Invest in a next-generation membership club

A combination hospitality & real estate concept, this investment opportunity has been structured to target startup-style returns. 

• Revenue
  Unlike regular startups which generate revenue many years after their initial investment, ArkHAUS has already begun to generate revenue in the form of membership deposits in Year 0 (pre-launch).
• Multiple
  Investment banking analysts target a mid to high teens (EV/EBITDA) multiple for the hospitality sector. A detailed examination of analyst reports provides an average 16.4X multiple for a matured membership club business.
• Exit
  Targeting a 5 year exit to Private Equity or IPO, our goal is to maintain operational excellence while maximizing investor value.
• Current vs. future investment rounds
  This investment is into the ArkHAUS parent company and will benefit from all future ArkHAUS locations as well. Future rounds of investment will be made into, and benefit only from, individual ArkHAUS locations. In addition, investors in this round will be provided with first access to future investments.

A lifestyle club
for the world's disruptors

Positioned to redefine the members club of yesteryear, ArkHAUS connects 4 futuristic solar-electric houseboats to anchor an exciting new vision where community, innovation, and fun collide. 

Members can meet, relax or entertain from the modular floating villa, complete with outdoor decks & rooftop lounges overlooking a protected pool in the center.

ArkHAUS is brought to you by the team behind CSTM HAUS.

A recipe for launch success

Following a successful 6 month pop-up at the world renowned Faena Hotel's Bazaar rooftop, CSTM HAUS Miami served to assess, ideate, and develop the evolution of the membership club: ArkHAUS.

Membership applications
exceed expectations

The rate of presale memberships is outpacing projections, demonstrating the tremendous market demand for a new type of members club.

Word of mouth sold over half of Tier 1 Annual Memberships before the release of any primary marketing materials. Having now layered on a minimal marketing budget, we are witnessing a customer acquisition cost (CAC) that is already 58% lower than initial projections and continuing to decline.

Annual memberships

Prior to opening, interested members can file an application with a refundable deposit, available in 3 Tiers:

• Tier 1 |   80 available | $5,000   [FILLED]
• Tier 2 |   90 available | $6,250   [ACTIVE] 
• Tier 3 | 180 available | $7,500

ArkHAUS has already closed Tier 1 of memberships and is now accepting applications for Tier 2.

NFT forever memberships

The club of the future isn't complete without the membership type of the future. ArkHAUS is offering a very limited 10 "Forever Memberships" via NFT sales.

You can learn more about the Forever Membership NFTs here.

Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)

An initially budgeted $400k for marketing provided a CAC of $1,111 for 360 memberships. However, an early social media advertising test has demonstrated an actual CAC of  $472, 58% lower than initial projections.
The growing market awareness, applicant excitement, and a larger and more refined advertising budget will combine to drive the CAC even further down.

Limited.
Exclusive.
Powerful.

With only 360 memberships made available for presale, access will be limited to members and their guests, drawing on 30 hrs per month.

Membership demographics

By design, our application process allows us to handpick a curated membership base. Every application is followed by a 1:1 conversation to assess the demographic mix, according to the following targets:

Explosive economics
with room to grow

With highly attractive economics at the single location level, this investment into the ArkHAUS Inc. parent captures all future locations, creating a multiplier effect.

Revenue is primarily driven by a combination of memberships and guest passes, followed by food & beverage sales.

With capacity limited by the US Coast Guard and safety regulations, ArkHAUS has a set number of "Use Hours" available for members and guests. Selling only a conservative 360 memberships and expecting an average of 2 guests per member, ArkHAUS anticipates operating at 50% Capacity usage in year 1.

After monitoring safety and experience at 50%, as well as alternative revenue opportunities during year 1, the club can opt to sell a greater number of memberships or allow more guests in order to approach 75% or 100% Capacity Usage scenarios.

With food & beverage sales as the second source of revenue, Other Income will also be generated in the form of cabana rentals, event bookings, charters, and activity rentals.

Market clarity
from the market leader

While many competitors in the private members club market prove consumer demand, Soho House reigns supreme in the space. In July 2021, Soho House’s parent company, Membership Collective Group (ticker: MCG) IPO’d, providing vast information to analyze ArkHAUS’ market potential.

Analysis of 5 Investment Bank research reports (Bank of America, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Loop Capital Markets, HSBC) results in an average EV/EBITDA multiple target of 16.4x for year-end 2023. 

We then apply this multiple to ArkHAUS 2023 projected financials to obtain a projected valuation. 

*All numbers in the above table are in millions.

* The average EV/EBITDA multiple for membership clubs across 5 IB research reports is 16.4x
* In projecting a future value for a single ArkHAUS club, we apply a very conservative 12.0x multiple
* In projecting a future value for 7 global ArkHAUS clubs, we apply the 16.4x multiple
* For the global 7 club future valuation, our EBITDA would likely be higher due to economies of scale, resulting in a higher Equity Value than shown here.

Note: Investment in this round is at a $15M valuation. The above analysis indicates a single Miami ArkHAUS location will be valued at $106M. With 6 additional locations opened, ArkHAUS will be valued at $1.023B.

The vast landscape of
Miami members' clubs demonstrates demand

None have evolved past the traditional land-based club

Miami Competitors
Soho Beach House | The Bath Club | Faena Rose | 1 Beach Club
Fisher Island Club | The Edition Club| The Standard Spa

While competitors such as Soho Beach House, Fisher Island Club, and Bath Club are all based on land, ArkHAUS is securing its market position as the next generation-floating members club. 

Miami and many other cities with a tremendous boating and aquatic culture present a great opportunity for a differentiated marine-based club. However,  as yachts and boats do not create a suitable environment for this, no other membership club has been able to expand into this space. 

The new luxury: finding meaningful connections
in innovative places

In partnership with the designers and manufacturers of the vessels, ArkHAUS is redefining the concept of the membership club, both in terms of the venue as well as the experience.

• Anchored in smart design
  Outfitted with electric engines, solar rooftops, and spuds that elevate the entire platform out of water,  the modular club is built on four Arkup 40' vessels; a state of the art mansion on water meets the next generation of Transformers.
• What we stand for 
  We're building membership club that breaks the mold. A club for the world's disruptors, innovators and those who care about moving the world forward. In a nutshell, we're creating a community of good work by day, good people by night.

How CSTM HAUS paved the way for ArkHAUS

Founded in early 2020, CSTM HAUS is a multi­-faceted hospitality business offering a hybrid coworking & lifestyle membership as well as an event space from a single flexible venue.

Following the NYC location in the Meatpacking District's famed "Little Flatiron Building", CSTM HAUS set out to get its feet wet in Miami with a pop-up atop the Faena Hotel's Bazaar Rooftop. The breathtaking views soon became the backdrop for a new kind of membership club: a bright, inspiring space that cultivated a healthy blend of powerhouse networking by day with vibrant fun by night. Events such as the fast-growing #NFTuesdays series gained substantial notoriety, leading to sponsorship from Stella Artois and Diplomático Rum.

A resourceful team executes under pressure
—

When COVID hit, the team sprang into action. Within 2 weeks of shutting down normal startup operations, CSTM HAUS was on its way to becoming the largest maker of face shields for the City of New York and its hospital system. 

Despite the largest supply chain disruption since WWII (and never having never made a single face shield before) the team built a global supply chain of materials in 2 weeks, and designed a best-practice product that would become the standard across the remaining NYC suppliers. Over the next 5 months, CSTM HAUS hired and employed 90 local workers, purchased enough elastic to wrap around the island of Manhattan 14 times, cut through 340 TONS of plastic, turned the Meatpacking District's sexiest corner into a shipping depot, and hand-manufactured 1.7 million face shields.

Upon completion, CSTM HAUS had fulfilled a total of 4 orders for the City of New York, representing 36% of all face shields supplied to NYC front-line responders. Our HAUS Pup Chili was featured in the New York Times. It was the most fulfilling thing we've done in our lifetime. And with ArkHAUS, we're going to do even more.
