This prospectus supplement (“Supplement”) is part of and should be read in conjunction with the prospectus of Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc., dated September 5, 2019 (the “Prospectus”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Supplement shall have the same meanings as in the Prospectus.
The purpose of this Supplement is to disclose:
the transaction price and offering price for each class of our common stock for subscriptions to be accepted as of October 1, 2019;
the calculation of our August 31, 2019 net asset value (“NAV”) per share, as determined in accordance with our valuation procedures, for each of our share classes; and
updated experts information.
OCTOBER 1, 2019 TRANSACTION PRICE
The transaction price for each share class of our common stock for subscriptions to be accepted as of October 1, 2019 (and distribution reinvestment plan issuances following the close of business on September 30, 2019 and share redemptions as of September 30, 2019) is as follows:

The transaction price for each of our share classes is equal to such class’s NAV per share as of August 31, 2019. A calculation of the NAV per share is set forth in the section of this Supplement titled “August 31, 2019 NAV Per Share.” The offering price of our common stock for each share class equals the transaction price of such class, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees.
AUGUST 31, 2019 NAV PER SHARE
Our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures, as amended from time to time, that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. Our most recent NAV per share for each share class, which is updated as of the last calendar day of each month, is posted on our website at www.blackcreekindustrialiv.com and is also available on our toll-free, automated telephone line at (888) 310-9352. See the “Net Asset Value Calculation and Valuation Procedures” section of the Prospectus for a more detailed description of our valuation procedures, including important disclosure regarding real property valuations provided by Altus Group U.S. Inc. (the “Independent Valuation Firm”). All parties engaged by us in the calculation of our NAV, including the Advisor, are subject to the oversight of our board of directors. Generally, all of our real properties are appraised once each calendar year by third party appraisal firms in accordance with our valuation procedures and such appraisals are reviewed by the Independent Valuation Firm.
As used below, “Fund Interests” means our outstanding shares of common stock, along with the partnership units in our operating partnership (“OP Units”) held directly or indirectly by the Sponsor, and “Aggregate Fund NAV” means the NAV of all of the Fund Interests.

Under GAAP, we record liabilities for ongoing distribution fees that (i) we currently owe under the terms of the dealer manager agreement and (ii) we estimate we may pay to the Dealer Manager in future periods for shares of our common stock. As of August 31, 2019, we estimated approximately $15.0 million of ongoing distribution fees were potentially payable to the Dealer Manager. We intend for our NAV to reflect our estimated value on the date that we determine our NAV. As such, we do not deduct the liability for estimated future distribution fees in our calculation of NAV that may become payable after the date as of which our NAV is calculated.
The valuation for our real properties as of August 31, 2019 was provided by the Independent Valuation Firm in accordance with our valuation procedures and determined by starting with the acquisition price of our real properties, which was adjusted based on subsequent events and assumptions used by the Independent Valuation Firm. Certain key assumptions that were used by the Independent Valuation Firm in the discounted cash flow analysis are set forth in the following table:
 
 
Weighted-Average
Basis
Exit capitalization rate
 
5.5
%
Discount rate / internal rate of return
 
6.5
%
Holding period of real properties (years)
 
10.0

A change in the rates used would impact the calculation of the value of our real properties. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, the hypothetical changes listed below would result in the following effects on the value of our real properties:

The valuation of our debt obligations as of August 31, 2019 was calculated in accordance with fair value standards under GAAP. The key assumption used in the discounted cash flow analysis was the market interest rate. Market interest rates relating to the underlying debt obligations are based on unobservable Level 3 inputs, which we have determined to be our best estimate

S-2


of current market interest rates of similar instruments. The weighted-average market interest rate used in the August 31, 2019 valuation was 3.38%.
A change in the market interest rates used could impact the calculation of the fair value of our debt obligations. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, a decrease in the weighted-average market interest rate of 25 basis points would increase the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.22%. Alternatively, assuming all other factors remain constant, an increase in the weighted-average market interest rate of 25 basis points would decrease the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.92%.
