THE INTERGROUP CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by The InterGroup Corporation (“InterGroup” or the “Company”), without audit, according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Further, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which included only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, cash flows and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of InterGroup and the notes therein included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015. The June 30, 2015 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2016.
For the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no components of comprehensive income other than net loss itself.
Basic and diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted income per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share except that the weighted-average number of common shares is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive common shares had been issued. The Company's only potentially dilutive common shares are stock options. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not have diluted earnings per share as the Company had a net loss for the respective periods.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had the power to vote 85.6% of the voting shares of Santa Fe Financial Corporation (“Santa Fe”), a public company (OTCBB: SFEF). This percentage includes the power to vote an approximately 4% interest in the common stock in Santa Fe owned by the Company’s Chairman and President pursuant to a voting trust agreement entered into on June 30, 1998.
Santa Fe’s primary business is conducted through the management of its 68.8% owned subsidiary, Portsmouth Square, Inc. (“Portsmouth”), a public company (OTCBB: PRSI). Portsmouth’s primary business is conducted through its general and limited partnership interest in Justice Investors, a California limited partnership (“Justice” or the “Partnership”). Portsmouth controls approximately 93% of the voting interest in Justice and is the sole general partner. InterGroup also directly owns approximately 13.1% of the common stock of Portsmouth. The financial statements of Justice are consolidated with those of the Company.
Justice, through its subsidiaries Justice Holdings Company, LLC (“Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability Company, Justice Operating Company, LLC (“Operating”) , a Delaware limited liability Company, and Justice Mezzanine Company, LLC (“Mezzanine”) , a Delaware limited liability Company, owns a 543-room hotel property located at 750 Kearny Street, San Francisco California, known as the Hilton San Francisco Financial District (the “Hotel”) and related facilities including a five level underground parking garage. Holdings and Mezzanine are both wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Partnership; Operating is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mezzanine. Mezzanine is the mezzanine borrower under certain indebtedness of Justice, and in December 2013, the Partnership conveyed ownership of the Hotel to Operating. See Recent Business Developments – Limited Partnership Redemption and Restructuring. The Hotel is operated by the Partnership as a full service Hilton brand hotel pursuant to a Franchise License Agreement with HLT Franchise Holding LLC (Hilton) . Justice also has entered into a Management Agreement with Prism Hospitality L.P. (“Prism”) to perform management functions for the Hotel. The management agreement with Prism had an original term of ten years and can be terminated at any time with or without cause by the Partnership owner. Effective January 2014, the management agreement with Prism was amended by the Partnership. The Owner and Manager desire to amend and restate the Existing Management Agreement to change the nature of the services provided by Manager and its compensation, among other things. Effective December 1, 2013, GMP Management, Inc., a company owned by a Justice limited partner and related party, also provides management services for the Partnership pursuant to a Management Services Agreement, which is for a term of 3 years, but which can be terminated earlier by the Partnership for cause.
| -7- |
Management believes that the revenues expected to be generated from the operations of the hotel, garage and leases will be sufficient to meet all of the Partnership’s current and future obligations and financial requirements. Management also believes that there is significant value in the Hotel to support additional borrowings, if necessary.
In addition to the operations of the Hotel, the Company also generates income from the ownership of real estate. Properties include sixteen apartment complexes, one commercial real estate, and three single-family houses as strategic investments. The properties are located throughout the United States, but are concentrated in Texas and Southern California. The Company also has investments in unimproved real property.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-17, Income Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which is intended to improve how deferred taxes are classified on organizations’ balance sheets by eliminating the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations will now be required to classify all deferred
tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The changes are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, which means the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2018. We are currently reviewing the ASU and assessing the potential impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory ("ASU 2015-11") which requires entities to measure most inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Though permitted, the Company does not plan to early adopt. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2015-11 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early application is permitted. We are in the process of evaluating this guidance.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which changes the consolidation analysis for both the variable interest model and for the voting model for limited partnerships and similar entities. ASU 2015-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, early application is permitted. ASU 2015-02 provides for one of two methods of transition: retrospective application to each prior period presented; or recognition of the cumulative effect of retrospective application of the new standard in the period of initial application. We are in the process of evaluating this guidance and our method of adoption.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360)(“ASU 2014-08”). The amendments in ASU 2014-08 provide guidance for the recognition of discontinued operations, change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in ASC 205-20, “Discontinued Operations” (“ASC 205-20”) and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted this standard in the quarter ended September 30, 2015 and it did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements as it relates primarily to how items are presented in the financial statements.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) amending revenue recognition guidance and requiring more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not plan to early adopt. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
| -8- |
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). The new guidance explicitly requires that management assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and may require additional detailed disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Though permitted, the Company does not plan to early adopt. The Company does not believe that this standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The fair values of investments in marketable securities are determined by the most recently traded price of each security at the balance sheet date. The fair value of the warrants was determined based upon a Black-Scholes option valuation model.
Financial assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are not included in the tables above include “Other investments in non-marketable securities,” that were initially measured at cost and have been written down to fair value as a result of impairment or adjusted to record the fair value of new instruments received (i.e., preferred shares) in exchange for old instruments (i.e., debt instruments). The following table shows the fair value hierarchy for these assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as follows:

Other investments in non-marketable securities are carried at cost net of any impairment loss. The Company has no significant influence or control over the entities that issue these investments and holds less than 20% ownership in each of the investments. These investments are reviewed on a periodic basis for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company reviews several factors to determine whether a loss is other-than-temporary. These factors include but are not limited to: (i) the length of time an investment is in an unrealized loss position, (ii) the extent to which fair value is less than cost, (iii) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer and (iv) our ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
NOTE 7 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company follows Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which addresses accounting for equity-based compensation arrangements, including employee stock options and restricted stock units.
Please refer to Note 16 – Stock Based Compensation Plans in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015 for more detail information on the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.
During the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded stock option compensation cost of $123,000 and $227,000, respectively, related to stock options that were previously issued. During the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded stock option compensation cost of $242,000 and $464,000, respectively, related to stock options that were previously issued. As of December 31, 2015, there was a total of $508,000 of unamortized compensation related to stock options which is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 3 years.
Option-pricing models require the input of various subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility is based on analysis of the Company’s stock price history. The Company has selected to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury interest rates whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. No dividend yield is included as the Company has not issued any dividends and does not anticipate issuing any dividends in the future.
The following table summarizes the stock options activity from July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2015:

NOTE 9 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On July 2, 2014, the Partnership obtained from the InterGroup Corporation (parent company of Portsmouth) an unsecured loan in the principal amount of $4,250,000 at 12% per year fixed interest, with a term of 2 years, payable interest only each month. InterGroup received a 3% loan fee. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The loan was eliminated in consolidation.
During the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company received management fees from Justice Investors totaling $137,000 and $140,000, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company received management fees from Justice Investors totaling $300,000 and $281,000, respectively.
These fees are eliminated in consolidation.
In connection with the redemption of limited partnership interests of Justice Investors, Limited Partnership (which took place during fiscal year ended June 30, 2014), Justice Operating Company, LLC agreed to pay a total of $1,550,000 in fees to certain officers and directors of the Company for services rendered in connection with the redemption of partnership interests, refinancing of Justice’s properties and reorganization of Justice Investors. This agreement was superseded by a letter dated December 11, 2013 from Justice Investors, Limited Partnership, in which Justice Investors Limited Partnership assumed the payment obligations of Justice Operating Company, LLC. The first payment under this agreement was made concurrently with the closing of the loan agreements, with the remaining payments due upon Justice Investor’s having adequate available cash as described in the letter. As of December 31, 2015, $400,000 of these fees remains outstanding.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As of December 31, 2015, the Company owned approximately 81.7% of the common shares of its subsidiary, Santa Fe and Santa Fe owned approximately 68.8% of the common shares of Portsmouth Square, Inc. InterGroup also directly owns approximately 13.1% of the common shares of Portsmouth. The Company's principal sources of revenue continue to be derived from the general and limited partnership interests of its subsidiary, Portsmouth, in the Justice Investors limited partnership (“Justice” or the “Partnership”), rental income from its investments in multi-family real estate properties and income received from investment of its cash and securities assets. Justice owns a 543 room hotel property located at 750 Kearny Street, San Francisco, California 94108, known as the “Hilton San Francisco Financial District” (the “Hotel”) and related facilities, including a five-level underground parking garage. The financial statements of Justice have been consolidated with those of the Company.
The Hotel is operated by the Partnership as a full service Hilton brand hotel pursuant to a Franchise License Agreement with HLT Franchise Holding LLC (Hilton). The Partnership entered into a Franchise License agreement with the HLT Franchise Holding LLC (Hilton) on December 10, 2004. The term of the License agreement was for an initial period of 15 years commencing on the opening date, with an option to extend the license agreement for another five years, subject to certain conditions. On June 26, 2015, the Partnership and Hilton entered into an amended franchise agreement which extended the franchise agreement through 2030, modified the monthly royalty rate, extended geographic protection to the Partnership and also provided the Partnership certain key money cash incentives to be earned through 2030. The key money cash incentives were received on July 1, 2015 and are included in accounts receivable at June 30, 2015.
Justice also has a Management Agreement with Prism Hospitality L.P. (“Prism”) to perform management functions for the Hotel. The management agreement with Prism had an original term of ten years and can be terminated at any time with or without cause by the Partnership owner. Effective January 2014, the management agreement with Prism was amended by the Partnership. Effective December 1, 2013, GMP Management, Inc., a company owned by a Justice limited partner and related party, also provides management services for the Partnership pursuant to a Management Services Agreement, which is for a term of 3 years, but which can be terminated earlier by the Partnership for cause.
The parking garage that is part of the Hotel property is managed by Ace Parking pursuant to a contract with the Partnership. Portsmouth also receives management fees as a general partner of Justice for its services in overseeing and managing the Partnership’s assets. Those fees are eliminated in consolidation.
In addition to the operations of the Hotel, the Company also generates income from the ownership and management of real estate. Properties include sixteen apartment complexes, one commercial real estate property, and three single-family houses as strategic investments. The properties are located throughout the United States, but are concentrated in Texas and Southern California. The Company also has an investment in unimproved real property. As of December 31, 2015, all of the Company’s properties are managed in-house.

The Company had a net loss of $5,130,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to a net loss of $608,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in the net loss is primarily attributable to the higher net loss on marketable securities primarily as the result of the decrease in the market value of the Company’s holdings in common stock of Comstock Mining, Inc., offset by the gain on the sale of real estate recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2014.
The Company had a net loss from hotel operations of $828,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to a net loss of $523,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Hotel revenues decreased during the current quarter, while operating expenses also decreased by a lower percentage relative to the decrease in revenues.
The following table sets forth a more detailed presentation of Hotel operations for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
| For the three months ended December 31, | 2015 | 2014 | ||||||
| Hotel revenues: | ||||||||
| Hotel rooms | $ | 10,796,000 | $ | 10,916,000 | ||||

| Net loss from Hotel operations | $ | (828,000 | ) | $ | (523,000 | ) | ||
For the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Hotel generated operating income of $1,744,000 before the loss on disposal of assets and interest and depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $13,713,000 compared to operating income of $2,011,000 before the loss on disposal of assets and interest and depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $14,044,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Room revenues decreased by $120,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2014 primarily as the result of the decrease in group stays. Food and beverage revenue also decreased by $215,000 as the result of lower catering and banquet services from groups.
Total operating expenses remained consistent with the prior comparable period. However, the Hotel did have a decrease in franchise fees and legal expenses offset by increases in property taxes, repairs and maintenance expense and management fees. Franchise fees decreased as the result of the new Hilton franchise agreement. Legal expenses decreased as the result of coming closer to a settlement of the current litigation.
The following table sets forth the average daily room rate, average occupancy percentage and room revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) of the Hotel for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
| -17- |
| Three Months Ended December 31, | Average Daily Rate | Average Occupancy % | RevPAR | |||||||||
| 2015 | $ | 243 | 89 | % | $ | 216 | ||||||
| 2014 | $ | 245 | 89 | % | $ | 218 | ||||||
The Hotel’s revenues decreased by 2.4% this quarter as compared to the previous comparable quarter. Average daily rate and RevPAR decreased by $2 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2014.
Our highest priority is guest satisfaction. We believe that enhancing the guest experience differentiates the Hotel from our competition by building the most sustainable guest loyalty program. The Hotel's loyalty score improved by five percentage points year-over-year and our overall service score by four percentage points. We attribute this improvement to continued training of team members on Hilton brand standards and guest satisfaction, hiring and retaining talents in key operations, and enhancing the arrival experience. In addition, the Hotel replaced the carpet flooring in the lobby with oak wood, creating an open and welcoming environment; modernized the furniture in the lobby, the porte cochere, and the second floor; and replaced the third floor carpets and doors. The Wellness Center on the fifth floor features a new spa with two treatment rooms and a room for manicure and pedicure which has been doing well. The fitness center has been expanded with state of the art equipment.
In order to further enhance the guest experience, the Hotel plans to renovate the fourth floor meeting rooms to make a state of the art meeting space and, concurrently, to renovate the fourth floor bathrooms. The hotel will remodel guest room bathrooms with modern shower amenities, and update desk tables and the night stands with granite tops for a sleek and modern look. The Hotel is also looking into converting the carpet in the rooms to hardwood floors. Finally, the Hotel, in conjunction with the Chinese Cultural Center, is developing a landscape area on the Pedestrian Bridge that connects the Hotel to Portsmouth Square. We continue to take steps that further develop our ties with the local Chinese community and the city of San Francisco, representing good corporate citizenship and promoting important, new business opportunities.
Real estate revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2015 decreased to $3,546,000 from $4,030,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 primarily as the result of the sale of the 249 unit apartment located in Austin, Texas in March 2015. Real estate operating expenses also decreased to $1,715,000 from $2,192,000 primarily as the result of the sale of the property. In August 2015, the Company terminated its third party property management agreement for the management of the Company’s properties located in California and will manage the properties in-house going forward. As of September 2015, all of the Company’s properties are being managed in house. Management believes this will result in a decrease operating expenses and greater operating efficiencies. Management continues to review and analyze the Company’s real estate operations to improve occupancy and rental rates and to reduce expenses and improve efficiencies.
In July 2015, the Company purchased a single family house located in Los Angeles, California for $1,975,000 as a strategic investment.
In November 2014, the Company sold its 5,900 square foot commercial property for $3,450,000 which resulted in a realized a gain on the sale of real estate of $1,742,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014.
The Company had a net loss on marketable securities of $6,356,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to a net loss on marketable securities of $1,544,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Approximately $5,562,000 of the $6,356,000 net loss is related to the Company’s investment in the common stock of Comstock. Such investments represent approximately 66% of the Company’s portfolio as of December 31, 2015. For the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Company had a net realized loss of $397,000 and a net unrealized loss of $5,959,000. For the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company had a net realized loss of $83,000 and a net unrealized loss of $1,461,000. Gains and losses on marketable securities may fluctuate significantly from period to period in the future and could have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations. However, the amount of gain or loss on marketable securities for any given period may have no predictive value and variations in amount from period to period may have no analytical value. For a more detailed description of the composition of the Company’s marketable securities see the Marketable Securities section below.

During the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company performed an impairment analysis of its other investments and determined that its investments had an other than temporary impairment and recorded impairment losses of $287,000 in the current quarter. There were no such losses in the prior year comparable period.
The Company and its subsidiaries, Portsmouth and Santa Fe, compute and file income tax returns and prepare discrete income tax provisions for financial reporting. The income tax benefit during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 represents primarily the income tax effect of the pre-tax loss at InterGroup and Portsmouth’s pretax loss which includes its share in net loss of the Hotel.
Six Months Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to the Six Months Ended December 31, 2014
The Company had a net loss of $4,417,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to a net loss of $1,512,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in the net loss is primarily attributable to the higher net loss on marketable securities primarily as the result of the decrease in the market value of the Company’s holdings in common stock of Comstock Mining, Inc., partially offset by the gain on the sale of real estate recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2014 and to a lesser extent by the higher income from Hotel operations in the current six month period.
The Company had net income from hotel operations of $511,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to a net loss of $118,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. Hotel revenues remained relatively consistent for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year while operating expenses decreased.

Food and beverage revenue decreased by $138,000 as the result of lower catering and banquet services from groups.
Operating expenses decreased by $709,000 compared to the prior comparable period primarily due to reduced royalty fees per the new Hilton franchise agreement and the decrease in legal expenses as the result of coming closer to a settlement of the current litigation.

(“Comstock” – OTCBB: LODE) 7 1/2% Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “A-1 Preferred”) to common stock on August 27, 2015.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
The Company’s cash flows are primarily generated from its Hotel operations, and general partner management fees, its real estate operations and from the investment of its cash in marketable securities and other investments.
On December 18, 2013, the Partnership completed an Offer to Redeem any and all limited partnership interests not held by Portsmouth. As a result, Portsmouth, which prior to the Offer to Redeem owned 50% of the then outstanding limited partnership interests now controls approximately 93% of the voting interest in Justice and is now its sole General Partner.
To fund redemption of limited partnership interests and to repay the prior mortgage, Justice obtained a $97,000,000 mortgage loan and a $20,000,000 mezzanine loan. The mortgage loan is secured by the Partnership’s principal asset, the Hotel. The mortgage loan initially bears an interest rate of 5.28% per annum and matures in January 2024. As additional security for the mortgage loan, there is a limited guaranty executed by the Company in favor of mortgage lender. The mezzanine loan is a secured by the Operating membership interest held by Mezzanine and is subordinated to the Mortgage Loan. The mezzanine loan initially bears interest at 9.75% per annum and matures in January 2024. As additional security for the mezzanine loan, there is a limited guaranty executed by the Company in favor of mezzanine lender.
On July 2, 2014, the Partnership obtained from the Intergroup Corporation (parent company of Portsmouth) an unsecured loan in the principal amount of $4,250,000 at 12% per year fixed interest, with a term of 2 years, payable interest only each month. Intergroup received a 3% loan fee. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The proceeds of the loan were applied to the July 2014 payments to Holdings described in Note 2 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015. The loan was eliminated in consolidation.
Despite an uncertain economy, the Hotel has continued to generate strong revenue growth. While the debt service requirements related the new loans and the ongoing legal dispute with some of the former Justice partners, may create some additional risk for the Company and its ability to generate cash flows in the future, management believes that cash flows from the operations of the Hotel and the garage will continue to be sufficient to meet all of the Partnership’s current and future obligations and financial requirements. Management also believes that there is sufficient equity in the Hotel assets to support future borrowings, if necessary, to fund any new capital improvements and other requirements.
In July 2015, the Company purchased residential house in Los Angeles, California as a strategic asset for $1,975,000 in cash.
Management believes that its cash, securities assets, real estate and the cash flows generated from those assets and from the partnership management fees, will be adequate to meet the Company’s current and future obligations. Additionally, management believes there is significant appreciated value in the Hotel and other real estate properties to support additional borrowings if necessary.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has no off balance sheet arrangements.

IMPACT OF INFLATION
Hotel room rates are typically impacted by supply and demand factors, not inflation, since rental of a hotel room is usually for a limited number of nights. Room rates can be, and usually are, adjusted to account for inflationary cost increases. Since the Company has the power and ability to adjust hotel room rates on an ongoing basis, there should be minimal impact on partnership revenues due to inflation. Partnership revenues are also subject to interest rate risks, which may be influenced by inflation. For the two most recent fiscal years, the impact of inflation on the Company's income is not viewed by management as material.
The Company's residential rental properties provide income from short-term operating leases and no lease extends beyond one year. Rental increases are expected to offset anticipated increased property operating expenses.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES
Critical accounting policies are those that are most significant to the presentation of our financial position and results of operations and require judgments by management in order to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The preparation of these condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to the consolidation of our subsidiaries, to our revenues, allowances for bad debts, accruals, asset impairments, other investments, income taxes and commitments and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates or our estimates may be affected by different assumptions or conditions. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the six months ended December 31, 2015. Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015 for a summary of the critical accounting policies.
