Its stock trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol CWD.

Caliber describes itself as a diversified real estate and digital asset management platform. The firm’s core business is a private equity real estate investment platform, complemented by a growing digital asset strategy. Across its platform, Caliber is involved in hospitality, multi-family, and industrial real estate, and it offers investors access through its publicly traded equity and private real estate funds.

Business model and asset management platform

Caliber operates an asset management platform that generates revenue from activities such as fund management fees, financing fees, development and construction fees, brokerage fees, and performance allocations. In its financial reporting, the company distinguishes between the performance of its asset management "Platform" and the consolidated results required under U.S. GAAP, noting that Platform results focus on revenues and expenses that directly benefit CWD stockholders.

The company has reported three main revenue categories within its asset management activities: fund management fees, financing fees, and development and construction fees, alongside brokerage fees and performance allocations. These activities are tied to Caliber’s role in structuring, managing, and servicing investment vehicles and real estate-related projects.

Private equity real estate focus

Caliber emphasizes a 16-year track record in private equity real estate investing. Its disclosures highlight experience across hospitality, multi-family, and industrial real estate. The firm also references opportunities it sees in distressed real estate assets, and it has discussed the performance of its private equity real estate investment platform in investor presentations.

Through its private real estate funds and related vehicles, Caliber seeks to deploy capital into real estate projects and platforms, while earning asset management and related fees. The company has also referenced joint venture developments, such as a project branded PURE Pickleball & Padel, which is supported by a long-term agreement with a premium catering and hospitality company.

Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) strategy anchored in Chainlink (LINK)

A distinctive element of Caliber’s current strategy is its Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) initiative. The company states that in 2025 it became the first U.S. public real estate platform to launch a DAT strategy anchored in Chainlink’s token, LINK. Caliber describes this strategy as an equity-funded, disciplined approach that aims to bridge real and digital asset investing.

Under this DAT strategy, Caliber allocates a portion of its treasury funds to acquire LINK tokens associated with the Chainlink protocol and to engage in activities related to managing these holdings and seeking risk-adjusted returns. The company has announced multiple strategic purchases of LINK tokens and has disclosed its intention to build one of the largest LINK treasuries held by a public company. Caliber also highlights that this approach provides shareholders with transparent, mark-to-market exposure to LINK through CWD stock.

Caliber has further stated that its DAT strategy includes staking LINK tokens to support Chainlink node operators. The company has announced an initial stake of LINK tokens with a leading Chainlink node operator, marking its first direct participation in the infrastructure that secures the Chainlink Network. Through staking, Caliber expects to earn token-denominated yield while maintaining possession and control of its LINK holdings, and it positions this activity as participation in the economic value of onchain finance infrastructure.

Position at the intersection of real and digital assets

In its communications, Caliber repeatedly describes itself as positioned at the intersection of real asset investing and blockchain infrastructure. The company links its legacy in private equity real estate with its newer focus on digital asset infrastructure, particularly the Chainlink ecosystem. It has sponsored and attended industry events such as Chainlink’s SmartCon conference, where it presents its investment platform centered on both real and digital assets.

Caliber’s DAT strategy is described as involving gradual, measured acquisitions of LINK tokens, with the goal of dollar-cost-averaging purchases and generating long-term appreciation and staking yield. The company has also formed a Caliber Crypto Advisory Board to provide strategic oversight and guidance as it executes this strategy, focusing on building a treasury of LINK tokens to be held and staked for long-term value and yield.

Capital structure and Nasdaq listing compliance

Caliber is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and has addressed stockholders’ equity requirements for continued listing. The company has disclosed that it previously received a notification from Nasdaq that its stockholders’ equity had fallen below the required minimum under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Subsequent filings and press releases state that Caliber undertook various equity offerings and debt conversions, including a noteholder debt-to-equity conversion program, to strengthen its balance sheet and increase stockholders’ equity.

The company has reported that it believes it regained compliance with Nasdaq’s stockholders’ equity requirement and later received formal notice from Nasdaq confirming that it had regained compliance, based on reported stockholders’ equity above the required threshold. Caliber has characterized these actions as part of broader efforts to reduce leverage, improve cash flow, and increase financial flexibility.

Note conversion program and financing initiatives

In connection with its capital management, Caliber launched a note conversion program allowing holders of certain unsecured corporate notes to convert their notes into shares of Class A common stock. The program contemplates multiple closings, each limited to a specified aggregate value of notes, with conversion prices based on market prices of the common stock. The company has reported closing an initial tranche of conversions, resulting in the issuance of shares and the elimination of interest-bearing debt.

Caliber has also disclosed equity raises through common and preferred equity, including perpetual convertible preferred equity, as part of its efforts to strengthen liquidity and stockholders’ equity. These initiatives are presented by the company as steps toward improving its financial position and supporting its growth objectives.

Trading, custody, and digital asset infrastructure partners

To support its DAT strategy, Caliber has selected institutional platforms for trading and custody of its LINK holdings. The company has announced relationships with Coinbase Prime and StoneX as institutional platforms that provide access to liquidity and institutional-grade custody for its digital asset treasury. These arrangements are intended to support Caliber’s accumulation, trading, and custody of LINK tokens in line with its treasury policy.

Investor access and participation

Caliber states that investors can participate in its strategies through its publicly traded equity (Nasdaq: CWD) and through private real estate funds. By holding CWD shares, investors gain exposure to the performance of Caliber’s asset management platform, which includes its private equity real estate activities and its LINK-focused Digital Asset Treasury. The company also conducts investor presentations and participates in conferences to discuss its business model, capital structure, and outlook.

Company status

Based on recent press releases and Form 8-K filings, Caliber continues to operate as a Nasdaq-listed alternative asset manager. Its disclosures emphasize ongoing operations in private equity real estate, expansion into digital asset management via its LINK-anchored DAT strategy, and continued efforts to manage capital structure and maintain listing compliance.
