Item 4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The following discussion provides information and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and its
liquidity and capital resources, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial
Statements and the other financial information included in Exhibit A and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result
of any number of factors.
The Company’s operating and reporting period is on a fiscal year ending on October 31. The quarterly
reporting period is from November 1, 2021 to January 31, 2022. The comparative period is from November
1, 2021 to January 31, 2022.
Fiscal 2022 Financial Overview & Results of Operations
Operations
As we indicated in our annual 2021 disclosure statement, fiscal 2021 was a transformational year for the Company.
We continued working through unwinding PPP in the first quarter of 2022 along with growing our partnership with
ECG and growing our RLBC acquisition. Total revenue from operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2022 was
$63.1 million compared to $7.3 million for the same period of 2021. The increase in revenue was from recognizing
PPP fee income of approximately $50.1 million during the quarter. Net operating income before taxes and non-
controlling interest for the quarter ended January 31, 2022 was $51.7 million compared to $921,000 for the same
period of 2021.
Net Earnings Per Share
Net earnings per share from operations before taxes and after non-controlling interests for the quarter ended January
31, 2022 was $8.64 compared to $0.13 for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The increase in earnings per share was
related to the PPP fee income recognized during the quarter.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended January 31, 2022 to the Three Months Ended January 31, 2021.
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 $4.6 million for the quarter ended
January 31, 2022 compared to $4.0 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. Sales for the quarter were
marginally higher due to increases in sales price and quantities.
Interest income as reported was $8.3 million compared to $3.3 million in 2021. Interest income generated from the
Company’s mortgage note receivable portfolio increased to $3.4 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2022
compared to $3.3 million for the same period of 2021. The additional increase of $4.9 million was primarily from
CPF’s participation in PPP and the impact of the ECG loan portfolio which grew from $7.5M at October 31, 2021 to
$49.4 million as of January 31, 2022. PPP loans generate interest income of one percent per annum until the loans are
forgiven. The Company had no such revenues for the quarter ended January 31, 2021.
Processing fee income generated from the Company’s participation in PPP was $50.1 million for the quarter ended
January 31, 2022. This fee income was booked as deferred income at the end of fiscal 2021 and is being taken into
income as PPP loans are forgiven. The Company has approximately $20 million in deferred income as of January 31,
2022.
Cost of Goods Sold
The cost of goods sold related to the sale of homes were at $4.2 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2022
compared to $3.6 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The increase in the costs was the result of additional
home sales and costs on those homes being higher in the quarter ended January 31, 2022 compared to the same period
of 2021.
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 cost of goods sold is the interest expense on the Company’s note portfolios. Total interest
expense related to the mortgage note portfolio income was $1.2 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2022
compared to $1.4 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The lower interest expense was the result of lower
debt outstanding and lower interest rates on the debt for the quarter ended January 31, 2022. The remaining interest
expense of $2.2 million was associated with the PPP and interest paid on the loan facility. Interest expense on the
Federal PPP Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”) on the PPP loans is 35 bps per annum. The Company had no such expenses
for the same period of 2021.
Processing fee expense related to PPP was $1.3 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2022. These fees were paid
to the Company’s lending service partners.
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 $2.4 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2022 compared to $1.2 million for the
quarter ended January 31, 2021. Operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues, net PPP revenue, were at 18.5%
for the quarter ended January 31, 2022 and increased from 17% from the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The main
driver of the increased expenses was related to addition of the impact loans and associated management fees of
$247,000, $229,000 of administrative expenses for RLBC and $253,000 in professional fees. Additionally, salaries
were $229,000 higher during the quarter because of increased headcount and stock compensation also increased by
$113,000 for new stock award grants.
Other Income/Expense
The other interest expense relates to interest from acquisition debt. Total other interest expenses decreased
approximately $41,000 from the quarter ended January 31, 2022 to the quarter ended January 31, 2021 due to the
principal reduction on this debt. The balance on the acquisition debt at January 31, 2022 was $7.9 million.
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 January 31, 2022, CPF had lines of credit available with its current banking partners in excess of $6.6 million
in addition to cash on hand. We continue to monitor our financing needs.
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 a
more favorable CRA assessment from their regulators.
Working Capital
Mortgage Note Portfolio
The mortgage note portfolio consists of $132 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 29.6%, 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 10.32% at January 31, 2022.
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 January 31, 2022.
As of January 31, 2022, the Company had a mortgage note receivable balance of $132 million compared to $129.8
million as of January 31, 2021.
Commercial and Other Note Portfolio
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 January 31, 2022 was $1.3 million compared
to $1.7 million at January 31, 2021.
In 2021, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with Enhanced Capital Group (“Enhanced”) to support their
origination of impact loans into emerging communities by financing impact real estate projects, capital finance and small
business loans to minority owned businesses and/or underserved communities. The Company funded eleven impact loans
with outstanding principal of $49.4 million as of January 31, 2022. The impact loans have an average interest rate of 9%
with the loans maturing from 10 months to 10 years. The Company had purchased no such loans for the quarter ended
January 31, 2021.
PPP Loan Portfolio
During fiscal 2021, CPF funded approximately $6.3 billion in PPP loans with a stated interest rate of one percent and
a five-year loan term. The loans are unsecured and fully guaranteed by the SBA and are eligible for forgiveness. As
of January 31, 2022, approximately 73% of the loans were forgiven and the outstanding loan balance was
approximately $1.71 billion. The loans are pledged to the federal reserve PPPLF and accrue interest at 35 bps per
annum.
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 overheard 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 91.9% of cost of
properties sold in the consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2022. As of January 31,
2022, 73 properties were being remodeled and 17 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 January 31, 2022.
As of January 31, 2022, gross inventory was $10.6 million compared to $11.2 million as of January 31, 2021, a
decrease of $600,000. The decrease in inventory is the result of increased demand on the overall housing market. We
expect the inventory levels to start increasing over the next several quarters as markets return back to normal
operations.
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 January 31, 2022 was $7.5 million compared to $9.1 million at January
31, 2021. The decrease in the outstanding balance is the result of decreasing inventories.
The outstanding balance on the mortgage loan revolving credit facility was $43.2 million as of January 31, 2022,
compared to $39.4 million as of January 31, 2021. The increase is the result of placing loans onto the revolving credit
facilities to a term credit facility during the quarter.
Cash Flows Provided by Operations
Continuing Operations
Net cash provided by operating activities during the quarter ended January 31, 2022 was $1.0 billion compared to $3.1
million of net cash used for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The main driver of cash provided was the reduction
in PPP loans receivable during the quarter.
Cash Flows Used in Investing and Financing Activities
Net cash used by financing activities during the quarter ended January 31, 2022 was $1.4 billion compared to $171,000
provided for the quarter ended January 31, 2021. The usage was the result of the PPP loans paid off on the PPPLF
during the quarter.
There are no known trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the
company’s short-term or long-term liquidity. The internal sources of liquidity are profits generated from the
company’s operating subsidiary, Capital Plus Financial, and its external sources of liquidity remain debt and equity
from banking institutions that assist in the institutions compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). The
company has no material commitments for capital expenditures and the expected source of funds for such
expenditures. There are no known trends, events, or uncertainties that had had or that are reasonably expected to have
a material impact on the net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations. There are no significant elements
of income or loss that do not arise from the company’s continuing operations. There are also no causes for any material
changes from period to period in one or more line items on the Company’s financial statements nor are the seasonal
aspects that had a material effect on the financial condition of the results of operations.

Item 5 Legal Proceedings
As of the date of this report, Crossroads is currently involved in the following litigation and investigations.
Greathouse v. Capital Plus Financial, LLC and Crossroads Systems, Inc.
On December 29, 2021, Eric Greathouse filed a case in the Eastern District of Arkansas against the Company and
Capital Plus Financial, LLC (“CPF”) on behalf of himself and a putative nationwide class of Paycheck Protection
Program (“PPP”) borrowers, who allegedly timely applied for PPP loans with Defendant CPF as the lender and who
had their loans approved by the SBA but did not receive the PPP loan proceeds. The action asserts breach of contract
and unjust enrichment against the defendants in connection with his and the putative class’s claims. The Company
denies allegations of any wrongdoing and intends to vigorously defend the case. On February 25, 2022, the Company
filed a motion to dismiss all counts for lack of personal jurisdiction and standing and for failure to state a claim. At
this time, the court has not issued a ruling.

Ba Fin Orion, LLC d/b/a Blueacorn, and Barry Calhoun
County TX (docket number DC-21-13097), which the Company and other defendants removed to the Northern District
of Texas. Following removal and an amendment of their original complaint on December 23, 2021, the case alleges
various torts, including fraud and tortious interference with contract, in connection with Womply’s allegations
regarding its entitlement to the fees Womply allegedly earned by creating and providing technology infrastructure for
the federal Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The Company denies allegations of any wrongdoing and intends to
vigorously defend the case. On January 31, 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss all counts for failure to state
a claim. At this time, the court has not issued a ruling.

1. COMPANY PROFILE AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Crossroads Systems, Inc. (OTCQX: CRSS) (“CRSS” or “Parent”) was an intellectual property licensing company
headquartered in Austin, Texas. Founded in 1996 as a product solutions company, CRSS created some of the storage
industry's most fundamental patents and licensed patents to more than 50 companies prior to filing for re-organization
under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code on August 13, 2017.
On December 18, 2017, the Parent closed on the acquisition of 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. In Texas, CPF acquires, renovates, and sells single family homes providing seller
financing through notes receivable. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021, CPF participated in the second
round of the Cares Act implementation of the PPP through the United States Department of the Treasury and Small
Business Administration (“SBA”).
CRSS entered into an advisory agreement with Enhanced Capital Group (“ECG”) on September 14, 2021,
an investment firm committed to socially responsible investment initiatives and impact manager of P10 Holdings,
Inc ("P10"), a leading, specialized multi-asset class private markets solutions provider. The advisory agreement allows
for the participation in loans infusing capital into emerging communities through small businesses and projects that
spur job creation, promote environmental sustainability, support women, minority and veteran-owned businesses and
stimulate underserved communities across the country.
2. BUSINESS COMBINATION
Crossroads acquired 100% of the equity interests in Rise Line Business Credit, LLC (“RLBC”) on September 24,
2021 for cash consideration totaling $10,079,046, funded through cash on hand. RLBC is a nationwide asset-based
lending firm that provides innovative working capital solutions. Through this transaction, Crossroads anticipates being
able to provide better accessibility to banking for small businesses and assist in their transition into the conventional
banking system where many are currently underserved. The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition
method of accounting where the results of operations for RLBC are included beginning September 24, 2021. The fair
value of the net assets acquired in the acquisition equaled the purchase price so no goodwill was recorded and
management identified no intangibles for recognition. Net assets acquired in the acquisition included approximately
$2.2 million in cash, $283,000 in interest receivable and other current assets, $7.6 million of asset-based loans and
$16,000 of current liabilities.
3. 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. The operations are for the period from November 1,
2021 through January 31, 2022.
Principals of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CRSS, CPF and RLBC. 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.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
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 approximately $1.5 million in
escrow accounts related primarily to CMS’s mortgage servicing obligations, $62.9 million in funds due to the Federal
Reserve to payoff PPP loans in transit.
Mortgage 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 until maturity as
it has the ability to fund the notes receivable through borrowings from lenders that are secured by the notes receivable
and properties. Mortgage notes receivable are stated at their unpaid principal balances less an allowance for loan losses.
The average contractual interest rate per note was approximately 10.32% as of January 31, 2022. Interest income is
recognized monthly per the terms of the respective loan agreements. Mortgage notes receivable have maturities that range
from 4 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 mortgage notes receivable on an ongoing basis.
The Company assesses the carrying value of its mortgage 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 January 31, 2022.
The Company may also receive escrow payments for property taxes and insurance included in its mortgage note
receivable collections. The liabilities associated with these escrow collections totaled $169,919. as of January 31, 2022
and are included in escrow liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
Allowance for Loan Losses on Mortgage 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 giving consideration to, 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 in the application of various strategies to mitigate risks associated with the
portfolio. The Company has determined that an allowance for probable and inherent loan losses was not required as
of January 31, 2022.
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 $722,026 at January 31, 2022.
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 $339,315 as of January 31, 2022.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Commercial/Other Notes Receivable
From time to time, the Company will provide higher value financing for residential or commercial real estate. As of
January 31, 2022, the Company had an outstanding balance of $1.3 million in such financing on residential property.
The interest rate on the financing for the residential property is 9.99%. The residential property requires monthly
principal and interest payments based on 30-year amortization schedule maturing in 2049.
In 2021, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with Enhanced Capital Group to purchase impact loans to
infuse capital into emerging communities. The Company has purchased impact loans totaling $49.4 million as of
January 31, 2022.
The Company acquired two asset-based loans in the RLBC acquisition which totaled $8 million as of January 31,
2022. The asset-based loans were recorded at their estimated fair values at acquisition which approximated their
amortized cost basis which includes the origination amount of the loan adjusted for applicable accrued interest, net
deferred fees, audit and legal costs and cash collections. One of the two asset-based loans, a revolving loan totaling
$3.6 million, is in default. The Company is in negotiations to settle the loan and believes the estimated value of the
secured collateral is sufficient to cover the loan’s outstanding balance.
Due to their individually significant balances, the Company continually monitors commercial/other notes receivable
for potential losses and the need for an allowance for loan losses. Notes are stated at amounts due from customers, net
of allowance for loan losses. The Company determines the allowance by considering several factors including the
aging of the past due balance, the customer’s payment history, and the Company’s previous loss history. The Company
establishes an allowance reserve composed of specific and general reserve amounts. As of January 31, 2022, all
commercial/other notes receivable, except for the $3.6 million asset-based loan discussed above, 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 as of January 31, 2022.
Paycheck Protection Loans Receivable
The Company is actively participating in the second round of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security
Act (the “CARES Act”) implementation of the PPP through the United States Department of the Treasury and SBA.
PPP loans have the following characteristics: an interest rate of 1.0%; principal and interest payments are deferred for
nine months from the date of disbursement; a five-year loan term to maturity for loans made on or after June 5, 2020
(loans made prior to June 5, 2020 have a two-year term, however borrowers and lenders may mutually agree to extend
the maturity for such loans to five years); and they are unsecured and guaranteed by the SBA.
Interest is recognized as interest income in the consolidated statements of operations when earned and deemed
collectible. PPP administrative fee revenue are deferred and recognized over the estimated life of the loans. PPP
administrative fee revenue for all loans paid in full or forgiven are recognized as earned at the time paid in full.
Management estimated life for all loans equal to or less than $150,000 to be 12-months while the administrative fees
for all loans greater than $150,000 are amortized over their stated terms, an average of 60-months. As of January 31,
2022, approximately $20 million in PPP administrative fees were deferred.
Inventory
Inventory consists of properties that are currently undergoing remodeling or are being held for sale. Inventory is stated
at the lower of its cost or net realizable value using the specific identification method. Repair costs, commissions,
closing costs, interest and other costs associated with individual properties are included in the cost of the property and
are expensed as part of the cost of sales when the property is sold.
The Company regularly evaluates inventories that are aged significantly or incurring costs in excess of budgeted costs.
The Company determined that no reserves or impairments of inventory were necessary as of January 31, 2022.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Equity Method Investment
The Company accounts for its investment in a partnership that in turn makes equity investments in projects eligible to
receive federal energy tax credits in order to promote climate change in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments – Equity Securities. The
Company’s investment does not have a readily determinable fair value. Accordingly, the investment is measured at
cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions
for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company evaluates its investments in equity securities
for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that there is a loss in value of the investment, which is other
than temporary. In the event that the loss in value of an investment is other than temporary, the Company would record
a charge to earnings to adjust the carrying value to fair value. For the quarter ended January 31, 2022, the Company
invested approximately $9.4 million in the partnership to be re-invested in projects qualifying for tax credits that the
Company expects will be utilizable beginning in fiscal year 2022. The Company determined no impairment to the
investment value was necessary at January 31, 2022 based on expectations for future tax credits to be realized.
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 annually or when circumstances
indicate the estimated fair value exceeds the reporting unit’s carrying value indicating potential impairment of
goodwill. The Company determined that goodwill was not impaired at January 31, 2022.
Revenue Recognition
Interest income on mortgage notes receivable, commercial/other notes receivable and PPP loans 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, mortgage notes receivable,
commercial/other notes receivable, credit facilities, other note payable and acquisition notes payable. The carrying
amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value because it is short-term in nature. This is considered
a Level I valuation technique. 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. This is considered a Level II valuation technique. The Company assessed
the fair value of mortgage notes receivable and commercial/other notes receivable and determined their fair value
approximates their book value based on anticipated cash flows for principal and interest and relatively immaterial
interest rate fluctuations, net of other factors.
Deferred Financing Fees
The Company incurred costs for deferred financing fees when obtaining the acquisition note payable to Veritex
Community Bank detailed in Note 9. 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 $11,341 for the quarter ended January 31, 2022. Net deferred financing fees
were $99,234 as of January 31, 2022.
3. 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 was derived using the Black Scholes option-pricing model based on significant inputs including the
Company’s common stock price on the grant date, risk-free interest rate, expected option life, and expected volatility.
The Company used the contractual life as the expected option life since no historical data exists. The Company used
historical common stock data to estimate expected volatility for valuation of the stock options.
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 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
January 31, 2022.
Tax credits from our equity method investments in partnerships investing in projects eligible to receive federal energy
tax credits, when realized, are recognized as a reduction of tax liabilities under the flow-through method, at which
time the corresponding equity investment is written-down to reflect the remaining value of the future benefits to be
realized. No tax credits were realized or recognized as of the quarter ended January 31, 2022.
Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash
equivalents and mortgage notes receivable. The mortgage notes receivable are secured either by the residential homes
that were financed through the loan or by the borrower’s assets. The Company maintains deposits with major financial
institutions, which from time-to-time, may exceed the federally insured limits at each institution. The Company has
experienced no losses related to its deposits and management believes any potential credit risk is minimal.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company's business is affected, directly and indirectly, by domestic and international 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, foreclosures and non-performing assets and a decrease in the value of 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
obligations as needed to support the Company’s ongoing financing needs. As disclosed in Note 9 of these consolidated
financial statements, the Company has approximately $60.7 million in current debt obligations maturing within one
year prior.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America 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 adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit
Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU No. 2016-13 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be
presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the
amortized cost basis. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events,
including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the
collectability of the reported amount. During November 2018, April 2019, May 2019, November 2019 and March
2020, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, ASU No. 2019-11 and ASU
No. 2020-03. ASU No. 2018-19 clarifies the effective date for nonpublic entities and that receivables arising from
operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, ASU Nos. 2019-04 and 2019-05 amend the transition
guidance provided in ASU No. 2016-13, and ASU Nos. 2019-11 and 2020-03 amend ASU No. 2016-13 to clarify,
correct errors in, or improve the guidance. ASU No. 2016-13 (as amended) is effective for annual periods and interim
periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022 with early adoption permissible for the current
period. The Company is currently assessing the effect that ASU No. 2016-13 (as amended) will have on its
consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

6. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOANS RECEIVABLE
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. Congress approved, and former President Trump signed into law, the CARES Act. The
CARES Act provides approximately $2 trillion in financial assistance to individuals and businesses resulting from the
outbreak of COVID-19. The CARES Act, among other things, provides certain measures to support individuals and
businesses in maintaining solvency through monetary relief in the form of financing and loan forgiveness and/or
forbearance. The primary catalyst of small business stimulus in the CARES Act is referred to as the PPP, an SBA loan
that temporarily supports businesses in order to retain their workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the
CARES Act, the initiative calls for select lenders to extend loans to small businesses to cover payroll, occupancy and
operating expenses through the PPP. Furthermore, the PPP includes a 100% guarantee from the federal government
for loans up to $10 million and principal forgiveness for borrowers if the funds are used primarily for retaining
employees. The Company, as a CDFI, began participating as a lender for the second round of the PPP.
In the aggregate, the Company has facilitated the fundings of approximately $6.3 billion of loans through this program.
The Company has elected fair value option for these loans that are held-for-investment.
6. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOANS RECEIVABLE (continued)
The Company entered into a Lender Service Provider (“LSP”) agreement with a third-party. Under this agreement,
the Company paid a portion of the administration fees to the LSP for originating, underwriting, and processing PPP
loans, processing forgiveness with the SBA, and servicing the outstanding portfolio of PPP loan receivable.
The Company also partnered with a handful of banks that referred loans to the Company. These loans were processed
through a third-party platform. The Company paid an administration fee to the platform provider and the SBA
authorized referral fees to the banks. In total, approximately 500 loans were processed on the third-party platform.
The Company purchased approximately $133 million of PPP loans receivable from a third-party bank at 98.5% of
their unpaid principal balance at acquisition. The unearned discount as of January 31, 2022 was $887,174 with
$397,241 of the original discount being amortized and recognized as a component of interest income on the
consolidated statement of operations.
During the first quarter, the Company recognized approximately $50 million in net PPP income.
7. EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT IN SOLAR TAX CREDIT FUND
The Company committed to invest $15 million into a fund investing in solar projects eligible to receive federal energy
tax credits in order to promote climate change. The balance of the Company’s investment in the fund as of January
31, 2022 was $9,380,944. No impairment or other activities affecting the cost of the investment balance were required
for the quarter ended January 31, 2022.

11. PAYMENT PROTECTION PROGRAM LIQUIDITY FACILITY
The Company was authorized to incur indebtedness from the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank under the PPPLF to facilitate
PPP lending under round 2 of the CARES Act. Such borrowings are secured by pledges of loans to small businesses
under the PPP loan program, whether originated or purchased by the Company. Interest will accrue at a rate of 0.35%
of the outstanding balance. Repayments of principal and accrued interest are due in proportion to the amounts received,
upon receipt of any PPP loan forgiveness payments received from the SBA, receipt of any proceeds from the sale of
any loans to the SBA, or receipt of payment from the borrower. Borrowings under the PPPLF will mature with the
maturity date of the associated PPP loans pledged as collateral, which are scheduled to mature on various dates
between January 23, 2026 and July 29, 2026. The outstanding advances on the PPPLF at January 31, 2022 was
$1,754,169,806.
12. 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. Both leases expire
in December 2022.
Future minimum payments required under non-cancelable operating lease agreements are as follows for the years
ending October 31:
2022 $ 113,400
2023 25,200
$ 138,600
Rent expense associated with non-cancelable operating leases for the period ended January 31, 2022 was $42,900,
and is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
13. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOAN PAYABLE
On April 20, 2020, the Company qualified for and received a loan pursuant to the PPP, a program implemented by the
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
six months interest deferred, has a term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the SBA.
Because the Company is involved with lending activities, the Company’s PPP Loan was not eligible for forgiveness.
Monthly principal and interest payments of $75,549 commenced in December 2021 and 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 balance of the PPP Loan was $225,891 at January 31,
2022.
14. 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 January 31, 2022, 5,971,994 shares of common stock were issued and
outstanding and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.
15. 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 January 31, 2022, unrecognized stock based compensation expense was $4,369,929 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 and January 2022 grant.
Weighted Average Risk Average Estimated Weighted Average
Award Share Price Volatility Free Interest Rate Expected Term Grant Date Fair Value
June 2020 $ 7.33 67.8% 0.71% 6.45 $ 4.51
January 2022 $ 13.75 207.4% 0.71% 6.50 $ 13.64
The Company estimated the expected term of the options using comparable market data since no historical data was
available for stock option grants. Stock-based compensation expense recorded was $187,711 for the period ended January
31, 2022.
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.
16. NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS – CPF PREFERRED EQUITY
CPF has 36 preferred units at $500,000 per unit outstanding as of January 31, 2022.
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 on a quarterly basis 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 January 31, 2022, CPF paid preferred dividends totaling $158,795 and had an accrued balance
of $50,485 at January 31, 2022. Accrued dividends are included as a component of total ending equity for non-
controlling interests at January 31, 2022.

total rental payments for the quarter ended January 31, 2022, were $5,100 with rent owed at January 31, 2022 totaled
$10,200.
18. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Common legal proceedings

based on past 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.
19. INCOME TAXES

years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes

occurred after January 31, 2022, the consolidated balance sheet date, and through March 15, 2022, the date the

as subsequent events.
As part of the Company’s participation as a lender in the PPP, a total of 297,576 loans were forgiven and/or paid in
