Fiscal 2021 Financial Overview & Results of Operations  
Operations  
Total revenue from operations for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, was $970.5 million compared to $27.5 million 
for the same period of 2020.  The increase in revenue was the result of the Company participating in the Payment 
Protection Program (PPP) administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The Company earned fees 
from the program totaling approximately $930.0 million. The Company has taken the full amount of fees earned 
during the period from the program into income.  The operating revenue for the period was $40.5 million compared 
to $27.1 million for the same period of 2020. The increase was from increased home sales and portfolio growth.  Net 
operating income before taxes and non-controlling interest for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, was $320.2 
million compared to $3.5 million for the same period of 2020.   
Net Earnings Per Share  
Net earnings per share from operations before taxes and after non-controlling interests for the nine months ended July 
31, 2021, was $53.54 compared to $0.51 for the nine months ended July 31, 2020.  The increase in the earnings per 
share was primarily due to the Company’s participation in the PPP lending program. 
 
 

 
  
 
 
Results of Operations 
Comparison of the Three Months Ended July 31, 2021, to the Three Months Ended July 31, 2020 
The following table sets forth selected consolidated operating results stated in dollars and percentage from the prior 
year:  
 
Total Revenues 
Total property sales revenue from the sale of recently rehabilitated homes was $6.1 million for the quarter ended July 
31, 2021, compared to $ 7.1 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2020.  Sales during the third quarter of 2021 were 
relatively flat compared to the quarter ended July 31, 2020, due to lower homes being available for sale during the 
period. 
Total interest income revenue generated from the Company’s mortgage note receivable portfolio and from the PPP 
loan program was $14.9 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2021, compared to $3.1 million for the quarter ended 
July 31, 2020.  The increase was the result of growth in the total mortgage note receivable portfolio during the period 
and the addition of PPP loans to the portfolio.  The Company funded approximately $6.1 billion in PPP loans 
generating an annual interest rate of 1%. 
Other revenues include processing fees the company earned from originating PPP loans during the quarter ended July 
31, 2021.  The increase in revenues for processing fees was the result of the Company participation in the Payment 
Protection Program (PPP) administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The Company earned fees 
from the program totaling approximately $465.6 million for the quarter. The Company has taken the full amount of

fees earned during the period from the program into income. The Company funded approximately 400,000 loans 
during the period.  No such fees were earned during the quarter ended July 31, 2020.   
Cost of Goods Sold  
The cost of goods sold related to the sale of homes were at $5.4 million for the quarter ended July 31 2021, compared 
to $ 6.3 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2020, as sales remained relatively flat for the comparative periods.  The 
Company experienced increased costs for labor and materials during the period resulting from supply shortages, 
retailer supply chain disruptions and material inflation.  
Cost of goods sold includes all the direct costs of the inventory sold as well as the costs related to the rehabilitation of 
the homes sold.  In addition, cost of goods sold includes carrying costs of all the properties sold and inventory on 
hand. 
The second component of the cost of goods sold is the interest expense on the mortgage note receivable portfolio.  The 
interest expense related to the portfolio income was $5.6 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2021, compared to 
$1.3 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2020.   The interest expense was higher due to the Company’s participation 
in the PPP program.  The Company borrowed $6.4 billion from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland to fund the 
loans it had originated at 35 bps per annum.  The Company accrued approximately $4.6 million in interest expenses 
related to these borrowing.  This was offset by lower debt costs on the mortgage note portfolio. 
Operating Expenses  
Operating expenses consist primarily of the following: compensation, sales and marketing, technology, legal, 
professional fees, insurance, and other operating expenses.  
Total operating expenses were $310.0 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2021, compared to $1.3 million for the 
quarter ended July 31, 2020. Of these operating expenses, $289.4 million are related to the PPP loan program the 
Company participated in.  These expenses represent the fees paid to the loan servicer provider for the origination and 
forgiveness of the PPP loans and were paid and accrued based on amounts earned during the quarter.  In addition, the 
company paid executive, board and employee bonuses in the amount of $18.7 million.  Normal operating expenses as 
a percentage of total revenues were at 8.6% for the quarter ended July 31, 2021 decreasing from 12.2% from the same 
reporting period of 2020.   The decrease was the result of increased interest income from the PPP loan program. 
Other Income/Expense  
The other interest expense relates to interest from acquisition debt.  Total other interest expenses decreased by 
approximately $44,000 from the quarter ended July 31, 2021, compared to the quarter ended July 31, 2020, due to the 
principal reduction on this debt.  The balance on the acquisition debt as of July 31, 2021, was $9.0 million compared 
to $11.6M at July 31, 2020.    
 
 

 
  
 
 
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended July 31, 2021, to the Nine Months Ended July 31, 2020 
 
 
Total Revenues 
Total property sales revenue from the sale of recently rehabilitated homes was $16.7 million for the nine months ended 
July 31, 2021 compared to $17.7 million for the period ended July 31, 2020.   Sales were flat during the period due to 
the fewer completed homes being available for sale during the period given tight inventory levels in Texas making it 
more difficult to find blighted homes to restore.  
Total interest income revenue generated from the Company’s mortgage note receivable portfolio increased to $27.3 
million for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, compared to $9.3 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2020.  
The increase was the result of growth in the total mortgage note receivable portfolio during the period and the addition 
of PPP loans to the portfolio.  The Company funded approximately $6.1 billion in PPP loans generating an annual 
interest rate of 1%. 
Other revenues include processing fees the Company earned from participation in the Payment Protection Program 
(PPP) administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Total fees earned during the nine month period 
were $930.0 million.  The Company did not generate such fees for the same period in 2020.  The Company has taken 
the full amount of fees earned during the period from the program into income. The Company funded approximately 
400,000 loans during the period.

Cost of Goods Sold  
The cost of goods sold related to the sale of homes was $14.5 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, 
compared to $15.6 million for the same period of 2020.  Cost of goods sold includes all the direct costs of the inventory 
sold as well as the costs related to the rehabilitation of the homes sold.  In addition, cost of goods sold includes carrying 
costs of all the properties sold and inventory on hand. 
The second component of the cost of goods sold is the interest expense on the mortgage note receivable portfolio.  The 
interest expense related to the portfolio income was $9.1 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, compared 
to $4.4 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2020.   The interest expense was higher due to the Company’s 
participation in the PPP program.  The Company borrowed $6.4 billion from the Federal Reserve Board to fund the 
loans it had originated at 35 bps per annum and the term of the advances matches exactly with the term of the PPP 
loan issued to the company’s customers The Company accrued approximately $5.5 million in interest expenses related 
to these borrowing.  This was offset by lower debt costs on the mortgage note portfolio. 
Operating Expenses  
Operating expenses consist primarily of the following: compensation, sales and marketing, technology, legal, 
professional fees, insurance, and other operating expenses.  
Total operating expenses were $629.8 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, compared to $3.6 million for 
the nine months ended July 31, 2020. Of these operating expenses, $606.4 million are related to the PPP loan program 
the Company participated in.  These expenses represent the fees paid to the loan servicer provider for the origination 
and forgiveness of the PPP loans and were paid and accrued based on amounts earned during the period. In addition, 
the Company paid executive, board and employee bonuses in the amount of $18.7 million during the period.  Normal 
operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues were at 11.6% for the nine months ended July 31, 2021 and 
decreased from 13.5% from the same reporting period of 2020 as a result of increased interest income from the PPP 
loan program in 2021. 
Other Income/Expense  
The other interest expense relates to interest from acquisition debt.  Total other interest expenses decreased $178,000 
for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, from the nine months ended July 31, 2020, due to the principal reduction on 
the debt.  The balance on the acquisition debt as of July 31, 2021was $9.0 million compared to $11.9 million at July 
31, 2020.  The company received a deferral of principal payments for three months starting in April 2020.  This 
principal amount will be due at the end of the loan period.  
Liquidity and Capital Resources  
We define liquidity as our ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand at the subsidiary level and to 
operate on an ongoing basis. Our liquidity requirements are met primarily through cash flow from operations, receipt of pre-
paid and maturing balances in our loan portfolios, debt financing, and preferred equity investments.  
As of July 31, 2021, Capital Plus Financial had cash and lines of credit available with its current banking partners in 
excess of $30.0 million.  
The Company also offers a Preferred Equity instrument to its bank partners which is considered a qualified investment 
under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) investment test for banks.  Banks purchase units of the preferred 
investment which generates cash for the Company and provides banks with an “innovative” investment, providing 
more favorable CRA assessment from their regulators.  
 

 
  
 
 
Working Capital 
Mortgage Note Portfolio 
The mortgage note portfolio consists of $132.7 million of long term fixed, amortizing single family residential 
mortgages in the Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio markets.  The Company provides a mortgage for the 
purchase of a property with an equity down payment from the potential buyer.  Our mortgage portfolio is comprised 
of first-time home buyers, and in over 60% of the cases, first time credit recipients. We believe the risk associated 
with these borrowers is mitigated by their history of debt aversion. Plainly said, those who have shown the financial 
discipline to operate without debt should be rewarded and not punished as is often the case with a zero-credit score 
borrower attempting to qualify for a mortgage. Each borrower is manually underwritten, and all are given the 
opportunity to demonstrably prove their ability to repay. A 43% debt to income (“DTI”) ratio is the maximum ratio 
for approved mortgages, but the average DTI ratio in our portfolio is 29.5%, further reinforcing the quality of our 
borrowers. All mortgages are originated in house and are Qualified Mortgages (QM).  Our weighted average rate on 
the portfolio was 10.36% at July 31, 2021. 
The Company has a default rate below 3% per year and when it does take a property back into inventory, it is able to 
put it back into its rehab cycle and resell it.  Given its ability to rehab and resell the properties at a profit, the Company 
has determined a reserve for delinquent and defaulted mortgages is not necessary as of July 31, 2021.  
As of July 31, 2021, the Company had a mortgage note receivable balance of $132.7 million compared to $121.4 
million as of July 31, 2020.   
In addition, the company carries higher value residential mortgage notes held for sale in its securities portfolio held to 
provide needed liquidity.  From time to time, the Company will also provide commercial real estate loans as part of its 
community development mission.  The outstanding balance of these loans at July 31, 2021, was $1.4 million compared 
to $ 6.2 million at July 31, 2020. 
Inventory  
Inventory consists of properties that are currently undergoing remodeling or are being held for sale. Inventory includes 
the initial costs of acquiring the property, remodeling costs, real estate taxes, and other direct costs incurred while 
remodeling the property. All indirect overhead costs, such as compensation of sales personnel, management, and 
advertising costs are charged to salaries and wages, or other general and administrative expenses as incurred. 
The initial direct costs to acquire properties and remodeling costs account for approximately 86% of the cost of 
properties sold in the consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended July 31, 2021. As of July 31, 2021, 
87 properties were being remodeled and 15 were completed and held for sale. Generally, the Company holds properties 
in inventory from acquisition to resale for 3 to 4 months. 
The Company regularly evaluates inventories that are slow-moving or incurring costs in excess of budgeted costs.   
The Company determined a reserve for slow-moving inventory was not necessary as of July 31, 2021. 
As of July 31, 2021, gross inventory was $10.6 million compared to $10.5 million as of July 31, 2020.   
Revolving Credit Facility  
The Company has a revolving line of credit for the acquisition of properties and another for its mortgage loans.  The 
outstanding balance on the inventory line at July 31, 2021, was $7.7 million compared to $9.9 million at July 31, 2020.  
The variance in the balance is a result of having few properties available for rehab. 

 
  
 
 
The outstanding balance on the mortgage loan revolving credit facility was $42.1 million as of July 31, 2021, compared 
to $ 44.9 million as of July 31, 2020.  The decrease is the result of moving loans from the revolving credit facilities to 
a term credit facility during the fourth quarter of 2020. 
Cash Flows Provided by Operations  
Continuing Operations  
Net cash used by operating activities during the nine months ended July 31, 2021, was $5.6 billion compared to $3.0 
million of net cash used for the nine months ended July 31, 2020. The primary reason for this increase was the 
Company’s participation in the PPP loan program and its funding of $6.1 billion in loans.  
Cash Flows Used in Investing and Financing Activities  
Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended July 31, 2021, was $6.2 billion compared to 
$1.6 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2020.  The primary reason for this increase was the Company’s 
participation in the PPP loan program and its funding from the Federal Reserve of $6.4 billion to fund its PPP loans.

1. COMPANY PROFILE AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS 
 
Crossroads Systems, Inc. (OTCQX: CRSS) (the “Company”, “CRSS” or “Parent”) was an intellectual property 
licensing company headquartered in Austin, Texas. Founded in 1996 as a product solutions company, Crossroads 
created some of the storage industry's most fundamental patents and licensed patents to more than 50 companies prior 
to filing for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code on August 13, 2017.   
 
On December 18, 2017, the Parent acquired 100% of the common equity of Capital Plus Financial, LLC (“CPF”), a 
Texas based community development financial institution (“CDFI”).  CPF’s mission is to make homeownership 
available to the Hispanic market throughout Texas.  CPF is also a certified B Corporation which is a group of for-
profit companies certified to meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and 
transparency. CPF operates in Texas where it acquires, renovates, and sells single-family homes providing seller 
financing through notes receivable. 
 
Principals of Consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CRSS and CPF. Capital Mortgage Servicing, LLC 
(“CMS”) is wholly owned by CPF.  (Collectively, “we”, “us”, or the “Company”).  All significant intercompany 
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.   
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
 
Basis of Presentation 
The consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting 
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The operations are for the period from 
November 1, 2020, to July 31, 2021. 
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents 
The Company considers all currency on hand, money market accounts, and highly liquid investments purchased with an 
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Restricted cash includes escrow accounts related 
primarily to CMS’s mortgage servicing obligations.  
 
Notes Receivable 
The Company originates predominantly 30-year notes receivable through sales of rehabilitated homes or purchases notes 
receivable that are secured by an assignment of a deed of trust.  The Company intends to hold the notes for the long-term 
as it has the ability to fund additional notes receivable through borrowings from lenders that are secured by the notes 
receivable and properties. Notes receivables are stated at their unpaid principal balances less an allowance for loan losses 
if any. The average contractual interest rate per note was approximately 10.36% as of July 31, 2021. Interest income is 
recognized monthly per the terms of the respective loan agreements.  Notes receivable have maturities that range from 
20 months to 30 years.  All of the Company’s loans and underlying collateral are located in Texas. 
 
The Company uses payment history to monitor the credit quality of the notes receivable on an ongoing basis. The 
Company assesses the carrying value of its notes receivable for impairment when it determines that impairment 
indicators are present. Notes are evaluated for impairment when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect 
all amounts due for scheduled principal and interest payments, including notes in the process of repossession.  
Impaired notes are generally measured based on the fair value of the collateral.  Impaired notes, or portions thereof, 
are charged off when deemed uncollectible.  A specific reserve is created for impaired notes based on the fair value 
of the underlying collateral.  No specific impairment was deemed necessary as of July 31, 2021.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED 
The Company may also receive escrow payments for property taxes and insurance included in its note receivable 
collections. The liabilities associated with these escrow collections totaled $2,763,555 as of July 31, 2021 and are 
included in escrow liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. 
The Company has loan participations of between 15% and 20%.  The loan participations do not meet the criteria to be 
presented net of the notes receivable with a majority due to officers of the Company, and accordingly, are presented 
in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  The Company’s liability for loan participations are 
paid as payments are received on the related notes receivable.  The loan participation liability totaled $381,903 as of 
July 31, 2021.   
 
Allowance for Loan Losses on Notes Receivable 
The allowance for loan losses reflects management’s estimate of probable and inherent losses in the notes receivable 
balances that may be uncollectible based upon review and evaluation of the loan portfolio as of the consolidated 
balance sheet date.  An allowance for loan losses is determined after considering, among other things, the loan 
characteristics, including the financial condition of borrowers, the value and liquidity of collateral, delinquency, and 
historical loss experience. 
 
In addition, the Company considers such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, overall portfolio 
quality, and current economic conditions. The Company applies multiple strategies to mitigate the risks associated 
with delinquent loans, including foreclosures and subsequent rehabilitation and resales. As a result, the Company 
historically has not experienced any significant losses and has determined that an allowance for probable and inherent 
loan losses was not required as of July 31, 2021.  
 
The Company’s policy is to place a note receivable on nonaccrual status when either principal or interest is past due 
and remains unpaid for 90 days or more. Accrued interest receivable is reversed for notes placed on nonaccrual status. 
Payments received on nonaccrual notes receivable are accounted for on a cash basis, first to interest and then to 
principal, as long as the remaining book balance of the asset is deemed to be recoverable. The accrual of interest 
resumes when the past due principal becomes current.  The unpaid principal balance of notes receivable on nonaccrual 
status was $1,061,224 at July 31, 2021.   
 
The Company assesses the collectability of notes receivable on a note by note basis to determine if formal foreclosure 
proceedings are necessary. The total principal balance of notes receivable for which the Company has begun formal 
foreclosure proceedings totaled $1,061,224 as of July 31, 2021. 
 
Other Notes Receivable 
From time to time, the Company will provide higher value financing for residential or commercial real estate.  As of July 
31, 2021, the Company had an outstanding balance of $1.1 million in such financing on a residential property and $87,000 
for one commercial property.  The interest rate on the financing for the residential property is 9.99% and 7.75% for the 
commercial property.  The residential property requires monthly principal and interest payments based on a 30-year 
amortization schedule maturing in 2049. The commercial property requires at least monthly interest payments and has a 
maturity of February 2022.  
 
The Company has a Convertible Note Receivable to Verdigris Holdings, Inc (a Delaware Financial Services Company) 
for $50,000.  The note accrues interest at 8% per annum and will mature on September 27, 2024.  The Note has conversion 
rights based on additional equity financing required by the company 
 
The Company also has a note receivable in the amount of $200,000 from Common Catalyst (a Colorado Corporation). 
The not matures on December 31, 2021 and accrues interest at a rate of 1% per year.

The Company sold a 20% loan participation in the $1.1 million residential property note receivable which is presented 
net of the other note receivable balance on the consolidated balances sheet.  The balance on the loan participation as of 
July 31, 2021, was $212,812.  
 
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED 
 
Due to their individually significant balances, the Company continually monitors other notes receivable for potential  
losses and the need for an allowance for loan losses.  As of July 31, 2021, all other notes receivable were current and  
in good standing and based on the borrowers’ history and values of the associated properties, the Company determined 
no allowance for loan losses was required. 
 
Inventory 
Inventory consists of properties that are currently undergoing remodeling or are being held for sale. Inventory includes 
the initial costs of acquiring the property, remodeling costs, real estate taxes, and other direct costs incurred while 
remodeling the property.  All indirect overhead costs, such as compensation of sales personnel, management, and 
advertising costs are charged to salaries and wages, or other general and administrative expenses as incurred.   
 
The initial direct costs to acquire properties and remodeling costs account for approximately 86% of the cost of 
properties sold in the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended July 31, 2021.  As of July 31, 2021, 
87 properties were being remodeled and 15 were completed and held for sale.  Generally, the Company holds 
properties in inventory from acquisition to resale for 3 to 4 months. 
 
Goodwill 
Goodwill resulted from the acquisition of CPF on December 18, 2017.  Goodwill is accounted for in accordance with 
ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill.  Management evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually or when 
circumstances indicate the estimated fair value may exceed the reporting unit’s carrying value indicating potential 
impairment of goodwill. The emergence of COVID-19 as a global pandemic in 2020 had minimal effects on the 
Company’s operations or stock price.  The Company determined that based on the limited impact of COVID-19 and 
continued growth in net income it was more likely than not goodwill was not impaired as of July 31, 2021. 
 
Revenue Recognition 
Interest income on notes receivable and other notes receivable is recognized on the accrual basis when earned using 
the effective interest method. Revenue from residential home sales is recognized when title passes to the purchaser 
and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized based on the contracted sales price.  
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, other notes 
receivable, credit facilities, other notes payable, and acquisition notes payable.  The carrying amount of cash and cash 
equivalents approximates its fair value because it is short-term in nature. The credit facilities, other note payable, and 
acquisition notes payable generally have short-term maturity dates or variable interest rates that reflect market rates, 
and the Company has determined that their fair value approximates their carrying value.  The Company assessed the 
fair value of notes receivable and other notes receivable based on the discounted value of the remaining principal and 
interest cash flows. The Company determined the fair value of other notes receivable approximates their book values 
and the fair value of July 31, 2021. 
 
Deferred Financing Fees 
The Company incurred costs for deferred financing fees when obtaining the acquisition note payable to Veritex 
Community Bank detailed in Note 6. The debt issuance costs are presented as a deduction against the corresponding 
debt on the consolidated balance sheet. The deferred financing fees are amortized over the respective debt agreement 
with amortization expense included in other interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of

operations. Amortization expense was $25,516 for the period ended July 31, 2021.  Net deferred financing fees were 
$116,245 as of July 31, 2021. 
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED 
Stock-Based Compensation 
The Company recognizes compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock on a straight-line basis 
over the requisite service period based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. Compensation 
cost associated with stock options granted is determined using a calculated option value. The calculated value of each 
stock option grant is derived using the Black Scholes option-pricing model and is recognized over the vesting period 
with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital. 
 
Use of Estimates 
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make 
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets 
and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses 
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates that could change 
in the near term and have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements include the deferred tax assets 
and allowance for loan losses.  
 
Income Taxes 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred 
taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities 
using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance 
is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not such assets will not be 
realized. 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. 
 
The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position that does not meet the more-likely-than-not 
threshold only after expiration of the statute of limitations of the relevant tax authority sustains our position following 
an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial 
statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon the ultimate 
settlement with the relevant tax authority. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in 
income tax expense. There were no identified tax benefits or liabilities that were considered uncertain positions at July 
31, 2021. 
 
Concentrations 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, cash equivalents, 
and notes receivable. The notes receivable are secured by the residential homes that were financed through the loan. 
The Company maintains deposits with major financial institutions, which from time to time, may exceed the federally 
insured limits at each institution.  The Company had cash and restricted cash in financial institutions that exceeded 
federally insured limits of approximately $573.8 million.  Management believes any potential credit risk is minimal.   
 
Risks and Uncertainties 
The Company's business is affected, directly and indirectly, by economic and political conditions and by governmental 
monetary and fiscal policies. Conditions such as inflation, recession, real estate values, volatile interest rates, 
governmental monetary policy, and other factors beyond the Company's control may adversely affect the Company's 
results of operations.  Adverse economic conditions could result in an increase in notes receivable delinquencies or 
foreclosures and a decrease in the value of the property or other collateral which secures the Company's loans. 
 
The Company relies on various forms of revolving and long-term borrowings to finance its working capital 
requirements and has historically demonstrated the ability to obtain additional financing or refinance maturing

19 
obligations as needed to support the Company’s ongoing financing needs. As disclosed in Note 6 of these consolidated 
financial statements, the Company has approximately $27.4 million in current debt obligations maturing within one 
year prior.   
 
The Company was and continues to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which is having significant effects on 
global markets, supply chains, businesses, and communities. The Company continues to evaluate the effects or 
potential effects of these events including possible disruptions with the availability of personnel or supplies and future 
government regulations or shutdowns.  The extent of the impact will depend on future developments including the 
duration and spread of the outbreak, distribution of vaccines, and government or other regulatory action.  There have 
been no adjustments to the consolidated financial statements related to this risk.

Acquisition Notes Payable 
To fund consideration in the December 18, 2017, acquisition of CPF, the Company entered into a $22,000,000 note 
payable with Veritex Community Bank (the “Veritex Note”) and a $2,200,000 note payable to CrossFirst Bank (the 
“CrossFirst Note”).   
 
Veritex Note 
The Veritex Note bears interest at the annual LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 4.50%, which was 4.59% at 
July 31, 2021.  The Veritex Note requires a monthly principal payment of $207,931, plus interest, through maturity 
on December 18, 2024, the date at which all unpaid principal and interest is due. The Veritex Note is collateralized 
by certain operating assets of the Company not already collateralized by the credit facilities. As of July 31, 2021, the 
unpaid principal balance on the Veritex Note was $9,032,705. The Veritex Note is presented on the consolidated 
balance sheet net of amortizing deferred financing fees of $116,245 at July 31, 2021.  
 
The Company is required to comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants under the Veritex Note.  The 
Company was not in compliance with the problem asset measurement ratio as of July 31, 2021, due to COVID-19 
affecting various county government’s ability to process foreclosures timely. The Company has the capability of 
curing the non-compliance and the lender has provided a temporary waiver related to the non-compliance.   
 
CrossFirst Note 
The CrossFirst Note was created to fund $2,200,000 of the purchase price in the acquisition of CPF to money market 
accounts in the seller’s names at CrossFirst Bank to serve as collateral for the note.  The CrossFirst was paid in full 
during the period ended July 31, 2021.

Other Note Payable 
The Company assumed a note payable in the December 2017 acquisition of CPF with an outstanding principal balance 
as of the date of the acquisition totaling $1,827,750 (the “Other Note”). The Other Note is subordinate to the other 
debt obligations, accrues interest at 6.50% per annum, calls for monthly payments of principal and interest of $22,710, 
and matures on December 31, 2026.  The balance on the Other Note was $1,193,238 at July 31, 2021.   
 
Future minimum principal payments for the Other Note are as follows for the years ending October 31: 
 
 
Paycheck Protection Program Loan 
On April 20, 2020, the Company qualified for and received a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), a 
program implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administrative (“SBA”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and 
Economic Security Act, from a qualified lender (the “PPP Lender”), for an aggregate principal amount of $376,800. 
The PPP Loan bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum, with the first nine months interest deferred, has a term of 
two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The principal amount of the 
PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program upon the Company’s request to the extent 
that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the Paycheck Protection Program, including payroll 
costs, covered rent, and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company. The Company 
has applied for forgiveness of the PPP Loan for these covered expenses. To the extent that all or part of the PPP Loan 
is not forgiven, the Company will be required to pay interest on the PPP Loan at a rate of 1.0% per annum, and 
commencing in November 2020, principal and interest payments will be required through the maturity date in April 
2022. The terms of the PPP Loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment 
defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the 
occurrence of an event of default. 
 
The Company applied for forgiveness in November of 2020 and is awaiting a response from the SBA. 
 
7.  OPERATING LEASES 
 
The Company is obligated, as lessee, under non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office space located in 
Bedford, Texas, and Houston, Texas. The lease agreements require monthly payments of $12,600 through their

8.  STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY 
 
The Company is authorized to issue up to 75 million shares of $0.001 par value common stock and 25 million shares 
of $0.001 par value preferred stock.  As of July 31, 2021, 5,971,994 shares of common stock were issued and 
outstanding and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.  
 
9. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION 
 
In June of 2018, the Company established the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (“Stock Plan”) in which shares of common 
stock are made available for grant to qualified officers, employees, directors, and other key personnel of the Company. 
The plan is authorized to issue up to 800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  
 
The vesting of the options is determined by the Company with current options granted vesting over three years. The 
Company recognizes compensation expense for the options granted using the straight-line method over the vesting 
period.  As of July 31, 2021, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense was $566,758 and is expected to be 
recognized over a weighted average period of 2.65 years.  
 
The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the 
following weighted average assumptions for the June 2020 grants: a share price of $7.33, volatility of 67.8%, a weighted 
average risk-free interest rate of 0.71%, and no dividends. The Company estimated the expected term of the options using 
comparable market data since no historical data was available for stock option grants.  The estimated expected term 
averaged 6.45 years. The weighted average grant date fair value for options granted was $4.51 and $224,697 of stock-
based compensation expense was recorded for the period ended July 31, 2021.  
 
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. The Company continues to 
assess the assumptions and methodologies used to calculate the established fair value of share-based compensation. 
Circumstances may change and additional data may become available over time, which could result in changes to these 
assumptions and methodologies, which could materially impact the fair value determinations. 
 
10.  NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS – CPF PREFERRED EQUITY 
 
CPF has 36 preferred units at $500,000 per unit outstanding as of July 31, 2021.  
 
The rights and privileges of preferred units are as follows: 
§ 
Duration and Voting:  preferred units have no maturity date and have no voting rights.  
§ 
Dividends: Holders of preferred units are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 3.50% 
through June 2022 and reset to the prime rate quarterly thereafter for the remainder of the investment.  
§ 
Conversion and Redemption:  preferred units are not convertible into common units or any other equity of CPF 
or the Company and are redeemable at the Company’s option after the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance. 
§ 
Liquidation preference: holders of preferred units are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to all dividends 
in arrears plus the initial capital contribution.  
During the period ended July 31, 2021, CPF paid preferred dividends totaling $155,773 and had an accrued balance 
of $50,485 at July 31, 2021.  Accrued dividends are included as a component of total ending equity for non-controlling 
interests at July 31, 2021.  
 
11.  RELATED PARTY ACTIVITIES

party through common ownership. Monthly payments under the lease were $4,500 and total rental payments for the 
nine months ended July 31, 2021, were $31,500. The lease was cancelled effective June 1, 2021. 
 

CROSSROADS SYSTEMS, INC

The Company leased office space in Dallas, Texas on a month to month basis from 210 Capital., a related party through 
common ownership. Monthly payments under the lease were $1,700 and total rental payments for the nine months 
ended July 31, 2021, were $6,800.  
 
The Company holds 13 loans that had loan participations associated with them of between 10% and 20%.  Two officers 
of the Company subsequently acquired these loan participations from the third parties.  As of July 31, 2021, the 
liability due to the officers of the Company totaled $267,091 and is included in other long-term liabilities on the 
consolidated balance sheet.  
 
12.  CONTINGENCIES  
 
The Company is a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business.  Common legal proceedings 
include, among other things, breach of contract and unlawful eviction. Although litigation is inherently uncertain, 
based on experience and the information currently available, management does not believe that such claims will have 
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. 
 
13. INCOME TAXES  
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the 
years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse.  A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes 
is as follows for the nine months ended July 31, 2021: 
 
    
 
 
As of October 31, 2020, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL's”) and research and 
experimentation credits (“R&E Credits”) available to reduce the future taxable income of approximately $103.9 
million and $4.7 million, respectively.  Such deferred tax assets expire as follows: 
 
 
 
14.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 
 
In accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, the Company evaluated all material events or transactions that 
occurred after July 31, 2021, the consolidated balance sheet date, and through September 14, 2021, the date the 
consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, noting the following transaction for disclosure as a
