Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
In the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024, Caliber Holdings LLC Retirement Savings Plan covered 38,090 participants and held $862M in net assets. The plan is a 401(k) plan sponsored by Wand Newco 3, Inc. of Lewisville, Texas.
Net assets came to $22,638 per participant, well below the $62,774 median for defined contribution plans with 25,000 or more participants and well below the $40,686 median for defined contribution plans in other services. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
The employer contributed $46.6M during the year, or $1,490 per active participant against a same-size median of $2,417; participants contributed $125M and $8.5M arrived as rollovers and other contributions. Benefits paid out totalled $100M.
Schedule C lists 4 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $1.3M: $34.77 per participant, close to the same-size median of $36.41. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $1.3M. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $382M in 2019 to $862M in 2024 (up 126%), and participants from 23,447 to 38,090 (up 62%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified), from an audit whose scope was limited under ERISA section 103(a)(3)(C) to exclude investment information certified by a bank or insurer.

Questions and answers
How big is Caliber Holdings LLC Retirement Savings Plan?
38,090 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024, of whom 31,299 were active employees, with net assets of $862,294,419. Among defined contribution plans that places it in the 25,000 or more participants band, which held 608 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Wand Newco 3, Inc. contribute per participant?
The filing reports $46,630,751 in employer contributions for the year, which is $1,490 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $2,417 in plan year 2024. Form 5500 reports the total only. It does not state the match formula, and the per-participant figure is an average, not any one person's contribution.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $1,324,270 in compensation to service provider organisations, $34.77 per participant or 0.15% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $36.41 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $1,324,270. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is Wand Newco 3, Inc.. Recordkeeping or administration: Transamerica Retirement Solutions and Empower Annuity Ins Co. of America. Investment advisory or management: Transamerica Retirement Solutions. The financial statements were audited by Crowe LLP. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion from a limited-scope audit, in which the accountant did not audit investment information certified by a bank or insurance company. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2024 to 31 Dec 2024, received by the Department of Labor on 14 Oct 2025. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
