BELPOINTE PREP, LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Organization, Business Purpose and Capitalization
Organization and Business Purpose
Belpointe PREP, LLC (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was formed on January 24, 2020 as a Delaware limited liability company. We operate in a manner that allows us to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We are focused on identifying, acquiring, developing or redeveloping and managing commercial real estate located within “qualified opportunity zones.” At least 90% of our assets consist of qualified opportunity zone property, which enables us to be classified as a “qualified opportunity fund” as defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). We qualified as a qualified opportunity fund beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2020.
We commenced principal operations on October 28, 2020. All of our assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, one or more operating companies (each an “Operating Company” and together, our “Operating Companies”), either directly or indirectly through their subsidiaries. We are externally managed by Belpointe PREP Manager, LLC (our “Manager”), an affiliate of our sponsor, Belpointe, LLC (our “Sponsor”). Subject to the oversight of our board of directors (our “Board”), our Manager is responsible for managing our affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on our behalf.
Capitalization
We are offering Class A units in our ongoing initial public offering (our “Primary Offering”) directly to investors. Our Primary Offering is a “best efforts” offering and we undertake closings on a rolling basis.
We set our Primary Offering price at $ per Class A unit. No later than the first quarter following the December 31, 2022 year end, and every quarter thereafter, we plan to calculate our net asset value (“NAV”) within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter (the “Determination Date”). If our NAV increases above or decreases below the price per Class A unit as stated in our prospectus, we will adjust the Primary Offering price, effective as of the first business day following its public announcement. The adjusted Primary Offering price will be equal to our adjusted NAV as of the Determination Date (rounded to the nearest dollar) divided by the number of Class A Units outstanding on the Determination Date.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited and may not include year-end adjustments necessary to make them comparable to audited results. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for any other interim period or for the entire year.
Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portion of members’ capital (deficit) in controlled subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented in noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
| 5 |
We have evaluated our economic interest in entities to determine if they are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and whether the entities should be consolidated. An entity is a VIE if it has any one of the following characteristics: (i) the entity does not have enough equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (ii) the at-risk equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights. The distinction between a VIE and other entities is based on the nature and amount of the equity investment and the rights and obligations of the equity investors. Fixed price purchase and renewal options within a lease, as well as certain decision-making rights within a loan or joint-venture agreement, can cause us to consider an entity a VIE. Limited partnerships and other similar entities that operate as a partnership will be considered VIEs unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participation rights.
Significant judgment is required to determine whether a VIE should be consolidated. We review all agreements and contractual arrangements to determine whether (i) we or another party have any variable interests in an entity, (ii) the entity is considered a VIE, and (iii) which variable interest holder, if any, is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether a party (a) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (b) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The following table presents the financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively (amounts in thousands):

An interest in a VIE requires reconsideration when an event occurs that was not originally contemplated. At each reporting period we will reassess whether there are any events that require us to reconsider our determination of whether an entity is a VIE and whether it should be consolidated.
| 6 |
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jump Start Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”). Under Section 107 of the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies are permitted to use an extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company, or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B). By electing to extend the transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, these consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the consolidated financial statements of companies that comply with public company effective dates.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of amounts required to be reserved pursuant to contractual obligations and lender agreements for debt service. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets to the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows (amounts in thousands):

Risks and Uncertainties
Demand for multifamily and mixed-use rental properties is subject to uncertainty as a result of a number of factors, including, among others, increasing interest rates, higher rates of inflation, ongoing supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, and the continuing impact of COVID-19. The potential effect of these and other factors presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our future performance and financial results, including the potential to negatively impact our costs of operations, our financing arrangements, the value of our investments, and the laws, regulations, and government and regulatory policies applicable to us. We are closely monitoring the potential impact of these and other factors on all aspects of our business.

Note 8 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e., the exit price).
We categorize our financial instruments, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
| 13 |
Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs).
Level 3 – Valuation generated from model-based techniques that use inputs that are significant and unobservable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the instrument or valuations that require significant management judgment or estimation.
The
carrying value of our loans receivable totaled $
We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities had fair values that approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Note 9 – Members’ Capital (Deficit)
Our Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (our “Operating Agreement”) generally authorizes our Board to issue an unlimited number of units and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to such units for consideration or for no consideration and on the terms and conditions as determined by our Board, in its sole discretion, in most cases without the approval of our members.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (our “Annual Report”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2022, a copy of which may be accessed here. As discussed in the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” included our Annual Report.
Overview
We are the first and only publicly traded qualified opportunity fund listed on a national securities exchange. We are a Delaware limited liability company formed on January 24, 2020, and we operate in a manner that will allow us to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We are focused on identifying, acquiring, developing or redeveloping and managing commercial real estate located within qualified opportunity zones. At least 90% of our assets consist of qualified opportunity zone property. We qualified as a qualified opportunity fund beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2020. Because we are a qualified opportunity fund certain of our investors are eligible for favorable capital gains tax treatment on their investments.
All of our assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, one or more of our Operating Companies, either directly or indirectly through their subsidiaries. We are externally managed by Belpointe PREP Manager, LLC (our “Manager”), which is an affiliate of our sponsor, Belpointe, LLC (our “Sponsor”).
On September 30, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective our registration statement on Form S-11, as amended (File No. 333-255424) (the “Registration Statement”), registering up to $750,000,000 in our Class A units on a continuous basis, as part of our ongoing initial public offering (the “Primary Offering”), at an initial price equal to $100.00 per Class A unit.
Our Transactions with Belpointe REIT, Inc.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), we conducted an offer to exchange (the “Offer”) each outstanding share of common stock (the “Common Stock”), of Belpointe REIT, Inc. (“Belpointe REIT”) validly tendered in the Offer for 1.05 of our Class A units, with any fractional Class A units rounded up to the nearest whole unit (the “Transaction Consideration”). The Offer was completed on September 14, 2021.
Following the Offer, and in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, Belpointe REIT converted from a corporation into a limited liability company (the “Conversion”) named BREIT, LLC (“BREIT”). In the Conversion each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted into a limited liability company interest (an “Interest”) in BREIT. The Conversion was completed on October 1, 2021.
Following the Conversion, and in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, BREIT merged with and into BREIT Merger, LLC (“BREIT Merger”), our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each outstanding Interest was converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration. The Merger was completed on October 12, 2021.
| 16 |
Prior to and in connection with the Offer and Merger, we entered into a series of loan transactions with Belpointe REIT, whereby Belpointe REIT advanced us an aggregate of $74.0 million evidenced by a series of secured promissory notes (the “Secured Notes”) bearing interest at an annual rate of 0.14%, due and payable on December 31, 2021, and secured by all of our assets. Upon consummation of the Merger, BREIT Merger acquired the Secured Notes as successor in interest to Belpointe REIT and, effective October 12, 2021, we entered into a Release and Cancellation of Indebtedness agreement with BREIT Merger pursuant to the terms of which BREIT Merger cancelled the Secured Notes and discharged us from all obligations to repay the principal and any accrued interest on the Secured Notes.
Our Business Outlook
While market conditions for multifamily and mixed-use rental properties have remained strong over the past several quarters, future economic conditions and the demand for multifamily and mixed-use rental properties are subject to uncertainty as a result of a number of factors, including, among others, increasing interest rates, higher rates of inflation, ongoing supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, and the continuing impact of COVID-19. The potential effect of these and other factors presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our future performance and financial results, including the potential to negatively impact our costs of operations, our financing arrangements, the value of our investments, and the laws, regulations and governmental and regulatory policies applicable to us. As a result, our past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Given the evolving nature of these factors, the extent to which they may impact our future performance and financial results will depend on future developments which remain highly uncertain and, as a result, at this time we are unable to estimate the impact that these factors may have on our future financial results. Our Manager continuously reviews our investment and financing strategies for optimization and to reduce our risk in the face of the fluidity of these and other factors.

900 First Avenue North (“900 First”) is a parcel of land with a two-tenant retail building, located in St. Petersburg, Florida, which we acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $2.5 million, inclusive of transaction costs. 900 First will remain a two-tenant retail building and we have taken the additional development rights and added them to 902-1020 First.

1900 Fruitville Road – Sarasota Florida – 1900 Fruitville Road is a 1.205-acre site, consisting of a retail building and parking lot located in Sarasota, Florida, which we acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $4.7 million, inclusive of transaction costs.

As part of our acquisition of 900 8th Avenue South, on February 24, 2021, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of our Operating Company and an unaffiliated third party (the “JV Partner”) entered into a limited liability company agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) for BPOZ 900 Eighth QOZB, LLC (the “BPOZ 900 Eighth QOZB”), an indirect holding company for 900 8th Avenue South. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the JV Partner assigned the purchase and sale agreement for 900 8th Avenue South together with a previously paid property deposit of $0.4 million to BPOZ 900 Eighth QOZB in exchange for the JV Partner’s deemed initial capital contribution of $0.2 million and a promissory note (the “900 Eighth Promissory Note”) from 900 Eighth, LP, the direct holding company for 900 8th Avenue South, in the amount of $0.2 million. The 900 Eighth Promissory Note earned interest at the greater of (i) 1% per annum, or (ii) the short-term adjusted applicable federal rate for the current month for purposes of Section 1288(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and was repaid in full in April 2022.

We currently anticipate that Nashville No. 2 will be redeveloped into an approximately 412-apartment home community consisting of one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments. The buildings will have a fitness center, game room, co-working spaces, outdoor heated saltwater swimming pool, riverfront courtyards and rooftop terraces as well as a leasing office.

Upon closing, the building was leased to the seller through November 2022, with the ability to continue month to month thereafter.

A portion of the aggregate purchase of 1991 Main was funded by a $10.8 million secured loan from First Foundation Bank (the “Acquisition Loan”). On April 22, 2022 we repaid the Acquisition Loan in full.
We currently anticipate that 1991 Main will be redeveloped into an approximately 418-apartment home community consisting of one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments, and four-bedroom townhome-style penthouse apartments, with approximately 51,000 square feet of retail space located on the first level. We anticipate that 1991 Main will consist of two high-rise buildings with 7-stories in the front and 10-stories in the rear, and approximately 721 parking spaces including 590 from an existing parking garage, currently subject to a parking garage easement agreement, 104 new underground spaces, and 27 new street level spaces.
| 18 |
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we entered into a construction management agreement for the redevelopment of 1991 Main. The construction management agreement contains terms and conditions that are customary for a project of this type and will be subject to a guaranteed maximum price. We currently anticipate that the remaining funding for construction and soft costs associated with the redevelopment will be a minimum of $209.9 million, and are building to an unlevered yield of greater than 6%. The redevelopment is currently under construction and we expect to begin leasing units in the fourth quarter of 2023, with construction completed by the second quarter of 2024.
901-909 Central Avenue North – St. Petersburg, Florida – 901-909 Central Avenue North is a 0.129-acre site consisting of a fully leased single-story 5,328 gross square foot retail/office building comprised of 4 units located in St. Petersburg, Florida, which we acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $2.6 million, inclusive of transaction costs.

We currently anticipate that 497-501 Middle will be developed into an approximately 250-apartment home community and that amenities will include a leasing office, clubhouse with a demonstration kitchen, fitness center, game room, study/lounge area, meeting rooms, and an outside AstroTurf meadow.
Investments in Commercial Real Estate Loans
Norpointe Secured Loan – On January 3, 2022, through an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, we provided a commercial mortgage loan in the principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Norpointe Loan”) to Norpointe, LLC (“Norpointe”), an affiliate of our Chief Executive Officer. Norpointe is the owner of certain real property located at 41 Wolfpit Avenue, Norwalk, Connecticut 06851 (the “Norpointe Property”). The Norpointe Loan was evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate of 5.0%, due and payable on December 31, 2022, and was secured by a first mortgage lien on the Norpointe Property. Given our excess cash on hand as of the year ended December 31, 2021, management viewed the Norpointe transaction as an opportunity to earn a strong rate of return on that cash by making a low risk—due to the low loan-to-value ratio and first priority mortgage interest—short-term loan rather than depositing the funds in a lower yielding account pending investment in future developments.
On June 28, 2022, for purposes of complying with the qualified opportunity fund requirements, we restructured the Norpointe Loan through BPOZ 1000 First QOZB, LLC (“BPOZ 1000”), our indirect majority-owned subsidiary, whereby BPOZ 1000 provided a commercial mortgage loan in the principal amount of $30.0 million (the “QOZB Loan”) to Norpointe. Thereafter, on June 28, 2022, Norpointe repaid the Norpointe Loan in full. The QOZB Loan is evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate of 5.0%, due and payable on June 28, 2023 and is secured by a first mortgage lien on the Norpointe Property.
Visco Secured Loan – On February 23, 2022, through an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, we provided a commercial mortgage loan in the principal amount of $5.0 million (the “Visco Loan”) to Visco Propco, LLC (“Visco”). Visco is the owner of certain real property located at 801 Visco Drive, Nashville, Tennessee 37210 (the “Visco Property”). The Visco Loan is evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate of 6.0%, due and payable on February 18, 2023, and is secured by a first lien deed of trust on the Visco Property.

Revenue
Rental Revenue
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same periods in 2021, rental revenue increased by $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, primarily due to an increase in lease revenues as a result of properties acquired subsequent to June 30, 2021 as well as two operating properties acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Expenses

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, property expenses consisted of management fees, property expenses, real estate taxes, and utilities and insurance expenses incurred in relation to our acquired investments. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 property expenses consisted of property expenses, real estate taxes, and utilities and insurance expenses incurred in relation to our acquired investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, property expenses increased by $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, primarily due to management fees incurred and properties acquired subsequent to June 30, 2021 as well as three properties acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

| 20 |
Other Income (Loss)
Interest Income
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, interest income was $0.5 million and is primarily related to interest earned on the Norpointe Loan of $0.4 million, interest earned on the CMC Loan of $0.1 million, and interest earned on the Visco Loan of $0.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, interest income was $1.1 million and is primarily related to interest earned on the Norpointe Loan of $0.7 million, interest earned on the CMC Loan of $0.2 million, and interest earned on the Visco Loan of $0.1 million. For additional details regarding our commercial real estate loans, see “—Our Investments—Commercial Real Estate Loans.” There was no comparable activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Other Income (Expense)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, other income (expense) primarily relates to tax fees, sales tax in connection with the 1991 Main parking garage easement agreement and interest expense on the 900 Eighth Promissory Note. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, other income (expense) relates to Belpointe PREP’s interest expense on the Secured Notes.
Provision for Income Taxes
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, provision for income taxes relates to taxes incurred (including penalties and interest) in connection with our acquisition of Belpointe REIT. As a result of the Conversion of Belpointe REIT into BREIT, Belpointe REIT was deemed to have been liquidated and its tax year ended on October 1, 2021. Belpointe REIT’s deemed liquidation resulted in a taxable gain for the year ended October 1, 2021. In connection with the Conversion, we filed an extension for the time to file Belpointe REIT’s 2021 tax returns, however, we did not make an estimated payment at that time as we had not yet calculated Belpointe REIT’s 2021 tax liability.
Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the share of earnings generated in entities we consolidate in which we do not own 100% of the equity.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are to fund our investments, including construction and development costs, pay our offering and operating fees and expenses, make distributions to the holders of our units and pay interest on any outstanding indebtedness that we incur.
Our offering and operating fees and expenses include, among other things, legal, audit and valuation fees and expenses, federal and state filing fees, SEC, FINRA and NYSE American filing fees, printing expenses, administrative fees, transfer agent fees, marketing and distribution fees, the management fee that we pay to our Manager, and fees and expenses related to acquiring, financing, appraising, and managing our commercial real estate properties. We do not have office or personnel expenses as we do not have any employees.
Where our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, have funded, and in the future if they continue to fund, our liquidity and capital resource needs by advancing us offering and operating fees and expenses, we reimburse our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, pursuant to the terms of our management agreement and employee and cost sharing agreement. Fees payable and expenses reimbursable to our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, may be paid, at the election of the recipient, in cash, by issuance of our Class A Units at the then-current NAV, or through some combination of the foregoing. There were no organization or Primary Offering costs incurred by our Manager and its affiliates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, incurred organization and Primary Offering expenses of $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, incurred operating expenses of $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, on our behalf. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, incurred operating expenses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, on our behalf.
A portion of the initial acquisition costs of 1991 Main were funded by an Acquisition Loan payable in consecutive monthly payments of interest only, with the outstanding principal balance plus any accrued and unpaid interest due and payable on May 6, 2022. The Acquisition Loan bore interest at a fixed annual rate of 4.75% and was guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer. The Acquisition Loan, including outstanding interest of less than $0.1 million, was repaid in full on April 22, 2022. For additional details regarding our acquisition of 1991 Main and the Acquisition Loan, see “—Our Investments—Investments in Multifamily and Mixed-Use Rental Properties—1991 Main Street - Sarasota Florida.”
| 21 |
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our indirect wholly owned subsidiary entered into a construction management agreement for the redevelopment of 1991 Main. The construction management agreement contains terms and conditions that are customary for a project of this type and will be subject to guaranteed maximum price. As of June 30, 2022, we had an unfunded capital commitment of $2.5 million under the terms of this agreement. We currently anticipate that the remaining funding for construction and soft costs associated with the redevelopment will be a minimum of $209.9 million.
We expect to obtain the liquidity and capital resources that we need over the short and long-term from the proceeds of our Primary Offering and any future offerings that we may conduct, from the advancement of reimbursable fees and expenses by our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, from secured or unsecured financings from banks and other lenders and from any undistributed funds from operations. For additional details regarding our Primary Offering, see “Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Use of Proceeds from Registered Sales of Securities.”
We currently anticipate that our available capital resources, including the proceeds from our Primary Offering and the proceeds from any construction or other loans that we may incur, when combined with cash flow generated from our operations, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements over the next 12 months and beyond.
Leverage
We employ leverage in order to provide more funds available for investment. We believe that careful use of conservatively structured leverage will help us to achieve our diversification goals and potentially enhance the returns on our investments.
Our targeted aggregate property-level leverage, excluding any debt at the Company level or on assets under development or redevelopment, after we have acquired a substantial portfolio of stabilized commercial real estate, is between 50-70% of the greater of the cost (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves) or fair market value of our assets. During the period when we are acquiring, developing and redeveloping our investments, we may employ greater leverage on individual assets. An example of property-level leverage is a mortgage loan secured by an individual property or portfolio of properties incurred or assumed in connection with our acquisition of such property or portfolio of properties. An example of debt at the Company level is a line of credit obtained by us or our Operating Companies.
Our Manager may from time to time modify our leverage policy in its discretion in light of then-current economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market values of our assets, general conditions in the market for debt and equity securities, growth and acquisition opportunities or other factors. There is no limit on the amount we may borrow with respect to any individual property or portfolio.
Cash Flows
The following table provides a breakdown of the net change in our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (amounts in thousands):
| Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | |||||||
| Cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities | $ | (2,954 | ) | $ | 248 | |||
| Cash flows used in investing activities | (52,867 | ) | (30,127 | ) | ||||
| Cash flows provided by financing activities | 12,007 | 39,000 | ||||||
| Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | (43,814 | ) | $ | 9,121 | |||
As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled approximately $148.5 million and $15.7 million, respectively.
Cash flows used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily relates to the payment of management fees and employee cost sharing expenses as well as payments for legal, marketing, and accounting fees. These outflows were partially offset by interest received on our Norpointe Loan and CMC Loan during the period. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relates to operating properties acquired.
| 22 |
Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relate primarily to funding of loans receivable in addition to funding costs for our development properties and investments in real estate. These outflows were partially offset by inflows from the repayment of the CMC Loan during the period as well as cash acquired as part of the acquisition of CMC (Note 4). Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relates to three properties acquired during the period as well as development costs incurred.
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily relates to net proceeds received from the Primary Offering partially offset by the repayment of the Acquisition Loan. Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 relates to Secured Notes funded by Belpointe REIT.
Critical Accounting Policies
The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
Our significant accounting policies are described in “Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to those disclosed in “Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (our “Annual Report”), a copy of which may be accessed here.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and as a result are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective controls system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
| 23 |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our “internal control over financial reporting,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2022, neither we nor any of our subsidiaries were subject to any material legal proceedings nor were we aware of any material legal proceedings threatened against us or any of our subsidiaries.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, a copy of which may be accessed here. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report and be aware that these risk factors and other information may not describe every risk facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Securities
In connection with our formation, on February 11, 2020, we issued 100 common units representing all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of the Company to our Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000.00. No sales commission or other consideration was paid in connection with the sale. The offer and sale was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof, as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering. Effective October 30, 2020, our Sponsor sold one common unit to Belpointe Capital Management, LLC, an affiliate of our Sponsor, for an aggregate purchase price of $100.00, in reliance upon the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by a person other than an issuer, underwriter or dealer not involving any public offering.
Effective September 13, 2021, we (i) amended and restated our Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement, (ii) reclassified all of our outstanding common units into an equivalent number of Class A units, and (iii) issued 100,000 Class B units and one Class M unit to our Manager. The Class B units were issued in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered by the Manager pursuant to the terms of our management agreement, and the Class M unit was issued in furtherance of the power and authority delegated to the Manager under the terms of the management agreement. No sales commission or other consideration was paid in connection with the issuance of the Class B units or the Class M unit. The issuance of the Class B units and Class M unit was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.
As of June 30, 2022, we have not sold any other equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act.
Use of Proceeds from Registered Sales of Securities
On September 30, 2021, the Registration Statement covering our Primary Offering of up to $750,000,000 of Class A units was declared effective by the SEC. We set our initial offering price at $100.00 per Class A unit. No later than the first quarter following the December 31, 2022 year end, and every quarter thereafter, we plan to calculate our net asset value (“NAV”) within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter (the “Determination Date”). If our NAV increases above or decreases below the price per Class A unit as stated in our prospectus we will adjust the offering price effective as of the first business day following its public announcement. The adjusted offering price will be equal to our adjusted NAV as of the Determination Date (rounded to the nearest dollar) divided by the number of Class A units outstanding on the Determination Date.
| 24 |
Our Board, taking into consideration factors such as the investments we hold and the timing of our ability to generate cash flows, may determine that it is appropriate for us to begin calculating NAV on a quarterly basis prior to the first quarter following the December 31, 2022 year end. We will file a prospectus supplement with the SEC if we determine to calculate NAV prior to the first quarter following the December 31, 2022 year end and prospectus supplements disclosing quarterly determinations of our NAV per Class A unit for each fiscal quarter thereafter. If a material event occurs in between quarterly updates of NAV that would cause our NAV to change by 10% or more from the most recently disclosed NAV, we will disclose the updated price and the reason for the change in prospectus supplement as promptly as reasonably practicable.
From the period of October 7, 2021, the date of the first closing held in connection with our Primary Offering, through December 31, 2021, we issued 2,132,039 Class A units in our Primary Offering, raising net offering proceeds of $212.6 million. For the six months ending June 30, 2022, we issued 31,300 Class A units in connection with our Primary Offering, raising net offering proceeds of $2.8 million. Together with the gross proceeds raised in Belpointe REIT’s prior offerings, as of June 30, 2022, we have raised aggregate gross offering cash proceeds of $335.3 million.
The following tables summarize certain information about the Primary Offering proceeds and our use of proceeds, including direct or indirect payments to our directors, officers, affiliates or to any person owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities as of June 30, 2022:
