W. MAYS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Accounting Records and Use of Estimates: The accounting records are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of the Company's financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported consolidated statements of income and retained earnings, comprehensive income, and the consolidated balance sheets and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. The October 31, 2005 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's latest Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending July 31, 2006. 2. Income Per Share of Common Stock: Income per share has been computed by dividing the net income for the periods by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods, adjusted for the purchase of treasury stock. Shares used in computing income per share were 2,015,780 for the three months ended October 31, 2005 and October 31, 2004. 3. Comprehensive Income: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", establishes standards for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components. It requires all items that are required to be recognized as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other income statement information. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by and distributions to shareholders. 4. Marketable Securities: The Company categorizes marketable securities as either trading, available- for-sale or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in income. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Dividends and interest income are accrued as earned. - 6- As of October 31, 2005, the Company's marketable securities were classified as follows: Gross Gross Unrealized Unrealized Fair Cost Gains Losses Value ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Current: Held-to-maturity: Certificate of deposit $45,737 $- $- $45,737 ============= ============= ============= ============= Noncurrent: Available-for-sale: Equity securities $810,250 $1,916,188 $- $2,726,438 ============= ============= ============= ============= Investment income consists of the following: Three Months Ended October 31, ------------- ------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- Interest income $777 $3,633 Dividend income 19,675 17,739 ------------- ------------- Total $20,452 $21,372 ============= ============= 5. Financial Instruments and Credit Risk Concentrations: Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of marketable securities, cash and cash equivalents and receivables. Marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and instruments to minimize risk. The Company derives rental income from forty-five tenants, of which one tenant accounted for 16.18% and another tenant accounted for 11.63% of rental income during the three months ended October 31, 2005. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of rental income during the same period. The Company has two irrevocable Letters of Credit totaling $137,500 at October 31, 2005 and July 31, 2005, provided by two tenants. - 7- 6.

The loan is secured by a first mortgage lien covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant, in a certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property. The outstanding balance of the loan, totaling $1,355,555 will become due and payable on April 1, 2007. (b) The Company, on December 13, 2000, closed a loan with a bank in the amount of $3,500,000. The loan is secured by a second position leasehold mortgage covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company as tenant in a certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property. The outstanding balance of the loan, totaling $2,739,452, will become due and payable on August 1, 2006. The Company has the option to extend this loan for an additional five (5) years. The interest rate for the extended period will be 2.25% above the 5-year treasury rate in effect on the first maturity date. It is the intention of the Company to exercise its option to extend the loan for the additional five (5) years. Payments are to be made, in arrears, on the first day of each and every month calculated during the ten (10) year period of the term loan, at the sum of the interest rate plus amortization sufficient to fully liquidate the loan over a fifteen (15) year period. As additional collateral security, the Company will conditionally assign to the bank all leases and rents on the premises, or portions thereof, whether now existing or hereafter consummated. The Company has an option to prepay principal, in whole or in part, plus interest accrued thereon, at any time during the term, without premium or penalty. Other provisions of the loan agreement provide certain restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness on the Jamaica property and the sale or transfer of the Company's ground lease interest in the premises. (c) The Company, on May 7, 2004, closed a loan with an affiliated corporation owned by members, including certain directors of the Company, of the family of the late Joe Weinstein, former Chairman of the Board of Directors, in the amount of $1,350,000. The term of the loan is for a period of five (5) years at an interest rate of 9.00% per annum. Interest and amortization of principal are paid quarterly based on a fifteen (15) year level amortization period. The constant quarterly payments of interest and principal are $40,316. The funds were used to purchase a one-half interest in a property that is part of the Company's Brooklyn, New York building (Bond Street building). The outstanding balance of the loan, totaling $1,056,007, will become due and payable on April 1, 2009. (d) On June 2, 1999, the existing first mortgage loan balance on the Fishkill, New York property was extended for a period of five years. Under the terms of the extension agreement the annual interest rate was reduced from 9% to 8.25% and the interest and principal payments were made in constant monthly amounts based upon a fifteen (15) year payout period. On August 19, 2004, the Company extended the loan for an additional forty-two (42) months, with an option to convert the loan to a seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. The payments for the extended period of forty-two (42) months will be interest only on the amount owing at a floating rate per annum equal to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 2.25%, but not less than 3.40%. The payments for the seven-year permanent mortgage loan would be on a seventeen (17) year level amortization, plus interest. The interest rate on the permanent loan would be a fixed rate equal to the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York`s seven-year (7) fixed interest rate plus 2.25% per annum. (See Note 6(e)). - 8- (e) The Company, on August 19, 2004, closed a loan with a bank for a $12,000,000 multiple draw term loan. This loan finances seventy-five (75%) percent of the cost of capital improvements for an existing lease to a tenant and capital improvements for future tenant leases at the Company's Brooklyn, New York (Bond Street building) and Fishkill, New York properties. The loan also refinances the existing mortgage on the Company's Fishkill, New York property which matured on July 1, 2004 (see Note 6 (d)). The Company will have three and one-half years to draw down amounts under this loan. The loan consists of: a) a permanent, first mortgage loan to refinance an existing first mortgage loan affecting the Fishkill Property (the "First Permanent Loan") (see Note 6(d)), b) a permanent subordinate mortgage loan in the amount of $1,870,000 (the "Second Permanent Loan"), and c) multiple, successively subordinate loans in the amount $8,295,274 ("Subordinate Building Loans"). The loan is structured in two phases: 1) a forty-two month loan with payments of interest only at the floating one-month LIBOR rate plus 2.25% per annum, but not less than 3.40%; and 2) after the forty-two month period, the loan would convert to a seven-year (7) permanent mortgage loan on a seventeen (17) year level amortization, plus interest, at the option of the Company. The interest rate on the permanent loan would be at a fixed rate equal to the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York's seven-year (7) fixed interest rate plus 2.25% per annum at the time of conversion. As of August 19, 2004, the Company refinanced the existing mortgage on the Company's Fishkill, New York property, which balance was $1,834,726 and took down an additional $2,820,000 for capital improvements for two tenants at the Company's Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York. The outstanding balance as of October 31, 2005 was $4,654,726. (f)On February 18, 2005, the Company secured financing in the amount of $1,700,000, from a bank whose president is a director of the Company. The loan will be used to finance the construction costs and brokerage commissions associated with the leasing of 28,801 square feet for office use to a tenant at the Company's Jowein building, in Brooklyn, New York. The loan is a multiple draw demand loan, for a period of five (5) years, and is self-amortizing, at an interest rate of 6.50% per annum. (g)The Company, on July 22, 2005, closed a loan with a bank for $1,200,000. The loan will be used to finance the construction costs and brokerage commissions associated with the leasing of 15,000 square feet for office use to a tenant at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York. The loan will be secured by the assignment of lease of 15,000 square feet. The loan is for a period of five (5) years and is self-amortizing, at a floating interest rate of prime plus 1.00% per annum. - 9- 7.

The note is prepayable in whole or in part at any time without penalty. The funds were used towards the purchase of a one-half interest in a parcel which is part of the Company's Brooklyn, New York properties. The total purchase price was $1,500,000. The constant quarterly payments of interest are $18,750. 9. Unbilled Receivables and Rental Income: Unbilled receivables represent the excess of scheduled rental income recognized on a straight-line basis over rental income as it becomes receivable according to the provisions of each lease. 10. Employees' Retirement Plan: The Company sponsors a noncontributory Money Purchase Plan covering substantially all of its employees. Operations were charged $72,864 and $70,003 as contributions to the Plan for the three months ended October 31, 2005, and October 31, 2004, respectively. -10- 11. Cash Flow Information: For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to consist of short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, which are readily convertible into cash. Supplemental disclosure: Three Months Ended October 31, --------------------------- 2005 2004 --------------------------- Interest paid, net of capitalized interest of $7,683 (2005) $225,739 $155,348 Income taxes paid $100 $11,286 12. Capitalization: The Company is capitalized entirely through common stock with identical voting rights and rights to liquidation. Treasury stock is recorded at cost and consists of 162,517 shares at October 31, 2005 and at July 31, 2005. 13. Contingencies: There are various lawsuits and claims pending against the Company. It is the opinion of management that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. -11- J. W. MAYS, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Results of Operations: Three Months Ended October 31, 2005 Compared to the Three Months Ended October 31, 2004: In the three months ended October 31, 2005, the Company reported net income of $127,309, or $.06 per share. In the comparable three months ended October 31, 2004, the Company reported net income of $114,876, or $.06 per share. Revenues in the current three months increased to $3,340,919 from $3,156,943 in the comparable 2004 three months. The increase in revenues was due to the Company's leasing to two office tenants at its Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York, and the leasing to a retail tenant at its Jamaica, New York building, partially offset by a tenant vacating the Levittown, New York premises in September 2004. Real estate operating expenses in the current three months increased to $1,842,091 from $1,781,134 in the comparable 2004 three months primarily due to increases in real estate taxes, utilities, and lease commission expense, partially offset by decreases in payroll costs, insurance costs and rental expense. Administrative and general expenses in the current three months increased to $700,012 from $694,628 in the comparable 2004 three months primarily due to increases in payroll costs, partially offset by decreases in legal and professional costs. Depreciation and amortization expense in the current three months increased to $379,200 from $323,810 in the comparable 2004 three months primarily due to depreciation on the additional improvements to the Brooklyn, New York and the Jamaica, New York properties and acquisitions of the three parcels in Brooklyn, New York. Interest expense and other expenses in the current three months exceeded investment income by $212,307 and by $135,495 in the comparable 2004 three months. The increase was due primarily to increased interest expense on the additional loans with banks, a note payable from a director, partially offset by scheduled repayments of debt. Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Company has been operating as a real estate enterprise since the discontinuance of the retail department store segment of its operations on January 3, 1989. Management considers current working capital and borrowing capabilities adequate to cover the Company's planned operating and capital requirements. The Company's cash and cash equivalents amounted to $700,014 at October 31, 2005. In March 2005 and in October 2005, the Company leased 15,000 square feet and 10,000 square feet, respectively, for office use to two tenants at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York. This space was a portion of the space previously leased to the City of New York Department of Finance, which vacated the premises in June 2004. Rent commenced in October 2005 for both tenants. The Company, in August 2005, entered into two lease agreements with an existing tenant at the Company's 9 Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York. One lease agreement is for 12,000 square feet and will be used for offices and the rent is anticipated to commence in March 2006. The other lease agreement is for 2,505 square feet and will be used as part of the tenant's retail operation, and rent commenced in November 2005. The Company has been informed by a tenant, who occupies 47,100 square feet of rental space at its Jamaica, New York property, that the tenant would not be exercising its option to extend its lease agreement. The tenant will vacate the premises on February 28, 2006. The annual loss in rental income to the Company will be approximately $575,000. The Company is actively seeking, through brokers, tenants to occupy the space when it is vacated. -12- The lease with the tenant that leased the entire premises at the Company's Circleville, Ohio building, under a triple-net lease, lease extension and modification expired September 30, 2005. The tenant entered into a further lease extension and modification agreement for part of the premises, 75,000 square feet, for a period of five years, with a right to cancel after three years, to expire on November 11, 2010. The Company has engaged brokers to pursue tenants for the remaining 118,000 square feet of space available for leasing. On October 11, 2005, a tenant in our Jowein building filed for Chapter 11 protection. This tenant is expected to account for 6% of our projected annual income for the year ending July 31, 2006. While we cannot ascertain what the effect of this filing will be on the Company, cash flows would be adversely affected by approximately $70,000 per month should the tenant reject the lease and vacate the premises. The tenant at the Company's Fishkill, New York property, whose lease expired on November 26, 2005, did not renew the lease and vacated the premises. The annual loss in rental income from this tenant is approximately $180,000. The Company is actively seeking, through brokers, tenants to occupy the vacated space. Cash Flows From Operating Activities: Prepaid Expenses: Expenditures for the three months ended October 31, 2005 increased by $38,714 compared to the period ended October 31, 2004, due to increases in insurance premiums paid offset by decreases in real estate taxes paid. Payroll and Other Accrued Liabilities: The Company paid $12,925 for commissions incurred in order to lease space at the Company's properties in the three months ended October 31, 2005. The original amount of the brokerage commissions was $1,092,665. As of October 31, 2005, $911,102 had been paid. Cash Flows From Investing Activities: The Company had an expenditure of $472,444 for the three months ended October 31, 2005 for the renovation of 15,000 square feet for office space for a tenant at its Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York. The cost of the project was $1,054,989 and was completed in September 2005. The Company had expenditures of $94,703 for the three months ended October 31, 2005 for the renovations to an existing tenant at the Company's Jamaica, New York property. The tenant is currently on a month to month lease agreement and upon completion of the renovations the lease agreement will become a ten- year lease with increased rental income. The total cost of the project was $234,511 and was completed in December 2005. Cash Flows From Financing Activities: Lease security: The Company increased tenant security deposits by $33,256 during the three months ended October 31, 2005, due to the leasing of space to three tenants at the Company's Brooklyn, New York properties. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks: The Company uses both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to finance its capital requirements. These transactions expose the Company to market risk related to changes in interest rates. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. At October 31, 2005, the Company had fixed-rate debt of $8,441,798 and variable-rate debt of $5,814,726. Because of the extension of the Fishkill, New York property loan, the Bond Street building, Brooklyn, New York and the Jowein building, Brooklyn, New York loans (presently with balances of $1,834,726, $2,820,000, and $1,160,000, respectively), if interest rates were to change 100 basis points, the effect on net income from operations and future cash flows would be a decrease, should the rates increase, or an increase, should the rates decline, of $58,147 for these loans. -13- Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements: This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements which include assumptions about future market conditions, operations and financial results. These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties. They are made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company's actual results, performance or achievements in the future could differ significantly from the results, performance or achievements discussed or implied in such forward-looking statements herein and in prior Securities and Exchange Commission filings by the Company. The Company assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements or to advise of changes in the assumptions on which they were based. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, changes in the competitive environment of the Company, general economic and business conditions, industry trends, changes in government rules and regulations and environmental rules and regulations. Statements concerning interest rates and other financial instrument fair values and their estimated contribution to the Company's future results of operations are based upon market information as of a specific date. This market information is often a function of significant judgment and estimation. Further, market interest rates are subject to significant volatility. Controls and Procedures: The Company's management reviewed the Company's internal controls and procedures and the effectiveness of these controls. As of October 31, 2005, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in its periodic SEC filings. There was no change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors during the Company's last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and therefore there were no corrective actions taken. Our Accounting Department is comprised of four persons. Due to such a limited number of persons, a complete segregation of all of the duties as to which the department is responsible is not possible. In order to make sure that the inability to segregate all duties does not affect our timely and accurate financial reporting, we need to remain vigilant in maintaining compensating controls. These compensating controls will continue to be monitored in order to assure us that our internal controls over financial reporting remain at a high level despite the limited number of accounting department personnel. -14- Part II - Other Information Item 6 - Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (a) List of Exhibits: Sequentially Exhibit Numbered Number Exhibit Page (2) Plan of acquisition, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation or succession.
