Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31,September 30, 2022
Note 1 – Organization and Background
BRT Apartments Corp. (the "Company" or "BRT"), a Maryland corporation, owns, operates and, to a lesser extent, developsholds interest in joint ventures that own multi-family properties. The Company conducts its operations to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes.
These multi-family properties may be wholly owned by usthe Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) or by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company generally contributes a significant portion of the equity. At March 31,September 30, 2022, the Company: (a) wholly owns 1121 multi-family properties located in 7eleven states with an aggregate of 2,8645,420 units and a carrying value of $326,350,000;$653,716,000; (b) has interests, through unconsolidated entities, in 21eight multi-family properties located in 8four states with an aggregate of 6,1212,781 units with a carrying value of $103,917,000 and;$40,281,000; and (c) has a 17.45% interest in a development project with a carrying value of $2,122,000.$3,500,000. BRT's equity interests in these unconsolidated entities range from 17.45% to 80%. Most of the Company's properties are located in the Southeast United States and Texas.
The Company also owns and operates various other real estate assets. At March 31,September 30, 2022, the carrying value of the other real estate assets was $1,984,000.$1,929,000.
Note 2 – Basis of Preparation
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022 and 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The consolidated audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Accordingly, these unaudited statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "Annual Report") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. For each venture, the Company evaluated the rights provided to each party in the venture to assess the consolidation of the venture. All investments in unconsolidated joint ventures have sufficient equity at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and, as a group, the holders of the equity at risk have power through voting rights to direct the activities of these ventures. As a result, none of these joint ventures are variable interest entities ("VIEs"). Additionally, as determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company does not exercise substantial operating control over these entities, and therefore the entities are not consolidated. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for their share of equity in earnings, cash contributions and distributions. The distributions to each joint venture partner are determined pursuant to the applicable operating agreement and may not be pro-rata to the percentage equity interest each partner has in the applicable venture.
The joint venture that owns a property in Yonkers, New York, was determined not to be a VIE but is consolidated because the Company has controlling rights in such entity.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Substantially all of the Company's assets are comprised of multi- family real estate assets generally leased to tenants on a one-year basis. Therefore, the Company aggregates real estate assets for reporting purposes and operates in 1one reportable segment.

Per Share Data
Basic earnings (loss) per share is determined by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such period. Net income is also allocated to the unvested restricted stock outstanding during each period, as the restricted stock is entitled to receive dividends and is therefore considered a participating security. The RSUs are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation as they are not participating securities.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock or resulted in the issuance of shares of common stock that share in the earnings of the Company. Diluted earnings per share is determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock deemed to be outstanding during such period.
In calculating diluted earnings per share, the Company includes only those shares underlying the RSUs that it anticipates will vest based on management's current estimates.estimates as of the end of the most recent quarter. The Company excludes any shares underlying the RSUs from such calculation if their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Property Disposition
On February 2, 2022 the Company sold a vacant land parcel located in Daytona, Florida for a sales price of $4,700,000, and, after closing costs, recognized a nominal gain. In 2020, we recognized an impairment charge of $3,600,000 in connection with this property. At December 31, 2021, this property was classified as held-for-sale.
Note 6 - Impairment Charges
The Company reviews each real estate asset owned, including those held through investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, for impairment when there is an event or a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
The Company measures and records impairment charges, and reduces the carrying value of owned properties, when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. For its unconsolidated joint venture investments, the Company measures and records impairment losses, and reduces the carrying value of the equity investment when indicators of impairment are present and the expected discounted cash flows related to the investment is less than the carrying value.
When the Company does not expect to recover its carrying value on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying value to fair value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. When the Company does not expect to recover its carrying value on unconsolidated joint ventures that are under contract for sale, the Company, when it is determined that the sale is probable, reduces its carrying value to its fair value.
For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022, and 2021, the Company did not record any impairment charges. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $520,000 related to its investment in the OPOP Towers and Loft properties, St Louis, MO, as the carrying value exceeded the fair value by that amount. The fair value was based upon the contractual price of the sale agreement which closed in November 2021.
Note 7 - Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents funds held for specific purposes and are therefore not available for general corporate purposes. The restricted cash reflected on the consolidated balance sheets represents funds that are held by the Company specifically for capital improvements at certain multi-family properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements
Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable (included in other assets), accounts payable and accrued liabilities: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for these instruments approximate their fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.
Junior subordinated notes: At March 31,September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of the notes is lower than their carrying value by approximately $8,150,000$6,772,000 and $8,296,000, respectively, based on a market interest rate of 4.30%6.78% and 4.21%, respectively.
Mortgages payable: At March 31,September 30, 2022, the estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is lower than their carrying value by approximately $36,739,000,$37,083,000, assuming market interest rates between 3.92%5.13% and 4.67%6.18%. At December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of the Company's mortgages payable was greater than their carrying value by approximately $511,000, assuming market interest rates between 3.12% and 3.87%. Market interest rates were determined using rates which the Company believes reflects institutional lender yield requirements at the balance sheet dates.
Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value.
Non-recurring fair value measurements
The Company reviews each investment in real estate and joint venture interests when events or circumstances change, indicating the carrying value of the investment may not be recoverable. In the evaluation of an investment for impairment, many factors are considered, including estimated current and expected cash flows from the asset during the projected hold period, costs necessary to extend the life of the asset, expected capitalization rates, projected stabilized net operating income, and the ability to hold or dispose of the asset in the ordinary course of business.
Note 12 – Derivative Financial Instruments
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company's objective in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
As of March 31,September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

Note 13 – New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, lease, derivatives and other contracts. This guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company has elected to apply hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.
Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company and/or its subsidiaries are parties to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, and in particular, personal injury claims involving the operations of the Company's properties. Although management believes that the primary and umbrella insurance coverage maintained with respect to such properties is sufficient to cover claims for compensatory damages, many of these personal injury claims also assert claims for exemplary (i.e punitive) damages. Generally, insurance does not cover claims for exemplary damages.
The Company is one of several defendants in a wrongful death lawsuit seeking an unspecified amount in excess of $1,000,000 and an unspecified amount of exemplary damages. The Company’s primary insurance carrier is defending the claim. Although management is not able to determine the probability and/or magnitude of any potential loss, if any, management believes the Company has sufficient primary and umbrella insurance to cover the claim for compensatory damages.
In connection with a mediation conducted subsequent to September 30, 2022, the parties to a personal injury lawsuit in which the Company is one of the defendants have agreed, subject to the signing of a definitive agreement, to a settlement pursuant to which the Company’s insurance carrier would pay the plaintiff $850,000.

Challenges and Uncertainties Presented by COVID-19as a Result of the Volatile Economic Environment
The

This uncertainty, volatility and the related causes may adversely impact us in the future. Rising inflation could have a direct materialan adverse effectimpact on our financial condition operating expenses(and results of operations; however, there were some direct negative effectsin particular, real estate operating expenses and general and administrative expense) and interest expense on our floating rate debt (e.g.i.e., our junior subordinated notes and credit facility), as these costs could increase at a rate higher than our rental and other revenue. We can provide no assurance that we were more conservative in raising rents, pursuing acquisitions and in implementing our value add program, all of which, if more aggressively pursued, may have allowed uswill be able to generate additional income).

The Federal Reserve has been raising interest rates to combat inflation and it is anticipated that rates will continue to rise throughout the pandemicremainder of 2022. Increases in interest rates on any of our business, financial condition, liquidity, resultsfloating rate debt will result in higher debt service costs and increases in our operating expenses that we are unable to pass through to our tenants will adversely affect our profitability and cash flows.

Further, due to the uncertain economic environment, we anticipate that in the near term we will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertainbe especially cautious in pursuing acquiring properties. As a result, our ability, in the near term, to grow revenue and cannotnet income through acquisitions will be predicted with confidence.adversely affected.

Real estate operating expense.
The increase is due primarily to $5.7 million from the Partner Buyouts, including $1.9 million from the Partner Buyouts completed during the three months ended September 30, 2022.
.
Interest expense.
The change is due to a:
•$2.2 million increase from the Partner Buyouts, including $1.4 million from the Partner Buyouts completed during the three months ended September 30, 2022;
•$208,000 increase due to the increase in the average outstanding balance on the credit facility to $13.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022 from no balance outstanding during the corresponding period of the prior year.
•$189,000 increase due to an increase on the interest rate on our junior subordinated debt which is based on three month LIBOR.
The increase was offset by a decrease of $375,000 due to the payoff of $46.5 million of mortgage debt since October 1, 2021.
General and administrative
The increase is due primarily to a $367,000 increase in non-cash compensation expense - specifically, increases of:
•$207,000 due to the inclusion, for the entire three months ended September 30, 2022, of the amortization expense related to the performance and market based restricted stock units (the "RSUs") granted in June 2022; and
•$160,000 due to the amortization expense related to restricted stock, including $110,000 related to the restricted stock granted in January 2022 as a result of the higher fair value of the shares granted in 2022 in comparison to the restricted stock granted in 2017.
The balance of the increase is due primarily to increased professional fees and higher levels of compensation.
Depreciation and amortization
The increase is due primarily to $6.4 million from the Partner Buyouts, including $ 2.6 million from the Partner Buyouts completed during the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Income tax provision
In the three months ended September 30, 2022, income tax provision increased to $178,000 from $31,000 in the corresponding period of the prior year due to an increase in state level taxes accrued. The increase in the accrual is the result of income generated by property sales in the current period and the unavailability of net operating loss carryforwards available in certain states to offset such income.
Gain on sale of real estate
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, we sold a cooperative apartment in New York, NY for a sales price of $545,000 and recognized a gain of $414,000 on the sale. There was no comparable gain in the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require funds to pay operating expenses and debt service obligations, acquire properties (including the acquisition of interests of our joint venture partners) , make capital and other improvements, fund capital contributions, pay dividends and, to the extent we deem appropriate, reduce, other than in the ordinary course, our indebtedness over time. Generally, our primary sources of capital and liquidity are the operations of our multi-family properties (including distributions from the operations of our multi-family joint ventures and distributions from sale transactions), mortgage debt financings and re-financings, our share of the proceeds from the sale of properties, the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our at-the-market equity distribution program, borrowings from our credit facility and our available cash (including restricted cash).

Junior Subordinated Notes
As of March 31,September 30, 2022, $37.4 million (excluding deferred costs of $292,000)$282,000) in principal amount of our junior subordinated notes is outstanding. These notes mature in April 2036, contain limited covenants (including covenants prohibiting us from paying dividends or repurchasing capital stock if there is an event of default (as defined therein) on these notes), are redeemable at our option and bear an interest rate, which resets and is payable quarterly, of three-month LIBOR plus 200 basis points.

Credit Facility
Our credit facility with VNB New York, LLC, an affiliate of Valley National Bank (collectively, "VNB"), as amended and restated, allows us to borrow, subject to compliance with borrowing base requirements and other conditions, up to $35$60 million, (i) for the acquisition of, and investment in, multi-family properties, (ii) to repay mortgage debt secured by multi-family properties and (iii) for Operating Expenses (i.e., working capital (including dividend payments) and operating expenses); provided, that not more than $15$25 million may be used for Operating Expenses. (The facility provides that it may be expanded to provide for up to $60 million of availability if another lender(s) is willing to provide an additional $25 million of availability). The credit facility is secured by cash accounts maintained by us at VNB (and we are required to maintain substantially all of our bank accounts at VNB), and the pledge of our interests in the entities that own the unencumbered multi-family properties used in calculating the borrowing base. The credit facility bears an annual interest rate, which resets daily, of 25 basis points overequal to the prime rate, with a floor of 3.50%. There is an annual fee of 0.25% on the total amount committed by VNB and unused by us. The credit facility matures in November 2024.September 2025. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of our properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding on the facility. As of the date of this filing, no amounts areNovember 4, 2022, $19..0 million is outstanding on the credit facility and $35$41.0 million is available to be borrowed thereunder.
The terms of the credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants which, among other things, limit the incurrence of liens, require that we maintain and include in the collateral securing the facility at least twothree unencumbered properties with an
aggregate value(as calculated pursuant to the facility) of at least $50$75 million, and require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth of $140 million, the minimum amount of debt service coverage with respect to the properties (and amounts drawn on the credit facility) used in calculating the borrowing base. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of wholly-owned properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the credit facility.
At March 31,September 30, 2022, we were in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of the facility.
Other Financing Sources and Arrangements
At March 31,September 30, 2022, we are joint venture partners in approximately 22 unconsolidated joint ventures which own 23eight multi-family properties (includingand a development project)project, and that the distributions to us from these joint venture properties ($19.714.8 million (including $14.9$13.3 million from the sale of thea property) in the quarter ended March 31,September 30, 2022) are a materialsignificant source of our liquidity and cash flow. Further, we may be required to make significant capital contributions with respect to these properties. At March 31,September 30, 2022, these joint venture properties have a net equity carrying value of $109.4$43.8 million and are subject to net mortgage debt, which is not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet, of $534.5$247.6 million. Although BRT Apartments Corp. is not the obligor with respect to such mortgage debt, the loss of any of these properties due to mortgage foreclosure or similar proceedings would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. These joint venture arrangements have been, and we anticipate that they will continue to be, material to our liquidity and capital resource position. See note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.
Cash Distribution Policy
We have elected to be treated as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code.” To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement
that we distribute to our stockholders within the time frames prescribed by the Code at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income. Management currently intends to maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate Federal income tax on taxable income we distribute to stockholders in accordance with the Code. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to Federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify for Federal taxation as a REIT, we are subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and to Federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income (i.e., taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed by the Code).
Our net operating loss at December 31, 2021 was approximately $35.7 million; therefore,$36.0 million and we are not currently required by Code provisions relatinganticipate applying this amount to REITs to pay cash dividends to maintain our status as a REIT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on Apriloffset income generated in 2022. On October 7, 2022, we paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23$0.25 per share.
We carefully monitor our discretionary spending. Our largest recurring discretionary expenditure has been our quarterly dividend (which was $0.23$0.25 per share of common stock, or in the approximate amount of $4.3$4.7 million, for the most recent quarter). Each quarter, our board of directors evaluates the timing and amount of our dividend based on its assessment of, among other things, our short and long- term cash and liquidity requirements, prospects, debt maturities, projections of our REIT taxable income, net income, funds from operations, and adjusted funds from operations.
Application of Critical Accounting Estimates
A complete discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in our Annual Report. There have been no significant changes in such estimates since December 31, 2021.
Funds from Operations;Operations, Adjusted Funds from Operations;Operations and Net Operating Income
We disclose below funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) and net operating income ("NOI") because we believe that such metrics are a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.
We compute FFO in accordance with the “White Paper on Funds From Operations” issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities where the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, we do not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets. We compute AFFO by deducting from FFO our straight-line rent accruals, loss on extinguishment of debt, restricted stock and restricted stock unit expense, deferred mortgage costs and gain on insurance recovery. Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.
We believe that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the carrying value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.
FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP.
Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Net Operating Income, or NOI, is a non-GAAP measure of performance. NOI is used by our management and many investors to evaluate and compare the performance of our properties to other comparable properties, to determine trends at our properties and to determine the estimated fair value of our properties. The usefulness of NOI may be limited in that it does not take into account, among other things, general and administrative expense, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, casualty losses, insurance recoveries and gains or losses as determined by GAAP. NOI is a property specific performance metric and does not measure our performance as a whole.
We compute NOI, by adjusting net income (loss) to (a) add back (1) depreciation expense, (2) general and administrative expenses, (3) interest expense, (4) loss on extinguishment of debt, (5) equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures, (6) provision for taxes, (7) the impact of non-controlling interests, and (b) deduct (1) other income, (2) gain on sale of real estate, and (3) gain on insurance recoveries related to casualty loss. Other REIT’s may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REIT’s. We believe NOI provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income (loss). NOI is one of the measures we use to evaluate our performance because it (i) measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items unrelated to property operating performance and (ii) captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders as computed in accordance with GAAP to NOI of our consolidated properties for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

At September 30, the interest rate on the credit facility was 6.25% A 100 basis point increase in the raterates would increase our related interest expense by approximately $444,000 annually( of which $374,000 annuallywould be due to the change in rate on the junior subordinated notes) and a 100 basis point decrease in the raterates would decrease our related interest expense by $112,000 annually.$444,000 annually( of which $374,000 would be due to the change in the rate on the junior subordinated notes).

Based upon that evaluation, these officers concluded that as of March 31,September 30, 2022 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
There are no material changes to the status of the litigation we disclosed in our Annual Report.
From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business, and in particular, personal injury claims involving the operations of our properties. Although we believe that the primary and umbrella insurance coverage maintained with respect to our properties is sufficient to cover claims for compensatory damages, many of these personal injury claims also assert exemplary(i.e punitive) damages. Generally, insurance does not cover claims for exemplary damages and we may be adversely affected if claims for exemplary damages are asserted successfully. See Note 14 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.
