Consolidated Financial Statements

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Members of

Sentinel Omaha Limited Liability Company:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of Sentinel Omaha Limited Liability Company and Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Sentinel Omaha Limited Liability Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.   Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2010.

SENTINEL OMAHA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended December 31, 2018

1. ORGANIZATION

Sentinel Omaha Limited Liability Company and Subsidiaries (the "Company") was organized on June 4, 2007 as a Delaware limited liability company for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding stock of America First Apartment Investors, Inc. (“APRO”). Sentoma, LLC (the “Manager”), an affiliate of one of the members, serves as the Manager of the Company. Net profits and losses of the Company shall be allocated to the members of the Company in proportion to their respective percentage interests. The Company shall be dissolved upon the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the election to dissolve the Company made in writing by the Manager with the consent of the members.

In accordance with the Amended or Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated August 22, 2007 (the “Agreement”), the members have agreed to contribute, in cash, an additional $12,400,000 to the capital of the Company, as and when required, as determined by the Manager. In addition, no member shall have any liability to restore any negative balance in its capital account.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.  Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company is an investment company as described in ASC 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. The Company carries its investments and certain liabilities at fair value.

The Company acquired APRO through Sentinel White Plains LLC, a wholly-owned limited liability company, on September 18, 2007. Sentinel White Plains LLC holds the assets and liabilities of the properties formerly owned by APRO through wholly-owned single-asset limited partnerships or limited liability companies. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are consolidated with those of the Company. All significant transactions and balances between the Company and these subsidiaries have been eliminated.

b. 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 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates subject to material change in the near term include the fair value of real estate owned, fair value of mortgage notes, bonds, and credit facilities, and fair value of derivatives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

c. Real Estate Property Valuation - Investment in real estate properties is reported at fair value. At December 31, 2018, the fair value of the investment in real estate properties is equal to the value determined by independent appraisals or determined by contracts or bona-fide offers. The estimated fair value of the underlying real estate is determined quarterly by the methods described in Note 7. No provision is made for depreciation of the historical cost of the real estate properties; however, the effects of actual physical deterioration or obsolescence, if any, were considered in applying the methods used in estimating fair value. Valuations are prepared by the investment advisor’s valuation group and represent their best judgment based upon a process of evaluating the current and future economic and market conditions and are approved by management.

SENTINEL OMAHA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended December 31, 2018

The aggregate unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments in real estate represents the net change between the fair value and the cost basis of the Company’s investments in real estate. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment in real estate for the current year also reflects the difference between the current fair value and the prior year recorded amount and is included in the consolidated statement of operations.

The fair values do not necessarily represent the prices at which the real estate investments would sell because market prices can only be determined by negotiating between a willing buyer and a willing seller.

Determination of fair value involves numerous estimates and subjective judgments that are subject to change in response to current and future economic and market conditions, including, among other things, demand for residential apartments, competition, and operating cost levels such as labor, energy costs and real estate taxes. Judgments regarding these factors are not subject to precise quantification or verification and may change from time to time as economic and market factors change and such changes may be material to the fair value presented.

Expenditures for improvements which, in the opinion of the Manager, increase the fair value of the real estate owned, generally renewals and betterments, are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

d.     Cash and Cash Equivalents - For financial reporting purposes, overnight investments and short-term deposits with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. At times, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance with financial institutions may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. As of December 31, 2018, the Company maintains its cash balances with three major financial institutions and those cash balances exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits by $5,991,644.

e.     Restricted Cash and Cash Held in Escrow by Lenders - Includes restricted deposits accounts maintained pursuant to the Company’s debt agreements and interest rate swap agreements.

f.     Deferred Financing Costs - Costs incurred in connection with the unsecured credit facility are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related debt agreement. These costs have been fully amortized as of December 31, 2018.

g.     Derivative Financial Instruments - To manage or hedge its interest rate risk on its bonds and mortgage notes payable, the Company may enter into interest rate swap and cap agreements, which meet the definition of a derivative and are marked to fair value. Fair values of these derivatives are provided by counterparties and are recorded in the statement of assets and liabilities. The fair value of derivatives is equal to the premium paid, however, for the quarter in which they are acquired. The change in value is recorded in the statement of operations.

h.     Mortgage Notes and Bonds Payable - Mortgage notes and bonds payable owed by the Company are reported at fair value. The Manager has determined that the fair value of variable rate loans approximates its carrying value, due to the loan bearing interest at a variable rate, which is comparable to debt instruments currently available with similar terms and remaining maturities. Financial costs associated with such debt are expensed as incurred. The difference between the current fair value and the prior year fair value is reflected as a component of operations in the net unrealized depreciation on fair value of mortgages notes and bonds payable section of the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended December 31, 2018

i.     Rental Income - Leases at residential properties generally have terms of one year or less and rental income is recognized when payment is due pursuant to the terms of the leases. Reimbursements for utilities and other expense recoveries are recorded as revenue when earned.

j.    Income Taxes - Generally, there is no provision for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as each member is responsible for reporting its allocable share of the income, gains, losses and credits of the Company. Generally, the Company’s U.S. tax returns are subject to examination by federal, state, and local authorities for a period of three years from the latter of the due date of such returns or the actual date the returns were filed.

k.    Sales of Investment in Real Estate - Sales of real estate owned are recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, applicable to sales of real estate. Gain or loss on sales of real estate are recorded when title is conveyed to the buyer, subject to the buyer’s financial commitment being sufficient to provide economic substance to the sale and the Company having no substantial continuing involvement with the buyer. Net realized gain or loss on investments in real estate, if any, is the Company’s share of cash proceeds from disposition of investments in real estate less the cost basis and transaction costs.

l.     Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) which modified disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. ASU 2018-13 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2018-13.

3.	REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS
	On January 9, 2018, investment in Woodbury was sold for $22,750,000 in an all cash transaction. The cost basis of the property on the date of sale was $14,126,944 and resulted in a net gain of $8,247,596 after transaction closing costs of $375,460.

7. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

The accounting guidance for Fair Value Measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in determining fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value is calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.

The three levels of fair value hierarchy are described below:

● Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

● Level 2 – Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities or quoted prices in less active, dealer or broker markets;

● Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and are unobservable.

The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Accordingly, when available, the Company measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. If market data is not readily available, fair value is based upon other significant unobservable inputs such as inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in valuing the investments. Investments valued using unobservable inputs are classified to the lowest level of any input that is most significant to the valuation. Thus, a valuation may be classified in Level 3 even though the valuation may include significant inputs that are readily observable.

The values of real estate properties have been prepared giving consideration to the income and sales comparison approaches of estimating property value. The income approach estimates an income stream for a property and discounts this income plus a reversion (presumed sale) into a present value at a risk adjusted rate. Yield rates and growth assumptions utilized in this approach are derived from market transactions as well as other financial and industry data. The sales comparison approach compares recent transactions to the appraised property. Adjustments are made for dissimilarities which typically provide a range of value. Generally, the income approach carries the most weight in the value reconciliation. The Company’s real estate properties are generally classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The mortgage notes payable are all variable rate loans at December 31, 2018; therefore they are reported at amortized cost.

The following table shows quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs related to Level 3 fair value measurement used at December 31, 2018:
