2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Investment Properties

As of January 1, 2017, theThe Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01,Business Combinations (Topic 805), which clarifies the framework for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities meets the definition of a business. The revised framework establishes a screen for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities is a business and narrows the definition of a business, which is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. As a result, all of the Company’s acquisitions that occurred in 2017 and 2018to date qualified as asset acquisitions and most of the Company’sCompany expects future acquisitions of operating properties willto qualify as asset acquisitions.  Accordingly, third-party transaction costs associated with these acquisitions have been and will be

8

capitalized, while internal acquisition costs will continue to be expensed.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 mandates that “an acquiring entity shall allocate the cost of an acquired entity to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at date of acquisition.” ASC 805 results in an allocation of acquisition costs to both the tangible and intangible assets associated with income producing real estate. Tangible assets include land, buildings, site improvements, tenant improvements and furniture, fixtures and fixtures,equipment, while intangible assets include the value of in-place leases, lease origination costs (leasing commissions and tenant improvements), legal and marketing costs and leasehold assets and liabilities (above or below market)market leases), among others.

The Company uses independent, third partythird-party consultants to assist management with its ASC 805 evaluations. The Company determines fair value based on accepted valuation methodologies including the cost, market, and income capitalization approaches. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets identified in the evaluation.

The Company records depreciation on buildings and improvements utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, generally 54 to 4042 years. The Company reviews depreciable lives of investment properties periodically and makes adjustments to reflect a shorter economic life, when necessary. Tenant allowances, tenant inducementsCapitalized leasing commissions and tenant improvements incurred and paid by the Company subsequent to the acquisition of the investment property are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Amounts allocated to buildings are depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the acquired building or related improvements.

Acquisition and closing costs are capitalized as part of each tangible asset on a pro rata basis. Improvements and major repairs and maintenance are capitalized when the repair and maintenance substantially extend the useful life, increases capacity or improves the efficiency of the asset. All other repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Assets Held for Sale

The Company reviews investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable, but at least annually. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. The Company measures any impairment of investment property when the estimated undiscounted cash flows plus its residual value, is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the Company charges to income the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. The Company estimates fair value using unobservable data such as operating income, estimated capitalization rates, or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. The Company may decide to sell properties that are held as investment properties. The accounting treatment for usethe disposal of long-lived assets is covered by ASC 360.  Under this guidance, the Company records the assets associated with these properties, and any associated mortgages payable, as held for sale when management has committed to a plan to sell the assets, actively seeks a buyer for the assets, and the consummation of the sale pricesis considered probable and is expected within one year.  Delays in the time required to complete a sale do not preclude a long-lived asset from continuing to be classified as held for sale beyond the initial one-year period if the delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond an entity’s control and there is sufficient evidence that the entity remains committed to a qualifying plan to sell the long-lived asset.  

Properties classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of these properties may differ from their carrying values.value or their fair value, less estimated costs to sell. When the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, an impairment charge is recognized. The Company determines fair value based on the three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurement.  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

During November 2023, the Company committed to a plan to sell an asset group associated with the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property that included the land, site improvements, building, building improvements and tenant improvements. As a result, as of December 1, 2023, the Company reclassified these assets, and the related mortgage payable, net, for the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property as assets held for sale and liabilities associated with assets held for sale, respectively. Under ASC 360, depreciation of assets held for sale is discontinued, so no further depreciation or amortization was recorded subsequent to December 1, 2023.  The Company believed that the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, exceeded the Company’s carrying cost, so the Company did not record any impairment adjustmentsof assets held for sale related to its properties duringthe Hanover Square Shopping Center Property for any periods, including the three months ended March 31, 2019 or2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, the periods during which the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property was classified as assets held for sale.  The Company sold the Hanover Square Shopping Center on March 31, 2018.13, 2024.

Intangible Assets and Liabilities, net

The Company determines, through the ASC 805 evaluation, the above and below market lease intangibles upon acquiring a property. Intangible assets (or liabilities) such as above or below-market leases and in-place lease value are recorded at fair value and are amortized as an adjustment to rental revenue or amortization expense, as appropriate, over the remaining terms of the underlying leases. The Company amortizes amounts allocated to tenant improvements, in-place lease assets and other lease-related intangibles over the remaining life of the underlying leases. The analysis is conducted on a lease-by-lease basis.

8

The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company did not record any impairment adjustments to its intangible assets.

Impairment

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $0 and $36,743, respectively, resulting from the events described below.  

Investment Properties

The Company reviews its investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable, but at least annually. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. The Company measures any impairment of an investment property when the estimated undiscounted cash flows plus its residual value is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the Company charges to income the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. The Company estimates fair value using unobservable data such as projected future operating income, estimated capitalization rates, or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. The Company may decide to sell properties that are held for use and the sale prices of these properties may differ from their carrying values. The Company did not record any impairment adjustments to its investment properties resulting from events or changes in circumstances during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, that would result in the projected value of the Company’s investment properties being below their carrying value.  

However, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, one tenant defaulted on its lease.  The Company determined that the carrying value of capitalized tenant improvements associated with this lease which were recorded as a component of investment properties on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets should be written off, and the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $8,655 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  This amount is included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023. No such loss on impairment was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2024.  

Intangible Assets

The Company also reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually.  During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company determined that the carrying value of certain intangible assets associated with the lease on which the tenant defaulted should

be written off and recorded a loss on impairment of $26,896.  This amount is included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  No such amounts were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024.  

Unbilled Rent

The Company also reviews the unbilled rent asset recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets for impairment to determine if any amounts may not be recoverable.  During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $1,192 related to previously recognized straight-line rent related to the defaulting tenant.  This amount is included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  No such amounts were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024.  

Conditional Asset Retirement Obligation

A conditional asset retirement obligation represents a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement depends on a future event that may or may not be withwithin the Company’s control. Currently, the Company does not have any conditional asset retirement obligations. However, any such obligations identified in the future would result in the Company recording a liability if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental studies conducted at the time the Company acquired its properties did not reveal any material environmental liabilities, and the Company is unaware of any subsequent environmental matters that would have created a material liability.

The Company believes that its properties are currently in material compliance with applicable environmental, as well as non-environmental, statutory and regulatory requirements. The Company did not record any conditional asset retirement obligation liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 20192024 and 2018,2023, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents consist primarily of bank operating accounts and money markets. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include its cash and cash equivalents and its trade accounts receivable.

Restricted cash represents (i) amounts held by the Company for tenant security deposits, (ii) escrow deposits held by lenders for real estate tax, insurance, and operating reserves and (iii) capital reserves held by lenders for investment property capital improvements.

The Company places its cash and cash equivalents and any restricted cash held by the Company on deposit with financial institutions in the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company ("FDIC"(“FDIC”) up to $250,000. The Company'sCompany’s credit loss in the event of failure of these financial institutions is represented by the difference between the FDIC limit and the total amounts on deposit. Management monitors the financial institutionsinstitutions’ credit worthiness in conjunction with balances on deposit to minimize risk. As of March 31, 2019,2024, the Company held two cash accounts at a cash accountsingle financial institution with a balancecombined balances that exceeded the FDIC limit by $255,042.$2,592,582.  As of December 31, 2018,2023, the Company held two cash accounts at a cash accountsingle financial institution with a balancecombined balances that exceeded the FDIC limit by $650,699.$1,366,872.

Tenant security deposits are restricted cash balances held by the Company to offset potential damages, unpaid rent or other unmet conditions of its tenant leases. As of March 31, 20192024 and December 31, 2018,2023, the Company reported $77,351$247,983 and $71,022,$260,898, respectively, in security deposits.

Revenue Recognition

Retail, Flex Center and STNL Property Revenues

The Company recognizes minimum rents from its retail center properties, (the Franklin Squareflex center properties and Hanover Square properties)STNL properties on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases which results in an unbilled rent asset or deferred rent liability being recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. sheets. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported $1,017,128 and $1,109,782, respectively, in unbilled rent.

The Company’s leases generally require the tenant to reimburse the Company for a substantial portion of its expenses incurred in operating, maintaining, repairing, insuring and managing the shopping center and common areas (collectively defined as Common Area Maintenance or “CAM” expenses). The Company includes these reimbursements, along with other revenue derived from late fees and seasonal events, underon the condensed consolidated statements of operations captionunder the captions "Retail center property revenues”, “Flex center property revenues”, and “Single tenant reimbursements."net lease asset revenues”.  (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements, below.) This significantly reduces the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation or other outside factors. The Company accrues reimbursements from tenants for recoverable portions of all these expenses as revenue in the period the applicable expenditures are incurred. The Company calculates the tenant’s share of operating costs by multiplying the total amount of the operating costs by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of square feet being leased by the tenant, and the denominator of which is the average total square footage of all leasable buildings at the property. The Company also receives escrow payments for these reimbursements from substantially all its tenants on a monthly basis throughout the year.

The Company recognizes differences between previously estimated recoveries and the final billed amounts in the year in which the amounts become final. Since these differences are determined annually under the leases and accrued as of December 31 in the impact onyear earned, no such revenues were recognized forduring the three months ended March 31, 2019 is not known.2024 and 2023.  

The Company recognizes lease termination fees in the period that the lease is terminated and collection of the fees is reasonably assured. Upon early lease termination, the Company provides for losses related toany unrecovered intangibles and other assets. Duringassets are written off as a loss on impairment.  (See Impairment, above.)  The Company did not receive any lease termination fees during the three months ended March 31, 20192024 and 2018, respectively, no2023.

Management Restructuring Expenses

On July 18, 2023, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into the Termination Agreement with the Manager, William R. Elliott and Thomas E. Messier, which provided for the immediate termination of the Management Agreement and, among other things, aggregate payments of $1,602,717 in settlement of all amounts payable under the Management Agreement (consisting of a $1,250,000 termination fee and the $352,717 Deferred Acquisition Fee, as defined in Note 9, below).  For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded the termination fee and other expenses associated with the Special Committee’s exploration of strategic alternatives as management restructuring expenses on its consolidated statement of operations in accordance with ASC 420-10-S99.  Specifically, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $241,450 in legal fees associated with the work of the Special Committee as management restructuring expenses.  No such termination costsexpenses were recognized.recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The Company determines an allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rents and accounts receivable based upon customer credit-worthinesscredit worthiness (including expected recovery of a claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends. The Company considers a receivable past due once it becomes delinquent per the terms of the lease. A past due receivable triggers certain events such as notices, fees and other allowable and required actions per the lease. TheAs of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s allowance for uncollectible accountsrent totaled $23,694 and $13,413, respectively, which are comprised of amounts specifically identified based on management’s review of individual tenants’ outstanding receivables.  Management determined that no additional general reserve is considered necessary as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Income Taxes

Beginning with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2017, the REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable Treasury regulations relating to REIT qualification. In order to maintain this REIT status, the regulations require the Company to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders and meet certain other asset and income tests, as well as other requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, it will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates for the years in which it fails to qualify. If the Company loses its REIT status it could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for five years unless the Company’s failure to qualify was due to reasonable cause and certain other conditions were satisfied.

Management has evaluated the effect of the guidance provided by GAAP on Accounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxes and has determined that the Company had no uncertain income tax positions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company’s Hampton Inn TRS entity generated a tax loss, so no income tax expense was recorded.

Use of Estimates

The Company has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reported period. The Company’s actual results could differ from these estimates.

Noncontrolling Interests

The ownership interests not held by the REIT are considered noncontrolling interests. There are three elements of noncontrolling interests in the capital structure of the Company. The ownership interests not held by the REIT are considered noncontrolling interests. Accordingly,These noncontrolling interests have been reported in equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets but separate from the Company’s equity. On the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amount, including both the amount attributable to the Company and noncontrolling interests. ConsolidatedThe Company’s condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity includeincludes beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for shareholders’ equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity.

Additionally, effective on January 1, 2020, 11,731 Operating Partnership Units were issued in exchange for approximately 3.45% of the noncontrolling owner’s tenant in common interest in the Hampton Inn Property, a property that was formerly owned by the Company. On August 31, 2020, a holder of Operating Partnership Units converted 665 Operating Partnership Units into shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Shares”). On January 18, 2024, the Company issued 38,697 Operating Partnership Units to Francis P.

These amendments provide additional clarification and implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Company adopted Topic 606 effective on January 1, 2019.

A majority of the Company’s tenant-related revenue from its Franklin Square Property and Hanover Square Property is recognized pursuant to lease agreements and will be governed by the leasing guidance discussed below.  The Company has evaluated its hotel revenues and concluded that the adoption of this standard did not impact the amount or timing of revenue recognition in its consolidated financial statements. The Company completed its assessment of ASU No. 2014-09 and has concluded that the guidance does not have a material impact on the Company’s method of revenue recognition or on the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).  The amendments in this update govern a number of areas including, but not limited to, accounting for leases, replacing the existing guidance in ASC No. 840, Leases.  Under this standard, among other changes in practice, a lessee’s rights and obligations under most leases, including existing and new arrangements, would be recognized as assets and liabilities, respectively, on the balance sheet.  Other significant provisions of this standard include (i) defining the “lease term” to include the non-cancelable period together with interim periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease; (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheet to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance “fixed,” (iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased asset’s economic benefits and (iv) a requirement to bifurcate certain lease and non-lease components.  The lease standard is effective for public companies forwithin fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those fiscal years) and for private companies, fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The2024, which means that the Company plans to adopt the standard effective on January 1, 2020. Management does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit lossesbe required to include the use of forward-looking information to better calculate credit loss estimates.enhanced disclosures beginning with its condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024.  The guidance will apply to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, such as accounts receivable and loans. The guidance will require that the Company estimate the lifetime expected credit loss with respect to these receivables and record allowances that, when deducted from the balance of the receivables, represent the net amounts expected tomust be collected. The Company will also be required to disclose information about how it developed the allowances, including changes in the factors that influenced the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. For public companies, the guidance will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and for private companies, periods after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flows

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The ASU provides guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows in an effort to reduce diversity in practice. The standard requires a reconciliation of total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, such as escrows and operating property reserves and property capital reserves, in the cash flow statement or in the notes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017applied retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted.  As discussed in Note 10 below, the Company has reportable segments for retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties, and it previously had a reportable segment for hotel properties.  The Company is currently evaluating the new standarddisclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07 to determine the impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Evaluation of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Earnings per share

Per Share

Basic earnings per share for the Company’s Common Shares is calculated by dividing income (loss) from continuing operations, excluding the net lossincome (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the Company’s weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders, excluding the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the weighted average number of Common Shares, including any dilutive shares. As of March 31, 20192024 and December 31, 2018, all of the2023, respectively, 14,960 and 26,691 Operating Partnership’s 125,000 common units outstandingPartnership Units held by noncontrolling, limited partners were eligible to be converted, on a one-to-one basis, into Common Shares. TheFor the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Operating Partnership’s common unitsPartnership Units and the equivalent Common Shares attributable to the conversion of the Operating Partnership Units have been excluded from the Company’s diluted earnings per share calculation because their inclusion would be antidilutive.  However, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Operating Partnership Units and the equivalent Common Shares attributable to the conversion of the Operating Partnership Units have been included in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Hampton Inn Property – Property Improvement Plan

8.      Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is obligated under the mortgage loan for the Hampton Inn Property to complete a property improvement plan which includes exterior and interior renovations and replacement of furniture and fixtures. This obligation is irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed by individual members of the Manager and by an individual member of the noncontrolling owner. The Company has entered into a series of contracts for this work with a total estimated cost of $2,648,548 and work commenced in July, 2018. These costs will be partially funded by $2,206,099 of funds held in escrow by the mortgage holder (see “Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash”, above), with the remainder being funded by the Company and the noncontrolling owner.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company incurred and paid $735,350 in costs associated with the property improvement plan. Escrows held by the mortgage holder funded $567,183 of these costs and the remainder was funded by the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company incurred and paid $1,009,452 in costs associated with the property improvement plan. Escrows held by the mortgage holder funded $604,290 of these costs and the remainder was funded by the Company. As of March 31, 2019, the Company estimates that the remaining costs to be incurred associated with this work is $903,746, all of which will be funded by the escrow balance of $1,034,626 as of March 31, 2019.

Insurance

The Company carries comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption and rental loss insurance covering all of the properties in its portfolio, in addition to other coverages that may be appropriate for certain of its properties. Additionally, the Company carries a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers such claims made against the Company and its directors and officers. The Company believes the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate for its properties given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice; however, its insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover its losses.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to risks incidental to the ownership and operation of commercial real estate. These risks include, among others, the risks normally associated with changes in the general economic climate, trends in the retail industry, creditworthiness of tenants, competition for tenants and customers, changes in tax laws, interest rates, the availability of financing and potential liability under environmental and other laws. The Company’s portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions and is geographically concentrated in the Mid-Atlantic, specifically in South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia, which represented 100 percentapproximately 99% of the total annualized base revenues of the properties in its portfolio as of March 31, 2019.2024. The Company’s geographic concentration may cause it to be more susceptible to adverse developments in those markets than if it owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Additionally, the Company’s retail shopping center property dependsproperties depend on anchor stores or major tenants to attract shoppers and could be adversely affected by the loss of, or a store closure by, one or more of these tenants.

Interest Rate Risk

The value of the Company’s real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates which may affect the Company’s ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the value of the Company’s assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, the Company attempts to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, the Company may obtain variable-rate mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate cap agreements that limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate caps are derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted interest payments on the debt obligation. Our objective in using interest rate caps is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all of the Company’s long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was capped to a fixed rate. The Company’s debt obligations are more fully described in Note 5, Loans Payable, above.

Regulatory and Environmental

As the owner of the buildings on its properties, the Company could face liability for the presence of hazardous materials (e.g., asbestos or lead) or other adverse conditions (e.g., poor indoor air quality) in its buildings. Environmental laws govern the presence, maintenance, and removal of hazardous materials in buildings, and if the Company does not comply with such laws, it could face fines for such noncompliance. Also, the Company could be liable to third parties (e.g., occupants of the buildings) for damages related to exposure to hazardous materials or adverse conditions in its buildings, and the Company could incur material expenses with respect to abatement or remediation of hazardous materials or other adverse conditions in its buildings. In addition, some of the Company’s tenants routinely handle and use hazardous or regulated substances and wastes as part of their operations at the Company’s properties, which are subject to regulation. Such environmental and health and safety laws and regulations could subject the Company or its tenants to liability resulting from these activities. Environmental liabilities could affect a tenant’s ability to make rental payments to the Company, and changes in laws could increase the potential liability for noncompliance. This may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise materially and adversely affect the Company’s operations. The Company is not aware of any material contingent liabilities, regulatory matters or environmental matters that may exist.

Seasonality

The hotel industry historically has been seasonal in nature. Seasonal variations in occupancy at the Company’s hotels may cause quarterly fluctuations in its revenues. Occupancy rates and hotel revenues for the Company’s Hampton Inn Property are highest in October, due to a local event that generates significant demand, and generally greater in the second and third quarters than in the first quarter and in November and December. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, the Company expects to utilize cash on hand or available financing sources to meet cash requirements.

Litigation

The Company is not currently involved in any litigation or legal proceedings.

Asset management fees are recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as either (i) retail center property operating expenses, (ii) hotel property operating expenses or (iii) legal, accounting and other professional fees, depending on the basis on which the asset management fee is determined.

21

The Manager also receives an acquisition fee of 2.0% of the purchase price plus transaction costs, for each property acquired or investment made on the Company’s behalf at the closing of the acquisition of such property or investment, in consideration for the Manager’s assistance in effectuating such acquisition. Acquisition fees are allocated and added to the fair value of the tangible assets acquired. Repayment of funds advanced are recorded as a reduction in outstanding accounts payable and accrued liabilities. No acquisition fees were earned or paid during the three months ended March 31, 2019 or 2018.

The Manager will be entitled to an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between (1) the product of (x) 20% and (y) the difference between (i) Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO) (as further defined below) for the previous 12-month period, and (ii) the product of (A) the weighted average of the issue price of equity securities issued in this offering and in future offerings and transactions, multiplied by the weighted average number of all shares of common stock outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (including any restricted stock units, any restricted shares of common stock and OP Units) in the previous 12-month period, exclusive of equity securities issued prior to this offering, and (B) 7%, and (2) the sum of any incentive fee paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12-month period. For purposes of calculating the incentive fee during the first years after completion of this offering, adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) will be determined by annualizing the applicable period following completion of this offering. AFFO is calculated by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. The Company further adjusts funds from operations (“FFO”) for certain items that are not added to net income in the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (NAREIT) definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of the Company’s properties, and subtract recurring capital expenditures (and, when calculating the incentive fee only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on real estate investments). No incentive fees were earned or paid during the three months ended March 31, 2019 or 2018.

In addition to the asset management fees paid to the Manager, during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company repaid the Manager $0 and $196,483 for funds advanced by the Manager on behalf of the Company.

9.Segment Information

The Company establishes operating segments at the property level and aggregates individual properties into reportable segments based on product types in which the Company has investments. As ofFor the three months ended March 31, 2019, The2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company had the following reportable segments:  retail center properties, flex center properties and hotelSTNL properties. During the periods presented, there have been no material intersegment transactions.

Although the Company’s flex center properties have tenants that are similar to tenants in its retail center properties, the Company considers its flex center properties as a separate reportable segment. Flex properties are considered by the real estate industry as a distinct subset of the industrial market segment. Flex properties contain a mix of industrial/warehouse and office spaces. Warehouse space that is not air conditioned can be used flexibly by building office or showroom space that is air conditioned, depending on tenants’ needs.  Further, although the Company’s STNL properties have tenants that are similar to tenants in its retail center properties, the Company considers its STNL properties as a separate reportable segment.  STNL properties are also considered by the real estate industry as a separate asset class.  

Net operating income ("NOI"(“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not considered a measure of operating results or cash flows from operations under GAAP. NOI is the primary performance measure reviewed by management to assess operating performance of properties and is calculated by deducting operating expenses from operating revenues. Operating revenues include rental income, tenant reimbursements, hotel income, and other property income; and operating expenses include retail center property and hotel operating costs.expenses. The NOI performance metric consists of only revenues and expenses directly related to real estate rental operations. NOI reflects property acquisitions and dispositions, occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. NOI, as the Company calculates it, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled, but differently calculated, measures for other REITs.

22

Asset information and capital expenditures by segment are not reported because the Company does not use these measures to assess performance. Depreciation and amortization expense, along with other expense and income items, are not allocated among segments.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAPaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, or different assumptions were made, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, resulting in different financial results or a different presentation of our financial statements. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider critical to an understanding of our financial condition and operating results that may require complex or significant judgment in their application or require estimates about matters which are inherently uncertain. A discussion of our significant accounting policies, including further discussion of the accounting policies described below, can be found in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting

36

Policies,” of our Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition.

Revenue Recognition

Principal components of our total revenues for our retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL revenues include base rents and tenant reimbursements. We accrue minimum (base) rent on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases which results in an unbilled rent asset or deferred rent liability being recorded on the balance sheet. Certain lease agreements contain provisions that grant additional rents based on tenants’ sales volumes (contingent or percentage rent) which we recognize when the tenants achieve the specified targets as defined in their lease agreements. We periodically review the valuation of the asset/liability resulting from the straight-line accounting treatment of our leases in light of any changes in lease terms, financial condition or other factors concerning our tenants.

Rents and Other Tenant Receivables

For our retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties, we record a tenant receivable for amounts due from tenants such as base rents, tenant reimbursements and other charges allowed under the lease terms. We periodically review tenant receivables for collectability and determine the need for an allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rents and other accounts receivable based upon customer creditworthiness (including expected recovery of a claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels and current economic trends. We consider a receivable past due once it becomes delinquent per the terms of the lease. A past due receivable triggers certain events such as notices, fees and other actions per the lease.

Accounting for Leases

For our hotel property, revenues are recognized as earned, which is generally defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel’s services.

The CompanyOur company adopted ASU No. 2014-09,Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersLeases (Topic 606)842) effective on January 1, 2019 (see Recent Accounting Pronouncements2022 using the modified retrospective approach within ASU 2018-11, which allows for the application date to be the beginning of the reporting period in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Polices,” of our Consolidated Financial Statements). This adoptionwhich the entity first applies the new standard. Our company historically has not been and is not currently a “lessee” under any lease agreements, and thus did not have a material impact onany arrangements requiring the Company’s recognition of lease assets or liabilities on its balance sheet.  As a “lessor”, our company has active lease agreements with over 130 tenants across our portfolio of investment properties.

Upon the adoption of ASC No. 842, our company has elected the practical expedient permitting lessors to elect by class of underlying asset to not separate non-lease components (for example, maintenance services, including common area maintenance) from associated lease components (the “non-separation practical expedient”) if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and non-lease component(s) are the same and (2) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If both criteria are met, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 842 if the lease component is the predominant component of the combined component; otherwise, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition standard. Our company assessed the criteria above with respect to our operating leases and determined that they qualify for the non-separation practical expedient. As a result, we have accounted for and presented the revenues from either its retail properties or its hotel property.

these leases, including tenant reimbursements, as a single line item on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.  

Acquisition of Investments in Real Estate

The adoption of ASU 2017-01, as discussed in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statementscondensed consolidated financial statements included in this report, has impacted our accounting framework for the acquisition of investment properties. Upon acquisition of investment properties, our company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, buildings and improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment) and identified intangible assets and liabilities, including in-place leases, above- and below-market leases, tenant relationships and assumed debt based on evaluation of information and estimates available at that date. Fair values for these assets are not directly observable and estimates are based on comparable market data and other information which is subjective in nature, including estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We periodically review investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis to identify any events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. If any such events or changes in circumstances are identified, we perform a formal impairment analysis. We measure any impairment of investment property when the estimated undiscounted operating income before depreciation and amortization, is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, we charge to income the excess of carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. We estimate fair value using data such as operating income, estimated capitalization rates or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. Our company also reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually.

REIT Status

We are a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a REIT. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for the year ended December 31, 2017 and have not revoked such election. A REIT is a corporate entity which holds real estate interests and must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to stockholders. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on our taxable income if we annually distribute 100% of our taxable income to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to regular federal and state corporate income taxes and may not be able to elect to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Our qualification as a REIT requires management to exercise significant judgment and consideration with respect to operational matters and accounting treatment. Therefore, we believe our REIT status is a critical accounting estimate.

Evaluation of Our Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, our company is required to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether or not the entity’s current financial condition, including its sources of liquidity at the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, will enable the entity to meet its obligations as they come due arising within one year of the date of the issuance of our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and to make a determination as to whether or not it is probable, under the application of this accounting guidance, that the entity will be able to continue as a going concern. Our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. In applying applicable accounting guidance, management considered our company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our company’s obligations due over the next twelve months, as well as our company’s recurring business operating expenses.

The redemption date of our company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock is February 19, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”).  Our company will require additional liquidity to fund the redemption.  Our company expects to be able to generate this liquidity from a number of sources, including cash on hand, forecasted future cash flows for the periods prior to the Redemption Date, and careful management of our company’s capital expenditures during the periods prior to the Redemption Date.

We have concluded that it is probable that we will be able to meet our obligations arising within one year of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within the parameters set forth in the accounting guidance. For additional information regarding our company’s liquidity, see Note 5 – Loans Payable and Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our business model is intended to drive growth through acquisitions. Access to the capital markets is an important factor for our continued growth and success.  We expect to continue to issue equity in our company through our offering with proceeds being used to acquire additional target properties.

Our primary liquidity needs are primarily to fund (i)funding for (1) operations, including operating expenses, corporate and cash dividends; (ii) property acquisitions; (iii) depositsadministrative costs, payment of principal of, and feesinterest on, outstanding indebtedness, and escrow and reserve payments associated with long-term debt financing for our properties; (iv)(2) investing needs, including property acquisitions and recurring capital expenditures; (v)and (3) financing needs, including cash dividends and debt repayments; (vi) paymentrepayments.

38

Internal liquidity willto fund operating needs are expected to be provided solelyprimarily by the rental receipts from our realretail and flex center properties.  The only external liquidity source we have currently identified is our ongoing efforts to raise capital by the issuance of shares of common stock.

On May 13, 2019, we issued and sold 1,666,667 Common Shares at an offering price of $4.80 per share. Net proceeds from the issuance are estimated to be $6,755,000, which includes the impact of discounts and offering costs, including the underwriter’s selling commissions and legal, accounting and other professional fees. As part of this offering, we granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 250,000 additional Common Shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any.

2023.  Other Income and Expense

On November 3, 2017, our company entered into an Interest Rate Protection Transaction to limit our company’s exposure to increases in interest rates on the variable rate mortgage loan on the Hampton Inn Property. Under this agreement, our company’s interest rate exposure is capped at 7 percent if USD 1-Month LIBOR BBA exceeds 2%. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, USD 1-Month LIBOR was 2.4945 percent and 2.51988 percent, respectively. In accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging, our company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. As of March 31, 2019, the fair value of the Interest Rate Protection Transaction was $76,394, a decrease of $50,403 over the December 31, 2018 fair value. This decrease in fair value was recorded as a “decrease (increase) in fair value-interest rate cap” during the three months ended March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2018, the fair value of the Interest Rate Protection Transaction was $157,725, an increase decrease of $74,289 over the December 31, 2017 fair value. This increase in fair value was recorded as a “decrease (increase) in fair value-interest rate cap” during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Beginning in July 2018, the USD 1-Month LIBOR BBA rate exceeded two percent and remained in excess of two percent on each subsequent monthly valuation date from July 2018 through March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, our company received $14,391 and $0 in payments under the Interest Rate Protection Transaction, all of which were recorded as a reduction to interest expense.

Our company also recognized $4,374 and $0 in interest income on cash balances held in a money market account for the three months ended March 31, 20192024 consisted of $35,338 in income related to the fair value change of the interest rate cap, and 2018, respectively.

Funds from Operations

We use Fundsfunds from operations (“FFO”), a non-GAAP measure, as an alternative measure of our operating performance, specifically as it relates to results of operations and liquidity. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999, April 2002 and December 2018). As defined by NAREIT, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs and above and below market leases) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Most industry analysts and equity REITs, including us, consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions and excluding depreciation, FFO is a helpful tool that can assist in the comparison of the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods, or as compared to different companies. Management uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate our business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income alone as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while historically real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Accordingly, we believe FFO provides a valuable alternative measurement tool to GAAP when presenting our operating results.

30

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper states, “FFO of a REIT includes the FFO of all consolidated properties, including consolidated, partially owned affiliates”. Additionally, since the adjustments to GAAP net income, such as depreciation and amortization, used in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to determine FFO are not allocated between shareholders and noncontrolling interests (i.e. 100% of depreciation and amortization are “added back” without reduction to reflect the noncontrolling owners’ interest in such items), our company believes that the appropriate starting point for the calculation is the net income (loss) before allocation to noncontrolling interests.  This allows our company to use FFO as a tool to measure the overall performance of its investment properties, as a whole, not just the portion of the investment properties controlled by Companyour company’s shareholders.

44

Below is our company’s FFO, which is a non-GAAP measurement, for the three months ended March 31, 2019:2024 and 2023:

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper provides guidance for the treatment of impairment write-downs. Specifically, “To the extent there is an impairment write-down of depreciable real estate … related to a REIT’s main business, the write-down is excluded from FFO (i.e., adjusted from net income in calculating FFO).” Additionally, NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper provides guidance on gains or losses on the sale of assets, stating “the REIT has the option to include or exclude such gains and losses in the calculation of FFO.”

(7)

Consistent with the treatment of impairment write-downs, our company includes an adjustment for its loss on extinguishment of debt.

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper encourages companies reporting FFO to “make supplemental disclosure of all material non-cash revenues and expenses affecting their results for each period.” We believe that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by our operating portfolio and affect the comparability of our period-over-period performance. These items include non-cash items such as amortization of loans and above and below market leases, unbilled rent arising from applying straight line rent revenue recognition and share-based compensation expenses. Additionally, the impact of capital expenditures, including tenant improvement and leasing commissions, net of reimbursements of such expenditures by property escrow funds, is included in our calculation of AFFO. Therefore, in addition to FFO, management uses Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”), which we define to exclude such items. Management believes that these adjustments are appropriate in determining AFFO as their exclusion is not indicative of the operating performance of our assets. In addition, we believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to use in comparing us to other REITs as many REITs provide some form of adjusted or modified FFO. However, there can be no assurance that AFFO presented by us is comparable to the adjusted or modified FFO of other REITs.

45

Total AFFO for the three months ended March 31, 20192024 and 2023 was as follows:
