EquityMultiple Delivers Self-Directed Investors Attractive Returns During a Volatile Year

NEW YORK, Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EquityMultiple, a New York-based wealthtech and real estate investing startup, today announced a series of exciting growth milestones:

• EquityMultiple was recognized as one of the 5,000 fastest growing companies in the country for 2021 by Inc. magazine, the second consecutive year the company received this honor.
• EquityMultiple's revenue grew 286% from 2018 to 2021 on an annual basis.
• EquityMultiple's distributions to investors grew at over 100% year-over-year in 2021, and the firm is pacing to roughly double distributions to investors again in 2022.

"Building investor wealth is our fundamental reason for existing," said CEO and Co-Founder Charles Clinton. "We are very excited to continue on our trajectory of roughly doubling our distributions to investors every year."

The firm also announced compelling realized returns over its recent operating history, even as capital markets and the stock market have endured periods of volatility:

• For all investments originated and exited since the start of the pandemic (March 2020 through June 2022) EquityMultiple's aggregate net return to investors was a 30% IRR
• For all investments exited in 2022, the net return to investors from EquityMultiple's realized investments is a 27.5% net IRR*.

These positive results come amid volatility in public markets; the S&P 500 lost nearly 20% of its value in the first half of 2022. Remarked Clinton, "private-market real estate brings both critical diversification and risk-adjusted return potential that's historically less correlated with publicly traded assets. We're proud to bring greater access to these types of CRE assets, which were generally unavailable to self-directed individual investors even just a few years ago. The results speak for themselves."

EquityMultiple has more than doubled its full-time workforce since the beginning of 2021, with key hires made in Asset Management, Investor Relations, and Originations. At the same time, the wealth generation products offered by the firm have grown and diversified. Since August of '21, EquityMultiple has offered short-term notes — an alternative to savings product — to supplement the firm's diverse array of professionally managed commercial real estate investments. These short-term note products target attractive current yield and short terms to give investors a new means of managing cash. To date, EquityMultiple's note products have generated over $80M in investment interest.

EquityMultiple is a commercial real estate investment and technology firm whose mission is to build investor wealth through streamlined access to diverse real estate investment products. To date, EquityMultiple's investors have participated in over $4 billion in commercial real estate transactions through its online investing platform. The firm pairs innovative technology with real estate experience and industry-leading investor services to offer an unparalleled investing experience.
