1. ORGANIZATION

Comstock Holding Companies, Inc., incorporated in 2004 as a Delaware corporation, is a multi-faceted asset management and services company primarily focused in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Statistical Area. In 2018, the Company made a strategic decision to transform its operating platform from being primarily focused on developing on-balance sheet, for-sale, homebuilding projects to being focused on commercial and residential asset management and real estate related services. On April 30, 2019 the Company announced the exit from the homebuilding business. The Company now operates through five primarily real estate focused subsidiaries – CDS Asset Management, LC (“CAM”), Comstock Residential Management, LC, Comstock Commercial Management, LC, Park X Management, LC and Comstock Environmental Services, LC (“CES”). The Company’s homebuilding operations are presented in Discontinued Operations (see Note 19 – Discontinued Operations). References in these Consolidated Financial Statements to “Comstock,” “Company”, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. together in each case with our subsidiaries unless the context suggests otherwise.

Liquidity Developments

We finance our Asset management and Real Estate Services operations, capital expenditures, and business acquisitions with internally generated funds, borrowings from our credit facilities and long-term debt. Pursuant to the Master Transfer Agreement (“MTA”), the Company transferred to Comstock Development Services, LC (“CDS”), an entity owned and controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, its Class A membership interests in Investors X, the entity owning the Company’s residual homebuilding operations in exchange for certain residual cash flows over the next three years (“Investors X”). Refer to Note 13 – Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities for further discussion regarding the accounting related to discontinued operations. The associated debt obligations were also transferred to CDS. See Note 9 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for more details on our debt and credit facilities.

At December 31, 2019, $5.7 million of our notes payable to affiliates were set to mature prior to the end of 2020. These funds were primarily obtained from entities wholly owned by our Chief Executive Officer, and the Company. On March 19, 2020, the Company entered into a $10 million revolving line of credit agreement with CDS with an initial term of five years.
