NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. | Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Organization
Presidential Realty Corporation (“Presidential” or the “Company”), is operated as a self-administrated, self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”). The Company is engaged principally in the ownership of income producing real estate. Presidential operates in a single business segment, investments in real estate related assets.
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern Considerations
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability, and to increase working capital by raising capital through debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the respective periods have been reflected. These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed on March 25, 2015.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Presidential Realty Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Rental Revenue Recognition
The Company acts as lessor under operating leases. Rental revenue is recorded on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs. Recognition of rental revenue is generally discontinued when the rental is delinquent for ninety days or more, or earlier if management determines that collection is doubtful.

1. | Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company assesses the collectability of amounts due from tenants and other receivables, using indicators such as past-due accounts, the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history and the ability of the tenant or debtor to meet its payment obligations. Management’s estimate of allowances for doubtful accounts is subject to revision as these factors change. Rental revenue is recorded on the accrual method and rental revenue recognition is generally discontinued when the tenant in occupancy is delinquent for ninety days or more. Bad debt expense is charged for vacated tenant accounts and subsequent receipts collected for those receivables will reduce bad debt expense. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, allowance for doubtful accounts for continuing operations relating to tenant obligations was $734 and $9,835, respectively.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share data is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding (excluding non-vested shares) during each year. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, including the dilutive effect, if any, of non-vested shares. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the weighted average shares outstanding as used in the calculation of diluted loss per share do not include 740,000, of outstanding stock options and 1,700,000 of outstanding warrants as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Cash
Cash includes cash on hand, cash in banks and cash in money market funds.
Management Estimates
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of income and expense for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the guidance of the recognition of current and deferred income tax accounts, including accrued interest and penalties, in accordance with ASC 740-10-25. Under this guidance, if the Company’s tax positions in relation to certain transactions were examined and were not ultimately upheld, the Company would be required to pay an income tax assessment and related interest. Alternatively, the Company could elect to pay a deficiency dividend to its shareholders in order to continue to qualify as a REIT and the related interest assessment to the taxing authorities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-3, to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This update requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability, consistent with the required presentation for debt discounts. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard will change the Company’s current practice of presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and will result in the reduction of total assets and total liabilities in an amount equal to the balance of unamortized debt issuance costs at each balance sheet date. Debt issuance costs are currently presented separately on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and amounted to $154,506 at September 30, 2015 and $14,195 at December 31, 2014.

3. | Investments in Joint Ventures and Partnerships |
We received a distribution from Broadway Partners Fund II in the amount of $2,750 and $86,245 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This amount is reported as investment income on the consolidated statement of operations. This investment was previously written off. The Company recognizes income received on the cash basis. The Broadway Partners Fund II distributed the majority of its assets at the end of 2014 and we do not expect any meaningful income from this investment in the future.
4. | Mortgage Debt |
a. | On June 8, 2012, we closed on a mortgage and line of credit for a combined total of $1,000,000 with Country Bank for Savings on the Mapletree Industrial Center. The mortgage was for $500,000 at a 5% interest rate, for a term of 5 years. Thereafter the interest was adjusted monthly equal to the bank’s Prime Rate, plus 1% with an interest rate floor of 5%, for a term of 15 years. We received $459,620 of net proceeds. The line of credit was for $500,000, with an interest rate of 1% over the bank’s Prime Rate. The balance outstanding at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0 and $500,000. The line of credit was due on demand. Both the mortgage and the line of credit were secured by the Mapletree Industrial Center, in Palmer, Massachusetts. The outstanding balance of the mortgage at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0 and $440,654, respectively. The mortgage and line of credit were refinanced by the new mortgage on July 28, 2015. |
b. | On July 28, 2015, Palmer-Mapletree LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) in the principal amount of $1,750,000 (the “Loan”) at an interest rate of 6.031%, in order to refinance the Mapletree Industrial Center located in Palmer, Massachusetts. $934,794 of proceeds were used to repay the existing mortgage loan and line of credit on the property. The Loan replaces Palmer-Mapletree’s prior loan agreement and mortgage on the Mapletree Property which was entered into on June 8, 2012 with Country Bank for Savings. $123,757 of the loan proceeds was set aside for capital improvements and reserves for the property. We received net proceeds of $585,125. The Loan matures on August 5, 2025 and requires monthly payments of $11,308. The outstanding balance of the loan at September 30, 2015 was $1,747,780. The Company is required to maintain certain Financial Covenants. The Company was in compliance with the covenants at September 30, 2015. |

5. | Income Taxes |
Presidential has elected to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code. A REIT which distributes at least 90% of its real estate investment trust taxable income to its shareholders each year by the end of the following year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders.
ASC 740 prescribes a more likely than not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken. If the Company’s tax position in relation to a transaction was not likely to be upheld, the Company would be required to record the accrual for the tax and interest thereon. As of September 30, 2015 the tax years that remain open to examination by the federal, state and local taxing authorities are the 2011 – 2014 tax years and the Company was not required to accrue any liability for those tax years.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $310,000 ($.07 per share) which was all ordinary loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $239,000 ($.06 per share), which was all ordinary loss.
6. | Commitments, Contingencies and Related Parties |
A. | Commitments and Contingencies |
1) | Presidential is not a party to any material legal proceedings. The Company may, from time to time, be a party to routine litigation incidental to the ordinary course of its business. |
2) | In the opinion of management, the Company’s Mapletree property is adequately covered by insurance in accordance with normal insurance practices. |
B. | Related Parties |

2) | Other liabilities |
On May 12, 2015 the Company and three former officers entered into agreements that if the Company were to refinance the Palmer Mapletree property, then they would accept, in lieu of the deferred compensation owed to them in the amount of $563,750 a cash payment of $50,000 each for a total of $150,000 from the proceeds of the refinancing and the option to receive restricted stock upon a registered public offering of the Company’s Class B Common Stock. On July 28, 2015 the Company successfully refinanced the Palmer Mapletree LLC property and made payments of $50,000 each and issued the option agreements to each of the three former officers. The options call for the issuance of restricted stock based on number of shares valued at the public offering price equal to the balance due of $413,750. These options were valued using a monte carlo model valuation methodology. The model embodies relevant assumptions that address the features underlying these instruments. Significant assumption used in the monte carlo model were, the public offering price of the stock, the probability that a capital event will take place. The Company recorded an extinguishment gain of $228,261 based on the carrying value of the deferred compensation of $413,750 and the fair value of the options issued of $185,489.
During 2014 we paid the former officers of the Company $10,000 each or $30,000 in total in order to extend the due date of the payment from November 8, 2014 to November 8, 2016. The balance owed at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0 and $563,750, respectively and is included in other liabilities.

The property Management Agreement renewed for a one year term on November 8, 2014 and will be automatically renewable for one year terms until it is terminated by either party upon written notice.

D. | Asset Management Agreement |
On November 8, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Management Agreement with Signature pursuant to which the Company engaged Signature to oversee the Mapletree property.

The aggregate intrinsic value of the option was $0.00. The remaining options vest upon the achievement of performance milestones. Options vesting on the achievement of performance milestones will not be recognized as compensation until such milestones are deemed probable of achievement. The Company has approximately $592,000 of unrecognized compensation expense respectively, related to unvested share-based compensation awards. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, compensation expense was $0. Approximately $592,000 will vest upon the achievement of performance milestones.
On January 8, 2014, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 1,700,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.10 per share of the Company’s Class B Common Stock in exchange for the complete cancellation of $425,000 of the deferred compensation accrued under Mr. Jekogian’s prior employment agreement. The Warrant becomes exercisable only upon the expiration of six (6) months from the date of the Company’s consummation of a Capital Event and will expire five and one half years following the date it first becomes exercisable. The Warrant will also terminate if Mr. Jekogian terminates his employment and/or resigns as a director of the Company without “Good Reason” or without the consent of the Company prior to the date the Warrant becomes exercisable.
On July 28, 2015 the Company issued option agreements to each of the three former officers totaling $413,750 in exchange for the deferred compensation owed to them. The options become exercisable upon a registered public offering of not less than twenty million dollars $20,000,000, and will expire five years after the grant date. The option calls for the issuance of stock based on number of shares valued at the price established pursuant to the public offering price.

9. | Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were determined using available market information and various valuation estimation methodologies. Considerable judgment was required to interpret the effects on fair value of such items as future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. Also, the use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. However, we believe reported amounts approximate fair value.

Overview
Presidential is a Delaware corporation organized in 1983 to succeed to the business of a company of the same name which was organized in 1961 to succeed to the business of a closely held real estate business founded in 1911. Since 1982, we have elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for Federal and State income tax purposes. We own, directly or indirectly, interests in real estate and interests in entities which own real estate.
We outsource the management of the Mapletree Industrial Center to Signature Community Management.
We obtain funds for working capital and investment from our available cash, operating activities and refinancing of mortgage loans on our real estate.
On July 28, 2015, Palmer-Mapletree LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) in the principal amount of $1,750,000 (the “Loan”) at an interest rate of 6.031%, in order to refinance the Mapletree Industrial Center located in Palmer, Massachusetts. $934,794 of proceeds were used to repay the existing mortgage loan and line of credit on the property. The Loan replaces Palmer-Mapletree’s prior loan agreement and mortgage on Mapletree Property which was entered into on June 8, 2012 with Country Bank for Savings. $123,757 of the loan proceeds was set aside for capital improvements and reserves for the property. We received net proceeds of $585,125. The Loan matures on August 5, 2025 and requires monthly payments of $11,308. The outstanding balance of the loan at September 30, 2015 was $1,747,780.

Critical Accounting Policies
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability, and to increase working capital by raising capital through debt and or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements and disclosures. These estimates require difficult, complex and subjective judgments. Management has discussed with the Audit Committee the implementation of the critical accounting policies described below and the estimates required with respect to such policies.
Real Estate
Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions and improvements are capitalized and repairs and maintenance are charged to rental property operating expenses as incurred. Depreciation is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The useful life of each property, as well as the allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components, requires estimates by management. If management incorrectly estimates the allocation of those costs or incorrectly estimates the useful lives of its real estate, depreciation expense may be miscalculated.
The Company reviews each of its properties for impairment if events or changes in circumstances warrant. If impairment were to occur, the property would be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company assesses the recoverability of its investment in real estate based on undiscounted cash flow estimates. The future estimated cash flows of a property are based on current rental revenues and operating expenses, as well as the current local economic climate affecting the property. Considerable judgment is required in making these estimates and changes in these estimates could cause the estimated cash flows to change and impairment could occur. As of September 30, 2015, the Company’s net real estate was carried at $520,661.
Rental Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes rental revenue on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs.
Income Taxes
We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under Sections 856 to 860 of the Code. Under those sections, a REIT which meets certain requirements is not subject to Federal income tax on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders, if at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (exclusive of capital gains) is so distributed. As a result of our ordinary tax loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, there is no requirement to make a distribution for the third quarter of 2015. In addition, no provision for income taxes was required at September 30, 2015.

Three months ended September 30, 2015
Revenues increased by $14,871 for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2014, as a result of increased rental occupancy at the Mapletree Industrial Center. Occupancy was 96% as of November 2015.
Net income from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $48,771 compared to a loss of $730,326 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The change is primarily due to: (i) increased rental income of $15,599 (ii) a reduction in general and administrative expenses of approximately $53,000, which consists of decreases in professional fees and administrative salaries, (iii) the loss on deconsolidation of subsidiaries of $516,982 (iv) gain on extinguishment of debt of $228,261; offset by an increase in operating expense at the Mapletree Industrial Center primarily due to the refinancing of the mortgage and line of credit.
Nine months ended September 30, 2015
Revenues increased by $46,187 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014, as a result of increased rental occupancy at the Mapletree Industrial Center.
Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $250,322 compared to $924,832 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $674,510. The decrease was comprised of: (i) a reduction in general and administrative expenses of approximately $151,000, which consists of decreases in professional fees and administrative salaries, (ii) a decrease in stock based compensation of $123,000, (iii) increased rental income of approximately $48,000, (iv) decreases in loss on deconsolidation of subsidiaries of $516,982 (v) gain on extinguishment of debt of $228,261. This was offset by a reduction in investment income received from Broadway Partners Fund II of approximately $89,000 and other income from the sale of environmental tax credits, in the state of Massachusetts, amounting to approximately $260,000 and increased operating expense at the Mapletree Insustrial Center primarily due to the refinancing of the mortgage and line of credit.
Balance Sheet
September 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014
Net real estate decreased by $35,436 primarily as a result of depreciation expense recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 on the MapleTree Industrial Center.
13
Prepaid expenses increased by $5,853 due to an increase in property insurance on the Palmer Mapletree Industrial Center offset by the expensing of the cost of the directors and officers tail policy purchased in 2011.
Accrued liabilities increased by $119,393 primarily due to accrued salary for Nicholas W. Jekogian, CEO as required by his employment contract.
Other liabilities decreased $556,886 primarily due to $50,000 paid to each of the three former officers and the issuance of stock options for the cancelation of $413,749 of debt in connection with their deferred compensation.
Other assets increased $203,865 primarily due to $154,506 of mortgage costs for the refinancing of the Palmer Mapletree Industrial Center and increased escrow costs required by the new mortgage.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We obtain funds for working capital and investment from our available cash.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability, and to increase working capital, raising debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
At September 30, 2015, we had $590,592 in available cash, an increase of $147,979 from $442,613 available at December 31, 2014. This increase in cash and cash equivalents was due to the cash provided by the refinancing of the Mapletree Industrial Center amounting to $807,126, off-set by cash used in operating activities of $657,145 and $2,002 used in investing activities.
Operating Activities
Cash from operating activities includes interest on the Company’s mortgage portfolio and net cash received from rental property operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash received from interest and amortization on the Company’s mortgage portfolio was $605. Net cash received from rental property operations was approximately $214,500. Net cash received from rental property operations is before additions and improvements and mortgage amortization. Cash received from investment activities was $2,750 from Broadway Partners Fund II.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
