The Company does not promise to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in the underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

Item 1. Business

 

Our History

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 2, 2021, initially by Impactology Financial Corporation (“IFC”). On November 4, 2021, we issued 10,001 shares of our common stock to IFC in exchange for $50,100. On March 11, 2022, the Company effected a reverse stock split, reducing the Company’s 10,000,000 authorized shares of common stock to 5,000 shares of common stock. As a result, the 10,001 shares owned by IFC converted to 5 shares of common stock, representing all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Subsequently, on March 17, 2022, IFC transferred all of its 5 shares of the Company’s common stock to Compound Real Estate Holdings, Inc., (“CH”), which became the new parent of the Company. CH is the sole stockholder of the Company’s common stock, and was formed by the same individuals behind IFC, which is now non-operational. The purpose of establishing CH was a re-branding effort.

 

CH also wholly owns Compound Administrative Services LLC, an entity with which we contract for administrative services. Our wholly owned subsidiary Compound Lending, through which we plan to operate our business, was organized as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 16, 2022. For a description of the relationship between these entities, see the section entitled “OUR ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE” on page 42 of the Offering Circular.

 

Our principal office is located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 3rd floor, New York, NY 10036 and our phone number is 1-800-560-5215. Our corporate website address is located at www.compoundrealestatebonds.com. Information contained on, or accessible through, the website is not a part of, and is not incorporated by reference into, this report.

 

Background – the Compound Group of Companies

 

CH was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on September 28, 2021. Compound aims to democratize investing for everyone, by giving everyone an opportunity to invest like the 1%. As an alternative to the low interest saving accounts at traditional institutions, Compound provides consumers with an 8.5% fixed interest earning digital bond for as little as $10. Compound Bonds harness the power of real estate to provide consumers with an attractive interest rate. The proceeds from bonds purchased by consumers will be used by the Company to acquire real estate, lent out to households and businesses through asset backed loans secured by real estate, or used to purchase existing asset-backed loans secured by real estate.

 

In its fundraising efforts, CH is initially targeting the millennials who are surpassing the baby boomers as the nation’s largest living generation and developed the Compound Fintech Platform to do so. CH’s management believes that the millennial demographic in large part has a basic distrust of traditional financial institutions, is burdened by student loans and other debt, changes employment frequently, and has difficulty saving money and/or funding a retirement program. CH believes the current financial system has not provided this generation with an attractive return on their savings held in traditional savings accounts. As an alternative, Compound Real Estate Bonds provides consumers a way to put idle money to work through a digital high yield bond. Instead of having idle money sit in low interest savings accounts in traditional financial institutions, Compound Real Estate Bonds deploys money to support communities, while bondholders earn a high interest passively, powered by real estate.

 

On November 2, 2021, our Company was formed by IFC (which subsequently established CH, our current parent company, as part of a re-branding effort, after which IFC became non-operational). Our business model is centered primarily around purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate.

 

On March 16, 2022, we formed our wholly-owned subsidiary Compound Lending, LLC (“Compound Lending”). Compound Lending provides loan and investment origination and processing services for our Company. Also on March 15, 2022, CH established Compound Administrative Services.

In January 2022, CH launched the Compound Fintech Platform that provides tools to help people easily invest including through “spare change” round ups. Round ups monetize debit card purchases, checking account linked credit card purchases and other checking account transactions by “rounding up” each purchase to the next higher dollar until the “round up” reaches $10.00 at which time the user will automatically purchase a $10.00 Compound Bond. The application was under beta testing during 2022 and began onboarding users in January 2023. The Compound Fintech Platform interfaces with certain back-end computer software and database infrastructure developed and owned by the Company that processes and manages data provided by investors via the Compound Fintech Platform.

 

Our Business Model

 

We are an early stage company, which, through our wholly owned subsidiary Compound Lending, plan to implement our business model. Our business model is centered primarily around purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate. We anticipate that at least 80% of our assets will consist of real estate as well as mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate, and that the remainder of our assets will consist of real estate assets (which may include interests in whole pool mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and debt obligations secured by a pool of whole mortgage loans) and/or cash and cash equivalents. We do not intend to acquire any assets that are not cash and cash equivalents and have no relationship to real estate. We will sell Compound Bonds in this offering to provide the capital for these activities.

 

Our company’s mission is to democratize investing for everyone. We aim to provide consumers access to investing in alternative assets like the top 1 percent do, by digitizing exposure to real estate. At Compound, we work to reach underserved communities, to provide access to capital and opportunities, all within an easy-to-use and accessible mobile app.

 

Our Investment Strategy

 

We use a value driven investing approach where we seek to purchase real estate and real estate related debt for less than what we believe is their intrinsic value. Our flexible approach focuses on identifying quality income-producing investments across these asset classes, regardless of location or property type. While aim to build a diverse portfolio across property types and geographies, we take a high conviction thematic investment approach and aim to weigh our portfolio across markets where we believe there are strong opportunities for grown and stability. For more information about our overall strategy and the particular assets we plan to target, please see the section entitled “OUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY,” starting on page 2 of our Offering Circular.

 

Our Fundraising Strategy

 

The Compound Bonds:

 

  are priced at $10.00 each;
     
  represent a full and unconditional obligation of our company;
     
  bear interest at 8.5% per annum. For clarification purposes, we will pay interest on interest (compounded interest) and credit such interest to bondholders’ Compound accounts;
     
  are subject to repayment at any time at the demand of the holder upon five (5) days’ notice;
     
  are subject to redemption by us at any time upon five (5) days’ notice;
     
  are not payment dependent on any underlying real estate loans or investments;
     
  are transferable;

 

2

 

 

  are unsecured;
     
  are uninsured;
     
  are not guaranteed by the Company’s affiliates or any other third party.

 

The Company has a limited operating history and has not yet made any investments. Our management has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern based on these conditions and our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report with respect to our audited consolidated financial statements for the period from year ended December 31, 2023, the year ended December 31, 2022, and from November 2, 2021 (inception) to December 31, 2021. We expect to generate income from (i) the difference between the interest rates we charge on our real estate loans and mortgages and other real estate investments which we have acquired and the interest we will pay to the holders of Compound Bonds; (ii) loan origination fees generated by Compound Loans (1% to 2% of the amount of a loan originated by Compound Loans charged to the borrower, the proceeds from which will flow to Compound Bonds); (iii) profits we realize on the sale of the interests in real estate that we acquire, and (iv) rental income from interests in real estate that we acquire. However, the only income we have generated to date is from the interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents. We also expect to use up to 5% of the proceeds from sales of Compound Bonds to provide working capital and general corporate purposes for our company until such time as our revenues are sufficient to pay our operating expenses.

 

Until sufficient proceeds have been received by us from the sale of Compound Bonds in this offering we will rely on advances from our parent as to which we have no assurances. CH is not obligated to provide advances to us, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in raising proceeds in this offering. If we do not raise sufficient funds in this offering or if our parent declines to make advances to us, we will not be able to implement our business plan, or may have to cease operations altogether. We will not be paying back any of the funds advanced to us by CH and therefore there is no interest rate or maturity associated with such advances.

 

Recent Operations

 

The Company’s business to date has been focused on raising capital and conducting market research and analysis on potential real estate investment opportunities. The Company is searching for, but has yet to identify, real estate assets which meet its investment criteria that it can acquire. Unfortunately, the Company’s capital raising efforts have not yet produced the necessary funding to acquire any of these investments while also leaving sufficient cash available to fund operations and cover anticipated redemptions. The Company has placed much of its available assets in interest bearing accounts and liquid U.S. government bonds to earn a return while it searches for investment opportunities. The success of our Company will be based on our ability to raise additional capital through our Regulation A offering, and the timeframe at which we can reach our objectives is dependent on the speed at which we can continue to raise funds.

 

Compound Fintech Platform

 

CH has developed technology solutions, including the Compound App and the Compound Websites (each of which display substantially the same information to users), that facilitate the purchase of Compound Bonds and provide each user with information on the Compound Bonds he or she owns. We refer to the Compound App and the Compound Website collectively as the “Compound Fintech Platform.” The Compound Fintech Platform interfaces with certain back-end computer software and database infrastructure developed and owned by the Company that processes and manages data provided by investors via the Compound Fintech Platform. The Compound Fintech Platform provides information about each user’s personal investment in Compound Bonds but does not provide information about Compound Bonds owned by other individuals, does not provide any information about the current financial status of Company, and does not provide any information concerning the assets owned by the Company. We will pay a license fee to CH in the amount of 2% of the value of the total Compound Bonds sold on the Compound Fintech Platform each year. Such technology license fees are payable from operating revenue and/or proceeds of this offering.

Compound App

 

The Compound App is designed to support the target market for our bonds which we believe is approximately 74 million millennials, who spend more than $600 billion a year. The Compound App seeks to provide an easy way for our target market to micro invest including monetizing their debit card purchases, checking account linked credit card purchases and other checking account transactions by “rounding up” each purchase to the next higher dollar until the “round up” reaches $10.00 at which time the user will automatically purchase a $10.00 Compound Bond. The Compound App is available via the web at www.compoundrealestatebonds.com, for Apple iPhone users from the Apple Store and for Android phone users from Google Play.

 

Procedurally, Compound App users download the application and simply link their bank account to the Compound App. If engaging in the round-up feature, they connect their debit card or credit card to the Compound App. Every time the user shops or completes any checking account transaction, the Compound App automatically rounds up their purchase to the next dollar, tracks the spare change and then automatically uses it to purchase Compound Bonds. The user’s bank accounts are monitored and the money is transferred via ACH once the round up amounts reach $10.00. Users can also make one time or recurring purchases of Compound Bonds.

 

Compound Websites

 

By accessing our Compound Website at www.compoundrealestatebonds.com, investors in our Compound Bonds can create a username and password and indicate agreement to our terms and conditions and privacy policy.

 

The Compound Website offers users the following features:

 

  Compound Bonds available for purchase online directly from us. Users may purchase Compound Bonds directly from us through the Compound Website;

 

  No purchase fees charged. We will not charge users any commission or fees to purchase Compound Bonds through the Compound Website. However, other financial intermediaries, if engaged, may charge users commissions or fees;
     
  Invest as little as $10. Users will be able to build ownership in Compound Bonds over time by making purchases as low as $10;
     
  Flexible, secure payment options. Users may purchase Compound Bonds electronically or by wire transfer, and we will provide funding instructions; and
     
  Manage your portfolio online. Users can view their bond purchases, redemptions, interest payments and other transaction history online, as well as receive tax information and other reports.

 

Following your initial purchase of Compound Bonds, you can elect to participate in our auto-invest program, or the “Auto-Invest Program,” on the Compound Websites and App. This program allows users to automatically invest in additional Compound Bonds on a reoccurring basis (e.g., daily, bi-weekly or monthly) subject to an amount and investment parameters that users may designate.

 

Marketing

 

Our Bonds will be marketed through our website, on-line information sources, social networks, institutional (Colleges and universities, charities, trade associations and employers) and other marketing partner sources of introduction and referral.

Operations – Administrative Services Agreement with Compound Administrative Services LLC

 

On March 17, 2022, we entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with Compound Administrative Services, an affiliate which is wholly owned by our parent corporation, Compound Real Estate Holdings, Inc. Compound Administrative Services was established on March 15, 2022 as a cost-sharing effort to utilize personnel more efficiently throughout the Compound group of companies. As a result, our executive officers and the other personnel which provide services to us are all employed by Compound Administrative Services. During 2022, Compound Administrative Services paid professional expenses on behalf of the Company which resulted in an amount owed by the Company to Compound Administrative Services of $29,981 and are reflected on the balance sheet of the Company’s year-end Audited financials as an amount due to a related party. On November 13, 2023, the Administrative Services Agreement was amended to recognize the fact that the Parties had agreed that the Company would be invoiced and make payments pursuant to the Agreement on an annual (instead of monthly) basis. As of December 31, 2023 owed Compound Administrative Services $97,845.06 pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, which are recognized as expenses and amounts due to related parties in the Company’s December 31, 2023 financial statements. The amount which will be owed as of March 31, 2024, (including what will ultimately be invoiced at year end, 2024) is estimated amount to be approximately $96,809.71.

 

Under the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement, Compound Administrative Services agreed to provide to the Company certain administrative services, administrative services, personnel and office facilities, including all equipment and supplies, that are reasonable, necessary or useful for the day-to-day operations of the business of the Company, subject to such written direction provided by the Company to Compound Administrative Services.

 

Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse Compound Administrative Services for the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses for the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement. There is no interest rate or maturity associated with the obligations to reimburse Compound Administrative Services under the Administrative Services Agreement. The reimbursement amounts payable to Compound Administrative Services by the Company will accrue until the Company can make reimbursement payments to Compound Administrative Services from the proceeds of this offering allocated to working capital and distributions from Compound Lending, the Company’s operating subsidiary (generated from the income from the operations from Compound Lending), which reimbursement payments will be made in advance on an annual basis.

 

The reimbursement amount under the Administrative Services Agreement, will be equal to the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses under the Administrative Services Agreement for the Company and will consist of both a to-be-determined portion of the annual salaries and employee benefits of our executive officers and the other personnel employed by Compound Administrative Services based upon the amount of time they devote to us, as well as a pro-rata allocation of office expenses. We have not yet determined the amount of this annual reimbursement amount as it will be based on the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses for the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement and as Compound Administrative Services has not yet determined salary payment amounts or the benefits it will provide to our executive officers and the other personnel employed by Compound Administrative Services.

 

There will be no fees under the Administrative Services Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, Compound Administrative Services also agreed to certain indemnification provisions, whereby Compound Administrative Services agreed to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless our Company, including its stockholders, officers, directors, and other agents against claims, liabilities, and expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which arise out of or are related Compound Administrative Services’ services to the Company pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement.

 

The term of the Administrative Services Agreement will continue until it is terminated. The Administrative Services Agreement can be terminated at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice from one party to the other.

 

For additional information, please see the Administrative Services Agreement, which is filed as exhibit 6.1 to the Offering Circular.

Employees

 

We do not have any full-time employees. We are dependent upon the services provided under the Administrative Services Agreement with Compound Administrative Services for our operations.

 

Executive Offices

 

Compound Administrative Services provides office space to us under the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement described above. As described in the Administrative Services Agreement, we will reimburse Compound Administrative Services a to-be-determined portion of the total office expenses associated with this office space. This amount has not been determined as of the date of the Offering Circular.

 

Risk Factors

 

We face risks and uncertainties that could affect us and our business as well as the real estate industry generally. In addition, new risks may emerge at any time and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. These risks could result in a decrease in the value of our Membership Interests. More information ca be found in our Offering Circular, RISK FACTORS beginning on page 6, where are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

 

Investment Company Act

 

The Company is not registered as an Investment Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. If at any time we may be deemed an “investment company,” we believe we will be afforded an exemption under Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the 1940 Act excludes from regulation as an “investment company” any entity that is primarily engaged in the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring “mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate”.

 

Competition

 

We compete with other companies that lend to the sub-prime and short term mortgage industry. These companies include other mortgage lenders. We seek to, but may not be able to effectively compete with, such competitors.

 

We believe we benefit from the following competitive strengths:

 

We appeal to investors who are distrustful of traditional banking institutions. The Compound App and websites (the “Compound Fintech Platform”) are targeted primarily to the millennials who are part of the fastest growing segment of our population. We believe that they have a basic distrust of traditional banking institutions, yet they have a need to accumulate assets for retirement or otherwise. The Compound Fintech Platform provides for a savings and investing alternative for the millennials. We believe Compound provides consumers a better alternative to their low interest accounts.

 

We place assets in an underserved banking sector. Due to higher costs, we believe that banks cannot profitably serve the sub-prime mortgage industries. We believe that this area is one of our competitive strengths because we believe that there are not many lenders who are servicing these borrowers which leaves more room for the Company to pursue opportunities in this sector. Additionally, we believe that this area is one of our competitive strengths because many other lenders are not interested in loans to sub-prime developers who seek to finance their real estate to provide funds for short term development of their properties. However, despite our intentions, we may never be profitable in this sector.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party, as plaintiff or defendant, nor are we aware of any threatened or pending legal proceedings, that we believe to be material or which, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation if determined adversely to us.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in the Offering Circular. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in the Offering Circular. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no guaranty or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

 

Formation

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 2, 2021 initially by Impactology Financial Corporation (“IFC”). On November 4, 2021, we issued 10,001 shares of our common stock to IFC in exchange for $50,100. On March 11, 2022, the Company effected a reverse stock split, reducing the Company’s 10,000,000 authorized shares of common stock to 5,000 shares of common stock. As a result, the 10,001 shares owned by IFC converted to 5 shares of common stock, representing all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Subsequently, on March 17, 2022, IFC transferred all of its 5 shares of the Company’s common stock to CH, which became the new parent of the Company. CH is the sole stockholder of the Company’s common stock, and was formed by the same individuals behind IFC, which is now non-operational. The purpose of establishing CH was a re-branding effort.

 

Results of Operations

 

From November 2, 2021 (our inception) through the date of this report, we have not generated any revenues other than interest earned on cash and cash equivalents. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred $300,110 in total expenses offset by interest income of $9,092, for a net loss of $291,018. This is substantially larger than the $70,420 in operating expenses (with no offsetting revenue) which we incurred for the year ended December 31, 2022. We incurred $10,933 in operating expenses for the period ended June 30, 2022 and $148,597 in operating expenses for the period ended June 30, 2023. The primary reason for the increase in operating expenses was that the Company had begun raising money on the Compound Fintech Platform, resulting in substantial marketing costs, the accrual of interest on the outstanding Compound Bonds, and many of its software related costs incurred to develop the backend computer software and database infrastructure that processes and manages data provided by investors via the Compound Fintech Platform (instead of investment in a Capital Asset). By contrast, the Operating expenses in 2022 and 2021 were primarily comprised of legal and other professional expenses incurred in connection with organizational matters, including our Regulation A Offering.

 

Our Company is an early-stage company. From our inception until September 2022, we were primarily focused on organizational matters, as well as preparing, filing, and obtaining SEC qualification of an offering of up to $75,000,000 worth of Compound Bonds under Tier 2 of Regulation A under the Securities Act (the “Regulation A Offering”). Since the Regulation A Offering was initially qualified on September 19, 2022, we have been focused on raising funds from the sales of our Compound Bonds from investors to fund our principal plan of operations, which is centered primarily around purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate. In addition, the Company may, but has not yet committed to, invest in the following real estate assets: interests in whole pool mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and debt obligations secured by a pool of whole mortgage loans. For further information on our business model and investment strategy, see the section entitled “Our Business” beginning at Page 2 of our Offering Circular above. However, as of the date of this report, we have not yet made any investments in mortgages or other liens on, or interests in, real estate.

As of December 31, 2023, 237,128 Compound Bonds have been sold for $10 each, and approximately 97,850 of those Compound Bonds have been redeemed by investors, leaving 139,278 Compound Bonds outstanding (representing a total liability of $1,435,955, when compounded interest is included). No Compound Bonds had been sold as of December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2024, 300,438 Compound Bonds have been sold for $10 each, and 117,862 of the Compound Bonds have been redeemed by investors, leaving 182,576 Compound Bonds outstanding (representing a total liability of $1,877,873, when compounded interest is included).

 

In order to operate our Company for the next 12 months and begin to execute our business plan, we estimate that a total of $3,000,000 in funds will be required. The source of such funds is anticipated to be the net proceeds from our sales of Compound Bonds in this Regulation A Offering. It is important to note that we will need to sell more than $3,000,000 in Compound Bonds to have a total of $3,000,000 in funds available, since Compound Bonds are repayable on demand and borrowers can redeem their bonds shortly after purchase. For example, as of March 31, 2024 we had raised $3,004,380 through the sale of Compound Bonds, but only had $1,613,864 in cash and cash equivalents, primarily due to redemptions by our bondholders.

 

We do not need to raise the full $74,800,000 to implement our business plan. However, if we fail to generate a total of $25,000,000 from our sales of Compound Bonds (after allowing for bond redemptions), we may not be able to fully carry out our plan of operations. We believe the proceeds from our sales of our Compound Bonds will allow us to operate for twelve months should the total of such amounts equal $3,000,000 or more (after allowing for bond redemptions). However, the extent of our operations will be less depending on the amount of proceeds received.

 

We plan to start acquiring mortgages and interests in real estate and other real estate assets in accordance with our business model as we receive funds from selling the Compound Bonds in the Regulation A Offering through the efforts of the principals of the Company and through a network of referral sources including mortgage brokers, professional and business advisers, commercial banks and Chambers of Commerce and other business and trade organizations. The Company currently does not have any contracts with third parties related to the services it intends to provide.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2024, we had a total of $1,877,872.57 in Compound Bonds outstanding (principal and interest), plus an additional an additional $59,878.87 in other current liabilities and a further additional $126,716.44 owed to related parties, but only $1,613,863.70 in cash and cash equivalents with which to satisfy potential redemptions of Compound Bonds and other liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, we had a total of $1,435,955 worth of Compound Bonds outstanding ($1,392,773 principal + $43,182 interest), plus an additional $41,220 in other current liabilities and a further additional $127,752 owed to related parties, but only $1,236,253 in cash on hand with which to satisfy potential redemptions. We believe that the amount we have raised to date in this Regulation A offering may not be sufficient to fund our expenses over the next twelve months and will not be sufficient to allow us to execute our business plan. As the Company has not generated significant revenues, it will be dependent on the monies raised via its Regulation A offering to fund its operations.

 

We do not have any external sources of capital and are dependent upon advances from CH to provide funds for our operations until we begin receiving proceeds from the sale of Compound Bonds in the Regulation A Offering. CH, however, is under no obligation to advance us any funds. The Company currently has no binding agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. As such, in order for us to close successfully on any potential investments we will need to either raise sufficient additional funds in the offering or be able to borrow adequate funds.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet generated significant revenues and has limited operating history. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of our financial statements.

 

8

 

 

We are dependent on advances from CH and proceeds from the Regulation A Offering to provide capital for our operations. CH is not obligated to provide advances to us and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in raising proceeds in this Regulation A Offering. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Contingent Liabilities

 

We may be subject to lawsuits, investigations, and claims (some of which may involve substantial dollar amounts) that can arise out of our normal business operations. We would continually assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to our contingencies, as well as potential amounts or ranges of probable losses, and recognize a liability, if any, for these contingencies based on a thorough analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. Because most contingencies are resolved over long periods of time, liabilities may change in the future due to new developments (including new discovery of facts, changes in legislation and outcomes of similar cases through the judicial system), changes in assumptions or changes in our settlement strategy. There were no contingent liabilities as of December 31, 2023.

 

Income Taxes

 

Compound Bonds will receive interest income. At the end of the calendar year, investors with over $10 of realized interest will receive a form 1099-INT. These will need to be filed in accordance with the United States Tax Code. Investor’s tax situations will likely vary greatly and all tax and accounting questions should be directed towards a certified public accountant.

 

As of December 31, 2023, we had no federal and state income tax expense.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 3 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report, and we believe those accounting policies are critical to the process of making significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Trends & Uncertainties

 

We intend to use a value driven investing approach where we seek to purchase real estate and real estate related debt for less than what we believe is their intrinsic value. CREB is optimistic about the value investment prospects in the U.S. real estate market, taking into account the present market dynamics and underlying fundamentals up to December 31, 2023. Our strategic approach involves thorough research to identify real estate opportunities in high-demand locations, primed to benefit from trends such as the increasing average cost of first-time home ownership, rising mortgage interest rates, and strict credit standards in the single-family home mortgage market. These factors contribute to the appeal of owning multifamily properties, which resonates with CREB’s commitment to value investing and the Real estate market deal flow

 

Our Company is funded through the sale of Compound Bonds, which are payable on demand, but plans to earn revenue through the investment of that money into relatively illiquid Real Estate assets. This planned pairing of assets and liabilities creates the possibility of more investors requesting withdrawals then we have readily available in liquid assets, which could force us to borrow money or seek to liquidate Real Estate assets on disadvantageous terms to meet the demand for redemptions. Should demand for redemptions exceed our ability to meet such demand with ready reserves, it will have a material effect on our ability to operate.

Compensation Of Directors And Executive Officers

 

Our directors and executive officers will not be separately compensated by us. As described earlier in this Annual Report under “Operations – Administrative Services Agreement with Compound Administrative Services,” under the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement, Compound Administrative Services agreed to provide to the Company certain administrative services, personnel and office facilities, including all equipment and supplies, that are reasonable, necessary or useful for the day-to-day operations of the business of the Company, subject to such written direction provided by the Company to Compound Administrative Services. Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse Compound Administrative Services for the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses for the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement. There is no interest rate or maturity associated with the obligations to reimburse Compound Administrative Services under the Administrative Services Agreement. The reimbursement amounts payable to Compound Administrative Services by the Company will accrue until the Company can make reimbursement payments to Compound Administrative Services from the proceeds of the Regulation A Offering allocated to working capital and distributions from Compound Lending, the Company’s operating subsidiary (generated from the income from the operations from Compound Lending), which reimbursement payments will be made in advance on a monthly basis. The reimbursement amount under the Administrative Services Agreement, will be equal to the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses under the Administrative Services Agreement for the Company and will consist of both a to-be-determined portion of the annual salaries and employee benefits of our executive officers and the other personnel employed by Compound Administrative Services based upon the amount of time they devote to us, as well as a pro-rata allocation of office expenses. We have not yet determined the amount of this monthly reimbursement amount as it will be based on the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses for the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement and as Compound Administrative Services has not yet determined salary payment amounts or the benefits it will provide to our executive officers and the other personnel employed by Compound Administrative Services as of the date of this Annual Report. Our directors will not receive additional compensation for their Board services. We do not expect that this management sharing arrangement will change in the foreseeable future.

 

Mr. Tuli is not an employee or owner of the Company and receives no compensation; however, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Tuli compensation equal to $1,000 per month beginning some time in 2024, as agreed between the Company and Mr. Tuli.

Item 4. Security Ownership of Management and Certain Securityholders

 

At March 31, 2024, the Company had 5 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, all of which were held by CH. The following table sets out, March 31, 2024, the voting securities of CH that are owned by CH’s executive officers, directors, and other persons holding more than 10% of any class of CH’s voting securities or having the right to acquire those securities. Unless specified below, the business address of each of CH’s stockholders is c/o 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 3rd floor, New York, NY 10036. Except as otherwise indicated, the persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of CH’s common stock owned by them, except to the extent that power may be shared with a spouse.

(1) Based on 5 shares of common stock of CH issued and outstanding as of September 9, 2022.

 

Item 5. Interest of Management and Others in Certain Transactions

 

On March 17, 2022, we entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with Compound Administrative Services LLC (“CAS”), an affiliate. The terms of the Administrative Services Agreement with Compound Administrative Services were not negotiated on an arms-length basis and the amounts to be reimbursed thereunder will be equal to the costs incurred by Compound Administrative Services in paying for the staff and office expenses for the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement. The terms of the Administrative Services Agreement are described in Item 1 Business above under the section entitled “Our Business - Operations – Administrative Services Agreement with Compound Administrative Services”.

 

On November 4, 2021, we issued 10,001 shares of our common stock to IFC, our previous parent company, in exchange for $50,100. On March 11, 2022, the Company effected a reverse stock split, reducing the Company’s 10,000,000 authorized shares of common stock to 5,000 shares of common stock. As a result, the 10,001 shares owned by IFC converted to 5 shares of common stock, representing all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Subsequently, on March 17, 2022, IFC transferred all of its 5 shares of the Company’s common stock to CH, which became the new parent of the Company. CH is the sole stockholder of the Company’s common stock, and was formed by the same individuals behind IFC, which is now non-operational. The purpose of establishing CH was a re-branding effort. CH is the sole stockholder of the Company’s common stock.

 

On March 17, 2022, we entered into a verbal agreement (not a written agreement) with CH to pay a license fee to CH in the amount of 2% of the value of the total Compound Bonds sold on the Compound Fintech Platform each year. The license fees paid by us to CH are not used to offset the reimbursements under the Administrative Services Agreement. There are no other terms to such verbal agreement. In light of the fact that our agreement with CH is a verbal contract (rather than a written contract), we and CH are exposed to the following risks:

 

  the risk that we and CH misunderstood an important term or terms of the contract, such as how much was to be paid or what services were to be performed;

 

11

 

 

  the risk that we and CH will have a dispute regarding what was agreed to because we and CH are only relying on memory; and

 

  the risk that a court will not enforce the contract because we and CH may not be able to prove the existence of the contract or its terms.

 

If a dispute arises under our verbal agreement with CH and a court is not willing to enforce the terms of such verbal agreement in our favor, this outcome could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future growth.

 

Our Parent and/or its affiliates have paid for all of the Company’s offering and other expenses, which will be reimbursed by the Company. CAS has paid professional expenses on our behalf which resulted in an amount owed by us to CAS of $29,981 as of December 31, 2022, of 97,845.06 as of December 31, 2023, and $96,809.71 as of March 31, 2024. These amounts are expected to be paid with proceeds from our Regulation A offering offering. Related party debt is due on demand and does not bear interest.

 

Our corporate office address is 1185 Avenue of the Americas 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10036, United States, it is leased by CAS a related party by common ownership. CAS permits us to use this office without charge. It was determined that the current use of the has no material fair value, in consideration that we have no employees, operations or physical assets that occupy the premises and presently uses the location as a business address.

 

We formed a wholly owned subsidiary Compound Lending, LLC (“CLL”) on March 16, 2022. We intend for CLL to operate as a lender of residential and commercial mortgages, a role directly related to our business objectives as an investor in mortgage-backed securities. CLL has not begun operations and has no balances to report on or during December 31, 2023 and 2022 as part of the consolidation.

 

See Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources, and Item 7. Financial Statements, December 31, 2023, Note H – Related Parties, and December 31, 2022, Note 9 – Related Parties, for a discussion of related party transactions, which are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT’S AUDIT REPORT

 

To the Members

Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc.

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc. (a Corporation), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, and the related statements of income, equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc. as of December 31, 2023, and the results of operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc., and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence We have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for Our audit opinion.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, one year from the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but not absolute assurance, and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users made on the basis of these financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

 

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

F-2

 

 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

 

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc.’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control—related matters that we identified during the audit.

COMPOUND REAL ESTATE BONDS INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2023

 

NOTE A – THE ORGANIZATION

 

Nature of Operations and Revenue

 

Impact Bonds, Inc., a Delaware corporation was founded on November 2, 2021. Its name was changed to Compound Real Estate Bonds, Inc. (“the Company’’ or “CBI”) on March 11, 2022. The Company is in the business of issuing debt bonds to raise capital to pool and invest in real estate loans and mortgages that will be issued by its wholly owned subsidiary Compound Lending, LLC (“CLL”) and it has not started to generate revenue. The Company formed its subsidiary, CLL, on March 16, 2022. CLL has not begun operations. The head office of the Company is located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10036, United States.

 

During 2023 Company initiated its marketing and promotional strategy to increase brand awareness and attract potential customers.

 

The Company began to onboard new app users through its digital platform to sell bonds and bondholders began to purchase bonds in January 2023. The issued bonds bear interest at 7% per annum based on 360 days in a year, with interest credited daily to the bondholders’ accounts. The bonds are redeemable at any time given five (5) days’ notice by the bondholder/Payee. The par value plus any accrued but unpaid interest is included in the redemption amount.

 

The Company plans to use these proceeds to purchase mortgages and generate income on these mortgages. No mortgages have been purchased and no income has been generated to date. All subsequent payments made to bondholders were redemptions paid in accordance with the bondholder agreement.

 

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Financial Statement Presentation

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers cash, money market accounts and short-term, highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, as cash in the financial statements. The balance of cash is held in FDIC insured bank accounts. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2023. The Company’s cash balance is $1,236,253 at December 31, 2023.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The company follows accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014 -09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under this guidance revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services.

 

See independent accountant’s audit report

 

F-8

 

 

Taxes

 

Income

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has not been provided because the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future periods.

 

The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The cost of all advertising is expensed as incurred by the Company. Advertising and marketing costs for 2023 are $62,643.

 

Capitalization Policy

 

Assets over $500 are capitalized and depreciated, or amortized, according to Company depreciation/amortization policies.

 

Depreciation

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years.

 

Amortization

 

Intangible assets are amortized over a 5-year period. Amortization expense and accumulated amortization for 2023 is $7,630. For the year ended December 31, 2023, software development totals $30,521.

 

Leases

 

The company follows ASU No. 2017-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as “lessees,” to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2017-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The Company holds no leases that meet the requirement for inclusion in the financial statements.

 

See independent accountant’s audit report

 

F-9

 

 

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows FASB ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities are required to use a forward-looking expected loss model to evaluate impairment, potentially resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Enhanced disclosures are also required, including a requirement to disclose the information used to track credit quality by year or origination for most financing receivables.

 

Related Party Disclosures

 

Under ASC 850 “Related Party Transactions” an entity or person is considered to be a ‘‘related party’’ if it has control, significant influence or is a key member of management personnel. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company in accordance with the standard ASC 850 presents disclosures about related party transactions and outstanding balances with related parties,

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

In accordance with ASC 820 ‘Fair Vaine Measurement” the Company categorizes financial instruments in a ‘fair value hierarchy’. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The following are the three categories related to the fair value measurement of such assets or liabilities:

 

Level 1 - inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date, it holds a position in a single asset or liability and the asset or liability is traded in an active market.

 

Level 2 - inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (‘market-corroborated inputs’).

 

Level 3 - inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. An entity develops unobservable inputs using the best information available in the circumstances, which might include the entity’s own data, taking into account all information about market participant assumptions that is reasonably available.

 

Intangible Assets

 

In accordance with ASC No. 350-40, internal use software are Intangible assets that are not sold, leased or marketed but are acquired or internally developed to meet an entity’s internal needs. Such intangibles have an estimable useful life, are amortized over this period and reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Accordingly, amortization of the asset is determined from the date it is placed in service. The Company acquired software in 2022 to facilitate the issuance of bonds to clients. The software was placed in service during 2023.

 

Share Capital

 

In accordance with ASC 505 “Equity’’ the Company considers an equity instrument to be any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all its liabilities. The Company’s common shares are classified as equity instruments. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares are recognized in equity as a reduction from the gross proceeds received from the issued shares. Share capital is reported on the balance sheet and statement of changes in shareholder’s equity.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The financial statements present balances of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. The subsidiary CLL has not begun operations and has no values to report as part of the consolidation as of December 31, 2023. In accordance with ASC Topic 810 “Consolidation”, intercompany accounts and transactions would be eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

 

Under ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share”, public companies shall present basic and diluted per-share amounts for income from continuing operations and for net income on the face of the income statement with equal prominence. The Company presents this information accordingly, because it is qualified by the SEC for a Regulation A offering, which allows it to raise capital of up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds. Basic EPS shall be computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) during the period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period shall be weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The Company had no dilutive instruments on December 31, 2023.

 

NOTE C – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

At December 31, 2023 The Company had $46,668 in receivables due for compound bonds sold prior to yearend.

 

NOTE D – COMPOUND BONDS

 

The Company offers compound bonds in increments of $10. These bonds have no maturity date and carry a fixed interest rate of 7.00% per annum from the date that purchase funds have cleared. The bonds are subject to repayment at the demand of the bond holders, at any time. As of December 31, 2023, there are $1,392,773 worth of compound bonds outstanding.

 

NOTE E – COMPOUND BONDS ACCRUED INTEREST PAYABLE

 

Compound bonds that the Company has outstanding at December 31, 2023 have accrued interest in the amount of $43,182 at year end.

 

NOTE F – CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject CBI to credit risk, consist principally of cash. Cash deposits are maintained with a financial institution in the USA that is credit worthy. CBI maintains all cash with a bank insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. CBI at inception adopted a policy to closely monitor economic and regulatory conditions as it relates to federally uninsured balances, to promptly mitigate risks. Currently, CBI’s only source of capital to initiate and sustain operations came from its sole shareholder and parent company.

 

CBI has not generated revenues nor begun operations on December 31, 2023. Nevertheless, the Company is qualified by the SEC for Regulation A offering which will allow it to raise capital up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds. It plans to use this capital to begin implementation of its business plan.

NOTE G – EQUITY

 

On November 4, 2021, the founder of the Company, Impactology Financial Corporation (‘lFC”), contributed $50,100 in cash for the initial issuance of 10,001 shares of common stock.

 

On March 11, 2022, the Company had a reverse stock split, converting its 10,000,000 authorized common shares to 5,000 common shares and retained its par value at $0.0001. As a result, its 10,001 common shares issued and outstanding converted to 5 common shares issued and outstanding.

 

During 2022 and 2023, the sole shareholder of the Company contributed cash in the amount of $26,315 and 46,150, respectively for operational expenses.

 

NOTE H RELATED PARTIES

 

In 2021 the Company received capital contributions from IFC, its parent company and sole shareholder for the issuance of common shares.

 

CBI’s corporate office address is 1185 Avenue of the Americas 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10036, United States, it is leased by Compound Administrative Services LLC (“CAS”) a related party by common ownership. CAS permits the Company to use this office without charge. It was determined that the current use of the has no material fair value, in consideration that CBI has no employees, operations or physical assets that occupy the premises and presently uses the location as a business address.

 

The current total due to CAS is 97,770 at December 31, 2023. Related party debt is due on demand and does not bear interest. In addition, $29,981 is due to the owner at December 31, 2023.

 

The Company formed CLL on March 16, 2022. The company intends for CLL to operate as a lender of residential and commercial mortgages, a role directly related to CBl’s business objectives as an investor in mortgage-backed securities. CLL has not begun operations and has no balances to report on or during December 31, 2023.

 

NOTE I – RISK MANAGEMENT AND UNCERTAINTY

 

Insurance

 

The Company is exposed to various risks of loss related to tort, theft of, damage to and destruction of assets, errors and omissions, and job-related illness or injuries to employees for which it carries commercial insurance to cover the risk of loss for both property and business liability. There are no known claims of incidents that may result in the assumption of material claims arising from potential losses as of December 31, 2023.

 

General

 

Business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn or otherwise, changes in regulations or restrictions in imports, competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Company is operating as a going concern.

 

Cash

 

At times during the year 2023, the Company maintained cash balances with banks in excess of the federally insured amount. This occurrence is not uncommon for businesses which receive cash amounts similar to those the Company does.

 

See independent accountant’s audit report

 

F-12

 

 

NOTE J – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet generated revenues. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. The Company has qualified by the SEC for Regulation A offering which allows it to raise capital of up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds.

 

No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve success without seeking additional financing. There also can be no assurances that the Form 1-A will result in additional financing or that any additional financing required can be obtained or obtained on reasonable terms acceptable to the Company. These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. In 2023, the Company has an operating loss of $270,536. The current working capital as of December 31,2023 is $1,198,517.

 

NOTE K – DATE OF MANAGEMENT’S REVIEW

 

In preparing the financial statements, The Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through April 3, 2024, the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the Shareholder of
Compound Real Estate Bonds, Inc.

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Compound Real Estate Bonds, Inc. (“CBI” or “the Company”), a Delaware corporation, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statement of operations and changes in shareholder’s equity, and of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and from inception (November 2, 2021) to December 31, 2021, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from inception to December 31, 2021, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not commenced generating revenues and will require additional financing to sustain operations and initiate the generation of revenues, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of CBI and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about CBI ’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

 

F-14

 

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

 

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of CBI’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about CBI ’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Impact Bonds, Inc., a Delaware corporation was founded on November 2, 2021. Its name was changed to Compound Real Estate Bonds, Inc. (“the Company” or “CBI”) on March 11, 2022. The Company is in the business of issuing debt bonds to raise capital to pool and invest in real estate loans and mortgages that will be issued by its wholly owned subsidiary Compound Lending, LLC (“CLL”) and it has not begun to generate revenue. The Company formed, its subsidiary, CLL on March 16, 2022. CLL has not begun operations. The head office of the Company is located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10036, United States.

 

The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31st.

 

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet generated revenues. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. On December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company incurred losses of $70,420 and $26,298, respectively. However, on September 19, 2022, the Company was qualified by the SEC for Reg A offering which allows it to raise capital of up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds to the public.

 

No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve success without seeking additional financing. There also can be no assurances that filing a Form 1-A will result in additional financing or that any additional financing required can be obtained, or obtained on reasonable terms acceptable to the Company. These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or (“U.S. GAAP”) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), the Accounting Standards Update(“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are expressed in US Dollars. Significant accounting policies applicable to the Company are summarized as follows:

 

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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

For purposes of reporting within the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid securities purchased with a maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

 

Related party disclosures

 

Under ASC 850 “Related Party Transactions” an entity or person is considered to be a “related party” if it has control, significant influence or is a key member of management personnel. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company in accordance with the standard ASC 850 presents disclosures about related party transactions and outstanding balances with related parties, see Note 9.

 

F-20

 

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

In accordance with ASC 820 ‘Fair Value Measurement” the Company categorizes financial instruments in a ‘fair value hierarchy’. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The following are the three categories related to the fair value measurement of such assets or liabilities:

 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date, it holds a position in a single asset or liability and the asset or liability is traded in an active market.

 

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (‘market-corroborated inputs’).

 

Level 3 inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. An entity develops unobservable inputs using the best information available in the circumstances, which might include the entity’s own data, taking into account all information about market participant assumptions that is reasonably available.

 

The Company has no financial instruments requiring hierarchy classification and disclosure.

 

Intangible assets

 

In accordance with ASC No. 350-40, internal use software are Intangible assets that are not sold, leased or marketed but are acquired or internally developed to meet an entity’s internal needs. Such intangibles have an estimable useful life, are amortized over this period and reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Accordingly, amortization of the asset is determined from the date it is placed in service. The Company acquired software in 2022 to facilitate the issuance of bonds to clients. The software was not placed in service during 2022. The Company therefore has no accumulated amortization or amortization expense in 2022.

 

Income taxes

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been provided because the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future periods.

 

The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

 

Share capital

 

In accordance with ASC 505 “Equity” the Company considers an equity instrument to be any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all its liabilities. The Company’s common shares are classified as equity instruments. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares are recognized in equity as a reduction from the gross proceeds received from the issued shares. Share capital is reported on the balance sheet and statement of changes in shareholder’s equity.

 

F-21

 

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements present the balances of the Company. Its wholly owned subsidiary CLL has not begun operations and has no values to report as part of the consolidation as of December 31, 2022. In accordance with ASC Topic 810 “Consolidation”, intercompany accounts and transactions would be eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share

 

Under ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share”, public companies shall present basic and diluted per-share amounts for income from continuing operations and for net income on the face of the income statement with equal prominence. The Company presents this information accordingly, because it is qualified by the SEC for a Reg A offering, which allows it to raise capital of up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds. Basic EPS shall be computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) during the period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period shall be weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The Company had no dilutive instruments on December 31, 2022 and 2021, and therefore the basic and dilutive loss per share on the statement of operations are the same, at an amount of $14,084 and $6,430, respectively.

 

Recently issued accounting standards

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The standard also requires additional disclosures related to significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. Operating lease receivables are excluded from the scope of this guidance. The amended guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning January 1, 2023. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable to the Company, the Company has not identified any new standards that it believes merit further discussion, and the Company expects that none would have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 4. CONCENTRATION AND CREDIT RISK

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject CBI to credit risk, consist principally of cash. Cash deposits are maintained with a financial institution in the USA that is credit worthy. CBI maintains all cash with a bank insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. CBI at inception adopted a policy to closely monitor economic and regulatory conditions as it relates to federally uninsured balances, to promptly mitigate risks. No deposits were held with a financial institution in excess of federally insured limits on December 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021, and during the reporting periods. Currently, CBI’s only source of capital to initiate and sustain operations came from its sole shareholder and parent company.

 

CBI has not generated revenues nor begun operations on December 31, 2022 and 2021. Nevertheless, the Company is qualified by the SEC for Regulation A offering which will allow it to raise capital up to $75 million from the issuance of bonds. It plans to use this capital to begin implementation of its business plan.

NOTE 5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

During 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a media company to have a mobile app and website developed permitting it to communicate with clients and issue bonds. The company paid $38,152 for these services. The development and maintenance of these applications will be ongoing throughout the life of the business. These assets were not placed into service in 2022. Therefore, the Company incurred no amortization expense during 2022, nor was there an accumulated amortization balance on December 31, 2022. On December 31, 2022, and 2021 balance details for intangible assets were as follows:

The tax effect of significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities on December 31, 2022 and 2021, are estimated to be as follows:

On November 4, 2021, the founder of the Company, Impactology Financial Corporation (“IFC”), contributed $50,100 in cash for the initial issuance of 10,001 shares of common stock.

 

On March 11, 2022, the Company had a reverse stock split, converting its, 10,000,000 authorized common shares to 5,000 common shares and retained its par value at $0.0001. As a result, its 10,001 common shares issued and outstanding converted to 5 common shares issued and outstanding.

 

During 2022, the sole shareholder of the Company contributed cash in the amount of $26,315 for operational expenses.

CBI’s corporate office address is 1185 Avenue of the Americas 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10036, United States, it is leased by Compound Administrative Services LLC (“CAS”) a related party by common ownership. CAS permits the Company to use this office without charge. It was determined that the current use of the has no material fair value, in consideration that CBI has no employees, operations or physical assets that occupy the premises and presently uses the location as a business address.

 

During 2022 CAS paid professional expenses on behalf of CBI which resulted in an amount owed by CBI to CAS of $29,981. Related party debt is due on demand and does not bear interest.

 

The Company formed CLL on March 16, 2022. The company intends for CLL to operate as a lender of residential and commercial mortgages, a role directly related to CBI’s business objectives as an investor in mortgage-backed securities. CLL has not begun operations and has no balances to report on or during December 31, 2022 and 2021 as part of the consolidation.

 

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has evaluated the consolidated financial statements for subsequent events through April 28, 2023, the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

The Company began to onboard new app users through its digital platform to sell bonds and bondholders began to purchase bonds in January 2023. The issued bonds bear interest at 7% per annum based on 360 days in a year, with interest credited daily to the bondholders’ accounts. The bonds are redeemable at any time given a five (5) days’ notice by the bondholder/Payee. The par value plus any accrued but unpaid interest is included in the redemption amount.

 

The Company plans to use these proceeds to purchase mortgages and generate income on these mortgages. No mortgages have been purchased and no income has been generated to date.

 

All subsequent payments made to bondholders were redemptions paid in accordance with the bondholder agreement.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that may result from these conditions.

 

Management is not aware of any other events that have occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date that would require adjustment to, or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
