SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Caliber (Nasdaq CWD), a diversified real estate and digital asset management platform, today announced that an institutional investor elected to convert approximately $15.9 million of perpetual convertible preferred equity into shares of the Company's common stock.

Under the original investment, Caliber issued 15,868 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1,000 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $15,868,000. The holder has exercised its conversion right at a price of $250 per share, resulting in the issuance of 63,472 shares of common stock.

The preferred equity carried no dividend and was perpetual in nature.

The transaction removes approximately $15.9 million of preferred equity from the Company's capital structure and replaces it with common equity. As a result, the conversion reduces the amount of capital senior to the Company's common stock and streamlines the Company's capital structure.

A summary of the Company's capitalization before and after the conversion is set forth below.
