Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Comstock Holding Companies, Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Comstock Holding Companies, Inc.

(a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020, 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, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020, 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 audit.

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 audit 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides 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) relates 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

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

As discussed in Notes 4 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company holds an equity investment in Comstock Investors X, L.C.

(“Investors X”) and accounts for its investment as an unconsolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”) under the equity method.

To reach its accounting conclusion, the Company evaluates whether it holds a controlling financial interest in Investors X.

A controlling financial interest is defined as (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We identified the assessment of the primary beneficiaries of Investors X as a critical audit matter.

The principal consideration that the assessment of the primary beneficiaries of Investors X is a critical audit matter is that auditing the Company’s determination of whether it has power required significant auditor judgment to evaluate both the activities of the investee that most significantly impact the investee’s economics and the distribution of the power among the members of Investors X through governing documents and related service agreements that ultimately determine the outcome of such activities.

The Company’s determination that it does not have the power to direct the significant activities impacting each of the investees’ economic performance (“power”) is key to its determination that it is not the primary beneficiary of Investors X and does not have to consolidate the entity.

Our audit procedures related to the assessment of the primary beneficiary of Investors X included the following, among others:

• We read the Investors X governing documents (including related service agreements) and underlying financial information and made inquiries with management to obtain a detailed understanding of the entity and its operations.

• We compared the key facts included in management's analysis to the governing documents and the Company's interests in Investors X.

• We evaluated whether the Company’s conclusion that Investors X met the criteria of a VIE was appropriate and in accordance with relevant accounting guidance.

• Through consultation with our national office, we evaluated whether the Company's assessment effectively identified the primary beneficiary of Investors X through an analysis of the significant activities of Investors X and which parties hold the power to direct those significant activities and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from Investors X, in accordance with relevant accounting guidance.

• We considered the evidence obtained in other areas of the audit to determine if there were reconsideration events that had not been identified by the Company, including, among others, reading board minutes and confirming the terms of certain agreements, if any.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except per share data, number of units, or as otherwise noted)

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”).

See Note 21 - Subsequent Events for entity name changes that occurred on February 18, 2021.

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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies and practices used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements is as follows:

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.

Investments in real estate ventures over which we exercise significant influence, but do not control, are accounted for either at fair value or under the equity method.

When applying principles of consolidation, we begin by determining whether an investee entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") or a voting interest entity.

GAAP draws a distinction between voting interest entities, which are embodied by common and traditional corporate and certain partnership structures, and VIEs, broadly defined as entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights.

For voting interest entities, the interest holder with control through majority ownership and majority voting rights consolidates the entity.

For VIEs, determination of the "primary beneficiary" dictates the accounting treatment.

We identify the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise having both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We perform the primary beneficiary analysis as of the inception of our investment and upon the occurrence of a reconsideration event.

When we determine we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the VIE;

when we determine we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we account for our investment in the VIE at fair value or under the equity method, based upon an election made at the time of investment.

Our determination of the appropriate accounting method to apply for unconsolidated investments is based on the level of influence we have in the underlying entity.

When we have an asset management or property management contract with a real estate limited partnership in which we also hold an ownership interest, the combination of our limited partner interest and the management agreement generally provides us with significant influence over such real estate limited partnership.

Accordingly, we account for such investments either at fair value or under the equity method.

We eliminate transactions with such subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership in such subsidiaries.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the 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.

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates are utilized, including but not limited to, the valuation of equity method investments, valuation of deferred tax assets, analysis of goodwill impairment, and valuation of equity-based compensation.

Discontinued Operations

On July 23, 2019 the Company completed the transfer of Investors X subject to the Master Transfer Agreement (“MTA”).

For the year ended December 31, 2019, we classified revenues and expenses related to Investors X into discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

See Note 19 – Discontinued Operations.

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.

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions that at times exceeds federally insured limits.

Management believes that the Company’s credit risk exposure is mitigated by the financial strength of the banking institution in which the deposits are held.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $ 5.3 million in U.S.

bank accounts which were not fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

Trade Receivables and Concentration of Credit Risk

Trade receivables are recorded at the amount invoiced.

We reduce accounts receivable by estimating an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future.

Management determines the estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts based on their judgements in evaluating the aging of the receivables and the financial condition of our clients, which may be dependent on the type of client and the client’s current financial condition.

The Company does significant business with related party entities.

Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of related party receivables.

The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but monitors the credit standing of related party entities.

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from various related party entities;

with related party entities accounting for 79 % of the Company’s total consolidated revenues in 2020.

See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions for more information.

Investments in real estate ventures

We invest in certain real estate ventures that primarily own and operate real estate in two sectors, land development and commercial office.

These investments take the form of equity ownership interests and, based upon investment-specific objectives, have included three to seven year planned investment periods.

Our investments in real estate ventures are not redeemable until the disposition of the underlying real estate investment.

We have elected to account for these equity method investments using the fair value option.

For investments in real estate ventures reported at fair value, we maintain an investment account that is increased or decreased each reporting period by 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 on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The fair value of these investments as of the balance sheet date is generally determined using a Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) analysis, based upon unobservable inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

See Note 4 - Equity Method Investments in Real Estate Ventures Carried at Fair Value for additional information on Investments in real estate ventures.

Fixed assets, net

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Leasehold improvements

Shorter of asset life or related lease term

Furniture and fixtures

Office equipment

Computer equipment

Capitalized software

Our operating leases are related to office space we lease in various buildings for our own use.

The terms of these non-cancelable operating leases typically require us to pay rent and a share of operating expenses and real estate taxes, generally with an inflation-based rent increase included.

Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Operating lease right-of-use 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 right-of-use assets are adjusted for lease incentives, deferred rent, and initial direct costs, if incurred.

Our leases generally do not include an implicit rate;

therefore, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future minimum lease payments.

The related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

See Note 6 – Leases for more information.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business acquisition.

Following an acquisition, we perform an analysis to value the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

With respect to identifiable intangible assets, we consider backlog, non-compete agreements, client relationships, trade names, patents and other assets.

We amortize our intangible assets based on the period over which the contractual or economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be realized.

We assess the recoverability of the unamortized balance of our intangible assets when indicators of impairment are present based on expected future profitability and undiscounted expected cash flows and their contribution to our overall operations.

Should the review indicate that the carrying value is not fully recoverable, the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the intangible assets would be recognized as an impairment loss.

We perform our annual goodwill impairment review during our fourth quarter as of October 1.

In addition, we regularly evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that may indicate a potential change in recoverability of goodwill.

We perform interim goodwill impairment reviews between our annual reviews if certain events and circumstances have occurred, including a deterioration in general economic conditions, an increased competitive environment, a change in management, key personnel, strategy or customers, 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.

When assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first assess qualitative factors to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than it’s carrying amount or elect to bypass such assessment.

If it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than it’s carrying value, or the Company elects to bypass such assessment, the Company then determines the fair value of each reporting unit.

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 fair value of each reporting unit is compared to the carrying amount of the reporting unit.

If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, then an impairment loss is recognized for the difference

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are deferred and amortized as interest expense over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method for term debt and on a straight-line basis for revolving debt.

To the extent that debt is outstanding, these amounts are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as direct deductions of debt and as assets for costs related to revolving debt.

See Note 8 for additional information on the Company's long-term debt and related debt issuance costs.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s revenues consist primarily of

• Asset Management;

• Property Management;

• Capital Markets;

• Project & Development Services;

• Environmental Remediation

Asset Management

Asset Management primarily provides comprehensive real estate asset management services to the CDS portfolio, representing a series of daily performance obligations delivered over time.

Pricing includes a cost-plus management fee or a market-rate fee form of variable consideration.

The Company earns whichever is higher.

See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions.

The amount of revenue recognized is presented gross for any services provided by our employees, as we control them.

This is evidenced by our obligation for their performance and our ability to direct and redirect their work, as well as negotiate the value of such services.

In the instances where we do not control third-party services delivered to the client, we report revenues net of the third-party reimbursements.

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.

Property Management

Property Management provides on-site day-to-day management services for owners of office, industrial, retail, multifamily residential and various other types of properties, representing a series of daily performance obligations delivered over time.

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.

Revenues from project management may also include reimbursement of payroll and related costs for personnel providing the services and subcontracted vendor costs.

Project management services represent a series of distinct daily services rendered over time.

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.

The amount of revenue recognized is presented gross for any services provided by our employees, as we control them.

This is evidenced by our obligation for their performance and our ability to direct and redirect their work, as well as negotiate the value of such services.

In the instances where we do not control third-party services delivered to the client, we report revenues net of the third-party reimbursements.

Capital Markets

We offer clients commercial mortgage and structured financing services.

We are compensated for our services via a fee paid upon successful commercial financing from third party lenders.

The fee earned is contingent upon the funding of the loan, which represents the transfer of control for services to the customer.

Therefore, we typically satisfy our performance obligation at the point in time of the funding of the loan, when there is a present right to payment.

We provide strategic advice and execution for owners, investors, and occupiers of real estate in connection with the leasing of office, industrial and retail space.

We are compensated for our services in the form of a commission.

Our commission is paid upon signing of the lease by the tenant.

We satisfy our performance obligation at a point in time;

generally, at the time of the contractual event where there is a present right to payment.

Project & Development Services

We provide project and construction management services for owners and occupiers of real estate in connection with the management and leasing of office, industrial and retail space.

The fees that we earn are typically variable based upon a percentage of project cost.

We are compensated for our services in the form management fees.

Project and construction management services represent a series of performance obligations delivered over time and revenue is recognized over time.

Environmental Remediation

We provide environmental remediation services for owners of real estate.

Remediation services are generally contracted and performed by Comstock Environmental.

We are compensated for our services as well as for the services of subcontractors used to perform remediation services.

Fees earned are generally based upon employee time spent as well as a cost-plus arrangement for subcontractors used.

Generally, environmental remediation services represent a series of performance obligations delivered over time and revenue is recognized over time.

Contract Costs

Expenses, primarily employee commissions, incurred on leasing and capital markets transactions represent substantially all our incremental costs to obtain revenue contracts.

We apply the applicable practical expedient offered by ASC Topic 606 when the amortization period is one year or less and, therefore, recognize these costs as an operating expense as they are incurred.

Stock compensation

As discussed in Note 12, the Company sponsors stock option plans and restricted stock award plans.

The Company accounts for its share-based awards pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, Share Based Payments .

ASC 718 requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements over the service period based on their fair values at the date of grant.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, total stock based compensation cost was $ 0.8 million which was charged to expenses within ‘general and administrative’ in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, total stock based compensation cost was $ 0.5 million which was charged to expenses within ‘general and administrative’ and ‘Direct costs-real estate services’ in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes .

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 a 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.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”), which removes, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements in Topic 820.

ASU 2018-13 removes the following disclosure requirements:

(i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and (ii) the entity’s valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements.

ASU 2018-13 adds the following disclosure requirements:

(i) provide information about the measurement uncertainty of Level 3 fair value measurements as of the reporting date rather than a point in the future, (ii) disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses related to Level 3 measurements for the period included in other comprehensive income, and (iii) disclose for Level 3 measurements the range and weighted average of the significant unobservable inputs and the way it is calculated.

ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.

Early adoption is permitted.

The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 prospectively as of January 1, 2020.

The adoption did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.

2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which modifies how companies recognize expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by an entity at each reporting date.

Existing GAAP requires an “incurred loss” methodology whereby companies are prohibited from recording an expected loss until it is probable that the loss has been incurred.

ASU 2016-13 requires companies to use a methodology that reflects current expected credit losses (“CECL”) and requires consideration of a broad range of reasonable and

supportable information to record and report credit loss estimates, even when the CECL is remote.

Companies will be required to record the allowance for credit losses and deduct that amount from the basis of the asset.

The guidance is effective for the Company for financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2022, although early adoption is permitted.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes.

ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, Income Tax and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application.

ASU 2019-12 will be effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those periods.

Early adoption is permitted.

We do not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have evaluated all other issued and unadopted Accounting Standards Updates and believe the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, balance sheets, or cash flows .

TRADE RECEIVABLES & TRADE RECEIVABLES – RELATED PARTIES

Trade receivables include amounts due from real estate services, asset management and project management.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $ 1.5 million and $ 1.9 million, respectively, of trade receivables.

The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical collection experience and the aging of receivables.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts was de minimis based on the Company’s historical collection experience for receivables older than 90 days along with an analysis of collections received as of the filing date.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $ 3.6 million and $ 3.6 million, respectively, of receivables from related parties.

The Company does not record an allowance for doubtful accounts related to receivables from related parties.

This is due to the related party nature of the receivables along with the collection history.

EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE VENTURES CARRIED AT FAIR VALUE

Based upon elections made at the date of investment, the Company reports the equity method investments in real estate ventures at fair value.

For such investments, the Company increases or decreases the investment each reporting period by the change in the fair value and the Company reports the fair value adjustments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the ‘loss on equity method investments carried at fair value’ line item.

Changes in fair value of the Company's investment in Investors X (defined below) are impacted by distributions as the fair value is based on finite cash flows from the wind-down of that entity.

Fair value of equity method investments are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had equity method investments in real estate ventures at fair value of $ 6.3 million and $ 8.4 million, respectively.

The table below shows the change in the Company’s investments in real estate ventures reported at fair value.

Fair value of investments as of January 1 $ 8,421 $ —

Investments — 10,506

Distributions ( 1,921 ) ( 1,525 )

Change in fair value ( 193 ) ( 560 )

Fair value of investments as of December 31 $ 6,307 $ 8,421

See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions for additional discussion of our investments in real estate ventures at fair value.

The Company has elected to account for the equity method investment in Comstock Investors X, L.C.

(“Investors X”), a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) that owns the Company’s residual homebuilding operations at fair value.

Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model based on expected future cash flows for income and realization events of the underlying asset.

Expected future cash flows includes 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.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value of the Company’s investment in Investors X is $ 5.1 million and $ 7.2 million, respectively.

The Company received distributions of $ 1.8 million and 1.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and recognized a loss in fair value of $ 0.3 million and $ 0.6 million, respectively.

Depreciation expense, included in ‘general and administrative’ in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, amounted to $ 0.2 million and $ 0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The company did not record impairments during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

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 an 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.

For the purposes of recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities associated with the Company’s leases, the Company has elected the practical expedient to not recognize a ROU 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.

ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

The rates implicit within the Company's leases are generally not determinable;

therefore, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used to determine the present value of lease payments.

The determination of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate requires judgment.

The Company looks to similar corporate credit ratings and bond yields when determining the incremental borrowing rate.

The incremental borrowing rate is determined at lease commencement, or as of January 1, 2019 for operating leases in existence upon adoption of ASC 842.

As of November 1, 2020, at the lease commencement of the new corporate office, the Company's incremental borrowing rate was determined to be 4.25 %

The Company has operating leases for its office facilities as well as for office equipment.

The Company's leases have remaining terms of less than one year to 10 years.

The leases can contain various renewal and termination options.

The period which is subject to an option to extend the lease is included in the lease term if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

The period which is subject to an option to terminate the lease is included if it is reasonably certain that the option will not be exercised.

Lease costs related to the Company's operating leases are generally recognized as a single ratable lease cost over the lease term.

See Note 14 - Related Party Transactions for rent expense paid and recognized for the corporate office to related parties.

Maturities of lease liabilities as of December 31, 2020 are as follows:

2025 and future years 6,083

Total lease payments 9,795

imputed interest 1,865

Present value of operating lease liabilities $ 7,930

The Company does no t have any lease liabilities which have not yet commenced as of December 31, 2020.

CORONAVIRUS AID RELIEF AND ECONOMIC SECURITY ACT

Paycheck Protection Plan Loan

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) was established under the 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”).

In June 2020, the Flexibility Act was signed into law, which amended the CARES Act.

The Flexibility Act changed key provisions of the PPP, including, but not limited to, (i) provisions relating to the maturity of PPP loans, (ii) the deferral period covering of PPP loan payments and (iii) the process for measurement of loan forgiveness.

More specifically, the Flexibility Act provides a minimum maturity of five years for all PPP loans made on or after the date of the enactment of the Flexibility Act (“June 5, 2020”) and permits lenders and borrowers to extend the maturity date of earlier PPP loans by mutual agreement.

As of the date of this filing, the Company has not approached the Lender to request an extension of the current maturity date from two years to five years.

The Flexibility Act also provides that if a borrower does not apply for forgiveness of a loan within 10 months after the last day of the measurement period (“covered period”), the PPP loan is no longer deferred and the borrower must begin paying principal and interest.

Therefore, the Company’s deferral period for principal and interest payments was updated from six-months according to the terms and conditions of the loan agreement to ten months.

In addition, the

Flexibility Act extended the length of the covered period from eight weeks to 24 weeks from receipt of proceeds, while allowing borrowers that received PPP loans before June 5, 2020 to determine, at their sole discretion, a covered period of either eight weeks or 24-weeks.

After reviewing the applicable terms and conditions of the Flexibility Act, the Company has elected to extend the length of the covered period from the lesser of (i) period whereby qualified expenses equal loan proceeds or (ii) 24 weeks.

The Company has performed initial calculations for the PPP loan forgiveness according to the terms and conditions of the SBA’s Loan Forgiveness Application (Revised June 16, 2020) and, based on such calculations, expects that the PPP loan will be forgiven in full.

In addition, the Company has determined that it is probable the Company will meet all the conditions of the PPP loan forgiveness.

Therefore, the Company recognized PPP funding as a contra-expense during the periods when qualified expenses were incurred.

The contra-expense recognized lowered the reimbursable costs, billed as revenue, to clients under certain contracts where the Company earns revenue from expenses incurred.

The balance and activity related to the PPP loan is as follows as of December 31, 2020.

PPP loan proceeds $ 1,954

Qualified expenses eligible for forgiveness $ ( 1,954 )

PPP loan balance $ —

The Company submitted the PPP loan forgiveness application to the lender in December 2020.

In accordance with the terms and conditions under the Flexibility Act, the lender has 60 days from receipt of the completed application to issue a decision to the SBA.

If the lender determines that the borrower is entitled to forgiveness of some or all of the amount applied for under the statute and applicable regulations, the lender must request payment from the SBA at the time the lender issues its decision to the SBA.

The Lender completed its review and submitted the Company's forgiveness application to the SBA in February 2021.

The SBA will, subject to any SBA review of the loan or loan application, remit the appropriate forgiveness amount to the lender, plus any interest accrued through the date of payment, not later than 90 days after the lender issues its decision to the SBA.

Pursuant to the Flexibility Act, the Company’s PPP loan agreement will be amended in the event that no amount or less than all of the PPP loan is forgiven.

In addition, starting in August 2021, the Company will be required to make principal and interest payments totaling $ 0.1 million per month or an adjustment amount based on the loan amendment over the remaining term of the PPP loan until such time the loan is fully settled.

The Company may prepay the PPP loan at any time without penalty and the loan agreement evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, or breaches of representations and warranties, or other provisions of the loan agreement.

The occurrence of an event of default may trigger the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, and/or the Lender filing suit and obtaining a judgment against the Company.

Deferral of Social Security Tax Payments

Pursuant to sections 2302(a)(1) and (a)(2) of the CARES Act, the Company has elected to defer payments of its share of Social Security tax due during the "payroll tax deferral period".

The payroll tax deferral period began on August 1, 2020 and ended December 31, 2020.

At December 31, 2020 the total amount of such deferral was $ 0.2 million and is reflected within 'Accrued personnel costs' on our consolidated balance sheet.

Per the terms of the deferral program, 50% of the deferred amount is due on December 31, 2021, and the remaining 50% is due on December 31, 2022 at 0% interest.

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 discussion of the Company's operating lease commitments.

Currently, and from time to time, the Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business.

In accordance with GAAP, the Company records a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

While it is possible that an unfavorable outcome may occur as a result of one or more of the Company’s current litigation matters, at this time management has concluded that the resolutions of these matters are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, future results of operations or liquidity.

Legal defense costs are expensed as incurred.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

We measure certain assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

In addition, it establishes a framework for measuring fair value according to the following three-tier fair value hierarchy:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible as of the measurement date;

• Level 2 - Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly;

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values based on their short maturities.

The fair value of fixed and floating rate debt is based on unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

The fair value of the fixed and floating rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis on the blended borrower rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms.

The following table summarizes the fair value of fixed and floating rate debt and the corresponding carrying value of fixed and floating rate debt as of:

2020 December 31,

Carrying amount $ 5,505 $ 6,995

Fair value $ 5,485 $ 6,820

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instruments.

These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore, cannot be determined with precision.

Changes in assumptions, such as an acceleration of amounts due and payable, could significantly affect the estimates.

Investments in Real Estate Ventures at Fair Value

We report our two investments in real estate ventures at fair value.

For such investments, we increase or decrease our investment each reporting period by the change in the fair value and we report these fair value adjustments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Please see note 4 - Equity method Investments in real estate ventures carried at fair value for additional information.

For our investments in real estate ventures at fair value, we estimate the fair value using the level 3 Income Approach or a sales comparable approach to determine a fair value.

Critical inputs to fair value estimates include various level 3 inputs such as valuations of the underlying real estate assets and borrowings, which incorporate investment-specific assumptions such as discount rates, capitalization rates, rental and expense growth rates, and asset-specific market borrowing rates.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, investments in the real estate ventures at fair value was approximately $ 6.3 million and $ 8.4 million, respectively.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

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 to determine if impairment has occurred.

Such fair value measurements use significant unobservable inputs and are classified as Level 3.

STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of Class A common stock and Class B common stock.

As of December 31, 2020, we are authorized to issue 59,780 thousand shares of Class A common stock and 220 thousand shares of Class B common stock, each with a par value of $ 0.01 per share.

As of December 31, 2020, we have not declared any dividends.

The holder of each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote, while the holder of each share of Class B common stock is entitled to fifteen votes.

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.

Stock-based Compensation Plans

On December 14, 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Long-Term Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”).

On February 12, 2019 the Company approved the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) which replaced the 2004 Plan.

The 2019 Plan provides for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or SARs, restricted stock, deferred stock, dividend equivalents, bonus stock and awards in lieu of cash compensation, other stock-based awards and performance awards.

Any shares issued under the Plan typically vest over periods of four years .

Stock options issued under the plan expire 10 years from the date they are granted.

The 2019 Plan authorized 2.5 million shares of our Class A Common Stock subject to adjustment for forfeitures and tax withholding.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 2.1 million shares available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.

The fair value of each option award is calculated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and certain subjective assumptions.

Expected volatilities are calculated based on our historical trading activities.

We recognize forfeitures as they occur.

The risk-free rate for the periods is based on the U.S.

Treasury rates in effect at the time of grant.

The expected term of options is based on the Company’s historical experience.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of options during 2019.

There were no options granted in 2020.

CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated Real Estate Inventories in assets of discontinued operations

Included within the Company’s net loss from discontinued operations, net of tax are the activities of real estate entities that were determined to be VIEs.

These entities have been established to own and operate real estate property and were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entities to finance their activities without additional financial support.

Prior to July 23, 2019 the Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as a result of the Company’s majority voting rights and complete operational control of these entities.

Prior to April 30, 2019, the Company evaluated Investors X and determined that the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support and the Company was the primary beneficiary of the VIE as a result of its complete operational control of the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits.

As a result of the April 30, 2019 Master Transfer Agreement ("MTA") entered into between the Company and CDS, the Company determined that Investors X is considered held for sale effective April 30, 2019 and Investors X activities were reclassified to discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

On July 23, 2019, the Investors X operating agreement was amended to clarify certain definitions resulting in the Company no longer being the primary beneficiary of Investors X.

Therefore, the assets and liabilities of Investors X were deconsolidated effective July 23, 2019 in the Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Company.

The 2019 AMA will terminate on December 31, 2027 (“Initial Term”), an extension from the original termination date of December 31, 2022, and will automatically renew for successive additional one year terms (each an “Extension Term”) unless CDS delivers written notice of non-renewal of the 2190 AMA at least 180 days prior to the termination date of the Initial Term or any Extension Term.

Twenty-four months after the effective date of the 2019 AMA, CDS is entitled to terminate the 2019 AMA without cause upon 180 days advance written notice 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, CDS 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 CDS 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 CDS 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 are each for one year initial terms with successive, automatic one year renewal terms, unless sooner terminated.

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 CDS 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 $ 937.5 thousand, payable in fifteen quarterly installments of $ 62.5 thousand each.

The Hartford Investment

On December 30, 2019 the Company made an investment related to the purchase of the Hartford, a stabilized commercial office building located at 3101 Wilson Boulevard in the Clarendon area of Arlington County, Virginia.

The Company’s maximum amount of investment related to the purchase of the Hartford is $ 1.2 million.

In conjunction with the 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.

At the closing of the acquisition of the Hartford, the Company received an acquisition fee of $ 500 thousand 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.

On February 7, 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.

The Company’s ownership interest in the Hartford remains at 2.5 %.

Private Placements and Promissory Notes

Under the terms of the Loan Documents, the Revolver provides for an initial variable interest rate of the WSJ Prime Rate plus 1.00 % per annum on advances made under the Revolver, 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 CDS.

On March 27, 2020 the Company borrowed $ 5.5 million under the Revolver.

On April 10, 2020, the capital provided to the Company by the Revolver was utilized to retire all of the Company’s 10 % corporate indebtedness maturing in 2020 owed to CGF.

See Note 8 - Debt for further description of the CGF Private Placement and the Revolver.

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.

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 cumulative loss incurred by the Company over the three-year period ended December 31, 2020 constitutes a significant piece of objective negative evidence.

Such objective negative evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future profitability and growth.

Based on this evaluation, as of December 31, 2020, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets as their realization did not meet the more-likely-than-not criterion.

The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be adjusted in the future if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for future profitability and growth.

With a full valuation allowance, any change in the deferred tax asset or liability is fully offset by a corresponding change in the valuation allowance.

The Company currently has approximately $ 146 million in Net Operating Losses (“NOLs), which is based on current statutory tax rates, including the lower corporate tax rate enacted by the Tax Act.

If unused, these NOLs 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.

We estimate that as of December 31, 2020, 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, 2020, because the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on substantially all of its net deferred tax assets.

The Company’s ability to use its NOLs (and in certain circumstances, future built-in losses and depreciation deductions) can be negatively affected if there is an “ownership change” as defined under Section 382.

In general, an ownership change occurs whenever there is a shift in ownership by more than 50 percentage points by one or more 5 % stockholders over a specified time period (generally three years).

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, Comstock adopted a Section 382 rights agreement, which expired in May 2014.

In June 2015, at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved a new Internal Revenue Code Section 382 Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”) to protect stockholder value.

The Rights Agreement expires on March 27, 2025.

The Rights Agreement was adopted to reduce the likelihood of such an unintended “ownership change”, thus preserving the value of these tax benefits.

Similar plans have been adopted by a number of companies holding similar significant tax assets over the past several years.

The Company has no t recorded any accruals related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations.

The 2017 through 2019 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities.

The income tax provision for continuing operations consists of the following as of December 31:

Federal $ ( 143 ) $ 178

State ( 26 ) 32

Valuation allowance 194 ( 208 )

Total income tax expense $ 25 $ 2
