Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
Hubilu Venture Corporation (“the Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on March 2, 2015 and is a real estate consulting, asset management and business acquisition company, which specializes in acquiring student housing and corporate income properties and development/business opportunities located near the Los Angeles Metro/subway stations and within the Los Angeles area.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with GAAP and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with that Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year.

HUBILU VENTURE CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 these estimates.
Segment Reporting
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company operates as a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company discloses the fair value of certain assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC 820). Under ASC 820-10-05, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from leases with its various tenants under operating leases in accordance with a five-step model in which the Company evaluates the performance obligations in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company’s sales are predominantly generated from leasing its properties to various tenants under operating leases. These sales contain a single performance obligation, and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis using the effective interest method, based on the Company’s borrowing rate, over the life of the leases. The Company records adjustments to revenue for incidentals and move out, or janitorial reimbursements in the same period that the related revenue is recorded.
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
Note 2 – Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024, our balance of cash on hand was $135,798, and we had negative working capital of $3,138,271 and an accumulated deficit of $2,183,640. The Company expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, and may not be able to generate sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months. Accordingly, we may need to raise additional cash to fund our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In the event revenues do not materialize at the expected rates, management would seek additional financing and would attempt to conserve cash by further reducing expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.

HUBILU VENTURE CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to acquire new properties and increase revenues is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital.
Note 3 – Significant Concentrations
The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total net revenue, or whose accounts receivable balances individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable, as follows:
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, one customer accounted for 54% and 64% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
The Company has cash and debts that must be measured under the fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balances sheet as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

The Series A preferred stock is also subject to certain adjustments for dilution, if any, resulting from future stock issuances, including for any subsequent issuance of common stock at a price per share less than that paid by the holders of the preferred stock.
Each share of Series 1 preferred stock, is convertible at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock, at the lesser of $0.50 per share or a ten percent (10%) discount to the average closing bid price of the common stock 5 days prior to the notice of conversion.

Note 13 – Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $1,472,000 of federal net operating losses. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2025.
Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition to historical condensed financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Overview
We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on March 2, 2015, and are a real estate consulting, asset management and business acquisition company, that specializes in acquiring student housing and corporate income properties and development/business opportunities located near the Los Angeles Metro/subway stations and within the Los Angeles area.
Due to high demand for houses from students, non- profit, and for-profit corporate tenants around the USC Campus and neighbouring Metro/subway stations, we have focused on acquiring multiple houses, remodeling and renting out. Rents have increased dramatically for houses in our target areas, allowing us to target larger and higher priced houses, while factoring in current interest rates.
With multiple properties within a small radius, we’re able to take advantage of economies of scale and benefit from property management efficiencies. Our focus is to continue acquiring houses and expand rental operations.
We purchased three new properties during the second quarter of 2024, and entered into agreements to acquire two additional properties during the third quarter of 2024. All properties have been purchased in conjunction with various debt financing arrangements.
Going Concern Uncertainty
As of June 30, 2024, our balance of cash on hand was $135,798, and we had negative working capital of $3,138,271 and an accumulated deficit of $2,183,640. We expect to incur further losses in the development of its business; therefore, we may not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months and we may need to raise additional cash to fund our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In the event revenues do not materialize at the expected rates, management would seek additional financing and would attempt to conserve cash by further reducing expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to acquire new properties and increase revenues is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital.
