How will this work for you?

We have created a mathematical calculation based on our current assumptions about the project's completion and operations. We estimate that net cash flow for the Circular portfolio will grow from approximately ($1,357,994) in year 1 to $19,540,288 in year 6 at anticipated capital event for Livingston Farm, and finally $3,862,289 in year 10, when we anticipate a capital event for both Wren of the Woods and 5 Borough Fungi. Cash flow and profits from liquidation are expected to net a total of $21,644,775 over the 10 year period. Our calculation shows that a $50,000 investment might return $229,989 over that period.

Some of our assumptions will prove to be inaccurate, possibly for the reasons described in Risks of Investing. Therefore, the results of investing illustrated in our calculation are likely to differ in reality, for better or for worse, possibly by a large amount.

About the offering

The Company is engaged in two simultaneous offerings of its securities: An offering under §4(a)(6) of the Securities Act of 1933, which we refer to as the “Reg CF Offering” and an offering under 17 CFR §230.506(c), which we refer to as the “Reg D Offering”.

We are using the money from the two offerings for the same purposes and we are offering the same security in both offerings. When we refer to “the offering” on this page we mean the Reg D Offering, unless indicated otherwise.

Because money is fungible, we don’t care whether the money comes from the Reg CF Offering or the Reg D Offering. Thus the Reg D Offering itself has no “minimum” amount. However, we will not close on the Reg D Offering until either:

  • The Reg CF Offering has reached the target amount of $25,000; or
  • The amount raised in the Reg D Offering by itself is equal to at least the target amount of $25,000.

We will stop raising when either:

  • We have raised at least the target amount of $25,000 in the Reg CF Offering and the total amount we have raised in the Reg CF offering plus the amount we have raised in the Reg D Offering equals our maximum of $5,000,000; or
  • We have not raised the target amount in the Reg CF Offering but have raised the maximum amount in the Reg D Offering.
