Report: Equity Distribution

How post-tax project profit is distributed to equity partners and the developer in waterfall order.

Equity Distribution shows how returned capital and post-tax profit are distributed across equity partners and the developer.

All figures are post-funding and post-tax.

Opening Position

  • Profit to Distribute: post-tax project profit available for distribution, carried from the Profit & Loss report

  • Capital Returned (all parties): total equity capital returned across every source

Capital Returned is the return of a partner's original capital. Profit Share is their return on it. Total Received combines the two.


Equity Partner Blocks

Each preferred equity partner has its own block.

  • Capital Returned: the partner's original capital, returned in full

  • Return: each agreed return structure on its own line, with the terms shown as a badge, for example 12% of Profit or 5% p.a. x 2.00 yrs

  • Profit Share: total profit payable to the partner, combining every return line

  • Total Received: Capital Returned plus Profit Share

  • Return Metrics: Equity Multiple, ROI and IRR

Return structures are configured per source in the Funding section.


Developer

The developer block sits last and receives the residual once all preferred equity obligations are satisfied.

  • Capital Returned: developer capital, returned in full

  • Developer Profit: the residual profit remaining after preferred returns

  • Total Received: Capital Returned plus Developer Profit

  • Return Metrics: Equity Multiple, ROI and IRR


Reconciliation

Confirms every dollar is accounted for.

Capital Contributed (all parties) plus Profit to Distribute gives the Distributable Pool. Capital Returned and Profit Distributed are then deducted.

A Balance of $0 confirms distributions reconcile to capital contributed plus profit to distribute.
