedings and restrictions.

***The launch of central bank digital currencies ("CBDCs") may adversely impact our business.***

The introduction of a government-issued digital currency could eliminate or reduce the need or demand for private-sector issued crypto currencies, or significantly limit their utility. National governments around the world could introduce CBDCs, which could in turn limit the size of the market opportunity for LINK and other digital assets.

***Intellectual property disputes related to the open-source structure of digital asset networks expose us to risks related to software development, security vulnerabilities and potential disruptions to digital asset technology could threaten our ability to operate.***

Digital asset networks are typically open-source projects and, although there may be an influential group of leaders in the network community, generally there is often no official developer or group of developers that formally controls the digital asset network. Without guaranteed financial incentives, there may be insufficient resources to address emerging issues, upgrade security or implement necessary improvements to the network in a timely manner. If the digital asset network's software is not properly maintained or developed, it could become vulnerable to security threats, operational inefficiencies and reduced trust, all of which could negatively impact the digital assets' long-term viability and our business.

**Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments**

None.

**Item 1C. Cybersecurity**

Companies utilizing technology are subject to threats to or failures of any or all aspects of their cybersecurity programs, collectively cybersecurity risks. We take a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity risk management and take securing customer, employee and other data entrusted to us seriously. We have established standards, policies, procedures and practices for assessment, identification, and effective management of material cybersecurity risks. We devote significant resources to implement and maintain security measures appropriate to regulatory requirements and customer expectations, and we will continue making appropriate investments to maintain the security of our data.

We can provide no guarantee that our cybersecurity program, policies, and procedures will be completely effective in every instance, especially when it comes to the constantly evolving nature of cybersecurity threats. Our Risk Factors include further detail about the cybersecurity risks we face on an ongoing basis. We believe that risks from prior cybersecurity threats, including previous cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected our business to date. We can provide no assurance that there will not be cybersecurity incidents in the future or that they will not materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

**Risk Management and Strategy**

Our approach for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats are integrated into our overall risk management strategy and are based on commonly accepted frameworks established by the International Organization for Standardization, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and other applicable industry standards. Our cybersecurity program focuses on the following key areas:

***Collaboration***

Cybersecurity risks are identified and addressed comprehensively in a cross-functional approach. Key security, risk, and compliance stakeholders meet regularly to develop strategies for preserving the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

and our customer information. We have controls and procedures in place to ensure prompt escalation of certain cybersecurity incidents so that decisions regarding public disclosure and reporting of such incidents can be made by management and the Board in a timely manner.

***Risk Assessment***

We monitor and assess cybersecurity risks using the same cross-functional approach and since our cybersecurity program relies on certain third parties, these third parties are included in the assessment of cybersecurity risks. This approach drives alignment on the prioritization of initiatives to maintain our security controls.

***Technical Safeguards***

We deploy technical safeguards designed to protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats. Such safeguards are regularly evaluated, adjusted and improved based on vulnerability assessments, cybersecurity threat intelligence and incident response experience.

***Incident Response and Recovery Planning***

We maintain appropriate incident response and recovery plans and periodically perform tests to evaluate the effectiveness of these plans. Our incident response and recovery plans include guidance to our employees, management, and our board on response to cybersecurity incidents.

***Third-Party Risk Management***

We have appropriate controls designed to identify and mitigate cybersecurity risks associated with the use of third-party service providers. Such providers are subject to security risk assessments at the time of onboarding, contract renewal, and upon detection of an increase in risk profile. We require our providers to meet appropriate security requirements, and we investigate security incidents that have impacted our third-party providers, as appropriate.

***Education and Awareness***

Employees are regularly reminded of the importance of handling and protecting customer and our data. Employees receive appropriate policies and annual privacy and security training to enhance awareness and reinforce desired behaviors.

***External Assessments***

Our cybersecurity policies, standards, processes and practices are regularly assessed by third-party business partners, consultants and cybersecurity information technology consultants.

**Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

*The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors. For a complete discussion of such risk factors, see the section in this report entitled "Risk Factors".*

**Overview**

Over the past 16 years, we have grown into a leading diversified alternative asset management firm, with more than $2.6 billion in Managed Assets, comprised of $0.8 billion of AUM and $1.9 billion of AUD. Our primary goal is to drive shareholder value by enhancing the wealth of the accredited investor clients seeking to make investments in real and digital assets.

Management evaluates our business based on (i) recurring fee-related earnings, (ii) growth in embedded performance allocations within our managed funds, and (iii) the strategic accumulation and yield generation from digital asset holdings. Because performance allocations are recognized under U.S. GAAP only when they are no longer probable of significant reversal (generally upon realization events), U.S. GAAP results may not reflect the economic progress of carried interest value creation within our managed portfolio at a given reporting date.

***Digital Asset Platform***

In August 2025, our Board of Directors approved our Treasury Reserve Policy designed to support our balance sheet strategy, liquidity profile, and long-term growth initiatives. Under this policy, we allocate a portion of our corporate treasury to digital assets that we believe demonstrate institutional utility and adoption potential, beginning with LINK.

LINK is the decentralized oracle network intended to enable smart contracts and traditional systems to securely interact with real-world data. We selected LINK as our initial digital asset holding based on management's assessment of its core role in blockchain infrastructure supporting the growth of tokenization, decentralized finance, and real-world asset integration. Management believes that LINK's enterprise adoption, technology maturity, and network resilience make LINK an attractive long-term holding relative to other digital assets at similar stages of adoption.

Since adoption of the policy, we have raised capital through equity issuances and deployed a portion of those proceeds to accumulate LINK as a long-term treasury asset. These holdings are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value as of December 31, 2025. Changes in the fair value of our LINK are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025. We expect continued volatility in the fair value of our digital asset holdings, which may materially affect reported results in future periods.

We have announced our intention to stake a portion of our LINK holdings once operational readiness and governance requirements are completed. Staking generally involves committing tokens to participate in network security and may generate a yield in the form of additional LINK tokens. Staking is a critical part of the LINK ecosystem and provides an opportunity for us to generate passive yield on its holdings while contributing to the stability and reliability of the broader network. Management estimates it may earn a yield of 3% to 9% annualized, based upon internal estimates of the potential to stake our LINK treasury. Any staking yield is subject to protocol rules, market conditions, operational factors and regulatory considerations. Actual results may differ materially from expectations.

In parallel, we are evaluating the potential to operate or participate in LINK validator-related activities, which could include third party arrangements or internal capabilities. Validator-related activities play a central role in maintaining network consensus and facilitating data integrity. Revenues generated from staking or related activities, if any, would be evaluated by management in the context of our liquidity, balance sheet strategy and capital allocation within our digital asset treasury and asset management platform business.

We may consider additional products or investment offerings over time that provide exposure to digital assets or blockchain infrastructure, subject to market conditions, regulatory considerations, and investor demand. These future offerings could expand our AUM and generate recurring management and performance fees, consistent with our existing real estate fund model.

Additionally, we are evaluating potential applications of blockchain technology within our real estate investment platform, which could include processes intended to improve operational efficiency, investor servicing and investor accessibility. Specifically, we intend to tokenize real-world assets, including real estate projects and fund interests, to enable fractional ownership, enhance

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

liquidity, and streamline investor reporting and fund administration. Tokenized offerings could also serve as a new fundraising channel for us, allowing us to reach a broader base of global investors through compliant, blockchain-enabled investment vehicles.

The Board of Directors and management team view the LINK strategy and broader blockchain initiatives as a natural evolution of our mission: to enhance the wealth of our accredited investor clients by making alternative investments more accessible, transparent, and profitable for investors. Through the integration of digital assets, blockchain infrastructure and tokenization technology, we seek to position ourself at the forefront of the convergence between traditional finance and decentralized finance.

***Private Equity Real Estate Platform***

We operate a Private Equity Real Estate ("PERE") platform that creates, manages, and services middle-market investment funds, private syndications, and direct investments focused on real estate investment strategies. To built our funds, we market directly to high net worth and ultra high net worth investors with our in-house fundraising team to registered investment advisors and broker-dealers with our in-house wholesaling team.

We have a number of development, redevelopment, construction, and entitlement projects that are underway or are in the planning stages, which we define as AUD. This category includes projects to be build on underdeveloped land and projects to be built and constructed on undeveloped lands, some of which are on land owned by our funds or are under contract to purchase. Completing these development activities may ultimately result in income-producing assets, assets we may sell to third parties, or both.

As of December 31, 2025, we are actively developing 1,796 multifamily units, 697 single family units, 3.7 million square feet of commercial and industrial, and 3.5 million square feet of office and retail. If all of these projects are brought to completion, the total cost capitalized to these projects, which represents total current estimated costs to complete the development and construction of such projects by us or a third party, is $1.9 billion, which we expect would be funded through a combination of undeployed fund cash, third-party equity, project sales, tax credit financing and similar incentives, and secured debt financing.

We strive to provide investors attractive risk-adjusted returns by offering a balance of (i) structured offerings and ease of ownership, (ii) a pipeline of investment opportunities, primarily projects that range in value between $5.0 million and $50.0 million, and (iii) an integrated execution and processing platform. Our investment strategy leverages the local market intelligence and real-time data we gain from our operations to evaluate current investments, generate proprietary transaction flow, and implement various asset management strategies.

As an alternative asset manager, we offer a full suite of support services and employ a vertically integrated approach to investment management. Our asset management activities are complemented with transaction and advisory services including development and construction management, acquisition and disposition expertise, and fund formation, which we believe differentiate us from other asset management firms. We earn the following fees from providing these services under the Platform:

***Asset Management Revenues***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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 us to provide management services, representing a performance obligation that we satisfy over time. With respect to CHT, we earn a fund management fee of 0.7% of CHT's enterprise value and is reimbursed for certain costs incurred on behalf of CHT.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Organizational & Offering fees include fund set-up fees and are a one-time fee earned during the initial formation, administration, and set-up of fund products we distribute and manage. These fees are recognized at the point in time when the performance under the contract is complete.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financing fees are earned for services we perform 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, we earn fees for guaranteeing certain loans, representing a performance obligation that we satisfy over time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Real estate development revenues are generally based on two fee-based contracts, not to exceed 6.0%. The first, a real estate development contract that provides for up to 4.0% of the total expected costs of the development and is paid for services performed by Caliber Development, LLC as the principal developer of our projects. These services may include

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

obtaining new entitlements or zoning changes and managing and supervising third-party developers. The second, a construction management contract that provides for up to 4.0% of the total expected costs of the construction project for services provided managing general contractors with respect to the construction of the properties owned by the funds. 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, construction management fee revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Brokerage fees are earned at a point in time at fixed rates for services performed related to acquisitions, dispositions, leasing, and financing transactions.

***Estimated Performance Allocations***

Performance allocations are foundational to our long-term economic model.

As of December 31, 2025, based on internal asset-level business plans and projected exit assumptions, we estimate aggregate unrealized performance allocations of approximately $104.0 million. This estimate represents our contractual share of projected profits after satisfaction of preferred returns and return of capital.

The estimate is derived from:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Asset-level discounted cash flow analyses

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Underwriting models used for capital allocation decisions

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Valuation methodologies consistent with fair value measurement frameworks

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Independent third-party valuation work

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review procedures performed by our external auditors when applicable

Assets that are impaired, or where current projections do not support achieving returns above the preferred return threshold, are assigned zero carried interest value and are excluded from the $104.0 million estimate unless and until business plan revisions support a reasonable expectation of future performance allocation realization. Consistent with U.S. GAAP, the $104.0 million of estimated unrealized performance allocations is not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

Management believes disclosure of unrealized performance allocations provides important insight into embedded economic value and long-term earnings potential.

*Sensitivity of Estimated Performance Allocations*

The performance allocation estimate is sensitive to changes in projected exit values of underlying assets. A 5% increase or decrease in projected exit values across the managed portfolio would result in an approximate $5.2 million increase or decrease in estimated performance allocations. Actual realized performance allocations may differ materially from current estimates based on changes in market conditions, operating performance, financing availability, or timing of realization events.

**Segments**

Our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our Chief Executive Officer, John C. Loeffler. The 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 investment funds (intercompany eliminations required by U.S. GAAP) and noncontrolling interests. Management concluded that the consolidated investment funds do not meet the requirements in ASC 280, Segment Reporting, of operating segments, as our CODM does not review the operating results of these investment funds for the purposes of allocating resources, assessing performance or determining whether additional investments or advances will be made to these funds. The investment funds are consolidated based on the requirement in ASC 810, Consolidation, as we were determined to be the primary beneficiary of each of these variable interest entities since it 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.

We were originally founded as Caliber Companies, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, organized under the laws of Arizona, and commenced operations in January 2009. In November 2014, we reorganized as a Nevada corporation and in June 2018, we reincorporated in the state of Delaware. On our website we make available, free of charge, information about us and our investments. None of the information on our website is deemed to be part of this report.

**Trends Affecting Our Business**

Our business is driven by trends which affect the following:

1)**Capital formation:** any trend which increases or decreases investors' knowledge of alternative investments, desire to acquire them, access to acquire them, and knowledge and appreciation of us as a potential provider, will affect our ability to attract and raise new capital. Capital formation also drives investment acquisitions, which contributes to our revenues.

2)**Investment acquisition:** any trend which increases or decreases the supply of middle-market real estate projects or loans, the accessibility of developments or development incentives, or enhances or detracts from our ability to access those projects will affect our ability to generate revenue. Coincidentally, investment acquisitions, or the rights to acquire an investment, drive capital formation, which acts as a growth engine for the Platform.

3)**Project execution:** any trend which increases or decreases the costs of execution on a real estate project, including materials pricing, labor pricing, access to materials, delays due to governmental action, and the general labor market, will affect our ability to generate revenues.

Our business depends in large part on our ability to raise capital for our funds from investors. Since our inception, we have continued to successfully raise capital into our funds with our total capital raised through December 31, 2025 of $769.3 million. Our success at raising new capital into our funds is impacted by the extent to which new investors see alternative assets as a viable option for capital appreciation and/or income generation. Since our ability to raise new capital into our funds is dependent upon the availability and willingness of investors to direct their investment dollars into our products, our financial performance is sensitive in part to changes in overall economic conditions that affect investment behaviors. The demand from investors is dependent upon the type of asset, the type of return it will generate (current cash flow, long-term capital gains, or both) and the actual return earned by our fund investors relative to other comparable or substitute products. General economic factors and conditions, including the general interest rate environment and unemployment rates, may affect an investor's ability and desire to invest in real estate. For example, a significant interest rate increase could cause a projected rate of return to be insufficient after considering other risk exposures. Additionally, if weakness in the economy emerges and actual or expected default rates increase, investors in our funds may delay or reduce their investments; however, we believe our approach to investing and the capabilities that we manage throughout the deal cycle will continue to offer an attractive value proposition to investors.

While we have had historical successes, there can be no assurance that fundraising for our new and existing funds will experience similar success. If we were unable to raise such capital, we would be unable to deploy such capital into investments, which would materially reduce our revenues and cash flow and adversely affect our financial condition.

We remain confident about our ability to find, identify, and source new investment opportunities that meet the requirements and return profile of our investment funds despite headwinds associated with increased asset valuations, competition and increased overall cost of credit. We continue to identify strategic acquisitions on off-market terms and anticipate that this trend will continue. We are at a point in our investment cycle where some of our funds have begun to exit significant parts of their portfolios while other are approaching a potential harvesting phase. We have complemented these cycles with other newer funds that will maintain management fees while providing continued sources of activity.

Acquiring new assets includes being able to negotiate favorable loans on both a short and long-term basis. We strive to forecast and project our returns using assumptions about, among other things, the types of loans that we might expect the market to extend for a particular type of asset. This becomes more complex when the asset also requires construction financing. We may also need to refinance existing loans that are due to mature. Factors that affect these arrangements include the interest rate and economic environment, the estimated fair value of real property, and the profitability of the asset's historical operations. These capital market conditions may affect the renewal or replacement of our credit agreements, some of which have maturity dates occurring within the next 12 months. Obtaining such financing is not guaranteed and is largely dependent on market conditions and other factors.

The advancement of real estate investment-oriented technology, sometimes referred to as "proptech", offers us the benefit of new and innovative technologies to better execute on capital formation strategies, investment acquisition strategies, and investment

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

management strategies. In recent years, we have added to our technology stack with systems that we believe lead the market in their specific ability to enhance execution on our projects. Several of these technologies seek to incorporate investments in artificial intelligence, which we believe will be a prevailing trend in helping us to enhance our project execution going forward.

Regional conflicts and instability, such as those in Israel, Ukraine, and Iran can have significant impacts on global markets and economies and investor perception and tolerance for risk. These conflicts could lead to increased volatility in financial markets, disrupt supply chains, and change investor appetite for investments in alternative assets.

**Business Environment**

Global markets are experiencing significant volatility driven by concerns over inflation, elevated interest rates, global tariffs, slowing economic growth and geopolitical uncertainty. The annual inflation rate in the United States increased to 9.1% in June 2022, the highest rate since November 1981, but decreased to 2.7% in December 2025. As a result, from January 1, 2022 through September 18, 2024, the Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate by 525 basis points. Subsequently, the Federal Reserve decreased the federal funds rate by 169 basis points through December 31, 2025, resulting in a target rate range of 3.50% to 3.75% at December 31, 2025. The rising interest rates, coupled with periods of significant equity and credit market volatility may potentially make it more difficult for us to find attractive opportunities for our funds to exit and realize value from their existing investments. Historically, inflation has tended to favor new capital formation for our funds, as investors seek opportunities that can hedge against rising costs, such as real estate investments. In addition, the increase in interest rates has put pressure on owners of existing real estate to sell assets as their loans mature. Combined with a shrinking pool of buyers, the commercial and residential real estate markets in our favored geographies are moving away from a seller's market and closer to a buyer's market. It remains to be seen if a stressed or distressed market may emerge, similar to our early years of operations. In both a buyer's market and a stressed or distressed market, we expect our business model to outperform, as our direct access to investor capital and our ability to invest in a variety of asset classes allows us to move with the market and take advantage of potentially attractive prices. For project execution, inflation has increased the cost of nearly all building materials and labor types, increasing the cost of construction and renovation of our funds' assets.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted, resulting in significant and lasting changes to the Qualified Opportunity Zone ("QOZ") program. Most notably, the OBBBA eliminates the program's original sunset date of December 31, 2026, and extends the QOZ program indefinitely. This legislative change could potentially impact our real estate investment strategy, particularly for our funds with existing or future exposure to QOZ-designed assets.

We are actively evaluating the potential long-term implications of the OBBBA, including increased investor demand for QOZ-aligned strategies and shifts in capital deployment across target markets. However, the full scope and operational impact of these changes remain subject to further guidance. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the legislative changes will lead to improved fund performance or investor outcomes. We will continue to monitor developments and adjust its strategies as appropriate to align with the evolving QOZ landscape.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, total revenues were $20.1 million and $51.1 million, respectively, representing a period-over-period decrease of 60.7%. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in consolidated fund revenues as a result of the deconsolidation of CHT and Caliber Hospitality, LP and its consolidated subsidiaries, Elliot, DT Mesa, and CFIF III, which were deconsolidated during the year ended December 31, 2024 and TCC, which was deconsolidated during the year ended December 31, 2025. See the Segment Analysis section below in which revenues are presented on a basis that deconsolidates our consolidated funds. As a result, segment revenues are different than those presented on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, because these fees are eliminated in consolidation when they are derived from a consolidated fund.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, total expenses were $27.7 million and $64.4 million, respectively, representing a period-over-period decrease of 57.1%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in consolidated fund expenses as a result of the deconsolidation of CHT and Caliber Hospitality, LP and its consolidated subsidiaries, Elliot, DT Mesa, and CFIF III, which were deconsolidated during the year ended December 31, 2024 and TCC, which was deconsolidated during the year ended December 31, 2025.

The decrease in fund management fees is primarily due to a decrease in organizational and offering fees as there were no new funds created during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the three funds created during the same period in 2024.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Fund management fees are based on a combination of 1.0% to 1.5% of the unreturned capital contributions in each fund and 0.7% of CHT's enterprise value.

The decrease in development and construction fees is primarily due to a decrease in development activities, specifically, a decrease in pre-construction milestones reached in the period. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we completed 11 milestones as compared to 30 milestones during the same period in 2024.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, total expenses were $21.7 million and $33.1 million, respectively, representing a period-over-period decrease of 34.3%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in operating costs related to payroll and payroll related expenses from our cost reduction efforts and a decrease in bad debt expense.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, change in fair value of digital assets was $5.8 million. During the year ended December 31, 2025, our DAT strategy investment in LINK tokens generated a loss due to a decline in the spot price of our token which was part of a broader market correction in digital tokens and assets. There was no comparable activity during the same period in 2024.

**Balance Sheets - *Platform (Unconsolidated)***

The following table and discussion provide insight into our unconsolidated balance sheets of the asset management Platform for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Unconsolidated assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity are presented on a basis that deconsolidates our consolidated funds (intercompany eliminations). Total assets, total liabilities, and total stockholders' equity are different than those presented on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, because certain accounts (including notes receivable, due from/to related parties, and investments in unconsolidated entities) are eliminated in consolidation when they are due from/to consolidated funds. Furthermore, we are required to add to this balance sheet, assets and liabilities and equity of the consolidated funds which are items that are not available to a shareholder of CWD. See the Non-GAAP Measures section below for reconciliations of the unconsolidated results to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

**Investment Valuations**

The investments that are held by our funds are generally considered to be illiquid and have no readily ascertainable market value. We value these investments based on our estimate of their fair value as of the date of determination. We estimate the fair value of our fund's investments based on several inputs built within forecasting models. The models generally rely on discounted cash flow analysis and other techniques and may include independently sourced market parameters. The material estimates and assumptions used in these models include the timing and expected amounts of cash flows, income and expenses for the property, the appropriateness of discount rates used, overall capitalization rate, and, in some cases, the ability to execute, estimated proceeds and timing of expected sales and financings. Most of our assets utilize the income approach to value the property. Where appropriate, management may obtain additional supporting evidence of values from methods generally utilized in the real estate investment industry, such as appraisal reports and broker price opinion reports.

With respect to the underlying factors that led to the change in fair value in the current year, we identify assets that are undervalued and/or underperforming as part of our acquisition strategy. Such assets generally undergo some form of repositioning soon after our acquisition to help drive increased appreciation and operating performance. Once the repositioning is complete, we focus on increasing the asset's net operating income, thereby further increasing the value of the asset. By making these below-market acquisitions, adding value through development activities, and increasing free cash flow with proper management all represent a material component to our core business model.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

A unique feature of our funds is the discretion given to our management team to decide when to sell assets and when to hold them. We believe this discretion allows us to avoid selling properties that, while their business plan may have matured, the market will not pay an attractive price in the current environment. Avoiding selling at a time of disruption, such as all of 2020, is critical to preserving the value of our assets, our carried interest, our ongoing revenues, and our clients' capital. While this is management's expectation, there can be no assurance these outcomes will occur.

**Assets Under Management**

AUM refers to the assets we manage or sponsor. We monitor two types of information regarding our AUM:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.Managed Capital – we define this as the total capital we fundraise from our customers as investments in our funds. It also includes fundraising into our corporate note program, the proceeds of which were used, in part, to invest in or loan to our funds. We use this information to monitor, among other things, the amount of 'preferred return' that would be paid at the time of a distribution and the potential to earn a performance fee over and above the preferred return at the time of the distribution. Our fund management fees are based on a percentage of managed capital or a percentage of assets under management, and monitoring the change and composition of managed capital provides relevant data points for our management to further calculate and predict future earnings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.Fair Value ("FV") AUM – we define this is as the aggregate fair value of the real estate assets we manage and from which we derive management fees, performance revenues and other fees and expense reimbursements. We estimate the value of these assets quarterly to help make sale and hold decisions and to evaluate whether an existing asset would benefit from refinancing or recapitalization. This also gives us insight into the value of our carried interest at any point in time. We also utilize FV AUM to predict the percentage of our portfolio which may need development services in a given year, fund management services (such as refinance), and brokerage services. As we control the decision to hire for these services, our service income is generally predictable based upon our current portfolio AUM and our expectations for AUM growth in the year forecasted. As of December 31, 2025, we had total FV AUM of approximately $779.7 million.

Although we believe we are utilizing generally accepted methodologies for our calculation of Managed Capital and FV AUM, it may differ from our competitors, thereby making these metrics non-comparable to our competitors.

<sup>(1)</sup> We earn a fund management fee of 0.7% of the CHT enterprise value and are reimbursed for certain costs incurred on behalf of CHT.

<sup>(2)</sup> Beginning the year ended December 31, 2023, we include capital raised from investors in CaliberCos Inc. through corporate note issuances that were further invested in our funds in Managed Capital. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we invested $11.6 million and $20.4 million, respectively, in our funds.

<sup>(3)</sup> Credit managed capital represents loans made to our investment funds by us and our diversified credit fund. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had loaned $8.5 million and $0.4 million to our funds.

<sup>(4)</sup> Other managed capital represents undeployed capital held in our diversified funds.

Managed capital for our hospitality funds and CHT was effectively flat during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Managed capital for our residential investment funds increased by $7.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, representing: (i) $6.7 million in capital raised into our residential assets and (ii) $1.4 million contributed by our diversified funds offset by $0.8 million in redemptions.

Managed capital for our commercial investment funds increased by $9.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, representing: (i) $5.2 million in capital raised into our commercial assets offset by $0.2 million of capital returns, and (ii) $5.4 million contributed by our diversified funds offset by $0.7 million return of capital. The scope of investments included tenant improvements, land development, and acquiring existing operating commercial properties.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, our diversified funds deployed $10.2 million into our various real estate investments, which was offset by $0.4 million of repayments of outstanding notes receivable.

As of December 31, 2025, other managed capital decreased $1.8 million, due to a decrease in funds not yet deployed and pursuit costs.

**FV AUM**

Our fair value AUM decreased primarily due to asset sales, partially offset by asset purchases. The table below details the activities that had an impact on our FV AUM, during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands).

<sup>(1)</sup> Assets acquired during the year ended December 31, 2025 include one self-storage property in Colorado and one land parcel intended for hotel development in Texas. Assets acquired during the year ended December 31, 2024 include a 133-acre mixed-use land development property in Colorado and an office building conversion to multi-family residential.

<sup>(2)</sup> Assets sold during the year ended December 31, 2025 include three hospitality assets and various lot sales related to development assets. Assets sold during the year ended December 31, 2024 include a commercial asset, lot sales related to two development assets in Colorado, and one home from our residential fund.

<sup>(3)</sup> Credit FV AUM represents loans made to our investment funds by our diversified credit fund.

<sup>(4)</sup> Other FV AUM represents undeployed capital held in our diversified funds.

**Assets Under Development**

We have several development, redevelopment, construction, and entitlement projects that are underway or are in the planning stages, which we define as AUD. This category includes projects to be built on undeveloped land and projects to be built and constructed on undeveloped lands, which are not yet owned by our funds. Completing these development activities may ultimately result in income-producing assets, assets we may sell to third parties, or both. If we complete all AUD at December 31, 2025, up through sale, we estimate we could earn up to $104.2 million in performance allocations. As of December 31, 2025, we are actively developing 1,796 multifamily units, 697 single family units, 3.7 million square feet of commercial and industrial, and 3.5 million square feet of office and retail. If all of these projects are brought to completion, the total cost capitalized to these projects, which represents total current estimate costs to complete the development and construction of such projects by us or a third party, is $1.9 billion, which we expect would be funded through a combination of undeployed fund cash, third-party equity, project sales, tax credit financing and similar incentives, and secured debt financing. We are under no obligation to complete these projects and may dispose of any such assets at any time. There can be no assurance that AUD will ultimately be developed or constructed because of the nature of the cost of the approval and development process and market demand for a particular use. In

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

addition, the mix of residential and commercial assets under development may change prior to final development. The development of these assets will require significant additional financing or other sources of funding which may not be available.

**Non-GAAP Measures**

We use non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate operating performance, identify trends, formulate financial projections, make strategic decisions, and for other discretionary purposes. We believe that these measures enhance the understanding of ongoing operations and comparability of current results to prior periods and may be useful for investors to analyze our financial performance because they provide investors with a view of the performance attributable to us. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use these measures in addition to, and not as an alternative for, their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly identified measures of other companies because not all companies use the same calculations. These measures may also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our debt instruments, which amounts are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges and are used by us to determine compliance with financial covenants therein and our ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring additional debt and making certain restricted payments.

***Asset Management Platform or Platform***

Platform refers to the performance of our asset management platform segment, which generates revenues and expenses from managing our investment portfolio, which does not include any consolidated assets or funds. These activities include asset management, transaction services, and performance allocations. Management believes that this is an important view of us because it communicates performance of us that would be most useful for understanding the value of CWD.

***Fee-Related Earnings and Related Components***

Fee-Related Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP performance measure used to assess our ability to generate profits from fee-based revenues, focusing on whether our core revenue streams are sufficient to cover our core operating expenses. Fee-Related Earnings represents our net income (loss) before income taxes adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense and extraordinary or non-recurring revenue and expenses, including performance allocation revenue and change in fair value of digital assets, public registration direct costs related to aborted or delayed offerings and our Reg A+ offering, litigation settlements, and expenses recorded to earnings relating to investment deals which were abandoned or closed. Fee-Related Earnings are presented on a basis that deconsolidates our consolidated funds (intercompany eliminations) and eliminates noncontrolling interest. Eliminating the impact of consolidated funds and noncontrolling interest provides investors with a view of the performance attributable to CaliberCos Inc. and is consistent with performance models and analysis used by management.

***Distributable Earnings***

Distributable Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP performance measure equal to Fee-Related Earnings plus performance allocation revenue and less interest expenses and provision for income taxes. We believe that Distributable Earnings can be useful as a supplemental performance measure to our GAAP results assessing the amount of earnings available for distribution.

***Platform Earnings***

Platform Earnings represents the performance of our asset management platform segment, which generates revenues and expenses from managing our investment portfolio, excluding any consolidated assets or funds. We evaluate recurring earnings capacity through fee-related earnings, defined as fund management fees, financing fees, development and construction fees, organizational and offering fees, and brokerage fees, less direct operating expenses. We believe this measure provides investors with insight into the recurring operating profile of our asset management platform independent of performance allocation timing.

***Platform Earnings per Share***

Platform Earnings per Share is calculated as Platform Earnings divided by weighted average CWD common shares outstanding.

***Platform Adjusted EBITDA***

Platform Adjusted EBITDA represents our Distributable Earnings adjusted for interest expense, other income (expense), and provision for income taxes on a basis that deconsolidates our consolidated funds (intercompany eliminations) and eliminates

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

noncontrolling interest. Eliminating the impact of consolidated funds and noncontrolling interest provides investors with a view of the performance attributable to the Platform and is consistent with performance models and analysis used by management.

***Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA***

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents our and the consolidated funds' earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, transaction fees, expenses and other public registration direct costs related to aborted or delayed offerings and our Reg A+ offering, litigation settlements, expenses recorded to earnings relating to investment deals which were abandoned or closed, any other non-cash expenses or losses, as further adjusted for extraordinary or non-recurring items.

***Platform Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share ("EPS")***

Platform Basic and Diluted EPS represents earnings per share generated by the Platform, without reflecting the impact of consolidation. Eliminating the impact of consolidated funds and noncontrolling interest provides investors with a view of the performance attributable to the Platform and is consistent with performance models and analysis used by management.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

At December 31, 2025, we had a portfolio of corporate notes, whose composition and characteristics are similar to those reported in prior periods. At December 31, 2025, the portfolio consisted of 178 unsecured notes with an aggregate principal balance of $29.6 million. As of March 25, 2026, an aggregate of $24.5 million of the corporate and convertible notes have matured or will mature within the 12-month period subsequent to when these financial statements were issued. The notes generally have 12-month or 36-month terms, with the 12-month note holders having the option to extend for an additional 12-month term.

Because we incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flow from operations, and could experience additional future operating losses and negative cash flow in the near term, combined with the fact that we do not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy the total of the notes that mature within the next 12 months, these conditions and events raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In response to these conditions, management considered the impact of these near-term maturities on us.

Management evaluated the impact a default of one or many of these notes might have on us. As these notes are unsecured, the terms in the agreements do not afford the note holder avenues of recourse in a default that could or would impact us adversely in the normal course of business, as the terms lack provisions for rights or claims against our assets, nor is there a scenario where a default could force liquidation of us. Management believes that even in the event of default of one or many of these notes, we would be able to negotiate a waiver of the default either through an extension of the maturity or principal repayment schedule.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

To satisfy the maturity of these corporate notes, we intend to execute the following strategies:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.Raise $20 million of preferred stock series AA financing through its Reg A+ offering, which was qualified on March 12, 2025. From program inception through March 25, 2026, we have raised $6.4 million of Series AA preferred stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.Refinance existing 12-month term notes into its new 36-month term corporate note program. From the program inception through March 25, 2026, we have successfully refinanced $6.4 million of 12-month term corporate notes into its new 36-month term corporate note program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii.Convert corporate notes into shares of CWD common stock. In October 2025, we launched a note conversion program (the "Program") whereby holders (the "Note Holders") of outstanding promissory notes (the "Notes") may convert and cancel all or part of the Note Holders' Notes in exchange for shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Conversion Agreement") at a per share conversion price equaling the lower of (i) the average closing price of CWD's Class A common stock over the five trading days prior to the execution of the respective Conversion Agreement, or the (ii) closing bid price of CWD's Class A common stock the business day preceding the execution of the respective Conversion Agreement (the "Conversion Prices"). From program inception through March 25, 2026, we have successfully converted $1.9 million of corporate notes into 564,731 shares of common stock. The Conversion Prices ranged from $3.14 to $3.72 per share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iv.Raise equity capital in support of its Chainlink ("LINK") strategy through its approved ELOC and ATM facilities, with a portion of the proceeds allocated to general corporate purposes. From program inception through March 25, 2026, the Company generated $37.7 million million in net cash from equity issuances across all sources.

In addition to the financing actions noted, management continues to execute various plans implemented in the year to address operating losses and near-term maturities or demands for repayment of its notes. Consistent with reported actions taken in prior reporting periods, management plans to continue to i) reduce operating costs, ii) collect all or part of its $10.7 million in receivables, iii) collect all or part of its $11.6 million in investments from its managed funds, iv) increase capital raise through continued expansion of fundraising channels, v) sell or accept investment into its corporate headquarters, vi) place debt on unencumbered assets, and/or vii) generate planned cash from operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, as part of the execution of our aforementioned plans, we raised $33.8 million in new equity in support of our LINK strategy, investing $12.6 million in LINK and maintaining $2.5 million in unrestricted cash on hand. We collected $2.1 million in notes receivable, $12.5 million in accounts receivable, and $2.0 million in redemptions of investments from its managed funds. In addition, we have implemented broad-based cost reductions, most notably being further workforce reductions, which are expected to result in annualized cost savings of $3.9 million in compensation and employee benefit expenses.

After consideration of the implemented and planned actions, management concluded these plans are not within our control and therefore cannot be deemed probable. As a result, we have concluded that management's plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Each of our funds and the related assets that are acquired or own equity interest in those funds are established as separate legal entities with limited liability. Therefore, the cash flows generated by these entities, whether through operations or financing, are unavailable for general corporate purposes, except as payment to us for services performed by us.

***Corporate Debt***

As of December 31, 2025, we have issued and outstanding unsecured promissory notes of $29.6 million with an average outstanding principal balance of $0.2 million, a weighted average interest rate of 11.14%, and maturity dates ranging from January 2024 to March 2028. The purpose of this financing program is to provide us with flexible, short-term capital to be used to grow its assets under management and assist funds in a fast-moving acquisition or investment, as well as general corporate purposes. Additionally, the program provides customers of our funds access to a short-term lending opportunity. Management actively manages each relationship to determine if the respective customer would like to redeem upon maturity or extend for an additional period of time. This outstanding debt resulted in $3.6 million and $4.0 million of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

*Operating Activities* 

Our net cash flows from operating activities are generally comprised of asset management revenues and performance allocations, less cash used for operating expenses, including interest paid on our debt obligations. The increase in net cash flows used in operating activities of the Company during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, primarily relates to a decrease in asset management revenues, development and construction fees and fund management fees specifically, and an increase in related party receivables. The decrease in net cash flows provided by operating activities of the consolidated funds during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to same period in 2024, was primarily related to the deconsolidation of VIEs.

*Investing Activities*

Net cash flows used in investing activities of the Company increased during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to net cash flows provided by investing activities of the Company the same period in 2024. This increase primarily relates to the investment in digital assets during the year ended December 31, 2025, with no comparable investments during the same period in 2024, and a decrease in net proceeds from notes receivable - related parties. The decrease in net cash flows used in investing activities of the consolidated funds is primarily due to the deconsolidation of VIEs and a decrease in the net funding of notes receivable - related parties.

*Financing Activities*

Net cash flows provided by financing activities of the Company increased during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the net cash flows used in in the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock, common stock, and redeemable preferred stock. The decrease in net cash flows provided by

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

financing activities of the consolidated funds is primarily due to a decrease in contributions from noncontrolling interest holders of $16.4 million, offset by an increase of $5.7 million of net proceeds on notes payable and a decrease in distributions to noncontrolling interest holders of $5.2 million.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are made and evaluated on an ongoing basis using information that is currently available as well as various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates, perhaps in adverse ways, and those estimates could be different under different assumptions or conditions.

**Accounting Policies and Estimates of the Company**

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

***Revenue Recognition***

In accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"), management applies the five-step framework in determining the timing and amount of revenue to recognize. This framework requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with customers, (ii) identify the performance obligations within the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations within the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Revenues from contracts with customers includes fixed fee arrangements with related party affiliates to provide certain associated activities which are ancillary to and generally add value to the assets we manage, such as set-up and fund formation services associated with marketing, soliciting, and selling member interests in the affiliated limited partnerships, brokerage services, construction and development management services, loan placement and guarantees. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, there are no significant judgments made in evaluating when the customer obtains control of the promised service.

For performance obligations that are satisfied over time, significant judgment is required to determine how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on appropriate measurement of our progress under the contract; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events. Transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Variable consideration is included in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in transaction price are based largely on an assessment of its anticipated performance and all information that is reasonably available to us. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

The following describes revenue recognition for the fees we earn from providing services under our asset management 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 us to provide management services, representing a performance obligation that we satisfy over time. With respect to CHT, we earn a fund management fee of 0.7% of CHT's enterprise value and are reimbursed for certain costs incurred on behalf of CHT. These revenues are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

Financing fees are earned for services we perform 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, we earn fees for guaranteeing certain loans, representing a performance obligation that we satisfy 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 obligations 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 transaction, and are included in asset management revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Performance allocations are an arrangement in which we are entitled to an allocation of investment returns, generated within the investment funds which we manage, based on a contractual formula. We typically receive 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.

***Digital Assets***

We account for our digital assets in accordance with ASU 2023-08, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. ASU 2023-08 requires in-scope crypto assets (including our LINK holdings) to be measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, with gains and losses from changes in the fair value of such crypto being recognized in net income (loss) each reporting period. ASU 2023-08 also requires certain interim and annual disclosures for crypto assets within the scope of the standard. We adopted this guidance effective September 9, 2025, upon the completion of our initial purchase of LINK as part of the inauguration of our digital asset treasury strategy.

We initially record our LINK purchases at cost, with any subsequent changes in fair value recognized as incurred in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of our LINK is adjusted and disclosed within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period. We determine the fair value of our LINK holdings in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that we have determined is our principal market for LINK (Level 1 inputs). In the event of a sale, we will calculate the gain (loss) to be recognized as the difference between the sales price, net of transaction costs, and the carrying value of the LINK sold immediately prior to sale. We use the first-in, first-out cost basis method when calculating the gain (loss) on sale.

***Income Taxes***

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, *Accounting for Income Taxes*. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted tax rates and laws and are released in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

A valuation allowance is required to reduce the balance of a deferred tax asset if it is determined that it is more-likely-than-not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized due to the lack of sufficient taxable income or other limitation on our ability to utilize the loss carryforward.

We recognize the impact of an income tax position, if that position is more-likely-than-not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Related interest and penalties are classified as income taxes in the financial statements.

**Accounting Policies and Estimates of Consolidated Funds**

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the consolidated funds' more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

***Consolidated Fund Revenues***

In accordance with ASC 606, our consolidated funds apply the five-step framework in determining the timing and amount of revenue to recognize. This framework requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with customers, (ii) identify the performance obligations within the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations within the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The consolidated funds' revenues primarily consist of hospitality revenues, rental income and interest income.

<u>Consolidated funds – hospitality revenue</u>

Hospitality revenues are comprised of charges for room rentals, food and beverage sales, and other hotel operating activities. Revenues are recognized as earned, which is defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel's services. Revenues are recorded net of sales tax.

The consolidated funds have performance obligations to provide accommodations and other ancillary services to hotel guests. As compensation for such goods and services, the consolidated funds are typically entitled to a fixed nightly fee for an agreed upon period and additional fixed fees for any ancillary services purchased. These fees are generally payable at the time the hotel guest checks out of the hotel. The consolidated funds generally satisfy the performance obligations over time and recognize the revenue from room sales and from other ancillary guest services on a daily basis, as the rooms are occupied, and the services have been rendered.

For food and beverage, revenue is recognized upon transfer of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the consolidated funds received in exchange for those services, which is generally when payment is tendered at the time of sale.

The consolidated funds receive deposits for events and rooms. Such deposits are deferred and are included in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deposits are credited to consolidated funds – hospitality revenue when the specific event takes place.

<u>Consolidated funds – other revenue</u>

Consolidated funds - other revenue primarily consists of rental revenue of $0.6 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Rental revenue includes the revenues generated primarily by the rental operations of the residential and commercial properties of our consolidated funds.

In addition, consolidated funds – other revenue includes interest income, which is generated by a consolidated funds lending activity. There was no interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, there was $5.9 million of interest income. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the lending agreements over the term of the respective loan agreement.

***Consolidated Fund Expenses***

Consolidated fund expenses consist primarily of costs, expenses and fees that are incurred by, or arise out of the operation and activities of or otherwise related to, the consolidated funds, including, without limitation, operating costs, depreciation and amortization, interest expense on debt held by the consolidated funds, gain on extinguishment of debt, gain on derivative instruments, insurance expenses, professional fees and other costs associated with administering and supporting those funds.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id7a0a8ff96e74680b49ca273e8b89a22_13)</u>

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The fair value of financial instruments is disclosed in accordance with ASC 825, *Financial Instruments*. The fair value of the consolidated funds financial instruments is estimated using available market information and established valuation methodologies. The estimates of fair value are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the consolidated funds could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

**Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

***Market Risk***

The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or interest rates. Our market risk arises primarily from volatility in the digital asset market relating to LINK and interest rate risk relating to variable-rate borrowings.

***Digital Asset Risk***

Historically, digital asset markets have experienced significant price volatility, limited liquidity and trading volumes relative to sovereign currency markets, a developing regulatory environment, and risks related to market abuse, manipulation, and compliance or internal control failures at exchanges. These risks are heightened by the electronic and decentralized nature of digital assets. During periods of market instability, we may be unable to sell our LINK tokens at favorable prices, or at all.

In addition, LINK held with custodians or transacted through trading partners are not subject to the protections available for cash or securities held with institutions regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. We may also be unable to obtain term loans or complete other capital-raising transactions using our unencumbered LINK holdings as collateral, particularly during periods of market stress or following significant declines in the price of LINK. If we are unable to transact in LINK, raise capital using LINK as collateral, or otherwise generate liquidity from our LINK holdings - and especially if we are required to sell LINK at a substantial loss to meet working capital requirements - our business and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

***Interest Rate Risk***

In addition to our LINK digital asset treasury strategy, to meet our short and long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to manage our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time-to-time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, caps, collars, treasury locks, options and forwards to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We would not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

As of December 31, 2025, our debt included fixed-rate debt with a fair value and carrying value of $60.2 million and $65.6 million, respectively. Changes in market interest rates on our fixed rate debt impact the fair value of the debt, but they have no impact on interest incurred or cash flow. For instance, if interest rates rise 100 basis points, and the fixed rate debt balance remains constant, we expect the fair value of our debt to decrease, the same way the price of a bond declines as interest rates rise.

As of December 31, 2025, our debt included variable-rate debt with a fair value and carrying value of $14.8 million. The sensitivity analysis related to our variable-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their December 31, 2025 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in variable interest rates on our variable-rate debt would increase or decrease our interest expense by $0.1 million annually.

***Credit Risk***

Substantially all the Company's revenues are generated from the management, ownership and/or operations of real estate assets located in Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Texas, and Virginia. The Company mitigates the associated risk by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate assets across multiple asset types, including hospitality, commercial, single-family, multi-family, and self-storage properties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate assets across multiple geographic locations including different markets and sub-markets in which our real estate assets are located.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate assets across assets at differing points of stabilization, and in varying states of cash flow optimization; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• maintaining financing relationships with a diversified mix of lenders (differing size and type), including large national banks, local community banks, private equity lenders, and insurance companies.

**Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data**

The information required by Item 8 is hereby incorporated by reference to our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this document.

**Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures** 

None.

**Item 9A. Controls and Procedures**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("the Exchange Act")) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that no controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025 and determined that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of that date.

**Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

This report does not include a report on management's assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by the SEC for newly public companies.

Because we are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act, our independent public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for so long as we are an emerging growth company.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**Item 9B. Other Information**

**(a) Trading Plans**

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, no director or officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) of the Company adopted or terminated a Rule "10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement", as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

***Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm PCAOB ID 1013***

Shareholders and Board of Directors

CaliberCos, Inc and Subsidiaries

Scottsdale, Arizona

**Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements** 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CaliberCos, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025, and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024**,** in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern** 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred significant operating losses, and negative cash flows from operations. The Company is dependent on its ability to increase revenues and obtain financing to continue operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

**Basis for Opinion** 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, any audits of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter** 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audits of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

**Valuation of Crypto Assets Held on the Balance Sheet** 

Critical Audit Matter Description

As described in Notes 1, 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of a digital asset treasury strategy and a digital asset treasury policy. Under this strategy and policy, the Company may allocate a portion of its treasury funds to acquire cryptocurrencies. The Company accounts and presents its digital assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60), with initial measurement at cost plus transaction fees directly attributable to each acquisition, and the Company continues to track cost basis using the specific-identification method. At each reporting date, the Company remeasures its digital assets at fair value, determined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined is its principal market for its digital assets (Level 1 inputs), with changes recognized in unrealized gains (losses) on digital assets, net, in the consolidated statements of operations.

The principal considerations for our determination of the valuation of crypto assets that are held on the balance sheet is a critical audit matter includes the complexity of the digital ecosystem, digital assets exhibit extreme price volatility, fragmented pricing across exchanges, and an absence of centralized valuation sources. Auditors must determine whether management's valuation approach is reasonable, which often involves challenging and subjective judgment.

How the Critical Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

The primary audit procedures to address this critical audit matter included:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtained an understanding over the Company's process and controls for evaluating the estimate in the fair valuation of crypto assets and related fair market valuation gains or losses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Utilizing an independent third-party pricing service to reprice the crypto assets held at December 31, 2025 and selected transactions for the year then ended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Confirmed the crypto assets held at December 31, 2025 with the Company's third-party custodian noting the custodian is a reputable digital asset platform.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtained an inspected third-party custodian SOC 1, Type 2 certification.

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**Note 1 – Organization and Liquidity**

***Organization***

CaliberCos Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company", "we", "our") is an alternative asset manager of private syndication and direct investment real estate funds complemented with being a provider of a full suite of traditional real estate services, and a holder of Digital Asset Treasury ("DAT") strategy in Chainlink ("LINK"). The Company was formed in November 2014, and originally began as Caliber Companies, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, which commenced operations in January 2009. The Company provides various support services, under its asset management platform segment ("Platform") to the investments it manages, including asset management services, fund set-up services, lending support, construction and development management, and real estate brokerage. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had operations in Arizona with a focus on hospitality, multifamily, and multi-tenant industrial real estate.

In general, the Company's Platform is comprised of investments in digital assets through its corporate treasury and in a family of private equity real estate ("PERE") funds which are organized as operating partnerships, in which multiple unrelated passive investors own partnership interests. In addition, the Company is designated as the manager and/or general partner of the partnership. Depending on the legal structure and arrangements between the Company and the funds, the Company may or may not consolidate the partnerships for financial reporting purposes. For funds in which the Company is determined to be the controlling party or primary beneficiary for financial reporting purposes, the fund is consolidated, and the passive investors' ownership is presented as noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements ("Consolidated Funds", and collectively with the Company, the "Consolidated Company", "Caliber", "we", "our", and "us"). For funds in which the Company is not determined to be the controlling party for financial reporting purposes, the fund is not consolidated, and any fees earned from the fund are included in fund management revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for more detail.

***Reverse Stock Split: 1-for-20***

On May 2, 2025, the Company effected a one-for-twenty (1-for-20) reverse stock split of its common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The Reverse Stock Split did not change the authorized number of shares or the par value of the Common Stock nor modify any voting rights of the Common Stock.

All share and per share amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented.

***Securities Purchase Agreement***

On March 20, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Mast Hill Fund, L.P. (the "Investor") as the purchaser, pursuant to which the Company issued the Investor a senior secured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1.7 million (as the principal amount thereof may be increased pursuant to the terms thereof), a common stock purchase warrant for the purchase of 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, with an initial exercise price of $15.00 per share, and 10,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Commitment Shares").

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the "RRA") with the Investor to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute, and applicable state securities laws. The Company agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") an initial Registration Statement covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities (as defined in the RRA) within ten (10) business days from the date that the Company filed its Form 10-K with the SEC for the period ended December 31, 2024.

***Equity Line of Credit***

Concurrent with the execution of the Purchase Agreement with the Investor above, the Company entered into an equity purchase agreement (the "Equity Purchase Agreement") with the Investor pursuant to which the Company may sell and issue to the Investor, and the Investor may purchase from the Company, up to $25.0 million of Common Stock (the "Put Shares"). Under the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor, by its delivery to the Investor of a put notice from time to time, to purchase Put Shares (i) in a minimum amount not less than $5,000 and (ii) in a maximum amount up to the lesser of (a) $500,000 or (b) 40% of the Average Daily Trading Value (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement). In connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Company issued the Investor a five-year common

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

stock purchase warrant for the purchase of 10,000 shares of the Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $30 per share (the "ELOC Warrant").

The Company shall not affect any sales of the Put Shares under the Equity Purchase Agreement and the Investor shall not have the obligation to purchase Put Shares under the Equity Purchase Agreement to the extent that such issuance would exceed the Exchange Cap (as defined below). Shareholder approval is required to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Equity Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to the issuance of Common Stock and the ELOC Warrant in excess of 78,441 shares of Common Stock (the "Exchange Cap").

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued put notices requiring the Investor to purchase a total of 3,006,134 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $6.4 million. No put notices pursuant to the Equity Purchase agreement were issued prior to July 16, 2025.

***ATM Equity Distribution Agreement***

On August 22, 2025, the Company entered into an at-the-market ("ATM") equity distribution agreement providing for the sale of up to $10.3 million of our Class A common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we have issued 1,671,568 shares under the ATM program for net proceeds of $8.4 million.

***Liquidity and Going Concern***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

At December 31, 2025, the Company had a portfolio of corporate notes, whose composition and characteristics are similar to those reported in prior periods. At December 31, 2025, the portfolio consisted of 178 unsecured notes with an aggregate principal balance of $29.6 million. As of March 25, 2026, an aggregate of $24.5 million of the corporate and convertible notes have matured or will mature within the 12-month period subsequent to when these financial statements were issued. The notes generally have either a 12-month or 36-month term, with the 12-month note holders having the option to extend for an additional 12-month term.

Because the Company incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flow from operations, and could experience additional future operating losses and negative cash flow in the near term, combined with the fact that the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy the total of the notes that mature within the next 12 months, these conditions and events raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In response to these conditions, management considered the impact of these near-term maturities on the Company.

Management evaluated the impact a default of one or many of these notes might have on the Company. As these notes are unsecured, the terms in the agreements do not afford the note holder avenues of recourse in a default that could or would impact the Company adversely in the normal course of business, as the terms lack provisions for rights or claims against the Company's assets, nor is there a scenario where a default could force liquidation of the Company. Management believes that even in the event of default of one or many of these notes, the Company would be able to negotiate a waiver of the default either through an extension of the maturity or principal repayment schedule.

To satisfy the maturity of these corporate notes, the Company intends to continue to implement the following strategies:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.Raise $20 million of preferred stock series AA financing through its Reg A+ offering, which was qualified on March 12, 2025. From program inception through March 25, 2026, the Company has raised $6.4 million of Series AA preferred stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.Refinance its existing 12-month term notes into a new 36-month term corporate note program. From program inception through March 25, 2026, the Company has successfully refinanced $6.4 million of 12-month term corporate notes into its 36-month term corporate note program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii.Convert corporate notes into shares of Caliber common stock. In October 2025, the Company launched its note conversion program (the "Program") whereby holders (the "Note Holders") of outstanding promissory notes (the "Notes") will convert and cancel all or part of the Note Holders' Notes in exchange for shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Conversion Agreement") at a per share conversion price equaling the lower of (i) the average

closing price of the Company's Class A common stock over the five trading days prior to the execution of the respective Conversion Agreement, or the (ii) closing bid price of the Company's Class A common stock the business day preceding the execution of the respective Conversion Agreement (the "Conversion Prices"). From program inception through March 25, 2026, we have successfully converted $1.9 million of corporate notes into 564,731 shares of Class A common stock. The Conversion Prices ranged from $3.14 to $3.72 per share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iv.Raise equity capital in support of its Chainlink ("LINK") strategy through its approved ELOC and ATM facilities, with a portion of the proceeds allocated to general corporate purposes. From program inception through March 25, 2026, the Company generated $37.7 million million in net cash from equity issuances across all sources.

In addition to the financing actions noted, management continues to execute various plans implemented in the year to address operating losses and near-term maturities or demands for repayment of its notes. Consistent with reported actions taken in prior reporting periods, management plans to continue to i) reduce operating costs, ii) collect all or part of its $10.7 million in accounts receivables, iii) collect all or part of its $11.6 million in investments from its managed funds, iv) increase capital raise through continued expansion of fundraising channels, v) sell or accept investment into its corporate headquarters, vi) place debt on unencumbered assets, and/or vii) generate planned cash from operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, as part of the execution of our aforementioned plans, we raised $33.8 million net in new equity in support of the Company's LINK strategy, investing $12.6 million in LINK and maintaining $2.5 million in unrestricted cash on hand. The Company collected $2.1 million in notes receivable, $12.5 million in accounts receivable, and $2.0 million in redemptions of investments from its managed funds. In addition, the Company has implemented broad-based cost reductions, most notably being further workforce reductions, which are expected to result in annualized cost savings of $3.9 million in compensation and employee benefit expenses.

After consideration of the implemented and planned actions, management concluded these plans are not within the Company's control and therefore cannot be deemed probable. As a result, the Company has concluded that management's plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

**Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

**Accounting Policies of the Company**

***Basis of Presentation and Consolidation***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Company's accounts, its consolidated subsidiaries, and legal entities in which the Company is deemed to have a direct or indirect controlling financial interest based on either a variable interest model or voting interest model. The equity and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries is shown separately in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of changes in stockholders' equity. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

<u>Variable Interest Entities</u>

The Company determines if an entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") based on several factors, including whether the equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The Company analyzes any investments in VIEs to determine if the Company is the primary beneficiary. A reporting entity is determined to be the primary beneficiary if it holds a controlling financial interest in a VIE.

Determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is primarily a qualitative analysis focused on identifying which reporting entity has both (i) the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from such entity that could potentially be significant to such entity. Performance of that analysis requires the exercise of judgment. The Company consolidates any VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary and the Company discloses its maximum exposure to loss related to the consolidated VIEs. See Note 3 – VIEs for more detail.

<u>Voting Interest Entities</u>

Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are generally assessed for consolidation as voting interest entities ("VOEs"). For VOEs, the Company consolidates an entity if it has a controlling financial interest. The Company has a controlling financial interest in a

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

VOE if (i) for legal entities other than partnerships, the Company owns a majority voting interest in the entity or, for limited partnerships and similar entities, the Company owns a majority of the entity's kick-out rights through voting limited partnership interests and (ii) non-controlling shareholders or partners do not hold substantive participating rights, and no other conditions exist that would indicate that the Company does not control the entity.

***Use of Accounting Estimates***

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are made and evaluated on an ongoing basis using information that is currently available as well as various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

***Cash***

Cash includes cash in bank accounts. The Company deposits cash with several high-quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company ("FDIC") up to an insurance limit of $250,000. At times, the Company's cash balances may exceed FDIC limits. Although the Company bears risk on amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it has not experienced and does not anticipate any losses due to the high quality of the institutions where the deposits are held.

***Restricted Cash***

Restricted cash consists of cash held in escrow accounts by contractual agreement with lenders as part of financial loan covenant requirements.

***Digital Assets***

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets ("ASU 2023-08"). ASU 2023-08 requires in-scope crypto assets (including the Company's LINK holdings) to be measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, with gains and losses from changes in the fair value of such crypto assets recognized in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023-08 also requires certain interim and annual disclosures for crypto assets within the scope of the standard. The Company adopted this guidance effective September 9, 2025, upon the completion of its initial purchase of LINK as part of the inauguration of its digital asset treasury strategy.

The Company initially records its LINK purchases at cost, with any subsequent changes in fair value recognized as incurred in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Company's LINK is adjusted and disclosed within the Company's consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period. The Company determines the fair value of its LINK holdings in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined is its principal market for LINK (Level 1 inputs). A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for subsequent changes in fair value of the Company's digital assets, representing the temporary difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of the assets.

Consistent with the Company's digital asset treasury strategy, its intent is to make consistent purchases of LINK over time, establishing a material position in LINK holdings within its treasury. In the event of a sale, the Company will calculate the gain or loss to be recognized as the difference between the sales price, net of transaction costs, and carrying value of the LINK sold immediately prior to sale. The Company uses the first-in, first-out cost basis method when calculating the gain or loss on sale.

***Investments in Unconsolidated Entities***

If an entity is not a VIE, the Company's determination of the appropriate accounting method with respect to our investments in limited liability companies and other investments is based on voting control. For the Company's managing member interests in limited liability companies, the Company is presumed to control (and therefore consolidate) the entity, unless the other limited partners have substantive rights that overcome this presumption of control. These substantive rights allow the limited partners to remove the general partner with or without cause or to participate in significant decisions made in the ordinary course of the entity's business. The Company accounts for our non-controlling investments in these entities under the equity method. The Company's investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries in which we can exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not control, or entities which are VIEs in which we are not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under the

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

equity method. The equity method of accounting requires the investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company's share of equity in the equity method investment's earnings and distributions. The Company's share of the earnings or loss from equity method investments is included in other income (expenses), net on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company evaluates its investments in unconsolidated entities for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the fair value of the entities might be less than the carrying value.

The Company's determination of the appropriate accounting treatment for an investment in a subsidiary requires judgment of several factors including the size and nature of our ownership interest and the other owners' substantive rights to make decisions for the entity. Different judgments or conclusions as to the level of the Company's control or influence, could result in a different accounting treatment, such as consolidation. While consolidating an investment generally would have no impact on the Company's net income or stockholders' deficit, consolidation does impact the individual income statement and balance sheet line items on the Company's consolidated financial statements, by effectively "grossing up" the Company's consolidated statements of operations and balance sheets.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying amount of the Company's investments in unconsolidated entities was $11.6 million, and $15.6 million, respectively, net of $6.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of impairments primarily related to the winding down of Caliber Fixed Income Fund III ("CFIF III") in 2024.

In certain situations, the Company has invested only a nominal amount of cash, or no cash at all, into a venture. As the manager of the venture, the Company is entitled to 15.0% – 35.0% of the residual cash flow produced by the venture after the payment of any priority returns. Under the equity method, impairment losses are recognized upon evidence of other-than-temporary losses of value. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company had impairment losses of $3.5 million related to its investments in unconsolidated entities. There were no impairment losses during the year ended December 31, 2024.

***Depreciation and Amortization Expense***

Depreciation expense includes costs and costs associated with building and building improvements, which are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the respective asset, generally 15 to 40 years. Depreciation expense also includes costs associated with the purchase of furniture and equipment and office leasehold improvements, which are recorded at cost. Furniture and equipment costs are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, generally three to seven years beginning in the first full month the asset is placed in service. Intangible lease assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the respective estimated useful life or the lease term.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, depreciation expense for the Company was $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

***Impairment of Long-Lived Assets***

Real estate and other long-lived assets to be held and used are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless the carrying amount of the asset is determined not to be recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to the Company's estimate of the undiscounted net future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset, excluding interest charges. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the Company recognizes an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no impairment losses related to its real estate and other long-lived assets.

***Concentration of Credit Risk***

Substantially all the Company's revenues are generated from the activities completed through its Platform, including the management, ownership and/or operations of real estate assets located in Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Texas, and Virginia. The Company mitigates the associated risk by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate across hospitality, multi-family, and multi-tenant industrial asset types;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate assets across multiple geographic locations including different markets and sub-markets in which our real estate assets are located;

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversifying our investments in real estate assets across assets at differing points of stabilization, and in varying states of cash flow optimization; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• maintaining financing relationships with a diversified mix of lenders (differing size and type), including large national banks, local community banks, private equity lenders, and insurance companies.

***Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Real Estate Partnerships***

The Company reports the unaffiliated partners' interests in the net assets of the Company's consolidated real estate partnerships as noncontrolling interests within the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity. Noncontrolling interests consist of equity interests held by limited partners in consolidated real estate partnerships. The Company attributes to noncontrolling interests their share of income or loss of the consolidated partnerships based on the Company's proportionate interest in the results of operations of the partnerships, including the Company's share of losses even if such attribution results in a deficit noncontrolling interest balance within our equity and partners' capital accounts.

The terms of the partnership agreements generally require the partnerships to be liquidated following the sale of the underlying real estate assets. As the general partner in these partnerships, the Company ordinarily controls the execution of real estate sales and other events that could lead to the liquidation, redemption or other settlement of noncontrolling interests. The terms of certain partnership agreements outline differing classes of equity ownership, some of which are redeemable by the partnership at the partnership manager's discretion.

***Revenue Recognition***

In accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"), management applies the five-step framework in determining the timing and amount of revenue to recognize. This framework requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with customers, (ii) identify the performance obligations within the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations within the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Revenues from contracts with customers includes fixed fee arrangements with related party affiliates to provide certain associated activities which are ancillary to and generally add value to the assets the Company manages, such as set-up and fund formation services associated with marketing, soliciting, and selling member interests in the affiliated limited partnerships, brokerage services, construction and development management services, loan placement and guarantees. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, there are no significant judgments made in evaluating when the customer obtains control of the promised service.

For performance obligations satisfied over time, significant judgment is required to determine how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on appropriate measurement of the Company's progress under the contract; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events. Transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Variable consideration is included in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company's estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the Company's anticipated performance and all information that is reasonably available to the Company. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

The following describes the Company's revenue recognition policy related to 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 the Caliber Hospitality Trust, the Company earns a fund management fee of 0.7% of the Caliber

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

Hospitality Trust's enterprise value and is reimbursed for certain costs incurred on behalf of the 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 transaction, 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 receive 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.

***Leases***

<u>Lessor</u>

At the inception of a new lease arrangement, including new leases that arise from amendments, the Company assesses the terms and conditions to determine the proper lease classification. When the terms of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease is classified as a sales-type lease. When a lease does not effectively transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee, but the Company obtains a guarantee for the value of the asset from a third-party, the Company classifies the lease as a direct financing lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The Company did not have any sales-type or direct financing leases as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. For operating leases with minimum scheduled rent increases, the Company recognizes rental revenue on a straight-line basis, including the effect of any free rent periods, over the lease term when collectability of lease payments is probable. Variable lease payments are recognized as rental revenue in the period when the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur.

The Company identified two separate lease components as follows: i) land lease component, and ii) single property lease component comprised of building, land improvements and tenant improvements. The Company's leases also contain provisions for tenants to reimburse the Company for maintenance and other property operating expenses, which are non-lease components.

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

The Company elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components, and the non-lease components will be included with the single property lease component as the predominant component.

<u>Lessee</u>

To account for leases for which the Company is the lessee, contracts must be analyzed upon inception to determine if the arrangement is, or contains, a lease. A lease conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Lease classification tests and measurement procedures are performed at the lease commencement date.

The lease liability is initially measured as the present value of the lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable; otherwise, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on the estimated rate of interest that the lessee would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The lease term is the noncancelable period of the lease and includes any renewal and termination options the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The lease liability balance is amortized using the effective interest method. The lease liability is remeasured when the contract is modified, upon the resolution of a contingency such that variable payments become fixed or if the assessment of exercising an extension, termination or purchase option changes.

The right-of-use ("ROU") asset balance is initially measured as the lease liability amount, adjusted for any lease payments made prior to the commencement date, initial direct costs, estimated costs to dismantle, remove, or restore the underlying asset and incentives received.

The Company's impairment assessment for ROU assets is consistent with the impairment analysis for the Company's other long-lived assets and is reviewed quarterly.

***Accounts Receivable***

Accounts receivable primarily consist of reimbursable expenses from third-party development projects. The Company continually reviews receivables and determines collectability by taking into consideration the history of past write-offs, collections, current credit conditions, payment history, and the financial condition of the related third-party service providers. If the collectability of a receivable is uncertain, the Company will record an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Amounts that are determined to be uncollectible with a high degree of certainty are written off through bad debt expense, which is included in operating costs on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

***Earnings Per Share***

Basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. The computation of diluted income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders further assumes the potential dilutive effect of potential common shares, which includes common shares, consisting of (a) stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method, and (b) convertible debt and preferred stock using the if-converted method. To the extent the inclusion of potential common shares is anti-dilutive, the potential common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders. See Note 13 – Net Income (Loss) Per Share for the calculation of earnings per share.

***Related Parties***

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into transactions with related parties. Related parties include affiliates of the entity, entities under common control of the Company, significant stockholders and executive management, and other parties that can significantly influence the management and operating policies of the Company.

***Income Taxes***

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, *Accounting for Income Taxes*. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted tax rates and laws and are released in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

A valuation allowance is required to reduce the balance of a deferred tax asset if it is determined that it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized due to the lack of sufficient taxable income or other limitation on the Company's ability to utilize the loss carryforward.

The Company recognizes the impact of an income tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Any related interest and penalties would be classified as income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10 – Income Taxes for more detail.

***Share-Based Compensation***

In July 2024, the Board of Directors approved the 2024 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2024 Plan") which was amended and restated in January 2026 to (i) increase the number of shares available for grant of awards by 1,000,000 shares and (ii) to incorporate provisions for annual increases under the 2024 Plan on the first day of each calendar year, beginning on January 1, 2027 and ending on January 1, 2034, equal to 15% of the total shares of our Class A common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which requires certain assumptions that can materially impact the estimation of fair value and related compensation expense. The assumptions used to estimate fair value include the price of our common stock, the expected volatility of our common stock, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected term of stock option awards. Management elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur pursuant to ASU 2016-09, *Compensation — Stock Compensation*. As a result, no forfeiture rate was assumed. The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant.

***Segments***

See Note 18 – Segments for detail of the Company's segment reporting policy.

**Accounting Policies of Consolidated Funds**

***Accounting for Real Estate Investments***

Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, a determination is made as to whether the acquisition meets the criteria to be accounted for as an asset acquisition or a business combination. The determination is primarily based on whether the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed meet the definition of a business. The determination of whether the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed meet the definition of a business includes a single or similar asset threshold. In applying the single or similar asset threshold, if substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are not considered a business. Most of our consolidated fund acquisitions meet the single or similar asset threshold, because substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired is attributable to the real estate assets acquired.

Acquired real estate properties accounted for as asset acquisitions are recorded at cost, including acquisition and closing costs. The consolidated funds allocate the cost of real estate properties to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated relative fair values. The consolidated funds determine the fair value of tangible assets, such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, using a combination of internal valuation techniques that consider comparable market transactions, replacement costs and other available information and fair value estimates provided by third-party valuation specialists, depending upon the circumstances of the acquisition. The consolidated funds determine the fair value of identified intangible assets or liabilities, which typically relate to in-place leases, using a combination of internal valuation techniques that consider the terms of the in-place leases, current market data for comparable leases, and fair value estimates provided by third-party valuation specialists, depending upon the circumstances of the acquisition.

If a transaction is determined to be a business combination, the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any identified intangibles are recorded at their estimated fair values on the transaction date, and transaction costs are expensed in the period incurred.

There were no asset acquisitions or dispositions by the Company or the consolidated funds during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***Intangible assets, net***

The consolidated funds intangible assets consist of lease rights to 100 acres of land located within the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community, comprising seven parcels. The lease rights were acquired in October 2022 for $48.7 million and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term at acquisition of 66 years. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the lease rights was $46.3 million, net of accumulated amortization, and is included in intangible assets, net, on the consolidated balance sheet.

***Cost Capitalization and Depreciation***

The consolidated funds capitalize costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with their development and construction activities. Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by site employees in connection with capital addition activities at the asset level. Interest, property taxes and insurance are also capitalized during periods in which redevelopment, development and construction projects are in progress. Capitalization of costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital addition activities, commence at the point in time when activities necessary to get the assets ready for their intended use are in progress. This includes when assets are undergoing physical construction, as well as when apartment homes are held vacant in advance of planned construction, provided that other activities such as permitting, planning and design are in progress. The consolidated funds cease the capitalization of costs when the assets are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, which is typically when construction has been completed and apartment homes or other properties are available for occupancy. Cost of ordinary repairs, maintenance and resident turnover are charged to operating expense, as incurred.

Depreciation for all tangible real estate assets is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of our building and building improvements are generally 15 to 40 years. The estimated useful lives of the consolidated funds furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally three to seven years beginning in the first full month the asset is placed in service.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, depreciation expense of the consolidated funds was $1.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively.

***Impairment of Long-Lived Assets***

Real estate and other long-lived assets to be held and used are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless the carrying amount of the asset is determined to not be recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the consolidated funds assess its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to our estimate of the undiscounted net future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset, excluding interest charges. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the consolidated funds recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the consolidated funds did not record an impairment loss related to real estate and other long-lived assets.

***Cash***

Cash includes cash in bank accounts. The consolidated funds deposit cash with several high-quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the FDIC up to an insurance limit of $250,000. At times, cash balances may exceed FDIC limits. Although the consolidated funds bear risk on amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, they have not experienced and do not anticipate any losses due to the high quality of the institutions where the deposits are held.

***Restricted Cash***

Restricted cash consists of tenant security deposits and cash reserves required by certain loan agreements for capital improvements and repairs. As improvements and repairs are completed, related costs incurred by the consolidated funds are funded from the reserve accounts. Restricted cash also includes cash held in escrow accounts by mortgage companies on behalf of the consolidated funds for payment of property taxes, insurance, and interest.

***Deferred Financing Costs***

Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in connection with obtaining long-term debt and are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt obligation using the straight-line method. Capitalized deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization, are offset against and included in notes payable, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

**Consolidated Fund Revenues**

In accordance with ASC 606, the consolidated funds apply the five-step framework in determining the timing and amount of revenue to recognize. This framework requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with customers, (ii) identify the performance obligations within the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations within the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The consolidated funds' revenues primarily consist of hospitality revenues, rental income and interest income.

<u>Consolidated funds – hospitality revenue</u>

Hospitality revenues are comprised of charges for room rentals, food and beverage sales, and other hotel operating activities. Revenues are recognized as earned, which is defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel's services. Revenues are recorded net of sales tax.

The consolidated funds have performance obligations to provide accommodations and other ancillary services to hotel guests. As compensation for such goods and services, the consolidated funds are typically entitled to a fixed nightly fee for an agreed upon period and additional fixed fees for any ancillary services purchased. These fees are generally payable at the time the hotel guest checks out of the hotel. The consolidated funds generally satisfy the performance obligations over time and recognize the revenue from room sales and from other ancillary guest services daily, as the rooms are occupied, and the services have been rendered.

For food and beverage, revenue is recognized upon transfer of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the consolidated funds received in exchange for those services, which is generally when payment is tendered at the time of sale.

The consolidated funds receive deposits for events and rooms. Such deposits are deferred and included in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deposits are credited to consolidated funds – hospitality revenue when the specific event takes place.

<u>Consolidated funds – other revenue</u>

Consolidated funds – other revenue includes rental revenue of $0.6 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Rental revenue includes the revenues generated primarily by the rental operations of the residential and commercial properties of the consolidated funds.

In accordance with ASC 842, *Leases* ("ASC 842"), at the inception of a new lease arrangement, including new leases that arise from amendments, the consolidated funds assess the terms and conditions to determine the proper lease classification. When the terms of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease is classified as a sales-type lease. When a lease does not effectively transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee, but the consolidated funds obtain a guarantee for the value of the asset from a third-party, the consolidated funds classify the lease as a direct financing lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The consolidated funds did not have any sales-type or direct financing leases as of December 31, 2025. For operating leases with minimum scheduled rent increases, the consolidated funds recognize rental revenue on a straight-line basis, including the effect of any free rent periods, over the lease term when collectability of lease payments is probable. Variable lease payments are recognized as rental revenue in the period when the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur.

The consolidated funds identified two separate lease components as follows: i) land lease component, and ii) single property lease component comprised of building, land improvements and tenant improvements. The consolidated funds leases also contain provisions for tenants to reimburse the consolidated funds for maintenance and other property operating expenses, which are non-lease components. The consolidated funds elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components, and the non-lease components will be included with the single property lease component as the predominant component.

In addition, consolidated funds - other revenue includes interest income, which is generated by a consolidated funds lending activity. There was no interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, there was

**CALIBERCOS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

$5.9 million of interest income. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the lending agreements over the term of the respective loan agreement.

***Consolidated Fund Expenses***

Consolidated fund expenses consist primarily of costs, expenses and fees that are incurred by, or arise out of the operation and activities of or otherwise related to, the consolidated funds, including, without limitation, operating costs, depreciation and amortization, interest expense on debt held by our consolidated funds, insurance expenses, professional fees and other costs associated with administering and supporting those funds.

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The fair value of financial instruments is disclosed in accordance with ASC 825, *Financial Instruments*. The fair value of the consolidated funds financial instruments is estimated using available market information and established valuation methodologies. The estimates of fair value are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the consolidated funds could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

***Fair Value Measurements***

Fair value measurements and disclosures consist of a three-level valuation hierarchy. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the ability to observe the inputs employed in the measurement using market participant assumptions at the measurement date. An asset's or liability's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs reflect assumptions about what market participants would use to price the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting company's own data).

***<u>Recent Accounting Pronouncements</u>***

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-06, *Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)*, effective January 1, 2024, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, *Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*, which serves to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on both an annual and interim basis. The guidance does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance effective December 31, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's balance sheets, statements of operations, or statements of cash flows, but resulted in additional disclosures in the notes to the financial statements, most notably payroll and payroll related costs as a significant segment expense. See Note 18 – Segments for detail.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740, Income Taxes)*. ASU 2023-09, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Adjustments to the annual disclosure of income taxes include: (1) A tabular rate reconciliation comprised of eight specific categories, (2) Incomes taxes

paid, disaggregated between significant national, state, and foreign jurisdictions, (3) Eliminates requirements to disclose the nature and estimate of reasonably possible changes to unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months or that an estimated range cannot be made, and (4) Adds a requirement to disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) by national and foreign, and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated between national, state and foreign. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 were adopted by the Company on a retrospective basis. There was no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements as a result of adopting ASU 2023-09.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)* to improve the disclosures about a public business entity's expenses and provide more detailed information about the types of expenses included in certain expense captions in the consolidated financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments in this update should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this update or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2025-05, *Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Clarifications to Expected Credit Losses Guidance*. The amendments in ASU 2025-05 are intended to reduce the operational burden associated with applying the current expected credit losses ("CECL") model to portfolios with large volumes of short-term receivables. The update confirms that entities may apply simple, well-designed loss-rate approaches when estimating expected credit losses and clarifies the interaction between the guidance in Topic 326 and contract assets recognized under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments are intended to improve consistency and comparability in the application of the CECL model in practice. The amendments in ASU 2025-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-05 and does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, *Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements*. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are intended to enhance the clarity and usability of the interim reporting guidance in Topic 270. Among other changes, the update defines when the guidance in Topic 270 applies, clarifies what constitutes interim financial statements and accompanying notes prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and organizes existing interim disclosure requirements from across the Codification into Topic 270. The amendments also introduce a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events occurring after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2025-11 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

**Note 3 – VIEs** 

Management has determined that the equity holders in the Company's consolidated entities, as a group, lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities' economic performance and/or have disproportionate voting rights relative to their equity. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary of each of these entities since it 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 entities.

Generally, the assets of the individual consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle liabilities of each respective individual consolidated VIE and the liabilities of each respective VIE, including VIEs which it consolidates, are liabilities for which creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company. When the VIE is consolidated, we reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of the consolidated funds on a gross basis, and the interests in the VIEs are included in non-controlling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company has provided financial support to certain consolidated VIEs in the form of short-term financing and guarantees of the debts of certain VIEs. In general, the Company's maximum exposure to loss due to involvement with the consolidated VIEs is limited to the amount of capital investment in the VIE, if any, or the potential obligation to perform on the guarantee of debts.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company deconsolidated DoubleTree by Hilton Tucson Convention Center ("TCC"), a VIE which refinanced a loan secured by a hotel property it owns. With the refinancing of this loan, the Company no longer guarantees the debt, and it is therefore not obligated to absorb the respective VIE's income or loss and is no longer

determined to be the primary beneficiary. The Company aggregates and reports on the results of operations of TCC in consolidated fund revenues and consolidated fund expenses within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations through the date of deconsolidation.

In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company consolidated Riverwalk 1 HoldCo, LLC, Riverwalk 2 HoldCo, LLC, Riverwalk 3 HoldCo, LLC, Riverwalk 4 HoldCo, LLC, Riverwalk 5 HoldCo, LLC, Riverwalk 6 HoldCo, LLC, and Riverwalk 7 HoldCo, LLC ("Riverwalk") because the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary as it had the power to direct the activities and the obligations to absorb their losses through its guarantee of the indebtedness secured by Riverwalk's assets. The consolidation of Riverwalk consisted of the following, excluding intercompany eliminations at the time of consolidation (in thousands):

During the year ended December 31, 2024, L.T.D. Hospitality Group LLC ("L.T.D.") contributed one hotel from its portfolio to Caliber Hospitality, LP in exchange for $4.9 million in cash, net of closing costs, and $9.6 million in operating partnership units. In conjunction with the L.T.D. contribution, Caliber Hospitality, LP entered a new $14.1 million loan facility with a third-party lender resulting in a consolidation reconsideration event. Upon this reconsideration event, the Company reconsidered its consolidation conclusion, given the change in economics, and concluded that the Company was no longer the primary beneficiary, as its potential obligation to absorb the losses, through its guarantee of the indebtedness secured by the hospitality assets, was no longer significant to Caliber Hospitality, LP or the Caliber Hospitality Trust. As such, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company deconsolidated Caliber Hospitality, LP, the Caliber Hospitality Trust, and their consolidated subsidiaries. The Company aggregated and reported the results of operations of these VIEs in consolidated fund revenues and consolidated fund expenses within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations through the date of deconsolidation. Additionally, during year ended December 31, 2024, the Company deconsolidated Elliot, DT Mesa, and CFIF III. The Company's investment in these assets, as well as the assets of Caliber Hospitality, LP, are no longer eliminated and are included in investments in unconsolidated entities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets dated December 31, 2025 and 2024.

See Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies for additional information related to the commitments and contingencies of these VIEs.

**Note 4 – Digital Assets**

The Company accounts for its digital assets, which are comprised solely of LINK, as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other and ASU 2023-08. The Company's digital assets are initially recorded at cost and then subsequently measured at fair value as of the end of each reporting period. The Company determines the fair value of its LINK holdings in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined is its principal market for LINK (Level 1 inputs). Changes in fair value are recognized as incurred in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, as "Change in fair value of digital assets", included below operating expenses.

At December 31, 2025, the Company held 562,535, LINK with a cost basis of $12.6 million and a fair value of $6.8 million. All LINK were acquired during the year ended December 31, 2025, and the Company has not sold any of its LINK holdings as of that date. The Company recognized an unrealized loss of $5.8 million or 45.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the fair value per LINK was $12.18 per token at December 31, 2025.

The following table summarizes the Company's unrealized losses on digital assets calculated consistently with ASU 2023-08 (in thousands).

A significant amount of the Company's assets are concentrated in its LINK holdings. LINK is a digital asset, which is a novel asset class subject to significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty. Our LINK holdings do not currently generate any cash flow and involves custodial fees and other costs. Additionally, the price of LINK has historically been highly volatile. A significant decrease in the price of LINK would adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

Saddleback Ranch, LLC

In February 2025, the Company entered into a $1.2 million financing agreement which is secured by a deed of trust for the land owned by Saddleback Ranch, LLC. The financing agreement has a fixed interest rate of 10.00% through February 2026, then a fixed rate of 14.00% until maturity in February 2027. The financing agreement requires an interest only payment in February 2026, with all accrued interest added to the outstanding balance monthly. Beginning in February 2026, interest only payments are due quarterly, with the final interest and principal amount due upon maturity. The terms of the financing agreement do not allow the repayment of the outstanding balance in part prior to maturity but does allow for the entire outstanding balance to be repaid at any time before the maturity date. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balance of the loan was $1.3 million.

***Corporate Notes and Convertible Corporate Notes***

The Company has entered into multiple general corporate financing arrangements with third parties. The arrangements are generally evidenced in the form of an unsecured promissory note and require monthly or quarterly interest-only payments until maturity. The loans generally have a 12-month or 36-month term and may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the lender and the borrower. Management believes it can come to a mutual agreement with each lender to extend the maturities of the notes for an additional 12-month term.

As of December 31, 2025, there were 178 individual corporate notes outstanding, with an average outstanding principal balance of $0.2 million, interest rates ranging from 8.25% to 12.00%, with weighted average interest rate of 11.14%, and maturity dates ranging from January 2024 to March 2028. At December 31, 2025, the corporate notes outstanding had an aggregate principal balance of $29.6 million, of which $24.5 million of the corporate notes have matured or will mature within the 12-month period subsequent to March 25, 2026.

As of December 31, 2024, there were 202 individual corporate notes outstanding, with an average outstanding principal balance of $0.2 million, interest rates ranging from 8.25% to 12.00%, with a weighted average interest rate of 11.30%, and maturity dates ranging from April 2023 to December 2027.

The Company has issued corporate notes, generally convertible at $151.40 per common share, except for a secured promissory note issued to Mast Hill (the "Mast Hill Note") in March 2025, which was convertible at $8.25 per common share, and was repaid in September 2025. Holders may convert all or part of their note principal balance at any time. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, convertible corporate notes totaled $0.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2025, $1.9 million of debt was converted into common stock.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $81.6 million and $80.7 million of federal and state net operating losses ("NOL"), respectively, available to offset future taxable income. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $72.3 million and $71.3 million of federal and state NOL, respectively, available to offset future taxable income. The federal NOLs arising in 2017 and prior, if not utilized, begin expiring in the year 2035. Federal NOLs arising in tax years ending after December 31, 2017 can be carried forward indefinitely but are subject to an 80% of taxable income limitation. The Arizona state NOLs arising in 2015, if not utilized, begin expiring in the year 2035. In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, deductibility of the Company's federal NOL carryovers may be limited in the event of a change in control of ownership.

In assessing the need for a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets, the Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of the deferred tax assets to determine, based on the weight of available evidence, whether it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered cumulative tax losses as a significant piece of negative evidence and established a full valuation allowance of $17.9 million and $11.7 million against the Company's net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The changes to the Company's valuation allowance during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows (in thousands):

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the following significant taxing jurisdictions: U.S., Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Missouri, New York, Oregon, South Carolina and Utah. The Company is currently not under income tax examination in any tax jurisdiction.

Although we believe our tax returns are correct, the final determination of tax examinations and any related litigation could be different from what was reported on the tax returns. We are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the United States Internal Revenue Service as well as state taxing authorities for the past four years (three years in some states). However, due to NOL carryforwards not being utilized, all periods are open to potential examinations. Any penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits would be classified as income tax expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

We apply U.S. GAAP related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before recognition in the financial statements and provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. We do not believe that there are any positions taken by the Company which would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

**Note 13 – Net Income (Loss) Per Share**

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive impact of all potential dilutive common shares, consisting of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt and preferred stock using the if-converted method.

The Company considered the two-class method in calculating the basic and diluted earnings per share, however, it was determined that there was no impact to the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders as Class A and Class B common stock share in the same earnings and profits, thus, having no impact on the calculation.

All share and per share amounts in the earnings per share calculation and dilutive share calculations below have been affected for the Reverse Stock Split, retroactively, for all periods presented.

**Note 14 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments of the Company**

Fair values of financial instruments held by the Company are estimated using available market information and established valuation methodologies. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Financial instruments that approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments consist of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The fair values of debt have been estimated based on current rates available for similar instruments with similar terms, maturities, and collateral. The carrying values of the Company's variable rate and short-term debt as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximated fair value. The fair value of the Company's fixed rate debt was measured with Level 2 inputs.

Class A common stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock and Class B common stock shall be entitled to 10 votes for each share of common stock through May 15, 2026, at which time both Class A and Class B common stock will be allowed one vote per share. No holder of shares of common stock shall have the right to cumulate votes. In the event of liquidation, subject to the prior rights of holders of preferred stock to share ratably in the Company's assets, the holders of common stock and holders of any shares of preferred stock which are not entitled to any preference in liquidation shall share equally and ratably in the Company's assets available for distribution after giving effect to any liquidation preference of shares of preferred stock. The holders of Class A common stock shall not have any conversion, redemption, or other preemptive rights. The holders of Class B common stock are entitled to a conversion upon notice or an automatic conversion upon transfer at which time the Class B Common stockholder will be entitled to one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A common stock. In addition, Class B common stock shall not have any redemption or other preemptive rights.

***Warrants***

Prior to the Reverse Stock Split, the Company had warrants outstanding to purchase a total of 2,201,123 shares of Class A common stock, at weighted average exercise price of $0.96 per share. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, and pursuant to the terms of the applicable warrant agreement, the number of warrants outstanding to purchase a share of Class A Common Stock was proportionately decreased at a 20:1 ratio consistent with the 20:1 increase in the price of a share of Class A Common Stock. There was no change in the value of the warrant because of this adjustment. The warrant disclosure below has been affected by the Reverse Stock Split.

The Company issues warrants for the purchase of its Class A Common Stock, either as stand-alone transactions or combined with other debt and/or equity instruments. The warrants may be exercised up to the fifth anniversary of their origination date and transferred independently at any time. Using the Black-Scholes model, the Company estimates the relative fair value of warrants on the date of issuance. The relative fair value of warrants is included in Paid-in capital on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had warrants outstanding to purchase 129,040 and 52,943 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively, with a weighted average exercise price per share of $16.49 and $16.41, respectively, and weighted average remaining exercise periods of 4.1 and 4.7 years, respectively.

**Stock-based Compensation**

***Incentive Stock Plans***

In July 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2024 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2024 Plan"), which is used for share-based compensation awards granted after to its adoption. Consistent with the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2017 Plan"), which the 2024 Plan superseded, the 2024 Plan allows the Company to: (i) grant stock awards, (ii) grant stock options, and

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

(iii) offer restricted stock purchases to directors, executives and selected employees, consultants, and advisors. No new share-based compensation awards are granted under the 2017 Plan.

In July 2024, the Board of Directors approved the 2024 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2024 Plan") which was amended and restated in January 2026 to (i) increase the number of shares available for grant of awards by 1,000,000 shares and (ii) to incorporate provisions for annual increases under the 2024 Plan on the first day of each calendar year, beginning on January 1, 2027 and ending on January 1, 2034, equal to 15% of the total shares of our Class A common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year.

***Stock Options***

The Company grants stock options to certain employees and directors. Stock options may vest upon grant, cliff vest on a specified future date, vest ratably over time, or include a combination of these vesting terms. Options granted to employees generally have a requisite service period of up to four years and vest ratably over that period. Such options become fully vested upon the recipient's continued service through the end of the requisite service period.

The Company estimates the grant-date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which requires the use of certain assumptions. These assumptions include the fair value of the Company's common stock, expected volatility, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected term of the stock option awards.

The following inputs and assumptions were used to calculate the weighted average fair values of options granted for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **December 31,** | **December 31,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** |
| Expected term (in years) | 6.13 | 6.13 |
| Volatility | 35% - 36% | 35% - 36% |
| Dividend Yield | 0.00% | 0.00% |
| Risk-free rate | 3.69% - 4.16% | 3.63% - 4.52% |
| Grant date fair value | $2.55 | $6.33 |

***Restricted Stock Units***

---

The restricted stock units are subject to forfeiture if the participant does not meet certain conditions, such as continued employment and/or the attainment of a specified performance target over the specified service period.

As of December 31, 2025, total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested RSUs was $2.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. As of December 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested RSUs was $4.9 million.

**Stock-Based Compensation Expense**

Stock-based compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized total stock-based compensation expense of $1.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively, which is included in operating costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

**Note 17 – Preferred Stock**

**Series A Convertible Preferred Stock**

In November 2024, the Company entered in to an offering agreement to issue up to $15.0 million, of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred") and warrants to purchase its Class A Common Stock, with a stated value of $400 per share and a 12% annual, non-cumulative dividend payable annually in cash or shares of common stock, at the Company's discretion.

The Series A Preferred is convertible anytime at the option of the stockholder, in four sequential tranches. Each tranche allows the stockholder to convert up to 25% of its initial investment, beginning at a conversion price of $0.51 per share of common stock, and increasing in 50% increments for each successive tranche. Each tranche of Series A Preferred is mandatorily convertible if the market price of common stock is 200% higher than any respective tranche's conversion price for 20 of 30 consecutive trading days.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had 5,875 and 5,000 shares, respectively, of its Series A Preferred stock issued and outstanding, representing additional paid-in capital of $2.4 million and $2.0 million.

**Series AA Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (Reg A+) - Liability Classified**

The Company qualified its preferred stock series AA financing, registered under regulation A+, with the SEC in March 2025. The Company is authorized to issue up to 800,000 shares of the Series AA Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series AA Preferred") for gross proceeds of $20.0 million. The Series AA Preferred shares have a stated value of $25 per share and a cumulative monthly cash dividend equal to 9.5% per annum. If the Company does not make an interest payment within 30 days

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

after an unpaid month, it goes into default. In the event of default, the cash dividend rate increases to 18.0% per annum until cured.

Holders of the Series AA Preferred may elect to convert all or any portion of their preferred stock to equivalent shares of Class A Common stock, after the third anniversary of the issuance date. The Company can redeem the Series AA Preferred at any time at no cost. The stockholder can redeem at any time as well; however, if redeemed in year one, two, or three, the redemptions would be subject to a 10%, 8%, or 6% redemption fee, respectively. Redemption of the Series AA Preferred at stated value is mandatory on the third anniversary of the issuance date.

The Series AA Preferred is classified as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, rather than in shareholders' equity, due to its contractual obligation to redeem the shares for cash.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had 221,434 shares of its Series AA Preferred issued and outstanding, representing funds raised to date of $5.1 million, net of issuance costs.

**Series B Preferred Stock**

In September 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Delaware designating Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of Class A Common Stock at a conversion price of $250 per share, subject to adjustment as defined in the Certificate of Designation.

The Series B Preferred Stock does not have voting rights, except as required by law. In the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, holders are entitled to receive distributions in preference to holders of common stock, but junior to Series A and Series AA Preferred Stock. The Series B ranks pari passu with any preferred stock of substantially similar rights and preferences.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had 15,868 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, for total gross proceeds of $15.9 million.

**Note 18 – 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 costs 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. Operating costs consist primarily of payroll-related costs that are provided quarterly to the CODM. 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.

**Note 19 – Subsequent Events**

Management has evaluated events and transactions that occurred after December 31, 2025 through March 25, 2026, the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. The following events are in addition to those matters discussed in Note 6 – Notes Payable.

In January 2026, the Company's board of directors and stockholders approved an amendment to the CaliberCos Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. The amendment increased the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan to 1,200,000 shares. In addition, the amendment provides for automatic annual increases to the share reserve beginning January 1, 2027 (or the first business day of the calendar year, if applicable), equal to 15% of the Company's outstanding common stock as of December 31 of the preceding year. All other terms and provisions of the Plan remain unchanged.

In March 2026, an institutional investor exercised its right to convert its holdings of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock into shares of the Company's Class A common stock. On March 12, 2026, the holder exercised its conversion rights and converted all 15,868 shares of Series B Preferred Stock into 63,472 shares of the Company's common stock, based on a conversion price of $250 per share.
