SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this offering circular and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read this entire offering circular carefully, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our historical financial statements and related notes.

Please note that Caliber is not a traditional fund or asset manager but is instead a private equity sponsor that does not render investment advice to any investors in our Caliber sponsored projects. In this offering circular, we (i) refer to our Caliber sponsored projects in this prospectus as “funds”, (ii) refer to deferred compensation that we receive from our Caliber sponsored projects as “carried interests” and (iii) refer to total project assets as “Assets Under Management” or “AUM” despite our not possessing discretionary authority over such amounts nor do we render investment advice or hold ourselves out as investment advisors.

Unless the context otherwise requires, we use the terms “Caliber”, “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” in this offering circular to refer to CaliberCos Inc., a Delaware corporation.

General

We are a leading, vertically integrated regional private equity real estate sponsor providing a full suite of traditional real estate services. We own, operate, and invest in real estate both on our own and through our individual operating companies. We manage all aspects of the real estate investment deal continuum including fundraising, asset acquisition, construction and development, property management, asset management, brokerage services, and asset disposition.

Since inception we have raised approximately $229 million of capital from accredited investors and purchased real estate valued at approximately $360 million. Our aggregate net capital raised has increased at an average annual growth rate of 50% (from $15 million to $107 million) over the five-year period ending December 31, 2017. Caliber’s acquisition strategy and ability to successfully raise investment capital resulted in revenue of $67.4 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, a year over year increase from 2016 of 70% and 103%, respectively. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Consolidated Results of Operations” for a discussion of the components of adjusted EBITDA. As of December 31, 2017, none of our sponsored programs have suffered any loss of principal or projected interest; however, there can be no assurance that such performance will continue in the future.

As of December 31, 2017, our assets under management, or AUM, consisted of $214 million of real property, our capital under management was $107 million and the value of our real property portfolio was approximately $279 million. The following table summarizes the growth that we have experienced over the past two years, using a roll forward of market value of assets under management.

	Twelve Months Ended December 31,
	2017			2016
Consolidated Results
Total AUM Rollforward – @ Fair Value
Balance, Beginning		$	204,112,874		$	111,890,745

Balance, End		$	278,572,186		$	204,112,874

Over this period, we have experienced growth in our asset portfolio of approximately 145%, and we expect to see continued performance under the Caliber model. Our model puts our investors’ profit first. Unlike many other traditional asset managers, our annual fees are not influenced by the size of AUM (however, similar to traditional asset managers, we do earn a 35% carried interest on assets sold).

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Company’s operations are organized into eight reportable segments for management and financial reporting purposes, which are broadly separated in two categories; real estate services (Fund Management, Construction & Development, Property Management, Real Estate Brokerage) and real estate operations (Hospitality, Residential, Commercial, and Diversified). Each segment works closely together and plays a critical role in supporting our investment strategy by providing local market intelligence and real-time data for evaluating investments, generating proprietary transaction flow and creating value through efficient implementation of asset management strategies. We primarily earn revenue from our eight segments as follows:

•

Fund Management Fees. Fund management and similar fees earned for managing a Caliber sponsored fund. This is an annual fee that is generally structured as a percentage of the capital raised into the fund.

•

Capital Raise Fees. A one-time fee earned from raising member interests into a Caliber sponsored fund.

•

Construction and Development Fees. Fees and other charges earned as the general contractor on construction and remodeling services provided to our funds and other third parties.

•

Property Management Fees. Revenues and fees for property management services provided by the Company for third-party-owned properties, are generally based upon percentages of the rental revenue or base gross rent generated by such properties. Property management revenue also includes fees charged to third-party property management customers for leasing commissions, which are generally a flat fee or based on the amount of the new lease executed, with a minimum flat fee.

•

Brokerage Commissions. We earn real estate brokerage commissions by acting as a broker for residential and commercial real estate owners and investors seeking to buy or sell properties, including investment properties, as well as primary residences. The brokerage additionally earns fees by acting as the broker of record in the acquisition and disposition of Company or fund assets.

•

Real Estate Sales. Sales of any of the asset types from the Company’s portfolios or funds.

•

Hospitality Revenue. Revenues generated primarily by the rental operations of the hotel properties we own or manage. This primarily consists of revenue earned from room rentals, food and beverage sales, banquet and group sales and other hotel operating activities.

•

Rental Income. Revenues generated primarily by the rental operations of the residential (multi-family and single-family), and commercial properties we own or manage.

•

Investment income. Revenues generated from distributions and returns of capital from investments.

•

Miscellaneous. Other revenues consist primarily of fees and other amounts received from third parties, earned in connection with services rendered by the Company for certain real estate transactions.

Our revenues have grown primarily as a result of growth in our asset base and service offerings. This has resulted in increased fees from assets under management, additional fees from new services, increased investment from our existing and new investors, and increased average investment size. We anticipate that our future growth will continue to depend in part on attracting new investors to our new and existing funds. We plan to increase our sales and marketing spend to attract investors as well as continue to identify and acquire opportunistic real estate assets, using appropriate leverage. As we have invested more resources into our sales and marketing divisions and demonstrated success with previously completed deal cycles, we expect to be able to increase the velocity of investment dollars into our funds at a faster rate than in the past.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have historically financed our operations primarily through a combination of operating cash flows, private offerings of our equity securities, and secured and unsecured debt. At December 31, 2017, we had approximately $7.3 million in corporate debt which carries interest rates ranging from 10.125% up to 33.0%, resulting in approximately $1.5 million in interest expense for the year. We plan on using approximately $7.3 million of the net proceeds of this offering to eliminate this debt in favor of more competitive financing which we believe will be readily available after the completion of this offering. For this reason, we believe we will be able to recognize substantial cost savings and generate increased cash flow from core operations, as well as enabling us to introduce more affordable financing from traditional sources to take advantage of market opportunities which may have previously been unavailable.

Strategy and Competitive Strengths

We are focused on creating wealth for our clients by providing access to high quality real estate investments. Caliber believes that capital organized privately into structured funds offers investors an optimal balance of risk-adjusted return and investment performance. By allowing investors, who may not otherwise be able to purchase a large asset, to participate with a minimum investment of $35,000, Caliber provides typical real estate investors access to sophisticated strategies and assets that they may not otherwise have.

While Caliber’s business model is in part analogous to that of a financial asset manager, our model is built on a full-service approach. We have complemented traditional asset management functions with construction, property management, and deal expertise that we believe creates a competitive advantage against other traditional asset managers models. Compared to non-traded REITs that often come with high cost structures for investors, we offer reduced product origination costs and fund-level fees. By eliminating many of the fees earned at the fund level, and sizing the remaining fees to cover Company overhead, Caliber aligns its profitability with that of its investors. For example, rather than charge a fund-level acquisition fee, as many non-traded REITs do, and then further hire and pay third party real estate brokers, Caliber eliminates the fund-level fee and acts as the broker directly, earning at or below market commissions. And as opposed to charging the fund a construction management fee and then further hire a third party general contractor, Caliber acts as the general contractor, controls the project, and eliminates the double layer of fees. We believe our approach allows us to drive down the cost burden that is borne by funds under a traditional asset management model, increase returns to investors of those funds, and generate long-term sustainable cash flows.

In addition, under Caliber’s approach, we distribute cash to fund investors where there is either a) current income from the investments (rents, etc.) or b) a capital event, such as a sale of an asset or a cash-out refinance. We see substantial opportunity in ensuring distributions are paid from asset income, not investor contributions or borrowed funds. Caliber’s approach offers investors, and their wealth managers, well-structured products with a management team aligned to their success.

Our competitive strengths include:

•

Extensive relationship and sourcing network. We leverage our real estate services businesses 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 have enabled them to cultivate key relationships with major holders of property inventory, in particularly financial institutions, throughout the real estate community.

•

Targeted market opportunities. We focus on markets that have a long-term trend of population growth and income improvement, with a particular focus on Arizona, Colorado, Nevada and Utah, which are states with business and investment-friendly state and local governments. We generally avoid engaging in direct competition in over-regulated and saturated markets.

•

Structuring expertise and speed of execution. Prior real property acquisitions completed by us have taken a variety of forms, including direct property investments, joint ventures, participating loans and investments in performing and non-performing mortgages with the objective of long-term ownership. 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.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Vertically integrated platform for operational enhancement. We have a hands-on approach to real estate investing and possess the local expertise in property management, leasing, construction management, development and investment sales, which we believe enable us to invest successfully in selected submarkets.

•

Focus on the middle market. Our focus on middle market opportunities offers our investors significant alternatives to active, equity investing that provide attractive returns to investors. This focus has allowed us to offer a diversified range of real estate investment opportunities, particularly for accredited investors.

•

Risk protection and investment discipline. We underwrite our investments based upon a thorough examination of property economics and a critical understanding of market dynamics and risk management strategies. We conduct an in-depth sensitivity analysis on each of our acquisitions. This analysis applies various economic scenarios that include changes to rental rates, absorption periods, operating expenses, interest rates, exit values and holding periods. We use this analysis to develop our disciplined acquisition strategies.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

Investing in Caliber Common Stock involves a high degree of risk, and no assurance can be given that you will realize your investment objectives or that you will not lose your entire investment in our shares. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to all other information included in this Offering Circular before purchasing shares of Caliber Common Stock. There are numerous and varied risks that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially adversely affected. You should invest in Caliber Common Stock only if you can afford to lose your entire investment.

You should carefully review this section for a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that we believe are material to our business, operating results, prospects and financial condition. Except as otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR ATTORNEY OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR PRIOR TO MAKING AN INVESTMENT.

Risks Related to Our Business

The success of our business is significantly related to general economic conditions and the real estate industry, and, accordingly, our business could be harmed by an economic slowdown and downturn in real estate asset values, property sales and leasing activities.

Our business is significantly related to general economic conditions in the real estate industry. The real estate markets in which we operate are cyclical and depend on national and local economic conditions. Many factors that are beyond our control affect the real estate market and could affect our ability to sell properties and other investments for the price, on the terms or within the time frame desired. These factors include general economic conditions, the availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand. In addition, the economic condition of each local market where we operate may depend on one or more key industries within that market, which, in turn, makes our business sensitive to the performance of those industries.

We have in the past and expect in the future to be negatively impacted by, periods of economic slowdown or recession, and corresponding declines in the demand for real estate and related services, within the markets in which we operate. The previous recession and the downturn in the real estate market resulted in and may in the future result in:

•

a decline in actual and projected sale prices of real estate properties

•

higher interest rates, higher loan costs, less desirable loan terms and a reduction in the availability of mortgage loans;

•

a decrease in the availability of lines of credit and other sources of capital used to purchase real estate investments; and

•

a general decline in rents due to defaulting tenants or less favorable terms for renewed or new leases.

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

There is the inherent possibility in all of our real estate investments that we could lose all or part of our investment. Real estate 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:

•

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);

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

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

•

liabilities relating to claims, to the extent insurance is not available or is inadequate

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 common stock.

An investment in our 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 common stock. The historical performance of our funds is relevant to us primarily insofar as it is indicative of management fees 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 for a number of factors including:

•

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

•

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 incur risks with respect to each segment of our business. The decline of any single segment could impact our business.

We derive revenues in substantial part from:

•

construction and development fees, which are based on the work completed on our fund assets or other third-party projects

•

capital raising fees, which are based generally on the amount of capital raised into or invested in our funds;

•

fund management fees, which are based generally on the amount of capital committed to or invested in our funds;

•

property management fees are derived from overseeing the day to day operation of properties we acquire and sell; and

•

brokerage commissions derived from the purchase and sale of properties for our funds and others.

The reduction of slowdown in investment and development activities in any of these segments could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Risks Related to Fund Management

Poor performance of our funds would cause a decline in our revenue and results of operations and could adversely affect our ability to raise capital for future funds.

If a fund performs poorly, we risk receiving little or no fund management fees with regards to the fund and little income or possibly losses from such fund. In addition, poor fund performance may deter future investment in our funds, thereby decreasing the capital invested in our funds and thus, our management fee income. Alternatively, in the event of poor fund performance, investors could demand lower fees or fee concessions for existing or future funds which would likewise decrease our revenue.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

A portion of our revenue, net income and cash flow is variable, which may make it difficult for us to achieve steady earnings growth on a quarterly basis.

A portion of our revenue, net income and cash flow is variable, as the completion of the sale of assets and earning of any carried interest that we receive from our funds can vary from quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition, investment income that we may earn from our funds are volatile.

The timing and amount of asset sales and the earning of any carried interest are uncertain and contribute to the volatility of our results. It takes a substantial period of time to identify attractive investment opportunities, to raise funds needed to make an investment and then to realize the cash value or other proceeds of an investment through a sale, 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 when, or if, any realization of a return on investments will occur. If we were to have a realization event in a particular quarter or year, it may have a significant impact on our results for that particular quarter or year that may not be replicated in subsequent periods. We recognize revenue on investments in our funds only when earned or realized.

With respect to our funds that generate carried interest, the timing and receipt of such carried interest varies with the life cycle of our funds and/or achieving certain minimum cash flow hurdles. We receive carried interest payments only upon realization of achieving certain minimum investment returns by the relevant fund, which contributes to the volatility of our cash flow.

We may be subject to litigation risks and may face liabilities and damage to our professional reputation as a result.

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.

Legal liability could have a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition or 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.

Risks Related to Property Management and the Maintenance and Development of Real Estate Assets.

Decreases in the performance of the properties we manage are likely to result in a decline in the amount of property management fees and leasing commissions we generate.

Our property management fees are generally structured as a percentage of the revenues generated by the properties that we manage and our leasing commissions typically are based on the value of the lease commitments. As a result, our revenues are adversely affected by decreases in the performance of the properties we manage and declines in rental value. Property performance depends upon, among other things, our ability to control operating expenses (some of which are beyond our control) and financial conditions generally and in the specific areas where properties are located and the condition of the real estate market generally. If the performance or rental values of the properties we manage decline, our management fees and leasing commissions from such properties could be materially adversely affected.

The concentration of our funds’ investments in a limited number of regions and sectors may make our funds’ business vulnerable to adverse conditions in such regions and to a downturn or slowdown in the sectors. As a result, our funds’ investments may lose value and they may experience losses.

We invest primarily in real estate assets located in a limited number of geographic locations, specifically, in the Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona marketplaces. Investing in a limited number of regions carries the risks associated with significant geographical concentration. Geographic concentration of

TABLE OF CONTENTS

properties exposes our projects to adverse conditions in the areas where the properties are located, including general economic downturns, increased competition, real estate conditions, terrorist attacks, potential impacts from labor disputes, and natural disasters occurring in such markets. Such major, localized events in our primary investment areas could adversely affect our business and revenues, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our property portfolios are comprised primarily of hospitality, commercial, and multifamily and single-family rental properties and development projects. As a result, we are subject to risks inherent in investments in such types of property. The potential effects on our revenue and profits resulting from a downturn or slowdown in these sectors could be more pronounced than if we had more fully diversified our investments.

We may be unsuccessful in developing or renovating the properties we acquire, resulting in investment losses.

Part of our investment strategy is to locate and acquire real estate assets that are yet undeveloped or which we believe are undervalued and to improve them to increase their resale value. Acquiring properties that are not yet developed or in need of substantial renovation or redevelopment is subject to the uncertainties associated with the development and construction of real property, including those related to re-zoning land for development, environment concerns and our builder’s ability to build in conformity with plans, specifications, budgeted costs and timetables. In addition, there is a risk that we overestimate the value of the property or that the cost or time to complete the renovation or redevelopment will exceed the budgeted amount. Such delays or cost overruns may arise from:

•

shortages of materials or skilled labor

•

a change in the scope of the original project

•

difficulty in obtaining necessary zoning, land-use, environmental, building, occupancy and other governmental permits and authorizations;

•

the discovery of structural or other latent defects in the property after we acquire the property; and

•

delays in obtaining tenants

Any failure to complete a development or renovation project in a timely manner and within budget or to sell or lease the project after completion could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operation and financial condition. In addition, we hire and supervise third-party contractors to provide construction and engineering services for our properties. While our role is limited to that of a supervisor, we may be subjected to claims for construction defects or other similar actions. Adverse outcomes from litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to potential environmental liability.

Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the clean-up of hazardous or toxic substances and may be liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by governmental entities or third parties in connection with the contamination. Such laws typically impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances, even when the contaminants were associated with previous owners or operators. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of hazardous or toxic substances may be substantial, and the presence of those substances, or the failure to properly remediate those substances, may adversely affect the owner’s or operator’s ability to sell or rent the affected property or to borrow using the property as collateral. The presence of contamination at a property can impair the value of the property even if the contamination is migrating onto the property from an adjoining property. Additionally, the owner of a site may be subject to claims by parties who have no relation to the property based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the site.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In connection with the direct or indirect ownership, operation, management and development of real properties, we may be considered an owner or operator of those properties or as having arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. Therefore, we may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs.

Before consummating the acquisition of a particular piece of real property, it is our policy to retain independent environmental consultants to conduct an environmental review of the real property, including performing a Phase I environmental review. These assessments typically include, among other things, a visual inspection of the real properties and the surrounding area and a review of relevant federal, state and historical documents. It is possible that the assessments we commission do not reveal all environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are currently unaware. Future laws, ordinances or regulations may impose material environmental liability and the current environmental condition of our properties may be affected by tenants, by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of those properties, or by unrelated third parties. Federal, state, and local agencies or private plaintiffs may bring actions against us in the future, and those actions, if adversely resolved, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

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

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

•

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

•

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;

•

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

•

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 leasing activities depend on various factors, including tenant occupancy and rental rates, which, if adversely affected, could cause our operating results to suffer.

A significant portion of our property management business involves facilitating the leasing of commercial and residential space. Our revenues may be adversely affected if we fail to promptly find tenants for substantial amounts of vacant space, if rental rates on new or renewal leases are significantly lower than expected, or if reserves for costs of re-leasing prove inadequate. A default or termination by a commercial tenant or a large number of residential tenants on their lease payments would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such leases and require us to find an alternative source of revenue to meet mortgage payments, if any, and prevent a foreclosure. In the event of a significant tenant default we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as a landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-leasing such property. If significant tenants default on or terminate a lease, we may be unable to release the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss.

Our reliance on third-parties to operate 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

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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.

We are also parties to hotel management agreements under which unaffiliated third-party property managers manage our hotel properties. 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. In addition, 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.

Competition with third parties in acquiring and leasing properties and other real estate investments may reduce our profitability.

We face significant competition with respect to the acquisition of properties, including REITs, insurance companies, commercial banks, private investment funds, hedge funds, specialty finance companies, online investment platforms and other investors, many of which have greater resources than us. We may not be able to compete successfully for investments. In addition, the number of entities and the amount of funds competing for suitable investments may increase. If we acquire properties at higher prices, our funds’ returns will be lower and the value of their assets may not increase or may decrease significantly below the amount paid for such assets.

Any apartment communities we may acquire competes with numerous housing alternatives in attracting residents, including single-family homes, as well as owner occupied single- and multifamily homes available to rent. Competitive housing in a particular area and the increasing affordability of owner occupied single- and multifamily homes available to rent or buy caused by declining mortgage interest rates and government programs to promote home ownership could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain residents, or increase or maintain rents.

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

Real estate investments are generally illiquid, which may affect our ability to change our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions. Moreover, we may not be able to unilaterally decide the timing of the disposition of an investment, and as a result, we may not control when and whether any gain will be realized or loss avoided. The value of our investments can also be diminished by:

•

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);

•

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

•

liabilities relating to claims, to the extent insurance is not available or is inadequate.

In the event that we underestimate the risks relative to the price we pay for a particular investment, we may experience losses with respect to such investment.

Risks Related to our Real Estate and Securities Brokerage Services

If we fail to comply with laws and regulations applicable to us in our role as a real estate or securities broker, property/facility manager or developer, we may incur significant financial penalties.

We are subject to numerous federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations specific to the services we perform in our brokerage business, as well as laws of broader applicability, such as tax, securities and employment laws. Brokerage of real estate sales and leasing transactions require us to maintain applicable

TABLE OF CONTENTS

licenses in each state in which we perform these services. If we fail to maintain our licenses or conduct these activities without a license, or violate any of the regulations covering our licenses, we may be required to pay fines, return commissions received or have our licenses suspended or revoked.

As a licensed real estate broker, we and our licensed employees are subject to certain statutory due diligence, disclosure and standard-of-care obligations. Failure to fulfill these obligations could subject us or our employees to litigation from parties who purchased, sold or leased properties that we brokered or managed. In addition, we may become subject to claims by participants in real estate sales claiming that we did not fulfill our statutory obligations as a broker.

Risks Related to Our Company

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, property management and brokerage 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 memberships. 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 U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 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 as a result of 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.

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:

•

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

•

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.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We believe that we are engaged primarily in the business of providing investment management services for real estate assets and not primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. We hold ourselves out as a vertically integrated investment 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, or following this offering will be, an “orthodox” investment company as defined in section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act and described in the first bullet point above. Furthermore, following this offering, we will 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 LLC member/LP 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 LLC 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.

We may not be successful in competing with companies in the real estate services and investment industry, some of which may have substantially greater resources than we do.

Real estate investment and services businesses are highly competitive. Many of our competitors have greater financial resources and a broader market presence than we do. We compete with respect to:

•

Diversification of our revenue stream across the deal continuum, including brokerage fees on buying and selling assets, construction fees on repositioning assets, and property management fees on certain multi- and single-family assets; and

•

Competitive fee structures on our fund management services

We depend on the capital markets to grow our balance sheet along with third-party equity and debt financings to acquire properties. We intend to continue to raise a significant amount of third-party equity and debt to acquire real estate assets in the ordinary course of our business. We depend on debt financing from 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/private companies, pension funds, family offices, financial institutions, endowments and money managers. Our access to capital funding is uncertain. Our inability to raise additional capital on terms reasonably acceptable to us could jeopardize the future growth of our business.

Our ability to raise capital from investors depends on a number of factors, including many that are outside our control. Investors may downsize their investment allocations to alternative 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

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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. If economic and market conditions deteriorate, we may be unable to raise sufficient amounts of capital to support the investment activities of future funds. If we were unable to successfully raise capital, our revenue and cash flow would be reduced, and our financial condition would be adversely affected.

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 real estate 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, certain of our officers have strong regional reputations, and they aid in attracting and 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 have in the past incurred and may continue in the future to incur significant amounts of debt to finance acquisitions, which could negatively affect our cash flows and subject our properties or other assets to the risk of foreclosure.

We have historically financed new acquisitions with cash derived from secured and unsecured loans and lines of credit. For instance, we typically purchase real property with loans secured by a mortgage on the property acquired. We could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service costs that could adversely affect our results of operations and increase the risk of default on debt. We may incur additional debt from time to time to finance strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or for other purposes. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

Some of our debt bears interest at variable rates. As a result, we are subject to fluctuating interest rates that may impact, adversely or otherwise, results of operations and cash flows. We may be subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risks that:

•

cash flow may be insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest;

•

existing indebtedness on our properties may not be refinanced and our leverage could increase our vulnerability to general economic downturns and adverse competitive and industry conditions, placing us at a disadvantage compared to those of our competitors that are less leveraged;

•

our debt service obligations could limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and in the commercial real estate services industry;

•

our failure to comply with the restrictive covenants in the documents governing our indebtedness could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, results in foreclosure on substantially all of our assets; and

•

the terms of available new financing may not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness

If we are unable to satisfy the obligations owed to any lender with a lien on one of our properties, the lender could foreclose on the real property or other assets securing the loan and we would lose that property or asset. The loss of any property or asset to foreclosure could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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 organic 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 may enter into new lines of business and 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:

•

the required investment of capital and other resources;

•

the diversion of management’s attention from our core businesses;

•

the assumption of liabilities in any acquired business;

•

the disruption of our ongoing businesses;

•

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

•

increasing demands on our operational and management systems and controls;

•

compliance with additional regulatory requirements;

•

potential increase in investor concentration; and

•

the broadening of our geographic footprint, increasing the risks associated with conducting operations in certain jurisdictions where we currently have no presence.

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.

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

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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.

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

Under applicable US GAAP standards, we may be required to consolidate certain of our funds, limited liability companies, partnerships or operating businesses if we determine that these entities are VIEs and that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The consolidation of such entities could make it difficult for an investor to differentiate the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Company 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, 2017 and 2016, the total assets of our consolidated VIEs reflected in our consolidated balance sheets were $137 million and $131 million, respectively, and as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the total liabilities of our consolidated VIEs reflected in our consolidated balance sheets were $104 million and $99 million, respectively.

Our business could be adversely affected by security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise.

We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems. These risks include operational interruption, private data exposure and damage to our relationship with our customers, among others. A security breach involving our networks and related systems could disrupt our operations in numerous ways that could ultimately have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to the Offering

An investment in our shares is a speculative investment and, therefore no assurance can be given that you will realize your investment objectives.

No assurance can be given that investors will realize a return on their investments in us or that they will not lose their entire investment in our shares. For this reason, each prospective investor of our shares should carefully read this Offering Circular. ALL SUCH PERSONS OR ENTITIES SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR ATTORNEY OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR PRIOR TO MAKING AN INVESTMENT.

There has been no active public market for our common stock prior to this offering, and an active trading market may not be developed or sustained following this offering, which may adversely impact the market for shares of our Common Stock and make it difficult to sell your shares.

Prior to this offering, there was no active market for our common stock. We do not know the extent to which investor interest will lead to the development and maintenance of a liquid trading market, if at all. We intend to list our common stock on a national securities exchange in the future; however, any such

TABLE OF CONTENTS

listing may not occur until months or years after the termination of this offering, if at all. As a result, investors should view our common stock as an illiquid investment. Further, if we do list our shares on a national securities exchange, or another trading market develops, no assurance can be given that the market price of shares of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future or that stockholders will be able to sell their shares when desired on favorable terms, or at all.

This is a fixed price offering and the Offering Price may not accurately represent the current value of us or our assets at any particular time. Therefore, the Offering Price may not be supported by the value of our assets at the time of your purchase.

This is a fixed price offering, which means that the Offering Price is fixed and will not vary based on the underlying value of our assets at any time. Our Board has determined the Offering Price in its sole discretion. The Offering Price has been based on an internal valuation analysis of our Company as a whole. Although we believe the valuation to be fair as of the date it was determined, the fixed offering price established for our shares may not be supported by the current value of our Company or our assets at any particular time.

If investors successfully seek rescission, we would face severe financial demands that we may not be able to meet.

Our Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Securities Act, and are being offered in reliance upon the exemption provided by Section 3(b) of the Securities Act and Regulation A promulgated thereunder. We represent that this Offering Circular does not contain any untrue statements of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of all the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. However, if this representation is inaccurate with respect to a material fact, if this offering fails to qualify for exemption from registration under the federal securities laws pursuant to Regulation A, or if we fail to register the Shares or find an exemption under the securities laws of each state in which we offer the Shares, each investor may have the right to rescind his, her or its purchase of the shares sold hereunder and to receive back from our Company his, her or its purchase price with interest. Such investors, however, may be unable to collect on any judgment, and the cost of obtaining such judgment may outweigh the benefits. If investors successfully seek rescission, we would face severe financial demands we may not be able to meet and it may adversely affect any non-rescinding investors.

We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have the authority to retain all of our earnings for the future operation and expansion of our business. While we are obligated to pay dividends on our outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, we do not intend to make any cash distributions to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. Investors should not expect to receive income on an ongoing basis from an investment in us.

Risks Related to Benefit Plan Investors

Fiduciaries investing the assets of a trust or pension or profit sharing plan must carefully assess an investment in our Company to ensure compliance with ERISA.

In considering an investment in our Company of a portion of the assets of a trust or a pension or profit-sharing plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and exempt from tax under Section 501(a), a fiduciary should consider (i) whether the investment satisfies the diversification requirements of Section 404 of ERISA; (ii) whether the investment is prudent, since the shares sold hereunder are not freely transferable and there may not be a market created in which the shares sold hereunder may be sold or otherwise disposed; and (iii) whether interests in our Company or the underlying assets owned by our Company constitute “Plan Assets” under ERISA. See “Erisa Considerations.”

YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN ATTORNEYS, ACCOUNTANTS AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVISORS AS TO THE LEGAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING AND OTHER CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN CALIBER COMMON STOCK.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds of a fully subscribed offering, after total offering expenses, will be approximately $ million. Caliber plans to use these proceeds as follows:

•

Approximately $ million towards to-be-target redevelopment and similar strategic real estate projects. The total includes additional expenses related to .

•

Approximately $ million to repay high interest rate debt in favor of more competitive financing which we believe will be readily available after the completion of this offering.

•

Approximately $ million will be used for infrastructure enhancements to our operating and controls systems.

•

Approximately $ million will be used for general corporate purposes.

If the offering size were to be $ million, then we estimate that the net proceeds to Caliber would be approximately $ million. In such an event, Caliber would adjust its use of proceeds by delaying or canceling key initiatives resulting in a limit in the size and scope of to-be-targeted real estate projects.

Because the offering is a “best efforts” offering without a minimum offering amount, we may close the offering without sufficient funds for all the intended purposes set out above.

We do not have agreements or commitments for any redevelopment projects at this time. Other than the payment of the Company’s officers’ and directors’ salaries, none of the proceeds of this offering will be used to compensate or otherwise make payments to our subsidiaries’ officers or directors. General corporate purposes may include, but are not limited to, the costs of this offering, including our outside legal and accounting expenses, employee payroll, rent and real estate expenses, utilities, computer hardware and software and promotion and marketing. Our management has sole discretion regarding the use of proceeds from the sale of Caliber Common Stock. We reserve the right to change the use of proceeds as business demands dictate.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DILUTION

If you invest in Caliber Common Stock, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the $ offering price per share (the “Offering Price”) of Caliber Common Stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of Caliber Common Stock immediately after this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the Offering Price is substantially in excess of the pro forma net tangible book value per share attributable to the existing equity holders.

Our pro forma net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2017 was approximately $ , or approximately $ per share of Caliber Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. Pro forma net tangible book value represents the amount of total tangible assets less total liabilities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

BUSINESS

We are focused on creating wealth for our clients by providing access to high quality real estate investments. Caliber believes that capital organized privately into structured funds offers investors an optimal balance of risk-adjusted return and investment performance. By allowing investors who may not otherwise be able to purchase a large asset, to participate with a minimum investment of $35,000, Caliber provides typical real estate investors access to sophisticated strategies and assets that they may not otherwise have.

The Company’s operations are organized into eight reportable segments for management and financial reporting purposes, which are broadly separated in two categories; real estate services (Fund/Asset Management, Construction & Development, Property Management, Real Estate Brokerage) and real estate operations (Hospitality, Residential, Commercial, and Diversified). Each segment works closely together and plays a critical role in supporting our investment strategy by providing local market intelligence and real-time data for evaluating investments, generating proprietary transaction flow and creating value through efficient implementation of asset management strategies.

Fund Management

Fund Management represents the Company’s fund management activities along with back office and corporate support functions including accounting and human resources. It also includes the activities associated with Caliber Securities, LLC, which generates fees from capital raising. We act as an asset manager of our private equity real estate funds, or Funds, which have diversified investment objectives. Generally, Caliber Services, LLC, and its subsidiaries, or Caliber Services, act as manager of the Funds. As of December 31, 2017, our assets under management consisted of $214 million and the value of our real property portfolio was approximately $279 million. Approximately $275 million of the assets under

TABLE OF CONTENTS

management are managed directly by Caliber Services, LLC, or indirectly through one of its subsidiaries. Since inception, we have raised over $107 million from accredited investors. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated approximately $3.5 million and $2.3 million of revenue from our fund management activities, respectively, of which approximately $1.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively are eliminated in consolidation. On an unconsolidated basis, Caliber’s fund management fees represented approximately 13% of corporate entity’s total unconsolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

We earn fund management fees for services rendered to each of the Funds by Caliber Services. Below is an overview of the fees we earn:

•

Set-Up Fee. We charge an initial one-time fee related to the initial formation, administration and set-up of the applicable Fund.

•

Management Fee. We receive an annual management fee in an amount equal to 1.50% of the non-affiliate capital contributions to each of the Funds.

•

Carried Interest. We receive 20%-35% of all cash distributions from (i) the operating cash flow of each Fund, net of all 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, net of all priority preferred returns and repayment of preferred capital contributions.

Through our wholly owned Arizona registered issuer-dealer, Caliber Securities, LLC, we earn fees from raising capital into our Funds. Our contracts with our funds are typically fixed fee arrangements which approximate no more than 3.50% on the dollars raised for any one project. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated approximately $0.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively of which approximately $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively are eliminated in consolidation. On an unconsolidated basis, Caliber Securities represented approximately 2% and 5% of Corporate entity’s total unconsolidated earnings for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Construction and Development

Our Construction and Development segment represents the Company’s activities associated with asset remodeling and refurbishment and ground up construction. The majority of the revenues generated by this segment are earned from work completed on assets held in our funds. Caliber Development, LLC, or Caliber Development, a wholly owned subsidiary of Caliber Services, LLC, acts as the general contractor on our projects. Our strategy for this segment is to complete high-quality work while maintaining competitive margins so that the benefits are passed along to the investors of the related funds. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated approximately $20.5 million and $11.7 million, respectively of which approximately $16 million and $6.7 million, respectively are eliminated in consolidation. On an unconsolidated basis, Caliber Development represented approximately 76% and 64% of Corporate entity’s total unconsolidated earnings for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Property Management

Keeping our single family and multi-family properties rented is the primary focus of our Property Management division. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary Caliber Realty, LLC, or Caliber Realty, we execute our property management strategy using the ‘Drive to 95’ concept: 95% occupancy, at 95% of market rates. We provide property management services to both our funds and third-party property owners. In some instances, we may engage an external service provider to assist in increasing occupancy for specific and niche assets. Revenues in this segment are driven by property management fees, which are generally based upon percentages of the rental revenue or gross rent generated by such properties. Property management revenue also includes fees charged to property management customers for leasing commissions, which are generally based on the amount of the new lease executed with a minimum flat fee. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated approximately $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively of which approximately $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively are eliminated in consolidation. On an unconsolidated basis, Property Management represented approximately 3% of Corporate entity’s total unconsolidated earnings for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Real Estate Brokerage

Whenever Caliber is involved in a transaction involving real estate acquisition or sale, we collect fees for brokering the arrangement, through Caliber Realty. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated approximately $1.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively of which approximately $1.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively are eliminated in consolidation. On an unconsolidated basis, real estate brokerage represented approximately 7% and 15% of Corporate entity’s total unconsolidated earnings for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Our Fund Portfolio

The following discussion relates to the activities of our various consolidated and unconsolidated Funds which are generally structured as separate limited liability companies or partnerships. Outside of its interests as the manager or general partner of these funds, CaliberCos’ benefits in these entities are limited to CaliberCos’ direct membership or partnership interests, if any. Investors in CaliberCos should understand that the majority of the profit and/or loss of any of these Funds or rights and obligations to its related assets and liabilities, respectively, is limited or in some cases unavailable.

We focus our offerings on middle market accredited investors. To meet our investors’ changing needs and demand for quality real asset opportunities, we manage investments in an increasingly wide range of Funds across a line of complementary strategies. We have demonstrated an ability to consistently generate attractive and differentiated investment returns across these investment strategies and through various market environments. We believe the scope of our product offering, our expertise in various investment strategies and our proficiency in attracting and satisfying our investor base has enabled, and will continue to enable, us to increase our assets under management across each of our investment groups in a balanced manner.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We intend to form future funds to target additional real estate objectives and opportunities. These may include funds which take advantage of certain tax incentive programs, such as the Opportunity Zone Program introduced by the recently enacted Investment in Opportunity Act, a bill with a goal to encourage private capital investment in economically distressed areas.

Hospitality

Our Hospitality segment represents one of Caliber’s largest fund segments accounting for 53.7% and 60.3% of our total assets under management at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Through the Funds we manage, we acquire hotels in certain opportunistic situations in which we are able to purchase at a discount to replacement cost or can implement our value-add investment approach. As of December 31, 2017, we have a total of 8 hotels under management, located in Tucson, Phoenix, and Scottsdale, Arizona, and Ketchikan, Alaska. Our portfolio of hotels represents over 1,200 rooms under management across multiple brands including Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn, and Hilton.

We earn property operating revenue from our hospitality operations consisting of revenues generated primarily by the hotel properties we own. This includes revenue from room rentals, food and beverage sales, banquet and group sales and other hotel operating activities. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we generated hospitality revenues of approximately $46 million and $30 million, respectively.

Residential

Our Residential segment includes single-family homes owned by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Caliber Auction Homes, LLC, and single and multi-family properties held by our funds. We pursue single-family acquisition opportunities as part of our Caliber Residential Advantage Fund investment strategy where we acquire undervalued homes and transform them through major or minor remodeling. Currently, all our single-family properties are located in Arizona. As of December 31, 2017, we have a total of 52 single-family properties under management.

We pursue multi-family acquisition opportunities where we believe we can unlock value through a myriad of strategies, including asset rehabilitation, repositioning and creative recapitalization. We focus primarily on apartments in supply-constrained, in-filled markets. As of December 31, 2017, we have purchased over 774 units across 6 separate apartment complexes.

Our residential segment represents approximately 32.4% and 34.4% of total assets under management at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Commercial

Our Commercial segment includes properties representing both traditional office space and self-storage facilities. As of December 31, 2017, we are involved in 8 different commercial properties, located in Gilbert, Mesa, Kingman, and Casa Grande, Arizona, Henderson, Nevada, Johnstown Colorado, and Logan, Utah.

Our Commercial segment represents approximately 13.8% and 5.3% of total assets under management at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Competition

The investment management industry is intensely competitive, and we expect it to remain so. We compete primarily on a regional, industry and asset 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.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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 in some of our businesses 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 us, 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. Lastly, institutional and individual investors are allocating increasing amounts of capital to alternative investment strategies. Several large institutional investors have announced a desire to consolidate their investments in a more limited number of managers. We expect that this will cause competition in our industry to intensify and could lead to a reduction in the size and duration of pricing inefficiencies that our funds seek to exploit.

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 has regulatory powers dealing with many aspects of financial services, including the authority to grant, and in specific circumstances to cancel, permissions to carry on particular activities. Any failure to comply with these rules and regulations could expose us to liability and/or reputational damage. In addition, 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.

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. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Company — 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” and “Investment Company Act Considerations”.

Corporate Office

Our corporate office is located at 8901 E. Mountain View Rd., Scottsdale, Arizona, 85258, which we lease. We believe that we our current space is suitable and adequate for conducting our business, however, we may need to relocate offices in the future in the event that we hire additional employees.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Offering Circular. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the “Risk Factors” section of this Offering Circular for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

Our business is focused on creating wealth for our clients by providing access to high quality real estate investments. While Caliber’s business model may seem analogous to that of a financial asset manager, we have complemented that responsibility with construction, property management, and deal expertise that creates a competitive advantage against other traditional asset managers models. We believe our approach allows us to drive down the cost burden that is borne by funds under a traditional asset management model, increase returns to investors of those funds, and generate long-term sustainable cash flows to Caliber that are largely resistant to economic cyclicality.

Real Estate Services

Fund Management — Our Fund Management segment represents our sponsorship and project management activities with respect to our 15 funds, each of which has differing investment objectives, sizes, and growth opportunities. This segment would generate approximately $XX million of carried interest if the portfolio sold at its current fair value. This segment also includes our Caliber Securities, LLC, the issuer dealer who raises capital exclusively for our funds. Caliber Securities, LLC generates fees of up to 3.5% on the capital raised.

Construction and development — Our Construction and development segment operates as a general contractor on all of Caliber’s construction projects from ground up builds, remodels and repairs and maintenance. As of December 31, 2017, approximately 94% of the segment’s revenues were derived from projects performed on the assets held by our funds and had approximately $36 million of projects in various stages of completion.

Property management — Our property management segment manages the single family and multi-family assets of our fund portfolio and other similar assets held and owned by third parties. As of December 31, 2017, approximately 52.7% of the segment’s revenues were derived from assets held by our funds.

Real estate brokerage — Our real estate brokerage segment is involved in executing the buying and selling of all our fund assets and completing the buy and sell transactions of other properties for third parties. As of December 31, 2017, our brokerage segment completed approximately $63 million in transactions generating approximately $1.9 million of brokerage fees.

Real Estate Operations

Hospitality — Our hospitality segment manages our 8 hotel funds with operations in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Tucson, Arizona and Ketchikan, Alaska. As of December 31, 2017, our hospitality segment had approximately $147 million of assets under management.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Residential — Our residential segment manages our 3 multi-family assets and our single-family asset portfolio held in the Caliber Residential Advantage Fund and Caliber Auction Homes, LLC. As of December 31, 2017, our residential segment had approximately $90 million of assets under management.

Commercial — Our commercial segment manages our 2 office buildings and 3 self-storage facilities. As of December 31, 2017, our commercial segment had approximately $38 million of assets under management.

Diversified — Our diversified segment manages our diversified fund portfolio (CDIF and CDOF II), and CFIF II our lending fund. As of December 31, 2017, our diversified segment had approximately $92 million of assets under management.

Each segment works closely together and plays a critical role in supporting our investment strategy by providing local market intelligence and real-time data for evaluating investments, generating proprietary transaction flow and creating value through efficient implementation of fund management strategies. We earn management fees pursuant to contractual arrangements with Caliber funds and allocate certain direct and indirect costs related to overhead and marketing. We also earn a performance-based fee from our funds which is typically in the form of a special residual allocation of income known as carried interest, but only to the extent that certain minimum investment results are achieved by the related fund. Under US GAAP we are required to consolidate some of the investment funds that we manage. However, for segment reporting purposes, we present revenues and expenses on a basis that deconsolidates these funds and includes our other funds that are not consolidated.

Since inception, we have originated approximately $229 million in both equity and debt investments deployed across real estate valued at approximately $360 million. Our aggregate net capital raised has increased at an average annual growth rate of 50% (from $15 million to $107 million) over the five-year period ending December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, none of our sponsored Programs (as described below) have suffered any loss of principal or projected interest; however, there can be no assurance that such performance will continue in the future.

Trends Affecting Our Business

In December 2017, the President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or TCJA, providing a significant overhaul to the U.S. federal tax code. We expect the TCJA to be a net positive impact to the U.S. economy, at least in the short term. Since all of our Funds are structured as tax exempt entities, we do not expect significant impacts to our Funds as a result of this enactment. By contrast, we believe that the impact of TCJA broadly reducing tax rates and increasing deductions will have a beneficial impact to us in future years where we begin to generate positive income and we will continue to evaluate the provisions of the TCJA for any further potential impact.

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. We have experienced increased volatility in the stock market throughout Q1-2018 with the Cboe Volatility index increasing as much as 46.6% month over month. As the markets continue to demonstrate unpredictable trends, we believe the increasing appetite for stable real assets will be a continuing trend. Since our inception we have continued to successfully raise capital into our funds with our total capital raised through December 31, 2017 exceeding $200 million. We expect that our fundraising capabilities will continue in 2018. While we have had historical successes, there can be no assurance that fundraises for our new and existing funds will experience similar success. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Company”. Our business depends in large part on our ability to raise capital from investors. If we were unable to raise such capital, we would be unable to collect management fees or 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 as we begin to branch outside of Arizona. We are at a point in our deal 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 for our construction and development segment. We expect this trend to continue in 2018, and therefore expect management fees and construction fees to increase year over year.

Acquiring new assets includes being able to negotiate favorable loans on both a short and long-term basis. We forecast and project our returns using assumptions about, among other things, the types of loans that we can 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 the real property, and the profitability of the asset’s historical operations.

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 Caliber manages throughout the deal cycle will continue to offer an attractive value proposition to investors.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation includes the expense related to restricted stock grants made to our employees. All stock-based awards made to employees are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their estimated fair value on the date of grant. As of December 31, 2017, the fair value of the shares granted had been established by our board of directors primarily based upon a Section 409A valuation provided by an independent third-party valuation firm.

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of 4 years.

Share awards issued to non-employees are recorded at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, which is estimated using the same methodology described above.

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeitures, such that expense is recorded only for those stock-based awards that are expected to vest. Forfeitures of awards are estimated at the time of grant and revised, as necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates or if future forfeitures are expected to differ from recent actual or previously expected forfeitures. Our management has used an estimated forfeiture rate of % to modify the fair value of stock based compensation expense as of date of grant. The assumed forfeiture rate is the annual percentage of unvested stock options that are assumed to be forfeited or cancelled due to grantees discontinuing employment with us. Because service-based share awards normally vest over a four-year period, the forfeiture assumption is used to estimate the number of shares that are expected to vest in future periods, which affects the estimate of the forfeiture-adjusted aggregate stock-based compensation expense related to the shares. The forfeiture assumption was developed considering our actual annual forfeiture rates for unvested stock awards over the past four years and analyzing the distribution of unvested stock awards held by directors, executive officers, and other employees as of . Holding other assumptions constant, a higher forfeiture rate reduces the number of shares expected to vest in future periods, which lowers the estimated forfeiture-adjusted aggregate stock-based compensation expense related to any affected stock awards.

Key Financial Measures

Our key financial measures are discussed in the following pages. Additional information regarding these key financial measures and our other significant accounting policies can be found in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included herein.

Total Revenue

We generate the majority of our revenue from (i) construction and development income, (ii) fund management fees, (iii) brokerage commissions, (iv) hospitality income, (v) real estate sales, and (vi) rental income.

Construction and Development Income. We earn construction and development income for providing construction management and general contractor services to third-party clients and our Funds. Construction and development income is recognized at the time services are performed. We measure the progress toward completion of the project to determine the amount of revenue and profit to be recognized in each reporting period. Profit is recorded based upon the product of estimated contract profit-at-completion times the current percentage-complete for the contract. Our progress estimates are based upon estimates of the total cost to complete the project, which considers, among other things, the current project schedule and anticipated completion date, as well as estimates of the extent of progress toward completion. While progress is generally based upon costs incurred in relation to total estimated costs at completion, we also use alternative methods including physical progress, labor hours incurred to total estimated labor hours at completion or others depending on the type of project.

Fund Management Fees. Fund management fees include management fees and performance fees. We earn management fees for sponsorship and project management activities with respect to Caliber funds in which we hold a general partner interest. Fund management fees exclude the reimbursement of any company expenses paid by the Company on behalf of the Funds pursuant to the respective fund operating agreements, including professional fees, expenses associated with the acquisition, and other fund administrative expenses. Performance fees are comprised of either annual incentive fees which are earned when the related fund has achieved a minimum stated annual rate of return or performance-based capital allocation from fund limited partners/members to us, commonly known as carried interest. Caliber recognizes carried interest revenue when its earned and our carry is deemed collectible.

Brokerage Commissions. We earn real estate brokerage commissions by acting as a broker for real estate owners seeking to sell or investors seeking to buy properties. We also earn these fees on transactions that are consummated for each of our funds. Revenues from real estate brokerage commissions are typically recognized at the close of escrow. Real estate brokerage commissions are typically based upon the value of the property.

Hospitality Income. We recognize hospitality income based on activities generated by our consolidated hotel assets which include room rentals, food and beverage sales, and other sales.

Real Estate Sales. Real estate sales are recognized generally when the sale of an asset has been completed, cash has been received, and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer.

Rental Income. Rental income includes periodic rent collected from each of our single-family, multi-family, and commercial assets. Revenue is recognized when earned and collectability is reasonably assured.

Total Expenses

Total expenses include cost of sales associated with each of hospitality, construction, real estate, and brokerage, operating costs, general and administrative, marketing and advertising, franchise fees, management fees, and depreciation.

Cost of Sales — Hospitality. These costs of sales include salaries and materials incurred to generate revenue for room rentals and food and beverage sales at our hotels.

Cost of Sales — Construction/Development. These represent the materials, labor and overhead applied to each of the construction projects the Company was involved in.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Cost of Sales — Real Estate. These costs represent the historical basis of the properties that were sold in the period.

Cost of Sales — Brokerage. These costs represent the commissions paid by the Company to its brokers who were involved in closing the associated real estate transaction.

Operating Costs. Operating costs include payroll related to our operating properties, repairs and maintenance costs, insurance, property taxes, utilities, and ground leases amortization.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses include corporate level payroll, professional fees, travel and related expenses and communications and information services. We expect that general and administrative expenses will vary due to infrequent or unusual items such as expenses associated with litigation and contingencies. Also, in periods of significant fund raising, our general and administrative expenses will increase accordingly.

Marketing and advertising. The majority of our marketing and advertising spend is done by our hotel operations to help increase room stays and promote corporate events. This category also contains the costs spent directly by Caliber to hold Caliber Summit monthly and annual events. These events raise awareness in the investment community about Caliber’s newest funds and is an important part of Caliber’s ability to raise capital for new projects.

Franchise fees. These fees are paid by the hotels to maintain their brand each year and are based on a percentage of the revenue generated by each hotel respectively.

Management fees. These costs represent fees paid to third-party service providers. All management fees paid to Caliber by a consolidated fund, are eliminated in consolidation.

Depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related property, plant, and equipment and ranges from 3 to 40 years depending on the asset type.

Other (Income) Expenses

Other (Income) expenses include interest expense, (gains)/losses from disposal, income taxes, and non-controlling interest in consolidated entities.

Consolidation of Certain Caliber Funds

The Company consolidates all entities that it controls either through majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities. On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-2, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which provides a revised consolidation model for all reporting entities to use in evaluating whether to consolidate certain types of legal entities. Certain of Caliber’s funds are consolidated by Caliber even though Caliber has only a minority economic interest in those funds. Caliber’s financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of the Consolidated Funds, on a gross basis. The majority of the economic interest in the Consolidated Funds, which are held by fund investors or other third parties, are attributed to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated financial statements. All of our management fees, construction revenues, and certain other amounts earned by Caliber from those funds are eliminated in consolidation. Further information on our consolidation policy can be found in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 1-A.

As of December 31, 2017, our Consolidated Funds represent approximately 63.6% of our AUM and 33.8% of our management fees.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not recognized measurements under GAAP. 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 GAAP. We generally use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes. We believe that these measures provide a more complete understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of current results to prior periods and may be useful for investors to analyze our financial performance because they eliminate the impact of selected charges that may obscure trends in the underlying performance of our business. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly identified measures of other companies.

EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Amounts shown for adjusted EBITDA further remove (from EBITDA) the impact of certain cash and non-cash charges related to acquisition costs, legal and accounting costs associated with getting the Company prepared for filing this Form 1-A, severance payments, and asset impairment charges.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for our discretionary use because they do not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. 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.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, total revenue was $67.4 million and $39.7 million, respectively, representing a year-over-year increase of $27.7 million or 70.1%. Of the increase in revenue, $16.3 million is due to two of our hotels, acquired in 2016, earning a full year of revenue. $8.4 million of the increase relates to the sale of our interest in the Uptown Apartment Complex, or Uptown, in Phoenix, Arizona and increase in the sale of our single-family home portfolio. $2.4 million of the increase relates to a multi-family apartment, acquired in 2016, earning a full year of revenue.

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, total expenses were $64.4 million and $41.1 million, respectively, representing a year-over-year increase of $23.2 million or 56.5%. The increase relates to a full year of performance for two of our hotels, acquired in 2016. The full year of performance drove a $6.2 million increase in cost of goods sold, $4.2 million increase of operating costs, $2.8 million increase in general and administrative costs, $1.1 million increase in marketing and advertising, $1.1 million increase in franchise fees, and $1.6 million increase in depreciation expense. This was complemented by an increase of $5.9 million in our cost of sales — real estate due to the sale of Uptown and sales of our single-family home portfolio.

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, total other expenses were $11.6 million and $8.8 million, respectively, representing a year-over-year increase of $2.7 million or 30.4%. The increase relates to higher interest expense generated by the two hotels and multi-family apartment acquired in 2016 (ie. a full year of operations and debt outstanding). This was offset by a one-time loss from damage recognized against one of our other multi-family apartments in 2016. In addition, we have historically financed our operations primarily through a combination of operating cash flows, private offerings of our equity securities, and secured and unsecured debt. At December 31, 2017, we had approximately $7.3 million in corporate debt which carries interest rates ranging from 10.125% up to 33.00%, resulting in approximately $1.5 million in interest expense for the year. We plan on using approximately $7.3 million of the net proceeds of the Offering to eliminate this debt in favor of more competitive financing which we believe will be readily available after the completion of this offering. For this reason, we believe we will be able to recognize substantial cost savings and generate increased cash flow from core operations, as well as enabling us to introduce more affordable financing from traditional sources to take advantage of market opportunities which may have previously been unavailable.

We may experience ongoing losses in our business due to the lifecycle of the assets we hold. Our investment strategy often identifies distressed and opportunistic assets which often times, require some level of remodeling or repositioning projects. In order to complete these projects timely, it is often necessary to cease operations which has a negative impact on short term profitability and cash flows. Once the projects are completed, management brings the assets back online. Achieving full capacity can take between 24 to 36 months of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 our loss experience was a result of the mixture of assets that were in various stages of their respective lifecycle and project completion time horizons. The chart below summarizes the Company’s various assets and the scale (in dollars) and timing of their rehabilitation/stabilization.

Segment Analysis

The following discussion is specific to our various segments for the periods presented. Our segment information is presented in a format consistent with the information senior management uses to make operating decisions, assess performance and allocate resources.

For segment reporting purposes, revenues and expenses are presented on a basis that deconsolidates our Consolidated Funds. As a result, segment revenues from construction and development income, fund management fees, and brokerage income are different than those presented on a consolidated US GAAP basis because these fees are eliminated in consolidation when they are derived from a consolidated fund. Furthermore, segment expenses are also different than those presented on a consolidated US GAAP basis due to the exclusion of fund expenses that are paid by the consolidated funds.

Fund management fees increased by $1.17 million from 2016 to 2017. Approximately $513,000 of this increase relates to management fees. We generally earn about 1.5% on the total capital managed for each fund and successfully raised $34.7 million in 2017. In addition, fee income increased by $570,000 from 2016 to 2017, due largely to organization and set up fees earned upon the creation of the Caliber Diversified Opportunity Fund II, LP in June 2017.

Capital raise fees represent the income generated by Caliber Securities, LLC on raising capital into our funds. The fees earned are fixed in nature but are structured to be 3.5% or less of the total capital raised into any one fund. Earnings decreased by $391,000 from 2016 to 2017. Total capital raised by Caliber Securities in 2017 was $17.47 million compared to $20.3 million in 2016. In addition, the fees generated in 2016 include $100,000 relating to the sale of Golden West, our property management portfolio in Tucson.

Operating costs increased from 2016 to 2017 by approximately $216,000 largely due to reclassifying accounts in 2017 between operating costs and general and administrative expenses. This resulted in a $100,000 of the year over year increase. We also engaged in an executive and leadership training program which was executed in November 2017.

General and administrative costs increased year over year by approximately $612,000. In addition to the reclassification of costs between this category and operating costs in 2017, payroll increased by $600,000 in 2017 as we increased the capabilities of the accounting and finance and human resource departments. In addition, we also spent an additional $100,000 in professional fees specifically in legal and audit as part of preparing for this offering.

Other (income) expense increased by approximately $153,000 from 2016 to 2017 due to the write off of unamortized intangible asset (customer list) that was not transferred in the sale of our Golden West portfolio and the additional costs, borne by Caliber as the manager of 47th Street Phoenix Fund, LLC, relating to obtaining short term acquisition bridge financing.

Construction and development revenues increased to $20.6 million from $11.6 million for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The $8.9 million increase in revenue was a result of more expansive construction projects being completed in 2017. In particular our Hilton hotel located in Tucson was undergoing a full remodel whose total project cost was estimated to be approximately $8.5 million. In addition, we began the rebuild of our student housing project in GC Square, LLC. This project was estimated to be approximately $5.5 million.

Cost of sales and operating costs increased consistently with revenues, as management increased headcount to contemplate the anticipated increased project scope in 2017. We have focused on maintaining margins between 8% and 15% on our construction work. The higher margins are derived on third-party projects. The lower margins are charged on work completed on Caliber funds.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Property management income and expenses increased year over year due to our operation of the Palms Apartment portfolio for a full year in 2017.

Our real estate brokerage income decreased by approximately $865,000 from 2016 to 2017. In 2016, we acquired two large hotels (Hiltons branded hotels located in Phoenix and Tucson) and the Palms Apartment portfolio. The combined purchase price of these three assets was approximately $60 million. Brokerage income from the sale of residential properties remained flat over the same period.

Our brokerage cost of sales increased by approximately $173,000 from 2016 to 2017, mainly because a larger portion of our sales were completed by independent brokers in 2017. In 2017, 80% of our brokerage sales were completed by independent brokers, compared to 46% in 2016.

Hospitality revenues increased by approximately $16.5 million from 2016 to 2017. This was due in large part to two Hilton acquisitions completed in 2016, which earned approximately $20.4 million in 2017 (representing a full year of revenue) compared to $5.0 million for the portion of the year owned in 2016. In addition, our hotel operations were successful at driving up rate and occupancy at all of our hotel assets. This resulted in approximately $1.2 million of additional revenues from 2016 to 2017. Our average rate and occupancy increased at our properties by 3.3% and 2.8%, respectively from 2016 to 2017.

Hospitality expenses increased from 2016 to 2017 by approximately $14.3 million due to there being a full year’s worth of operational activity being recorded in 2017 for the two Hilton branded hotels that were acquired in 2016.

Sales in our Residential segment increased by approximately $7.8 million from 2016 to 2017. We sold the Uptown Square Apartments in December 2017 for approximately $3 million. In addition, we sold more of our home inventory in 2017. In 2017 we sold 35 homes for total proceeds of approximately $7.8 million. In 2016, we sold 6 homes for approximately $2.4 million. These transactions also had a similar effect on cost of sales increasing it by $5.4 million year over year.

Rental incomes increased by approximately $3.5 million from 2016 to 2017 due to the success of our programs focused on increasing occupancy at three of our apartments (Treehouse, Mountain View, and South Mountain Square). In addition, we realized a full year of operations of the Palms Apartment portfolio which generated approximately $4.1 million and $1.4 million of rental income in 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Expenses, net of cost of sales, increased by approximately $2.5 million due to the full year of operation of the Palms apartment portfolio. In addition, the Treehouse apartments were not fully operational throughout 2016 having just completed its full renovations. The renovations were completed in Q1 2016 and operations were being brought back online gradually over the remaining period in anticipation for the start of the academic year in September. 2017 represents a full year of full operations.

The Commercial segment continued to yield positive results from our investment in Baywood. The asset had yielded total sales of $450,000 in 2016 which grew to approximately $995,000 in 2017. Rental income grew by 63.66% from 2016 to 2017, largely due to an increase in our self-storage portfolio including properties in Logan, Utah and Kingman, Arizona which translated into approximately $227,000 of additional income. In addition, we acquired a portfolio of properties in downtown Mesa which includes the acquisition of 8 separate buildings and will undergo a full revitalization of the downtown neighborhood.

Expenses for the segment increased by approximately $218,000 from 2016 to 2017 due to the full year of operations of our self-storage asset in Kingman, and the new investments in downtown Mesa and Logan Utah.

CFIF I/II distributions are akin to interst expense

Our Diversified segment experienced growth in 2017 due to an increase in the distributions received from investments made by CDIF, LLC and the introduction of CDOF II, LLC which opened in June 2017. We raised approximately $8.6 million into CDOF II, LLC in 2017. The opening of CDOF II, LLC resulted in approximately $840,000 of additional expenses due to origination and fund set up fees, marketing costs, and management fees.

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, CDIF, LLC generated a total of approximately $3.8 million and $495,000, respectively of investment income. The increase year over year was attributable to $2.9 million from the refinancing of the Treehouse apartments, $250,000 from continued cash flow from Baywood and approximately $100,000 from our new investments in the Hilton Phoenix and Palms apartments.

Key Operating and Financial Metrics

We regularly review a number of metrics to evaluate our funds, measure our performance, identify trends, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions.

Assets Under Management

Assets under management, or “AUM, refers to the assets we manage or advise. We monitor two types of AUM:

(i)

Capital AUM — This is the total debt and equity capital raised from accredited investors in our funds at any point in time, as well as debt and equity capital raised directly in CaliberCos Inc. We use this information to monitor, among other things, the amount of ‘preferred return’ that would be paid at the time of a distribution. Our management fees are based on a percentage of capital raised so we monitor Capital AUM to understand and predict our earnings. We earn management fees on the equity capital raised into our funds, and do not earn fees on debt capital or any capital raised directly in CaliberCos Inc.

(ii)

Fair Value (“FV”) AUM — This is the aggregate fair value of the real estate assets we manage or advise. We regularly value our operating assets 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 our carried interest.

Our calculation of Capital AUM and FV AUM may differ from our competitors, thereby making these metrics non-comparable to our competitors. Our AUM calculations are not based on any definition of AUM that is set forth in the respective operating agreements governing the funds we manage or advise.

The following table presents Capital AUM and FV AUM by segment as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Each of our funds and the related assets that are acquired by 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.

We have historically financed our operations primarily through a combination of operating cash flows, private offerings of our equity securities, and secured and unsecured debt.

We hold our excess unrestricted cash in bank accounts with several high quality financial institutions. We believe that our current capital position is sufficient to meet our current liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months, however, there can be no assurance that our current capital position will meet our liquidity needs for such period.

Equity Financings

Since inception, we have raised approximately $13 million from the sale of common and convertible preferred stock to third parties and management. The funds received from the issuance of our stock sales have been used for operating expenditures and refinancing our higher interest debt.

Unsecured Corporate Debt

As of December 31, 2017, we have issued and outstanding approximately $7.3 million of unsecured promissory notes with outstanding principal balances ranging from $10,750 to $950,000, and interest rates ranging from 10.125% to 33.0% and maturity dates ranging from January 2018 to November 2018. This outstanding debt resulted in approximately $1.5 million in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2017. We plan on using approximately $7.3 million of the net proceeds of the Offering to eliminate this debt in favor of more competitive financing which we believe will be readily available after the completion of this offering. For this reason, we believe we will be able to recognize substantial cost savings and generate increased cash flow from core operations, as well as enabling us to introduce more affordable financing from traditional sources to take advantage of market opportunities which may have previously been unavailable. As of June 30, 2018, $ of such debt was outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of %.

Secured Corporate Debt

As of December 31, 2017, we have issued and outstanding approximately $1.5 million of debt secured by our single-family home portfolio. This debt has outstanding principal balances ranging from $35,000 to $400,000, and interest rates ranging from 9.0% to 12.125%. All had reached their initial maturity date and were due to be repaid when the related home is sold.

We do not have any additional credit facilities in place, but believe we could obtain one if desired on market terms.

Accounting Standards Codification 205-40

Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern, which was codified as Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, requires management to evaluate an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that financial statements are

TABLE OF CONTENTS

issued, or in the Company’s case April 19, 2019. The standard provides examples of adverse conditions and events that may raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern including (i) negative financials trends such as recurring operating losses, working capital deficiencies, negative cash flows from operating activities and adverse key financials ratios and (ii) other indications of possible financial difficulties such as defaults on loans or similar agreements, arrearages in dividends, denial of trade credit from suppliers, a need to restructure debt to avoid default, noncompliance with statutory capital requirements and a need to seek new sources or methods of financing or to dispose of substantial assets.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has indicated that the prohibition on considering the potential mitigating effects of any management plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date that the financial statements are issued in its evaluation of whether substantial doubt is raised means that management cannot consider plans that it has a history of successfully implementing (such as a history of successfully obtaining financing). As a result, an entity that does not have sufficient liquidity from operations or capacity in existing credit facilities to repay its obligations as they become due within one year after the financial statements are issued must supply disclosures as set forth below.

Since its inception the Company has generated net losses and experienced negative cash flows from operations. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $21,223,501 and cash of $6,106,778 as of December 31, 2017. The Company has significant debt obligations maturing in the twelve-month period subsequent to the date its financial statements are issued, or in the Company’s case April 19, 2019. So notwithstanding the fact that management believes that it is probable that its plans to mitigate these conditions will be effectively implemented and that it is probable that its plans will mitigate the relevant conditions and events on or before April 19, 2019 as further discussed below, the Company is require to disclose in compliance with ASC 205-40 that the aforementioned combination of those financial and operating factors discussed above raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management’s plans to address these concerns, in part, by increasing the amount of revenue generated by our existing revenue sources. This is achieved by increasing our assets under management, completing additional construction related activities, earning development fees, earning brokerage fees, and continuing our program of advantageously selling our single-family assets. In addition, management is continuing to improve and develop new sources of revenue such as the fees we generate from raising capital into our managed Funds, and additional sales and marketing reimbursements.

Management additionally expects to materially grow revenues from the assets and investments held by the Company. As purchasing opportunistic real estate assets is a primary function of the Company, the first 12 – 24 months of most investments are considered to be a rehabilitation, construction, or stabilization period. Thereafter, management seeks to produce additional revenues from each asset purchased through increased occupancy, increased rents, sale of the assets, or a combination of these strategies. As such, management generally expects investments in real estate occurring in late 2016 – 2017 to produce additional revenue gains in 2018 with optimized revenue and net income expected in 2019. There can be no assurance as to these results or expectations.

Historically, as the Company has sought to grow and scale its business, management has funded working capital through a combination of sale of Company stock and short-term borrowings. Management has active capital and debt raising programs designed to lower the Company’s cost of capital. These programs include, not only executing agreements with new lenders but also, the option to extend the terms of the existing debt or to offer conversions of our debt into Caliber equity. There can be no assurance as to these results or expectations.

Management believes that these actions will enable the Company to continue as a going concern within one year after the date its financial statements were issued, or in the Company’s case April 19, 2019. Management believes that the success of these plans is probable, and as a result, believes that the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern are mitigated.

Equity Incentive Plan

2017 Incentive Stock Plan

We have adopted a 2017 Omnibus Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”). An aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock is reserved for issuance and available for awards under the Plan, including incentive stock options granted under the Plan. The Plan administrator may grant awards to any employee, director, consultant or other person providing services to us or our affiliates. As of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2018, options representing zero and 3,031,096 shares have been made under the Plan, respectively.

The Plan shall be initially administered by the Board. The Plan administrator has the authority to determine, within the limits of the express provisions of the Plan, the individuals to whom awards will be granted, the nature, amount and terms of such awards and the objectives and conditions for earning such awards. The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, provided that no such action may be taken that adversely affects any rights or obligations with respect to any awards previously made under the Plan without the consent of the recipient. No awards may be made under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of its effective date.

Awards under the Plan may include incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock Units, performance share or Unit awards, other stock-based awards and cash-based incentive awards.

Stock Options. The Plan administrator may grant to a participant options to purchase our common stock that qualify as incentive stock options for purposes of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (“incentive stock options”), options that do not qualify as incentive stock options (“non-qualified stock options”) or a combination thereof. The terms and conditions of stock option grants, including the quantity, price, vesting periods, and other conditions on exercise will be determined by the Plan administrator. The exercise price for stock options will be determined by the Plan administrator in its discretion, but non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one share of our company’s common stock on the date when the stock option is granted. Additionally, in the case of incentive stock options granted to a holder of more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock on the date of grant, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date the stock option is granted. Stock options must be exercised within a period fixed by the Plan administrator that may not exceed ten years from the date of grant, except that in the case of incentive stock options granted to a holder of more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock on the date of grant, the exercise period may not exceed five years. At the Plan administrator’s discretion, payment for shares of common stock on the exercise of stock options may be made in cash, shares of our common stock held by the participant or in any other form of consideration acceptable to the Plan administrator (including one or more forms of “cashless” or “net” exercise).

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Plan administrator may grant to a participant an award of SARs, which entitles the participant to receive, upon its exercise, a payment equal to (i) the excess of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the exercise date over the SAR exercise price, times (ii) the number of shares of common stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised. The exercise price for a

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SAR will be determined by the Plan administrator in its discretion; provided, however, that in no event shall the exercise price be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

Restricted Shares and Restricted Units. The Plan administrator may award to a participant shares of common stock subject to specified restrictions (“restricted shares”). Restricted shares are subject to forfeiture if the participant does not meet certain conditions such as continued employment over a specified forfeiture period and/or the attainment of specified performance targets over the forfeiture period. The Plan administrator also may award to a participant Units representing the right to receive shares of common stock in the future subject to the achievement of one or more goals relating to the completion of service by the participant and/or the achievement of performance or other objectives (“restricted Units”). The terms and conditions of restricted share and restricted Unit awards are determined by the Plan administrator.

Performance Awards. The Plan administrator may grant performance awards to participants under such terms and conditions as the Plan administrator deems appropriate. A performance award entitles a participant to receive a payment from us, the amount of which is based upon the attainment of predetermined performance targets over a specified award period. Performance awards may be paid in cash, shares of common stock or a combination thereof, as determined by the Plan administrator.

Other Stock-Based Awards. The Plan administrator may grant equity-based or equity-related awards, referred to as “other stock-based awards,” other than options, SARs, restricted shares, restricted Units, or performance awards. The terms and conditions of each other stock-based award will be determined by the Plan administrator. Payment under any other stock-based awards will be made in common stock or cash, as determined by the Plan administrator.

Cash-Based Awards. The Plan administrator may grant cash-based incentive compensation awards, which would include performance-based annual cash incentive compensation to be paid to covered employees subject to Section 162(m) of the Code. The terms and conditions of each cash-based award will be determined by the Plan administrator.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Because our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights, our stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock outstanding will be able to elect all of our directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that all stockholder actions must be affected at a duly called meeting of stockholders and not by written consent. A special meeting of stockholders may be called by holders of a majority of our common stock, voting together as a single class, or by the majority of our whole board of directors, or our chief executive officer.

The foregoing provisions will make it more difficult for our existing stockholders to replace our board of directors as well as for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our board of directors. Since our board of directors has the power to retain and discharge our officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change our control.

These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our board of directors and its policies and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened acquisition of us. These provisions are also designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in our control or management.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law

We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:

•

before such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

•

upon closing of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder)

TABLE OF CONTENTS

those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

•

on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 662∕3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

In general, Section 203 defines business combination to include the following:

•

any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

•

any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

•

subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;

•

any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

•

the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loss, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits by or through the corporation.

In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The aggregate initial offering price of Caliber Common Stock will not exceed $50,000,000 in any 12-month period. We expect to offer Common Stock in this offering until the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount has been sold; (ii) , 2019, the date that is twelve months from the date that this offering is qualified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission) or (iii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion, which may occur at any time. The offering is being conducted on a best-efforts basis without any minimum aggregate investment target. The Company may undertake one or more closings on a rolling basis. After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be available to the Company.

We are offering the shares hereunder on a “best efforts” basis. Our officers and directors may participate in the sales process for the offering. We will not pay any commission or remuneration to our Company’s directors or officers for any sales efforts they may make. In directly sourcing investors, our officers and directors will rely on Rule 3a4-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, “Associated Persons of an Issuer Deemed not to be Brokers.” The applicable portions of the rule state that associated persons of an issuer, which include natural persons who are officers, directors, partners or employees of the issuer and its affiliates, shall not be deemed brokers if such persons a) perform substantial duties at the end of the offering for the issuer; b) are not broker-dealers; and c) do not participate in selling securities more than once every 12 months, except for any of the following activities: i) preparing written communication, but no oral solicitation; or ii) responding to inquiries provided that the content is contained in the applicable registration statement; or iii) performing clerical work in effecting any transaction.

There is no public market for the shares of Caliber Common Stock. Further to the Placement Agency Agreement, we will covenant to use our best efforts to cause our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange within 12 months of the completion of this offering. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such listing, or if we do obtain it, that a market will ever develop.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Under Rule 251 of Regulation A, non-accredited, non-natural investors are subject to the investment limitation and may only invest funds which do not exceed 10% of the greater of the purchaser’s revenue or net assets (as of the purchaser’s most recent fiscal year end). A non-accredited, natural person may only invest funds which do not exceed 10% of the greater of the purchaser’s annual income or net worth (please see below on how to calculate your net worth).

NOTE: For the purposes of calculating your net worth, or Net Worth, it is defined as the difference between total assets and total liabilities. This calculation must exclude the value of your primary residence and may exclude any indebtedness secured by your primary residence (up to an amount equal to the value of your primary residence). In the case of fiduciary accounts, net worth and/or income suitability requirements may be satisfied by the beneficiary of the account or by the fiduciary, if the fiduciary directly or indirectly provides funds for the purchase of the shares.

In order to purchase shares and prior to the acceptance of any funds from an investor, an investor will be required to represent, to our Company’s satisfaction, that he is either an accredited investor or is in compliance with the 10% of net worth or annual income limitation on investment in this offering.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

The shares may be issued to investors in book-entry only format and may be represented by global certificates deposited with a nominee holder or (ii) reflected on the books of the transfer agent. We anticipate that such nominee holder will be the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, or its nominee Cede & Co. The shares may also be direct registered under the name of the stockholder.

So long as nominees as described above are the registered owners of the certificates representing the shares, such nominees will be considered the sole owners and holders of the shares for all purposes of the shares, with respect to the shares. Beneficial Owners of shares will not be entitled to have certificates representing the same registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the shares in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders under the Indenture, including for purposes of receiving any reports delivered by us or the trustee pursuant to the Indenture, or by us. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in shares registered to DTC or its nominee must rely on either the procedures of DTC or its nominee in order to exercise any rights of a stockholder.

The Depository Trust Company

We have obtained the information in this section concerning DTC and its book-entry systems and procedures from sources that we believe to be reliable. The description of the clearing system in this section reflects our understanding of the rules and procedures of DTC as they are currently in effect. DTC could change its rules and procedures at any time.

DTC will act as securities depositary for the shares registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co. DTC is:

•

a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law;

•

a “banking organization” under the New York Banking Law;

•

a member of the Federal Reserve System;

•

a “clearing corporation” under the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and

•

a “clearing agency” registered under the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act.

DTC holds securities that its direct participants deposit with DTC. DTC facilitates the settlement among direct participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in direct participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates.

Direct participants of DTC include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its direct participants. Indirect participants of DTC, such as securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, can also access the DTC system if they maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Purchases of shares under DTC’s system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the shares on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each beneficial owner is in turn to be recorded on the records of direct participants and indirect participants. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase, but beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct participants or indirect participants through which such beneficial owners entered into the transaction. Transfers of shares are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

An investment in us by an employee benefit plan is subject to additional considerations. This is because investments by employee benefit plans are subject to ERISA’s fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction provisions and to restrictions imposed by Code Section 4975. The term “employee benefit plan” includes without limitation qualified pension, profit-sharing and stock bonus plans, Keogh plans, simplified employee pension plans and tax deferred annuities or IRAs established or maintained by an employer or employee organization. Among other things, consideration should be given to:

•

whether the investment is prudent under Section 404(a)(1)(B) of ERISA;

•

whether in making the investment, the investing plan will satisfy the diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA; and

•

whether the investment will result in recognition of unrelated business taxable income by the plan and, if so, the potential after-tax investment returns.

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or ERISA, is a broad statutory framework that governs most U.S. retirement and other U.S. employee benefit plans. ERISA and the rules and regulations of the Department of Labor, or the DOL, under ERISA contain provisions that should be considered by fiduciaries of employee benefit plans subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, or ERISA Plans, and their legal advisors. The person having investment discretion concerning assets of an employee benefit plan is generally referred to as a “fiduciary”. Such person should determine whether an investment in us is authorized by the applicable governing plan instrument and whether it is a proper investment for the plan.

ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975 prohibit employee benefit plans from engaging in specified transactions involving “plan assets” with parties that are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified persons” under the Code with respect to the plan.

In addition to considering whether the purchase of shares is a prohibited transaction, a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan should consider whether the plan will, by investing in us, be deemed to own an undivided interest in our assets, with the result that our operations would be subject to the regulatory restrictions of ERISA, including its prohibited transaction rules, as well as the prohibited transaction rules of the Code.

The Department of Labor regulations provide guidance concerning whether assets of an entity in which employee benefit plans acquire equity interests would be deemed “plan assets” under certain circumstances. Under these regulations, an entity’s assets would not be considered to be “plan assets” if, among other things:

(1)

equity interests acquired by employee benefit plans are publicly offered securities — for example, the equity interests are widely held by 100 or more investors independent of the issuer and each other, freely transferable and registered under some provisions of the federal securities laws;

(2)

the entity is an “operating company” — for example, it is primarily engaged in the production or sale of a product or service other than the investment of capital either directly or through a majority-owned subsidiary or subsidiaries; or

(3)

there is no significant investment by benefit plan investors, which is defined to mean that less than 25% of the value of each class of equity interest is held by the employee benefit plans referred to above.

We do not intend to limit investment by benefit plan investors in us because we believe that we qualify as an “operating company”. If the Department of Labor were to ever take the position that we are not an operating company and we had significant investment by benefit plans, then we may become subject to the regulatory restrictions of ERISA which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of Caliber Common Stock.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Plan fiduciaries contemplating a purchase of shares offered hereunder are highly encouraged to consult with their own counsel regarding the consequences under ERISA and the Code in light of the serious penalties imposed on persons who engage in prohibited transactions or other violations.

ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS ON BEHALF OF PLANS IS IN NO RESPECT A REPRESENTATION BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS OR ANY OTHER PARTY RELATED TO US THAT THIS INVESTMENT MEETS THE RELEVANT LEGAL REQUIREMENTS REGARDING INVESTMENTS BY ANY PARTICULAR PLAN OR THAT AN INVESTMENT WITH US IS APPROPRIATE FOR ANY PARTICULAR TYPE OF PLAN. THE PERSON WITH INVESTMENT DISCRETION SHOULD CONSULT THEIR ATTORNEY AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS AS TO THE APPROPRIATENESS OF AN INVESTMENT IN US BASED ON CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE PARTICULAR PLAN.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT CONSIDERATIONS

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. A person will generally be deemed to be an “investment company” for purposes of the Investment Company Act if, absent an available exception or exemption, it (i) 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 (ii) 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.

We rely on an exclusion from the definition of investment company provided by either Section 3(c)(5)(C) or Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act. Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act, as interpreted by SEC staff, that requires us to invest at least 55% of our assets in “mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate,” or Qualifying Real Estate Assets, and at least 80% of our assets in Qualifying Real Estate Assets plus real estate-related assets.

We will continue to invest in and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate investments. We expect to use a significant majority of the net proceeds from this offering to invest and hold at least 55% of our total assets in commercial real estate loans (including senior mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine debt and participations (also referred to as B-Notes) that meet certain criteria outlined by the staff of the SEC), each of which are Qualifying Real Estate Assets. In addition, we hold at least 80% of our total assets in a combination of Qualifying Real Estate Assets and real estate-related assets. These real estate-related assets may include assets such as equity interests in companies that own commercial real estate and preferred equity in commercial real estate debt securities such as CMBSs and CDOs. We will monitor our holdings under the 55% test and the 80% test in an effort to comply with Section 3(c)(5)(C) and related guidance.

Based on these holdings, we believe that we are not considered an investment company for purposes of Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act. Consequently, we expect to continue to conduct our operations such that we will not be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act excludes from the definition of “investment company” any company primarily engaged, directly or through majority-owned subsidiaries, in a business, among others, described in Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act. The SEC has indicated that Section 3(c)(6) requires a company to hold at least 55% of its assets in, and derive 55% of its income from, a Section 3(c)(5)(C) business. The staff of the SEC has issued little additional interpretive guidance with respect to Section 3(c)(6).

To the extent we hold our real estate investments through subsidiaries, we rely on Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act rather than Section 3(c)(5)(C). In such a case, more than 55% of our assets are held in, and more than 55% of our income are derived from, a combination of our interests in our majority-owned subsidiaries and Qualifying Real Estate Assets. Our majority-owned subsidiaries rely on Section 3(c)(5)(C), described above. Based on these holdings, we believe that we are not considered an investment company for purposes of Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act. Consequently, we expect we will continue to conduct our operations such that we would not be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

If the staff of the SEC were to disagree with our approach to our compliance with Section 3(c)(6) and obtained a favorable ruling to that effect that we cannot or decide not to appeal, we would need to adjust our investment strategy. Any such adjustment in our strategy could have a material adverse effect on us.

Under the Investment Company Act, a majority-owned subsidiary of a person is defined as a company 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of which are owned by such person, or by another company which is a majority-owned subsidiary of such person. For purposes of Section 3(c)(6), we intend to treat companies in which we own at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities as majority-owned subsidiaries. Currently we and our wholly owned subsidiary Caliber Companies, LLC, own 50% or more of subsidiaries that include: Caliber Services, LLC, Caliber Development, LLC, Caliber Auction Homes, LLC (which also includes wholly owned single purpose real estate holding companies),

The determination of whether an entity is a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company is made by us. We have not asked SEC staff for concurrence with this analysis, and it is possible that SEC staff could disagree with any of our determinations. If SEC staff were to disagree with our treatment of one or more companies as majority-owned subsidiaries, we would need to adjust our investment strategy. Any such adjustment in our strategy could have a material adverse effect on us.

The assets we and our subsidiaries may acquire are limited by the provisions of the Investment Company Act, the rules and regulations promulgated under the Investment Company Act, and interpretative guidance from the SEC and its staff. These limitations may adversely affect our performance. In addition, to the extent SEC staff provides different or more specific guidance regarding any of the matters bearing upon such exclusions, we may be required to adjust our strategy accordingly. Any additional guidance from the SEC or its staff could provide additional flexibility to us, or it could further inhibit our ability to pursue the strategies we have chosen. 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. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Company — 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”.

REPORTS

We will furnish the following reports, statements, and tax information to each stockholder:

Reporting Requirements under Tier II of Regulation A. Following this Tier II, Regulation A offering, we will be required to comply with certain ongoing disclosure requirements under Rule 257 of Regulation A. We will be required to file: (i) an annual report with the SEC on Form 1-K; (ii) a semi-annual report with the SEC on Form 1-SA; (iii) current reports with the SEC on Form 1-U; and (iv) a notice under cover of Form 1-Z. The necessity to file current reports will be triggered by certain corporate events, similar to the ongoing reporting obligation faced by issuers under the Exchange Act, however the requirement to file a Form 1-U is expected to be triggered by significantly fewer corporate events than that of the Form 8-K. Parts I & II of Form 1-Z will be filed by us if and when we decide to and are no longer obligated to file and provide annual reports pursuant to the requirements of Regulation A.

Annual Reports. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of our fiscal year, ending December 31, our board of directors will cause to be mailed or made available, by any reasonable means, to each Stockholder as of a date selected by the board of directors, an annual report containing financial statements of the Company for such fiscal year, presented in accordance with GAAP, including a balance sheet and statements of operations, company equity and cash flows, with such statements having been audited by an accountant selected by the board of directors. The board of directors shall be deemed to have made a report available to each Stockholder as required if it has either (i) filed such report with the SEC via its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval, or EDGAR, system and such report is publicly available on such system or (ii) made such report available on any website maintained by the Company and available for viewing by the Stockholders.

Tax Information. On or before January 31st of the year immediately following our fiscal year, which is currently January 1st through December 31st, we will send to each Stockholder such tax information as shall be reasonably required for federal and state income tax reporting purposes.

Stock Certificates. We do not anticipate issuing stock certificates representing shares purchased in this offering to the Common Stockholders. However, we are permitted to issue stock certificates and may do so at the request of our transfer agent. The number of shares held by each Common Stockholder, will be maintained by us or our transfer agent in our company register.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
CaliberCos, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CaliberCos, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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, an audit 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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

CaliberCos, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, “Caliber”, “we”, “our”, and “us”), is an asset manager of private equity real estate funds and provider of a full suite of traditional real estate services. CaliberCos, Inc. was formed in November 2014, and originally began as Caliber Companies, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, which commenced operations in January 2009. The real estate asset management business includes the management of private equity real estate funds and direct real estate investments in residential, commercial, and hospitality assets. We also provide capital raising services to the private equity real estate funds we manage. The Company provides real estate services for the assets it manages, as well as for third party customers, including construction, development, real estate brokerage, and property management services. In addition to providing asset management and real estate services, the Company also owns a portfolio of single-family homes which are held for rental and/or sale. Our business is organized into eight reportable segments, which we analyze in two categories; real estate services (Fund/Asset Management, Construction & Development, Property Management, Real Estate Brokerage) and real estate operations (Hospitality, Residential, Commercial, and Diversified), and as of December 31, 2017, we had operations in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Alaska.

In general, the private equity real estate funds Caliber manages are organized as operating partnerships, in which multiple unrelated passive investors own partnership interest and Caliber is designated as the manager and/or general partner of the partnership. Depending on the legal structure and arrangements between Caliber and the funds, we may or may not consolidate the partnerships for financial reporting purposes. For funds in which Caliber is determined to be the controlling party for financial reporting purposes, the fund is consolidated and the passive investors’ ownership is presented as noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. For funds in which Caliber 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).

Going Concern

Since its inception the Company has generated net losses and experienced negative cash flows from operations. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $21,223,501 and cash of $6,106,778 as of December 31, 2017. Historically, as the Company has sought to grow and scale its business, management has funded working capital through a combination of sale of Company stock and short-term borrowings. The Company has significant debt obligations maturing in the twelve-month period subsequent to the date these financial statements are issued. The combination of these factors raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 1 — Organization and Basis of Presentation (continued)

management generally expects investments in real estate occurring in late 2016 – 2017 to produce additional revenue gains in 2018 with optimized revenue and net income expected in 2019. There can be no assurance as to these results or expectations.

Management also has active capital and debt raising programs design to lower the Company’s cost of capital. These programs include, not only executing agreements with new lenders but also, the option to extend the terms of the existing debt or to offer conversions of our debt into Caliber equity. There can be no assurance as to these results or expectations.

Management believes that these actions will enable the Company to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. Management believes that the success of these plans is probable, and as a result, believes that the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern are mitigated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CaliberCos, Inc., its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and the consolidated entities that are considered to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”), of which the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our consolidated subsidiaries, which are comprised of VIEs in which we are the primary beneficiary and voting interest entities (“VOEs”), in which we determined we have a controlling financial interest, under the “Consolidations” Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) (Topic 810). 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.

Variable Interest Entities

We determine if an entity is a VIE based on several factors, including whether the equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We make judgments regarding which types of activities most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance first on a qualitative analysis, then a quantitative analysis, if necessary.

We analyze any investments in VIEs to determine if we are 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 (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) 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 judgement.

We consolidate any VIE for which we are the primary beneficiary and disclose significant VIEs of which we are not the primary beneficiary, as well as disclose our maximum exposure to loss related to the VIEs that are not consolidated (see Note 4).

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Voting Interest Entities

For VOEs, we consolidate the entity if we have a controlling financial interest in the entity. We have a controlling financial interest in a VOE if (1) for legal entities other than partnerships, we own a majority voting interest in the VOE or, for limited partnerships and similar entities, we own a majority of the entity’s kick-out rights through voting limited partnership interests and (2) non-controlling shareholders or partners do not hold substantive participating rights, and no other conditions exist that would indicate that we do not control the entity.

Use of Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company makes significant estimates regarding the useful lives of depreciable assets, real estate and other investment impairment, the allocation of purchase price for business combinations and asset acquisitions, income taxes, and the consolidation of equity investments and VIEs.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

Our investments in unconsolidated entities in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. We eliminate transactions with such equity method subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership in such entities. Accordingly, our share of the earnings or loss from these entities, in which our investment is accounted for under the equity method basis, is included in consolidated net income or loss. All other investments held on a long-term basis are valued at cost less any impairments. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the balance of our investments in unconsolidated entities was $174,895 and $238,143, respectively, which is included in prepaid and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In certain situations, the Company has invested only a nominal amount of cash, or no cash at all, into a venture. However, as the manager of the venture, we are entitled to 35 – 25% of the residual cash flow (“carried interest”) produced by the venture after the payment of any priority returns.

Under both the equity and cost method, impairment losses are recognized upon evidence of other-than-temporary losses of value. When evaluating investments that are not actively traded on a public market for impairment, we generally use a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of our investments and/or look to comparable activities in the marketplace. Management’s judgment is required in developing the assumptions for the discounted cash flow approach. These assumptions include net asset values, internal rates of return, discount and capitalization rates, interest rates and financing terms, rental rates, timing of leasing activity, estimates of lease terms and related concessions, and other factors. When determining if impairment is other-than-temporary, we also look to the length of time and the extent to which fair value has been less than cost as well as the financial condition and near-term prospects of each investment. None of our recorded investments were considered to be impaired at December 31, 2017 or 2016.

Acquisition of Real Estate Assets

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

F-10

CALIBERCOS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

all of 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 acquisitions meet the single or similar asset threshold, due to the fact that substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is attributable to the real estate assets acquired.

Business Combinations

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. We estimate 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. We 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 our experience in leasing similar communities and third-party valuations, depending upon the circumstances of the acquisition.

The intangible assets or liabilities related to in-place leases can exist as either the lessee or the lessor in the leasing arrangement and are comprised of: (a) the value of the above- and below-market leases in-place, measured over the period, including estimated lease renewals for below-market leases, that the leases are expected to remain in effect; (b) the estimated unamortized portion of avoided leasing commissions and other costs that ordinarily would be incurred to originate the in-place leases; and (c) the value associated with vacant properties during the absorption period (estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on market demand and stabilized occupancy levels at the time of acquisition).

The values of the above- and below-market leases in which we are the lessor are amortized to rental revenue over the expected remaining terms of the associated leases, which include reasonably assured renewal periods. The values of the above- and below-market leases in which we are the lessee are amortized to lease expense (as a reduction of lease expense) over the remaining terms of the associated leases, which include reasonably assured renewal periods.

Asset Acquisitions

If a transaction is determined to be an acquisition of an asset, the purchase price is allocated to the acquired assets, including any intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values, and transaction costs are capitalized and allocated to the acquired assets based on their fair values as well. We 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. We 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 our experience in leasing similar communities and fair value estimates provided by third party valuation specialists, depending upon the circumstances of the acquisition.

with vacant properties during the absorption period (estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on market demand and stabilized occupancy levels at the time of acquisition).

The values of the above- and below-market leases in which we are the lessor are amortized to rental revenue over the expected remaining terms of the associated leases, which include reasonably assured renewal periods. The values of the above- and below-market leases in which we are the lessee are amortized to lease expense over the remaining terms of the associated leases, which include reasonably assured renewal periods.

Cost Capitalization and Depreciation

We capitalize costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our construction and development 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. We also capitalize interest, property taxes and insurance during periods in which redevelopment, development and construction projects are in progress. We commence capitalization of costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital addition activities, 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. We 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. We charge the cost of ordinary repairs, maintenance and resident turnover 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 real estate assets are as follows:

	Building and building improvements			15 – 40 years
	Furniture, fixtures, and equipment			3 – 7 years

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, depreciation expense was $5,564,129, and $3,933,485, 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, we make an assessment of its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to our estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset, excluding interest charges. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded impairment losses of $460,906 and $348,286, respectively, related to certain single-family homes. The estimated fair value (level 3) of the single-family homes, which was based on a combination of internal valuations using available market data and third-party valuations, was determined to be less than the carrying value at the respective measurement date.

Real Estate Assets Held for Sale

An asset or asset group is classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met including management’s approval for sale, the availability of the asset or asset group to be sold in its present condition, and the likelihood of the sale occurring within the next twelve months is probable. At such time,

F-12

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

if the asset was being depreciated, depreciation is no longer recognized. Assets held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying value, or estimated net realizable value, less costs to sell. The estimates used in the determination of the net realizable value of real estate held for sale is based on known factors to the Company at the time such estimates are made and management’s expectations of future operations and economic conditions. Should the estimate or expectations used in determining net realizable value deteriorate in the future, the Company may be required to recognize impairment charges or write-offs related to these real estate assets held for sale. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, we had $1,424,335 and $5,193,187 of assets classified as held for sale which was comprised of single-family homes actively being marketed for sale which were expected to be sold within the next 12 months.

Advance Key Money

We have entered into certain arrangements in which hotel franchisors or their affiliates have provided the Company with financing as part of a franchise arrangement. The Company has been advanced funds upon entering into a franchise agreement, and is not required to repay the funds as long as the franchise agreement is not terminated prior to its scheduled maturity. The potential amount of funds that would be required to be repaid decreases with the passage of time. The Company records a liability equal to the initial amount of funds received, which is amortized over the term of the franchise agreement and recorded as a reduction of franchise fee expense, which is included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

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 federally insured levels. 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 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 Company are funded from the reserve accounts. Restricted cash also includes cash held in escrow accounts by mortgage companies on behalf of the Company for payment of property taxes, insurance, and interest.

Cash Held for Others

We manage cash in our role as an agent for certain of our property management clients. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, we had cash held for others in the amount of $630,885 and $524,290, respectively. These amounts are not included in the balances on our consolidated balance sheets.

Concentration of Credit Risk

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

•

diversifying our investments in real estate assets across multiple asset types, including office, hospitality, single-family, multi-family, and self-storage properties;

F-13

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CALIBERCOS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

•

diversifying our investments in real estate assets across multiple geographic locations including different markets and sub-markets in Arizona, Alaska, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah; diversifying our investments in real estate assets across assets at differing points of stabilization, and in varying states of cash flow optimization; and

•

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.

Mezzanine Equity

The Company may issue one or more series of preferred stock. Preferred stock, which is subject to mandatory redemption by the Company, is presented as temporary, or mezzanine, equity, and presented separate from permanent equity on the accompanying consolidated balances sheets. The Company’s Series A preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable at a fixed price on a fixed or determinable date, and the conditions for redemption are not within the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Series A preferred stock is presented as mezzanine equity on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Mezzanine equity is initially recorded at fair value on the issuance date. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the carrying amount of the instrument is accreted up over time using the effective-interest method, such that the carrying value equals the redemption value on the redemption date.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Real Estate Partnerships

We report the unaffiliated partners’ interests in the net assets of our consolidated real estate partnerships as noncontrolling interests within consolidated stockholders’ equity. Noncontrolling interests consist primarily of equity interests held by limited partners in consolidated real estate partnerships. We generally attribute to noncontrolling interests their share of income or loss of the consolidated partnerships based on their proportionate interest in the results of operations of the partnerships, including their 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, we ordinarily control 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.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, advertising costs totaled $426,715 and $504,179, respectively.

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. Amounts amortized are reported as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. U.S. GAAP requires that the effective interest method be used to recognize amortization; however, the effect of using the straight-line method is not materially different from the results that would have been obtained under the effective interest method. Capitalized deferred financings costs, net of

accumulated amortization, are offset against and included in notes payable on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, amortization and write-offs of deferred financing costs totaled $2,407,152 and $839,169, respectively.

Inventory

The Company holds certain items in inventory in connection with its hotel operations. The inventory consists of food, beverage products and hotel gift shop items, which are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined on a first-in, first-out basis. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s inventory balance was $178,239 and $177,289, respectively, which is included in prepaid and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition

Rental Income

Rental income includes the revenues generated primarily by the rental operations of the residential (multi-family and single-family) properties owned and/or managed by the Company. The Company’s revenues generated by residential properties, which primarily consist of rental income and include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease, are reported on a straight-line basis over the initial noncancelable term of the lease, net of any concessions, and are recognized when earned and collectability is reasonably assured. These revenues are recorded net of any sales and occupancy taxes collected from tenants.

Hospitality

Hospitality revenues are generated by the Company’s hotel properties, and are comprised of charges for room rentals, food and beverage sales, and other hotel operating activities. These revenues are recorded net of any sales and occupancy taxes collected from guests. Revenues are recognized as earned, which is defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel property’s services, and the point of sale for food and beverage sales. To the extent guests or groups pre-pay for rooms or services to be provided by the hotel the amounts are recorded as deferred revenue, and are recognized as the room night occurs or service is provided.

Real Estate Sales

Real estate sales are comprised of sales proceeds from the sale of real estate assets. Revenue from the sale of real estate is recognized when title is transferred, all consideration is exchanged, and all conditions precedent to closing are performed.

Construction and Development

The Company provides construction related services to affiliates and third parties, which include the build-out of tenant space, the renovation of hospitality, residential, and commercial real estate, and general real estate repair and maintenance services. In addition, the Company provides development services for ground-up development and repositioning of real estate assets.

Revenues related to cost-plus contracts are recognized on the basis of costs incurred during the period plus fees earned. Revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers incurred costs to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is as least reasonably possible that the estimates used could change within the near term.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The asset, “Costs in excess of billings” included in prepaid and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “Billings in excess of costs” included in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets represents billings in excess of revenues recognized. In addition, the Company generates revenue from construction and development services which is recognized when the services are rendered.

Fund Management

Fund management revenue includes fees earned for managing private equity real estate funds. We generally earn initial, one-time fees at the inception of a fund, and separate on-going, annual asset management fees. Asset management fees are generally based on 1.5% of capital contributed into a particular fund and reimbursement for costs incurred on behalf of a fund, which includes an allocation of overhead costs, and are recalculated annually. Fund management revenue also includes fees earned on certain real estate transactions and fees based on the performance of certain funds. The fees included in fund management revenue are charged and recognized in the period the related services are provided.

Property Management

Property management revenue includes fees charged for property management services. Revenues are generally based upon percentages of the rental revenue or base rent generated by the properties being managed. These fees are recognized when earned under the provisions of the related management agreements. Property management revenue also includes fees charged to property management customers for leasing commissions. These fees are generally a flat fee or based on the amount of the new lease executed and are charged at the time a tenant enters into a lease agreement for the customer’s property. These fees are recognized when earned under the provisions of the related management agreements, and generally at the time the lease is executed.

Our clients reimburse us for certain expenses incurred on their behalf. Our treatment of these reimbursements is based upon the terms of the underlying contract. We use certain indicators as to whether we record the reimbursements on a gross versus net basis, such as whether we are the primary obligor on the contracts, whether the contract is based on a fixed fee, credit risk, and our discretion in making vendor selections and establishing prices.

In certain instances, we have determined we are acting as the principal in the transaction and, accordingly, report these reimbursements as revenue on a gross basis with the total costs reflected in operating expenses. Reimbursement revenue is recognized when the underlying reimbursable costs are incurred.

Brokerage

We earn real estate brokerage commission revenue by acting as a broker for residential and commercial real estate owners and investors seeking to buy and/or sell properties, including investment properties, as well as primary residences. Revenues from real estate brokerage commissions are typically recognized at the close of escrow or transfer of title.

In certain instances, we have determined we are acting as the principal in the brokerage transaction and, accordingly, report these commissions as revenue on a gross basis with the total costs reflected in brokerage expenses. When we determine we are not acting as the principal in the transaction and are acting as an agent, we report the transaction on a net basis, presenting the brokerage commission revenue net of any related brokerage commission expenses.

Capital Raise Fees

We enter into fixed fee arrangements with our affiliates to provide certain services associated with marketing, soliciting, and selling member interests of the affiliated private equity real estate funds. All capital raise fee revenues are charged to our affiliates and recognized in the period the related services are provided.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable primarily consists of amounts due from guests or groups for hotel rooms and services provided by the hotel properties. Accounts receivable also include due, but unpaid, rental payments. The Company continually reviews receivables and determines collectability by taking into consideration the history of past write-offs, collections, current credit conditions, tenant payment history, the financial condition of the tenants, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. In the event that 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 other expenses, net on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 and $19,590, respectively.

Interest Rate Caps

The Company utilizes interest rate caps, derivative financial instruments, to reduce interest rate risk. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities require the Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those instruments are reported in earnings or other comprehensive income (loss) depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The accounting for gains and losses associated with changes in the fair value of the derivative and the effect on the financial statements will depend on its hedge designation and whether the hedge is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the fair value of cash flows of the asset or liability hedged. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s interest rate caps were estimated to have fair values (level 3) equal to zero, as they were ineffective hedges (see Note 5).

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to CaliberCos, Inc. 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 warrants. 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.

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 as the Company, significant stockholders and members of their immediate families, executive management and members of their immediate families, and other parties that can significantly influence the management and operating policies of the Company.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with FASB 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 of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

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.

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. See Note 9 for more information regarding unrecognized income tax benefits.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We disclose the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”. We estimate the fair value of our financial instruments using available market information and established valuation methodologies. The estimates of fair value 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.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s fair value measurement 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:

Level 1 inputs — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs — inputs other than 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.

Level 3 inputs — 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).

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Share-based payments

The Company has granted stock to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions as compensation for services provided. For stock grants to non-employees, the fair value of the share-based payment is determined based upon the measurement date fair value. The measurement date may be either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. The fair value of the Company’s common stock grants is estimated using market factors, such as the current private market selling price of the Company’s common stock at the measurement date, depending on the terms of each arrangement. Non-employee share-based payment charges are recognized based on the terms of each arrangement, and share-based payment charges are generally recognized as the related service is provided.

Segment Information

The Company’s operations are organized into eight reportable segments for management and financial reporting purposes, which are divided into two categories; real estate services (Corporate & Fund/Asset Management, Construction & Development, Property Management, Real Estate Brokerage) and real estate operations (Hospitality, Residential, Commercial, and Diversified). In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, in determining the most appropriate reportable segments, we considered the information our chief operating decision maker assesses when evaluating the operating performance of our assets, based on our share of net operating income (loss), including similar economic and other characteristics, and the nature of operating or revenue producing activity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases, which will require that a lessee recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months, with the result being the recognition of a right of use asset and a lease liability and the disclosure of key information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases (i.e., capital leases under current U.S. GAAP) and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases will be substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under current U.S. GAAP. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective approach is required for existing leases that have not expired upon adoption. We are currently evaluating the potential impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which is intended to address diversity in practice related to how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues as well as application of the predominance principle (dependence on predominant source or use of receipt or payment) and are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. ASU 2016-15 requires retrospective adoption unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case it is to be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. We do not believe the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which provides guidance on the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. In accordance with ASU 2016-18, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents

should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cash flows. The amendments of ASU 2016-18 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the adoption of ASU 2016-18 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). ASU 2017-03 requires registrants to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. The SEC staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies that the registrant expects to apply, if determined, and a comparison to the registrant’s current accounting policies. In addition, a registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. ASU 2017-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue from Contracts with Customers which amended FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and requires revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract.

The FASB has also issued the following amendments to ASU 2014-09 to provide clarification on the guidance:

•

ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Deferral of the Effective Date

•

ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Principal versus Agent (Reporting Revenue Gross vs Net)

•

ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing

•

ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients

The adoption of Topic 606 is required for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period, and is required for all other entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt the new standards. We are currently evaluating the potential impacts the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and its related amendments will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Dispositions

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company sold 35 single-family homes for $7,877,470, resulting in a gain of $946,532. The Company also sold a multi-family property located in Phoenix, Arizona (“Uptown Square Apartments” or “Uptown”) in 2017, for $3,015,000, resulting in a gain of $1,378,000. Caliber has a 36.4% equity share in the consolidated entity which sold Uptown and is entitled to its proportionate share of the net sale proceeds; however, at December 31, 2017, the proceeds remained in escrow at our discretion, in anticipation of applying to proceeds to a new real estate acquisition, and are included in restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company sold six single-family homes for $2,444,400, resulting is a loss of $119,842.

Note 4 — VIEs

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s consolidated financial statements include ten entities, all of which are real estate operating entities, consolidated as VIEs. Management has determined that the equity holders in these entities (which may or may not include the Company), as a group, lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and/or have disproportionate voting rights relative to their equity; and the Company has all of the decision-making power with respect to the activities of the entity, and none of the equity holders in the entity have substantive protective or participating rights to remove the power from the Company. 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 entity and the right to absorb losses, generally in the form of guarantees of indebtedness.

Generally, the assets of the individual consolidated VIEs can be used only to settle liabilities of the each individual consolidated VIE and the liabilities of the individual consolidated VIEs are liabilities for which creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company. 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, our 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.

In December 2017, the Tax Cut and Jobs Act was signed into law, which enacts significant changes to U.S. tax and related laws. Some of the provisions of the new tax law affecting corporations include, but are not limited to a reduction of the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, limiting the interest expense deduction, expensing of cost of acquired qualified property and elimination of the domestic production activities deduction. We have adjusted our net deferred federal income tax assets as of the year ended December 31, 2017, as a result of the income tax rate reduction.

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had $10,541,818 and $7,170,409 of federal and state net operating losses (“NOL”), respectively, available to offset future taxable income. The federal and state NOLs, 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 losses as a significant piece of negative evidence and established a full valuation allowance of $3,973,166 and $4,664,457 against the Company’s net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

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 IRS as well as state taxing authorities for the past four years.

We apply the generally accepted accounting principal 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.

Accordingly, we recorded a liability in the amount of the estimated fair value (level 3) of the above-market lease. The above-market lease is amortized as a reduction to lease expense over the term of the lease. Accumulated amortization of the above-market lease intangible as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, was $647,944 and $522,536, respectively.

Preferred Stock

Preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, and the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, or restrictions thereof, of each series of preferred stock shall be prescribed by resolution of the board of directors.

Share Surrender

Effective January 1, 2016, the Founders surrendered 32,280,462 shares (the “Surrendered Shares”) of their common stock to the Company, thereby relinquishing to the Company all of their rights, title, and interest in the Surrendered Shares.

Non-employee Grants

In August 2014, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Mercadyne Advisors, LLC (“Mercadyne”) and 6831614 Manitoba Ltd. (collectively, the “Consultants”). Per the agreement, the services to be provided by the Consultants were business consulting related services primarily focused on assisting the Company in accessing capital markets and designing, implementing, and completing a public offering. In exchange for the services, the agreement outlined the Consultants compensation to include a $25,000 monthly fee paid in cash and a contingently exercisable warrant to purchase a 15% equity interest in the Company for an aggregate exercise price of $1,000, exercisable upon the completion of a public offering. The agreement was amended in February 2015, for the purposes of amending the compensation to be a grant of equity rather than a warrant to purchase a 15% equity interest in the Company on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the amendment, for a price of $1,000, and to memorialize that all services required to be provided in connection with the agreement had been provided, although a public offering had not been completed. The agreement does not include a stated number of shares of common stock to be issued in exchange for the services provided. As of December 31, 2016, no shares had been issued to the Consultants, and a liability in the amount of $2,508,051, was reflected on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The liability was calculated as the estimated fair value (level 3) as of the measurement date of the estimated shares to be issued. The fair value of the shares to be issued was estimated based on the then current private market selling price of the Company’s common stock, at the measurement date. In estimating the number of shares to be issued, the Company estimated a total of 2,950,648 shares to be issued to the two parties, based on all available information. In March 2017, the Company and Mercadyne entered into a stock subscription agreement which finalized the number of shares of common stock to be issued to Mercadyne in connection with the consulting agreement and related amendment. The final number of shares issued to Mercadyne in connection with the agreement was 1,325,324. At the time of the settlement our liability was reduced by $1,126,525, with a corresponding increase to stockholders’ equity. At December 31, 2017, the Company and 6831614 Manitoba Ltd. were in the process of negotiating the number of shares of common stock to be issued to finalize the arrangement, and the Company had a remaining liability recorded in the amount of $1,381,526.

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

In July 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2017 Plan”). The 2017 Plan allows the Company to: i) grant stock awards; ii) grant stock options; and iii) offer restricted stock purchases to directors, executives and selected employees, consultants, and advisors. The shares awarded under the terms of the plan will be shares of common stock, and the total number of shares to be issued under the 2017 Plan will not exceed 2,000,000. The specific terms of each award, option, or purchase will be defined at the time each such award, option, or purchase is granted or completed. No awards, options, or restricted stock purchase offers had been issued in connection with the 2017 Plan as of December 31, 2017.

Note 12 — Redeemable Preferred Stock

Series A Preferred Stock

In January 2016, the Company designated 2,564,103 of the 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”). The powers, preferences, rights, and limitations of Series A are as follows:

•

Holders of Series A are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends equal to 12.0% per annum prior to the payment of any dividends to holders of common stock.

•

In the event of the liquidation of the Company, holders of Series A are entitled to receive an amount equal to their original contribution plus any declared and accrued but unpaid dividends prior to any payment or distribution to common stock holders.

•

Shares of Series A are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion ratio of 1.25 shares of common stock for each share of Series A, any time prior to a redemption by the Company or a mandatory conversion, at the holders’ option.

•

Upon the common stock of the Company publicly trading at a per share price on a weighted-average over 20 trading days at a market capitalization of at least $100,000,000, Series A will automatically be converted into shares of common stock at a conversion ratio of 1.25 shares of common stock for each share of Series A.

•

All outstanding shares of Series A shall be redeemed by the Company on the fourth anniversary of the issuance of such shares (the “Redemption Date”) at a price of $2.25 per share, plus any declared and accrued but unpaid dividends. At any time during the one year period immediately preceding the Redemption Date, the Company may redeem shares of Series A at a price equal to $2.3625 per share.

•

Holders of Series A and holders of common stock shall vote together and not as separate classes, and shall be entitled to vote with common stockholders as if their shares were converted into shares of common stock.

In January 2016, the Company began selling shares of common stock and Series A in units equivalent to 2 shares of common stock and 1 share of Series A per unit, at a cost of $5.85 per unit ($1.80 per share of common stock and $2.25 per share of Series A preferred stock). During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had issued a total of 688,392 units, or 688,392 shares, of Series A preferred stock. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company had issued a total of 697,836 units, or 697,836 shares, of Series A preferred stock.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, 85,470 of the shares of Series A preferred stock issued were issued to a third party in exchange for a note receivable from a related party, based on the then current private market selling price of the common stock.

As of December 31, 2017, the future mandatory redemptions for each year ended December 31, were as follows:

Note 12 — Redeemable Preferred Stock (continued)

One year following the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company is required to establish, and contribute to a reserve of funds on a quarterly basis, an amount that shall cumulatively be sufficient to pay any amounts due for the redemption of Series A Preferred Stock. The quarterly contributions to the reserve are required to be at least one-twelfth (1/12) of the total amount needed to pay for the redemption of all of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the required reserve was $384,594 and $0, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company paid dividends to preferred stockholders in the amounts of $197,825, or $0.25 per share, and $68,927, or $0.16 per share, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, preferred dividends in arrears were $61,467, or $0.04 per share, and $43,475, or $0.06 per share, respectively.

Note 13 — Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, was calculated as follows:

	2017			2016
Net loss attibutable to CaliberCos, Inc.		$	(2,703,463)		$	(2,911,105)
Preferred stock dividends			(197,825)			(68,927)
Accretion of mezzanine equity value			(15,868)			(45,599)
Net loss attibutable to common stockholders of CaliberCos, Inc.		$	(2,917,156)		$	(3,025,631)
Waighted-average common shares outstanding			25,299,392			23,486,893
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders		$	(0.12)		$	(0.13)

The computation of diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders assumes the potential dilutive effect of potential common shares, which includes the exercise of warrants and converted preferred shares. However, 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. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the inclusion of the effect of any potential exercise of warrants or conversion of preferred shares to common shares is antidilutive, and therefore have been excluded from the computation of loss per share attributable to common stockholders. Additional potential common shares related to the outstanding warrants and preferred shares at December 31, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

	2017		2016
Additional common shares, if warrants were exercised		1,209,187		1,239,804
Additional common shares, if preferred shares were converted		1,732,786		872,081
		2,941,973		2,111,885

The Company estimates fair values of financial instruments 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.

The carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt, advance key money, and interest rate caps as of December 31, 2017, approximated fair value, with the exception of the long-term debt instruments listed below, all of which were measured with Level 3 inputs.

Note 16 — Revision of Prior Year Consolidated Financial Statements

In the Company’s prior year consolidated financial statements the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests did not include an allocation of the charges from CaliberCos, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries to entities that are consolidated VIEs. CaliberCos, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries charge the consolidated VIEs various fees for services including construction and development, asset management, property management, real estate brokerage, and capital raising. In the current year presentation, the prior year cost of such fees, which are eliminated in consolidation, have been allocated to the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. These adjustments did not effect previously reported net loss. The adjustments that have been made in the current year consolidated financial statements to the previously reported financial statements are outlined below, as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2016.
