AMREP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Three and Nine Months Ended January 31, 2020 and 2019

 

(1)SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by AMREP Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in one business segment: the real estate business. The Company has no foreign sales or activities outside the United States. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to reflect a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what may occur in future periods. Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to 2020 and 2019 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2020 and 2019 and all references to the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 and 2019 mean the fiscal three month and nine month periods ended January 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on July 26, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). Certain 2019 balances in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on net income (loss) or shareholders’ equity.

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the 2019 Form 10-K, except for those adopted as described below.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. During the first nine months of 2020, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000 as a result of adoption of ASU 2016-02. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires the lessor to recognize fixed lease payments under tenant leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

  

8

 

 

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The Company opted not to reclassify items from other comprehensive income to retained earnings, as was permitted by ASU 2018-02; therefore, the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant for companies with defined benefit retirement plans. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes certain exceptions for companies related to tax allocations and simplifies when companies recognize deferred tax liabilities in an interim period. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on the accounting policies used and disclosed in the 2019 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and included as part of the 2019 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The preparation of those consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts or results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

 

The Company’s critical accounting policies, assumptions and estimates are described in Item 7 of Part II of the 2019 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in these critical accounting policies.

 

The significant accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. Information concerning the Company’s implementation and the impact of recent accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board is included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The Company did not adopt any accounting policy in the third quarter of 2020 or the first nine months of 2020 that had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the following accounting policies effective May 1, 2019:

 

·In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. During the first nine months of 2020, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires the lessor to recognize fixed lease payments under tenant leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

·In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

·In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The Company opted not to reclassify items from other comprehensive income to retained earnings, as was permitted by ASU 2018-02; therefore, the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Prior to April 26, 2019, the Company had been engaged in the fulfillment services business. On April 26, 2019, the fulfillment services business was sold (refer to Item 1 of Part I of the 2019 Form 10-K for more detail). The Company’s fulfillment services business has been classified as discontinued operations in the financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. Financial information from prior periods has been reclassified to conform to this presentation.

 

For the third quarter of 2020, the Company recorded net income of $338,000, or $0.04 per share, compared to a net loss of $32,000, or $0.00 per share, for the third quarter of 2019. For the first nine months of 2020, the Company recorded a net loss of $2,027,000, or $0.25 per share, compared to net income of $84,000, or $0.01 per share, for the first nine months of 2019. Results from 2020 consisted entirely of continuing operations. For the third quarter of 2019, results consisted of (i) a net loss from continuing operations of $1,455,000, or $0.18 per share and (ii) net income from discontinued operations of $1,423,000, or $0.18 per share. A discussion of continuing operations follows.

Revenues were $5,287,000 and $14,014,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 compared to $2,381,000 and $9,239,000 for the same periods of 2019.

 

Revenues from land sales were $4,477,000 and $12,291,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 compared to $2,376,000 and $8,924,000 for the same periods of 2019. Revenues from land sales for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 included revenue of $665,000 from the sale of two undeveloped properties in Palm Coast, Florida. For the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 and 2019, the Company’s land sales in New Mexico were as follows (dollars in thousands):

The average gross profit percentage on land sales in New Mexico before indirect costs was 19% and 18% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020 compared to 17% and 12% for the same periods of 2019. The profit percentage increase is attributable to the demand for lots by builders resulting in higher revenue per developed lot. As a result of many factors, including the nature and timing of specific transactions and the type and location of land being sold, revenues, average selling prices and related average gross profits from land sales can vary significantly from period to period and prior results are not necessarily a good indication of what may occur in future periods.

 

Rent revenues were $114,000 and $796,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020. There were no comparable rents from the prior year due to the applicable lease agreements being signed in April 2019 as part of the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business. The Company discontinued recognizing rent revenues for a portion of the third quarter of 2020. Refer to Note 11 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q for detail about a settlement agreement entered into in February 2020 with the Company’s former fulfillment services business and its buyer.

 

Other revenues were $696,000 for the third quarter of 2020 and $5,000 for the third quarter of 2019. Other revenues were $927,000 for the first nine months of 2020 and $315,000 for the first nine months of 2019. Other revenues for the third quarter of 2020 and the first nine months of 2020 included $499,000 of royalties received during the third quarter of 2020 from oil and gas production for the period March 2019 through November 2019 by a third party lessee with respect to the Company’s mineral rights in Brighton, Colorado. Additional other revenue resulted from forfeited deposits and amortization of deferred revenue.

Operating expenses for real estate increased from $258,000 and $779,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 to $471,000 and $1,473,000 for the same periods of 2020, primarily due to increased employee hiring, bonuses, new allocations of certain employee costs previously classified as corporate general and administrative expenses, increased accruals for real estate taxes and increased health care benefits costs.

 

Real estate general and administrative expenses decreased from $111,000 for the third quarter of 2019 to $93,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to reduced professional fees related to abandoned transactions. Real estate general and administrative expenses decreased from $415,000 in the first nine months of 2019 to $365,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to a decrease in legal and other professional fees. Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased from $811,000 and $2,604,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 to $494,000 and $1,978,000 for the same periods of 2020, primarily due to new allocations of certain employee costs to operating expenses for real estate, reduced corporate headcount and lower travel and legal expenses. Refer to Note 11 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q for detail about a settlement agreement entered into in February 2020 with the Company’s former fulfillment services business and its buyer. The reduced corporate general and administrative expenses were partly offset by increased real estate taxes of $151,000 which the Company agreed to pay under the settlement agreement.

 

Interest income, net increased from $36,000 and $103,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 to $58,000 and $323,000 for the same periods of 2020, primarily due to investment of excess funds in higher yielding savings accounts, interest earned in 2020 on the deferred purchase price related to the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business and a reduction in interest expense. Beginning in December 2019, the Company discontinued recognizing interest from deferred revenue that originated from the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business in April 2019. Refer to Note 11 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q for detail about a settlement agreement entered into in February 2020 with the Company’s former fulfillment services business and its buyer. The Company recognized interest from deferred revenue of $31,000 and $191,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020.

 

The Company recognized a non-cash pre-tax pension settlement charge of $2,929,000 in the first nine months of 2020, due to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan paying an aggregate of $7,280,000 in lump sum payouts of pension benefits to certain former employees during the three months ended October 31, 2019. There were no such charges in the third quarter of 2020 or 2019 or in the first nine months of 2019.

 

The Company had a provision for income taxes of $396,000 in connection with $734,000 of income from continuing operations before income taxes for the third quarter of 2020, as compared to a provision for income taxes of $730,000 in connection with a $725,000 loss from continuing operations before income taxes for the same period of 2019. The Company had a benefit from income taxes of $360,000 in connection with a $2,387,000 loss from continuing operations before income taxes for the first nine months of 2020, as compared to a provision for income taxes of $385,000 in connection with a $2,311,000 loss from continuing operations before income taxes in the same period of 2019. The difference between the statutory rate and the effective rate of the tax benefit for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2020 was primarily due to adjustments resulting from the finalization of the 2019 tax return when compared to the April 2019 year-end tax provision.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The Company’s primary sources of funding for working capital requirements are cash flow from operations, bank financing for real estate projects and existing cash balances. The Company’s liquidity is affected by many factors, including some that are based on normal operations and some that are related to the industry in which the Company operates and the economy generally. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s liquidity and capital resources as reflected in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2019 Form 10-K.

 

Operating Activities

 

Real estate inventory decreased from $57,773,000 at April 30, 2019 to $54,084,000 at January 31, 2020, primarily due to real estate land sales, which were offset in part by an increase in land development activity. Investment assets, net increased from $17,227,000 at April 30, 2019 to $17,658,000 at January 31, 2020, primarily due to capitalization of costs related to the construction of a single tenant retail building, offset in part by the sale of investment land and depreciation.

 

21

 

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $2,964,000 at April 30, 2019 to $3,451,000 at January 31, 2020, primarily due to increased construction activity plus accrual of additional lease liabilities at January 31, 2020, offset partly by costs associated with forfeited builder deposits during the third quarter of 2020.

 

Accrued pension costs decreased from $6,401,000 at April 30, 2019 to $2,527,000 at January 31, 2020, primarily due to a voluntary contribution of $3,600,000 to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan. Refer to Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K for detail regarding the acceleration of the funding of $5,194,000 of accrued pension-related obligations to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan and the Company’s election to satisfy this accelerated funding obligation over a period of seven years beginning in fiscal year 2021. Notwithstanding such election, the contribution to the pension plan of $3,600,000 during 2020 eliminated any requirement for the Company to further satisfy the $5,194,000 of accelerated accrued pension-related obligations to the pension plan.

 

Refer to Note 11 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q for detail about a settlement agreement entered into in February 2020 with the Company’s former fulfillment services business and its buyer and with respect to real property owned by the Company in Palm Coast, Florida.

 

Financing Activities

 

Notes payable, net decreased from $1,319,000 at April 30, 2019 to $982,000 at January 31, 2020, primarily due to repayments in excess of new borrowings made on financings for land development activity. The Company’s financing arrangements in effect during 2020 are described below:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. As a result of such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No change in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
