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

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from real estate sales under the full accrual method. Under the
full accrual method, profit may be realized in full when real estate is sold, provided (1) the
profit is determinable and (2) the earnings process is virtually complete (the Company is not
obligated to perform significant activities after the sale to earn the profit). The Company
recognizes revenue from its real estate sales transactions on the closing date.
The Company also generates minimal rental income between the periods when a real estate project
is occupied through the closing date on which the project is sold. In addition, the Company
recognizes interest revenue on projects that are funded up front. Rental income is recognized in
the month earned.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates have been made by management with respect to the fair values utilized for
calculating the Companys impairments on real estate projects. For the quarters ended March 31,
2010 and 2009 we recognized $-0- and $115,000 respectively in impairment losses.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts
receivables and payables. The carrying values of assets and liabilities approximate fair value
due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of notes payable and debt issued by
financial institutions approximate fair value as of March 31, 2010 due to the notes carrying
variable interest rates. The carrying value of notes payable to related parties cannot be
determined due to the nature of these agreements. The Company has consistently applied this
valuation technique in all the periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, ASC guidance for fair value measurements and disclosure was updated to require
additional disclosures related to transfers in and out of level 1 and 2 fair value measurements
and enhanced detail in the level 3 reconciliation. The guidance was amended to clarify the level
of disaggregation required for assets and liabilities and the disclosures required for inputs
and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities that fall in
either level 2 or level 3. The updated guidance was effective for the Companys fiscal year
beginning January 1, 2010, with the exception of the level 3 disaggregation which is effective
for the Companys fiscal year beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption had no impact on the
Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Refer to Note 9
Impairment of Assets for further details regarding the Companys real estate assets measured
at fair value. Refer to Note 1 section Fair Value of Financials Instruments for additional
details for the Companys measurement of other assets and liabilities at fair value.
7
There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued during 2010 and 2009,
none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial
position, operations
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and
various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are
reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under
different future conditions.
We believe that the estimates and assumptions that are most important to the portrayal of our
financial condition and results of operations, in that they require subjective or complex
judgments, form the basis for the accounting policies deemed to be most critical to us. These
relate to bad debts, impairment of intangible assets, long lived assets, and deferred income
taxes contractual adjustments to revenue, and contingencies and litigation. We believe
estimates and assumptions related to these critical accounting policies are appropriate under
the circumstances; however, should future events or occurrences result in unanticipated
consequences, there could be a material impact on our future financial conditions or results of
operations.
The Company recognizes revenue from real estate sales under the full accrual method. Under the
full accrual method, profit may be realized in full when real estate is sold, provided (1) the
profit is determinable and (2) the earnings process is virtually complete (the Company is not
obligated to perform significant activities after the sale to earn the profit). The Company
recognizes revenue from its real estate sales transactions on the closing date.
The Company also generates minimal rental income and management fee income between the periods
when a real estate project is occupied through the closing date on which the project is sold.
Rental income and management fee income is recognized in the month earned.
We periodically evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
fully recoverable. We evaluate events or changes in circumstances based on a number of factors
including operating results, business plans and forecasts, general and industry trends and,
economic projections and anticipated cash flows. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted
expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. Impairment
losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value
and are recognized in earnings. We also continually evaluate the estimated useful lives of all
long-lived assets and periodically revise such estimates based on current events.
The Company evaluates the accounts receivables and note receivables on an ongoing basis. When
an account is older than 30 days past due, we use the allowance method for recognizing bad
debts. When an account is determined to be uncollectible, it is written off against the
allowance.
Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of share-based
awards that are expected to vest during the period. As stock compensation expense recognized in
the statement of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has not been
reduced for estimated forfeitures because they are estimated to be negligible. Forfeitures are
estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Deferred income taxes are provided for under the asset and liability method. Under this method,
deferred tax assets, including those related to tax loss carry forwards and credits, and
liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax
assets when it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.
ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants. ASC 820 also requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for
assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must
be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that
are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the
reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
8
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts of
financial assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis include real estate
held for sale which approximates fair value as determined by using the future expected net
cashflows on the sale of the property. The valuation of real estate held for sale is considered
Level 2 fair value measures under ASC 820.
(2) Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring
losses, has used significant cash in support of its operating activities, has a limited
operating history and is reliant upon funding commitments with two significant shareholders.
These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going
concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern. The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. The Company plans to generate the necessary cash flows with
increased sales revenue over the next 12 months. However, should the Companys sales not provide
sufficient cash flow the Company has plans to raise additional working capital through debt
and/or equity financings. There is no assurance the Company will be successful in producing
increased sales revenues or obtaining additional funding through debt and equity financings.
The Company currently relies on its majority shareholder, GDBA Investments, LLC (GDBA), and
another significant shareholder, BOCO Investments, LLC (BOCO), to provide a substantial amount
of its debt and equity financing. The Company expects to rely upon both GDBA and BOCO for
funding commitments in the foreseeable future.
(3) Real Estate Held for Sale
When a project is completed and a certificate of occupancy is issued, the assets for the project
under land held for sale and construction in progress are reclassified and combined into real
estate held for sale. In cases where we own raw land and have made the business decision not to
move forward on development, the property is also reclassified into real estate held for sale.

(6) Notes Receivable
On October 15, 2008 we entered into a financing with American Child Care Properties to complete
the construction of three Tutor Time facilities in Las Vegas, NV. The financing was structured
as a $3.9 million note to be drawn for construction as completed in addition to various
reserves. Subsequent to the issuance of this note, American Child Care Properties was acquired
by RCS Capital Development, LLC. We finalized an assumption and extension agreement whereby the
maturity was extended to April 15, 2010, with one optional six-month extension. Because it was
also determined that there was greater capacity than would be needed on the portion that had yet
to be drawn, the total loan size was decreased to $3.6 million to better suit the needs of the
borrower. The interest rate of 13.07% remains unchanged and we have a first deed of trust on two
of the properties in addition to a personal guarantee from RCS Capital Developments principal.
We are working with RCS to exercise the six-month extension. As of March 31, 2010, the full amount of the note was drawn.
During the course of acquiring properties for development, the Company, on behalf of its
subsidiaries and development partners, typically is required to provide capital for earnest
money deposits that may or may not be refundable in addition to investing in
entitlements for properties before the actual land purchase. Because these activities represent
a risk of our capital in the event the land purchase is not completed, it is our policy to
require our development partners to personally sign promissory notes to the Company for all
proceeds expended before land is purchased. Once the land has been purchased and we can
collateralize the capital invested by us, the promissory note is cancelled. The Company had
$638,297 in earnest money deposits outstanding and an allowance for the full outstanding amount
as of March 31, 2010. These deposits were held by our development partners who have each secured
them through promissory notes held by us. These promissory notes are callable on demand or due
within a year and carry an interest rate between 12% and 12.5% per annum.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for
income tax purposes.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the realization of future taxable
income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management
considers past history, the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected
future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. A valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The majority of our NOL carryforwards
will expire through the year 2030. The company has recognized a full valuation allowance.
(8) Notes Payable
United Western Bank Senior Credit Facility
On May 7, 2007, we entered into a $25 million senior credit facility with United Western Bank.
This commitment permits us to fund construction notes for build-to-suit real estate projects for
national and regional chain retailers. The financing is facilitated through a series of
promissory notes. Each note is issued for individual projects under the facility and must be
underwritten and approved by United Western Bank and has a term of 12 months with one (1)
allowable extension not to exceed 6 months subject to approval. Interest is funded from an
interest reserve established with each construction loan. The interest rate on each note is
equal to Prime rate minus 50 basis points Each note under the facility is for an amount, as
determined by United Western Bank, not to exceed the lesser of 75% of the appraised value of the
real property under the approved appraisal for the project or 75% of the project costs.
Principal on each note is due at maturity, with no prepayment penalty. United Western Bank
retains a First Deed of Trust on each property financed.
We did not renew this facility on May 7, 2008 when it matured, although notes issued while the
facility existed were still subject to their full one-year maturity and extension provisions as
prescribed under the agreement.
As of March 31, 2010, we had two outstanding notes originally issued under this facility. One
note had a principal balance of $2,135,297 as of March 31, 2010 and matured on March 1, 2010.
Total accrued interest on this note through March 31, 2010 is $148,013. We are currently
working with the bank to extend the terms on this note. The second note has a principal balance
of $3,568,995 as of March 31, 2010 and matures on March 24, 2011. Total accrued interest on
this note through March 31, 2010 is $132,004.
(9) Impairment of Assets
We invest significantly in real estate assets. Accordingly, our policy on asset impairment is
considered a critical accounting estimate. Management periodically evaluates the Companys real
estate held for sale to determine whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that a
possible impairment in the carrying values of the assets has occurred. As part of this
evaluation, and in accordance with FASB, the Company records the carrying value of the property
at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs.
The amount the Company will ultimately realize on these asset sales could differ from the amount
recorded in the financial statements. The Company engages real estate brokers to assist in
determining the estimated selling price or when external opinions are not available uses their
own market knowledge. The estimated selling costs are based on the Companys experience with
similar asset sales. The Company records an impairment charge and writes down an assets
carrying value if the carrying value exceeds the estimated selling price less costs to sell. In
the Companys valuation of its impairment on real estate, level 2 inputs were utilized to
determine the fair value of those assets.
We recognized $-0- and $115,500 of impairments for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively.

Overview and History
HISTORY
We were founded in 2003 as a development partner, providing 100% financing for build-to-suit,
small-box retail development projects throughout the United States. Offering 100% financing for
our development partners consisted of providing equity or subordinated debt for approximately
twenty-five percent of a projects cost and utilizing our senior debt facilities to provide a
construction loan for the other seventy-five percent of the projects cost. While we provided
the capital for the project, our development partners responsibility was to obtain a lease,
develop, market and sell the project once complete. In exchange for providing all of the
capital, we took a controlling interest in the project and received 50% of the profits when the
project was sold, with a minimum profit threshold for us in order to protect our downside.
In order to facilitate growth, we focused on building our companys infrastructure, particularly
in the areas of deal generation, underwriting, and operations, as well as in finance and
accounting. Early on, we implemented a growth strategy of creating a distributed sales force
throughout the United States focused on creating relationships with developers and qualifying
deals for us to finance. Once deals were generated, it was estimated that they would be
developed and sold within seven to ten months. At that point revenues would be generated and
capital returned to be recycled into new projects.
Beginning in March 2008, with the changing of our management team, we re-assessed our business
model and drew the following conclusions: 1) Our development partners had no hard investment in
the projects and were not properly incentivized to continue projects when expected profitability
fell; 2) Our investment program and marketing efforts did not cater to high quality sponsors
with whom we could generate profitable, repeat business; 3) While successful projects proved to
be highly profitable, portfolio experience demonstrated that downside risk was larger than
originally anticipated; 4) While there are many transactions that worked within our target
market, we were unlikely to meet our growth objectives given the limited scope of our
addressable market; and 5) Our corporate infrastructure and cost structure was too large for the
production levels that we were achieving.
In 2008, we intended to significantly expand our business model in order to take advantage of
changed market opportunities and more efficiently and profitably deploy our capital going
forward. We broadened our target property types beyond small-box, single-tenant retail to
include office, industrial, multi-family, multi-tenant retail, hospitality and select land
transactions. In addition, we expanded our financial product offerings to focus on preferred
equity, mezzanine debt and high yield bridge loans.
This expanded model focused on investing in higher-quality, more experienced developers, owners
and operators. These target partners typically have equity capital to invest and are able to
secure senior debt for their projects, but require additional capital, particularly in todays
capital market environment, to bridge the gap between senior debt and their available equity.
We seek to fill this gap with preferred equity or mezzanine debt. While we intend to continue
to provide up to 100% of a projects required equity, typically our partner is contributing a
meaningful amount of capital to the project. These preferred equity and mezzanine structures
allow us to invest in larger transactions, with higher quality partners, at lower risk but
higher risk-adjusted returns than transactions in which we have previously invested.
We are also focused on select high-yield bridge loans, whole loan acquisitions, and limited
partnership interest acquisitions. Particularly in the near term, we see excellent
opportunities in these areas as a result of volatile capital market conditions. Given our more
nimble investment parameters and processes, we are well positioned to take advantage of such
opportunities. This
strategy also requires fewer employees to manage allowing us to dramatically reduce our staff
and lower our expenses. Our plan is to remain a streamlined organization with greater
efficiencies and cost savings.
13
We have significantly restructured our capitalization, strengthened our balance sheet, and
better positioned ourselves for future growth. On June 30, 2008, our two major investors, GDBA
Investments LLC and BOCO Investments, LLC converted $6 million in subordinated debt to common
equity shares. The interest rate on the remaining $14 million in subordinated debt was also
reduced by 500 basis points. In addition, GDBA, BOCO and Joseph Zimlich converted $6.2 million
in convertible preferred stock, which carried a 5% dividend, to common stock. These
transactions have significantly reduced the Companys cost of capital, reduced the Companys
interest and preferred dividend burden by over $1.67 million per year, and restored our
shareholders equity to over $6.5 million.
We also changed the name of our company to CapTerra Financial Group, Inc. This name change
reflects an effort to present a fresh face to our target market and to re-brand as a more
flexible company. Our re-branding effort also includes a redesigned website and increased focus
on marketing and messaging materials.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
While we believe there continues to be significant opportunities created by the tightened credit
markets, in January 2009 we made the strategic decision to take a measured approach to our
growth in these markets. Rather than simultaneously working on disposing of our legacy deal
portfolio, raising additional capital and pursuing new deals, we have chosen to focus on the
liquidation of our existing portfolio first, freeing up existing invested capital, and then
moving forward with our growth plan and actively pursuing deals. By taking this approach we can
more efficiently allocate our resources and conserve cash while we free up existing capital for
new deals. This approach also requires a significantly smaller staff during the initial phase.
In 2009, we decreased our staff to three individuals and moved into a smaller office facility
that we sub-lease, substantially decreasing our operating expenses.
In January, 2010, we entered into negotiations with a private real estate development company
for the purpose of potentially acquiring that company. At the present time, we have no
definitive arrangements to do so and have not finalized any material terms of the potential
acquisition. However, at this time, we believe that if we do enter into a definitive agreement
for acquisition, it will result in a change of control of our company. We do not know when, or
if, this acquisition will ever be completed.
Our principal business address is 1440 Blake Street, Suite 310, Denver, Colorado 80202.
We have not been subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
Results of Operations
The following discussion involves our results of operations for the quarters ending March 31,
2010 and March 31, 2009.
Our revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 were $82,918 compared to $2,218,155 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2009. We sold no projects in the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 and
one project for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 totaling $1,992,151. Revenue from project
sales will continue to be dependent on our ability to sell our existing properties under current
market conditions. Rental income for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $82,918 compared to
$98,023 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. We had no management fees for the quarters ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009. We had no financing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2010
compared to $127,981 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.
We recognize cost of sales on projects during the period in which they are sold. We had
$1,967,022 of cost of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The Companys cost of sales
will coincide with revenues as existing projects are sold.
Selling, general and administrative costs were $256,399 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010
compared to selling, general and administrative costs of $572,559 for the quarter ended March
31, 2009. We continue to actively manage our selling, general and administrative expense in
order to control costs and conserve cash for the Company.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, our net deferred tax asset was $ -0- consisting of
$9,476,000 of deferred taxes and a matching amount of $9,476,000 for the tax allowance. As of
March 31, 2009 we recognized a $7,665,000 deferred tax asset and a matching deferred tax
allowance for a balance of $ -0-.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2010 we recognized $-0- impairment expense compared to
$115,500 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. We believe our balance sheet correctly reflects
the current fair value of our projects; however, we will continue to test for impairment on each
of the properties in our portfolio on a yearly basis or as triggering events occur.
We had a net loss of $588,122 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to a net loss of
$839,308 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Net loss available to common shareholders was
$588,122 and $839,308 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010
and 2009 respectively.
14
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents were $220,769 on March 31, 2010 compared to $496,943 on December 31,
2009.
Cash used in operating activities was $245,588 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to
cash used in operating activities of $109,247 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. This change
was primarily the result of fewer projects under construction in 2009. We anticipate our cash
used in operating activities to decline substantially during the next several quarters as we
focus on the disposition of our properties held for sale.
Cash provided by investing activities was $-0- for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and March
31, 2009.
Cash used by financing activities was $30,586 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to
cash provided by financing activities of $60,158 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. We
anticipate our cash provided by financing activities to be insignificant during the next several
quarters as we focus on the disposition of our properties held for sale.
Based on our cash balance, we may not have adequate cash available to meet all of our
obligations with regard to operating capital and project equity required over the next three
months. We continue to work with our existing investors and are seeking additional investors
to secure the capital required to fund our operations going forward. In addition, a significant
portion of our debt is short term in nature and will mature over the next twelve months. We
believe that we will continue to be able to extend these various facilities as they mature;
however, if we are unable to do so it would have a materially negative impact on our ability to
continue our operations going forward.
Management continues to assess our capital resources in relation to our ability to fund
continued operations on an ongoing basis. As such, management may seek to access the capital
markets to raise additional capital through the issuance of additional equity, debt or a
combination of both in order to fund our operations and continued growth.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, ASC guidance for fair value measurements and disclosure was updated to require
additional disclosures related to transfers in and out of level 1 and 2 fair value measurements
and enhanced detail in the level 3 reconciliation. The guidance was amended to clarify the level
of disaggregation required for assets and liabilities and the disclosures required for inputs
and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities that fall in
either level 2 or level 3. The updated guidance was effective for the Companys fiscal year
beginning January 1, 2010, with the exception of the level 3 disaggregation which is effective
for the Companys fiscal year beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption had no impact on the
Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Refer to Note 9
Impairment of Assets for further details regarding the Companys real estate assets measured
at fair value. Refer to Note 1 section Fair Value of Financials Instruments for additional
details for the Companys measurement of other assets and liabilities at fair value.
There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued during 2010 and 2009,
none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial
position, operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and
various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are
reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under
different future conditions.
We believe that the estimates and assumptions that are most important to the portrayal of our
financial condition and results of operations, in that they require subjective or complex
judgments, form the basis for the accounting policies deemed to be most critical to us. These
relate to bad debts, impairment of intangible assets, long lived assets, and deferred income
taxes contractual adjustments to revenue, and contingencies and litigation. We believe
estimates and assumptions related to these critical accounting policies are appropriate under
the circumstances; however, should future events or occurrences result in unanticipated
consequences, there could be a material impact on our future financial conditions or results of
operations.

The Company recognizes revenue from real estate sales under the full accrual method. Under the
full accrual method, profit may
be realized in full when real estate is sold, provided (1) the profit is determinable and
(2) the earnings process is virtually complete (the Company is not obligated to perform
significant activities after the sale to earn the profit). The Company recognizes revenue from
its real estate sales transactions on the closing date.
The Company also generates minimal rental income and management fee income between the periods
when a real estate project is occupied through the closing date on which the project is sold.
Rental income and management fee income is recognized in the month earned.
We periodically evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
fully recoverable. We evaluate events or changes in circumstances based on a number of factors
including operating results, business plans and forecasts, general and industry trends and,
economic projections and anticipated cash flows. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted
expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. Impairment
losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value
and are recognized in earnings. We also continually evaluate the estimated useful lives of all
long-lived assets and periodically revise such estimates based on current events.
The Company evaluates the accounts receivables and note receivables on an ongoing basis. When
an account is older that 30 days past due, we use the allowance method for recognizing bad
debts. When an account is determined to be uncollectible, it is written off against the
allowance.
Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of share-based
awards that are expected to vest during the period. As stock compensation expense recognized in
the statement of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has not been
reduced for estimated forfeitures because they are estimated to be negligible. Forfeitures are
estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Deferred income taxes are provided for under the asset and liability method. Under this method,
deferred tax assets, including those related to tax loss carry forwards and credits, and
liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax
assets when it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.
ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants. ASC 820 also requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for
assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must
be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that
are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the
reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts of
financial assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis include real estate
held for sale which approximates fair value as determined by using the future expected net
cashflows on the sale of the property. The valuation of real estate held for sale is considered
Level 2 fair value measures under ASC 820.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
None.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on an evaluation of our disclosure
controls and procedures as defined under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer have each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our
most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not
subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only managements report in the
annual report on Form 10-K affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings, to which we are a party, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below; and all of the other
information included in this document. Any of the following risks could materially adversely
affect our business, financial condition or operating results and could negatively impact the
value of your investment.
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE. WE WERE UNPROFITABLE FOR OUR
THREE MOST RECENT FISCAL YEAR ENDS.
Our revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 were $82,918. We had a net loss of $588,122
for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2010 we have an accumulated deficit of
$27,426,250. We have been unprofitable for our three most recent fiscal year ends. We have only
completed a limited number of transactions, so it continues to be difficult for us to accurately
forecast our quarterly and annual revenue. However, we use our forecasted revenue to establish
our expense budget. Most of our expenses are fixed in the short term or incurred in advance of
anticipated revenue. As a result, we may not be able to decrease our expenses in a timely manner
to offset any revenue shortfall. We attempt to keep revenues in line with expenses but cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
BECAUSE WE HAVE RECURRING LOSSES, HAVE USED SIGNIFICANT CASH IN SUPPORT OF OUR OPERATING
ACTIVITIES, HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND ARE RELIANT UPON FUNDING COMMITMENTS WITH TWO
SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS, OUR ACCOUNTANTS HAVE EXPRESSED DOUBTS ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS
A GOING CONCERN.
For the year ended December 31, 2009, our accountants have expressed doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern as a result of recurring losses, the use of significant cash in
support of our operating activities, our limited operating history and our reliance upon funding
commitments with two significant shareholders. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent
upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and
positive cash flow is dependent upon:
|
|
our ability to find suitable real estate projects; and |
|
|
|
our ability to generate sufficient revenues from those projects. |
We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues or other funds
in the future to cover these operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient revenues will cause
us to go out of business.
WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING IN THE FUTURE BUT CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL BE AVAILABLE
TO US.
In order to expand our business, we will continue to need additional capital. To date, we have
been successful in obtaining capital, but we cannot guarantee that additional capital will be
available at all or under sufficient terms and conditions for us to utilize it. Because we have
an ongoing need for capital, we may experience a lack of liquidity in our future operations. We
will need additional financing of some type, which we do not now possess, to fully develop our
business plan. We expect to rely principally upon our ability to raise additional financing, the
success of which cannot be guaranteed. To the extent that we experience a substantial lack of
liquidity, our development in accordance with our business plan may be delayed or indefinitely
postponed, which would have a materially adverse impact on our operations and the investors
investment.
AS A COMPANY WITH LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY, WE ARE INHERENTLY A RISKY INVESTMENT. OUR
OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO OUR ABILITY TO FINANCE REAL ESTATE PROJECTS.
Because we are a company with a limited history, our operations, which consist of real estate
projects, are subject to numerous risks. Our operations will depend, among other things, upon
our ability to finance real estate projects and for those projects to be sold. Further, there is
the possibility that our proposed operations will not generate income sufficient to meet
operating expenses or will generate income and capital appreciation, if any, at rates lower than
those anticipated or necessary to sustain the
investment. The value of our assets may become impaired by a variety of factors, which would
make it unlikely, if not impossible to profit from the sale of our real estate. We have already
experienced impairments to our assets and may do so in the future. Our operations may be
affected by many factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of these problems, or a
combination thereof, could have a materially adverse effect on our viability as an entity.
17
WE HAVE A HEAVY RELIANCE ON OUR CURRENT FUNDING COMMITMENTS WITH TWO SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS.
We are currently dependent upon our relationships with GDBA and BOCO. We currently have
$8,046,066 in outstanding notes with GDBA and $14,231,900 in outstanding notes with BOCO. We
would be unable to fund any projects in the foreseeable future, if we lose our current funding
commitment from these shareholders.
OUR INDEBTEDNESS UNDER OUR VARIOUS CREDIT FACILITIES ARE SUBSTANTIAL AND COULD LIMIT OUR ABILITY
TO GROW OUR BUSINESS.
As of March 31, 2010, we had total indebtedness under our various credit facilities of
approximately $28,900,000. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you. We have
balances under our credit facility that will mature during the next year. There is no assurance
that these notes will be renewed or extended or that the terms will be acceptable to management.
For example, it could:
|
|
increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
|
|
|
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations
to payments on our indebtedness if we do not maintain specified financial
ratios, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow for other purposes;
or |
|
|
|
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business
and the industry in which we operate, thereby placing us at a competitive
disadvantage compare to our competitors that may have less indebtedness. |
As of March 31, 2010, we had no availability for additional borrowing under our various credit
facilities. If we increase our indebtedness by borrowing under our various credit facilities or
incur other new indebtedness, the risks described above would increase.
There is no assurance that these notes will be renewed or extended or that the terms will be
acceptable to management.
MOST OF OUR INDEBTEDNESS IS SCHEDULED TO MATURE DURING OUR CURRENT FISCAL YEAR. WE CANNOT
GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO RENEW, EXTEND, REFINANCE OR PAY OFF THIS INDEBTEDNESS WHEN IT
BECOMES DUE. AS A RESULT, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE AS A BUSINESS.
As of March 31, 2010, we had total indebtedness under our various credit facilities of
approximately $28,900,000. Most of the balances under our various agreements will mature during
the next year. A total of $8,811,275 in debt must be renewed, extended, refinanced, or paid
off, prior to December 31, 2010. There is no assurance that any of this indebtedness will be
renewed, extended, refinanced, or paid off. If we cannot successfully renew, extend, refinance,
or pay off our indebtedness when it matures, we may not be able to continue to operate as a
business.
OUR VARIOUS CREDIT FACILITIES HAVE RESTRICTIVE TERMS AND OUR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THESE
TERMS COULD PUT US IN DEFAULT, WHICH WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS.
Our various credit facilities contain a number of significant covenants. These covenants limit
our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things:
|
|
incur additional indebtedness; |
|
|
|
make capital expenditures and other investments above a certain level; |
|
|
|
merge, consolidate or dispose of our assets or the capital stock or assets of any subsidiary; |
|
|
|
pay dividends, make distributions or redeem capital stock in certain circumstances; |
|
|
|
enter into transactions with our affiliates; |
|
|
|
grant liens on our assets or the assets of our subsidiaries; and |
|
|
|
make or repay intercompany loans. |
18
Our various credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to
meet these financial ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond our control, and we may
not meet those ratios. A breach of any of these restrictive covenants or our inability to comply
with the required financial ratios would result in a default under our various credit facilities
or require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on
our indebtedness. If the creditors accelerate amounts owing under our various credit facilities
because of a default and we are unable to pay such amounts, the creditors have the right to
foreclose on our assets.
WE PAY INTEREST ON A MAJORITY OF OUR CREDIT FACILITIES AT VARIABLE RATES, RATHER THAN FIXED
RATES, WHICH COULD AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY.
All of our credit facilities provide for the payment of interest at variable rates. None of our
credit facilities provide for the payment of interest at fixed rates. We can potentially realize
profitability to the extent that we can borrow at a lower rate of interest and charge a higher
rate of interest in our operations. Because our credit facilities are at variable rates, our
profit margins could be depressed or even eliminated by rising interest rates on funds we must
borrow. Rising interest rates could have a materially adverse affect on our operations.
WE DO NOT HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF BEING ABLE TO SELL PROPERTIES AT A PROFIT
We have only been in business since 2003. We do not have a significant track record and may be
unable to sell properties in our inventory. We have already experienced impairments to our
assets of approximately $13 million as of March 31, 2010. We may incur additional impairments in
the future. We may be forced to sell properties at a loss. Furthermore, in order to sell
properties for a profit, we may be forced to hold properties for longer periods that we plan,
which may require the need for additional financing sources. Any of these conditions would
likely result in reduced operating profits and could likely strain current funding agreements.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH.
We hope to experience rapid growth which, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our
managerial, operational, and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and
manage growth, we must continue to implement and improve our financial strength and our
operational systems, and expand. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively
manage the expansion of our operations, or that our systems, procedures or controls will be
adequate to support our expanded operations or that we will be able to obtain facilities to
support our growth. Our inability to effectively manage our future growth would have a material
adverse effect on us.
THE MANNER IN WHICH WE FINANCE OUR PROJECTS CREATES THE POSSIBILITY OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
We fund our projects with construction financing obtained through the efforts of our management
and our shareholders, GDBA and BOCO. This arrangement could create a conflict of interest with
respect to such financings. However, there may be an inherent conflict of interest in the
arrangement until such time as we might seek such financings on a competitive basis.
WE HAVE A LACK OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS.
We do not have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors and we cannot
guarantee that our board of directors will have a majority of independent directors in the
future. In the absence of a majority of independent directors, our executive officers, which are
also principal stockholders and directors, could establish policies and enter into transactions
without independent review and approval thereof. This could present the potential for a conflict
of interest between our stockholders and the controlling officers, or directors.
INTENSE COMPETITION IN OUR MARKET COULD PREVENT US FROM DEVELOPING REVENUE AND PREVENT US FROM
ACHIEVING ANNUAL PROFITABILITY.
We provide a defined service to finance real estate projects. The barriers to entry are not
significant. Our service could be rendered noncompetitive or obsolete. Competition from larger
and more established companies is a significant threat and expected to increase. Most of the
companies with which we compete and expect to compete have far greater capital resources, and
many of them have substantially greater experience in real estate development. Our ability to
compete effectively may be adversely affected by the ability of these competitors to devote
greater resources than we can.
19
THERE ARE POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a
variety of factors, most of which are
outside of our control, including: the demand for our products or services; seasonal trends in
financing; the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the
development of our properties; price competition or pricing changes in the industry; technical
or regulatory difficulties; general economic conditions; and economic conditions specific to our
industry. Our quarterly results may also be significantly impacted by the accounting treatment
of acquisitions, financing transactions or other matters. Particularly at our early stage of
development, such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the results for any
quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results
will fall below our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.
OUR SUCCESS WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON OUR OPERATING PARTNERS EFFORTS.
Our success will be dependent, to a large extent, upon the efforts of our operating partners in
our various projects. To the extent that these partners, individually or collectively, fail to
develop projects in a timely or cost-effective manner, our profit margins could be depressed or
even eliminated. If we cannot or do not select appropriate partners for our projects, our
profitability and viability will suffer. The absence of one or more partners who develop
projects in a timely or cost-effective manner could have a material, adverse impact on our
operations.
OUR SUCCESS WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON OUR MANAGEMENTS EFFORTS.
Our success will be dependent upon the decision making of our directors and executive officers.
These individuals intend to commit as much time as necessary to our business, but this
commitment is no assurance of success. The loss of any or all of these individuals, particularly
James W. Creamer, III, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Ms. Joni Troska, our
Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, could have a material, adverse impact on our operations.
We have no written employment agreements with any officers and directors, including Mr. Creamer
or Ms. Troska. We have not obtained key man life insurance on the lives of any of these
individuals.
THERE IS A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.
Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in our
management affairs. Our articles of incorporation provides, however, that our officers and
directors shall have no liability to our stockholders for losses sustained or liabilities
incurred which arise from any transaction in their respective managerial capacities unless they
violated their duty of loyalty, did engage in intentional misconduct or gross negligence. Our
articles and bylaws also provide for the indemnification by us of the officers and directors
against any losses or liabilities they may incur as a result of the manner in which they operate
our business or conduct the internal affairs.
OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE, AND YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL YOUR SHARES AT OR ABOVE THE
PUBLIC SALE PRICE.
There has been, and continues to be, a limited public market for our common stock. Our common
stock trades on the NASD Bulletin Board under the trading symbol CPTA.OB. However, an active
trading market for our shares have not, and may never develop or be sustained. If you purchase
shares of common stock, you may not be able to resell those shares at or above the initial price
you paid. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to
numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the following:
|
|
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; |
|
|
|
change in financial estimates by securities analysts or our failure to perform in line with such estimates; |
|
|
|
changes in market valuations of other real estate oriented companies, particularly those that market
services such as ours; |
|
|
|
announcements by us or our competitors of significant innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships,
joint ventures or capital commitments; |
|
|
|
introduction of technologies or product enhancements that reduce the need for our services; |
|
|
|
the loss of one or more key customers; and |
|
|
|
departures of key personnel. |
Further, we cannot assure that an investor will be able to liquidate his investment without
considerable delay, if at all. The factors which we have discussed in this document may have a
significant impact on the market price of our common stock. It is also possible that the
relatively low price of our common stock may keep many brokerage firms from engaging in
transactions in our common stock.
As restrictions on the resale of our common stock end, the market price of our stock could drop
significantly if the holders of restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as
intending to sell them.
20
BUYING A LOW-PRICED PENNY STOCK SUCH AS OURS IS RISKY AND SPECULATIVE.
Our shares are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules
of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales
practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other
than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of
$5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding
$200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse, or in transactions not recommended by a
broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a
suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchasers written agreement prior
to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny
stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer
quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons,
and deliver certain disclosures required by the SEC. Consequently, the penny stock rules may
affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also
affect your ability to sell any of our shares you may own in the public markets.
WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK.
We have not paid any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and it is unlikely that we
will pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Earnings, if any,
that we may realize will be retained in the business for further development and expansion.
