PART II
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The Company
Modiv Divisibles, LLC is a limited liability company organized on March 6, 2018 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company was originally incorporated under the name REITless Impact Income Strategies LLC, but changed its name on December 22, 2020 to Modiv Divisibles, LLC following the May 15, 2020 acquisition described below. We intend to invest in a portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Each commercial real estate investment will be represented by a separate and distinct share class which will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in individual properties by acquiring different classes of shares. Investors in each share class will receive distributions based on the cash flow generated by the property underlying such share class. Each share class would earn a return for our investors through the collection of rents from the property underlying such share class, along with the potential for capital gains upon any sales of the property after an extended holding period. We are evaluating whether we will elect to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2021.
Prior to May 15, 2020, we were managed by North Capital, Inc. (the “Former Manager”), a Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)-Registered Investment Advisor and an affiliate of North Capital Investment Technology, Inc. (“NCIT” or the “Former Sponsor”). NCIT owned and operated an online investment platform www.reitless.com (the “REITless Platform”), which allowed investors to become equity or debt holders in real estate opportunities that may have been historically difficult to access for some investors. Through the use of the REITless Platform, investors could browse real estate debt investments, view details of an investment, execute legal documents, and arrange for payments online.
On May 15, 2020, our Former Sponsor entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Modiv Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Modiv Advisors" or our “Advisor”), pursuant to which Modiv Advisors purchased 100% of our outstanding common shares for $50,000 in cash (the “Acquisition”) as well as 100% of the membership interests of REITless Impact Opportunity Zone Strategies LLC, another real estate investment trust (“REIT”) sponsored by our Former Sponsor for $20,000 in cash. As a result of such acquisition, we are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of, and managed by, Modiv Advisors, which is in turn an indirect subsidiary of Modiv Inc., a pioneer in the direct-to-consumer commercial real estate product industry, having created one of the largest non-listed REITs to raise capital via crowd funding technology. For periods prior to the Acquisition, our Company is referred to as the “Predecessor” and for periods after the Acquisition, our Company is referred to as the “Successor.”
We plan to originate, invest in and manage a portfolio of commercial real estate investments that is diversified by investment type, investment size and investment risk with the goal of providing investors with an opportunity to invest in separate and distinct classes of shares, with each class of shares representing an ownership interest in a special purpose entity (“SPE”) that owns an individual real estate property. We plan to acquire interests in SPEs that own a commercial real estate property that will provide stable, attractive returns to our investors. We do not currently have any employees, nor do we currently intend to hire any employees who will be compensated directly by us. As of December 31, 2020, we have not commenced operations nor have we identified any specific investments in which there is a reasonable probability that we will invest.
Modiv Advisors is responsible for managing our day-to-day operations and our planned portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Modiv Advisors also has the authority to make all of the decisions regarding our investments, subject to the limitations in our operating agreement and the direction and oversight of our Board of Managers. Modiv Advisors will also provide marketing, investor relations and other administrative services on our behalf.
Modiv Advisors intends to update our offering circular in the coming months to update our investment strategy with innovative, investor-first features that will enhance our original qualified Reg A+ offering. We intend to use substantially all of the proceeds of the Offering (defined below) to originate, invest in and manage a portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Each commercial real estate investment will be represented by a separate and distinct share class which will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in individual properties by acquiring different classes of shares.
On November 2, 2018, our “best efforts” offering of common shares, representing limited liability interests in us (the “Offering”), pursuant to Regulation A was qualified by the SEC. We have not commenced the Offering and plan to seek to raise up to $75,000,000 in the Offering which we currently expect to commence in the second half of 2021.
As of December 31, 2020, we have not commenced planned principal operations or generated revenue. Our activities since inception have consisted of formation activities and preparations for capital raising. Once we commence our planned principal operations, we will incur significant additional expenses. We are dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of our planned principal operations which is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure funding to initiate our planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.
Investment Objectives
Our primary investment objectives are:
• | to provide our shareholders with attractive and regular cash distributions; |
• | to preserve, protect and return shareholders’ capital contributions; |
• | to realize appreciation in NAV from proactive investment selection and investment management; |
• | to provide future opportunities for growth and value creation; and |
• | to provide an investment alternative for shareholders seeking to allocate a portion of their long-term investment portfolios to commercial real estate with lower volatility than public real estate companies. |
Investment Strategy
We intend to use substantially all of the proceeds of the Offering to originate, invest in and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Each commercial real estate investment will be represented by a separate and distinct share class which will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in individual properties by acquiring different classes of shares. Each class of shares will represent an ownership interest in an SPE that owns an individual property.
We will seek to acquire properties that generate cash flow, allowing us to make regular distributions to our shareholders based on the cash flow generated by the individual property in each class of our common shares along with the potential for capital gains upon any sale of the property underlying such share class after an extended holding period. Our focus will emphasize the payment of current returns to shareholders and preservation of invested capital as our primary investment objectives.
Our underwriting process will involve comprehensive and systematic financial, structural, operational and legal due diligence in order to identify and structure investments that meet our investment objectives. We feel the market environment offers a broad range of opportunities to source compelling investments with attractive risk-return profiles.
Competition
Our net income depends, in large part, on our ability to originate investments with attractive risk-adjusted returns. In originating these investments, we will compete with other REITs, pension funds, insurance companies, private equity and other investment funds and companies, partnerships and other entities, as well as other online platforms, many of which have greater financial resources and a lower cost of capital than we do and may be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage. Competitive variables include market presence and visibility, size of investments offered and underwriting standards. To the extent that a competitor is willing to risk larger amounts of capital in a particular transaction or to employ more liberal underwriting standards when evaluating potential investments than we are, our investment volume and profit margins for our investment portfolio could be impacted.
Our competitors may also be willing to accept lower returns on their investments and may succeed in buying the assets that we have targeted for acquisition. Although we believe that we are well positioned to compete effectively in each facet of our business, there is enormous competition in our market sector and we cannot assure you that we will compete effectively or that we will not encounter increased competition in the future that could limit our ability to conduct our business effectively.
Risk Factors
We face risks and uncertainties that could affect us and our business as well as the real estate industry generally. These risks are outlined under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in our offering circular dated November 1, 2019, which may be accessed here: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1742092/000110465919058812/tv531500_253g2.htm#b_05. We anticipate that the offering circular will be updated later this year. In addition, new risks may emerge at any time and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. The following are additional risk factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic that arose during 2020 which could negatively impact our ability to secure funding to initiate our planned operations and to profitably operate our business.
Measures intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19 have disrupted our ability to operate our business.
In response to the outbreak of COVID-19 and the federal and state mandates implemented to control its spread, most of our Advisor’s employees are working remotely. If our Advisor’s employees are unable to work effectively as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including because of illness, quarantines, office closures, ineffective remote work arrangements or technology failures or limitations, our operations would be adversely impacted. Further, remote work arrangements may increase the risk of cybersecurity incidents, data breaches or cyber-attacks, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations, due to, among other things, the loss of proprietary data, interruptions or delays in the operation of our business, damage to our reputation and any government-imposed penalty.
The current COVID-19 pandemic, and any future outbreak of other highly infectious or contagious diseases, could materially and adversely impact or disrupt our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and any other pandemics in the future could have, repercussions across regional, national and global economies and financial markets. The outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States and in many countries has adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has been rapidly evolving and has continued to affect more countries. Many countries, including the United States, have responded by instituting quarantines for some period of time, mandating business and school closures and restrictions on their re-openings, banning group gatherings and restricting travel, among others.
Certain states and cities have also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “shelter in place” rules and restrictions to only essential businesses that may continue to operate. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry directly or indirectly, including the real estate industry in which we plan to operate.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence; including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic; the success of actions or measures taken to contain or treat COVID-19, or mitigate its impact; and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic, among others.
The rapid development and fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic precludes us from making any prediction as to the full adverse impact of the pandemic. Nevertheless, the pandemic presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to ability to secure funding to initiate our planned operations and to profitably operate our business.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise indicated, the latest results discussed below are as of December 31, 2020.
Modiv Advisors will be updating our Offering Circular in the coming months to update our investment strategy and the terms of our Offering. We intend to use substantially all of the proceeds of the Offering to originate, invest in and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Each commercial real estate investment will be represented by a separate and distinct share class which will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in individual properties by acquiring different classes of shares. Each class of shares will represent an ownership interest in an SPE that owns an individual property.
Results of Operations
As of December 31, 2020 (Successor) and 2019 (Predecessor), we have not commenced principal operations other than those associated with general start-up and organizational matters, and we have not generated any revenue.
For the period from May 15, 2020 (date of Acquisition) to December 31, 2020 and from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019, we had a net loss of $965 (Successor), a net income of $8,697 (Predecessor) and a net loss of $13,497 (Predecessor), respectively.
The net income for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 was primarily the result of a gain on forgiveness of amounts due to related parties by our Former Manager, offset in part by general and administrative expenses we paid. Our net loss in 2019 was primarily the result of general and administrative expenses we paid.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2020 (Successor) and 2019 (Predecessor), we had $0 and $502,018, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. During the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020, we distributed $501,000 to our sole member and the remaining balance was used to pay our current liabilities. We are dependent upon the net proceeds from the Offering to conduct our proposed operations. We will obtain the capital required to purchase and originate real estate-related investments and conduct our operations from the proceeds of the Offering and any private placements and future offerings we may conduct, from secured or unsecured financing obtained from banks or other lenders, and from any undistributed funds from our operations.
If we raise substantially less than $75,000,000 in gross offering proceeds, we will make fewer investments which will negatively impact our liquidity and capital resources. For instance, we will have certain fixed operating expenses, including certain expenses related to operating as a publicly-offered REIT, regardless of whether we are able to raise substantial funds in the Offering. Our inability to raise substantial funds would increase our fixed operating expenses as a percentage of gross income per share class, reducing our net income per share class and limiting our ability to make distributions on each share class. In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we expect to use our capital resources to make certain payments to our Advisor. As of December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), advances from related parties related to our organization and the Offering and paid by the Former Manager on our behalf totaled $120,672. During the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020, our Former Manager converted the balance of $112,157 to equity, which was previously advanced to the Company. We have no outstanding third-party debt and we have received no commitment from any lender to provide us with financing.
Market Outlook - Real Estate Capital Markets
We are cautiously optimistic that improving economic fundamentals, higher transaction volume, and a recovering commercial real estate lending market will bolster core United States metro markets.
As a result of the global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, economic uncertainties have arisen that continue to have an adverse impact on economic and market conditions. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been evolving, and the pandemic presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our future performance and future financial results. We are unable to quantify the impact the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our future financial results at this time and an adverse market environment could materially impact the cost and availability of equity capital and long-term credit, hampering our ability to originate the investments that we intend to offer.
While the U.S. economy appears to be recovering from the recession that commenced in February 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of variants of the COVID-19 virus, could continue to materially disrupt our future operations and impact our financial performance. The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on us and our future results of operations will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic, the success of actions taken to contain or treat COVID-19, and reactions by consumers, companies, governmental entities and capital markets.

We have also audited the accompanying financial statements of REITless Impact Income Strategies, LLC (the “Predecessor”), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), the related statements of operations, member’s equity, and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), and the related notes to the financial statements. The financial statements of the Predecessor and the Successor and the related notes to the financial statements are collectively referred to herein as the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Modiv Divisibles, LLC as of December 31, 2020 (Successor), and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from May 15, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (Successor), and the financial position of REITless Impact Income Strategies, LLC as of December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis-of-Matter
As discussed in Notes 1 and 3 to the financial statements, the members transferred all interests in the Company to a third-party on May 15, 2020, resulting in a new basis of accounting for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the acquiror. The Company elected to apply pushdown accounting in its financial statements due to this change of control event. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

MODIV DIVISIBLES, LLC
(f/k/a REITless Impact Income Strategies LLC)
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Modiv Divisibles, LLC (the “Company”) is a single member limited liability company organized on March 6, 2018 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company was originally incorporated under the name REITless Impact Income Strategies LLC, but changed its name on December 22, 2020 to Modiv Divisibles, LLC following the May 15, 2015 acquisition described below. The Company intends to invest in a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate investments. Each commercial real estate investment will be represented by a separate and distinct share class which will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in individual properties by acquiring different classes of shares. Investors in each share class will receive distributions based on the cash flow generated by the property underlying such share class. Each share class would earn a return for our investors through the collection of rents from the property underlying such share class, along with the potential for capital gains upon any sales of the property after an extended holding period.
Prior to May 15, 2020, the Company was managed by North Capital, Inc. (the “Former Manager”), a Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)-Registered Investment Advisor and an affiliate of North Capital Investment Technology Inc. (“NCIT” or the “Former Sponsor”). North Capital, Inc. had exclusive control over all aspects of the Company’s business in its role as Former Manager. The majority shareholder was a registered principal with North Capital Private Securities Corp. (“NCPS”).
On May 15, 2020, the Former Sponsor entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Modiv Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Modiv Advisors” or our “Advisor”), pursuant to which Modiv Advisors purchased 100% of the Company’s outstanding common shares for $50,000 in cash (the “Acquisition”). As a result of such acquisition, the Company is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of, and managed by, Modiv Advisors.
Modiv Advisors intends to update the Company's offering circular in the coming months to update the Company’s investment strategy and Offering structure with innovative, investor-first features that will enhance the Company’s original qualified Reg A+ offering. The Company intends to use substantially all of the proceeds of the Offering (defined below) to originate, invest in and manage a portfolio of real estate properties that will provide investors an opportunity to invest in individual properties by acquiring separate classes of our common shares as described above. Each class of common shares will represent an ownership interest in special purpose subsidiary (“SPE”) that owns an individual property.
The Company initiated a “best efforts” offering of common shares, representing limited liability interests in the Company (the “Offering”). On November 2, 2018, pursuant to Regulation A, the offering was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company has not commenced the Offering and plans to seek to raise up to $75,000,000 in the Offering expected to commence in the second half of 2021.
In connection with our evaluation required by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financials Statements - Going Concern, for the period from May 15, 2020 to December 31, 2020, management has concluded that as of the date of this report, there are no conditions or events that raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has not commenced planned principal operations or generated revenue. The Company’s activities since inception have consisted of formation activities and preparations for capital raising. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure funding to initiate the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation.
On May 15, 2020, the Former Sponsor entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Modiv Advisors, pursuant to which Modiv Advisors purchased 100% of the Company’s outstanding common shares.
On December 31, 2020, Modiv Advisors revised the financial statements of the Company to reflect the application of pushdown accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805. Under pushdown accounting, an acquired company records the new basis of accounting established by the acquirer for the individual assets and liabilities of the acquired company. As such, the Company recorded the fair value of its assets acquired of $54,800 and liabilities assumed of $4,800 (see Note 3 for more details).
For periods prior to the Acquisition, the Company is referred to as the “Predecessor” and for periods after the Acquisition, it is referred to as the “Successor.” As discussed above, Modiv Advisors applied pushdown accounting for the Acquisition, and accordingly, the Company’s results of operations and cash flows in the Predecessor and Successor periods are not comparable. Due to the acquisition and the application of pushdown accounting, different bases of accounting have been used to prepare the Predecessor and Successor financial statements. A black line separates the Successor and Predecessor financial statements to highlight the lack of comparability between the Predecessor and Successor periods.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure funding to continue to operationalize the Company’s plans or failing to profitably operate the business.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2020 (Successor) and 2019 (Predecessor), the Company had $0 and $502,018 of cash and cash equivalents, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an existing price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy, which is based on three levels of inputs, the first two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, is as follows:
Level 1: | quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
Level 2: | inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and |
Level 3: | unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these items.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is in the development stage and has yet to realize revenues from operations.
Organizational Costs
In accordance with FASB ASC 720, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fees and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering” in the Company's recognition of deferred offering costs. Deferred offering costs consist principally of legal fees and other costs incurred in connection with an offering the Company intends to commence during the second half of 2021 under Regulation A.
Prior to the completion of the Offering, these costs are capitalized as deferred offering costs on the balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be charged to members’ equity upon the completion of the Offering or to expense if the Offering is not completed. Deferred offering costs of $54,800 and $106,157 were capitalized as of December 31, 2020 (Successor) and 2019 (Predecessor), respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company is a Delaware limited liability company and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, all taxable income or loss flows through to its member. Therefore, no provision for income tax has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Income from the Company is reported and taxed to the member on its individual tax returns. The Company is evaluating whether it will elect to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2021.
The Company complies with FASB ASC 740 for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position.
The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and local income taxation, although it has not been since its inception. The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive items are excluded from the computation of the diluted earnings (loss) per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As no potentially dilutive items exist for the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor) and for the period from May 15, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (Successor), basic and diluted earnings per share are the same. Diluted EPS is the same as Basic EPS for the year ended December 31, 2019 (Predecessor) as the Company had a net loss for the year.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company does not have any leases, implementation of this new standard did not have any impact on the Company's financial reporting and disclosures.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.
Note 3. Members' Equity
The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares and an unlimited number of preferred shares. The Company’s manager has rights to establish additional series or classes of its shares with differing rights and privileges. The Company plans to issue additional series or classes of its shares that will allow investors to acquire an ownership interest in SPEs that own an individual property and receive distributions based on the cash flow provided by such property. Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote per share on matters put to a shareholder vote at the sole discretion of the Company’s manager.
On May 15, 2020, the Former Sponsor entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Modiv Advisors, pursuant to which Modiv Advisors purchased 100% of the Company’s outstanding common shares for $50,000 in cash and the assumption of a $4,800 accrued liability.
The following table summarizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of Acquisition:
Asset | | | |
Deferred offering costs | | $ | 54,800 | |
Liability | | | | |
Accrued liability | | | (4,800 | ) |
Net asset acquired | | $ | 50,000 | |
During the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor), the Company repurchased 50,000 shares for $501,000. For the year ended December 31, 2019 (Predecessor), the Company issued 50,000 common shares at $10.00 per share, resulting in a capital contribution of $500,000.
During the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor), the Company’s Former Manager converted the balance of $112,157 to equity, which was previously advanced to the Company. Additionally, $15,378 of the Former Manager’s advances to the Company was recognized as forgiveness of amounts due to related parties pertaining to the funding of operating costs, and is therefore included in other income in the Company's statement of operations for the period from January 1, 2020 to May 14, 2020 (Predecessor).
The debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, are solely the debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Company, and no member of the Company is obligated personally for any such debt, obligation, or liability.
Note 4. Related Party Transactions
On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into an operating services agreement with North Capital Inc., the Former Manager of the Company. Under the agreement, the Former Manager was entitled to an annual asset management fee of 1.00%, paid quarterly, which was based on the Company’s net proceeds from the initial offering as of the end of each quarter, and thereafter would be based on the Company’s net asset value at the end of each prior quarter as calculated pursuant to the agreement.
The Former Manager was also entitled to receive a special servicing fee equal to an annualized rate of 1.00% of the original value of a non-performing asset, payable quarterly in arrears. Whether an asset was deemed to be non-performing was in the sole discretion of the Former Manager. No related fees were paid.
The Former Manager was also entitled to acquisition and origination fees paid by a borrower of up to 5.00% of the amount funded by the Former Sponsor or affiliates of the Former Sponsor to acquire or originate loans or other real estate related assets, excluding any acquisition and origination expenses and any debt attributable to any such investments. No related fees were paid.
The Company was also required to reimburse the Former Manager for all costs and expenses incurred solely on behalf of the Company including fees paid to and expenses of third-party service providers, other than those expenses that were specifically the responsibility of the Former Manager pursuant to the agreement.
Expenses from inception through May 14, 2020 were paid by the Former Manager of the Company, North Capital, Inc., and its affiliates NCIT and NCPS, on the Company’s behalf. Per the Company’s operating agreement, the Company was obligated to reimburse the Former Manager and its affiliates, without interest, for expenses they incurred in connection with the formation of the Company. Prior to May 15, 2020, the Former Manager decided to forgo such reimbursements and converted the balance of $112,157 to equity, which was previously advanced to the Company. The amounts due to related parties were $5,644 and $120,672 as of December 31, 2020 (Successor) and 2019 (Predecessor), respectively. The $5,644 due to related parties as of December 31, 2020 (Successor) represents the amount due to Modiv Advisors for reimbursements of costs paid on behalf of the Company.
Modiv Advisors will be reevaluating the fees to be charged to the Company under the Company's operating agreement when it updates the offering circular.
Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies
As of December 31, 2020 (Successor), the Company has not commenced planned principal operations or generated revenue. The Company’s activities since inception have consisted of formation activities and preparations for capital raising.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceeding, nor is the Company aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business should such litigation be resolved unfavorably.

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
