29 East MacArthur, LLC
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements
September 30, 2017 and 2016


Note 1 - Description of the Business

The accompanying unaudited financial statements include the historical accounts of 29 East MacArthur, LLC, (collectively referred to as “MacArthur” or the “Company”) as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. On October 2, 2017, certain assets and liabilities of the Company were sold (the “Transaction”) to IMH Financial Corporation in an arms-length transaction for a purchase price of approximately $36 million.

Organization and Nature of Operations

The Company was organized on August 4, 1997 as a limited liability company pursuant to the laws of the state of California for constructing, owning and operating a 35-room hotel, restaurant, spa and conference center located in Sonoma, California. The hotel opened for business on September 26, 1998 doing business as MacArthur Place. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company completed an expansion project which added 29 guest rooms and enlarged the restaurant and spa operations. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had 29 members, one of which is the Company’s manager. Company transactions with the manager are described in Note 5. In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit to certain customers. The Company’s operating agreement provides that the Company will dissolve on July 31, 2042 unless earlier dissolved. As a limited liability company, each member’s liability is limited to amounts reflected in their respective member accounts.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operations for the periods presented, have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. The Company uses historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances to form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains deposits at various financial institutions. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and periodically throughout the year, the balances in these accounts are in excess of federally insured limits.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues derived from hotel room rentals are recognized as services are provided. Food and beverage revenue is derived from the sale of prepared food and beverage and select retail items and is recognized at the time of sale. Revenue derived from gift card sales is recognized at the time the gift card is redeemed. Until the redemption of gift cards occurs, the outstanding balances on such cards are included as current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. Advance deposits received from guests for hotel rooms or for event facility rentals are recorded as deferred revenue in guest deposits in the accompanying balance sheets, and are recognized as income at the time service is provided for the related deposit.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company maintains allowances for credit losses for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectibility of specific customer accounts: customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. Past due balances over 90 days and other higher risk amounts are reviewed individually for collectibility. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Inventories

Inventories consist of food, beverage and spa retail items stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. The Company records an obsolescence reserve if inventories are deemed no longer recoverable. There was no inventory obsolescence reserve as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Land

Not depreciated
Land improvements, such as paving
 
15 years
Buildings and improvements
 
30 years
Furniture and fixtures
 
5 years
Computers and equipment
 
3 years
Total depreciation for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $395 thousand and, $414 thousand, respectively.

The Company evaluates its property and equipment for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. Accounting standards require that if the sum of the future cash flows expected to result from a company’s asset, undiscounted and without interest charges, is less than the reported value of the asset, an asset impairment must be recognized in the financial statements. The amount of impairment to recognize is calculated by subtracting the fair value of the asset from the reported value of the asset. The Company does not believe that any indicators of impairment exist as of September 30, 2017.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred; major renewals and betterments are capitalized. When items of property or equipment are sold or retired, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income.

Marketing and Advertising

The Company expenses marketing and advertising costs as they are incurred. Marketing and advertising expense was $115 thousand and $146 thousand, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and is included in general and administrative expense on the statements of operations.

Sales Taxes

The Company collects and remits taxes assessed by different governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent with a revenue-producing transaction between the Company and its customers. These taxes may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, and occupancy taxes. The Company reports collection of these taxes on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Income Taxes

As a limited liability company, the Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company’s taxable income or loss is allocated to its members in accordance with their respective percentage ownership. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements. The Company is subject to a limited liability company tax and a limited liability company fee based on gross receipts to the state of California. Management believes the Company has no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09") which states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and may be applied either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis. Subsequent to the issuance of the May 2014 guidance, several clarifications and updates have been issued on this topic, the most recent of which was issued in December 2016. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, that ASU 2014-09 and any amendments thereto, will have on its financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). ASU 2014-15 introduces an explicit requirement for management to assess and provide certain disclosures if there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results, financial position or disclosures.
In July 2015, as part of its simplification initiative, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring entities to remeasure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This ASU does not apply to inventory measured using the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method. The Company is required to adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2017. This standard is required to be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual period. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”) which includes a lessee accounting model that recognizes two types of leases - finance leases and operating leases. The standard requires that a lessee recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on its classification as a finance or an operating lease. The standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial statements.

(1) The note payable was paid off in connection with the Transaction, as described in Note 1.

Note 4 - Retirement Plan

The Company sponsors a 401(k) deferred compensation plan for the benefit of eligible employees. The plan allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their annual compensation, pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s policy is to match 25% of employee contributions to the plan up to a maximum of 10% of the employee’s compensation. Employer contributions to the plan were $19 thousand and $18 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expense on the statements of operations. In connection with the Transaction as described in Note 1, the plan was frozen.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

The operating agreement requires the Company to pay the manager, who is a member of the Company, a management fee equal to 10% of the Company’s “net distributable funds” as defined by the operating agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, $29 thousand and $30 thousand, respectively, in such fees were incurred by the Company. No management fees were unpaid as of September 30, 2017 and $14 thousand remain unpaid as of December 31, 2016 and are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

Note 6 - Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through December 8, 2017, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

2017 California Wildfires

In mid-October 2017, several areas surrounding the hotel were impacted by wildfires that caused damage to numerous nearby structures and caused the displacement of thousands of individuals.  While the hotel did not sustain any structural damage, it evacuated its staff and guests and shut down its operations for approximately one week.  Current management is evaluating the financial impact from this event.
