                               J. 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.

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

(a)  The Company, on September 11, 1996, closed a loan with a bank in the
   amount of $4,000,000.  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.

         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.

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.
