Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Hartman Income REIT, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Hartman Income REIT, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the December 31, 2018 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct prior period errors. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Business
Hartman Income REIT, Inc. (the “Company” or “HIREIT”) was formed as a corporation pursuant to the Maryland General Corporation Law on January 8, 2008. The Company elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning its taxable year ended December 31, 2008. Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. (“HIRM”) is a wholly owned management company subsidiary that serves as the general partner of Hartman Income REIT Operating Partnership, L.P. (“HIROP”). HIROP was formed on January 11, 2008 as a Delaware limited partnership. The Company conducts substantially all its real estate operations and activities through HIROP. As the sole member of the general partner of HIROP, the Company has the exclusive power to manage and conduct the business of HIROP, subject to certain customary exceptions.
Effective April 1, 2008 Houston RE Income Properties XIV REIT, Inc., Houston RE Income Properties XVI REIT, Inc., Houston RE Income Properties XVII REIT, Inc. and Hartman Income Properties XVIII REIT, Inc. merged into the Company pursuant to substantially identical plans of merger which were approved by majority of the respective stockholders of the combining parties. The operating partnership of each merging party (Houston RE Income Properties XIV, LP, Houston RE Income Properties XVI, Ltd., Houston RE Income Properties XVII, Ltd. and Hartman Income Properties XVIII, Ltd.) merged with and into HIROP. Collectively these transactions are referred to herein as the “Formation Transactions.”
Merger with Hartman XX
On July 21, 2017, as subsequently modified on May 8, 2018, the Company and HIROP entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc. (“Hartman XX”) and Hartman XX Limited Partnership, Hartman XX’s operating partnership (“XX Operating Partnership”) (the “HIREIT Merger Agreement”). On July 21, 2017, Hartman Short Term Income Properties XIX, Inc. (“Hartman XIX”) and Hartman XX entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “XIX Merger Agreement,” and together with the HIREIT Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreements”).
Subject to the terms and conditions of the XIX Merger Agreement, including the satisfaction of all closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreements, the Company will merge with and into Hartman XX, with Hartman XX surviving the merger (the “Hartman XIX Merger”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the HI-REIT Merger Agreement, (i) the Company will merge with and into Hartman XX, with Hartman XX surviving the merger (the “HIREIT Merger,” and together with the Hartman XIX Merger, the “REIT Mergers”), and (ii) HIREIT Operating Partnership will merge and with and into XX Operating Partnership, with XX Operating Partnership surviving the merger (the “Partnership Merger,” and together with the REIT Mergers, the “Mergers”). The REIT Mergers are intended to qualify as a “reorganization” under, and within the meaning of, Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Partnership Merger is intended to be treated as a tax-deferred exchange under Section 721 of the Code.
Pursuant to the HIREIT Merger Agreement, (i) each share of common stock of the Company (the “HIREIT Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the REIT Merger Effective Time (as defined in the HIREIT Merger Agreement) will be automatically cancelled and retired and converted into the right to receive 0.752222 shares of Hartman XX ("Hartman XX Common Stock"), and (ii) each share of subordinate common stock of HIREIT will be automatically cancelled and retired and converted into the right to receive 0.863235 shares of Hartman XX Common Stock, and (b) in connection with the Partnership Merger, each unit of limited partnership interest in HIREIT Operating Partnership (“HIREIT OP Units”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time (as defined in the HIREIT Merger Agreement) (other than any HIREIT OP Units held by HIREIT) will be automatically cancelled and retired and converted into the right to receive 0.752222 shares validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable units of limited partnership interests in Hartman XX Operating Partnership.
On May 14, 2020, the Merger Agreements were approved by the respective company shareholders. The effective date of the Mergers for financial reporting is July 1, 2020.
Pre-merger refinance of the Company’s Notes Payable
On October 1, 2018, Hartman XX, through its special purpose finance subsidiary, Hartman SPE, LLC ("SPE LLC"), as borrower, entered into a term loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") pursuant to which the lender made a term loan to SPE LLC in the principal amount of $259,000,000 (the "Loan").
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Contemporaneously therewith, the Company together with its affiliates Hartman XIX, Hartman XX and Hartman vREIT XXI, Inc. (“vREIT XXI”), contributed a total of 39 commercial real estate properties ("Properties") to SPE, LLC, subject to the mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Properties, in exchange for membership interests in SPE LLC. Proceeds of the Loan were immediately used to extinguish the existing mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Properties.
The manager (“Manager”) of SPE LLC is Hartman SPE Management, LLC. Hartman XX is the sole member of Hartman SPE Management LLC.
The Company contributed 17 commercial real estate properties to SPE LLC with an appraised value of approximately $184,140,000 and subject to outstanding mortgage indebtedness as of the contribution date of approximately $76,290,000. The company holds a 34.38% interest in SPE LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 .
Hartman XIX contributed nine commercial real estate properties to SPE LLC with an appraised value of approximately $129,090,000 and subject to outstanding mortgage indebtedness as of the closing date of approximately $44,401,000. Hartman XIX holds a 26.99% interest in SPE LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Hartman XX contributed 13 commercial real estate properties, including its 51.2% interest in Three Forest Plaza, to SPE LLC with an appraised value of approximately $181,034,000 and subject to outstanding mortgage indebtedness as of the closing date of approximately $78,322,000. Hartman XX holds a 36.16% and 32.74% interest in SPE LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
vREIT XXI contributed its 48.8% interest in Three Forest Plaza, which vREIT XXI owns in a joint venture arrangement with Hartman XX. The net asset value of the Three Forest Plaza minority interest is $18,486,000. vREIT XXI holds a 2.47% and 5.89% interest in SPE LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
The term of the Loan is five years, comprised of an initial two-year term with three one-year extension options. Each extension option shall be subject to certain conditions precedent including (i) no default then outstanding, (ii) 30 days prior written notice, (iii) the properties must have a specified in-place net operating income debt yield and (iv) purchase of an interest rate cap as described below for the exercised option term or terms.
The Loan Agreement is secured by, among other things, mortgages on the Properties. Hartman XX, Hartman XIX and the Company, entered into a guaranty agreement in favor of the lender, whereby each guarantor unconditionally guaranties the full and timely performance of the obligations set forth in the Loan Agreement and all other loan documents, including the payment of all indebtedness and obligations due under the Loan Agreement.
Note 2 – Variable Interest Entities
Variable interest entities (“VIEs”) are defined as entities with a level of invested equity that is not sufficient to fund future operations on a stand-alone basis, or whose equity holders lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. For identified VIEs, an assessment must be made to determine which party to the VIE, if any, has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impacts the performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of an affiliated entity, Hartman Advisors, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries Hartman Advisors XXI, LLC and Hartman vREIT XXI SLP LLC, and together referred to as “Advisors”. Advisors qualifies as a VIE. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses of Advisors have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Advisors is responsible for advising Hartman XX and vREIT XXI and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on behalf of Hartman XX and vREIT XXI through use of the employees of HIRM. As such, the Company provides the operational support necessary to maintain and operate Advisors and is, therefore, required to consolidate Advisors under generally accepted accounting principles. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and for the years then ended, Advisors had, on a separate company basis, assets of $200,561 and $647,773, respectively; liabilities of $250,346 and $253,446, respectively; revenues of $3,782,105 and $2,384,259, respectively; and expenses of $596,293 and $268,974, respectively.
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The liabilities of Advisors do not represent additional claims on the Company’s general assets; rather they represent claims against specific assets of the VIE. Likewise, the assets of the VIE consolidated by the Company do not represent additional assets available to satisfy the claims against the Company’s general assets.
Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation
HIRM is the sole general partner of HIROP and possesses full legal control and authority over the operations of HIROP. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company owned a majority of the limited partnership interests in HIROP. Advisors is the advisor to Hartman XX and vREIT XXI, affiliates of the Company. Advisors is beneficially owned 70% by Allen Hartman and his affiliates, the Company’s chief executive officer and the chairman of the Company’s board of directors, and 30% by HIRM.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company, through HIRM, is the sole owner of Hartman Retail II Holdings Company, Inc. (“Holdings”), an entity formed for the purpose of holding units of beneficial interest in a Delaware statutory trust being offered for sale to accredited investors in a private placement offering. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, Holdings owned 13.69% and 37.27% of the beneficial interests of the Delaware statutory trust, respectively. See Note 5.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HIROP, Advisors and Holdings. All significant inter-entity balances have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the share of equity and earnings of HIROP and Advisors allocable to holders of partnership interests and limited liability company interests other than the Company. Net income or loss is allocated to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted-average percentage ownership during the year. Issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest of the Company’s common shares and units of limited partnership interest in HIROP which are convertible into common shares on a one for one basis changes the ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interests and the Company. Limited liability company interests in Advisors are not convertible into common shares of the Company.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets and costs, the estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts and the estimates supporting the Company’s impairment analysis for the carrying values of real estate assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 consisted of demand deposits at commercial banks.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," (“ASC 606”) which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the industry-specific revenue recognition guidance and replaces it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach and the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Leasing Income
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 term 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
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
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 Certification (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 reimbursements and other revenues in the period the related costs as reported in the accompanying statement of operations. Leases are specifically excluded from ASC 606.
Management and Advisory Income
In addition to our leasing income, the Company also earns fee revenues by providing certain management and advisory services to related parties and third parties. These fees are accounted for within the scope of ASC 606 and are recorded as Management and Advisory Income on the consolidated statements of operations. These services primarily include asset management, operating and leasing of properties, construction management, and asset acquisitions. These services are currently provided under various combinations of advisory agreements, property management agreements, and other service agreements (the "Management Agreements"). The wide variety of duties within the Management Agreements makes determining the performance obligations within the contracts a matter of judgment. We have concluded that each of the separately disclosed fee types in the below table represents a separate performance obligation within the Management Agreements.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Fee | Performance Obligation Satisfied | Form and Timing of Payment | Description |
Property Management | Over time | In cash, monthly | The Company provides property management services on a contractual basis for owners of and investors in office and retail properties. The Company is compensated for our services through a monthly management fee earned based on either a specified percentage of the monthly rental income, rental receipts generated from the property under management or a fixed fee. We are also often reimbursed for our administrative and payroll costs directly attributable to the properties under management. Revenue is recognized at the end of each month. |
Property Leasing and Property Acquisition Services | Point in time (upon close of a transaction) | In cash, upon completion | The Company provides strategic advice and execution for owners, investors, and occupiers of real estate in connection with the leasing of office and retail space. The Company is compensated for our services in the form of a commission and, in some instances may earn various forms of variable incentive consideration. Commission is paid upon the occurrence of certain contractual event. For leases, the Company typically satisfies its performance obligation at a point in time when control is transferred. Revenue is recognized in an amount equal to the fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services. For acquisitions, our commission is typically paid at the closing date of sale, which represents transfer of control of services to the customer. |
Asset Management | Over time | In cash, monthly | The Company earns asset management advisory fees on a recurring, monthly basis for certain properties. The Company is compensated on a monthly basis based on a fixed percentage of respective asset value. |
Construction Management | Point in time (upon close of project) | In cash, upon completion | Construction management services are performed on a contractual basis for owners of an investors in office and retail properties. The Company is compensated for its services upon completion of a project, when its performance obligation has been completed. |
Due to the nature of the services being provided under our Management Agreements, each performance obligation has a variable component. Therefore, when we determine the transaction price for the contracts, we are required to constrain our estimate to an amount that is not probable of significant revenue reversal. For most of these fee types, such as acquisition fees and leasing commissions, compensation only occurs if a transaction takes place and the amount of compensation is dependent
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
upon the terms of the transaction. For our property and asset management fees, due to the large number and broad range of possible consideration amounts, we calculate the amount earned at the end of each month.
Refer to Note 6 - Revenue for more detailed information regarding the amounts associated with these fees.
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity in HIROP, Advisors and Holdings which are not owned by the Company. In the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, the noncontrolling interest in the net income of HIROP, Advisors and Holdings is shown as an allocation of net income (loss) and is presented separately as “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.” The Company reported noncontrolling interests in equity on the consolidated balance sheets separate from the Company’s equity (deficit). The noncontrolling interests in HIROP are owned by individuals, including Allen Hartman and his affiliates, the Company’s chief executive officer and chairman of its Board of Directors, who contributed real estate or undivided interests in real estate to HIROP in exchange for HIROP units. Advisors is beneficially owned 70% by Allen Hartman and his affiliates and 30% by HIRM.
In May 2016, the Company, through HIRM, formed Holdings, which initially owned all of the beneficial interests in Hartman Retail II DST. On May 17, 2016, Hartman Retail II DST acquired the property Mission Bend Center, from an unrelated party for $15,100,000, exclusive of closing costs. During 2018, the Holdings sold a majority of the interests in Mission Bend Center. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company owned 13.69% and 37.27%, respectively, of interest in Mission Bend Center. The operations of Mission Bend Center have been deconsolidated as of December 31, 2018.
Real Estate
The historical cost basis (original cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization) of real estate owned by the parties prior to the Formation Transactions has been retained. The purchase price of each property was allocated to land, building and improvements, identifiable intangible assets and to the acquired liabilities based on their respective fair values. Identifiable intangible assets include the value of in-place leases which were determined to be market value leases. Fair value was determined based on estimated cash flow projections that utilized appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimated future cash flows were based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends and specific market and economic conditions that may have affected the property. Factors considered by management in the analysis of determining the as-if-vacant property value included an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management included real estate taxes, insurance and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, tenant demand and other economic conditions. Management also estimated costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related expenses. Intangibles related to in- place lease value were recorded as acquired lease intangibles and are amortized over the remaining terms of the underlying leases.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is the Company’s 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-cancellable 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 using the straight-line method as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining expected terms of the respective leases.
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
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 management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in in-place lease intangible assets and are amortized using the straight- line method 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 will be included in in-place lease value intangible assets, which are included in real estate assets, in the consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense, using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the respective leases. The amortization expense is included in depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations.
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 Company’s reported net income (loss).
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years for the buildings and improvements. Tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the life of the improvement or remaining term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Amortization is computed using the straight- line method over the remaining terms of the leases underlying the intangible in-place lease value. Depreciation is not recorded on real estate held for disposition.
Impairment
Properties are reviewed for impairment 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. A determination is made as to 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 is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value. Management of the Company has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
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 rents and accounts receivable is determined based upon customer credit-worthiness (including expected recovery of the Company’s claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends.
Deferred Lease Commissions
Leasing commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease agreements.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets
Prepaid expenses and other assets include prepaid insurance and other deposits.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation with regard to issuance of stock for 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
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
instruments issued. Stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Advertising
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred, and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Advertising costs totaled $114,805 and $178,802 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company elected to be treated as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s 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 generally accepted accounting principles). 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 Company’s 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 years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred net loss of $3,548,170 and $484,150, respectively. The Company does not anticipate 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 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 Company’s 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.
Concentration of Risk
Effective October 1, 2018, substantially all of the company assets are represented by its investment in Hartman SPE LLC. The Company maintains cash accounts in three U.S. financial institutions. The terms of these deposits are on demand to minimize risk. As of December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any depository accounts in excess of the federally insured limits.
Reclassification
Certain items in the comparative consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period. Accounts payable and accrued expenses reporting line was adjusted to remove the balance for the intercompany interest payable on the face of the consolidated balance sheets. The balance for the intercompany interest payable was reclassified to the Due to related parties reporting line.
Recently Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The updated guidance requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets, including trade and other receivables, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This is different from the current guidance as this will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim
HARTMAN INCOME REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
periods within those years beginning after January 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements when adopted.
Note 4 — Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
The Company has restated its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, its consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2018, and its consolidated statements of changes in equity for the year ended December 31, 2018, along with certain related notes to such restated consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company has restated its consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The Company determined that the restatement was necessary due to two adjustments. The first adjustment needed is between APIC and related party balances and the second to investments in affiliates and equity in losses of unconsolidated entities. The APIC and related party balances was a correction to the transaction which the Company recorded on October 1, 2018, in relation with the assets contributed to SPE, LLC. The Company also recorded a reclassification adjustment to conform the presentation of its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 to the current period classification and maintain comparability. This adjustment is to reclassify intercompany accrued interest payable from Accounts payable and accrued expenses reporting line to Due from related parties reporting line, as disclosed in Note 13 - Related Party Transactions. The investments in affiliates and equity in losses of unconsolidated entities adjustment corrects the Company’s proportionate share in losses of SPE, LLC for restatements made to SPE, LLC’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2018.
In addition to the restatement of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has also restated Note 11 – Notes Payable, Note 13 – Related Party Transactions, and Note 9 - Investment in affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2018 to reflect the error corrections noted above.
The following table presents the combined impact of all changes, as described above, to the applicable line items in the consolidated financial statements to the Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018:

Note 12 – Income Taxes
Federal income taxes are not provided for because the Company qualifies as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and because the Company has distributed and intends to continue to distribute all of its taxable income to its stockholders, who include their proportionate taxable income in their individual tax returns. As a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its real estate investment trust taxable income to its stockholders and meet certain income sources and investment restriction requirements. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. The Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 have not been examined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company’s federal income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2017 may be examined on or before September 15, 2021.
Taxable income (loss) differs from net income (loss) for financial reporting purposes principally due to differences in the timing of recognition of interest, real estate taxes, depreciation and amortization and rental revenue.
