PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

As used herein, "Comstock", "CHCI", "the Company," "we," "us," "our," and similar terms are referring to Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

Overview

Comstock is a leading developer and manager of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. As a vertically integrated and multi-faceted asset management and real estate services company, we have designed, developed, constructed, acquired, and managed thousands of residential units and millions of square feet of commercial and mixed-use properties in since 1985. We provide a broad range of asset management and real estate services to our customers and partners, composed primarily of private and institutional owners, investors in commercial, residential, and mixed-use real estate, and various governmental bodies seeking to leverage the potential of public-private partnerships.

Our mission is to deliver extraordinary experiences in places people live, work, and play. We strive to deliver best-in-class services and products in the real estate industry through exemplary conduct, superb systems, and an ongoing commitment to excellence that is guided by our vast expertise in all the areas in which we operate.

CES Divestiture

On June 16, 2021, we made the strategic decision to pursue the sale of the operations of Comstock Environmental Services, LLC ("CES"), a subsidiary of Comstock, based on the continued growth and future prospects of the asset management business. Accordingly, we have reflected CES as a discontinued operation in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. We have also designated CES assets and liabilities as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures relate to our continuing operations. For additional information, see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

On March 31, 2022, we completed the sale of CES to August Mack Environmental, Inc. ("August Mack") for approximately $1.4 million of total consideration, composed of $1.0 million in cash and $0.4 million held in escrow that is subject to net working capital and other adjustments, as set forth in the executed Asset Purchase Agreement with August Mack.

Our Services

We have broad real estate development and management capabilities that enable us to generate fees for services provided in connection with the real estate assets we manage. Our experienced team provides a full range of services related to acquisition, development, and operations of real estate assets.

Our revenue includes fees generated from asset management services that we provide to our managed portfolio of real estate assets, including development and construction management services, leasing and property management services, and debt/equity financing origination. We also generate revenue from providing fee-based real estate services, such as capital markets, brokerage and title insurance, to properties in our managed portfolio.

In addition, we invest capital both on our own account and on behalf of clients and institutional investors seeking above average risk-adjusted returns. These strategic real estate investments tend to focus on office, retail, residential and mixed-use properties in which we generally retain an economic interest while also providing property management and other real estate services. Each unique investment opportunity comes with its own set of planned objectives and timelines, however market conditions pending, our general expectation is that most of these types of projects last between four and seven years.

The services we provide pursuant to the asset management agreements covering our managed portfolio vary by property and client, and include property management, development and construction management, leasing management, acquisition and disposition management, origination and negotiation of debt and equity facilities, risk management, and various other property-specific services. Substantially all the properties included in our managed portfolio are covered by long-term, full-service asset management agreements encompassing all aspects of design, development, construction, and operations management relating to the subject properties. Our long-term asset management contracts generally include material early termination payments to us in the event the contract is prematurely terminated by the asset owner. A limited number of properties in our managed portfolio are covered by service-specific asset management contracts that focus our services on defined critical elements of operations, such as marketing, leasing, and construction management, where the property owner continues to manage other operating functions. Our

2

Table of Contents

limited-service asset management agreements generally are anticipated to be short term in nature and do not include material early termination penalties.

Anchoring our asset management services platform is a long-term full service asset management agreement with an affiliated company owned by Comstock’s Chief Executive Officer, Christopher Clemente (the “2019 AMA”). The 2019 AMA encompasses the majority of the properties we currently manage, including two of the largest transit-oriented, mixed-use developments in the Washington, D.C. area: Reston Station and Loudoun Station, which along with other development properties under the 2019 AMA constitute our “Anchor Portfolio” (see below for details). The 2019 AMA for our Anchor Portfolio is a long-term agreement with an original term of ten years that provides for significant financial payments to Comstock in the case of early termination by the asset owner. For further information, see Note 14 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Managed Portfolio

Our managed portfolio comprised 34 operating assets, including 14 commercial assets totaling approximately 2.2 million square feet, 6 multifamily assets totaling 1,636 units, and 14 commercial garages with over 11,000 parking spaces. Additionally, we have 18 development pipeline assets consisting of approximately 2.0 million square feet of additional planned commercial development, approximately 1,900 multifamily units and 2 hotel assets that will include approximately 460 keys. Further details on the various assets we manage are as follows:

Anchor Portfolio

Reston Station

Reston Station is among the largest mixed-use, transit-oriented developments in the greater Washington D.C. metropolitan market. Located at the terminus of Phase I of Metro’s Silver Line, the Reston Station neighborhood spans the Dulles Toll Road. Covering a total of approximately 60 acres, assets included in Comstock’s managed portfolio cover approximately 37 of the 60-acre neighborhood and will, upon full build-out, include approximately five million square feet of mixed-used development. We are providing a wide variety of its real estate and asset management services to the project pursuant to the 2019 AMA, including development and construction management services, leasing management services, property management services, capital markets services. The Reston Station neighborhood is being developed in four districts as follows:

•Metro Plaza District

The Metro Plaza District is structured to accommodate up to 1.4 million square feet of mixed-use development spread across five buildings, highlighted by the following properties for which construction has been completed:

◦1900 Reston Metro Plaza - 80,000 square foot Trophy-Class office tower; a significant portion of which has been leased to Google and other corporate users,

◦1906 Reston Metro Plaza - 210,000 square foot Trophy-Class office building; 100% leased

◦BLVD | Reston - 450,000 square foot residential tower that includes 448 rental apartments; 93% leased

A fourth building, 1902 Reston Metro Plaza, is a 250,000 square foot Trophy-Class office building that is 100% leased, had the base building delivered in 2021, and is expected to have the interior fit-out completed by late 2022. All buildings on the Metro Plaza have ground floor retail and are leased to high-quality tenants, including Starbucks, CVS and others. Entitlements allow for the construction of a fifth tower, a residential or hotel building of up to approximately 120,000 square feet, above a portion of the retail space on the Metro Plaza.

The Reston Station Metro Plaza includes one of the largest underground commuter parking garages and bus transit facilities in the region. The 1.7 million square foot subterranean garage and transit facility is the subject of a public-private partnership between affiliates of the Company and Fairfax County, Virginia. The Reston Station transit facility provides Metro commuters with an indoor bus transit depot designed to accommodate upwards of 110 buses per hour, 2,300 commuter parking spaces operated by Fairfax County and additional approximately 1,500 spaces for retail, office and commuter uses operated by a Comstock subsidiary, a Tesla Super Charging Station and numerous other electric vehicle charging stations, numerous bicycle parking and storage facilities, substantial storm water management vaults, and state-of-the-art water treatment systems.

•Reston Row District

The Reston Row District has entitlements in place that allow for approximately 1.4 million square feet of mixed-use development, including Class-A office, multifamily units, retail and hotel uses. The Reston Row District is situated on

approximately 11 acres adjacent to Reston Station’s Metro Plaza District and the Reston Station Transit Facility. Marriott International has entered into a franchise agreement with one of the Comstock-managed entities covered under the 2019 AMA concerning the development and operation of a JW Marriott Hotel and residential tower that is planned to be developed in the first of two phases of the Reston Row District, including approximately 243 hotel rooms, 95 JW Marriott-branded condominium residences, and retail, entertainment, conference and meeting spaces.

•Commerce District

The Commerce District has entitlements in place that allow for approximately 1.4 million square feet of mixed-use development, in addition to four existing Class-A office buildings that include a total of approximately 590,000 square feet. The Commerce District property is situated on approximately 16 acres located adjacent to the south entrance to the Wiehle Reston-East Metro Station and lies directly across the Dulles Toll Road from the Metro Plaza District of Reston Station and the Reston Station Transit Facility. We are currently leasing and managing the four existing office buildings and one existing retail building while also finalizing plans for the new buildings that will include up to 1.4 million square feet of office, retail, hotel and residential uses.

•West District

The West District at Reston Station consists of approximately 3 acres of land located adjacent to the Reston Row District that is owned by our affiliates and approximately 13 surrounding acres of land owned by others. Our portion of the West District was previously developed by an affiliate with a 90,000 square foot office building and was entitled for development of an additional residential building of up to approximately 260,000 square feet. An adjoining parcel in the West District is owned by an entity not affiliated with Comstock and has been developed with an existing 421-unit residential apartment building. Two additional existing office buildings owned by entities not affiliated with Comstock and a medical facility owned and operated by Kaiser Permanente are also included in the West District.

Loudoun Station

Loudoun Station, located at the terminus of Phase II of Metro’s Silver Line, is Loudoun County’s first Metro connected development. It represents the beginning of Loudoun County’s transformation into a transit-connected community, with direct Metro connectivity to Dulles International Airport, Reston, Tysons Corner, and downtown Washington, D.C. Currently, Loudoun Station has approximately 1,500,000 square feet of mixed-use development completed, including 675 residential units, approximately 50,000 square feet of Class-A office space, approximately 150,000 thousand square feet of retail spaces including an 11-screen AMC Cinema, and a 1,500-space Metro commuter parking garage. The Metro Garage is the focus of a public-private partnership between a Comstock affiliate and Loudoun County, Virginia and is managed by a Comstock subsidiary. Phase II of Metro’s Silver Line is under construction and expected to commence passenger service in mid-2022. We are providing a variety of real estate and asset management services related to the existing buildings and the future development pursuant to the 2019 AMA, including development and construction management services, leasing management services, property management services, and capital markets services.

Herndon Station

Herndon Station will include up to approximately 340,000 square feet of residential, retail and entertainment spaces, including a performing arts center, and an approximately 700 space commercial parking garage in the historic downtown portion of the Town of Herndon in western Fairfax County, Virginia. The project is the focus of a public-private partnership between a Comstock affiliate and the Town of Herndon and will include improvements to existing connections to the adjacent WO&D trail, a popular pedestrian and bicycle route. We are providing a variety of asset management and development services related to the Herndon Station development pursuant to the 2019 AMA.

Other Portfolio Assets

International Gateway

Since 2018, pursuant to an asset management agreement with an unaffiliated property owner, we have provided asset management, property management, leasing management, and consulting services for a privately owned portfolio of two mixed-use retail/office buildings in Tysons Corner, Virginia, known as International Gateway.

Investors X

On April 30, 2019, we entered into a Master Transfer agreement with CP Real Estate Services, LC (“CPRES”), formerly Comstock Development Services, LC, an entity wholly owned by the Company’s CEO, Christopher Clemente, which entitled the Company to priority distribution of residual cash flow from its Class B membership interest in Comstock Investors X, L.C.

Table of Contents

("Investors X"), an unconsolidated Variable Interest Entity that owns the Company's residual homebuilding operations. As of December 31, 2021, the residual cash flow primarily relates to anticipated returns of cash backing outstanding letters of credit and cash collateral posted for land development work performed by subsidiaries owned by Investors X. The cash will be released as bond release work associated with these projects is completed. In addition, a subsidiary of Investors X is undergoing a rezoning from commercial to residential and we will be entitled to 50% of the profit from the anticipated residential lot sales after rezoning and land development work is completed.

The Hartford Building

In December 2019, we entered into a joint venture with Comstock Partners, LC (“Partners”), an entity that is controlled by our CEO, and wholly-owned by Mr. Clemente and certain family members, to acquire a Class-A office building immediately adjacent to Clarendon Station on Metro’s Orange Line in Arlington County, Virginia’s premier transit-oriented office market, the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor. Built in 2003, the 211,000 square foot mixed-use Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) GOLD building is approximately 76% leased to multiple high-quality tenants. In February 2020, we arranged for DivcoWest, an unaffiliated entity, to purchase a majority ownership stake in the Hartford Building and secured a $87 million loan facility from MetLife. As part of the transaction, we entered into asset management and property management agreements to manage the property.

BLVD Forty Four

In October 2021, we entered into a joint venture with Partners to acquire BLVD Forty Four, a 15-story, luxury high-rise apartment building located one block from the Rockville Metro Station and in the heart of the I-270 Technology and Life Science Corridor in Montgomery County, Maryland. Built in 2015, the 263-unit mixed use property includes approximately 16,000 square feet of retail and a commercial parking garage. In connection with the transaction, we received an acquisition fee and will also receive investment related income and incentive fees in connection with our equity interest in the asset. We also provide asset, residential, retail and parking property management services for the property in exchange for market rate fees.

BLVD Ansel

In March 2022, we entered into a joint venture with Partners to acquire BLVD Ansel, a 250-unit, 18-story, luxury high-rise apartment building located at 33 Monroe Street in Rockville, MD. BLVD Ansel is the sister building of Comstock’s acquired BLVD Forty-Four. BLVD Ansel features over 20,000 square feet of retail space, 611 parking spaces, and expansive amenities, including a spacious lobby with concierge service, penthouse clubroom, fitness center and yoga studio, and multiple private workspaces designed to meet the needs of remote-working residents. In connection with the transaction, we received an acquisition fee and will also receive investment related income and incentive fees in connection with our equity interest in the asset. We also provide residential, retail and parking property management services for the property in exchange for market rate fees.

Our Business Strategy

In early 2018, we transitioned our business strategy from being focused on the development and sale of residential homes to our current fee-based services model that concentrates on asset management of commercial and mixed-use real estate, primarily in the greater Washington, D.C. region. This shift took us from an approach that, among other things, was capital-intensive and required us to maintain a significant on-balance sheet land inventory to one that is asset-light with a much lower risk profile.

Comstock has been active in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and other key U.S. markets since 1985, having developed, acquired, and managed large-scale portfolios of real estate assets, including thousands of rental apartments, millions of square feet of mixed-use properties (office buildings, hotels, commercial garages, transit-oriented developments), millions of square feet of regional shopping malls, and numerous public-private partnership developments that include large-scale public infrastructure improvements. We believe that our management team’s extensive experience in managing such a diverse and large-scale portfolio of developments and stabilized assets provides the knowledge base necessary to distinguish our business focus and strategy, which is primarily focused on:

•Properties that generate stable, recurring cash flows

Our asset management agreements provide a highly visible and reliable source of revenue and position us to enhance bottom line results as our Anchor Portfolio and other assets under management expand. Our Anchor Portfolio provides a stable, cost-plus fee structure foundation pursuant to the 2019 AMA. This approach enables us to generate consistent, positive earnings through the development and management of, and the provision of additional services related to, our

5

---

Table of Contents

Anchor Portfolio. It also provides the opportunity to increase our earnings through the expansion of our managed portfolio of properties pursuant to acquisitions of additional stabilized assets with institutional partners.

•Mixed-use and transit-oriented assets in high-growth areas

We are a developer, operator, and asset manager of high quality, mixed-use and transit-oriented development properties with a focus on select transitioning “sub-urban” markets in the greater Washington D.C. metropolitan area. These sub-markets, which include the Dulles Corridor and the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor in Northern Virginia, are experiencing increased short-term demand resulting from a flight to quality and perceived safety prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These areas also feature strong long-term trends such as economic growth and attractive demographic attributes, as well as superior transportation infrastructure that caters to the preferences of multifamily, office and retail tenants.

Current trends indicate that commercial tenants are likely to continue seeking to locate (or relocate) offices to urban, mixed-use developments in sub-markets such as our key markets. These sub-markets have also demonstrated demand trends that we believe will continue to result in commercial tenants’ willingness to pay higher rents for commercial space as compared to locations that do not offer the benefits and amenities available in mixed-use and transit-oriented developments, while also attracting residential tenants willing to pay premium rents for high quality rental apartments in amenity-rich areas that, among other benefits, provides direct or easily walkable access to Metro and other transit services. A significant portion of our portfolio of managed assets are located in such areas, adjacent to Metro stations with multiple housing choices, popular restaurants, entertainment venues, and other amenities prioritized by today’s corporate tenants and their employees.

We seek out opportunities that we believe can provide appropriate risk-adjusted returns and are suitable for co-investment, potentially with institutional real estate investors that seek investment opportunities but may lack the local expertise or operational infrastructure necessary to identify, acquire, and manage such assets. Our acquisition strategy is aligned with that of institutional real estate investors and is currently focused on value-add, core, and core-plus opportunities as well as other opportunistic asset acquisitions.

•Capitalizing on significant growth trends that drive market demand in Northern Virginia

Significant growth trends in demand for cybersecurity and other technology services in the government sector, as well as in the private sector, have generated substantial growth and attracted large technology companies, such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon to the Dulles Corridor and the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor in Northern Virginia. In 2018, Northern Virginia was selected by Amazon as the location for its highly publicized “HQ2” second headquarters. Amazon’s HQ2 has recently begun operations and is reportedly expected to create 25,000 or more new jobs over the next several years as its 5 million square foot complex develops in Arlington County at the eastern end of the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor. Meanwhile, Amazon Web Services has focused its expansion in the Dulles Corridor to the west, where it has been increasing its office and data center presence in recent years. We believe Amazon’s presence in these corridors, along with the continued growth and investment by other large technology companies, will continue to benefit Northern Virginia’s employment market, which has experienced market leading job growth in the Washington, D.C. region.

Further, Northern Virginia’s significant data infrastructure, capable of serving the growing needs of the federal government and its defense and information contractors, has spurred the expansion and/or relocation of several federal government agencies, including the FBI, CIA, NSA, and the Customs and Border Patrol agency, to the Dulles Corridor. Because of its significant information infrastructure, the Dulles Corridor has become known as the “Internet Capital of the World”. With its vast network of high-capacity data centers, primarily located in the western portion of the Dulles Corridor, Loudoun County reportedly hosts upwards of 70% of the world’s internet traffic. As a result, Loudoun County continues to experience tremendous growth in data center development and employment and has become the global leader in absorption of data center capacity, accounting for more than 40% of national data center space absorption in recent years.

We have been focused on these developing trends for more than two decades, and through the 2019 AMA, we control the development and asset management of a significant portfolio of high-profile assets at the forefront of the urban transformation taking place in the Dulles Corridor. With a stabilized portfolio and development pipeline that include millions of square feet of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties located at key Metro stations in the Dulles Corridor, we are well-positioned to capitalize on trends that are shaping the future of mixed-use real estate in the Washington, D.C. area, providing opportunities for significant growth and attractive returns.

•Leveraging our development capabilities to secure public-private partnership development opportunities

Our affiliates have been selected by multiple local governments (including Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and the Town of Herndon, Virginia) to develop and manage large-scale mixed-use developments that include transit facilities and other public infrastructure elements through public-private partnerships at a time when local jurisdictions are focused on public-private partnerships as a means of leveraging private sector capabilities to meet public infrastructure development needs. In addition, recent changes to the Comprehensive Land Use Plans of Fairfax County and Loudoun County encourage high-density and mixed-use development proximate to the new Silver Line Metro Stations in the Dulles Corridor, resulting in compelling growth opportunities adjacent to the terminus station of Phase I of the Silver Line that opened in 2014 and the terminus station of Phase II of the Silver Line that is scheduled to open in mid-2022.

•Constructing and stabilizing our significant development pipeline

We expect to generate additional fees from our significant pipeline of development opportunities. At full build out, our Anchor Portfolio will be approximately 7.4 million square feet and include approximately 18 total commercial assets comprised of approximately 3.8 million square feet, 12 total residential assets comprised of approximately 3,000 units spanning 3.2 million total square feet, 15 total commercial garages comprised of approximately 17,000 parking spaces, and 2 hotels comprised of approximately 460 hotel rooms and 400,000 square feet.

•Actively growing our supplemental asset management services

We provide a variety of fee-based real estate services, such as capital markets, brokerage and title insurance. Providing these supplemental services serves as a catalyst for additional strategic institutional real estate acquisition joint venture opportunities.

Our Values – Environment, Social and Governance (ESG)

We are committed to pursuing environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and robust governance practices across all our operations. We recognize that development of real estate can have significant impact, positive or negative, for the surrounding community, the region, and the environment that we all share. We believe that companies developing real estate have a responsibility to maximize the positive impacts while taking steps to minimize negative impacts. Supporting and fostering these initiatives is instrumental in making our communities better places to live, work, and play while simultaneously bolstering asset value, reducing risk, and positively impacting all stakeholders.

Environmental

We believe that environmentally sound business practices are critical to the long-term success of our business and the communities in which we operate. Our managed portfolio already includes multiple assets that are Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) and Energy Star certified, and multiple initiatives are underway to obtain additional certifications in the near future. We plan to expand our capabilities around monitoring energy and utility consumption at all our properties, allowing us to better identify opportunities to maximize efficiency and sustainability through operational and capital improvements. Furthermore, we intend to engage our supply chain to incorporate sustainable designs, materials, and systems into all ongoing or future developments.

Our transit-oriented developments promote the use of mass transit, ride sharing, and alternate modes of transportation. We continue to expand the availability of electronic vehicle charging stations and bike racks at our properties in hopes of encouraging the reduction of congestion, emissions, and our overall carbon footprint. In recognition of the positive impacts resulting from Comstock’s Reston Station design, the development was awarded the designation of Best Workplaces for Commuters in 2020 and 2021 by the Best Workplaces for Commuters Organization created by the National Center for Transit Research at the Center for Urban Transportation Research.

Social (Human Capital)

Our core mission is to deliver extraordinary experiences in places people live, work, and play. We recognize the vital importance of community engagement in achieving this goal, which is why it has always been at the forefront of our overall business strategy. We host a variety of community events in the public spaces we develop, aimed at creating rich and meaningful experiences. We support local organizations in the communities where we do business through charitable events, philanthropic partnerships, and other events that help contribute to the health and vibrancy of the community.

We employ a diverse, multi-generational staff that consisted of 152 full-time and 9 part-time employees as of December 31, 2021. We promote collaboration, support, and innovation, providing all our employees the opportunity to achieve their professional and wellness goals. We continuously strive to diversify our workforce, provide equal access to opportunities to our people, and promote a working environment based on mutual trust, confidence, and respect. Our employees have access to a comprehensive suite of benefits, including, but not limited to: medical, dental, vision, and life insurance options; flexible and health savings accounts; 401k plan matching; and professional development reimbursement. We offer numerous wellness initiatives and training opportunities, including a diversity training and a broad suite of e-learning courses.

In 2021, we have continued to implement certain protocols and procedures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure the safety, health and comfort of employees and remain in compliance with all federal and local ordinances and guidelines.

Governance

Our employees, managers and officers conduct our business under the direction of our CEO and the oversight of our Board of Directors (the “Board”) to enhance our long-term value for our stockholders. The core responsibility of our Board is to exercise its fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders. In exercising this obligation, our Board and its individual committees perform several specific functions, including risk assessment, review and oversight. While management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risk, our Board retains oversight of risk management for our company, assisting management by providing guidance on strategic risks, financial risks, and operational risks.

We have established corporate governance guidelines and policies that promote Company values, including a code of conduct as well as a code of ethics. Our information security team deploys an array of cybersecurity capabilities to protect our various business systems and data. We continually invest in protecting against, monitoring, and mitigating risks across the enterprise. We had no material publicly reportable information security incidents in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Competition

The real estate asset management and services industry is highly competitive. We compete with other businesses in the asset management and real estate-related services businesses on the basis of price, location, experience, service and reputation. Many of these competitors are larger than us, operate on a national or global scale, and have access to greater technical, marketing and financial resources. These competitors may benefit from lower costs of capital, greater business scale, enhanced operating efficiencies, and greater immunity to localized market downturns due to their broad geographic presence. We also face numerous competitors on a local and regional basis. Certain competitors may also possess greater access to capital, higher risk tolerance, lower return thresholds, or less regulatory restrictions, all which could allow them to consider a broader range of investments and to bid more aggressively for investment opportunities than we are able to. Our long-term growth will depend upon our ability to attract and maintain the appropriate personnel, professionally manage the assets subject to the 2019 AMA and other management agreements, and successfully expand our services to new and existing clients in a cost-efficient manner.

Technology and Intellectual Property

We utilize our technology infrastructure to facilitate the management of our client’s assets and the marketing of our services. We use media and internet-based marketing platforms primarily in lieu of print advertisements. We believe that the residential renting population will continue to increase its reliance on information available on the internet to help guide its rental decision. Accordingly, through our marketing efforts, we will continue to seek to leverage this trend to lower per lease marketing costs while maximizing potential lease transactions.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Christopher Clemente, has licensed his ownership interest in the “Comstock” brand and trademark to us in perpetuity. We have registered our trademarks and routinely take steps, and occasionally take legal action, to protect against brand infringement from third parties. Mr. Clemente has retained the right to continue to use the “Comstock” brand and trademark including for real estate development projects in our current or future markets that are unrelated to the Company but, currently, substantially all of Mr. Clemente’s real estate development business is conducted with Comstock, pursuant to the 2019 AMA.

Governmental Regulation and Environmental Matters

We are subject to various local, state and federal statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning finance, banking, investments, zoning, building design, construction, density requirements and similar matters. We may also be subject to periodic

delays or may be precluded entirely from developing in certain communities due to building moratoriums or “slow-growth” or “no-growth” initiatives that could be implemented in the future in the states where we operate. Local and state governments also have broad discretion regarding the imposition of development fees for projects in their jurisdiction.

We are also subject to a variety of local, state and federal statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning protection of the environment. Some of the laws to which we and our properties are subject to may impose requirements concerning development in waters of the United States, including wetlands, the closure of water supply wells, management of asbestos-containing materials, exposure to radon and similar issues. The particular environmental laws that apply to any given real estate asset vary based on several factors, including the environmental conditions related to a particular property and the present and former uses of the property.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Through September 30, 2020, we had been leasing 16,447 square feet of office space located at 1886 Metro Center Drive, Reston, Virginia for our corporate headquarters from an affiliate partially owned by our Chief Executive Officer. On October 31, 2020, our then-current lease expired following a one-month extension of the lease term. On November 1, 2020, we executed a new lease to relocate our corporate headquarters to new office space located at 1900 Reston Metro Plaza, Reston, Virginia for a ten-year term from an affiliate partially owned by our Chief Executive Officer. The amount of leased space is currently 21,852 square feet. We believe our properties are adequately maintained and suitable for our needs and their intended use.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Currently, we are not subject to any material legal proceedings. From time to time, however, we are named as a defendant in legal actions arising from our normal business activities. Although we cannot accurately predict the amount of our liability, if any, that could arise with respect to legal actions pending against us, we do not expect that any such liability will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows. We believe that we have obtained adequate insurance coverage, rights to indemnification, or where appropriate, have established reserves in connection with these legal proceedings.

Overview

We are a leading developer and manager of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. As a vertically integrated and multi-faceted asset management and real estate services company, we have designed, developed, constructed, acquired, and managed thousands of residential units and millions of square feet of commercial and mixed-use properties in since 1985. We provide a broad range of asset management and real estate services to our customers and partners, composed primarily of private and institutional owners, investors in commercial, residential, and mixed-use real estate, and various governmental bodies seeking to leverage the potential of public-private partnerships.

We have broad real estate development and management capabilities that enable us to generate fees for services provided in connection with the real estate assets we manage. Our experienced team provides a full range of services related to acquisition, development, and operations of real estate assets. Our revenue includes fees generated from asset management and real estate services that we provide to properties in our managed portfolio. In addition, we invest capital both on our own account and on behalf of clients and institutional investors seeking above average risk-adjusted returns. These strategic real estate investments tend to focus on office, retail, residential and mixed-use properties in which we generally retain an economic interest while also providing property management and other real estate services.

The services we provide pursuant to the asset management agreements covering our managed portfolio vary by property and client. Substantially all the properties included in our managed portfolio are covered by long-term, full-service asset management agreements encompassing all aspects of design, development, construction, and operations management relating to the subject properties.

Anchoring our asset management services platform is a long-term full service asset management agreement with an affiliated company owned by the Comstock’s Chief Executive Officer, Christopher Clemente (the “2019 AMA”). The 2019 AMA encompasses the majority of the properties we currently manage, including two of the largest transit-oriented, mixed-use developments in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area: Reston Station and Loudoun Station, which along with other development properties under the 2019 AMA constitute our “Anchor Portfolio”.

As of December 31, 2021, our managed portfolio comprised 34 operating assets, including 14 commercial assets totaling approximately 2.2 million square feet, 6 multifamily assets totaling 1,636 units, and 14 commercial garages with over 11,000 parking spaces. Additionally, we have: (i) one commercial asset currently under-construction and scheduled for delivery in 2022 totaling approximately 250,000 square feet that is 100.0% pre-leased; and (ii) 18 development pipeline assets consisting of approximately 2.0 million square feet of additional planned commercial development, approximately 1,900 multifamily units and 2 hotel assets that will include 460 keys.

CES Divestiture

On June 16, 2021, we made the strategic decision to pursue the sale of the operations of Comstock Environmental Services, LLC ("CES"), a subsidiary of Comstock, based on the continued growth and future prospects of the asset management business. Accordingly, we have reflected CES as a discontinued operation in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented, and have also designated CES assets and liabilities as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures relate to our continuing operations. For additional information, see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

On March 31, 2022, we completed the sale of CES to August Mack Environmental, Inc. ("August Mack") for approximately $1.4 million of total consideration, composed of $1.0 million in cash and $0.4 million held in escrow that is subject to net working capital and other adjustments, as set forth in the executed Asset Purchase Agreement with August Mack.

COVID-19 Update

The COVID-19 pandemic has also caused significant volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets, which can negatively impact consumer confidence. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. economy. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic affects our financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. While we have not experienced a significant impact on our business resulting from COVID-19 to date, future developments may have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition. We continue to monitor the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the effects of recent notable variants of the virus. The health and safety of our employees, customers, and the communities in which we operate remains our top priority. Although the long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial real estate market in the greater Washington, D.C. area remains uncertain, we believe that our Anchor Portfolio is well positioned to withstand any future potential negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Outlook

Our management team is committed to executing on the Company's goal to provide exceptional experiences to those we do business with while maximizing shareholder value. We believe that we are properly staffed for current market conditions and the foreseeable future and that our Company has the ability to manage risk and pursue opportunities for additional growth as market conditions warrant. Our real estate development and management operations are primarily focused on the greater Washington, D.C. area, where we believe our 30-plus years of experience provides us the best opportunity to continue leveraging our significant experience acquiring, developing, and managing high quality real estate assets and capitalizing on positive growth trends.

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020

Revenue

The following table summarizes revenue by line of business (in thousands):

Table of Contents

			Year Ended December 31,
			2021												2020												Change
			Net Sales						%						Net Sales						%						$						%
Asset management			$	22,539					72.5		%				$	16,057					71.4		%				$	6,482					40.4		%
Property management			6,939						22.3		%				5,410						24.1		%				1,529						28.3		%
Parking			1,615						5.2		%				1,020						4.5		%				595						58.3		%
Total revenue			$	31,093					100.0		%				$	22,487					100.0		%				$	8,606					38.3		%

Revenue increased 38.3% in 2021. The $8.6 million comparative increase was primarily due to a $3.0 million increase in base asset management fees, driven partially by the $1.4 million impact of the PPP Loan we received in 2020 that reduced the prior year reimbursable cost base. In addition, in 2021 there was a $2.6 million increase in loan origination fees earned and a $1.4 million increase in revenue stemming from reimbursed payroll costs. The increases in property management and parking revenue stem from seven additional managed commercial and residential properties and parking facilities in 2021.

Operating costs and expenses

The following table summarizes operating costs and expenses (in thousands):

			Year Ended December 31,												Change
			2021						2020						$						%
Cost of revenue			$	24,649					$	18,445					$	6,204					33.6		%
Selling, general, and administrative			1,285						1,314						(29)						(2.2)		%
Depreciation and amortization			94						74						20						27.0		%
Total operating costs and expenses			$	26,028					$	19,833					$	6,195					31.2		%

Operating costs and expenses increased 31.2% in 2021. The $6.2 million comparative increase was primarily due a $3.9 million increase in payroll costs, driven partially by the $1.5 million impact of the PPP Loan received in 2020 that reduced the prior year balance. Also contributing to the increase was a $0.9 million increase in co-broker fees incurred in 2021 due to increased capital markets activity, as well as a $0.5 million increase in rent expense due to a rate increase at our corporate headquarters location.

Other income (expense)

The following table summarizes other income (expense) (in thousands):

			Year Ended December 31,												Change
			2021						2020						$						%
Interest expense			$	(235)					$	(344)					$	109					(31.7)		%
Gain (loss) on equity method investments			(14)						(160)						146						(91.3)		%
Other income			6						16						(10)						(62.5)		%
Total other income (expense)			$	(243)					$	(488)					$	245					(50.2)		%

Other income (expense) decreased 50.2% in 2021. The $0.2 million comparative decrease was primarily due to a $0.1 million decrease in interest expense as a result of replacing a higher interest rate loan with a lower interest credit facility, as well as $0.1 million net decrease in losses on equity method investments.

Income taxes

Benefit from income taxes was $11.2 million in 2021, compared to an immaterial expense in 2020. The significant benefit in 2021 was primarily due to the partial $11.3 million release of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the second quarter. This recognized tax benefit was derived from our ability to consistently deliver positive net income from continuing operations over the past 3 years and our expectation that current operations will continue to generate future taxable income.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

13

---

Table of Contents

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we prepare certain financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), specifically Adjusted EBITDA.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations, excluding the impact of interest expense (net of interest income), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and gain (loss) on equity method investments.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate financial performance, analyze the underlying trends in our business and establish operational goals and forecasts that are used when allocating resources. We expect to compute Adjusted EBITDA consistently using the same methods each period.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure because it permits investors to better understand changes over comparative periods by providing financial results that are unaffected by certain non-cash items that are not considered by management to be indicative of our operational performance.

While we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors when evaluating our business, it is not prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should be considered supplemental in nature. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute, for other financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measure as measured in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

									Year Ended December 31,
															2021						2020
Net income (loss) from continuing operations															$	16,039					$	2,141
Interest expense, net															235						344
Income taxes															(11,217)						25
Depreciation and amortization															94						74
Stock-based compensation															633						701
Gain (loss) on equity method investments															14						160
Adjusted EBITDA															$	5,798					$	3,445

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

None.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is defined as the current amount of readily available cash and the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet the current needs for cash. We assess our liquidity in terms of our cash and cash equivalents on hand and the ability to generate cash to fund our operating activities.

Our principal sources of liquidity as of December 31, 2021 were our cash and cash equivalents of $15.8 million and our $4.5 million of available borrowings on our Credit Facility.

Significant factors which could affect future liquidity include the adequacy of available lines of credit, cash flows generated from operating activities, working capital management and investments.

Our primary capital needs are for working capital obligations and other general corporate purposes, including investments and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of working capital are cash from operations and distributions from investments in real estate ventures. We have historically financed our operations with internally generated funds and borrowings from our credit facilities. For further information on our debt and credit facilities, see Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We believe we currently have adequate liquidity and availability of capital to fund our present operations and meet our commitments on our existing debt.

Share Repurchase Program

In November 2014, our board of directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 429,000 shares of our Class A common stock in one or more open market or privately negotiated transactions. We made no share repurchases under our share repurchase program in 2021 or 2020, and as of December 31, 2021 there are 404,000 shares of our Class A common stock that remain available for repurchase.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):

			Year Ended December 31,
			2021						2020
Continuing operations
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities			$	8,688					$	3,579
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities			1,276						1,703
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities			(227)						(282)
Total net increase (decrease) in cash - continuing operations			9,737						5,000
Discontinued operations, net			(946)						(1,479)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents			$	8,791					$	3,521

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $5.1 million in 2021, primarily driven by a $2.8 million incremental cash inflow stemming from changes to our net working capital, including decreased accounts receivable and increased accrued personnel costs. In addition, there was a $2.3 million increase in net income from continuing operations after adjustments for non-cash items that contributed to the comparative increase.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities decreased by $0.4 million in 2021, primarily driven by our $2.0 million real estate investment in BLVD Forty Four, partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in distributions from investments in real estate ventures.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $0.1 million in 2021, primarily driven by a $0.2 million decrease in net loan activity, partially offset by a $0.1 million increase in tax payments related to the net share settlement of equity awards.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time to time, we may have off-balance-sheet unconsolidated investments in real estate ventures and other unconsolidated arrangements with varying structures. For a full discussion of our current investments in real estate ventures, see Note 5 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accounting policies, methods and estimates are an integral part of the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, in part, are based upon management’s current judgments. Those judgments are normally based on knowledge and experience with regard to past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting policies, methods and estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ from management’s current judgments. While there are a number of accounting policies, methods and estimates affecting our consolidated financial statements, areas that are particularly significant include:

•Goodwill impairment

•Investments in real estate ventures at fair value

•Income taxes

15

Table of Contents

Goodwill impairment

On an annual basis as of October 1, and at interim periods when circumstances require, we test the recoverability of our goodwill and intangible assets and review for indicators of impairment. Examples of such indicators include a significant change in the business climate, increased competition, loss of key personnel, significant or unusual changes in market capitalization, negative or declining cash flows, or a decline in actual or planned revenue or earnings compared with actual and projected results of relevant prior periods.

We perform impairment assessments at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, also known as a component. Given that our goodwill balance on our consolidated balance sheets relates entirely to our Comstock Environmental Services ("CES") line of business, we perform our assessments on that single reporting unit.

To test for the recoverability of goodwill, we first perform a qualitative assessment based on economic, industry and company-specific factors the reporting unit to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the goodwill is impaired. Based on the results of the qualitative assessment, two additional steps in the impairment assessment may be required. The first step would require a comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to the respective carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss on a relative fair value basis, if any. We believe the methodology that we use, including both a discounted cash flow model as well as a market multiple model, to review impairment of goodwill, which includes a significant amount of judgment and estimates, provides us with a reasonable basis to determine whether impairment has occurred.

As part of our annual goodwill assessment, we determined that there were potential indicators of impairment based on facts and circumstances that have arisen surrounding the divestiture of CES (see "Recent Developments" section above). Upon performing the quantitative two-step impairment test, we determined that the carrying value of CES significantly exceeded its current fair value, which was estimated using Level 1 inputs. As a result, we recorded a $1.4 million impairment loss in the fourth quarter 2021 to fully write off the remaining goodwill balance. This impairment loss, along with the $0.3 million goodwill impairment loss recorded in our fiscal second quarter, resulted in a cumulative $1.7 million goodwill impairment charge in 2021 that is reflected in net income (loss) from discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in real estate ventures at fair value

For investments in real estate ventures reported at fair value, we maintain an investment account that is increased or decreased each reporting period by contributions, distributions, and the difference between the fair value of the investment and the carrying value as of the balance sheet date. These fair value adjustments are reflected as gains or losses in our consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of these investments as of the balance sheet date is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis, income approach, or sales-comparable approach, depending on the unique characteristics of the real estate venture.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on the deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We provide a valuation allowance when we consider it “more likely than not” (greater than a 50% probability) that a deferred income tax asset will not be fully recovered. Adjustments to the valuation allowance are a component of the income tax provision or benefit in our consolidated statements of operations.

In June 2021, based on our recent financial performance and current forecasts of future operating results, we determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets related to our net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards would be utilized in future periods. As a result, we recorded an $11.3 million income tax benefit in the second quarter of 2021 that represented a partial release of our valuation allowance.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Comstock Holding Companies, Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Realizability of Deferred Tax Assets and Valuation Allowance Assessment

As described further in note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company assesses available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of existing deferred tax assets. The Company has historically recorded valuation allowances for certain tax attributes and other deferred tax assets. During 2021, after weighing all available positive and negative evidence, the Company released $13.0 million of the valuation allowance as management deemed estimated future taxable income to be sufficient to realize certain deferred tax assets related to tax credit carryforwards and net operating losses.

The principal consideration for our determination that the realizability of deferred tax assets is a critical audit matter is that the estimate of future taxable income is an accounting estimate subject to a high level of estimation uncertainty. There is inherent uncertainty and subjectivity related to management’s judgments and assumptions regarding the Company’s future taxable income, the determination of which is complex in nature and may be affected by future operations of the Company and market or economic conditions. As such, significant auditor judgment was required.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Company Overview

Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. ("Comstock" or the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 2004 and is a leading developer and manager of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties with operations that are primarily focused in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

In February 2021, the Company amended the entity names for the five real estate-focused subsidiaries through which it primarily operates as part of operational efficiency enhancements. The entity names were changed as follows:

•CDS Asset Management, LC is now CHCI Asset Management, LC

•Comstock Commercial Management, LC is now CHCI Commercial Management, LC

•Comstock Residential Management, LC is now CHCI Residential Management, LC, and

•CDS Capital Management, L.C. is now CHCI Capital Management, LC.

On June 16, 2021, the Company made the strategic decision to pursue the sale of the operations of Comstock Environmental Services, LLC ("CES"), a subsidiary of Comstock, based on the continued growth and future prospects of the asset management business. Accordingly, the Company has reflected CES as a discontinued operation in its consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented, and have also designated CES assets and liabilities as held for sale in its consolidated balance sheets. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and disclosures relate to the Company's continuing operations. For additional information, see Note 3.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates, include, but are not limited to, the analysis of goodwill impairment, the valuation of equity method investments, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Assumptions made in the development of these estimates contemplate the macroeconomic landscape and the Company's anticipated results, however actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Fiscal Year

Comstock uses a fiscal reporting calendar which begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. The fiscal years presented are the years ended December 31, 2021 (“2021”) and December 31, 2020 (“2020”). Each of the Company’s fiscal quarters ends on the last day of the calendar month.

Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of a business that can earn revenue and incur expenses for which discrete financial information is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in order to decide how to allocate resources and assess performance.

Prior to June 30, 2021, the Company operated its business through two segments: Asset Management and Real Estate Services. Given the classification of CES, which included all material operations of the Company's Real Estate Services segment, as a discontinued operation (see Note 3), the Company now manages its business as one reportable operating segment.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these investments.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivables are recorded at the amount invoiced. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts on an as-needed basis to reduce the trade accounts receivables balance by the estimated amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The allowance for doubtful accounts estimate is based on the accounts receivable aging report, historical collection experience, and the payee's general financial condition. The Company does not record an allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable from related parties due to the nature of the receivables and collection history.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable from related parties. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions that management believes to be financially sound and with minimal credit risk. At times the Company's deposits exceed federally insured limits, however management believes that the Company’s credit risk exposure is mitigated by the financial strength of the banking institutions in which the deposits are held. The Company does a significant amount of business with related parties, demonstrated by related parties accounting for 99.3% of its consolidated revenue in 2021. The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but monitors the credit standing of its related party entities.

Equity Method Investments

The Company invests in certain real estate ventures that qualify for equity method accounting treatment, meaning the Company must adjust its asset carrying value by its proportionate share of earnings, losses, and distributions. However, based on elections made at the investment date, the Company may elect to record certain equity method investments at fair value. With this treatment, assets are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets and subsequently remeasured at each reporting period. The net change in the fair value of the investments is recorded on the consolidated statements of operations as other income (expense). See Note 5 for further information.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are as follows:

Asset Class						Estimated Useful Life
Leasehold improvements						Shorter of asset life or related lease term
Furniture and fixtures						7 years
Office equipment						5 years
Vehicles						5 years
Computer equipment						3 years
Capitalized software						3 years

Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

On an annual basis as of October 1, and at interim periods when circumstances require, the Company tests the recoverability of any goodwill and intangible assets balances that exist at that time and reviews for indicators of impairment. Examples of such indicators include a significant change in the business climate, increased competition, loss of key personnel, significant or unusual changes in market capitalization, negative or declining cash flows, or a decline in actual or planned revenue or earnings compared with actual and projected results of relevant prior periods.

F-8

Table of Contents

The Company performs impairment assessments at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, also known as a component. To test for the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment based on economic, industry and company-specific factors for all or selected reporting units to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. Based on the results of the qualitative assessment, two additional steps in the impairment assessment may be required. The first step would require a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value to the respective carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss on a relative fair value basis, if any. The estimate of the fair value of each reporting unit is based on a projected discounted cash flow model that includes significant assumptions and estimates including the Company's discount rate, growth rate and future financial performance as well as a market multiple model based upon similar transactions in the market. Assumptions about the discount rate are based on a weighted average cost of capital built up from various interest rate components applicable to the Company. Assumptions about the growth rate and future financial performance of a reporting unit are based on the Company's forecasts, business plans, economic projections and anticipated future cash flows. Market multiples are derived from recent transactions among businesses of a similar size and industry.

The Company amortizes certain identifiable intangible assets that have finite lives. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment, when deemed necessary, based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, are written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities that are reported at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting guidance establishes a defined three-tier hierarchy to classify and disclose the fair value of assets and liabilities on both the date of their initial measurement as well as all subsequent periods. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value by the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are described as follows:

•Level 1: Observable inputs. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

•Level 2: Observable inputs other than the quoted price. Includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs. Includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require the Company to develop relevant assumptions.

The Company evaluates its financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level of classification as of each reporting period.

Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and the classification of a lease, if applicable, is made at lease commencement, at which time the Company also measures and recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset, representing the Company’s right to use the underlying asset, and a lease liability, representing the Company’s obligation to make lease payments under the terms of the arrangement. Operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments (e.g. rent) over the lease term beginning at the commencement date. The operating lease assets are adjusted for lease incentives, deferred rent, and initial direct costs, if incurred. The related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company's leases generally do not include an implicit rate; therefore, an incremental borrowing rate is used that is based on information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future minimum lease payments. The Company looks to similar credit ratings and bond yields when determining the incremental borrowing rate.

For the purposes of recognizing operating lease assets and liabilities, the Company has elected the practical expedient to not recognize an asset or lease liability for short-term leases, which are leases with a term of twelve months or less. The lease term is defined as the non-cancelable portion of the lease term plus any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

Table of Contents

Revenue

The Company’s revenue streams, revenue recognition policies, and cost of revenue details are summarized by the following:

Asset Management/Property Management

Asset management pricing includes a cost-plus management fee or a market-rate fee form of variable consideration, and the Company earns whichever is higher. Property Management pricing is generally in the form of a monthly management fee based upon property-level cash receipts, square footage under management, or some other variable metric. In addition, property management revenue includes reimbursable expenses such as payroll and other employee costs for those performing services at managed properties.

Asset and property management services represent a series of distinct daily services rendered over time. The revenue for asset and property management services is presented gross for any services provided by the Company's employees and presented net of third-party reimbursements in instances where the Company does not control third-party services delivered to the client. Consistent with the transfer of control for distinct, daily services to the customer, revenue is typically recognized at the end of each period for the fees associated with the services performed.

Capital Markets

Compensation for commercial mortgage and structured financing services is received via fees paid upon successful commercial financing from third-party lenders. The earned fees are contingent upon the funding of the loan, which represents the transfer of control for services to the customer. Therefore, the Company's performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time of the funding of the loan, when there is a present right to payment.

Leasing

Compensation for providing strategic advice and execution for owners, investors, and occupiers is received in the form of a commission. The commission is paid upon signing of the lease by the tenant, therefore the Company's performance obligation is satisfied at the time of the contractual event, where there is a present right to payment.

Project & Development Services

Fees for project and development services for owners and occupiers of real estate are typically variable and based on a percentage of the total project cost. Project and development services represent a series of performance obligations delivered over time, therefore the Company recognizes revenue over time for these services accordingly.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue is composed primarily of employment expenses for personnel dedicated to providing services to the Anchor Portfolio as well as the costs and expenses of the Company related to maintaining the public listing of its shares and complying with related regulatory and reporting obligations pursuant to the 2019 Asset Management Agreement ("2019 AMA" - see Note 14 for further details). It also includes payroll and other reimbursable expenses incurred under the Company's various property management agreements.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units is measured based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of stock option awards. The exercise price of stock option awards is set to equal the quoted closing market price of the underlying common stock at the date of the grant. The following weighted-average assumptions are also used to calculate the estimated fair value of stock option awards:

•Expected volatility: The expected volatility of the Company’s shares is estimated using the historical stock price volatility over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected term of the awards.

•Expected term: The Company determines the expected term by calculating the weighted-average period of time between the grant date and exercise or post-vesting cancellation date of all outstanding stock options.

•Dividend yield: The Company has not paid dividends and does not anticipate paying a cash dividend in the foreseeable future and, accordingly, uses an expected dividend yield of zero.

•Risk-free interest rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield available on a U.S. Treasury note with a term equal to the estimated expected term of the awards.

F-10

---

Table of Contents

The Company applies the graded vesting attribution method to recognize compensation expense for stock-based awards. Using this method, the estimated grant-date fair value of the award is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche as though each tranche of the award is, in substance, a separate award. This advanced recognition expense from future vesting tranches results in the accelerated recognition of the overall compensation cost related to the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. For awards with a performance-based vesting condition, the Company accrues stock-based compensation expense if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on the deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We provide a valuation allowance when we consider it “more likely than not” (greater than 50% probability) that a deferred income tax asset will not be fully recovered. Adjustments to the valuation allowance are a component of the deferred income tax expense or benefit in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the fully diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding amount includes the impact of common share equivalents, which are the incremental shares of common stock that would be issuable upon the hypothetical exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock unit awards. The common stock equivalents are calculated using the treasury stock method and average market prices during the periods, and are included in the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation unless their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions, clarifying existing guidance and improving consistent application of the guidance. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance is intended to introduce a revised approach to the recognition and measurement of credit losses, emphasizing an updated model based on current expected credit losses ("CECL") rather than incurred losses. The standard will become effective for the Company for financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

3. Discontinued Operations

On June 16, 2021, the Company made the strategic decision to pursue the sale of the operations of Comstock Environmental Services, LLC ("CES"), a subsidiary of Comstock, based on the continued growth of the asset management business as well as its future prospects.

The following table reconciles major line items constituting pretax income (loss) from discontinued operations to net income (loss) from discontinued operations as presented in the consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

As part of our annual goodwill assessment, we determined that there were potential indicators of impairment based on facts and circumstances that have arisen surrounding the divestiture of CES (See Note 1). Upon performing the quantitative two-step impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying value of CES significantly exceeded its current fair value, which was estimated using Level 1 inputs. As a result, a $1.4 million impairment loss was recorded in December 2021 to fully write off the remaining goodwill balance. This impairment loss, along with the $0.3 million goodwill impairment loss recorded in the Company's fiscal second quarter, resulted in a cumulative $1.7 million goodwill impairment charge in 2021 that is reflected in net income (loss) from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.

Investors X

On April 30, 2019, the Company entered into a Master Transfer agreement with CP Real Estate Services, LC (“CPRES”), formerly Comstock Development Services, LC, an entity wholly owned by the Company’s CEO, Christopher Clemente, which entitled the Company to priority distribution of residual cash flow from its Class B membership interest in Comstock Investors X, L.C. ("Investors X"), an unconsolidated variable interest entity that owns the Company's residual homebuilding operations. As of December 31, 2021, the residual cash flow primarily relates to anticipated returns of cash backing outstanding letters of credit and cash collateral posted for land development work performed by subsidiaries owned by Investors X. The cash will be released as bond release work associated with these projects is completed. In addition, a subsidiary of Investors X is undergoing a re-zoning from commercial to residential and the Company will be entitled to 50% of the profit from the anticipated residential lot sales after re-zoning and land development work is completed. Expected future cash flows include contractually fixed revenues and expenses, as well as estimates for future revenues and expenses where contracts do not currently exist. These estimates are based on prior experience as well as comparable, third-party data. See Note 14 for further information.

The Hartford

In December 2019, the Company partnered with Comstock Partners, LC (“Partners”), an entity that is controlled by our CEO, and wholly-owned by Mr. Clemente and certain family members, to acquire a Class-A office building immediately adjacent to Clarendon Station on Metro’s Orange Line in Arlington County’s premier transit-oriented office market, the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor. Built in 2003, the 211,000 square foot mixed-use Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) GOLD building is approximately 76% leased to multiple high-quality tenants. In February 2020, the Company arranged for DivcoWest to purchase a majority ownership stake in the Hartford Building and secured a $87 million loan facility from MetLife. As part of the transaction, the Company entered into asset management and property management agreements to manage the property. Fair value is determined using an income approach and sales comparable approach models. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in the Hartford was 2.5%.

BLVD Forty Four

In October 2021, the Company entered into a joint venture with Partners to acquire BLVD Forty Four, a 15-story, luxury high-rise apartment building located one block from the Rockville Metro Station and in the heart of the I-270 Technology and Life Science Corridor in Montgomery County. Built in 2015, the 263-unit mixed use property includes approximately 16,000 square feet of

retail and a commercial parking garage. In connection with the transaction, the Company received an acquisition fee and will also receive investment related income and incentive fees in connection with its equity interest in the asset. The Company also provides asset, residential, retail and parking property management services for the property in exchange for market rate fees. The Company considers BLVD Forty Four to be a variable interest entity upon which it exercises significant influence; however, considering key factors such as the Company’s ownership interest and participation in policy-making decisions by majority equity holders, the Company concluded that it does not control the investment. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in BLVD Forty Four was 5%.

In addition, the Company has a joint venture with Superior Title Services, Inc. ("STS") to provide title insurance to its clients. The Company records this co-investment using the equity method of accounting and adjusts the carrying value of the investment for its proportionate share of net income and distributions. The carrying value of the STS investment is recorded in "other assets" on the Company's consolidated statement of balance sheets. The Company's proportionate share of net income and distributions are recorded in other income (expense) and were $0.1 million and immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Credit Facility - Due to Affiliates

On March 19, 2020, the Company entered into a Revolving Capital Line of Credit Agreement with CP Real Estate Services, LC (“CPRES”), formerly known as Comstock Development Services, LC, pursuant to which the Company secured a $10.0 million capital line of credit (the “Credit Facility”). Under the terms, the Credit Facility provides for an initial variable interest rate of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.00% per annum on advances made under the Credit Facility, payable monthly in arrears. The Credit Facility also allows for interim draws that carry a maturity date of 12 months from the initial date of the disbursement unless a longer initial term is agreed to by CPRES. On March 27, 2020, the Company borrowed $5.5 million under the Credit Facility and signed an unsecured promissory note to repay principal and interest on the $5.5 million borrowed by the April 30, 2023 maturity date.

Unsecured Promissory Note - Comstock Growth Fund

On October 17, 2014, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note with Comstock Growth Fund, L.C. (“CGF”) whereby CGF made a loan to the Company in the initial principal amount of $10.0 million and a maximum amount available for borrowing of up to $20.0 million with a three year term. On December 18, 2014, the loan agreement was amended and restated to provide for a maximum capacity of $25 million. On May 23, 2018, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Exchange and Subscription Agreement, together with a revised promissory note agreement, in which a promissory note with an outstanding

principal and accrued interest balance of $7.7 million was exchanged for 1,482,300 shares of the Company’s Series C Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share and a stated liquidation value of $5.00 per share, issued by the Company to CPRES. The Company exchanged the preferred equity for 91.5% of CPRES membership interest in the CGF promissory note. Concurrently, the face amount of the CGF promissory note was reduced to $5.7 million. The CGF promissory note was repaid in full prior to maturity during the year ended December 31, 2020.

CARES Act - Paycheck Protection Plan Loan

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) was established under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Companies who met the eligibility requirements set forth by the PPP could qualify for PPP loans provided by local lenders, which supports payroll, rent and utility expenses (“qualified expenses”). If the loan proceeds are fully utilized to pay qualified expenses over the covered period, as further defined by the PPP, the full principal amount of the PPP loan may qualify for loan forgiveness, subject to potential reduction based on the level of full-time employees maintained by the organization during the covered period as compared to a baseline period.

In April 2020, the Company received proceeds of $1.95 million under the PPP (the "PPP Loan") provided by Mainstreet Bank (the “Lender”). Based on the term and conditions of the loan agreement, the term of the PPP loan is two years with an annual interest rate of 1% and principal and interest payments will be deferred for the first six-months of the loan term, which has been updated according to the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 (“Flexibility Act”). The Company recognized PPP funding as a contra-expense during the three months ended June 30, 2020, when qualified expenses were incurred. The Lender received notice that the PPP Loan was fully forgiven by the SBA in April 2021.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases its headquarters under a non-cancelable operating lease. The lease contains various renewal options. See Note 6 for further information on the Company's operating lease commitments.

The Company is subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business; however, the Company does not expect the results, if any, to have a material adverse impact on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity. The Company records a contingent liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company expenses legal defense costs as they are incurred.

9. Fair Value Disclosures

As of December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had certain equity method investments in real estate ventures that it elected to record at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). For further information on these investments, see Note 5.

As of December 31, 2021, based upon unobservable market rates (Level 3), the fair value of the Company’s floating rate debt was estimated to approximate carrying value.

The Company may also value its non-financial assets and liabilities, including items such as long-lived assets, at fair value on a non-recurring basis if it is determined that impairment has occurred. Such fair value measurements typically use significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), unless a quoted market price (Level 1) or quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, or amounts derived from valuation models (Level 2) are available.

10. Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock

The Company's certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, each with a part value of $0.01 per share. Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are entitled to dividends when, as and if, declared by the Company's board of directors, subject to the rights of the holders of all classes of stock outstanding having priority rights to dividends. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share and holders of Class B common stock are entitled to fifteen votes per share. Shares of our Class B common stock are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of our Class A common stock and generally convert into shares of our Class A common stock upon transfer. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not declared any dividends.

Preferred Stock

The Company's certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of Series C non-convertible preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share and a stated value of $5.00 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock has a discretionary, non-cumulative, dividend feature and is redeemable for $5.00 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock is redeemable by holders in the event of liquidation or change in control of the Company. likelihood of such an unintended “ownership change”, thus preserving the value of these tax benefits

Stock-based Compensation

On February 12, 2019 the Company approved the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), which replaced the 2004 Long-Term Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The 2019 Plan provides for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalents, performance awards, and stock or other stock-based awards. The 2019 Plan mandates that all lapsed, forfeited, expired, terminated, cancelled and withheld shares, including those from the predecessor plan, be returned to the 2019 Plan and made available for issuance. The 2019 Plan originally authorized 2.5 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock for issuance. As of December 31, 2021, there were 1.4 million shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, there was $0.9 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards granted to employees are subject to continued employment and generally vest in four annual installments over the four years period following the grant dates. The Company also grants certain RSU awards to management that contain additional vesting conditions tied directly to a defined performance metric for the Company (“PSUs”). The actual number of PSUs that will vest can range from 60% to 120% of the original grant target amount, depending upon actual Company performance below or above the established performance metric targets. The Company estimates performance in relation to the defined targets when calculating the related stock-based compensation expense.

The following table summarizes all restricted stock unit activity (in thousands, except per share data):

			RSUs Outstanding						Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value

Share Repurchase Program

In November 2014, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 429,000 shares of our Class A common stock in one or more open market or privately negotiated transactions depending on market price and other factors. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, 404,000 shares of our Class A common stock remain available for repurchase pursuant to our share repurchase program.

Other			8.55		%				1.50		%
Effective tax rate			(232.62)		%				1.15		%

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. Prior to 2021, the Company had recorded valuation allowances for certain tax attributes and deferred tax assets due the existence of sufficient uncertainty regarding the future realization of those deferred tax assets through future taxable income. In June 2021, based on its recent financial performance and current forecasts of future operating results, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets related to its net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards would be utilized in future periods. As a result, the Company recorded an $11.3 million income tax benefit in the second quarter of 2021 that represented a partial release of its valuation allowance. If, in the future, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the rest of the deferred tax benefits will be realized, the full valuation allowance will be reversed. Conversely, if future results of operations are lower than currently forecasted, the Company may need to re-establish a valuation allowance accordingly.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company has approximately $139 million of net operating loss (“NOL") carryforwards. These NOLs, if unused, will begin expiring in 2027. Under Code Section 382 (“Section 382”) rules, if a change of ownership is triggered, the Company’s NOL assets and possibly certain other deferred tax assets may be impaired. Given Section 382’s broad definition, an ownership change could be the unintended consequence of otherwise normal market trading in the Company’s stock that is outside of the Company’s control. In an effort to preserve the availability of these NOLs, the Company has adopted a Section 382 rights agreement that is scheduled to expire on March 27, 2025. The Section 382 rights agreement helps to reduce the likelihood of an unintended “ownership change”, thus preserving the value of these future tax benefits. We estimate that as of December 31, 2021, the three-year cumulative shift in ownership of the Company’s stock has not triggered a limitation in the use of our NOL asset. However, if an ownership change were to occur, the Section 382 limitation would not be expected to materially impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations as of December 31, 2021.

As of December 31, 2021, there were no uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate. We file U.S. and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. All of our income tax returns remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities due to the availability of our NOL carryforwards.

The 2019 AMA is currently scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2027 (“Initial Term”) and will automatically renew for successive additional one-year terms (each an “Extension Term”) unless CPRES delivers written notice of non-renewal at least 180 days prior to the termination date. twenty-four months after the effective date of the 2019 AMA, CPRES is entitled to terminate the 2019 AMA without cause provided 180 days advance written notice is delivered to CAM. In the event of such a termination, and in addition to the payment of any accrued annual fees due and payable as of the termination date under the 2019 AMA, CPRES is required to pay a termination fee equal to (i) the Market Rate Fee or the Cost Plus Fee paid to CAM for the calendar year immediately preceding the termination , and (ii) a one-time payment of the Incentive Fee as if the CRE Portfolio were liquidated for fair market value as of the termination date; or the continued payment of the Incentive Fee as if a termination had not occurred.

Residential, Commercial and Parking Property Management Agreements

The Company entered into separate residential property management agreements with properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to manage and operate the properties including tenant communications, leasing of apartment units, rent collections, building maintenance and day-to-day operations, engagement and supervision of contractors and vendors providing services for the buildings, and budget preparation and oversight.

The Company entered into separate commercial property and parking management agreements with several properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to manage and operate the office and retail portions of the properties, including tenant communications, rent collections, building maintenance and day-to-day operations, engagement and supervision of contractors and vendors providing services for the buildings, and budget preparation and oversight. These property management agreements each have initial terms of one year with successive, automatic one year renewal terms. The Company generally receives base management fees under these agreements based upon a percentage of gross rental revenues for the portions of the buildings being managed in addition to reimbursement of specified expenses, including employment expenses of personnel employed by the Company in the management and operation of each property.

Construction Management Agreements

The Company has construction management agreements with properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to provide certain construction management and supervision services, including construction supervision and management of the buildout of certain tenant premises. The Company receives a flat construction management fee for each engagement under a work authorization based upon the construction management or supervision fee set forth in the applicable tenant’s lease, which fee is generally 1% to 4% of the total costs (or total hard costs) of construction of the tenant’s improvements in its premises, or as otherwise agreed to by the parties.

Business Management Agreements

On April 30, 2019, CAM entered into a Business Management Agreement (the “BMA”) with Investors X, whereby CAM will provide Investors X with asset and professional services related to the wind down of the Company’s divested homebuilding operations and the continuation of services related to the Company’s divested land development activities. The aggregate fee payable to CAM from Investors X under the Management Agreement is $937,500 payable in 15 quarterly installments of $62,500 each.

On July 1, 2019, CAM entered into a Business Management Agreement (the “BC Management Agreement”) with CPRES, whereby CAM provides CPRES with professional management and consultation services, including, without limitation, consultation on land development and real estate transactions, for a residential community located in Monteverde, Florida. The initial term of the BC Management Agreement expired on December 31, 2020, subject to automatic, successive one (1) year extensions, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the BC Management Agreement. The current term of the BC Management Agreement expires on December 31, 2022. The BC Management Agreement provides that CPRES will pay CAM an annual management fee equal to $337,500, payable in equal monthly installments during the term commencing on July 1, 2019, and will reimburse CAM for certain expenses.

investment, the Company entered into an operating agreement with Partners to form Comstock 3101 Wilson, LC, to purchase the Hartford. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Company holds a minority membership interest of the Hartford and the remaining membership interests of the Hartford are held by Partners. Partners is the manager of the Hartford. In connection with the transaction, the Company received an acquisition fee and is entitled to asset management, property management, construction management  and leasing fees for its management of the property, pursuant to separate agreements between the Hartford, or its affiliates, and the Company, or its affiliates. The Company is also entitled to an incentive fee related to the performance of the investment.

In February 2020, the Company, Partners and DWF VI 3101 Wilson Member, LLC (“DWF”), an unaffiliated, third party, equity investor in the Hartford, entered into a limited liability company agreement (the “DWC Operating Agreement”) to form DWC 3101 Wilson Venture, LLC (“DWC”) to, among other things, acquire, own and hold all interests in the Hartford Owner. In furtherance thereof, on February 7, 2020, the Original Operating Agreement for the Hartford Owner was amended and restated (the “A&R Operating Agreement”) to memorialize the Company’s and Partners’ assignment of 100% of its membership interests in the Hartford Owner to DWC. As a result thereof, DWC is the sole member of the Hartford Owner. The Company and Partners, respectively, hold minority membership interests in, and DWF holds the majority membership interest in, DWC. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in the Hartford was 2.5%.

BLVD Forty Four Investment

In October 2021, the Company entered into a joint venture with Partners to acquire BLVD Forty Four, a 15-story, luxury high-rise apartment building located one block from the Rockville Metro Station and in the heart of the I-270 Technology and Life Science Corridor in Montgomery County. Built in 2015, the 263-unit mixed use property includes approximately 16,000 square feet of retail and a commercial parking garage. In connection with the transaction, the Company received an acquisition fee and will also receive investment related income and incentive fees in connection with its equity interest in the asset. The Company will also provide asset, residential, retail and parking property management services for the property in exchange for market rate fees. The Company considers BLVD Forty Four to be a variable interest entity upon which it exercises significant influence; however, considering key factors such as the Company’s ownership interest and participation in policy-making decisions by majority equity holders, the Company concluded that it does not control the investment. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in BLVD Forty Four was 5%.

Credit Facility and Unsecured Promissory Note

On March 19, 2020, the Company entered into a Revolving Capital Line of Credit Agreement with CPRES, pursuant to which the Company secured a $10.0 million capital line of credit (the “Credit Facility”). Under the terms, the Credit Facility provides for an initial variable interest rate of the WSJ Prime Rate plus 1.00% per annum on advances made under the Credit Facility, payable monthly in arrears. The five-year term facility allows for interim draws that carry a maturity date of 12 months from the initial date of the disbursement unless a longer initial term is agreed to by CPRES. On March 27, 2020 the Company borrowed $5.5 million under the Credit Facility. On April 10, 2020, the capital provided to the Company by the Credit Facility was utilized to retire all of the Company’s corporate indebtedness owed to CGF. See Note 7 for further description of the Credit Facility and CGF unsecured promissory note.

The Company currently matches the first 3% of participant contributions limited to 3% of a participant’s gross compensation (maximum Company match is 4%. The combined total expense for this plan was $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as of December 31, 2021. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act.

We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 based on the Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2021.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only assurance, at the reasonable assurance level, that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change has occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our last fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(a) and 15d-14(a) are filed with this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. The certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to 18 U.S.C.1350 are furnished with this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibit 32.1.
