Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Operations

 

SeD Intelligent Home Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Homeownusa, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 10, 2009. On December 29, 2017, the Company acquired SeD Home Inc. (“SeD Home”) by reverse merger. SeD Home, a Delaware corporation, was formed on February 24, 2015 and was named SeD Home USA, Inc. before changing its name in May of 2015. SeD Home is principally engaged in developing, selling, managing, and leasing residential properties in the United States, and may expand from residential properties to other property types, including but not limited to commercial and retail properties. The Company is 99.99% owned by SeD Home International, Inc. (“SeD Home International”), which is wholly owned by Singapore eDevelopment Limited (“SeD Ltd”), a multinational public company listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGXST”).

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the following entities as of the reporting period ending dates and for the reporting periods as follows:

 

Name of consolidated subsidiary	State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization	Date of incorporation or formation	Attributable interest
SeD USA, LLC	Delaware	August 20, 2014	100%
150 Black Oak GP, Inc.	Texas	January 23, 2014	100%
SeD Development USA, Inc.	Delaware	March 13, 2014	100%
150 CCM Black Oak Ltd.	Texas	March 17, 2014	100%
SeD Ballenger, LLC	Delaware	July 7, 2015	100%
SeD Maryland Development, LLC	Delaware	October 16, 2014	83.55%
SeD Development Management, LLC	Delaware	June 18, 2015	85%
SeD Builder, LLC	Delaware	October 21, 2015	100%
SeD Texas Home, LLC	Delaware	June 16, 2015	100%
SedHome Rental, Inc	Texas	December 19, 2018	100%
SeD REIT Inc.	Maryland	August 20, 2019	100%

 

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Non–controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in the Company’s subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity relating to the non–controlling interest.

 

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the aggregate non-controlling interest in SeD Home, Inc. was $2,516,944 and $2,887,328, respectively, which is separately disclosed on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

On December 29, 2017, the Company, SeD Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), SeD Home, Inc. (“SeD Home”), a Delaware corporation, and SeD Home International, Inc., a Delaware corporation entered into an Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Reverse Merger”) pursuant to which the Merger Sub was merged with and into SeD Home, with SeD Home surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The closing of this transaction (the “Closing”) also took place on December 29, 2017 (the “Closing Date”). Prior to the Closing, SeD Home International, Inc. was the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of SeD Home and was also the owner of 99.96% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. The Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of SeD Home from SeD Home International, Inc. in exchange for issuing to SeD Home International, Inc. 630,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, SeD Home International, Inc. remains the Company’s largest shareholder, and the Company is now the sole shareholder of SeD Home. The Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the Board of Directors of each of the Company, the Merger Sub, SeD Home International, Inc., and SeD Home. The Agreement is considered a business combination of companies under common control and therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of both companies.

 

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

The unaudited financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations for the periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed on May 20, 2019. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2019.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company's significant estimates are the valuation of real estate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to the common stockholders by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Fully diluted loss per share is computed similarly to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There were no potentially dilutive financial instruments issued or outstanding for the periods ended September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying amount of the Company’s short-term financial instruments approximates fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

Restricted Cash

 

As a condition to the loan agreement with the Union Bank (formerly known as Xenith Bank, f/k/a The Bank of Hampton Roads), the Company was required to maintain a minimum of $2,600,000 in an interest-bearing account maintained by the lender as additional security for the loan. The funds were required to remain as collateral for the loan until the loan is paid off in full. As of December 31, 2018, the loan balance was $13,899. The loan was fully paid off in January 2019 and the collateral was released on April 19, 2019.

 

On April 17, 2019, SeD Maryland Development, LLC entered into a Development Loan Agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T Bank”). Based on the agreement, SeD Maryland Development is required to maintain a minimum balance of $2,600,000 as a security collateral fund in the interest-bearing account maintained by the lender. As part of the agreement, NVR deposits funds to M&T Bank directly from lot sales and keeps any overpayment to apply to future borrowings. On September 30, 2019, the total restricted cash held by M&T Bank was $6,642,682.

 

 

On July 20, 2018, Black Oak LP received $4,592,079 of district reimbursement for previous construction costs incurred in land development. Of this amount, $1,650,000 will remain on deposit in the District’s Capital Projects Fund for the benefit of Black Oak LP and will be released upon receipt of the evidence of: (a) the execution of a purchase agreement between Black Oak LP and a home builder with respect to the Black Oak development and (b) the completion, finishing and readying for home construction of at least 105 unfinished lots in the Black Oak development. The restricted cash balance on September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $406,541 and $1,203,256, respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable include all receivables from buyers, contractors and all other parties. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of the outstanding receivables, historical collection information and economic conditions. No allowance was necessary at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

Property and Equipment and Depreciation

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over the estimated useful lives, which are 3 years.

 

Real Estate Assets

 

Real estate assets are recorded at cost, except when real estate assets are acquired that meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” which acquired assets are recorded at fair value. Interest, property taxes, insurance and other incremental costs (including salaries) directly related to a project are capitalized during the construction period of major facilities and land improvements. The capitalization period begins when activities to develop the parcel commence and ends when the asset constructed is completed. The capitalized costs are recorded as part of the asset to which they relate and are reduced when lots are sold.

 

The Company capitalized interest from related party borrowings of $79,662 and $323,644 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company capitalized interest from the third-party borrowings of $3,822 and $242,412 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company capitalized interest from related party borrowings of $0 and $97,081 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company capitalized interest from the third-party borrowings of $0 and $40,193 for the three months ended on September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

A property is classified as “held for sale” when all of the following criteria for a plan of sale have been met:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When all of these criteria are met, the property is classified as “held for sale”. “Real estate held for sale” includes the El Tesoro project only.

   

In addition to our annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360, the Company applies a fair value based impairment test to the net book value assets on an annual basis and on an interim basis, if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred. Based on estimated discounted future cash flows, on September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an additional $4,725,275 of impairment on Black Oak net book value. No impairment was recorded on other projects.

 

On October 12, 2018, 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. entered into an Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale Agreement for 124 lots. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale Agreement, the purchase price remained $6,175,000. 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. was required to meet certain closing conditions and the timing for the closing was extended. On January 18, 2019, the sale of 124 lots at the Company’s Black Oak project in Magnolia, Texas was completed. After allocating costs of revenue to this sale, we had approximately $2.4 million loss from this sale and recognized approximately $2.4 million as the impairment of real estate in 2018.

  

Revenue Recognition

 

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which we determine revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires us to apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process for the revenue recognition of our Ballenger and Black Oak projects, which were essentially all of the revenue of the Company in 2019 and 2018, is as follows:

 

 

The Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices, timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.

 

  

Performance obligations of the Company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.

 

  

The transaction price is fixed and specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved by both parties.

 

  

 

Each lot or a group of lots is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated to.

 

 

The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations once title is transferred.

 

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities:

 

Based on our contracts, we invoice customers once our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. We disclose receivables from contracts with customers separately in the statement of financial position.

 

Cost of Sales:

 

Land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.

 

If allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project.

 

Income Taxes:

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss and credit carry-forwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted tax rates. The differences relate primarily to net operating loss carryforward from date of acquisition and to the use of the cash basis of accounting for income tax purposes. The Company records an estimated valuation allowance on its deferred income tax assets if it is more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

  

The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The Company’s tax returns for 2018, 2017 and 2016 remain open to examination.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18), which requires that restricted cash and cash equivalents be included as components of total cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and a retrospective transition method is required. This guidance did not impact financial results, but resulted in a change in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents within the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance in the current period condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

 

On February 25, 2016, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). From January 25, 2018 to July 30, 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-01, 2018-10 and 2018-11 to clarify and specify some contents in ASU 2016-02. The new leasing standard presents dramatic changes to the balance sheets of lessees. Lessor accounting is updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. The standard had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, but did not have an impact on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2019 and the balance of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019 was $161,065 and $174,940, respectively. As a lessor of one home on leasing, this standard does not have material impact on the Company. The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2019 was $105,339 and $112,233, respectively. Adoption of the standard had no impact to net cash from or used in operating, investing, or financing activities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain the option will be exercised. In general, we are not reasonably certain to exercise such options. We recognize lease expense for minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities for lease agreements with terms less than 12 months.

 

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Amendments to SEC paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 118.” ASU 2018-05 amends the Accounting Standards Codification to incorporate various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB 118, which addresses the application of generally accepted accounting principles in situations when a registrant does not have necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computation) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Revenue

 

Revenue was $4,938,018 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $7,790,646 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Revenue was $21,509,198 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $14,009,668 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase in revenue is attributable to the Company having an increase in property sales from the Ballenger Project and first sale of a section of Black Oak Project. Pursuant to a lot purchase agreement dated July 3, 2018, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd sold 124 lots located in the Company’s Black Oak project to Houston LD, LLC for a total purchase price of $6,175,000.

 

We anticipate a higher revenue from sales in 2019 comparing with 2018. Builders are required to purchase minimum numbers of lots based on sales agreements we entered into with them. We recognized revenue from the sale of lots to builders. We do not build any houses ourselves at the present time.

 

Rental income decreased from $4,365 in the three months ended September 30, 2018, to $0 in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Rental income increased from $4,365 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $8,730 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is due to the rent income from one home remaining in the El Tesoro project. Rent agreement expired on June 30, 2019 and was not renewed.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating Expenses increased to $9,292,586 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $6,818,475 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This increase is caused by impairment recorded on Black Oak Project’s net book value in the amount of $4,725,275. Costs of sales decreased from $6,574,977 in the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $4,353,898 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 due to decreased sales. Operating expenses increased to $25,044,579 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $12,882,697 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was caused by increased costs relating to increased sales and the impairment recorded. The general and administrative expenses decreased from $738,200 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $700,158 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

 

The gross margin increased from $1,865,171 to $1,890,052 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Our Ballenger project gross margin increased from $2,422,969 to $2,684,372 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively, due to the increase in the sales. Black Oak project sale in January 2019 broke even after we recognized $2,404,547 impairment of real estate in 2018 for this sale. We booked additional $4,725,275 impairment of real estate in Black Oak project on September 30, 2019.

 

Net Income

 

In the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had net loss of $4,345,136 compared to net income of $1,100,425 in the three months ended September 30, 2018. In the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had net loss of $3,496,322 compared to a net income of $1,347,759 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The loss was caused by the impairment of $4,725,275 recorded on Black Oak Project’s net book value.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our real estate assets have decreased to $23,383,995 as of September 30, 2019 from $41,359,998 as of December 31, 2018. This decrease is a result of the sale of lots during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as well as impairment recorded on Black Oak project.

  

Our liabilities declined from $13,733,045 at December 31, 2018 to $4,389,207 at September 30, 2019. Our total assets have decreased to $32,615,752 as of September 30, 2019 from $46,196,162 as of December 31, 2018 due to the decrease of the real estate assets and land value impairment recorded.

 

As of September 30, 2019, we had cash of $1,844,176 compared to $715,754 as of December 31, 2018. Our Ballenger Revolver loan from Union Bank has been fully paid off. Our loan from M&T Bank is also $0 and the credit limit is $8 million as of September 30, 2019. On December 31, 2018, the revolver loan balance with Union Bank was $13,899 and credit limit was $11 million.

 

Currently the Black Oak project does not have any financing from third parties. The future development timeline of Black Oak is based on multiple conditions, including the amount of funds which may be raised from capital markets, the loans from third party financial institutions, and government reimbursements which may be received. The development will be step by step and expenses will be contingent on the amount of funding we will receive.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cash provided by operating activities was $10.7 million compared to cash of $11.6 million provided in the nine months end September 30, 2018. The sales of the Ballenger and Black Oak lots in the nine months of 2019 are the main reason of the cash provided in the operating activities. With the completion of the part of phase one of Black Oak project, development speed was adjusted. The Company’s development funding conditions and development costs went down as well. The Ballenger project's development spending also went down in the nine months of 2019 compared with the same period in 2018 because of the different development stages.

This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed on May 20, 2019. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31,2018 was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2019.

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s significant estimates are the valuation of real estate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

 

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. The adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which we determine revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires us to apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process for the revenue recognition of our Ballenger and Black Oak projects, which were essentially all of the revenue of the Company in 2019 and 2018, is as follows:

 

 

 

The Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices, timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.

 

 

Performance obligations of the company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.

 

 

The transaction price is fixed and specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved by both parties.

 

 

 Each lot or a group of lots is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated to.

 

 

The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations once title is transferred.

 

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities:

 

Based on our contracts, we invoice customers once our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. We disclose receivables from contracts with customers separately in the statement of financial position.

 

Cost of Sales:

 

Land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.

 

If allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project.

 

 

Real Estate Assets

 

Real estate assets are recorded at cost, except when real estate assets are acquired that meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” which acquired assets are recorded at fair value. Interest, property taxes, insurance and other incremental costs (including salaries) directly related to a project are capitalized during the construction period of major facilities and land improvements. The capitalization period begins when activities to develop the parcel commence and ends when the asset constructed is completed. The capitalized costs are recorded as part of the asset to which they relate and are reduced when lots are sold.

 

 

The Company capitalized interest from related party borrowings of $79,662 and $323,644 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company capitalized interest from the third-party borrowings of $3,822 and $242,412 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

A property is classified as “held for sale” when all of the following criteria for a plan of sale have been met:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When all of these criteria are met, the property is classified as “held for sale”. “Real estate held for sale” includes the El Tesoro project only.

   

In addition to our annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360, the Company applies a fair value based impairment test to the net book value assets on an annual basis and on an interim basis if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred.

 

On October 12, 2018, 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. entered into an Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale Agreement for 124 lots. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale Agreement, the purchase price remained $6,175,000, 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. was required to meet certain closing conditions and the timing for the closing was extended. On January 18, 2019, the sale of 124 lots in Magnolia, Texas was completed. After allocating costs of revenue to this sale, we had approximately $2.4 million loss from this sale and recognized approximately $2.4 million as the impairment of real estate in 2018.

 

On September 30, 2019, the Company recorded an additional $4,725,275 of impairment on Black Oak net book value. No impairment was recorded on other projects.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(b) Changes in the Company’s Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
