The company has applied to up list to the NYSE American in 2022 and to the NASDAQ Global Market Select in 2020. When our stock meets the listing requirements, it’s our ambition to list on one or both of these exchanges.
While our story is simple to understand, it’s actually quite a challenging one to spot or stick with.
We’re not in the tech or healthcare sectors. Those secular bull markets are dominating mainstream media coverage, and for a good reason. Ours is just less favored right now.
Greenbriar’s market value is below 50 million dollars and therefore we’re quoted on less efficient markets without much analyst coverage. Efficiency on small cap markets also have decreased in the past few years due to the rise in popularity of passive investing in index funds and trackers.
The actual market value of our Sage Ranch land is significantly higher than its recorded value on our balance sheet. We bought the Sage Ranch land for 1.04 million USD more than a decade ago and invested 10 million in the project to date. However, IFRS accounting rules require us to record that asset at its cost basis of 11 million which is significantly lower than the actual market value of the land.
The Sage Ranch land located in Tehachapi that we fully own (138 acres in a residential and incorporated central area) is our biggest tangible asset.
As of August 16, 2021 , the Sage Ranch land is fully entitled for the development of 995 houses. We are now in the process of obtaining construction permits for the first development phase.

Sage Ranch FAQ
The Tehachapi Valley has a population of 38,000 residents. The incorporated city of Tehachapi accounts for 12,000 of them and Sage Ranch is a part of the incorporation.
The other 26,000 residents of the Tehachapi Valley live in Community Services Districts (CSDs) like Golden Hills, Cummings Valley, Bear Valley Springs, Stallion Springs, Mountain Meadows and Sand Canyon. These CSDs are unincorporated Kern County land which means they have no dedicated city services and have to rely on the county’s services instead of having their own.
As of April 15, 2024, the mortgage rate in California is 7.12% for a 30-year fixed mortgage.
Sage Ranch is located in an USDA approved overlay. This is not the case a few miles away from the project. Being in the USDA overlay is advantageous for our project and means Sage Ranch home buyers can apply for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) 502D Direct Loan program which offers significantly lower mortgage rates to eligible buyers.
As of March 8, 2024, the USDA loan limit for Kern County is USD 460,000. The usual amortization period is 38 years, with a zero-down payment. Interest rates are about 4% with potential subsidies able to lower that down to 2 to 2.5%.
