Caliber Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

2026 Revenue Guidance Revised, Platform Profitability Guidance Reaffirmed; 
Three Additional Offerings Tokenized

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Caliber (Nasdaq: CWD), a real estate-focused alternative asset manager, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026. Platform Adjusted EBITDA was positive for the second consecutive quarter and $0.8 million better than the third quarter of 2025.

Caliber operates two businesses: its real estate investment platform, which produces substantially all of the Company’s revenue, and Caliber Tokenization Services, launched in August 2026, which brings tokenization to private real estate funds, starting with the funds Caliber manages.

Third Quarter 2026 Platform Financial Results (compared to Third Quarter 2025)

• Platform revenue of $3.8 million, compared to $3.5 million.
  • The $0.3 million increase was driven primarily by a $0.3 million increase in fund management fees and a $0.2 million increase in development and construction fees, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in financing fees.
• Platform net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to Platform net loss of $4.4 million, or $1.70 per diluted share. Platform net loss includes a $3.9 million non-cash provision for income taxes recorded in the quarter; Platform net loss before income taxes was $0.4 million, compared to $4.4 million.
• Platform Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million, compared to Platform Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.7 million.

Third Quarter 2026 Tokenized Platform Highlights

• Caliber completes the tokenization of three additional real estate projects, continuing the Company’s strategy to integrate blockchain infrastructure into its real estate fund offerings.
• Total Platform tokenized offerings represent up to $110 million in offered equity in 4 tokenized offerings.
• As of September 30, 2026, Caliber held 229,203 LINK tokens (LINK, the token underlying Chainlink) with a fair value of $3.3 million. The Company did not purchase or sell LINK during the quarter, and the change in fair value of its digital assets was a gain of $1.6 million.

Management Commentary

“Each of our two businesses has a different objective,” said Chris Loeffler, CEO of Caliber. “Our real estate platform is the foundation, and our objective for it is steady, consistent profitability. We have sized its cost base to this market, and Platform Adjusted EBITDA was positive for the second consecutive quarter even as tighter credit moved several transactions into 2027. That is why we lowered our revenue guidance while reaffirming our Platform Adjusted EBITDA guidance.”

“Tokenization is our growth engine. This month we took three more offerings live with tokenized ownership, bringing the total to four, with more than $110 million of combined maximum offered equity. Caliber Tokenization Services is designed to grow through technology partners rather than a large internal team, which we believe lets it scale without adding significant overhead.”

2026 Outlook and Path to Profitability

Caliber today revised its 2026 total Platform revenue guidance, previously $18.0 million to $22.0 million, reflecting the shift of certain revenue previously expected in the fourth quarter into future periods as tighter credit conditions extended financing timelines; reaffirmed its 2026 Platform Adjusted EBITDA profitability guidance. The revised revenue range assumes no improvement in financing conditions through the end of the year

Updated 2026 guidance:

• Total Platform revenue in the range of $15.0 million to $17.0 million
• Platform Adjusted EBITDA profitability

Business Update

The following are key milestones completed both during and after the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

• On July 2, 2026, Caliber announced the next phase of its real estate fund tokenization strategy, building on Chainlink, the industry-standard oracle platform, as part of a broader effort to modernize how private real estate assets and funds are financed, owned, administered, and accessed.

• On July 16, 2026, Caliber announced that it has broken ground on its Hyatt Studios extended stay hotel in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Company executives, development partners, and community leaders gathered to celebrate the start of construction of the approximately 114-room extended-stay hotel at 1801 Lincoln Avenue. The four-story, 57,971 square foot property is expected to open in the second half of 2027 and will help address the growing demand for modern extended-stay accommodations in one of Colorado’s premier four-season destinations.

• On August 13, 2026, Caliber announced that it has gone live with its PURE Pickleball & Padel investment offering as the first real estate investment on its platform to be tokenized. The initiative creates a real-world, practical example of how blockchain-based ownership infrastructure can improve the private real estate investor experience.

• On August 27, 2026, Caliber announced the formation of Caliber Tokenization Services, LLC (“CTS”), a new division that provides full-service real-world asset (RWA) tokenization engagements to family offices that own and operate significant real estate portfolios, under the brand, Tokenized by Caliber.

• On September 14, 2026, Caliber announced that it has completed the refinancing of approximately $3.4 million of its corporate promissory notes, and has executed agreements with holders of an additional approximately $9.1 million of notes granting Caliber the right, exercisable over the next six months, to retire those notes in full for approximately $7.3 million in cash. Together, the two elements address approximately $12.5 million of corporate notes, including approximately $11.3 million, or approximately 54%, of the $21.1 million of unsecured corporate and convertible notes that the Company disclosed as maturing within twelve months in its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2026.

• On November 4, 2026, Caliber announced that it has gone live with three additional tokenized real estate investment offerings: Caliber-Hyatt Studios Steamboat, Caliber-Hyatt Studios Phoenix/TSMC and the Caliber-HS Feeder Fund. Combined, the three offerings represent up to $85 million in offered equity. Tokenization is designed to give investors a clearer digital record of what they own and, through Caliber’s Automated NAV (CNAV), a clearer view of its value. Together with lender rights, Caliber believes this will enable investors to borrow against their tokenized investment interest while retaining ownership. The launch follows the Company’s first tokenization, PURE Pickleball & Padel, and extends the same ownership infrastructure to both individual developments and a fund structure.
• Through November 12, 2026, holders had exchanged $3.8 million of notes for new amortizing notes or Series AAA Preferred Stock, and the Company had executed payoff option agreements covering $14.8 million of notes, of which $13.6 million mature within twelve months and may be retired for approximately $10.9 million in cash, displaying further progress since the Company’s September 14th 2026 announcement.

Third Quarter 2026 Consolidated Financial Results (compared to Third Quarter 2025)

• Total consolidated revenue of $4.3 million, compared to $3.6 million primarily reflecting the consolidation of Riverwalk in the fourth quarter of 2025 and Commons Fundco, LLC in the first quarter of 2026.
• Consolidated net loss attributable to Caliber of $5.0 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to Caliber of $4.4 million, or $1.65 per diluted share. The third quarter includes the $3.9 million provision for income taxes and a $0.7 million, or $0.07 per share, out-of-period correction of the attribution of net loss between Caliber and noncontrolling interests in the first and second quarters of 2026.
• Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.2 million, compared to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.5 million.

Platform Definition

Within this earnings release, we refer to performance results of the ‘Platform’. Platform refers to the performance of CWD itself, excluding the performance of certain assets & funds that are included in our consolidated results, as required by the United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management believes that Platform performance offers the most meaningful information needed to understand the value of CWD. The assets and funds that are consolidated into our GAAP presentation are included because Caliber is a guarantor of debt held by these assets and funds.

While GAAP consolidation rules require CWD to include the performance and cash flows of these assets & funds in our consolidated financial information, CWD does not benefit from the performance of those assets & funds, except to the extent that CWD earns fees from managing the assets and funds (which are included in the Platform results). Management believes presenting Platform results, which exclude consolidated assets, directly shows the business performance that CWD stockholders benefit from.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

The following information reconciles the performance of the Platform to the consolidated GAAP presentation. Management believes that the Platform view of Caliber’s performance is more meaningful to a CWD shareholder as it includes all revenues and expenses generated by Caliber and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

FV AUM and Managed Capital (UNAUDITED)

The following information summarizes management’s estimates of fair value related to the entire portfolio of investments that Caliber manages and the total amount of capital that is being managed across the portfolio. The fair value of our AUM conveys an indication of the overall health of our investments and potentially how much performance allocation Caliber would earn if those assets were sold. Managed Capital is used to evaluate, among other things, the amount of asset management fees we generate from the portfolio.

Consolidated GAAP Results

The following information presents our consolidated GAAP results which includes the performance of certain entities we manage where Caliber is the guarantor of debt owed by those entities, despite not having significant equity at risk. As a result of these guarantor commitments, Caliber is required under GAAP to include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those entities even though a shareholder of CWD stock is neither entitled to nor exposed by those entities’ benefits or obligations. This accounting outcome also removes revenues that we earn from those entities, which a shareholder of CWD stock would be entitled to. See discussion elsewhere related to CWD’s Platform performance.

Definitions

Assets Under Management

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

1. Managed Capital – we define this as the total capital we fundraise from our customers as investments in our funds. It also includes fundraising into our corporate note program, the proceeds of which were used, in part, to invest in or loan to our funds. We use this information to monitor, among other things, the amount of ‘preferred return’ that would be paid at the time of a distribution and the potential to earn a performance fee over and above the preferred return at the time of the distribution. Our fund management fees are based on a percentage of managed capital or a percentage of assets under management, and monitoring the change and composition of managed capital provides relevant data points for Caliber management to further calculate and predict future earnings.
2. Fair Value (“FV”) AUM – we define this is as the aggregate fair value of the real estate assets we manage and from which we derive management fees, performance revenues and other fees and expense reimbursements. We estimate the value of these assets quarterly to help make sale and hold decisions and to evaluate whether an existing asset would benefit from refinancing or recapitalization. This also gives us insight into the value of our carried interest at any point in time. We also utilize FV AUM to predict the percentage of our portfolio which may need development services in a given year, fund management services (such as refinance), and brokerage services. As we control the decision to hire for these services, our service income is generally predictable based upon our current portfolio AUM and our expectations for AUM growth in the year forecasted.

Non-GAAP Measures

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

Asset Management Platform or Platform

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

Fee-Related Earnings and Related Components

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

Distributable Earnings

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

Platform Earnings

Platform Earnings represents the performance of our asset management platform, which generates revenues and expenses from managing our investment portfolio, excluding any consolidated assets or funds.

Platform Earnings per Share

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

Platform Adjusted EBITDA

Platform Adjusted EBITDA represents our Distributable Earnings adjusted for interest expense, other income (expense), and provision for income taxes on a basis that deconsolidates our consolidated funds (intercompany eliminations), and eliminates noncontrolling interest. Eliminating the impact of consolidated funds and noncontrolling interest provides investors a view of the performance attributable to the Platform and is consistent with performance models and analysis used by management.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

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