The Company may, from time to time, make written or oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and its reports to stockholders. Such forward-looking statements are made based on management's belief as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management pursuant to "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company's actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, competition from other real estate companies, the ability of the Company to obtain financing for projects, and the continuing operations of tenants.

PART I

Item 1. Business.

Security Land and Development Corporation (the "Company") was organized and incorporated in Georgia in 1970. The Company, including its wholly owned subsidiaries, the Royal Palms Motel, Inc., SLDC, LLC, SLDC2, LLC and SLDC III, LLC, has developed two (2) primary business activities, these activities being (1) the acquisition of undeveloped land for investment purposes and sale at a future date or development of the land and sale after developed and, (2) the acquisition or development of income producing properties for investment purposes and income from leasing activities. The Company's principal office is in Augusta, Georgia and principal activities are in Augusta, Georgia, Evans, Georgia, and North Augusta, South Carolina.

The Company's primary development and income producing activities are:

1.	Retail strip center on 14.24 acres on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia (the "National Plaza"). Approximately 56,000 square feet is leased to Publix Supermarkets, Inc. ("Publix") who operates a retail food supermarket. The remaining approximately 13,000 square feet of rental space is available for lease to additional tenants. At September 30, 2018, approximately 9,100 square feet of this remaining space was leased.
2.	An outparcel of National Plaza that is 0.89 acres and is leased commercially under a 20-year ground-lease to an auto-repair service operation.
3.	Long-term ground lease ("Evans Ground Lease") on approximately 17 acres in Evans, Georgia at the intersection of Washington Road and Industrial Park Drive to Lowe's, a national home improvement retailer.
4.	Commercial building on Wrightsboro Road in Augusta, Georgia. Approximately 25,000 square feet is currently leased to a retailer. The building includes an additional 27,000 square feet of warehouse space that is for lease as of September 30, 2018.

-2-

The Company owns certain other properties that are more fully described in Item 2, "Properties."

In January of 2007 construction of the Evans Ground Lease was completed and the Company began collecting full monthly rent. The Evans Ground Lease represents approximately 36% of the Company's net leased assets at September 30, 2018. Rent revenue, including monthly rent, recognition of previously deferred revenue and property taxes from the Evans Ground Lease represented 38% and 39% of the Company's total gross rent revenue for the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company also expects the long-term ground lease in Evans, Georgia to provide a substantial portion of the Company's revenue from leasing in future years.

Construction of the National Plaza was completed in May 1995 and the lease with Publix became effective May 15, 1995. National Plaza represents approximately 36% of the Company's net leased assets at September 30, 2018. Rent revenue, including monthly rent, recognition of previously deferred revenue, property taxes and common area maintenance from the lease with Publix Supermarkets, Inc. represented 35% and 32% of the Company's total gross rent revenue for the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with WSQ, LLC, a Georgia Limited Liability Company, for the sale of National Plaza along with two adjoining outparcels, located on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia. The closing of the sale is estimated to occur on or around December 15, 2018, or such earlier date as may be agreed upon by the parties. See also Note 1- Subsequent events. The National Plaza currently represents approximately 53% of the Company's revenues. See Item 2, "Properties" for additional information related to these properties and the lease agreements.

In September of 2015 the Company purchased a Commercial building on 3.5 acres of land located on Wrightsboro Road in Augusta, Georgia. The building is currently partially leased to a local retailer. The Wrightsboro Road property represents approximately 28% of the Company's net leased assets at September 30, 2018. Rent revenue, including monthly rent, recognition of previously deferred revenue, property taxes and common area maintenance from this lease represented 9% of the Company's total gross rent revenue for the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

The Company owns additional undeveloped land parcels in and around the Augusta, Georgia and North Augusta, South Carolina area that are being held for investment purposes. Management of the Company believes that the market value of the property owned is greater than its carrying value. The Company presently has five employees, four of whom are officers and/or stockholders of the Company.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The Company, as a smaller reporting company, is not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 2. Properties.

The Company owns developed and undeveloped real estate in several locations in the State of Georgia and one undeveloped parcel in the State of South Carolina. There are no limitations on the percentage of assets which may be invested in any one property or type of property. The Company acquires various properties for investment purposes and for leasing activities.

The Company currently owns the following properties in fee simple interest:

1.	Retail strip center on approximately 14.24 acres on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia (the "National Plaza"). See also Note 1- Subsequent events.

8.	Commercial Building on approximately 3.5 acres on Wrightsboro Road in Augusta, Georgia.

Description of real estate and operating data:

The Company holds approximately 12.54 acres of land in Evans, Georgia on Belair Road and North Belair Road Extension, at Washington Road. The land was purchased in five transactions. Initially, the Company acquired a two-thirds interest in 7.09 acres of land, with the remaining one-third interest held by two individuals, one of which is a principal stockholder and member of the Board of Directors. In 2000, the remaining one-third interest in the 7.09 acres of land was acquired from two individuals that each owned a one-sixth interest. One of the individuals that owned a one-sixth interest in the property is a principal stockholder and member of the Board of Directors of the Company. The aggregate purchase price of the land was $522,846. A third transaction, in 2000, was a purchase of approximately 3.86 acres in Evans, Georgia adjacent to the purchased property previously described. The land was jointly owned by principal stockholders and members of the Board of Directors of the Company and their families, and was acquired by the Company from these individuals. The purchase price of the land was $371,970. In a fourth transaction, the Company purchased an additional 1.03 acres for $342,122 on Old Evans Road in Evans, Georgia that adjoins the above-described properties. And in the fifth and final transaction in 2004, the Company acquired a corner parcel of 0.79 acres adjoining the previously described three parcels from a member of the Board of Directors. The cost of the parcel acquired in 2004, was $467,874. The Company's net book value of the investment properties acquired in these five transactions of $1,679,612, including the cost of improvements thereon, is approximately 15% of the Company's total assets at September 30, 2018. The Company has a Federal tax basis in the investment property of $1,044,109. The Company signed a long-term ground lease for the development of a Lowe's home improvement store on this property as well as the 4.61 acres, discussed below, during 2006. The Company began earning revenue related to the long-term ground lease on the approximately 18 acres in Columbia County, Georgia during the 3^rd Quarter of 2006. The Company received $20,833 in monthly rent until the January 2007 expiration of the development period. Following the expiration of the development period, the lease requires annual rental payments of $500,000 for the first 5 years then increasing 5% in years 6, 11, and 16. The lease has an option to renew at year 21 and another option every 5 years thereafter for a possible total lease term of 50 years. The lease provides for the tenant to pay for insurance and property taxes. A note payable to an insurance company is collateralized with the property and an assignment of the long-term ground lease. The note is payable in monthly installments of $17,896 including interest, through May 1, 2027, and bears interest of a fixed rate of 5.85%. The balance of the loan was $1,457,207 at September 30, 2018. Property taxes paid on this property and the 4.61 acres described above in 2018 totaled $132,358.

In 2001, the Company purchased an office building with land totaling approximately 4.61 acres located on Old Evans Road in Evans, Georgia. The property was purchased with replacement property funds held by a third party from a tax-deferred like-kind exchange transaction during 2000 of $511,726 and with approximately $250,000 of proceeds from a note payable. The office building was demolished during 2006. The Company's net book value in this property is $703,061 at September 30, 2018. For tax purposes, the Company recognized a loss of $236,859 on the demolition of the building in 2006. The Company's Federal tax basis in the property is approximately $173,198 at September 30, 2018. There is no outstanding debt on this property at September 30, 2018. Prior to the demolition, the property, excluding land cost, was being depreciated for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over 39 years. The property adjoins the 12.77 acres of land in Evans, Georgia. In July 2009, the Company sold an easement consisting of approximately .52 acres of the total Evans Ground Lease tract for $300,000. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $195,000. The proceeds were used by the Company to pay down debt related to an outstanding note payable collateralized by the Evans Ground Lease and related land and to compensate the Evans Ground Lease tenant per the related lease agreement. The Company's management does not feel that the easement sale had any adverse impact on the existing lease or the Company's ability to lease the land going forward. In July 2013, the Company sold approximately .24 acres of the total Evans Ground Lease tract for $156,000. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $108,000. The proceeds were used by the Company to pay down debt related to an outstanding note payable collateralized by the Evans Ground Lease and related land and to compensate the Evans Ground Lease tenant per the related lease agreement.

The Company's net book value of National Plaza, $2,328,469 at September 30, 2018, amounts to approximately 21% of the Company's total assets at September 30, 2018.

Construction of National Plaza was completed in May 1995. National Plaza has 69,000 square feet of available lease space. National Plaza was constructed with the intention of being operated as a retail strip center and is considered suitable and adequate for such purpose. The Company has leased 56,000 square feet to Publix, which, as National Plaza's anchor tenant, operates a retail food supermarket. The Company, as lessor, has a twenty-year lease agreement with Publix. The lease became effective May 15, 1995. The lease provides for annual rentals of $463,200, and for the Company to receive 1.25% of this Publix store's annual gross sales in excess of approximately $37 million. For the Company's years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the supermarket had not achieved this sales level. The lease also provides for Publix to reimburse the Company for property taxes paid on the facility on a pro rata basis of the space occupied by Publix. For 2018, the amount billed was $57,748. The original lease term expired in June of 2015 and the tenant exercised an option for an additional 5 years. At the lessee's option the lease may be extended in five-year increments for an additional 15 years on substantially the same lease terms. As part of the lease agreement, Publix contributed approximately $493,000 to the construction of National Plaza. The Company capitalized this contribution and recognized the related revenue over the original twenty-year life of the lease.

The Company financed National Plaza with a $4,300,000 loan, with interest that was fixed at 7.875%. Annual principal and interest payments totaled $427,596. This note was paid in full in March 2015. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has no outstanding debt on this property, however, it is being used as collateral for other Company financing as described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 3 - Notes Payable. The property is located on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia. Washington Road in Augusta is the location of numerous business establishments, including competing retail strip centers, and is a corridor for a high volume of traffic, providing potential customers for the Company's tenants. The Company's operation of National Plaza is dependent upon management's ability to maintain an anchor tenant and to maintain a high occupancy of the 13,000 square feet available for lease to other tenants. The Company competes with other retail strip centers in the area to maintain stable occupancy. Management of the Company believes that the location and visibility of National Plaza provides for favorable conditions for maintaining occupancy. At September 30, 2018, the Company had leased 70% of the 13,000 square feet not leased to Publix. These individual leases have terms averaging five years, with monthly lease payments including contributions for common area maintenance ("CAM"), real estate taxes and insurance ranging from $1,517 to $6,761. Following is selected statistical information regarding National Plaza at September 30, 2018:

Occupancy rate - 94%	(Publix is the only tenant to occupy 10% or more of the leasable square feet.)

Effective rental rates -

	Square Feet	Rental Per

The percentage of gross annual rents represented by expiring leases as presented above was calculated as if each lease was in effect for the full twelve-month fiscal period. On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with WSQ, LLC, a Georgia Limited Liability Company, for the sale of National Plaza along with two adjoining outparcels, located on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia. The closing of the sale is estimated to occur on or around December 15, 2018, or such earlier date as may be agreed upon by the parties. See Note 1 - Subsequent events and Note 2 - Investment Properties.

The Company's Federal tax basis in National Plaza at September 30, 2018, excluding land and before accumulated depreciation is $4,547,915. Federal tax basis accumulated depreciation is $2,909,477. Property taxes on National Plaza totaled $89,339 in 2018. In June of 2015, the Company sold approximately 1 acre of vacant land previously included as part of National Plaza adjoining Stanley Drive. The proceeds were utilized as part of a like-kind-exchange to purchase the commercial building on Wrightsboro Road described below.

During 2002, the Company purchased a house on Stanley Drive in Augusta, Georgia. The property was purchased for $145,847. The property was sold in June of 2015 and the proceeds were utilized as part of a like-kind-exchange to purchase the commercial building on Wrightsboro Road described below.

During 2007, the Company purchased approximately 14.57 acres of undeveloped land for $2,339,678 held for future development on Edgefield Road near I-20 in North Augusta, South Carolina. At September 30, 2018, there is no outstanding debt on the property. During 2008, the Company purchased an additional 1 acre of undeveloped land for $160,000 for future development adjoining the 14.57 acres. At September 30, 2018, there is no outstanding debt on this additional 1 acre. During 2008, the Company purchased an additional 1 acre of undeveloped land for $350,000 held for future development adjoining the 14.57 acres. During 2008, the Company purchased an additional 2.81 acres of undeveloped land for $421,500 held for future development adjoining the 14.57 acres. In total, the undeveloped land held for future development on Edgefield Road near I-20 in North Augusta, South Carolina is 19.38 acres. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has no outstanding debt on this property.

In September of 2015, the Company purchased a commercial building consisting of approximately 25,000 square feet of retail space and 27,000 square feet of warehouse space on approximately 3.5 acres of land located on Wrightsboro road. The retail space is currently leased to a local retailer and rent commenced on October 1, 2015. The warehouse space was available for lease as of September 30, 2018. The property was purchased using proceeds from a like-kind exchange from sales in June of 2015 of approximately 1 acre of undeveloped land previously included as part of National Plaza adjoining Stanley Drive and a residential house located on Stanley Drive.

No other property owned by the Company at September 30, 2018, had a book value amounting to 10% or more of the total assets of the Company.

All properties owned by the Company are owned in fee simple interest.

In the opinion of management of the Company, all properties owned by the Company are adequately covered by insurance.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.

Not required.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Company's primary business activities are the acquisition, development and leasing of developed and undeveloped real estate. The objectives of the Company are capital appreciation from real estate investments and income from leasing.

The Company believes that the market value of much of the real estate owned by the Company is greater than its original cost. The Company believes that the continued development and decreasing supply of vacant land in the Augusta, Georgia area has resulted in substantial appreciation in value in many of the Company's investment properties. These appreciated investment properties are available as a source of capital to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies:

Estimates of Useful Lives of Investment Properties for Purposes of Depreciation

Company management has estimated the useful lives of investment properties, except for land, that are leased, and Company management utilizes the straight-line method to compute depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the investment properties. Actual depreciation of investment properties will vary from management's estimates, and the value of investment properties is more directly impacted by market conditions and the physical condition of the investment properties.

Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets for Impairment

Company management evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of investment properties may not be recoverable. In evaluating recoverability, Company management generally estimates future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss is recognized when the expected future cash flows of the asset are less than the carrying amount.

Estimates of Income Tax Rates Applicable to Deferred Taxes

Company management has deferred income taxes through a series of tax-deferred like-kind exchange transactions on certain investment properties and through accelerated depreciation elections on certain other assets. Company management has estimated deferred income tax liabilities of $1,006,252 at September 30, 2018. Actual income taxes that may become due when taxable gains are realized on the sale of assets may differ from management's estimates due to changes in tax laws, the tax status of the Company, or the actual taxable earnings of the Company in the periods the deferred income taxes become due.

Years Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

National Plaza consists of approximately 69,000 square feet. Approximately 56,000 square feet is leased to Publix as the investment property's anchor tenant. See Item 2, "Properties" for additional information regarding the lease agreement with Publix. The remaining 13,000 square feet is available for lease to additional tenants. This additional space was approximately 70% and 80% leased as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Attempts are being made to lease vacant space. Also see Item 2, "Properties" for effective rental rates and lease expirations related to this property. Rent revenue increased slightly as compared with the prior years due to rent increases on the out parcel at National Plaza. In May 2006, the Company entered into a long-term ground lease with Lowes, a national home improvement retailer, with a portion of total monthly rent due during the construction period, which was completed in January 2007. See Item 2, "Properties" for additional information regarding the Evans Ground Lease. Management expects the Evans Ground Lease to continue to provide a substantial portion of the Company's revenues. See also Note 1 - Subsequent events.

Operating expenses decreased by $147,665, (15%) from 2017. Operating costs of the Company consists mainly of the costs of managing National Plaza and property taxes related to the Company's land holding portfolio. This decrease was due primarily to decreased professional fees related to the company's tender offer and non-recurring parking lot repairs and painting at National Plaza completed in 2017. Company management expects operating expenses for 2019 to be less than 2018 expenses. See also Note 1 - Subsequent events.

Interest expense increased by $21,833, 11% from 2017. The Company's interest costs relate to outstanding debt on the Company's land holdings as discussed above in Item 2, "Properties", as well as interest related to deferred financing costs that have been reclassified from amortization expense. Company management expects interest expense for 2019 to decline from interest expense for the current fiscal year as the outstanding debt continues to amortize.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital:

The percentage of current assets to current liabilities was 130% at September 30, 2018, and was 103% at September 30, 2017. Management of the Company expects future liquidity needs of the Company to be funded from rent revenues, sale of properties, refinancing and the appreciation in investment properties (which can be sold or mortgaged, if necessary). See Note 1 - Subsequent events.

Current maturities of notes payable will require the Company to make payments in fiscal year 2018 totaling $407,554. The Company projects that it will be able to fund the payment of its current maturities of notes payable through cash flows generated from its operations and cash on hand, but there can be no assurance that this will occur.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company's cash flow from operations is approximately $686,512 while current maturities of debt are approximately $407,554. If the Company experiences cash flow shortages and is unable to generate adequate cash flows from operations to fund current debt maturities and other obligations, the Company's management intends to seek additional financing from other sources but there can be no assurance that this will occur. In the past, the Company has been successful in seeking additional financing. These sources of capital include selling certain of its fully owned and un-collateralized assets or borrowing money from certain stockholders.

In November 2016, the Company obtained a $3,000,000 line of credit from a regional financial institution to finance equity transactions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Security Land and Development Corporation

Augusta, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Security Land and Development Corporation ("the Company") as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. 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 U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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 audits 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 audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ Elliott Davis, LLC

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2003.

SECURITY LAND AND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2018

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACTIVITIES

Business activities

Security Land and Development Corporation ("the Company") is engaged in the acquisition of developed and undeveloped real estate to be held for investment purposes or to be developed and leased as income producing property. Substantially all investment properties held and leased by the Company are located within the State of Georgia, in Richmond and Columbia counties and in North Augusta, South Carolina.

Royal Palms Motel, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Security Land and Development Corporation, is a holding company for a parcel of land in Richmond County, Georgia. During 2004, the Company organized, as its sole member, SLDC, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company. During 2007, the Company organized, as its sole member, SLDC2, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company. During 2008, the Company organized, as its sole member, SLDC III, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company. SLDC, LLC, SLDC2, LLC, and SLDC III, LLC were organized by the Company to hold title to certain real estate that the Company plans to develop.

During 2018 and 2017, substantially all operating revenues and operating expenses were related to real estate leasing. A substantial portion of rent revenues were earned from two investment properties, a commercial retail center, consisting of approximately 69,000 square feet on Washington Road in Augusta, Georgia ("National Plaza") and the Evans Ground Lease on Washington Road in Evans, Georgia ("Evans Ground Lease"). National Plaza provided approximately 53% of gross rent revenue in 2018 and 2017. Approximately 81% of National Plaza was leased to a regional food supermarket, with annual rents from the lease totaling $463,200. National Plaza comprises approximately 36% of the asset Investment Properties for Lease, net of Accumulated Depreciation. The Evans Ground Lease provided approximately 38% and 39% of gross rental revenues in 2018 and 2017, respectively. This property, leased to a national home improvement retailer, earned rents totaling approximately $542,000 in both 2018 and 2017. The Evans Ground Lease comprises approximately 36% of investment properties held for lease, net, by the Company at September 30, 2018.

In September of 2015, the Company purchased a commercial building on 3.5 acres of land located on Wrightsboro Road in Augusta, Georgia. The building is partially leased to a local retailer with a rental period beginning October 1, 2015. The Wrightsboro Road property represents approximately 28% of the Company's net leased assets at September 30, 2018. The Wrightsboro Road lease provided approximately 9% of gross rental revenue in 2018 and 2017.

Basis of presentation

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Security Land and Development Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Royal Palms Motel, Inc., SLDC, LLC, SLDC2, LLC, and SLDC III, LLC (described on a consolidated basis as the "Company"). All intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The consolidated financial statements include estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

Rent revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease agreements. The Company is reimbursed by tenants for property taxes and other maintenance fees. These reimbursements billed totaled $314,338 and $300,113, which is included in rent revenues, for the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

(Continued)

-15-

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACTIVITIES, Continued

Revenue recognition, continued

Gains, or losses, realized from sales of real estate are recognized substantially when title to the property has passed and the risks and benefits of ownership have been transferred to the buyer.

Investment properties

Investment properties are stated at cost. Depreciation of the investment properties is computed principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings for lease		30 - 40 years
Land improvements on property for lease		15 years

Major renewals or improvements on investment properties are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense when incurred. Upon retirement, sale or other disposition of investment properties, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the gain or loss is included in income in the period of disposition.

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating recoverability, the Company generally estimates future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss is recognized when the expected future cash flows of the asset is less than the carrying amount. The Company measures the impairment loss as the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. At September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company believes that none of its long-lived assets are impaired.

Receivables from tenants

Receivables from tenants consist of rents, property taxes and other maintenance fees payable under the terms of lease agreements. Receivables are carried at original invoice amount. Management estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual tenant receivables and considering the collectability of balances due based on each tenant's financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recognized in income when received. The Company has an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $73,927 and $71,967 at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Lease commissions

Lease commissions are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related leases, using the straight-line method. Lease commissions, net of accumulated amortization, of $12,716 and $17,774 at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are included in Other Assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred financing costs

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts. Prior to the issuance of ASU 2015-03, debt issuance costs were required to be presented as deferred charge assets, separate from the related debt liability. ASU 2015-03 does not change the recognition and measurement requirements for debt issuance costs. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 as of the year ended September 30, 2017, and applied its provisions retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 resulted in the reclassification of $51,719 of net unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Company's long-term debt (see Note 3) from other assets to long-term debt within its consolidated balance sheet of September 30, 2017. Other than the reclassification, the adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Deferred financing cost are amortized over the term of the respective loan on a straight line basis.

(Continued)

-16-

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACTIVITIES, Continued

Income taxes

The Company files a consolidated income tax return. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are adjusted for changes in tax laws and tax rates when those changes are enacted.

The Company has adopted the provisions under ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") which requires that a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense in its financial statements. Management is not aware of any uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2018.

At September 30, 2017, the Company had income taxes payable of $19,917 related to the fiscal year 2017. As of September 30, 2018, all income taxes payable related to the fiscal year 2017 had been paid, and $75,630 of income tax payable has been accrued for the fiscal year 2018.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was signed into law by the President on Friday December 22, 2017. The TCJA includes the reduction in the corporate tax rate from a top rate of 35% to a flat rate of 21%, changes in business deductions, and many international provisions. The drop in the corporate rate is effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 15 indicates that "if any rate of tax imposed.changes, and if the taxable year includes the effective date of the change., then tentative taxes shall be computed by applying the rate for the period before the effective date of the change, and the rate for the period on and after such date, to the taxable income for the entire taxable year, and the tax for such taxable year shall be the sum of that proportion of each tentative tax which the number of days in each period bears to the number of days in the entire taxable year." (§15(a)). As the Company is a fiscal year taxpayer, they will receive a partial benefit for the drop in the federal corporate tax rate for their fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The weighted average federal tax rate computed in accordance with IRC Section 15 is 24.25% for the current fiscal year.

Based on the drop in the corporate tax rate to a flat 21%, the Company revalued each of their deferred tax assets and liabilities in the quarter ended December 31, 2017 using the new corporate tax rate. The net impact from this revaluing resulted in a tax benefit of $463,167 recognized as of December 31, 2017.

Income taxes have been provided using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax laws and rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

During the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $115,469 in income tax benefits at an effective rate of approximately -49%. The Company records income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate for interim reporting. The individually largest factor contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 24.25% and the Company's effective tax rate for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2018 was the benefit relating to the revaluing of the deferred tax asset and liability balances to the new federal statutory rate.

Statements of equity

On February 7, 2017, Security Land and Development Corporation offered to purchase up to 2,526,247 shares (approximately 48.2% of the Company's outstanding shares) of its common stock from its stockholders through a tender offer ("the Offer") at a price of $1.25 per share. The Offer is part of a plan intended to enhance stockholder value and provide liquidity for the stockholders. The Offer expired on March 15, 2017, was extended by the Company, and on April 19, 2017 Security Land and Development Corporation amended the above offer to increase the offer price to $1.60 per share. The amended Offer expired on May 5, 2017. On May 5, 2017, Security Land and Development Corporation amended the April 19, 2017 Offer to increase the offer price to $1.75 per share. Within the offer period, 192,860 shares were sold by members of the Board of Directors who are not part of the Flanagin family. As of September 30, 2018, the percentage of common stock owned by the Flanagin Family was approximately 58%. The Company purchased and retired a total of 1,476,817 shares of its stock for $2,584,455. Included within these shares purchased by the Company were 160,500 shares sold by members of the Flanagin family. The Company utilized funds procured from a line of credit as noted above in Note 3 - Notes Payable and Line of Credit.

Net income per common share

Net income per common share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding. The Company has no stock option plans, or other instruments resulting in earnings per share dilution. For 2018 and 2017, the weighted average number of shares outstanding was 3,766,290 and 3,797,137. Only basic net income per common share is presented.

Recently issued accounting standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance to change the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount equal to the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive. This guidance also includes expanded disclosure requirements that result in an entity providing users of financial statements with comprehensive information about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts with customers. The guidance was effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The guidance permits two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new standard with disclosure of results under old standards. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and the implementation approach to be used.

In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. As a result of the deferral, the guidance in ASU 2014-09 was effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will apply the guidance using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB amended the Revenue from Contracts with Customers topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and address how an entity should assess whether it is the principal or the agent in contracts that include three or more parties. The amendments were effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB amended the Revenue from Contracts with Customers topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify guidance related to collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax, and transition. The amendments were effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB amended the Revenue from Contracts with Customers topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify guidance related to collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax, and transition. The amendments were effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In December 2016, the FASB issued technical corrections and improvements to the Revenue from Contracts with Customers Topic. These corrections make a limited number of revisions to several pieces of the revenue recognition standard issued in 2014. The effective date and transition requirements for the technical corrections were effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will apply the guidance using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB amended the Leases topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to require all leases with lease terms over 12 months to be capitalized as a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet at the date of lease commencement. Leases will be classified as either finance leases or operating leases. This distinction will be relevant for the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that implementation of the new standard will have on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

In August 2016, the FASB amended the Statement of Cash Flows topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments will be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACTIVITIES, Continued

Recently issued accounting standards, continued

In November, 2016, the FASB amended the Statement of Cash Flows topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify how restricted cash is presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments were effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB amended the Income Taxes topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to modify the accounting for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. The amendments were effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the definitions of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The amendment to the Business Combinations Topic is intended to address concerns that the existing definition of a business has been applied too broadly and has resulted in many transactions being recorded as business acquisitions that in substance are more akin to asset acquisitions. The guidance was effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB updated the Accounting Changes and Error Corrections and the Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The ASU incorporates into the Accounting Standards Codification recent SEC guidance about disclosing, under SEC SAB Topic 11.M, the effect on financial statements of adopting the revenue, leases, and credit losses standards. The ASU was effective upon issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on additional disclosure requirements as each of the standards is adopted, however it does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB amended the Goodwill and Other Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment for public business entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The amendment removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The effective date and transition requirements for the technical corrections will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB amended the Other Income Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to clarify the scope of the guidance on nonfinancial asset de-recognition as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The amendments conform the de-recognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new revenue standard. The amendments were effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In September 2017, the FASB updated the Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the Leases Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments incorporate into the Accounting Standards Codification recent SEC guidance about certain public business entities (PBEs) electing to use the non-PBE effective dates solely to adopt the FASB's new standards on revenue and leases. The amendments were effective upon issuance. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance, however it does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In November 2017, the FASB updated the Income Statement and Revenue from Contracts with Customers Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments incorporate into the Accounting Standards Codification recent SEC guidance related to revenue recognition. The amendments were effective upon issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on revenue recognition, however it does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Recently issued accounting standards, continued

In March 2018, the FASB updated the Income Taxes Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments incorporate into the Accounting Standards Codification recent SEC guidance related to the income tax accounting implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments were effective upon issuance. The Company has disclosed the impact within Note 1 to the financial statements.

In July 2018, the FASB amended the Leases Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to make narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new leases standard. The amendments will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning December 15, 2018. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In July 2018, the FASB amended the Leases Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification to give entities another option for transition and to provide lessors with a practical expedient. The amendments will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Concentrations

Substantially all the Company's assets consist of real estate located in Richmond and Columbia Counties in the State of Georgia, and in North Augusta, South Carolina. Approximately 100% and 99% of the Company's revenues were rental related revenue in 2018 and 2017, respectively. In both 2018 and 2017, approximately 53% of the Company's rental revenues were earned from National Plaza. Approximately 81% of National Plaza is leased to one tenant, a regional food supermarket. Approximately 38% and 39% of the Company's rental revenues in 2018 and 2017, respectively, were earned from the Evans Ground Lease, which is 100% leased to a major national home improvement retailer.

The majority of the Company's receivables from tenants at September 30, 2018 and 2017 were receivable from two tenants, the regional food supermarket that leases property at National Plaza, and the major national home improvement retailer under the Evans Ground Lease.

The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions. At times the Company's cash balances may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.

Subsequent events

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Unrecognized subsequent events are events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date.

Management has reviewed events occurring through the date the financial statements were issued and no subsequent events, other than noted below, occurred that require accrual or disclosure.

The Company intends to use a portion of the proceeds from the National Plaza sale for a like-kind-exchange to purchase a property located in Augusta, Georgia. The identified property would be a long-term ground lease with an established national retailer that is currently occupying the premise. The expected purchase price of this property per the sales contract is $15,000,000 and the annual revenue from this long-term ground lease would be approximately $810,000, with approximately nine and half years remaining on the initial lease term. This lease does have sixteen five year extension options, with the first five year extension beginning in 2028 at a 10% escalation in the annual rent amount. If additional extension periods are exercised, rent amounts will increase every other extension period beginning in year 2033 at a rate of 5%.

In addition to using the proceeds of the National Plaza sale being used for the purchase of the aforementioned property, the Board of the Directors of the Company also plans to evaluate the possibility of paying dividends at a yet to be determined amount from a portion of the proceeds from the sale of National Plaza. The Company is also paying bonuses of approximately 3.75% of the gross sales price. At the closing of National Plaza, the Company also paid off the note payable with a regional financial institution for a loan that is currently collateralized by the National Plaza center.

The original term expired in 2015 and the tenant exercised a 5 year option. This lease is renewable for a total of an additional 15 years at substantially similar lease terms. The lease provides for the supermarket to pay for interior maintenance and utilities and property taxes on a proportional basis.

The lease agreement also provides for the Company to receive each year 1.25% of the individual supermarket's gross sales in excess of approximately $37 million. For 2018 and 2017, the supermarket did not achieve this gross sales level.

In 2003, the Company entered into a 20-year ground lease arrangement on an outparcel of National Plaza. The ground lease provides for minimum rent of $45,000 annually, for the first 10 years of the lease. The minimum rent increases by approximately 10% after year 10 and then again after year 15 of the ground lease. Other lease agreements at National Plaza range in terms from one to five years.

The Company entered into a long-term ground lease with a major national home improvement retailer tenant and its developer in May 2006 on the approximately 18 acres of land in Columbia County, Georgia. The agreement required monthly rental payments of $20,833 during the development period, which was completed in January of 2007. Following the expiration of the development period, the lease requires annual rental payments of $500,000 for the first 5 years then increasing 5% in years 6, 11, and 16.
