PRESIDENTIAL REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| 1. | Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Organization
Presidential Realty Corporation (“Presidential” or the “Company”) is operated as a self-administrated, self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”). The Company is engaged principally in the ownership of income producing real estate. Presidential operates in a single business segment, investments in real estate related assets.
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern Considerations
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company had a loss from operations. This combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of strategies to achieve profitability, and increase working capital by raising debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the respective periods have been reflected. These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed on April 12, 2016.
Real Estate
Real estate is stated at cost. Generally, depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the assets estimated useful lives, which range from twenty to thirty-nine years for buildings and improvements and from three to ten years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred and renewals and replacements are capitalized. The Company reviews each of its property investments for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment of properties is determined to exist when estimated amounts recoverable through future operations on an undiscounted basis are below the properties carrying value. If a property is determined to be impaired, it is written down to its estimated fair value.
Sale of Real Estate
Presidential follows the guidance of the Property, Plant and Equipment Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as it pertains to sales of real estate. Accordingly, the gains on certain transactions maybe deferred and recognized on the installment method until such transactions comply with the criteria for full profit recognition. At June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had no deferred gains.
PRESIDENTIAL REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Presidential Realty Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Rental Revenue Recognition
The Company acts as lessor under operating leases. Rental revenue is recorded on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs. Recognition of rental revenue is generally discontinued when the rental is delinquent for ninety days or more, or earlier if management determines that collection is doubtful.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company assesses the collectability of amounts due from tenants and other receivables, using indicators such as past-due accounts, the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history and the ability of the tenant or debtor to meet its payment obligations. Management’s estimate of allowances for doubtful accounts is subject to revision as these factors change. Rental revenue is recorded on the straight-line basis and rental revenue recognition is generally discontinued when the tenant in occupancy is delinquent for ninety days or more. Bad debt expense is charged for vacated tenant accounts and subsequent receipts collected for those receivables will reduce bad debt expense. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the allowance relating to tenant obligations was $1,471 and $790, respectively.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share data is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding (excluding non-vested shares) during each period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, including the dilutive effect, if any, of non-vested shares. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the weighted average shares outstanding as used in the calculation of diluted loss per share do not include 740,000, of outstanding stock options and 1,700,000 of outstanding warrants, as their inclusion would be antidilutive.
Cash
Cash includes cash on hand, cash in banks and cash in money market funds.
Management Estimates
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of income and expense for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounting for Stock Awards
The Company follows the guidance of ASC Topic 718 in accounting for stock-based compensation. Shares of Class B common stock granted are fully vested upon the grant date. The Company recorded the market value of any grants that were earned and vested in 2016 and 2015 to expense in each period.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows the guidance of the recognition of current and deferred income tax accounts, including accrued interest and penalties, in accordance with ASC 740-10-25. Under this guidance, if the Company’s tax positions in relation to certain transactions were examined and were not ultimately upheld, the Company would be required to pay an income tax assessment and related interest. Alternatively, the Company could elect to pay a deficiency dividend to its shareholders in order to continue to qualify as a REIT and the related interest assessment to the taxing authorities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-3, to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This update requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability, consistent with the required presentation for debt discounts. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard resulted in the reclassification of $150,438 of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Company’s mortgage loan (see Note 4b) from other assets to Mortgage payable within its consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Other than this reclassification, the adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Accumulated amortization as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $14,750 and $6,884, respectively.
Amortization expenses of mortgage costs was $3,933 and $1,420 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively and $7,866 and $2,389 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is included in interest expense.
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous leases standard, Leases (Topic 840). The standard is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Real estate is comprised of the following:
| | June 30, 2016 | | | December 31, 2015 | |

| 3. | Investments in Partnership |
We received distributions from Broadway Partners Fund II in the amount of $0 and $2,750 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This amount is reported as investment income on the statement of operations. This investment was previously written off. The Company recognizes income received from this investment on the cash basis.The Broadway Partners Fund II was closed at the end of 2014 and we do not expect any meaningful income from this investment in the future.
4.Mortgage Debt
| a. | On June 8, 2012, we closed on a mortgage and line of credit for a combined total of $1,000,000 with Country Bank for Savings on the Mapletree Industrial Center (the “Mapletree Property”). The mortgage was for $500,000 at a 5% interest rate, for a term of 5 years. Thereafter the interest adjusted monthly equal to the bank’s Prime Rate, plus 1% with an interest rate floor of 5%, for a term of 15 years. We received $459,620 of net proceeds. The line of credit was for $500,000, with an interest rate of 1% over the bank’s Prime Rate. The line of credit was due on demand. Both the mortgage and the line of credit were secured by the Mapletree Property. |
| b. | On July 28, 2015, Palmer-Mapletree LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Natixis Real Estate Capital LLC providing for a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $1,750,000 (the “Loan”) at an interest rate of 6.031%. $934,794 of the loan proceeds were used to repay the prior mortgage loan and line of credit on the Mapletree Property which was entered into on June 8, 2012 with Country Bank for Savings (see Note 4a). $123,757 of the Loan proceeds was set aside for capital improvements and reserves for the property. We received net proceeds of $585,125. The Loan matures on August 5, 2025 and requires monthly payments of $11,308. The outstanding balance of the loan and mortgage costs at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $1,725,785 and $142,572, respectively and $1,740,462 and $150,438, respectively. The Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants in accordance with the loan agreement. The Company was in compliance with the covenants at June 30, 2016. |
Presidential has elected to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code. A REIT which distributes at least 90% of its real estate investment trust taxable income to its shareholders each year by the end of the following year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders.
ASC 740 prescribes a more likely than not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken. If the Company’s tax position in relation to a transaction was not likely to be upheld, the Company would be required to record the accrual for the tax and interest thereon. As of June 30, 2016, the tax years that remain open to examination by the federal, state and local taxing authorities are the 2012 – 2016 tax years and the Company was not required to accrue any liability for those tax years.
The Company has accumulated a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $20,400,000 expiring from 2028 through 2034.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $220,000 ($.05 per share), which was all ordinary loss.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $187,000 ($.04 per share), which was all ordinary loss.

Overview
Presidential is a Delaware corporation organized in 1983 to succeed to the business of a company of the same name which was organized in 1961 to succeed to the business of a closely held real estate business founded in 1911. Since 1982, we have elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for Federal and State income tax purposes. We own, directly or indirectly, interests in real estate and interests in entities which own real estate.
We outsource the management of the Mapletree Industrial Center to Signature Community Management.
We obtain funds for working capital and investment from our available cash, operating activities and refinancing of mortgage loans on our real estate.
On July 28, 2015, Palmer-Mapletree LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Natixis Real Estate Capital LLC providing for a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $1,750,000 (the “Loan”) at an interest rate of 6.031%. $934,794 of the loan proceeds were used to repay the prior mortgage loan and line of credit on the Mapletree Property which was entered into on June 8, 2012 with Country Bank for Savings (see Note 4a). $123,757 of the Loan proceeds was set aside for capital improvements and reserves for the property. We received net proceeds of $585,125. The Loan matures on August 5, 2025 and requires monthly payments of $11,308. The outstanding balance of the loan and mortgage costs at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $1,725,785 and $142,572, respectively and $1,740,462 and $150,438, respectively. The Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants in accordance with the loan agreement. The Company was in compliance with the covenants at June 30, 2016.
Critical Accounting Policies
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company had a loss from operations. This combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of strategies to achieve profitability, and increase working capital by raising debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements and disclosures. These estimates require difficult, complex and subjective judgments. Management has discussed with the Audit Committee the implementation of the critical accounting policies described below and the estimates required with respect to such policies.
Real Estate
Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions and improvements are capitalized and repairs and maintenance are charged to rental property operating expenses as incurred. Depreciation is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The useful life of each property, as well as the allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components, requires estimates by management. If management incorrectly estimates the allocation of those costs or incorrectly estimates the useful lives of its real estate, depreciation expense may be miscalculated.
The Company reviews each of its properties for impairment if events or changes in circumstances warrant. If impairment were to occur, the property would be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company assesses the recoverability of its investment in real estate based on undiscounted cash flow estimates. The future estimated cash flows of a property are based on current rental revenues and operating expenses, as well as the current local economic climate affecting the property. Considerable judgment is required in making these estimates and changes in these estimates could cause the estimated cash flows to change and impairment could occur. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s net real estate was carried at $543,134.
Rental Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes rental revenue on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs.
Income Taxes
We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under Sections 856 to 860 of the Code. Under those sections, a REIT which meets certain requirements is not subject to Federal income tax on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders, if at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (exclusive of capital gains) is so distributed. As a result of our ordinary tax loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016, there is no requirement to make a distribution for the six months ended June 30, 2016. In addition, no provision for income taxes was required at June 30, 2016.

Prepaid expenses decreased by $79,560 primarily due to the accretion of the directors and officers tail policy purchased in 2011 and current directors and officers insurance premiums.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $169,835 primarily due to accrued salary for Nicholas W. Jekogian, CEO, as required by his employment contract and legal fees related to the company exploring various growth options.
Other liabilities increased $9,737 primarily due to increases in prepaid rent and security deposits.
Mortgage escrow increased $41,754 primarily due to an increase in escrows related to insurance.
