NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Portsmouth Square, Inc. (“Portsmouth” 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 Portsmouth and the notes therein included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019. The March 31, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the consolidated balance sheet as included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019.

The results of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2020.

Portsmouth’s primary business is conducted through its general and limited partnership interest in Justice Investors Limited Partnership, a California limited partnership (“Justice” or the “Partnership”).Portsmouth has a 93.3% limited partnership interest in Justice and is the sole general partner. The financial statements of Justice are consolidated with those of the Company.

As of March 31, 2020, Santa Fe Financial Corporation (“Santa Fe”), a public company, owns approximately 68.8% of the outstanding common shares of Portsmouth. Santa Fe is an 87.3%-owned subsidiary of The InterGroup Corporation (“InterGroup”), a public company. This percentage includes the power to vote an approximately 3.7% interest in the common stock in Santa Fe owned by InterGroup’s Chairman and President pursuant to a voting trust agreement entered into on June 30, 1998. InterGroup also directly owns approximately 13.5% of the common stock of Portsmouth.

Justice, through its subsidiaries Justice Operating Company, LLC (“Operating”) and Justice Mezzanine Company, LLC (“Mezzanine”) owns and operates a 544-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. Mezzanine is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership; Operating is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mezzanine. Mezzanine is the borrower under certain mezzanine indebtedness of Justice, and in December 2013, the Partnership conveyed ownership of the Hotel to Operating. 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”) through January 31, 2030.

Justice entered into a Hotel management agreement (“HMA”) with Interstate Management Company, LLC (“Interstate”) to manage the Hotel, along with its five-level parking garage, with an effective takeover date of February 3, 2017. The term of the management agreement is for an initial period of ten years commencing on the takeover date and automatically renews for successive one (1) year periods, to not exceed five years in the aggregate, subject to certain conditions. Under the terms on the HMA, base management fee payable to Interstate shall be one and seven-tenths percent (1.70%) of total Hotel revenue. On October 25, 2019, Interstate merged with Aimbridge Hospitality, North America’s largest independent hotel management firm. With the completion of the merger, the newly combined company will be positioned under the Aimbridge Hospitality name in the Americas.

Due to Securities Broker

Various securities brokers have advanced funds to the Company for the purchase of marketable securities under standard margin agreements. These advanced funds are recorded as a liability.

Obligations for Securities Sold

Obligation for securities sold represents the fair market value of shares sold with the promise to deliver that security at some future date and the fair market value of shares underlying the written call options with the obligation to deliver that security when and if the option is exercised. The obligation may be satisfied with current holdings of the same security or by subsequent purchases of that security. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in the obligation are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Income Tax

The Company consolidates Justice (“Hotel”) for financial reporting purposes and is not taxed on its non-controlling interest in the Hotel. The income tax expense during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 represent the income tax effect on the Company’s pretax income which includes its share in the net income of the Hotel.

We have considered the income tax accounting and disclosure implications of the relief provided by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act enacted on March 27, 2020. The effect of tax law changes is required to be recognized either in the interim period in which the legislation is enacted or reflected in the computation of the annual effective tax rate, depending on the nature of the change. As of March 31, 2020, we evaluated the income tax provisions of the CARES Act and have determined there to be no material effect on the March 31, 2020 tax provision. We will continue to evaluate the income tax provisions of the CARES Act and monitor the tax law changes that could have income tax accounting and disclosure implications.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

Historically, our cash flows have been primarily generated from our Hotel operations. However, management expects that the ongoing length and severity of the economic downturn, resulting from the continuing and uncertain impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, liquidity and financial results. As a result of our Hotel’s material decrease in occupancy and average daily rate, we expect our cash flow from operations to continue to be significantly lower than historical rates for the foreseeable future, until the pandemic resolves, and hotel occupancies return to historical rates.

We have taken several steps to preserve capital and increase liquidity, including the implementation of various cost saving initiatives at our Hotel. For further discussion, see “Item 2 - Negative Effects of COVID-19 on our Business” included in this Quarterly Report. We may also receive cash generated from the investment of our cash and marketable securities, other investments, and other sources, including financing from our parent companies, Santa Fe and InterGroup. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, in order to increase its liquidity positions and take advantage of the favorable interest rate environment, InterGroup refinanced its 151-unit apartment complex in Parsippany, New Jersey, generating net proceeds of approximately $6,814,000. InterGroup is also currently refinancing two of its California properties scheduled to close in June and July 2020, and it could refinance additional multifamily properties should the need arise; however, InterGroup does not deem it necessary at this time. InterGroup has an uncollateralized $8,000,000 revolving line of credit from CIBC Bank USA (“CIBC”) of which $5,000,000 is available to be drawn down as of June 18, 2020, should additional liquidity be necessary.

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $17,457,000 which included $11,550,000 of restricted cash held by our Hotel senior lender Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Lender”). Of the total restricted cash, $7,977,000 was held for furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”) reserves and $2,432,000 was held for a possible future property improvement plan (“PIP”) request by our franchisor, Hilton. However, Hilton has confirmed that it will not require a PIP for our Hotel until relicensing which shall occur at the earlier of (i) January 2030, which is six years after the maturity date of our current senior and mezzanine loans, or (ii) upon the sale of our Hotel. Therefore, Justice is currently in discussions with the Lender to release the PIP deposits to the Hotel and to allow the Hotel to utilize some or all of its FF&E reserves to fund operating expenses as well as debt service. Additionally, Justice has requested to temporarily pay interest only on the senior mortgage and the suspension of the monthly FF&E reserve installment, for a combined monthly savings in cash flow of approximately $321,000. Justice anticipates a resolution with the Lender in regard to the aforementioned requests before June 30, 2020.

On April 9, 2020, Justice entered into a loan agreement (“SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA under the recently enacted CARES Act administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Justice received proceeds of $4,719,000 from the SBA Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, Justice will use the proceeds from the SBA Loan primarily for payroll costs. The SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on April 9, 2022 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. New guidance on the criteria for forgiveness continues to be released.  

We may also have financing availability, upon the authorization of the respective board of directors, to borrow from InterGroup to meets our obligations during the next twelve months and beyond, should the need arise.

We cannot presently estimate the full financial impact of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic on our business or predict the related federal, state and local civil authority actions, which are highly dependent on the severity and duration of the pandemic, but we expect that the COVID-19 closures and other imposed restrictions will continue to have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations. Due to the uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the indeterminate length of time it will affect the hospitality industry, we have taken proactive measures to secure our liquidity position to be able to meet our obligations for the foreseeable future, including implementing strict cost management measures to eliminate non-essential expenses, postponing capital expenditures, renegotiating certain reoccurring expenses, and temporarily closing certain hotel services and outlets.

Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating and other expenditures, including management and franchise fees, corporate expenses, payroll and related costs, taxes, interest and principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, and repairs and maintenance of the Hotel. The Company has invested in short-term, income-producing instruments and in equity and debt securities when deemed appropriate. The Company’s marketable securities are classified as trading with unrealized gains and losses recorded through the consolidated statements of operations.

Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities and capital improvements of the Hotel. We will continue to finance our business activities primarily with existing cash, including from the activities described above, and cash generated from our operations. After considering our approach to liquidity and accessing our available sources of cash, we believe that our cash position, after giving effect to the transactions discussed above, will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for operating and other expenditures, including corporate expenses, payroll and related benefits, taxes and compliance costs and other commitments, for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements, even if current levels of low occupancy were to persist. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain existing leverage levels and the availability of liquidity, while minimizing operational costs. We believe that our cash on hand, cash provided by the SBA loan, along with other potential aforementioned sources of liquidity that management may be able to obtain, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, as well as our capital lease and debt obligations for at least the next twelve months and beyond. However, there can be no guarantee that management will be successful with its plan.

The following table provides a summary as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s material financial obligations which also including interest payments:

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11,Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. ASU 2018-11 provides entities another option for transition, allowing entities to not apply the new standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. Effective July 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02 using the modified retrospective approach provided by ASU 2018-11. We elected certain practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, including the election to carryforward historical lease classification. We also elected the short-term lease practical expedient, which allowed us to not recognize leases with a term of less than twelve months on our consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we elected the lease and non-lease components practical expedient, which allowed us to calculate the present value of the fixed payments without performing an allocation of lease and non-lease components. We did not record any operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities upon adoption of the new standard as the aggregate value of the ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are immaterial relative to our total assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2019. The standard did not have an impact on our other finance leases, statements of operations or cash flows. See Note 3 and Note 10 for balances of finance lease ROU assets and liabilities, respectively.

On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in the timelier recognition of losses. ASU No. 2016-13 will be effective for us as of January 1, 2023. The Company is currently reviewing the effect of ASU No. 2016-13.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE

The following table present our revenues disaggregated by revenue streams.

Performance obligations

We identified the following performance obligations for which revenue is recognized as the respective performance obligations are satisfied, which results in recognizing the amount we expect to be entitled to for providing the goods or services:

Hotel revenue primarily consists of hotel room rentals, revenue from accommodations sold in conjunction with other services (e.g., package reservations), food and beverage sales and other ancillary goods and services (e.g., parking). Revenue is recognized when rooms are occupied or goods and services have been delivered or rendered, respectively. Payment terms typically align with when the goods and services are provided. For package reservations, the transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations within the package based on the estimated standalone selling prices of each component.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an expected length of one year or less. Due to the nature of our business, our revenue is not significantly impacted by refunds. Cash payments received in advance of guests staying at our hotel are refunded to hotel guests if the guest cancels within the specified time period, before any services are rendered. Refunds related to service are generally recognized as an adjustment to the transaction price at the time the hotel stay occurs or services are rendered.

Contract assets and liabilities

We do not have any material contract assets as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, other than trade and other receivables, net on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our receivables are primarily the result of contracts with customers, which are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects our estimate of amounts that will not be collected.

We record contract liabilities when cash payments are received or due in advance of guests staying at our hotel, which are presented within accounts payable and other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities decreased to $404,000 as of March 31, 2020, from $1,215,000 as of June 30, 2019. The decrease for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily driven by $811,000 revenue recognized that was included in the advanced deposits balance as of June 30, 2019.

Contract costs

We consider sales commissions earned to be incremental costs of obtaining a contract with our customers. As a practical expedient, we expense these costs as incurred as our contracts with customers are less than one year.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT IN HOTEL, NET

Investment in hotel consisted of the following as of:

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE

In August 2007, the Company agreed to acquire 50% interest in InterGroup Uluniu, Inc., a Hawaiian corporation and a 100% owned subsidiary of InterGroup, for $973,000, which represents an amount equal to the costs paid by InterGroup for the acquisition and carrying costs of approximately two acres of unimproved land held for development located in Maui, Hawaii. As a related-party transaction, the fairness of the financial terms of the transaction were reviewed and approved by the independent director of the Company.

NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES, NET

The Company’s investment in marketable securities consists primarily of corporate equities. The Company has also periodically invested in corporate bonds and income producing securities, which may include interests in real estate-based companies and REITs, where financial benefit could transfer to its shareholders through income and/or capital gain.

At March 31, 2020, and June 30, 2019, all of the Company’s marketable securities are classified as trading securities. The change in the unrealized gains and losses on these investments are included in earnings. Trading securities are summarized as follows:

As ofMarch 31, 2020,and June 30, 2019, approximately 43% and 24%, respectively, of the investment marketable securities balance above is comprised of the common stock of Comstock Mining, Inc. (“Comstock” - NYSE AMERICAN: LODE).

As ofMarch 31, 2020,and June 30, 2019, the Company had $3,631,000 and $5,697,000, respectively, of unrealized losses related to securities held for over one year. As of March 31, 2020, and June 30, 2019, unrealized losses related to the Company’s investment in Comstock were $3,594,000 and $5,666,000, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2020, the decrease in unrealized losses is a result of reclassing $2,266,000 net unrealized gain related to Comstock that was included in the cost basis as of June 30, 2019.

Net gains (losses) on marketable securities on the statement of operations is comprised of realized and unrealized gains (losses). Below is the composition of net gain (loss) on marketable securities for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively:

NOTE 6 – OTHER INVESTMENTS, NET

The Company may also invest, with the approval of the securities investment committee and other Company guidelines, in private investment equity funds and other unlisted securities, such as convertible notes through private placements. Those investments in non-marketable securities are carried at cost on the Company’s balance sheet as part of other investments, net of other than temporary impairment losses.

Other investments, net consist of the following:

NOTE 7 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis approximate fair value due to their short maturities (i.e., accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and other liabilities) or the nature and terms of the obligation (i.e., other notes payable and mortgage notes payable).

The assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

The fair values of investments in marketable securities are determined by the most recently traded price of each security at the balance sheet date.

Financial assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are not included in the tables above include “Other investments, net (non-marketable securities),” that were initially measured at cost and have been written down to fair value as a result of impairment. The following table shows the fair value hierarchy for these assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as follows:

For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we received distribution from other non-marketable investments of $29,000 and $35,000, respectively.

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 8 – CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows:

Restricted cash is comprised of amounts held by lenders for payment of real estate taxes, insurance, replacement and capital addition reserves for the Hotel. It also includes key money received from Interstate that is restricted for capital improvements for the Hotel.

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates in two reportable segments, the operation of the hotel (“Hotel Operations”) and the investment of its cash in marketable securities and other investments (“Investment Transactions”). These two operating segments, as presented in the consolidated financial statements, reflect how management internally reviews each segment’s performance. Management also makes operational and strategic decisions based on this same information.

Information below represents reporting segments for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Operating income from Hotel operations consists of the operation of the hotel and operation of the garage. Income (loss) from investment transactions consist of net investment gain (loss), impairment loss on other investments, net unrealized gain (loss) on other investments, dividend and interest income and trading and margin interest expense. The other segment consists of corporate general and administrative expenses and the income tax (expense) benefit for the entire Company.

NOTE 10 - RELATED PARTY AND OTHER FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

The following summarizes the balances of related party and other notes payable as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

On July 2, 2014, the Partnership obtained from InterGroup 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 extended to July 1, 2021.

Note payable to Hilton (Franchisor) is a self-exhausting, interest free development incentive note which is reduced by approximately $316,000 annually through 2030 by Hilton if the Partnership is still a Franchisee with Hilton.

On February 1, 2017, Justice entered into an HMA with Interstate to manage the Hotel with an effective takeover date of February 3, 2017. The term of the management agreement is for an initial period of 10 years commencing on the takeover date and automatically renews for an additional year not to exceed five years in aggregate subject to certain conditions. The HMA also provides for Interstate to advance a key money incentive fee to the Hotel for capital improvements in the amount of $2,000,000 under certain terms and conditions described in a separate key money agreement. The key money contribution shall be amortized in equal monthly amounts over an eight (8) year period commencing on the second (2^nd) anniversary of the takeover date. As of March 31, 2020, and June 30, 2019, balance of the key money plus accrued interest is $1,008,000 and $2,049,000, respectively, and is included in restricted cash in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized portion of the key money is included in the related party notes payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had finance lease obligations outstanding of $1,206,000. These finance leases expire in various years through 2023 at rates ranging from 4.62% to 6.25% per annum. Minimum future lease payments for assets under finance leases as of March 31, 2020 are as follows:

Future minimum principal payments for all related party and other financing transactions are as follows:

As of March 31, 2020, and June 30, 2019, the Company had accounts payable to related party of $2,243,000 and $2,122,000, respectively. These are amounts due to InterGroup and represent certain shared costs and expenses, primarily general and administrative expenses, rent, insurance and other expenses that are allocated among the Company, Santa Fe and InterGroup.

To fund the redemption of limited partnership interests and to repay the prior mortgage of $42,940,000, Justice obtained a $97,000,000 mortgage loan and a $20,000,000 mezzanine loan in December 2013. The mortgage loan is secured by the Partnership’s principal asset, the Hotel. The mortgage loan bears an interest rate of 5.275% per annum with interest only payments due through January 2017. Beginning in February 2017, the loan began to amortize over a thirty-year period through its maturity date of January 2024. Outstanding principal balance on the loan was $92,656,000 and $93,746,000 as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. As additional security for the mortgage loan, there is a limited guaranty executed by Portsmouth in favor of the mortgage lender. The mezzanine loan is secured by the Operating membership interest held by Mezzanine and is subordinated to the Mortgage Loan. The mezzanine interest only loan had an interest rate of 9.75% per annum and a maturity date of January 1, 2024. As additional security for the mezzanine loan, there is a limited guaranty executed by Portsmouth in favor of the mezzanine lender. On July 31, 2019, Mezzanine refinanced the mezzanine loan by entering into a new mezzanine loan agreement (“New Mezzanine Loan Agreement”) with Cred Reit Holdco LLC in the amount of $20,000,000. The prior Mezzanine Loan which had a 9.75% per annum interest rate was paid off. Interest rate on the new mezzanine loan is 7.25% and the loan matures on January 1, 2024. Interest only payments are due monthly. As a result of the refinance, Justice has generated $500,000 in annual interest expense savings.

Effective May 11, 2017, InterGroup agreed to become an additional guarantor under the limited guaranty and an additional indemnitor under the environmental indemnity for Justice Investors limited partnership’s $97,000,000 mortgage loan and the $20,000,000 mezzanine loan. Pursuant to the agreement, InterGroup is required to maintain certain net worth and liquidity. As of March 31, 2020, InterGroup is in compliance with both requirements. However, due to the Hotel’s current low occupancy and its negative impact on the Hotel’s cash flow, Justice Operating Company, LLC may not meet certain of its loan covenants such as the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (“DSCR”) which would trigger the creation of a lock-box by the Lender for all cash collected by the Hotel. However, such lockbox has been created and utilized from the loan inception and will be in place up to loan maturity regardless of the DSCR. Justice has not missed any of its debt service payments and does not anticipate missing any debt obligations even during these uncertain times for at least the next twelve months and beyond.

The Company’s Board of Directors is currently comprised of directors John V. Winfield, William J. Nance, John C. Love, Jerold R. Babin, and Steve Grunwald. All of the Company’s directors also serve as directors of InterGroup except for Mr. Grunwald. Messrs. Winfield and Nance also serve on the Board of Santa Fe.

John V. Winfield serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company, Santa Fe, and InterGroup. Depending on certain market conditions and various risk factors, the Chief Executive Officer, Santa Fe and InterGroup may, at times, invest in the same companies in which the Company invests. The Company encourages such investments because it places personal resources of the Chief Executive Officer and the resources of Santa Fe and InterGroup, at risk in connection with investment decisions made on behalf of the Company.

NOTE 11 – ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND OTHER LIABILITIES - JUSTICE

The following summarizes the balances of accounts payable and other liabilities -Justice as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 9, 2020, Justice entered into a loan agreement (“SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Company received proceeds of $4,719,000 from the SBA Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the Company will use proceeds from the SBA Loan primarily for payroll costs. The SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on April 9, 2022 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. New guidance on the criteria for forgiveness continues to be released.  

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On March 25, 2020, pursuant to Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 194, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Order Release No. 34-88465 (the “Order”) granting exemptions to registrants subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act Section 13(a) or 15(d) due to circumstances related to the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”). Due to the circumstances related to COVID-19, the Company has relied on the Order with respect to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) for the period ended March 31, 2020. Absent the Order, the Form 10-Q was due on May 15, 2020. The Company was unable to file the Form 10-Q on a timely basis due to delays in the preparation and final review of the Form 10-Q by the relevant parties within the Company, due in part by the attention and resources the Company has focused on addressing the severe impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations.

Negative Effects of COVID-19 on our Business

On February 25, 2020, the City of San Francisco issued the proclamation by the Mayor declaring the existence of a local emergency. The negative effects of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) on our business have been significant. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious virus, which has continued to spread, has adversely affected workforces, customers, economies and financial markets globally. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours. To mitigate the harm from the pandemic, on March 16, 2020, the City and County of San Francisco, along with a group of five other Bay Area counties and the City of Berkeley, issued parallel health officer orders imposing shelter in place limitations across the Bay Area, requiring everyone to stay safe at home except for certain essential needs. Since February 2020, several unfavorable events have unfolded causing demand for our hotel rooms to suffer including cancellations of all citywide conventions, reduction of flights in and out of the Bay Area and decline in both leisure and business travel.

In response to the decrease in demand, we have since furloughed all managers at the Hotel except for members of the executive team and continue to limit hourly staff to a minimum. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have temporarily closed all of our food and beverage outlets. We continue to implement social distancing standards to keep employees and guests safe. The full impact and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this Quarterly Report. The pandemic effectively eliminated our ability to generate any profits, due to the drastic decline in both leisure and business travel. As a result, management believes the ongoing length and severity of the economic downturn caused by the pandemic will have a material adverse impact on our future business, financial condition, liquidity and financial results for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020. We are also assessing the potential impact on the impairment analysis of our long-lived assets and the realization of our deferred tax assets.

As a result of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) signed into law on March 27, 2020, additional avenues of relief may be available to workers and families through enhanced unemployment insurance provisions and to small businesses through programs administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The CARES Act includes, among other things, provisions relating to payroll tax credits and deferrals, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credits and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. We are currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of the CARES Act. The CARES Act also established a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), whereby certain small businesses are eligible for a loan to fund payroll expenses, rent, and related costs. As described in Note 12 – Subsequent Events, on April 9, 2020, Justice entered into a loan agreement (“SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA under the CARES Act. The Company received proceeds of $4,719,000 from the SBA Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the Company will use proceeds from the SBA Loan primarily for payroll costs. The SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on April 9, 2022 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. New guidance on the criteria for forgiveness continues to be released.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company’s principal source of revenue continues to be derived from its general and limited partnership interest in the Justice Investors Limited Partnership (“Justice” or the “Partnership”) inclusive of hotel room revenue, food and beverage revenue, garage revenue, and revenue from other operating departments. Justice owns 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 (the “License Agreement”) with Hilton. The Partnership entered into the License Agreement 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 License 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.

On February 1, 2017, Justice entered into a Hotel management agreement (“HMA”) with Interstate Management Company, LLC (“Interstate”) to manage the Hotel and related facilities with an effective takeover date of February 3, 2017. The term of HMA is for an initial period of ten years commencing on the takeover date and automatically renews for an additional year not to exceed five years in aggregate subject to certain conditions. The HMA also provides for Interstate to advance a key money incentive fee to the Hotel for capital improvements in the amount of $2,000,000 under certain terms and conditions described in a separate key money agreement.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

The Company had net loss of $1,205,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to net income of $809,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The change is primarily attributable to the decrease in Hotel revenue.

The following table sets forth a more detailed presentation of Hotel operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Hotel had operating income of $1,199,000 before interest expense, depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $11,259,000 compared to operating income of $4,091,000 before interest expense, depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $15,469,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, room revenues decreased by $3,879,000, and food and beverage revenue decreased by $344,000, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. The year over year decline in both areas are result of the business interruption attributable to a variety of responses by federal, state, and local civil authority to the COVID-19 outbreak in March 2020. Revenue from garage and other operating departments increased mainly due to increase in cancellation revenue.

Total operating expenses decreased by $1,318,000 due to decrease in salaries and wages, rooms commission, credit card fees, management fees, franchise fees, and legal fees.

The following table sets forth the average daily room rate, average occupancy percentage and RevPAR of the Hotel for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

The Hotel’s revenues decreased by 27% this quarter as compared to the previous comparable quarter. Average daily rate decreased by $48, average occupancy dropped 19%, and RevPAR decreased by $92 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Investment Transactions

The Company had a net loss on marketable securities of $307,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to a net gain on marketable securities of $144,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company had a net realized loss of $192,000 and a net unrealized loss of $115,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had a net realized loss of $80,000 and a net unrealized gain of $224,000. 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.

The Company consolidates Justice (Hotel) for financial reporting purposes and is not taxed on its non-controlling interest in the Hotel. The income tax (expense) benefit during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 represents the income tax effect on the Company’s pretax income (loss) which includes its share in the net income (loss) of the Hotel.

Nine Months Ended March 31, 2020 Compared to Nine Months Ended March 31, 2019

The Company had net income of $146,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 compared to net income of $2,252,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019. The change is primarily attributable to the decrease in Hotel revenue.

Hotel Operations

Net income from Hotel operations was $1,257,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 compared to net income of $3,973,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in net income is primarily due to decrease in revenue.

The following table sets forth a more detailed presentation of Hotel operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2020, the Hotel had operating income of $8,451,000 before interest, depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $41,589,000 compared to operating income of $11,852,000 before interest, depreciation and amortization on total operating revenues of $45,276,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2020, room revenues decreased by $3,155,000 and food and beverage revenue decreased by $711,000. The year over year decline in both areas are result of the business interruption attributable to a variety of responses by federal, state, and local civil authority to the COVID-19 outbreak in March 2020. Garage revenue remained consistent year over year. Revenue from other operating departments increased by $177,000 as a result of increase in cancellation revenue.

Total operating expenses decreased by $286,000 due to decrease in management fees, rooms commission, and franchise fees.

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 nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The following table shows the composition of the Company’s marketable securities portfolio as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019 by selected industry groups.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s investment portfolio includes four equity positions. The Company holds two equity securities that are more than 10% of the equity value of the portfolio. The largest security position represents 48% of the portfolio and consists of the common stock of American Realty Investors, Inc. (NYSE: ARL), which is included in the REITs and real estate companies’ industry group. The second largest security position represents 43% of the portfolio and consists of the common stock of Comstock, which is included in the basic materials industry group.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s investment portfolio includes approximately eleven equity positions. The Company holds five equity securities that comprised more than 10% of the equity value of the portfolio. The largest security position represents 24% of the portfolio and consists of the common stock of Comstock, which is included in the basic materials industry group.

The following table shows the net loss on the Company’s marketable securities and the associated margin interest and trading expenses for the respective periods: 

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Historically, our cash flows have been primarily generated from our Hotel operations. However, management expects that the ongoing length and severity of the economic downturn, resulting from the continuing and uncertain impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, liquidity and financial results. As a result of our Hotel’s material decrease in occupancy and average daily rate, we expect our cash flow from operations to continue to be significantly lower than historical rates for the foreseeable future, until the pandemic resolves, and hotel occupancies return to historical rates.

We have taken several steps to preserve capital and increase liquidity, including the implementation of various cost saving initiatives at our Hotel. For further discussion, see “Item 2 - Negative Effects of COVID-19 on our Business” included in this Quarterly Report. We may also receive cash generated from the investment of our cash and marketable securities, other investments, and other sources, including financing from our parent companies, Santa Fe and InterGroup. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, in order to increase its liquidity positions and take advantage of the favorable interest rate environment, InterGroup refinanced its 151-unit apartment complex in Parsippany, New Jersey, generating net proceeds of approximately $6,814,000. InterGroup is also currently refinancing two of its California properties scheduled to close in June and July 2020, and it could refinance additional multifamily properties should the need arise; however, InterGroup does not deem it necessary at this time. InterGroup has an uncollateralized $8,000,000 revolving line of credit from CIBC Bank USA (“CIBC”) of which $5,000,000 is available to be drawn down as of June 18, 2020, should additional liquidity be necessary.

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $17,457,000 which included $11,550,000 of restricted cash held by our Hotel senior lender Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Lender”). Of the total restricted cash, $7,977,000 was held for furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”) reserves and $2,432,000 was held for a possible future property improvement plan (“PIP”) request by our franchisor, Hilton. However, Hilton has confirmed that it will not require a PIP for our Hotel until relicensing which shall occur at the earlier of (i) January 2030, which is six years after the maturity date of our current senior and mezzanine loans, or (ii) upon the sale of our Hotel. Therefore, Justice is currently in discussions with the Lender to release the PIP deposits to the Hotel and to allow the Hotel to utilize some or all of its FF&E reserves to fund operating expenses as well as debt service. Additionally, Justice has requested to temporarily pay interest only on the senior mortgage and the suspension of the monthly FF&E reserve installment, for a combined monthly savings in cash flow of approximately $321,000. Justice anticipates a resolution with the Lender in regard to the aforementioned requests before June 30, 2020.

On April 9, 2020, Justice entered into a loan agreement (“SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA under the recently enacted CARES Act administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Justice received proceeds of $4,719,000 from the SBA Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, Justice will use the proceeds from the SBA Loan primarily for payroll costs. The SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on April 9, 2022 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. New guidance on the criteria for forgiveness continues to be released.  

We may also have financing availability, upon the authorization of the respective board of directors, to borrow from InterGroup to meets our obligations during the next twelve months and beyond, should the need arise.

We cannot presently estimate the full financial impact of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic on our business or predict the related federal, state and local civil authority actions, which are highly dependent on the severity and duration of the pandemic, but we expect that the COVID-19 closures and other imposed restrictions will continue to have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations. Due to the uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the indeterminate length of time it will affect the hospitality industry, we have taken proactive measures to secure our liquidity position to be able to meet our obligations for the foreseeable future, including implementing strict cost management measures to eliminate non-essential expenses, postponing capital expenditures, renegotiating certain reoccurring expenses, and temporarily closing certain hotel services and outlets.

Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating and other expenditures, including management and franchise fees, corporate expenses, payroll and related costs, taxes, interest and principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, and repairs and maintenance of the Hotel. The Company has invested in short-term, income-producing instruments and in equity and debt securities when deemed appropriate. The Company’s marketable securities are classified as trading with unrealized gains and losses recorded through the consolidated statements of operations.

Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities and capital improvements of the Hotel. We will continue to finance our business activities primarily with existing cash, including from the activities described above, and cash generated from our operations. After considering our approach to liquidity and accessing our available sources of cash, we believe that our cash position, after giving effect to the transactions discussed above, will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for operating and other expenditures, including corporate expenses, payroll and related benefits, taxes and compliance costs and other commitments, for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements, even if current levels of low occupancy were to persist. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain existing leverage levels and the availability of liquidity, while minimizing operational costs. We believe that our cash on hand, cash provided by the SBA loan, along with other potential aforementioned sources of liquidity that management may be able to obtain, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, as well as our capital lease and debt obligations for at least the next twelve months and beyond. However, there can be no guarantee that management will be successful with its plan.

MATERIAL CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The following table provides a summary as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s material financial obligations which also includes interest payments:

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has no material 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 Interstate 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.

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 nine months ended March 31, 2020 except for the adoption of ASU 2016-02. Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019 for a summary of the critical accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company and therefore, we are not required to provide information required by this Item of Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in this filing is accumulated and communicated to management and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the last quarterly period

covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

During the period ending March 31, 2020, there were no pending or threatened legal actions.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, during the period ended March 31, 2020, there were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in Item 1A - “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019.

The responses by federal, state, and local civil authority to the COVID-19 pandemic has had a material detrimental impact on our business, financial results and liquidity, and such impact could worsen and last for an unknown period of time.

The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic is complex and rapidly-evolving, with governments, public institutions and other organizations imposing or recommending, and businesses and individuals implementing, restrictions on various activities or other actions to combat its spread, such as restrictions and bans on travel or transportation, limitations on the size of gatherings, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses, cancellation of events, including sporting events, conferences and meetings, and quarantines and lock-downs. The shelter-in-place, physical distancing, city closures and their consequences have dramatically reduced travel, conventions and demand for hotel rooms, which has and will continue to impact our business, operations, and financial results. The extent to which the closures impacts our business, operations, and financial results, including the duration and magnitude of such effects, will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict or assess, including the duration and scope of the closures; the negative impact it has on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on unemployment rates and consumer discretionary spending; its short and longer-term impact on the demand for travel, transient and group business, and levels of consumer confidence; our ability to successfully navigate the impacts of the closures; governments actions, businesses and individuals take in response to the closures, including limiting or banning travel; and how quickly economies, travel activity, and demand for lodging recovers after the closures subsides.

The COVID-19 closures have subjected our business, operations and financial condition to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, those discussed below:

COVID-19, and the volatile regional and global economic conditions stemming from the pandemic, as well as reactions to future pandemics or resurgences of COVID-19, could also precipitate or aggravate the other risk factors that we identify in our 2019 Form 10-K, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations (including revenues and profitability). Further, COVID-19 may also affect our operating and financial results in a manner that is not presently known to us or that we currently do not consider presenting significant risks to our operations.
