Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this report are unaudited; however, amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 are derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2015 have been prepared by us in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, on a basis consistent with the annual audited consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2015, and the results of consolidated operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the consolidated statement of stockholders equity for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The results of the six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. The consolidated financial statements herein are condensed and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications We have reclassified certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss, total assets, total liabilities or stockholders equity. Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of demand deposits at commercial banks. Restricted Cash Restricted cash represents cash for which the use of funds is restricted by certain loan documents. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had a restricted cash balance of $7,100,000, respectively, which represents amounts set aside as impounds to be disbursed to the Company (i) upon its achieving incremental occupancy and gross income thresholds at the Richardson Heights Property and the Bent Tree Green Property, and (ii) the completion of certain agreed upon capital repairs at the Cooper Street Property and the Mitchelldale Property. Restricted cash includes $6,500,000 of loan proceeds and $600,000 in cash, which have been deposited in an escrow account with a loan servicer. Financial Instruments The accompanying consolidated balance sheets include the following financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accrued rent and accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and due from (to) related parties. The Company considers the carrying value to approximate the fair value of these financial instruments based on the short duration between origination of the instruments and their expected realization. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, the carrying value of its notes payable approximates fair value. Revenue Recognition Our leases are accounted for as operating leases. Certain leases provide for tenant occupancy during periods for which no rent is due and/or for increases or decreases in the minimum lease payments over the terms of the leases. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the individual leases. Revenue recognition under a lease begins when the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased space. When the Company acquires a property, the term of existing leases is considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purposes of this calculation. Accrued rents are included in accrued rent and accounts receivable, net. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605-10-S99, Revenue Recognition, the Company will defer the recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage rents, until the specific target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in tenant reimbursement and other revenues in the period the related costs are incurred. Real Estate Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is the Companys policy to allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and leasehold improvements and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company utilizes internal valuation methods to determine the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and buildings). The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place lease values, including below-market renewal options for which renewal has been determined to be reasonably assured, are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (a) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (b) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases and below-market renewal options, which is generally obtained from independent appraisals, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The above-market and below-market lease and renewal option values are capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining expected terms of the respective leases. The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on independent appraisals and managements consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in intangible lease assets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These intangibles are included in real estate assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount rates and other variables. The use of inappropriate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of the purchase price allocations, which could impact the amount of the Companys reported net loss. Depreciation and amortization Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years for buildings and improvements. Tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the life of the improvement or the remaining term of the lease. In-place leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the weighted average years calculated on terms of all of the leases in-place when acquired. Impairment We review our real estate assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. We determine whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), including the estimated residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the property. If impairment is indicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value. Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of our real estate assets as of June 30, 2015. Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to release the property and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the propertys future cash flow and fair value and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and net income. Accrued Rent and Accounts Receivable Included in accrued rent and accounts receivable are base rents, tenant reimbursements and receivables attributable to recording rents on a straight-line basis. An allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rent and accounts receivable is determined based upon customer credit-worthiness (including expected recovery of our claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends. Deferred Loan and Leasing Commission Costs Loan costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the terms of the loans, which approximates the interest method. Leasing commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease agreements. Goodwill GAAP requires the Company to test goodwill for impairment at least annually or more frequently whenever events or circumstances occur indicating goodwill might be impaired. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, or if the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, the Company performs a two-step impairment test. In the first step, management compares its net book value of the Company to the carrying amount of goodwill at the balance sheet date. In the event net book value of the Company is less than the carrying amount of goodwill, the Company proceeds to step two and assesses the need to record an impairment charge. No goodwill impairment has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Organization and Offering Costs The Company has incurred certain expenses in connection with organizing the Company. These costs principally relate to professional and filing fees. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, such costs totaled $218,403 and $156,111, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, such costs totaled $356,224 and $216,869, respectively. Organization and offering costs will be reimbursed by the Advisor to the extent that organization and offering costs ultimately exceed 1.5% of gross offering proceeds. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, the amount of offering and organizational expenses incurred in excess of 1.5% of gross offering proceeds was cumulatively $508,240 and $535,023 for the Companys initial and follow-on offerings. No demand has been made of the Advisor for reimbursement as of June 30, 2015 and no receivable has been recorded with respect to the excess costs as of that date. The Company expects the excess cost to diminish as additional offering proceeds are received. Selling commissions in connection with the offering are recorded and charged to additional paid-in capital. Stock-Based Compensation The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (ASC 718) with regard to issuance of stock in payment of services. ASC 718 requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The compensation cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Advertising The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs totaled $43,949 and $17,728 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Advertising costs totaled $72,579 and $22,328 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Income Taxes We have elected to be treated as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2011. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Companys annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect the Companys net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the Company believes that it is organized and will operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,781,239 and $1,076,706, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,702,350 and $1,819,037, respectively. The Company does not currently anticipate forming any taxable REIT subsidiaries or otherwise generating future taxable income which may be offset by the net loss carry forward. The Company considers that any deferred tax benefit and corresponding deferred tax asset which may be recorded in light of the net loss carry forward would be properly offset by an equal valuation allowance in that no future taxable income is expected. Accordingly no deferred tax benefit or deferred tax asset has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company is required to recognize in its consolidated financial statements the financial effects of a tax position only if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the tax position will not be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Management has reviewed the Companys tax positions and is of the opinion that material positions taken by the Company would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized a liability related to uncertain tax positions. Loss Per Share The computations of basic and diluted loss per common share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities. The Companys potentially dilutive securities include preferred shares that are convertible into the Companys common stock. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no shares issuable in connection with these potentially dilutive securities. These potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 because no shares are issuable and inclusion of such potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. Concentration of Risk We maintain cash accounts in one U.S. financial institution. The terms of these deposits are on demand to minimize risk. The balances of these accounts may exceed the federally insured limits. No losses have been incurred in connection with these deposits. The geographic concentration of the Companys real estate assets makes it susceptible to adverse economic developments in the State of Texas. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in these markets, such as business layoffs or downsizing, relocations of businesses, increased competition or any other changes, could adversely affect the Companys operating results and its ability to make distributions to stockholders. The sole tenant of the Gulf Plaza property represents 13.3% and 18.7% of rental revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
