Item 1. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The terms “HappyNest”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” in this Semiannual Report on Form 1-SA refer to HappyNest REIT, Inc. unless the context indicates otherwise.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Semiannual Report. 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 Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information contained in our latest offering circular (our “Offering Circular”) qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which may be accessed here. Unless otherwise indicated, latest results discussed below are as of June 30, 2021. The financial statements included in this filing as of June 30, 2021 and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited and have not been reviewed, and may not include year-end adjustments necessary to make those financial statements comparable to audited results, although in the opinion of management all necessary adjustments have been included to make interim statements of operations not misleading.
Overview
HappyNest REIT, Inc. is a Maryland corporation that was formed on February 14, 2018, to acquire and manage a diversified portfolio of single-tenant net leased income producing properties, real estate debt, and other real estate related investments. We plan to diversify our portfolio by credit, geography, investment size, and risk to achieve a portfolio of real estate assets that preserve investment capital, provide a steady stream of current income, and achieve conservative capital appreciation over time.
Although we are not limited as to the form our investments may take, our investments in real estate will generally constitute acquiring fee title or interests in entities that own and operate real estate. We will make acquisitions of our real estate investments directly through HappyNest Operating Partners, LP, our operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), or indirectly through limited liability companies or limited partnerships, including through other real estate investment trusts, or REITs, or through investments in joint ventures, partnerships, tenants-in-common, co-tenancies or other co-ownership arrangements with other owners of properties, affiliates of our advisor or other persons.
The number and type of real estate assets we may acquire will depend upon the number of shares sold and the resulting amount of the net proceeds available for investment. If we are unable to raise substantial funds, we will make fewer investments resulting in less diversification in terms of the number of investments owned and the geographic regions in which our investments are located. Consequently, the likelihood of our profitability being affected by the performance of any one of our investments will increase. In addition, if we are unable to raise substantial funds, our fixed operating expenses, as a percentage of gross income, will be higher, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to pay distributions.
HappyNest Advisors, LLC, our advisor (our “Advisor”), is responsible for sourcing, acquiring, and managing the day-to-day operations of our real estate investments. Our Advisor has the authority to make all of our investment decisions, subject to the direction and oversight of our board, which consists mainly of independent directors.
We face risks and uncertainties that could affect us and our business as well as the real estate industry generally. These risks are outlined under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in our latest Offering Circular filed with the SEC, which may be accessed here, as the same may be updated from time to time by our future filings under Regulation A (“Regulation A”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In addition, new risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. These risks could result in a decrease in the value of our common shares.
In addition, as a result of the global outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), economic uncertainties have arisen that continue to have an adverse impact on economic and market conditions. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving, and the outbreak presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company’s performance and financial results. The Company is unable to quantify the impact COVID-19 may have on its financial results at this time.
Commencing with the taxable year ending December 31, 2020, the Company operates in a manner intended to qualify for treatment as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
As a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will not be subject to most U.S. federal income tax to the extent we distribute qualifying dividends to our stockholders in accordance with Section 856(c) of the Code. In the event we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied. Failing to qualify as a REIT could materially and adversely affect our net income and cash available for distribution. We believe we are organized in such a manner, and will operate in such a way as to enable us to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ending December 31, 2020 and subsequent tax years.
Because we conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership, we will be considered an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust, or UPREIT. Using an UPREIT structure may give us an advantage in acquiring properties from persons who might not otherwise sell their properties because of unfavorable tax results. Generally, a sale of property directly to a REIT, or a contribution in exchange for REIT shares, is a taxable transaction to the selling property owner. However, in an UPREIT structure, a seller of a property who desires to defer taxable gain on the sale of property may transfer the property to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership interests in the Operating Partnership potentially deferring a gain for tax purposes.
We present our financial statements and Operating Partnership income, expenses and depreciation on a consolidated basis with our Operating Partnership. All items of income, gain, deduction (including depreciation), loss and credit flow through the Operating Partnership to us as all subsidiary entities are disregarded for federal tax purposes. These tax items do not generally flow through us to our stockholders. Rather, our operating results and net capital gain effectively flow through us to our stockholders as and when we pay distributions.
We will continue to monitor the various qualification tests that we must meet to maintain our status as a REIT. Ownership of our shares will be monitored to ensure that no more 50% in value of our outstanding shares is owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time. We will continue to determine periodically that the gross income, asset and distribution tests as described in the section of our Offering Circular entitled ”Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation of HappyNest REIT, Inc.— Income Tests, —Assets Tests” and ”— Annual Distribution Requirements” are satisfied.
Our Portfolio
At June 30, 2021, the Company is party to a tenancy in common agreement with undivided interests in two unconsolidated properties.
On April 24, 2020, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, CPI Fremont Three LLC (“CPI Fremont Three”), purchased an indirect 2.67% tenancy in common interest in real property located in Fremont, Indiana (the “Fremont Property”), pursuant to a tenancy in common agreement (the “Fremont TIC Agreement”), for an aggregate investment amount of $250,000. The Fremont Property consists of approximately 42.87 acres of land. A FedEx Freight truck terminal and distribution facility is located on the Fremont Property, with a footprint of approximately 118,526 square feet. The Fremont Property was purchased subject to a lease by FedEx Freight East, Inc. (the “Fremont Lease”).
On June 22, 2020, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, CPI East Hampton III, LLC (“CPI East Hampton III”), purchased a 13.548% tenancy in common interest in real property located in Easthampton, Massachusetts (the “Easthampton Property”), pursuant to a tenancy in common agreement (the “Easthampton TIC Agreement”), for an aggregate investment amount of $252,589 The Easthampton Property consists of an 8,775 square foot commercial building, located on 1.54 acres of land. The Easthampton Property was purchased subject to a lease with CVS, Inc. for usage of the property as a CVS Pharmacy (the “Easthampton Lease”).
Results of Operations
We have offered and may continue to offer in the future, up to $50.0 million in our common shares in any rolling twelve-month period under Regulation A (the “Offering”). The SEC adopted an amendment to increase the maximum offering amount under Tier 2 of Regulation A from $50.0 million to $75.0 million. This amendment became effective March 15, 2021, and the Company may utilize this increased offering amount in the future. The Offering has been conducted as a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3) of Regulation A, meaning that while the offering of securities is continuous, active sales of securities may occur sporadically over the term of the Offering.
As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate amounts raised by the Company was $1,137,159.
Revenue
The Company records revenue from its equity method investments for the Company’s share of the undistributed earnings or losses from the underlying entity. The Company recorded approximately $26,000 and $6,000 in undistributed earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Expenses
Asset Management and other fees – related party
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred asset management fees in the amount of approximately $1,260 and $260, respectively, and is recorded within operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, these amounts are included within due to affiliates on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Acquisition Fee
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred acquisition fees in the amount of approximately $0 and $15,000, respectively, and is recorded within operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the full $15,000 is included within due to affiliates on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as reimbursement has been deferred by the Advisor.
Disposition Fee
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred no disposition fee.
Property Management Fee
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred no property management fee.
Advisory Agreement Fee
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred no advisory fees..
Sponsor and Subscriber Administration Fee
No such fees have been paid or accrued as of June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020, and the Sponsor has not collected or contributed to the Sponsor fee as of June 30, 2021.
Stock Compensation Expense
During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company granted 10,000 and 20,000 restricted shares of common stock under the Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) to certain executive Board Members. The fair value of the restricted shares granted were based on the fair value of the Company’s stock as determined by management. This resulted in the recognition of stock-based compensation expense of $37,500 and $25,000 being recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and is included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. No shared were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021 under the Plan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require capital to fund our investment activities and operating expenses. Our capital sources may include net proceeds from the Offering, cash flow from operations and borrowings under loans and credit facilities.
As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate amounts raised by the Company was $1,137,159. For the foreseeable future we will be dependent upon our ability to finance our operations from the sale of equity or other financing alternatives. Our principal demands for funds will be to purchase real estate properties and make other real estate investments, for the payment of operating expenses and distributions, and for the payment of principal and interest on any indebtedness we incur. Although we depend upon the net proceeds from the sale of our shares of common stock to conduct substantially all of our operations, we may fund our capital requirements from a variety of other sources.
As of June 30, 2021, our indebtedness primarily consisted of expenses reimbursable to our affiliates for the costs incurred by us in connection with our organization and our Offering, fees payable to our affiliates that we incurred in connection with the acquisitions of our investment properties, as well as stock based compensation expenses.
Once we have acquired a substantial portion of our real estate portfolio with the proceeds from our Offering, we expect that our debt ratio will not exceed 50% (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves). Although our borrowing policy is not to exceed 50% of the portfolio’s net assets (equivalent to 50% of the cost of our assets), we have imposed no limitation on the amount we may borrow for the purchase of individual assets. For example, HappyNest may take on a property level loan at 65% loan-to-cost (LTC) so long as our total portfolio’s debt ratio, including all debt financings and other liabilities, does not exceed our limitations. Any debt financing for investments that will render our debt ratio in excess of 50% must be approved by a majority of our independent directors, or our Conflicts Committee, and disclosed to our stockholders in any subsequent public reports.
To qualify as a REIT for income tax purposes we are required to pay minimum annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of HappyNest’s taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain). We intend for our investments to provide sufficient available cash flow from operations to pay distributions. Our Advisor may deem, from time to time, our then-current financial condition capable of supporting distributions in excess of the minimum distribution amount.
In the event we are required to pay dividends prior to having invested a substantial portion of the net proceeds from our Offering, our Sponsor or Advisor may choose, at their sole discretion, to defer reimbursements and fees due to them in order to increase the capital available for distributions to stockholders. The amount and frequency of fee reimbursements to our Sponsor and Advisor may adversely impact our ability to make future distributions and requires approval of the majority of our independent directors or our Conflicts Committee prior to payment. Our Sponsor has deferred its right to payment in reimbursement for the costs incurred by it or its affiliates in connection with our organization and our Offering.
Cash Flow
The following presents our cash flows for the six-months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:
| | For the six- month period ended June 30, 2021 | | | For the six- month period ended June 30, 2020 | |
Operating activities: | | $ | 12,154 | | | | 1,926 | |
Investing activities: | | | - | | | | (502,589 | ) |

Cash and cash equivalents, end of period | | $ | 60,947 | | | | 40,025 | |
Net cash provided by operating activities was $12,154 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, compared to $1,926 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to the Company’s equity method investments and stock based compensation.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, compared to $502,589 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.
Net cash used in financing activities was $5,191 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, compared to $340,325 net cash provided by financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to dividends paid to the Company’s stockholders in the amount of approximately $31,000.
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our financial statements.
We believe the application of accounting policies, and the estimates inherently required therein, are reasonable. These accounting policies and estimates are periodically reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change. We base our estimates on industry experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, or if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.
Our accounting policies are further described in our financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Semiannual Report. See Footnote 3 to our financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
JUNE 30, 2021
1. | Business and Organization |
Nature of Operations
HappyNest REIT, Inc. (“HappyNest”), was incorporated in the State of Maryland on February 14, 2018. HappyNest intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. HappyNest is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York and was formed for the purpose of providing the opportunity to invest in a low-cost, professionally managed portfolio of commercial real estate assets to investors who have, until recently, had limited access to these types of investments.
HappyNest is externally managed by its advisor HappyNest Advisors, LLC (“Advisor”), which is an affiliate of its Sponsor, HappyNest Holdings, LLC, (the “Sponsor”), formerly known as Vitellus, LLC.
The Company’s Offering (the “Offering”) is being sold on a “best efforts” basis and consists of a minimum of $300,000 of its shares of its common stock, at an initial offering price of $10.00 per share.

3. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all money market accounts and other highly liquid financial instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to certain limits. From time to time, the Company may maintain cash balances at certain institutions in excess of FDIC limits.
Equity investments in real estate
Equity method investments in real estate is presented in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting since the Company does not control the joint venture. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at the original investment amount, plus additional amounts invested, and are subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of the undistributed earnings or losses and distributions from the underlying entity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. In addition, management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern involves the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash inflows and outflows. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, judgements, and methodologies. The Company bases its estimates on industry experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
See notes to consolidated financial statements.
3. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
Income Taxes
The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and intends to operate as such. The Company expects to have little or no taxable income prior to electing REIT status. 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 its shareholders (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 U.S. federal income tax to the extent it distributes qualifying dividends to its shareholders. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
Stock-based Compensation
The measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards are based on estimated fair values. Awards granted are valued at fair value and any compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of each award.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated on the basis of weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common members by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of stock options, if any.
Organizational, Offering and Related Costs
The Company’s Sponsor, Advisor or their affiliates intend to initially pay all of the costs associated with the organization and the offering of the Company’s common shares. If any of these costs are paid by the Advisor or affiliates of the Advisor or Sponsor, the Sponsor will be responsible for reimbursing the Advisor or its affiliates. At the election of the Company’s Sponsor, the Company will start to reimburse their Sponsor, without interest, for these organization and offering costs incurred both before and after such date. Reimbursement payments will be made in monthly installments, but the aggregate monthly amount reimbursed can never exceed 0.50% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds from the Company’s offering; provided, however, no reimbursement will be made which, as a result of the reimbursement, would cause the net asset value to be less than $10.00 per share. If the sum of the total unreimbursed amount of such organization and offering costs, plus new costs incurred since the last reimbursement payment, exceeds the reimbursement limit described above for the applicable monthly installment, the excess will be eligible for reimbursement in subsequent months (subject to the 0.50% limit), calculated on an accumulated basis, until our Sponsor has been reimbursed in full.
The Company records a liability for organizational costs and offering costs payable to the Sponsor when it is probable and estimable that a liability has been incurred in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. When recorded by the Company, organization costs are expensed as incurred, and offering costs are netted against the proceeds on a pro rata basis charged to members’ equity as such amounts are reimbursed to the Sponsor from the gross proceeds of the Offering. This reimbursement is subject to a limitation of 3% of the gross offering proceeds received by the Company.
Subject to the forgoing provision, the Company may make reimbursement payments in one or more installments.

Organizational, Offering and Related Costs (Continued)
The Company’s minimum offering amount of $300,000 was met and began operations on April 24, 2020. The total organization and offering costs incurred from inception through June 30, 2021 was approximately $1,206,973, of which approximately $35,000 is available for reimbursement by the Company to the Sponsor as a result of the limitation to 3% of the total gross proceeds received by the Company in their Offering. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded approximately $15,000 of these reimbursable expenses within operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021, the full $35,000 amount is included within due to affiliates on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as the Company’s Sponsor deferred its right to receive payment as reimbursement for the costs incurred by it or its affiliates in connection with the Company’s organization and the Offering.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB” issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04 (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London interbank offered rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our financial statements.
4. | Equity Investments in Real Estate |
At June 30, 2021, the Company is party to a tenancy in common agreement with undivided interests in two unconsolidated properties which are accounted under the equity method of accounting (i.e. at cost, increased or decreased by our share of earnings or losses, less distributions, plus contributions and other adjustments required by equity method accounting). The real estate properties are owned by undivided interest and are subject to joint control by the owners. Consequently, the Company is able to exert significant influence over the operations of the real properties and these follow the equity method of accounting.
The following table sets forth the Company’s ownership interests in the investments in real estate and their respective carrying values. The carrying values of these investments are affected by the timing and nature of distributions:

| (1) | On April 24, 2020, HNR Fremont purchased an indirect 2.67% tenancy-in-common non-controlling interest in real property in Fremont, IN (the FedEx Property), for an aggregate investment amount of $250,000, through its subsidiary, CPI Fremont Three. The total purchase price of the FedEx Property was $20,079,262 and is subject to a mortgage note. The Company’s Advisor has deferred their fee in the amount of $7,500 related to the acquisition of such property. This amount was recorded within operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, this amount is included within due to affiliates on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The FedEx Property is subject to a mortgage note with a total principal balance of $11,950,000, which matures on June 1, 2025, and bears interest at a rate of the applicable LIBOR rate plus 1.50%. Under the terms of this mortgage note, the tenants-in common are required to maintain certain financial ratios at specified levels, as defined within the mortgage note. Neither HappyNest REIT, Inc. nor our subsidiary CPI Fremont Three, is a guarantor under the mortgage note. CPI Fremont Three is joint and severally liable for the full balance of the mortgage note along with the other tenants in common, however the mortgagee’s recourse for the enforcement and collection of the obligations under the mortgage note is limited to CPI Fremont Three and its assets and therefore limited to our investment of $250,000. Further, all members of the tenancy in common agreement have indemnified each other to their pro-rata share of the mortgage, therefore the amount outstanding under the mortgage note has not been recorded as a liability as CPI Fremont Three has not agreed to pay any amounts due and does not expect to pay any amounts as we expect that the rental revenues of the property will be utilized to pay the required debt service. As such, no liability has been recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 or 2020. Revenues from for the six months ended June 30, 2021were approximately $623,000, with related expenses of approximately $187,000, for which the Company has a 2.67% interest. Revenues from April 24, 2020, the purchase of the FedEx Property, through June 30, 2020 were approximately $228,000, with related expenses of approximately $43,000, for which the Company has a 2.67% interest. |

Authority is expressly vested in the Board, to authorize the issuance of one or more series of preferred stock without approval of the Company’s common stockholders. The Board may determine the relative rights, preferences and privileges of each class or series of preferred stock issued, which may be more beneficial than the rights, preferences and privileges attributable to the Company’s common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

A majority of the Company’s independent directors who do not have an interest in the transaction must approve any issuance of preferred stock.

In any liquidation, each outstanding share of common stock entitles its holder to share (based on the percentage of shares held) in the assets that remain after the Company pays its liabilities and any preferential distributions owed to preferred stockholders. Holders of shares of our common stock do not have preemptive rights, which means that such holders will not have an automatic option to purchase any new shares that the Company decides issue, nor do holders of the Company’s shares of common stock have any preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund, or appraisal rights. The Company’s shares of common stock, when purchased and paid for and issued in accordance with the terms of the offering circular, will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, 3,750 restricted shares have vested.
The fair value of the restricted shares granted were based on the fair value of the Company’s stock as determined by management.
