Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) Nature of Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Basis of Presentation
CapTerra Financial Group, Inc. (CPTA or the Company) was incorporated under the laws of
Colorado on April 22, 2003. The Company is a co-developer, principally as a financier, for
build-to-suit real estate development projects for retailers who sign long-term leases for use
of the property. Land acquisition and project construction operations are conducted through the
Companys subsidiaries. The Company creates each project such that it will generate income from
the placement of the construction loan, rental income during the period in which the property is
held, and the capital appreciation of the facility upon sale. Affiliates, subsidiaries and
management of the Company will develop the construction and permanent financing for the benefit
of the Company.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from real estate sales under the full accrual method. Under the
full accrual method, profit may be realized in full when real estate is sold, provided (1) the
profit is determinable and (2) the earnings process is virtually complete (the Company is not
obligated to perform significant activities after the sale to earn the profit). The Company
recognizes revenue from its real estate sales transactions on the closing date.
The Company also generates minimal rental and management fee income between the periods when a
real estate project is occupied through the closing date on which the project is sold. In
addition, the Company recognizes interest revenue on projects that are funded up front. Rental
income and management fee income is recognized in the month earned.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates have been made by management with respect to the fair values utilized for
calculating the Companys impairments on real estate projects. For the quarter ended June 30,
2009 we recognized $-0- in impairment losses and $595,868 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
6
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts
receivables and payables. The carrying values of assets and liabilities approximate fair value
due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of notes payable and debt issued by
financial institutions approximate fair value as of June 30, 2009 due to the notes carrying
variable interest rates. The carrying value of notes payable to related parties cannot be
determined due to the nature of these agreements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On September 15, 2009, the company will adopt FASB 168, Statement of Financial Accounting
(FASB 168 replaces FASB statement 162.) The FASB Accounting Standards Codification
(Codification) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. On the
effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC
accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature,
not included in the Codification, will become non-authoritative. This Statement is effective
for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
As of June 15, 2009 FASB 165, Subsequent Events establishes principles and requirements for
stating subsequent events. A subsequent event consists of events that provide additional
information of a condition that is already being reported or of an event that does not exist as
the balance sheet date. The latter event(s) are limited to certain event types that are
outlined in their respective FASB or FASB 165. Certain events must be disclosed so as to not
have financial statements that are misleading. For either situation management will evaluate
and determine the potential disclosure of the event(s) through the date the financial statements
are issued.
We have adopted SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations and SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, in the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year. As
of June 30, 2009, there has been no material impact related to the pronouncements on our
consolidated financial statements. Further information on these accounting pronouncements is
located in our 2008 Form 10K.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 157, which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for certain
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed
at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-2
did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and
Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying
Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP FAS 157-4). FSP FAS 157-4 provides guidance on
estimating fair value when market activity has decreased and on identifying transactions that
are not orderly. Additionally, entities are required to disclose in interim and annual periods
the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This FSP is effective for
interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. As the requirements under this FSP are
consistent with our current practice, the implementation of this standard did not have a
significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining
Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entitys Own stock (EITF
No. 07-5). EITF No. 07-5 provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial
instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entitys own stock. EITF No. 07-5 applies to
any freestanding financial instrument or embedded feature that has all of the characteristics of
a derivative or freestanding instrument that is potentially settled in an entitys own stock. To
meet the definition of indexed to own stock, an instruments contingent exercise provisions
must not be based on (a) an observable market, other than the market for the issuers stock (if
applicable), or (b) an observable index, other than an index calculated or measured solely by
reference to the issuers own operations, and the variables that could affect the settlement
amount must be inputs to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed forward or option on equity shares.
The adoption of EITF 07-5 did not impact the Companys consolidated financial
statements.
(2) Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring
losses, has used significant cash in support of its operating activities, has a limited
operating history and is reliant upon funding commitments with two significant shareholders.
These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going
concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern. The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. The Company plans to generate the necessary cash flows with
increased sales revenue over the next 12 months. However, should the Companys sales not provide
sufficient cash flow, the Company has plans to raise additional working capital through debt
and/or equity financings. There is no assurance the Company will be successful in producing
increased sales revenues or obtaining additional funding through debt and equity financings.
7
The Company currently relies on its majority shareholder, GDBA Investments, LLC (GDBA), and
another significant shareholder, BOCO Investments, LLC (BOCO), to provide a substantial amount
of its debt and equity financing. The Company expects to rely upon both GDBA and BOCO for
funding commitments in the foreseeable future.
(3) Real Estate Held for Sale
When a project is completed and a certificate of occupancy is issued, the assets for the project
under land held for sale and construction in progress are reclassified and combined into real
estate held for sale. In cases where we own raw land and have made the business decision not to
move forward on development, the property is also reclassified into real estate held for sale.
As of June 30, 2009 we had ten properties classified as real estate held for sale totaling
$16,146,237 in costs, four of which representing a total cost of $9,292,932 were completed
projects and six of which representing a total cost of $6,853,305 were raw land currently being
marketed for sale. These properties are located in Arizona, Colorado, California, Florida,
South Carolina and Utah.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for
income tax purposes.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the realization of future taxable
income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management
considers past history, the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected
future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. A valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. It is the full intention of the Company,
that any carryback and carryforward amounts will be utilized against future taxable income. The
vast majority of our NOL carryforwards will expire through the year 2028. As of June 30, 2009,
the Company has a valuation allowance of $7,889,000.
(8) Notes Payable
Vectra Bank Senior Credit Facility:
On April 25, 2005, we entered into a $10 million senior credit facility with Vectra Bank of
Colorado (Vectra Bank). This commitment permits us to fund construction notes for
build-to-suit real estate projects for national and regional chain retailers. The financing is
facilitated through a series of promissory notes. The facility matured on May 31, 2009 and we
elected not to renew it. There were no balances or activities under this facility during the
quarter that ended June 30, 2009.
United Western Bank Senior Credit Facility
On May 7, 2007, we entered into a $25 million senior credit facility with United Western Bank.
This commitment permits us to fund construction notes for build-to-suit real estate projects for
national and regional chain retailers. The financing is facilitated through a series of
promissory notes. Each note is issued for individual projects under the facility and must be
underwritten and approved by United Western Bank and has a term of 12 months with one (1)
allowable extension not to exceed 6 months subject to approval. Interest is funded from an
interest reserve established with each construction loan. The interest rate on each note is
equal to Prime rate minus 50 basis points Each note under the facility is for an amount, as
determined by United Western Bank, not to exceed the lesser of 75% of the appraised value of the
real property under the approved appraisal for the project or 75% of the project costs.
Principal on each note is due at maturity, with no prepayment penalty. United Western Bank
retains a First Deed of Trust on each property financed.
We did not renew this facility on May 7, 2008 when it matured, although notes issued while the
facility existed were still subject to their full one-year maturity and extension provisions as
prescribed under the agreement.
As of June 30, 2009, we had two outstanding notes originally issued under this facility. One
note had a principal balance of $2,167,393 as of June 30, 2009 and matures on December 1, 2009.
Total accrued interest on this note through June 30, 2009 was $148,013. The other note had a
principal balance of $3,612,727 as of June 30, 2009 and matured on June 24, 2009. We are
currently working with United Western Bank to extend the note. Total accrued interest on this
note through June 30, 2009 was $132,004.

(9) Impairment of Assets
We invest significantly in real estate assets. Accordingly, our policy on asset impairment is
considered a critical accounting estimate. Management periodically evaluates the Companys
property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that a
possible impairment in the carrying values of the assets has occurred. As part of this
evaluation, and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144), the Company
records the carrying value of the property at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated
fair value, less estimated selling costs. The amount the Company will ultimately realize on
these asset sales could differ from the amount recorded in the financial statements. The Company
engages real estate brokers to assist in determining the estimated selling price or when
external opinions are not available uses their own market knowledge. The estimated selling costs
are based on the Companys experience with similar asset sales. The Company records an
impairment charge and writes down an assets carrying value if the carrying value exceeds the
estimated selling price less costs to sell. In the Companys valuation of its impairment on
real estate, level 2 inputs were utilized to determine the fair value of those assets.
We recognized $-0- of impairments for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
(10) Subsequent Events
SFAS 165 requires the Company to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been
evaluated, as well as whether that date is the date the financial statements were issued or the
date the financial statements were available to be issued. The Company has evaluated subsequent
events through August 14, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued, and has
determined no other subsequent events to be reported.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in
conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This item contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ
materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain
forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations,
estimates, and projections about our industry, management beliefs, and certain assumptions made
by our management. Words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes,
seeks, estimates, variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify
such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and
are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict;
therefore, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in any such
forward-looking statements. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update
publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events,
or otherwise. However, readers should carefully review the risk factors set forth herein and in
other reports and documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, particularly the Annual Reports on Form 10-K and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.
Overview and History
HISTORY
We were founded in 2003 as a development partner, providing 100% financing for build-to-suit,
small-box retail development projects throughout the United States. Offering 100% financing for
our development partners consisted of providing equity or subordinated debt for approximately
twenty-five percent of a projects cost and utilizing our senior debt facilities to provide a
construction loan for the other seventy-five percent of the projects cost. While we provided
the capital for the project, our development partners responsibility was to obtain a lease,
develop, market and sell the project once complete. In exchange for providing all of the
capital, we took a controlling interest in the project and received 50% of the profits when the
project was sold, with a minimum profit threshold for us in order to protect our downside.
In order to facilitate growth, we focused on building our Companys infrastructure, particularly
in the areas of deal generation, underwriting, and operations, as well as in finance and
accounting. Early on, we implemented a growth strategy of creating a distributed sales force
throughout the United States focused on creating relationships with developers and qualifying
deals for us to finance. Once deals were generated, it was estimated that they would be
developed and sold within seven to ten months. At that point revenues would be generated and
capital returned to be recycled into new projects.
Beginning in March 2008, with the changing of our management team, we re-assessed our business
model and drew the following conclusions: 1) Our development partners had no hard investment in
the projects and were not properly incentivized to continue projects when expected profitability
fell; 2) Our investment program and marketing efforts did not cater to high quality sponsors
with whom we could generate profitable, repeat business; 3) While successful projects proved to
be highly profitable, portfolio experience demonstrated that downside risk was larger than
originally anticipated; 4) While there are many transactions that worked within our target
market, we were unlikely to meet our growth objectives given the limited scope of our
addressable market; and 5) Our corporate infrastructure and cost structure was too large for the
production levels that we were achieving.
In the second quarter 2008, we began to plan to significantly expand the scope of our business
model in order to take advantage of changed market opportunities and more efficiently and
profitably deploy capital going forward. This expanded model includes broadening our target
property types beyond small-box, single-tenant retail to include office, industrial,
multi-family, multi-tenant retail, hospitality and select land transactions. In addition, we
have expanded our financial product offerings to focus on preferred equity, mezzanine debt and
high yield bridge loans.
Our expanded model focuses on investing in higher-quality, more experienced developers, owners
and operators. These target partners typically have equity capital to invest and are able to
secure senior debt for their projects, but require additional capital, particularly in todays
capital market environment, to bridge the gap between senior debt and their available equity. We
seek to fill this gap with preferred equity or mezzanine debt. These structures generally
require our partner to provide the senior debt as well as have some equity invested in order to
prevent us from being in a first-loss position, which will allow us to invest in larger
transactions, with higher quality partners, at lower risk but higher risk-adjusted returns than
transactions in which we have previously invested.
12
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
While we had some success in deploying capital under our new approach, our slower than expected
disposition of our existing properties has created investment capital constraints that has
delayed the full implementation of our growth strategy. In January 2009, we shifted our
immediate focus to capital preservation and portfolio management. Under this strategy we have
dramatically decreased our operating capital needs and are focusing on the disposition of our
current portfolio in a manner that maximizes our shareholder value. As we sell existing
properties and recoup invested capital, we will actively pursue new investment opportunities and
will then shift our focus back to the growth strategy we identified last year.
Our principal business address is 1440 Blake Street, Suite 310, Denver, CO 80202
We have not been subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
Results of Operations
The following discussion involves our results of operations for the quarters ending June 30,
2009 and June 30, 2008. Our revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were $516,105 compared
to $119,788 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. We sold one project for the quarter ended June
30, 2009 totaling $250,000 compared to no project sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. We
will continue to recognize sales revenue as we sell our current properties, all of which are
currently classified available for sale; however, given current real estate market conditions
we can not accurately predict the timing of these sales. Rental income for the quarter ended
June 30, 2009 was $92,621 compared to $119,788 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. We had
interest income on notes receivable totaling $173,484 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009
compared to $-0- for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. We believe these fees should remain
fairly stable throughout 2009.
We recognize cost of sales on projects during the period in which they are sold. We had $256,754
of cost of sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Since we had no sales for the quarter
ended June 30, 2008 we have no cost of sales for that same period. Cost of sales going
forward will continue to be correlated with the timing of our property sales.
Selling, general and administrative costs were $446,586 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009
compared to selling, general and administrative costs of $676,633 for the quarter ended June 30,
2008. This decrease is largely attributable to several cost cutting measures including
implemented during the first quarter of 2009, which included downsizing our workforce and moving
our corporate offices. While we realized some effect of these cost cutting measures during the
quarter ended June 30, 2009, much of the cost savings will be realized in the second half of the
year and we anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expense will decrease
further moving forward.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009 we recognized no impairment charges. We recognized
$595,868 of impairment expense for the period ended June 30, 2008. We believe our balance sheet
correctly reflects the current fair value of our projects; however, we will continue to test our
properties for impairment on a quarterly basis.
For the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, we recognized a current and deferred tax
asset that was offset by a deferred tax allowance in the same amount.
We had a net loss of $574,579 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of
$3,944,697 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. On June 30, 2008, we converted all convertible
preferred stock to common stock so no dividends have been paid from June 30, 2008 forward.
Our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $2,734,260 compared to $1,310,193 for
the six months ended June 30, 2008. Project sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were
$2,242,151 compared to $1,164,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was due
to additional projects sold during the period. We anticipate project sales will increase over
the next several quarters as we sell current properties available for sale. We had rental income
for the six months ended June 30, 2009 of $190,644 compared to $146,193 for the six months ended
June 30, 2008, which is attributable to having more rent producing properties in the current six
months versus the prior year. We recognized interest income of $301,465 for the six months ended
June 30, 2009 compared to $-0- for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in interest
income was due to our ACCP loan which was originated in October 2008.
Selling, general and administrative costs were $1,019,145 for the six months ended June 30, 2009
compared to $1,364,640 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease is largely
attributable to several cost cutting measures including implemented during the first quarter of
2009, which included downsizing our workforce and moving our corporate offices. While we
realized some effect of these cost cutting measures during the six months ended June 30, 2009,
much of the cost savings will be realized in the second half of the year and we anticipate that
our selling, general and administrative expense will decrease further moving forward.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009 we recognized $115,500 of impairment expense compared
to $595,868 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. We believe our balance sheet correctly
reflects the current fair value of our projects; however, we will continue to impairment test
each of the properties in our portfolio on a yearly basis. We also recognized a conversion
expense of $2,518,750 for the six-months ended June 30, 2008, which was related to the
conversion of subordinated debt and convertible preferred stock into common stock at a price
which was deemed to be below fair value.
13
We had a net loss of $1,413,887 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of
$4,959,454 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. On June 30, 2008, we converted all
convertible preferred stock to common stock so we will not pay a preferred stock dividend going
forward.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents, were $2,175,964 on June 30, 2009 compared to $447,200 on June 30,
2008.
Cash used in operating activities was $602,444 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared
to $3,080,820 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This change was primarily the result of
fewer projects acquired or under construction during the current period. Cash used in operations
should continue to decrease as we sell properties currently held for sale.
Cash provided by investing activities was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to
$216,162 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. We issue promissory notes to our development
partners when we invest earnest money on potential new projects which are retired when we
purchase the land into the subsidiary. In the fourth quarter of 2008 we recognized an allowance
to fully cover all outstanding promissory notes balance as of December 31, 2008. The balance
and allowance remained the same for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Cash provided by financing activities was $394,667 for the six months ended June 30, 2009
compared to $1,276,238 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This change was primarily the
result of fewer projects acquired or under construction during the current period. Cash
provided by financing activities should continue to decrease as we pay down related party notes
associated with property sales.
All of our subordinated debt notes with our two major investors, GDBA and BOCO, mature before
December 31, 2009, including our two $7 million notes that were issued on September 28, 2006
which will mature on September 28, 2009. We are in current discussions with BOCO and GDBA to
extend these notes. There is no assurance that these notes will be renewed or extended or that
the terms will be acceptable to management.
Based on our cash balance and our availability on our Senior Subordinated Notes as of June 30,
2009, we may not have adequate cash available to meet all of our obligations with regard to
operating capital and project equity required over the next twelve months. We will need to sell
some of our existing projects in order to fund our operations for the next twelve months. We
continue to work with our existing investors and are seeking additional investors to secure the
capital required to fund our operations going forward.
In addition, one of our notes that was issued by United Western Bank mature on June 24, 2009.
While we are currently working with the bank to renew the loan it is possible that the renewal
would require a principal reduction of approximately $900,000. Although we believe that we have
an alternative solution that wont require the additional capital outflow, should it be
necessary to make a principal payment of this size, it would have a materially negative impact
on our liquidity and capital resources.
Management continues to assess our capital resources in relation to our ability to fund
continued operations on an ongoing basis. As such, management may seek to access the capital
markets to raise additional capital through the issuance of additional equity, debt or a
combination of both in order to fund our operations and future growth.
As of June 30, 2009, we had $21.25 million in subordinated debt notes that were fully drawn. We
had no availability on our credit lines on June 30, 2009.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We have adopted SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations and SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, in the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year. As
of June 30, 2009, there has been no material impact related to the pronouncements on our
consolidated financial statements. Further information on these accounting pronouncements is
located in our 2008 Form 10K.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 157, which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for certain
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed
at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-2
did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
14
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining
Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entitys Own stock (EITF
No. 07-5). EITF No. 07-5 provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial
instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entitys own stock. EITF No. 07-5 applies to
any freestanding financial instrument or embedded feature that has all of the characteristics of
a derivative or freestanding instrument that is potentially settled in an entitys own stock. To
meet the definition of indexed to own stock, an instruments contingent exercise provisions
must not be based on (a) an observable market, other than the market for the issuers stock (if
applicable), or (b) an observable index, other than an index calculated or measured solely by
reference to the issuers own operations, and the variables that could affect the settlement
amount must be inputs to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed forward or option on equity shares.
The adoption of EITF 07-5 did not impact the Companys consolidated financial
statements.
Seasonality
At this point in our business operations our revenues are not impacted by seasonal demands for
our products or services. As we penetrate our addressable market and enter new geographical
regions, we may experience a degree of seasonality.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On
an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and
various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable
in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different
future conditions.
We believe that the estimates and assumptions that are most important to the portrayal of our
financial condition and results of operations, in that they require subjective or complex
judgments, form the basis for the accounting policies deemed to be most critical to us. These
relate to bad debts, impairment of intangible assets and long lived assets, contractual
adjustments to revenue, and contingencies and litigation. We believe estimates and assumptions
related to these critical accounting policies are appropriate under the circumstances; however,
should future events or occurrences result in unanticipated consequences, there could be a
material impact on our future financial conditions or results of operations.
Our critical accounting policies are estimates and are included in our Annual 10K filed with the
SEC on April 15, 2009.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
None.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on an evaluation of our disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a -15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act),
our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us
in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the
applicable time periods specified by the SECs rules and forms.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our
most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This report does not include an attestation report of the companys registered public accounting
firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Identified in connection with the
evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 240.13a-15 or Rule 240.15d-15 of this chapter that
occurred during the registrants last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrants internal control over financial
reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings, to which we are a party, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
15
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below; and all of the other
information included in this document. Any of the following risks could materially adversely
affect our business, financial condition or operating results and could negatively impact the
value of your investment.
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE. WE WERE UNPROFITABLE FOR OUR TWO
MOST RECENT FISCAL YEAR ENDS.
Our revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 were $4,799,708. We had a net loss of
$14,710,593 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Our revenues for the quarter ended June
30, 2009 were $516,105 compared to revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 of $119,788. We
had a net loss of $574,579 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of
$3,944,697 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. As of June 30, 2009 we have an accumulated
deficit of $23,391,599. We have only completed a limited number of transactions, so it continues
to be difficult for us to accurately forecast our quarterly and annual revenue. However, we use
our forecasted revenue to establish our expense budget. Most of our expenses are fixed in the
short term or incurred in advance of anticipated revenue. As a result, we may not be able to
decrease our expenses in a timely manner to offset any revenue shortfall. We attempt to keep
revenues in line with expenses but cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
BECAUSE WE HAVE RECURRING LOSSES, HAVE USED SIGNIFICANT CASH IN SUPPORT OF OUR OPERATING
ACTIVITIES, HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND ARE RELIANT UPON FUNDING COMMITMENTS WITH TWO
SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS, OUR ACCOUNTANTS HAVE EXPRESSED DOUBTS ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS
A GOING CONCERN.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, our accountants have expressed doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern as a result of recurring losses, the use of significant cash in
support of our operating activities, our limited operating history and our reliance upon funding
commitments with two significant shareholders. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent
upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and
positive cash flow is dependent upon:
|
|
our ability to find suitable real estate projects; and |
|
|
|
our ability to generate sufficient revenues from those projects. |
We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues or other funds
in the future to cover these operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient revenues will cause
us to go out of business.
WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING IN THE FUTURE BUT CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL BE AVAILABLE
TO US.
In order to expand our business, we will continue to need additional capital. To date, we have
been successful in obtaining capital, but we cannot guarantee that additional capital will be
available at all or under sufficient terms and conditions for us to utilize it. Because we have
an ongoing need for capital, we may experience a lack of liquidity in our future operations. We
will need additional financing of some type, which we do not now possess, to fully develop our
business plan. We expect to rely principally upon our ability to raise additional financing, the
success of which cannot be guaranteed. To the extent that we experience a substantial lack of
liquidity, our development in accordance with our business plan may be delayed or indefinitely
postponed, which would have a materially adverse impact on our operations and the investors
investment.
AS A COMPANY WITH LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY, WE ARE INHERENTLY A RISKY INVESTMENT. OUR
OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO OUR ABILITY TO FINANCE REAL ESTATE PROJECTS.
Because we are a company with a limited history, our operations, which consist of real estate
financing of build-to-suite projects for specific national retailers, are subject to numerous
risks. Our operations will depend, among other things, upon our ability to finance real estate
projects and for those projects to be sold. Further, there is the possibility that our proposed
operations will not generate income sufficient to meet operating expenses or will generate
income and capital appreciation, if any, at rates lower than those anticipated or necessary to
sustain the investment. The value of our assets may become impaired by a variety of factors,
which would make it unlikely, if not impossible to profit from the sale of our real estate. We
have already experienced impairments to our assets and may do so in the future. Our operations
may be affected by many factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of these problems, or
a combination thereof, could have a materially adverse effect on our viability as an entity.
WE HAVE A HEAVY RELIANCE ON OUR CURRENT FUNDING COMMITMENTS WITH TWO SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS.
We are currently dependent upon our relationships with GDBA and BOCO. We currently have $7.83
million in outstanding
notes with GDBA and $14.31 million in outstanding notes with BOCO. All of our subordinated debt
notes with these two major investors mature before December 31, 2009, including our two $7
million notes that were issued on September 28, 2006 which will mature on September 28, 2009.
We are in current discussions with BOCO and GDBA to extend these notes. There is no assurance
that these notes will be renewed or extended or that the terms will be acceptable to
management. We would be unable to fund any projects in the foreseeable future, if we lose our
current funding commitment from these shareholders.
16
OUR INDEBTEDNESS UNDER OUR VARIOUS CREDIT FACILITIES ARE SUBSTANTIAL AND COULD LIMIT OUR ABILITY
TO GROW OUR BUSINESS.
As of June 30, 2009, we had total indebtedness under our various credit facilities of
approximately $28.5 million. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For
example, it could:
|
|
increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
|
|
|
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations
to payments on our indebtedness if we do not maintain specified financial
ratios, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow for other purposes;
or |
|
|
|
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business
and the industry in which we operate, thereby placing us at a competitive
disadvantage compare to our competitors that may have less indebtedness. |
Our credit facilities may permit us to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future.
As of June 30, 2009, we had no availability for additional borrowing under our $21.25 million
various credit facilities. If we increase our indebtedness by borrowing under our various credit
facilities or incur other new indebtedness, the risks described above would increase.
In addition, one of our notes that was issued by United Western Bank matured on June 24, 2009.
While we are currently working with the bank to renew the loan it is possible that the renewal
would require a principal reduction of approximately $900,000. Although we believe that we have
an alternative solution that wont require the additional capital outflow, should it be
necessary to make a principal payment of this size, it would have a materially negative impact
on our liquidity and capital resources.
OUR VARIOUS CREDIT FACILITIES HAVE RESTRICTIVE TERMS AND OUR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THESE
TERMS COULD PUT US IN DEFAULT, WHICH WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS.
Our various credit facilities contain a number of significant covenants. These covenants limit
our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things:
|
|
incur additional indebtedness; |
|
|
|
make capital expenditures and other investments above a certain level; |
|
|
|
merge, consolidate or dispose of our assets or the capital stock or assets of any subsidiary; |
|
|
|
pay dividends, make distributions or redeem capital stock in certain circumstances; |
|
|
|
enter into transactions with our affiliates; |
|
|
|
grant liens on our assets or the assets of our subsidiaries; and |
|
|
|
make or repay intercompany loans. |
Our various credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to
meet these financial ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond our control, and we may
not meet those ratios. A breach of any of these restrictive covenants or our inability to comply
with the required financial ratios would result in a default under our various credit facilities
or require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on
our indebtedness. If the creditors accelerate amounts owing under our various credit facilities
because of a default and we are unable to pay such amounts, the creditors have the right to
foreclose on our assets.
WE PAY INTEREST ON A MAJORITY OF OUR CREDIT FACILITIES AT VARIABLE RATES, RATHER THAN FIXED
RATES, WHICH COULD AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY.
All of our credit facilities provide for the payment of interest at variable rates. None of our
credit facilities provide for the payment of interest at fixed rates. We can potentially realize
profitability to the extent that we can borrow at a lower rate of interest and charge a higher
rate of interest in our operations. Because our credit facilities are at variable rates, our
profit margins
could be depressed or even eliminated by rising interest rates on funds we must borrow. Rising
interest rates could have a materially adverse affect on our operations.
17
WE DO NOT HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF BEING ABLE TO SELL PROPERTIES AT A PROFIT
We have only been in business since 2003. We do not have a significant track record and may be
unable to sell properties upon completion. We have already experienced impairments to our assets
of approximately $8,030,002 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and $3,046,196 for the
year ended December 31, 2007 . We may incur additional impairments in the future. We may be
forced to sell properties at a loss. Furthermore, in order to sell properties for a profit, we
may be forced to hold properties for longer periods that we plan, which may require the need for
additional financing sources. Any of these conditions would likely result in reduced operating
profits and could likely strain current funding agreements.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH.
We hope to experience rapid growth which, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our
managerial, operational, and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and
manage growth, we must continue to implement and improve our financial strength and our
operational systems, and expand. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively
manage the expansion of our operations, or that our systems, procedures or controls will be
adequate to support our expanded operations or that we will be able to obtain facilities to
support our growth. Our inability to effectively manage our future growth would have a material
adverse effect on us.
THE MANNER IN WHICH WE FINANCE OUR PROJECTS CREATES THE POSSIBILITY OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
We fund our projects with construction financing obtained through the efforts of our management
and our shareholders, GDBA and BOCO. This arrangement could create a conflict of interest with
respect to such financings. However, there may be an inherent conflict of interest in the
arrangement until such time as we might seek such financings on a competitive basis.
WE HAVE A LACK OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS.
We do not have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors and we cannot
guarantee that our board of directors will have a majority of independent directors in the
future. In the absence of a majority of independent directors, our executive officers, which are
also principal stockholders and directors, could establish policies and enter into transactions
without independent review and approval thereof. This could present the potential for a conflict
of interest between our stockholders and us generally and the controlling officers, stockholders
or directors.
INTENSE COMPETITION IN OUR MARKET COULD PREVENT US FROM DEVELOPING REVENUE AND PREVENT US FROM
ACHIEVING ANNUAL PROFITABILITY.
We provide a defined service to finance real estate projects. The barriers to entry are not
significant. Our service could be rendered noncompetitive or obsolete. Competition from larger
and more established companies is a significant threat and expected to increase. Most of the
companies with which we compete and expect to compete have far greater capital resources, and
many of them have substantially greater experience in real estate development. Our ability to
compete effectively may be adversely affected by the ability of these competitors to devote
greater resources than we can.
THERE ARE POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a
variety of factors, most of which are outside of our control, including: the demand for our
products or services; seasonal trends in financing; the amount and timing of capital
expenditures and other costs relating to the development of our properties; price competition or
pricing changes in the industry; technical or regulatory difficulties; general economic
conditions; and economic conditions specific to our industry. Our quarterly results may also be
significantly impacted by the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or
other matters. Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can
have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among
others, it is likely that our operating results will fall below our expectations or those of
investors in some future quarter.
OUR SUCCESS WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON OUR OPERATING PARTNERS EFFORTS.
Our success will be dependent, to a large extent, upon the efforts of our operating partners in
our various projects. To the extent that these partners, individually or collectively, fail to
develop projects in a timely or cost-effective manner, our profit margins could be depressed or
even eliminated. If we cannot or do not select appropriate partners for our projects, our
profitability and viability will suffer. The absence of one or more partners who develop
projects in a timely or cost-effective manner could have a material, adverse impact on our
operations.
18
OUR SUCCESS WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON OUR MANAGEMENTS EFFORTS.
Our success will be dependent upon the decision making of our directors and executive officers.
These individuals intend to commit as much time as necessary to our business, but this
commitment is no assurance of success. The loss of any or all of these individuals, particularly
James W. Creamer, III, our President, Treasurer and Chief Executive Officer, could have a
material, adverse impact on our operations. We have no written employment agreements with any
officers and directors, including Mr. Creamer. We have not obtained key man life insurance on
the lives of any of these individuals.
THERE IS A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.
Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in our
management affairs. Our articles of incorporation provides, however, that our officers and
directors shall have no liability to our stockholders for losses sustained or liabilities
incurred which arise from any transaction in their respective managerial capacities unless they
violated their duty of loyalty, did engage in intentional misconduct or gross negligence. Our
articles and bylaws also provide for the indemnification by us of the officers and directors
against any losses or liabilities they may incur as a result of the manner in which they operate
our business or conduct the internal affairs.
OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE, AND YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL YOUR SHARES AT OR ABOVE
THE PUBLIC SALE PRICE.
There has been, and continues to be, a limited public market for our common stock. Our common
stock trades on the NASD Bulletin Board. However, an active trading market for our shares have
not, and may never develop or be sustained. If you purchase shares of common stock, you may not
be able to resell those shares at or above the initial price you paid. The market price of our
common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are
beyond our control, including the following:
|
|
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; |
|
|
|
change in financial estimates by securities analysts or our failure to perform in line with such estimates; |
|
|
|
changes in market valuations of other real estate oriented companies, particularly those that market
services such as ours; |
|
|
|
announcements by us or our competitors of significant innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships,
joint ventures or capital commitments; |
|
|
|
introduction of technologies or product enhancements that reduce the need for our services; |
|
|
|
the loss of one or more key customers; and |
|
|
|
departures of key personnel. |
Further, we cannot assure that an investor will be able to liquidate his investment without
considerable delay, if at all. The factors which we have discussed in this document may have a
significant impact on the market price of our common stock. It is also possible that the
relatively low price of our common stock may keep many brokerage firms from engaging in
transactions in our common stock.
As restrictions on the resale of our common stock end, the market price of our stock could drop
significantly if the holders of restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as
intending to sell them.
BUYING A LOW-PRICED PENNY STOCK SUCH AS OURS IS RISKY AND SPECULATIVE.
Our shares are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules
of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales
practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other
than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of
$5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding
$200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse, or in transactions not recommended by a
broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a
suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchasers written agreement prior
to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny
stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer
quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons,
and deliver certain disclosures required by the SEC. Consequently, the penny stock rules may
affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also
affect your ability to sell any of our shares you may own in the public markets.
19
WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK.
We have not paid any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and it is unlikely that we
will pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Earnings, if any,
that we may realize will be retained in the business for further development and expansion.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
On May 12, 2009, we revised two Warrant agreements which we previously issued to BOCO
Investments, LLC. The revised Warrant agreements deleted previous language which permitted
adjustments to the exercise price of the warrants to be issued to BOCO Investments, LLC. under
the two Warrant agreements upon the issuance of additional rights or warrants by us to third
parties. Other than the deletion of this language, all other terms and conditions of the two
Warrant agreements remain the same.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
None.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
None.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
