1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for interim statements and, therefore, do not include all information and disclosures necessary for fair presentation of results of operations, financial position, and changes in cash flow in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, such statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the period presented.

The unaudited financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2011 audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2011. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Nature of Business

American Church Mortgage Company, a Minnesota corporation, was incorporated on May 27, 1994. The Company was organized to engage primarily in the business of making mortgage loans to churches and other nonprofit religious organizations throughout the United States, on terms established for individual organizations.

Accounting Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most sensitive estimates relate to the realizability of the mortgage loans receivable, the valuation of the bond portfolio and real estate held for sale. It is at least reasonably possible that these estimates could change in the near term and that the effect of the change, if any, may be material to the financial statements.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's loans have been granted to churches and other non-profit religious organizations. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent on member contributions and the involvement in the church or organization of its senior pastor.

Cash and Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company maintains accounts primarily at two financial institutions. At times throughout the year, the Company’s cash and equivalents balances may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Cash in money market funds is not federally insured. The Company had approximately $387,000 and $0 in money market fund accounts at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Bond Portfolio

The Company accounts for the bond portfolio under the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 320 Investments-Debt and Equity Securities. The Company classifies the bond portfolio as “available-for-sale” and measures the portfolio at fair value. While the bonds are generally held until contractual maturity, the Company classifies them as available-for-sale as the bonds may be used to repay secured investor certificates or provide additional liquidity or working capital in the short term. The Company has classified $1,028,000 and $873,000 in bonds as current assets as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, based on management’s estimates for liquidity requirements and contractual maturities of certain bonds maturing in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Allowance for Mortgage Loans Receivable

The Company records mortgage loans receivable at estimated net realizable value, which is the unpaid principal balances of the mortgage loans receivable, less the allowance for mortgage loans. The Company’s loan loss policy provides an allowance for estimated uncollectible loans based on an evaluation of the current status of the loan portfolio. This policy reserves for principal amounts outstanding on a particular loan if cumulative interruptions occur in the normal payment schedule of a loan; therefore, the Company recognizes a provision for losses and an allowance for the outstanding principal amount of a loan in the Company’s portfolio if the amount is in doubt of collection. Additionally, no additional interest income is recognized on impaired loans that are declared to be in default and are in the foreclosure process. At June 30, 2012, the Company reserved $788,479 for thirteen mortgage loans, of which six are three or more mortgage payments in arrears. At December 31, 2011, the Company reserved $812,809 for fifteen mortgage loans, of which eight were three or more mortgage payments in arrears. One of the loans was in the foreclosure process.

June 30, 2012

A summary of transactions in the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended June30, 2012 is as follows:

The total impaired loans, which are loans that are in the foreclosure process or are declared to be in default, were approximately $944,000 and $1,563,000 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which the Company believes are adequately secured by the underlying collateral and the allowance for mortgage loans. These loans are currently recorded on a non-accrual basis.

The Company recently established a formal policy in which it will declare a loan to be in default whereupon the loan will be placed on non-accrual status when the following thresholds have been met: (i) The borrower has missed three consecutive mortgage payments; (ii) The borrower has not communicated to the Company any legitimate reason for delinquency in its payments to the Company and has not arranged for the re-continuance of payments; (iii) Lines of communication to the borrower have broken down such that any reasonable prospect of rehabilitating the loan and return of regular payments is gone.

The Company recently established a policy in which it will accept payments received on non-accrual loans as well as a policy for resuming accrual of interest on loans that have been placed on non-accrual status. These policies are as follows: (i) The Company will accept payments on loans that are currently on non-accrual status when a borrower has communicated to us that they intend to meet their mortgage obligations. A payment made on a non-accrual loan is considered a good faith deposit as to the intent to resume their mortgage payment obligation. This good faith deposit is credited back to interest first then principal as stated in the mortgage loan documentation. (ii) A letter outlining the re-payment terms or the restructure terms (if any) of the loan is provided to the borrower. This letter will be signed by the Senior Pastor and all board members of the borrower. This letter resumes the obligation to make payments on non-accrual loans. (iii) The borrower must meet all its payment obligations for the next 120 days without interruption in order to be removed from non-accrual status.

The Company recently established the following policy for determining when an uncollectable loan or trade receivable is charged off. When a loan is declared in default by its policy or deemed to be doubtful of collection, the loan committee of the Advisor to the Company will direct the staff to charge-off the uncollectable receivables.

Loans totaling approximately $2,016,000 and $3,137,000 exceeded 90 days past due but continued to accrue interest as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company believes that continued interest accruals are appropriate because the loans are well secured, not deemed to be in default and the Company is actively pursuing collection of past due payments.

Real Estate Held for Sale

The Company records real estate held for sale at the estimated fair value, which is net of the expected expenses related to the sale of the real estate. The Company maintains continuous efforts to dispose of real estate held for sale at market terms, including purchase price and financing terms. The Company may allow for temporary occupancy of real estate held for sale. Revenues, including temporary rental payments, and expenses, such as taxes and insurance, arising from real estate held for sale are recorded on the Statement of Operations in the current period.

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of the estimated useful life.

Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset compared to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An allowance for losses is recognized when the carrying amount is deemed not recoverable and exceeds fair value as determined through various valuation techniques including, but not limited to, discounted cash flow models, quoted market values, and third party independent appraisals.

Revenue Recognition

Interest income on mortgage loans receivable and the bond portfolio is recognized as earned. Other income included with interest represents cash received for loan origination fees, which are recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to the yield on the loan.

Deferred Financing Costs

The Company defers the costs related to obtaining financing, principally through the issuance of Secured Investor Certificates. These costs are amortized over the life of the financing using the straight line method, which approximates the effective interest method.

Income Per Common Share

No adjustments were made to income for the purpose of calculating earnings per share, as there were no potential dilutive shares outstanding.

2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value in our balance sheets. The fair value of these instruments is based on valuations that include inputs that can be classified within one of the three levels of a hierarchy. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

Except for the bond portfolio, which is required by authoritative accounting guidance to be recorded at fair value on our Balance Sheets, the Company elected not to record any other financial assets or liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. We recorded additional provisions for losses on our St. Agnes and Agape bonds (Note 3), which totaled $500,000 and $100,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively. Total allowance for losses on our bond portfolio equaled $1,500,000 and $1,000,000 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

We determine the fair value of the bond portfolio shown in the table above by comparing it with similar instruments in inactive markets. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the bonds, which are callable at par by the issuer at any time, and the anticipated cash flows of the bonds, and uses observable and unobservable market-based inputs. Unobservable inputs include our internal credit rating and selection of similar bonds for valuation.

The change in Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis is summarized as follows:

June 30, 2012

Real estate held for sale and impaired loans are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The fair value of real estate held for sale was based upon the listed sales price less expected selling costs, which is a Level 2 input. There were no provisions for losses on real estate held for sale for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The fair value of impaired loans was based upon the Company’s loan loss policy, which is Level 3 input. The Company reserved an additional provision of $210,226 and $86,944 for loan losses at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

3. MORTGAGE LOANS RECEIVABLE AND BOND PORTFOLIO

At June 30, 2012, the Company had mortgage loans receivable totaling $28,991,234. The loans bear interest ranging from 1.00% to 10.25% with a weighted average of approximately 8.55% at June 30, 2012. The Company had mortgage loans receivable totaling $29,870,023 that bore interest ranging from 1.00% to 10.25% with a weighted average of approximately 8.40% at December 31, 2011.

The Company has a portfolio of secured church bonds at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, which are carried at fair value. The bonds pay either semi-annual or quarterly interest ranging from 5.25% to 10.40%. The aggregate value of secured church bonds equaled approximately $10,948,000 at June 30, 2012 with a weighted average interest rate of 7.92% and approximately $10,997,000 at December 31, 2011 with a weighted average interest rate of 7.92%. These bonds are due at various maturity dates through July 2039.

The contractual maturity schedule for mortgage loans receivable and the bond portfolio as of June 30, 2012, is as follows:

The Company currently owns $2,035,000 First Mortgage Bonds issued by St. Agnes Missionary Baptist Church located in Houston, Texas. The total principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds issued by St. Agnes is $13,375,000. St. Agnes defaulted on its payment obligations to bondholders in June 2007. The church subsequently commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization proceeding regarding the three properties that secure the First Mortgage Bonds in November 2007, which was dismissed in September 2008, and the church was subsequently foreclosed upon. The Company, along with all other bondholders, has a superior lien over all other creditors. No accrual for interest receivable from the First Mortgage Bonds is recorded by the Company. The Company has an aggregate allowance for losses of $1,300,000 for the First Mortgage Bonds at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which effectively reduces the bonds to the fair value amount

AMERICAN CHURCH MORTGAGE COMPANY

Notes to Financial Statements - Unaudited

June 30, 2012

management believes will be recovered. In March 2009, a lease was signed with St. Agnes to permit it to remain in the property while submitting lease payments to bondholders as partial interest payments. Lease payments began in the second quarter of 2009, however St. Agnes failed to make all required lease payments and was evicted from the property in the first quarter of 2010. The trustee has sold one of the properties. The trustee has not provided details of the sale to bondholders as of June 30, 2012.

The Company currently owns $637,000 First Mortgage Bonds and $497,000 Second Mortgage Bonds issued by Agape Assembly Baptist Church located in Orlando, Florida. The total principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds issued by Agape is $7,200,000, and the total principal amount of Second Mortgage Bonds issued is $715,000. Agape defaulted on its payment obligations to bondholders in September 2010. The church subsequently commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization proceeding regarding the property that secures the First Mortgage Bonds in December 2010. Agape is currently performing under a loan modification agreement. The trustee is collecting weekly sinking fund payments from the Church, however this has not yet resulted in any disbursements to bondholders as of June 30, 2012. If the Church continues to make its re-scheduled weekly payments, the trustee believes it will be able to resume the quarterly distribution of interest to bondholders in the third quarter of 2012. The Company, along with all other bondholders, has a superior lien over all other creditors. The Company has an aggregate allowance for losses of $200,000 for the First and Second Mortgage Bonds at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which effectively reduces the bonds to the fair value amount management believes will be recovered.

4. SECURED INVESTOR CERTIFICATES

Secured investor certificates are collateralized by certain mortgage loans receivable or secured church bonds of approximately the same value as the certificates. The weighted average interest rate on the certificates was 6.65% at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Holders of the secured investor certificates may renew certificates at the current rates and terms upon maturity at the Company’s discretion. Renewals upon maturity are considered neither proceeds from nor issuance of secured investor certificates. Renewals totaled approximately $105,000 and $366,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The secured investor certificates have certain financial and non-financial covenants indentified in the respective series’ trust indentures.

The estimated maturity schedule for the secured investor certificates at June 30, 2012 is as follows:

June 30, 2012

In October 2008, the Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to offer $20,000,000 worth of Series C secured investor certificates. The offering was declared effective by the SEC on March 30, 2009 and was amended in January 2010. The offering concluded March 31, 2012. The certificates were offered in multiples of $1,000 with interest rates ranging from 4.50% to 7.25%, subject to changing market rates, and maturities from 4 to 7 and 13 to 20 years. The certificates are collateralized by certain mortgage loans receivable and church bonds of approximately the same value. At June 30, 2012, approximately 7,932 Series C certificates had been issued and were outstanding for $7,932,000, of which 2,586 Series C certificates were issued through its stock repurchase program (see Note 5).

5. STOCK EXCHANGE AND REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

The Company commenced a stock exchange program effective February 2, 2010 whereby it offered to shareholders on an ongoing basis (until terminated or modified by the Board of Directors) an exchange of one $1,000 principal amount Series C secured investor certificate for 200 shares of common stock of the Company, and, with respect to odd-lot holders above 200 shares converted into certificates, the sum of $5.00 cash for each remaining share. This exchange ratio was determined by management and approved by the Board of Directors, and was established as a basis for the completion of the exchange offer. This ratio was not intended to represent the amount at which the Company or any other party would be expected to purchase common stock in an arm’s-length transaction. The Company’s Board of Directors approved up to 1,000,000 shares to be repurchased. As of June 30, 2012, requests representing approximately 532,743 shares have been submitted for share exchanges. The Company did not exchange any shares during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company exchanged 528,974 shares during the year ended December 31, 2011 for 2,586 Series C certificates ($2,586,000 in principal amount) and paid $76,870 in cash for remainder shares. The program was terminated by the Board of Directors on April 12, 2012 since the Company terminated the Series C secured investor certificate offering. (See Note 4).

The Company commenced a share repurchase plan on July 19, 2011 whereby it offers to shareholders on an ongoing, first-come, first-served basis (until terminated or modified by the Board of Directors) the repurchase of an aggregate of up to 250,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share. Shares may be purchased at the sole discretion of the Company, subject to the funds available after meeting Company obligations. Shareholders must present for repurchase either: (i) a minimum of 500 Shares, or (ii) the total number of Shares registered in such Shareholder’s name. The Company repurchased 14,863 shares for $59,453 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of 160,927 shares for $643,229 in cash under the program. The Program may be modified or rescinded at the Board’s discretion upon 10 days’ notice to shareholders.

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Company has an Advisory Agreement with Church Loan Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor”). The Advisor is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Company and provides office space and administrative services. The Advisor and the Company are related through common ownership and

common management. A majority of the independent board members approve the advisory agreement on an annual basis. The Company paid the Advisor management fees of approximately $100,000 and $109,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $197,000 and $211,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is required to disclose the fair value information about financial instruments, where it is practicable to estimate that value. Because assumptions used in these valuation techniques are inherently subjective in nature, the estimated fair values cannot always be substantiated by comparison to independent market quotes and, in many cases, the estimated fair values could not necessarily be realized in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument.

The fair value estimates presented herein are based on relevant information available to management as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect these estimated fair value amounts. As these reporting requirements exclude certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments, the aggregate fair value amounts presented herein do not represent management’s estimate of the underlying value of the Company.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, are as follows:

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and equivalents

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

AMERICAN CHURCH MORTGAGE COMPANY

Notes to Financial Statements - Unaudited

June 30, 2012

Accounts receivable

The carrying amount of accounts receivable approximates fair value.

Interest receivable

The carrying amount of interest receivable approximates fair value.

Mortgage loans receivable

The fair value of the mortgage loans receivable is currently more than the carrying value as the portfolio is currently yielding a higher rate than similar mortgages with similar terms for borrowers with similar credit quality. The credit markets in which we conduct business have experienced a decrease in interest rates resulting in the fair value of the mortgage loans increasing during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Bond portfolio

We determine the fair value of the bond portfolio shown in the table above by comparing with similar instruments in inactive markets. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the bonds, which are callable at par by the issuer at any time, and the anticipated cash flows of the bonds and uses observable and unobservable market-based inputs. Unobservable inputs include our internal credit rating and selection of similar bonds for valuation.

Secured investor certificates

The fair value of the secured investor certificates is currently greater than the carrying value due to higher interest rates than current market rates.

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 12, 2012, the Company completed the sale of a property held for sale. The purchase price of the property was $475,000. The purchaser provided a $20,000 cash down payment. The Company provided a $500,000 loan to the qualified church to purchase the property which is located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The terms of the loan were consistent with market terms for such financing. This property was acquired by the Company through foreclosure. The Company took possession of the property in March 2012.

Certain statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, (i) trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations; (ii) our business and growth strategies; (iii) the mortgage loan industry and the financial status of religious organizations; (iv) our financing plans; and other risks detailed in the Company’s other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “may”, “plan”, “should”, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were made and are not guarantees of future performance.

A detailed statement of risks and uncertainties is contained in our reports to the SEC, including, in particular, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and other public filings and disclosures.  Investors and shareholders are urged to read these documents carefully.

Plan of Operation

We were founded in May 1994 and commenced active business operations on April 15, 1996 after the completion of our initial public offering.

We currently have sixty-eight first mortgage loans aggregating $28,976,475 in principal amount and one second mortgage loan totaling $14,759 in principal amount and a first mortgage bond portfolio with par values aggregating $10,948,102. Although due to recent economic factors the Company has not made significant new investments in its principal form of assets funding of additional first mortgage loans and purchase of first mortgage bonds issued by churches is expected to resume as more investable assets become available through: (i) future sales of securities; (ii) prepayment and repayment at maturity of existing loans and bonds; and (iii) borrowed funds. These capital sources and interest received on loans and bonds provide general working capital to the Company.

We have completed public offerings of common stock and debt securities. In October 2008, we filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a public offering of $20,000,000 worth of Series C Secured Investor Certificates. The Series C Secured Investor Certificates were offered in multiples of $1,000 at interest rates ranging from 4.50% to 7.25%, subject to changing market rates, and maturities from 4 to 7 and 13 to 20 years. The offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2010 and amended in January 2010. The offering concluded March 31, 2012. At June 30, 2012, approximately 7,932 Series C certificates had been issued and were outstanding with a balance of $7,932,000 of which 2,586 Series C certificates were issued in connection with its stock repurchase program.

Results of Operations

Fiscal 2012 Six Months Compared to Fiscal 2011 Six Months

The Company’s had a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 of approximately ($496,000) and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of approximately $141,000. The Company had total

interest and other income of approximately $1,552,000 and $1,620,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Interest and other income is comprised of interest from loans, interest from bonds, amortization of bond discounts and amortization of loan origination fees. As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s loans receivable have interest rates ranging from 1.00% to 10.25%, with an average, principal-adjusted interest rate of 8.55%. The Company’s bond portfolio has an average current yield of 7.92% as of June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2011, the average, principal-adjusted interest rate on the Company’s portfolio of loans was 8.40% and the Company’s portfolio of bonds had an average current yield of 7.92%. The decrease in interest income was due to the scheduled repayment of mortgage loans and the maturation and sale of some of the bonds in our portfolio.

Interest expense was approximately $935,000 and $914,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due to the sale of additional Secured Investor Certificates which occurred prior to the termination of the Series C Secured Investor Certificate offering as of March 31, 2012. Net interest margin decreased from 43.59% to 39.72% resulting primarily from a decline in interest and other income of approximately 4.00% compared to an increase in interest expense of 2.37%.

We continually assess our loan portfolio and reserve for potential losses based on the payment history, status of loans and market conditions. Due to changing economic conditions and the current status of, and trends in, our loan portfolio, which has seen a rise in both past due loans and loans in the foreclosure process during the past several years, we made changes to our loan policy in fiscal 2010 to permit us to accelerate the recording of provisions when amounts become past due. We continue to monitor the policy in light of changing economic conditions. In addition, we have written off accrued interest on certain loans as a result of these changes. These changes to our loan loss policy have increased the amount of reserves against potential loan losses and our expense of past due amounts that are deemed doubtful of collection.

Provision for losses on mortgage loans receivable increased for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as we recorded additional provision against the mortgage loans. We recorded an additional provision for losses on loans during the six months ended June 30, 2012 of approximately $210,000 compared to approximately $87,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2012, we reserved approximately $788,000 for thirteen mortgage loans, of which six are three or more mortgage payments in arrears. At December 31, 2011, we reserved approximately $813,000 for fifteen mortgage loans, of which eight were three or more mortgage payments in arrears. One loan was in the foreclosure process.

Our lending practices limit deployment of our capital to churches and other non-profit religious organizations. The total principal amount of our second mortgage loans is limited to 20% of our average invested assets. We currently have one second mortgage loan of approximately $15,000 in principal amount outstanding. We do not loan to any borrower who has been in operation for less than two years and the borrower must demonstrate they can service the debt outstanding for the prior three years based on historical financial statements. We do not lend money based on projections or pledge programs. The loan amount to any borrower cannot exceed 75% loan to appraised value. Typically, we do not lend over 70% loan to value except in extenuating circumstances. In addition, the borrower’s long-term debt (including the proposed loan) cannot exceed four times the borrower’s gross income for the previous twelve month period.

Historically, loans in our portfolio are outstanding for an average of five and a half years. Our borrowers are typically small independent churches with little or no borrowing history. Once a church establishes a payment history with us, they look to refinance their loan with a local bank, credit union or other financial institution which is willing to provide financing since the borrower has established a payment history and have demonstrated they can meet their mortgage debt obligations.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased to approximately $403,000 compared to $378,000 at June 30, 2011. The increase is the result of higher legal fees incurred with recent foreclosure proceedings, an increase in real estate impairment and bond reserves.

Fiscal 2012 Second Quarter Compared to Fiscal 2011 Second Quarter

The Company had a net loss of approximately ($622,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and had net income of approximately $33,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, on total interest and other income of approximately $776,000 and $832,000, respectively. Interest expense was approximately $475,000 and $458,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in net interest income was approximately $72,000. In addition, the Company experienced an increase in provisions for losses on its bond portfolio of approximately $500,000 for the sixth month period ended June 30, 2012.

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 increased to approximately $218,000 compared to $199,000 at June 30, 2011. The increase in operating expenses is due to increases in real estate impairment, legal fees and costs associated with real estate held for sale, as well as additional provisions for losses on our bond portfolio in the approximate amount of $500,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012.

Mortgage Loans and Bond Portfolio

No mortgage loans were paid in full during the six months ended June 30, 2012. No new loans were funded during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company currently owns $2,035,000 First Mortgage Bonds issued by St. Agnes Missionary Baptist Church located in Houston, Texas. The total principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds issued by St. Agnes is $13,375,000. St. Agnes defaulted on its payment obligations to bondholders in June 2007. The church subsequently commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization proceeding regarding the three properties that secure the First Mortgage Bonds in November 2007, which was dismissed in September 2008, and the church was subsequently foreclosed upon. The Company, along with all other bondholders, has a superior lien over all other creditors. No accrual for interest receivable from the First Mortgage Bonds is recorded by the Company. The Company has an aggregate allowance for losses of $1,300,000 and $800,000 for the First Mortgage Bonds at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which effectively reduces the bonds to the fair value amount management believes will be recovered. In March 2009, a lease was signed with St. Agnes to permit it to remain in the property while submitting lease payments to bondholders as partial interest payments. Lease payments began in the second quarter of 2009, however St. Agnes failed to make all required lease payments and was evicted from the property in the first quarter of 2010. The trustee has sold one of the properties. The trustee has not provided details of the sale to bondholders as of June 30, 2012.

The Company currently owns $637,000 First Mortgage Bonds and $497,000 Second Mortgage Bonds issued by Agape Assembly Baptist Church located in Orlando, Florida. The total principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds issued by Agape is $7,200,000, and the total principal amount of Second Mortgage Bonds issued is $715,000. Agape defaulted on its payment obligations to bondholders in September 2010. The church subsequently commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization proceeding regarding the property that secures the First Mortgage Bonds in December 2010. Agape is currently performing under a loan modification agreement. The trustee is collecting weekly sinking fund payments from the Church, however this has not yet resulted in any disbursements to bondholders as of March 31, 2012. If the Church continues to make its re-scheduled weekly payments, the trustee believes it will be

able to resume the quarterly distribution of interest to bondholders in the near future. The Company, along with all other bondholders, has a superior lien over all other creditors. The Company has an aggregate allowance for losses of $200,000 for the First and Second Mortgage Bonds during the periods ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which effectively reduces the bonds to the fair value amount management believes will be recovered.

New Policies

We recently established a formal policy in which we will declare a loan to be in default whereupon the loan will be placed on non-accrual status when the following thresholds have been met:

We recently established a policy in which we will accept payments received on nonaccrual loans as well as a policy for resuming accrual of interest on loans that have been placed on non-accrual status. These policies are as follows:

We recently established the following policy for determining when an uncollectable loan or trade receivable is charged off:

When a loan is declared in default by our policy or deemed to be doubtful of collection, the loan committee of the Advisor to the Company will direct the staff to write-off the uncollectable receivables. Details of the Advisory agreement can be found on page 8 in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Real Estate Held for Sale

All assets held by us are secured, directly or indirectly, by either a first or second mortgage on the underlying property to serve as collateral. Acquisition of a property through foreclosure or other means will always be a remedial step in protecting the Company’s assets. We will always market foreclosed property that we acquire as available for sale and will carry such properties on our balance sheet as real estate available for sale until the property is sold. Our acquisition and ownership of real estate is not a line of business or business objective and is only the result of foreclosure of underlying mortgages. The

fair value of real estate held for sale is based upon the listed sales price less excepted selling costs. The fair value of real estate held for sale was approximately $1,093,000 and $714,000 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Dividends

We have elected to operate as a real estate investment trust (REIT), therefore we are required, among other things, to distribute to shareholders at least 90% of “Taxable Income” in order to maintain our REIT status. The dividends declared and paid to shareholders may include cash from origination fees even though they are not recognized as income in their entirety for the period under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. We did not earn any origination fees for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

We paid a dividend of $.09 for each share held of record on January 25, 2012. The dividend, which was paid January 30, 2012, represents a 3.60% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.09 for each share held of record on April 25, 2012. The dividend, which was paid April 30, 2012, represents a 3.60% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.06 for each share held of record on July 26, 2012. The dividend, which was paid July 31, 2012, represents a 2.40% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned, assuming a purchase price of $10 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate revenue through implementation of our business plan of making mortgage loans to, and acquiring first mortgage bonds issued by, churches and other non-profit religious organizations. Our revenue is derived principally from interest income, and secondarily through the origination fees and renewal fees generated by the mortgage loans we make. We also earn income through interest on funds that are invested pending their use in funding mortgage loans and on income generated on church bonds. Our principal recurring expenses are advisory fees, legal fees, accounting fees and interest payments on secured investor certificates. Our liabilities at June 30, 2012 are primarily comprised of dividends declared as of June 30, 2012 but not yet paid and our Secured Investor Certificates.

Our current capital is fully deployed into loans and first mortgage church bonds. Our current funding sources are expected to provide adequate cash for our operations for the next twelve months. Future capital needs are expected to be met by: (i) the additional sale of securities; (ii) prepayment and repayment at maturity of mortgage loans we make; (iii) borrowed funds; and (iv) bonds that mature or we sell from our bond portfolio. We believe that the “rolling” effect of mortgage loans maturing and bond repayments will provide a supplemental source of capital to fund our business operations in future years. Nevertheless, we believe that it may be desirable, if not necessary, to sell additional securities in order to enhance our capacity to make mortgage loans on a continuous basis. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable for such purposes.

In October 2008, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement to offer $20,000,000 worth of Series C Secured Investor Certificates to qualified investors. The offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2009 and amended in January 2010. The offering was concluded March 31, 2012. These certificates provided a source of capital to fund additional loans to qualified borrowers, pay down existing maturing certificates and to pay

off our line of credit. At June 30, 2012, approximately $7,932,000 had been collected from the issuance of 7,932 Series C certificates.

The Company commenced a stock repurchase program effective February 2, 2010 whereby it offered to shareholders on an ongoing basis (until terminated or modified by the Board of Directors) an exchange of one $1,000 principal amount Series C secured investor certificate for 200 shares of common stock of the Company, and, with respect to odd-lot holders above 200 shares converted into certificates, the sum of $5.00 cash for each remaining share. This exchange ratio was determined by management and approved by the Board of Directors, and was established as a basis for the completion of the exchange offer. This ratio was not intended to represent the amount at which the Company or any other party would be expected to purchase common stock in an arm’s-length transaction. The Company’s Board of Directors approved up to 1,000,000 shares to be repurchased. As of March 31, 2012, requests representing an aggregate of approximately 532,743 shares were submitted for share exchanges. The Company did not exchange any shares during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The Company exchanged 528,974 shares during the year ended December 31, 2011 for 2,586 Series C certificates ($2,586,000 in principal amount) and paid $76,810 in cash for remainder shares. The program was terminated by the Board of Directors on April 12, 2012 because the Company did not renew the Series C Secured Investor Certificate offering.

The Company commenced a share repurchase plan on July 19, 2011 whereby it offers to shareholders on an ongoing, first-come, first-served basis (until terminated or modified by the Board of Directors): the repurchase of an aggregate of up to 250,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share. Shares may be purchased at the sole discretion of the Company, subject to the funds available after meeting Company obligations. Shareholders must present for repurchase either: (i) a minimum of 500 Shares, or (ii) the total number of Shares registered in such Shareholder’s name. The Company repurchased 14,863 shares for $59,452 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had repurchased 160,927 shares for $643,229 in cash. The Program may be modified or rescinded at the Board’s discretion upon 10 days’ notice to shareholders.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, total assets increased by approximately $226,000 due to an increase in proceeds from our Series C certificate offering. Current liabilities increased by approximately $91,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 due to an increase in our current maturities of secured investor certificates outstanding. Non-current liabilities increased by approximately $1,137,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 due to the sale of secured investor certificates from our series C certificate offering prior to termination of the offering.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities decreased to approximately $267,000 from $787,000 from the comparative period ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable as well as a decrease in the net income (loss) adjusted for non-cash items.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash provided by investing activities was approximately $314,000 compared to cash provided by investing activities of approximately $480,000 from the comparative six months ended June 30, 2012, due to a decrease in collections of mortgage loans.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash provided by (used for) financing activities increased to approximately $646,000 from ($620,000) for the comparative six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to an increase in proceeds from Secured Investor Certificate sales.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Preparation of our financial statements requires estimates and judgments to be made that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. We evaluate these estimates based on assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The difficulty in applying these policies arises from the assumptions, estimates and judgments that have to be made currently about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future economic conditions, operating results and valuations as well as management intentions. As the difficulty increases, the level of precision decreases, meaning that actual results can and probably will be different from those currently estimated.

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most sensitive estimates relate to the realizability of the mortgage loans receivable and the valuation of the bond portfolio and real estate held for sale. It is at least reasonably possible that these estimates could change in the near term and that the effect of the change, if any, may be material to the financial statements.

We estimate the value of real estate we hold pending re-sale based on a number of factors. We look at the current condition of the property as well as current market conditions in determining a fair value, which will determine the listing price of each property. Each property is valued based on its current listing price less any anticipated selling costs, including for example, realtor commissions. Since churches are single use facilities the listing price of the property may be lower than the total amount owed to us. Attorney fees, taxes, utilities along with real estate commission fees will also reduce the amount we collect from the sale of a property we have acquired through foreclosure. The fair value of the real estate held for sale includes estimates of expenses related to the sale of the real estate.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Items 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal accounting officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

As of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2012, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
