THE PARKING REIT, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2020
(UNAUDITED)

Note A — Organization and Business Operations

The Parking REIT, Inc., formerly known as MVP REIT II, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a Maryland corporation formed on May 4, 2015 and has elected to be taxed, and subject to the discussion below under the heading Income Taxes in Note B, has operated in a manner that allowed the Company to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2019.  As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has entered into temporary lease amendments with some of its tenants. The income generated under these lease amendments do not constitute qualifying REIT income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests, and, as a result, the Company was not in compliance with the annual REIT income tests for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.  These REIT income tests are measured on an annual basis, and we are evaluating options and strategies that may enable us to maintain our REIT status for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020 notwithstanding our inability to comply with these income tests in the past two quarters.  If implemented, these options and strategies, may have negative ancillary impacts on our business and operations, including potentially increasing our overall tax liability.  If we determine that the potential negative impacts of these options outweigh the benefits of potentially maintaining our REIT status, we may choose not to implement any of these options.  Moreover, even if we choose to implement any of these options, no assurances can be given that our implementation will be successful  or that these options will in fact enable us to maintain our status as a REIT for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020.  Accordingly, unless we choose, and are able, to successfully implement an alternative operating strategy, it is highly likely that the Company will no longer qualify as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020.  If we fail to qualify as a REIT for our taxable year ended December 31, 2020, we would no longer be required to make distributions of our annual taxable income in order to maintain our REIT status and any distributions we make would not be deductible.  Moreover, unless entitled to relief under specific statutory or administrative provisions, we would be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following 2020.  We believe that we may not be entitled to this statutory relief, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such relief.

The Company was formed to focus primarily on investments in parking facilities, including parking lots, parking garages and other parking structures throughout the United States and Canada. To a lesser extent, the Company may also invest in parking properties that contain other sources of rental income, potentially including office, retail, storage, residential, billboard or cell towers.

The Company is the sole general partner of MVP REIT II Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). The Company owns substantially all of its assets and conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, MVP REIT II Holdings, LLC, is the sole limited partner of the Operating Partnership. The operating agreement provides that the Operating Partnership is operated in a manner that enables the Company to (1) satisfy the requirements to qualify and maintain qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, (2) avoid any federal income or excise tax liability and (3) ensure that the Operating Partnership is not classified as a “publicly traded partnership” for purposes of Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), which classification could result in the Operating Partnership being taxed as a corporation.

The Company utilizes an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) structure to enable the Company to acquire real property in exchange for limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership from owners who desire to defer taxable gain that would otherwise normally be recognized by them upon the disposition of their real property or transfer of their real property to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock or cash.

The Company’s former advisor is MVP Realty Advisors, LLC, dba The Parking REIT Advisors (the “former Advisor”), a Nevada limited liability company, which is owned 60% by Vestin Realty Mortgage II, Inc. (“VRM II”) and 40% by Vestin Realty Mortgage I, Inc. (“VRM I”). Prior to the Internalization (as defined below), the former Advisor was responsible for managing the Company’s affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying and making investments on the Company’s behalf pursuant to a second amended and restated advisory agreement among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the former Advisor (the “Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement”), which became effective upon consummation of the Merger (as such term is defined below). VRM II and VRM I are Maryland corporations that trade on the OTC pink sheets and were managed by Vestin Mortgage, LLC, an affiliate of the former Advisor, prior to being internalized in January 2018.

As part of the Company’s initial capitalization, 8,000 shares of common stock were sold for $200,000 to an affiliate of the former Advisor (as defined below).


Merger of MVP REIT with Merger Sub, LLC

On May 26, 2017, the Company, MVP REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“MVP I”), MVP Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and the former Advisor entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which MVP I would merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). On December 15, 2017, the Merger was consummated. Following the Merger, the Company contributed 100% of its equity interests in Merger Sub to the Operating Partnership.

At the effective time of the Merger, each share of MVP I common stock, par value $0.001 per share, that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger (the “MVP I Common Stock”), was converted into the right to receive 0.365 shares of Company common stock. A total of approximately 3.9 million shares of Company common stock were issued to former MVP I stockholders, and former MVP I stockholders, immediately following the Merger, owned approximately 59.7% of the Company's common stock. The Company was subsequently renamed “The Parking REIT, Inc.”

Capitalization

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had 7,327,696 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. On December 31, 2016, the Company ceased all selling efforts for the initial public offering of its common stock (the “Common Stock Offering”). The Company accepted additional subscriptions through March 31, 2017, the last day of the Common Stock Offering. In connection with its formation, the Company sold 8,000 shares of common stock to MVP Capital Partners II, LLC (the “Sponsor”) for $200,000.

On October 27, 2016, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 50,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A”). The Company commenced a private placement of the shares of Series A, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, to accredited investors on November 1, 2016 and closed the offering on March 24, 2017. The Company raised approximately $2.5 million, net of offering costs, in the Series A private placement and had 2,862 Series A shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020.

On March 29, 2017, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland, Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 97,000 shares of its authorized capital stock as shares of Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series 1”). On April 7, 2017, the Company commenced a private placement of shares of Series 1, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock to accredited investors and closed the offering on January 31, 2018. The Company raised approximately $36.0 million, net of offering costs, in the Series 1 private placements and had 39,811 Series 1 shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020.

Note B — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and in conjunction with rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts and related adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 contained herein has been derived from the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2019 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Liquidity Matters

The Company has incurred net losses since its inception and anticipates net losses and negative operating cash flows for the near future. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $20.6 million and had $6.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. In connection with preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, management evaluated the extent of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business and its future liquidity for the next twelve months through November 16, 2021.

Management has implemented the following plan to address the Company’s liquidity over the next twelve months plus a day from the filing of this Quarterly Report:

The Company completed the sale of the San Jose, California garage on May 26, 2020 at the contract price of $4.1 million. See Note I – Disposition of Investment in Real Estate of this Quarterly Report for additional information.
On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series A Preferred stock, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series A.
On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series 1 Preferred Stock, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series 1.
On March 24, 2020, the Board of Directors suspended all repurchases, even in the case of a shareholder’s death.
The Company is continuing to have discussions with its lenders in light of the current economic conditions and entered into one loan modification during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and five loan modifications during the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
While the Company is currently unable to completely estimate the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to contain its spread will have on the Company’s business and on its tenants, as of September 30, 2020, the Company has entered into thirty-five lease amendments with eight tenants/operators. The terms of such lease amendments generally provide for one of (i) a reduction in rent for a period of four to seven months, (ii) conversion of the lease to a management agreement pursuant to which the operator will receive a monthly fee; or (iii) extension of the lease.
The Company applied for the Paycheck Protection Program loan, guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), through Key Bank National Association, Inc., on April 3, 2020. This loan program is for companies with 500 or less employees, under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) signed by President Trump on March 27, 2020. On April 23, 2020 the Company received the funding for its CARES Act loan of approximately $348,000. Because these funds were used exclusively for employee payroll management expects this loan will not be required to be paid back under the terms of the CARES Act.
The Company is in preliminary discussions with LoanCore to exercise the one-year extension option in the loan agreement to extend the maturity of this loan on terms the Company can satisfy; however, there can be no assurance this option will be exercised.  If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date and is unable to repay the loan at maturity, the lenders could foreclose upon the collateral securing the loan, in which case the Company would lose its significant amount of equity value in such collateral. See Company Indebtedness in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information.
The Company has plans to dispose of an asset within the next twelve months. Management disposed of two assets in 2019 and one asset during the nine - months ended September 30, 2020.

If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders would experience dilution. Additional debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting its operations or its ability to incur additional debt. Any additional debt financing or additional equity that the Company raises may contain terms that are not favorable to it or its stockholders and require significant debt service payments, which diverts resources from other activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing, it may be required to significantly scale back its business and operations.  The Company’s ability to raise additional capital will also be impacted by the recent outbreak of COVID-19.

Based on this current business plan, the Company believes its existing cash, anticipated cash collections and cash inflows is sufficient to conduct planned operations for one year from the issuance of the September 30, 2020 financial statements.


Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include its accounts, the accounts of the Company’s assets that were sold during 2020 and 2019 (as applicable), the accounts of its subsidiaries, Operating Partnership and all of the following subsidiaries. All intercompany profits and losses, balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The following list includes the subsidiaries that are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, not the number of properties owned by the Company at September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Under GAAP, the Company’s consolidated financial statements will also include the accounts of its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures in which the Company is the primary beneficiary, or in which the Company has a controlling interest. In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, the Company’s management considers factors such as an entity’s purpose and design and the Company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance, ownership interest, board representation, management representation, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity in which it will absorb the majority of the entity’s expected losses, if they occur, or receive the majority of the expected residual returns, if they occur, or both.

Equity investments in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's share of its equity method investees' earnings or losses is included in other income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Investments in which the Company is not able to exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for under the cost method.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, and derivative financial instruments and hedging activities, as applicable.

Concentration

The Company had fourteen and sixteen parking tenants/operators during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. One tenant/operator, SP Plus Corporation (Nasdaq: SP) (“SP+”), represented 61.0% of the Company’s base parking rental revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

SP+ is one of the largest providers of parking management in the United States. As of September 30, 2020, SP+ managed approximately 3,200 locations in North America.

Acquisitions

The Company records the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of acquisitions of all operating properties and those development and redevelopment opportunities that meet the accounting criteria to be accounted for as business combinations at fair value at the acquisition date. The Company assesses and considers fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize available market information and discount and/or capitalization rates that the Company deems appropriate. Estimates of future cash flows are based on several factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. The acquired assets and assumed liabilities for an operating property acquisition generally include but are not limited to: land, buildings and improvements, construction in progress and identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases, including tenant improvements, leasing costs, value of above-market and below-market operating leases and ground leases, acquired in-place lease values and tenant relationships, if any. Costs directly associated with all operating property acquisitions and those development and redevelopment acquisitions that meet the accounting criteria to be accounted for as business combinations are expensed as incurred within operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists, due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, the property is written down to fair value and an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. These assessments have a direct impact on net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income.

The Company recorded impairment charges of approximately $6.5 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  The Company recorded impairment charges of approximately $14.1 million and $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  These charges were recorded to write down the carrying value of these assets to their current appraised values net of estimated closing costs.  The appraisals were performed by independent third-party appraisers primarily using the income capitalization approach based on the contracted rent to be received from the operator or the sales comparison approach. The income capitalization approach reflects the property’s income-producing capabilities based on the assumption that value is created by the expectation of benefits to be derived in the future. The sales comparison approach utilizes sales of comparable properties, adjusted for differences, to indicate value.

Cash

The Company maintains a significant portion of its cash deposits at KeyBank, which are held by the Company’s subsidiaries allowing the Company to maximize FDIC insurance coverage. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) under the same ownership category of $250,000. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $0.7 million and $2.7 million, respectively, in excess of the federally insured limits. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not experienced any losses on cash deposits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily consists of escrowed tenant improvement funds, real estate taxes, capital improvement funds, insurance premiums and other amounts required to be escrowed pursuant to loan agreements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenues, which are derived primarily from rental income, include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Since many of the Company's leases will provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable, and include in revenues, unbilled rent receivables that the Company will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. Percentage rents will be recorded when earned and certain thresholds have been met.

The Company will continually review receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. If the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, the Company will record an increase in the Company's allowance for uncollectible accounts or record a direct write-off of the receivable after exhaustive efforts at collection.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs incurred in the normal course of operations are expensed as incurred. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no advertising costs.


Investments in Real Estate and Fixed Assets

Investments in real estate and fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are primarily 3 to 40 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income (expense).

The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful lives of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed assets in measuring their recoverability.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Estimates of value are made using customary methods, including data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Amounts allocated to land, land improvements, buildings and fixtures are based on cost segregation studies performed by independent third parties or on the Company's analysis of comparable properties in the Company's portfolio. Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships, as applicable. The aggregate value of intangible assets related to in-place leases is primarily the difference between the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and the property valued as if vacant. Factors considered by the Company in its analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company will include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up period. Estimates of costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses are also utilized.

Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease intangibles are amortized as a decrease to rental income over the remaining term of the lease.

The capitalized below-market lease values will be amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining term and any fixed rate renewal periods provided within the respective leases. In determining the amortization period for below-market lease intangibles, the Company initially will consider, and periodically evaluate on a quarterly basis, the likelihood that a lessee will execute the renewal option. The likelihood that a lessee will execute the renewal option is determined by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company's overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of its existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors.

The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the initial term of the respective leases. The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company will utilize several sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company will also consider information obtained about each property as a result of the Company's pre-acquisition due diligence, as well as subsequent marketing and leasing activities, in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.


Organization, Offering and Related Costs

Certain organization and offering costs will be incurred by the former Advisor. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, the Company will not reimburse the Advisor for these out of pocket costs and future organization and offering costs it may incur. Such costs shall include legal, accounting, printing and other offering expenses, including marketing, and direct expenses of the former Advisor’s employees and employees of the former Advisor’s affiliates and others.

All direct offering costs incurred and or paid by the Company that are directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering, including sales commissions, if any, were charged against the gross proceeds of the Common Stock Offering and recorded as an offset to additional paid-in-capital. All indirect costs will be expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based incentive award plan, which is accounted for under the guidance for share based payments. The expense for such awards will be included in general and administrative expenses and is recognized over the vesting period or when the requirements for exercise of the award have been met (See Note G — Stock-Based Compensation).

Income Taxes

Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2019, and subject to the discussion below relating to the Company’s REIT status from and after January 1, 2020, the Company has operated in a manner to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Code. A REIT is generally not subject to federal income tax on that portion of its REIT taxable income, which is distributed to its stockholders, provided that at least 90% of such taxable income is distributed and provided that certain other requirements are met. The Company’s REIT taxable income may substantially exceed or be less than the income calculated according to GAAP. In addition, the Company will be subjected to corporate income tax to the extent that less than 100% of the net taxable income is distributed, including any net capital gain.

The Company uses a two-step approach to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolutions of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more likely than not of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions would be sustained upon examination; thus, the Company has not recorded any uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2020.

A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was provided since the Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will not realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets. A change in circumstances may cause the Company to change its judgment about whether deferred tax assets should be recorded, and further whether any such assets would more likely than not be realized. The Company would generally report any change in the valuation allowance through its income statement in the period in which such changes in circumstances occur. As long as the Company continues to qualify as a REIT, it will generally not be subject to corporate level federal income taxes on earnings distributed to its stockholders and therefore may not realize any benefit from deferred tax assets arising during 2019 or any prior period in which the Company maintained its status as a REIT. The Company intends to distribute at least 100% of its taxable income annually for every year in which the Company is a REIT.

As of September 30, 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has entered into temporary lease amendments with some of its tenants. The Company was compelled to make certain of these amendments in response to challenging market conditions faced by its lessees and operating partners due to the significant negative impact of COVID-19 on demand for parking in many of the markets in which the Company owns properties, particularly in major population centers.  At the time the leases were amended, the Company intended for the amendments to be temporary and did not believe that the amendments would cause the Company to fail its REIT income tests for the 2020 year.  Because the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to negatively impact the Company and its operating partners and lessees longer than anticipated, the Company has not yet been able to amend all of its agreements back to their original form. The income generated under these lease amendments do not constitute qualifying REIT income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests.  As a result, the Company was not in compliance with the annual REIT income tests for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.   These REIT income tests are measured on an annual basis, and we are evaluating options and strategies that may enable us to maintain our REIT status for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020 notwithstanding our inability to comply with these income tests in the past two quarters.  If implemented, these options and strategies may have negative ancillary impacts on our business and operations, including potentially increasing our overall tax liability.  If we determine that the potential negative impacts of these options outweigh the benefits of potentially maintaining our REIT status, we may choose not to implement any of these options.  Moreover, even if we choose to implement any of these options, no assurances can be given that our implementation will be successful  or that these options will in fact enable us to maintain our status as a REIT for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020.  Accordingly, unless we choose, and are able, to successfully implement an alternative operating strategy, it is highly likely that the Company will no longer qualify as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020.  If we fail to qualify as a REIT for our taxable year ended December 31, 2020, we would no longer be required to make distributions of our annual taxable income in order to maintain our REIT status and any distributions we make would not be deductible by us.  Moreover, unless entitled to relief under specific statutory or administrative provisions, we would be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following 2020.  We believe that we may not be entitled to this statutory relief, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such relief.

Given projected losses in 2020, as well as the potential tax benefit of net operating loss carryforwards that the Company does not anticipate utilizing as long as it maintains its status as a REIT, the Company will continue to evaluate its current and deferred income tax situation (including the appropriateness of recording a deferred tax asset for net operating losses) throughout the year as there is additional clarity about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the Company’s ongoing operations, including whether the Company can maintain its REIT status for the 2020 year.

Per Share Data

The Company calculates basic income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) for the period by weighted-average shares of its common stock outstanding for the respective period. Diluted income per share considers the effect of dilutive instruments, such as stock options and convertible stock, but uses the average share price for the period in determining the number of incremental shares that are to be added to the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The Company had no outstanding common share equivalents during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

There is a potential for dilution from the Company’s Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock which may be converted into the Company’s common stock at any time. As of September 30, 2020, there were 2,862 shares of the Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. As of filing date, the Company has not received any requests to convert.

There is a potential for dilution from the Company’s Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock which may be converted upon a holder’s election into the Company’s common stock at any time. As of September 30, 2020, there were 39,811 shares of the Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. As of filing date, the Company has not received any requests to convert.

Each share of Series A preferred stock and Series 1 preferred stock will convert into the number of shares of the Company’s common stock determined by dividing (i) the stated value per Series A share or Series 1 share of $1,000 (as may be adjusted pursuant to the applicable articles supplementary) plus any accrued but unpaid dividends to, but not including, the conversion date by (ii) the conversion price. The conversion price is equal to the net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock; provided that if a “Listing Event” (as defined in the applicable articles supplementary) occurs, the conversion price will be 100% of the volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the delivery date of the conversion notice. The Company will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem any Series A or Series 1 shares that are subject to a conversion notice on the terms set forth in the applicable articles supplementary.

Accounting and Auditing Standards Applicable to “Emerging Growth Companies”

The Company is an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). For as long as the Company remains an “emerging growth company,” which is expected to be through December 31, 2020, the Company is not required to (1) comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies, (2) provide an auditor’s attestation report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (3) comply with any new requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”), requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about the audit and the financial statements of the issuer or (4) comply with any new audit rules adopted by the PCAOB after April 5, 2012, unless the SEC determines otherwise. The Company intends to take advantage of such extended transition period. Since the Company will not be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of companies that comply with public company effective dates. If the Company were to subsequently elect to instead comply with these public company effective dates, such election would be irrevocable pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

Non-controlling Interests

The FASB issued authoritative guidance for non-controlling interests in December 2007, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The guidance clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as an unconsolidated investment, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, the guidance requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest.


Note C — Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters

Investments in real property create the potential for environmental liability on the part of the owner or operator of such real property. If hazardous substances are discovered on or emanating from a property, the owner or operator of the property may be held strictly liable for all costs and liabilities relating to such hazardous substances. The Company has obtained a Phase I environmental study (which involves inspection without soil sampling or ground water analysis) conducted by independent environmental consultants on each of the properties and, in certain instances, has conducted additional investigation, including a Phase II environmental assessment. Furthermore, the Company has adopted a policy of conducting a Phase I environmental study on each property acquired and any additional investigation as warranted.

During the Company’s predecessor’s due diligence of a property purchased on December 15, 2017 (originally purchased by predecessor on March 31, 2015) and located in Milwaukee, it was discovered that the soil and ground water at the subject property had been impacted by the site’s historical use as a printing press as well as neighboring property uses. As a result, the Company retained a local environmental engineer to seek a closure letter or similar certificate of no further action from the State of Wisconsin due to the Company’s use of the property as a parking lot. As of September 30, 2020, management has not received the closure letter, however the Company does not anticipate a material adverse effect related to this environmental matter.

The Company believes that it complies, in all material respects, with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. Furthermore, as of September 30, 2020, the Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and is not aware of any other environmental condition that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations. The Company, however, cannot predict the impact of any unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on properties in which the Company holds an interest, or on properties that may be acquired directly or indirectly in the future.

Note E — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements

The transactions described in this Note were approved by a majority of the Company’s board of directors (including a majority of the independent directors) not otherwise interested in such transactions as fair and reasonable to the Company and on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

Ownership of Company Stock

As of September 30, 2020, the Sponsor owned 9,108 shares, VRM II owned 844,960 shares and VRM I owned 456,834 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Ownership of the Former Advisor

VRM I and VRM II own 40% and 60%, respectively, of the former Advisor. Neither VRM I nor VRM II paid any up-front consideration for these ownership interests, but each agreed to be responsible for its proportionate share of future expenses of the former Advisor.

Note F — Economic Dependency

Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage the former Advisor and its affiliates to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company, asset acquisition and disposition services, the sale of shares of the Company’s securities available for issuance, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company, including accounting services and investor relations. In addition, the Sponsor paid selling commissions in connection with the sale of the Company’s shares in the Common Stock Offering and the former Advisor paid the Company’s organization and offering expenses.

As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the former Advisor and its affiliates. If these companies are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, including loan guaranties, the Company may be required to find alternative providers of these services.


Note G — Stock-Based Compensation

Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Company’s board of directors has adopted a long-term incentive plan which the Company may use to attract and retain qualified directors, officers, employees and consultants. The Company’s long-term incentive plan will offer these individuals an opportunity to participate in the Company’s growth through awards in the form of, or based on, the Company’s common stock. The Company currently anticipates that it will not issue awards under the Company’s long-term incentive plan, although it may do so in the future, including possible equity grants to the Company’s independent directors as a form of compensation.

The long-term incentive plan authorizes the granting of restricted stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted or deferred stock units, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards and cash-based awards to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company and the Company’s affiliates selected by the board of directors for participation in the Company’s long-term incentive plan. Stock options granted under the long-term incentive plan will not exceed an amount equal to 10% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant of any such stock options. Stock options may not have an exercise price that is less than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

The Company’s board of directors or a committee appointed by its board of directors will administer the long-term incentive plan, with sole authority to determine all of the terms and conditions of the awards, including whether the grant, vesting or settlement of awards may be subject to the attainment of one or more performance goals. No awards will be granted under the long-term incentive plan if the grant or vesting of the awards would jeopardize the Company’s status as a REIT under the Code or otherwise violate the ownership and transfer restrictions imposed under its charter. Unless otherwise determined by the Company’s board of directors, no award granted under the long-term incentive plan will be transferable except through the laws of descent and distribution.

The Company has authorized and reserved an aggregate maximum number of 500,000 common shares for issuance under the long-term incentive plan. In the event of a transaction between the Company and its stockholders that causes the per-share value of the Company’s common stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering or large nonrecurring cash dividend), the share authorization limits under the long-term incentive plan will be adjusted proportionately and the board of directors will make such adjustments to the long-term incentive plan and awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction. In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of common stock into a lesser number of shares, the authorization limits under the long-term incentive plan will automatically be adjusted proportionately and the shares then subject to each award will automatically be adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price.

The Company’s board of directors may in its sole discretion at any time determine that all or a portion of a participant’s awards will become fully vested. The board may discriminate among participants or among awards in exercising such discretion. The long-term incentive plan will automatically expire on the tenth anniversary of the date on which it is approved by the board of directors and stockholders, unless extended or earlier terminated by the board of directors. The Company’s board of directors may terminate the long-term incentive plan at any time. The expiration or other termination of the long-term incentive plan will not, without the participant’s consent, have an adverse impact on any award that is outstanding at the time the long-term incentive plan expires or is terminated. The board of directors may amend the long-term incentive plan at any time, but no amendment will adversely affect any award without the participant’s consent and no amendment to the long-term incentive plan will be effective without the approval of the Company’s stockholders if such approval is required by any law, regulation or rule applicable to the long-term incentive plan. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, no grants were made under the long-term incentive plan.

Note H – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases – (Topic 842). This update will require lessees to recognize all leases with terms greater than 12 months on their balance sheet as lease liabilities with a corresponding right-of-use asset. This update maintains the dual model for lease accounting, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance, with lease classification determined in a manner similar to existing lease guidance. The basic principle is that leases of all types convey the right to direct the use and obtain substantially all the economic benefits of an identified asset, meaning they create an asset and liability for lessees. Lessees will classify leases as either finance leases (comparable to current capital leases) or operating leases (comparable to current operating leases). Costs for a finance lease will be split between amortization and interest expense, with a single lease expense reported for operating leases. This update also will require both qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company has determined that the provisions of ASU 2016-02 may result in an increase in assets to recognize the present value of the lease obligations with a corresponding increase in liabilities for leases in the future however the Company was not a lessee on any lease agreements at December 31, 2018. During the first quarter 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02.  See Note M – Right of Use Leased Asset and Lease Liability for discussion of the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this ASU replace the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. During the first quarter 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The objective of ASU 2017-12 is to expand hedge accounting for both financial (interest rate) and commodity risks and create more transparency around how economic results are presented, both on the face of the financial statements and in the footnotes. ASU 2017-12 will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods in the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for any interim or annual period. During the first quarter 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2017-12 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note I — Disposition of Investment in Real Estate

On May 26, 2020, the Company, through an entity wholly owned by the Company, sold a parking garage in San Jose, California for cash consideration of $4.1 million to UC 88 Garage Owner LLC, a third-party buyer.  The Company used $2.5 million of the proceeds to pay off the existing promissory note secured by the MVP San Jose 88 Garage, LLC. The property was originally purchased in June 2016 for approximately $3.6 million. The gain on sale is approximately $0.7 million.

The following is summary of the results of operations related to the parking garage in San Jose for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020:

Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, LoanCore agreed to loan MVP St. Louis and MVP Memphis Poplar $5.5 million to repay and discharge the outstanding KeyBank loan agreement.

On November 30, 2018, subsidiaries of the Company, consisting of MVP Hawaii Marks Garage, LLC, MVP Indianapolis City Park Garage, LLC, MVP Indianapolis Washington Street Lot, LLC, MVP New Orleans Rampart, LLC, MVP Raider Park Garage, LLC, and MVP Milwaukee Wells LLC (the “Borrowers”) entered into a loan agreement, dated as of November 30, 2018 (the “Loan Agreement”), with LoanCore Capital Credit REIT LLC (the “LoanCore”). Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, LoanCore agreed to loan the Borrowers $39.5 million to repay and discharge the outstanding KeyBank Revolving Credit Facility. The loan is secured by a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing on each of the properties owned by the Borrowers (the “Properties”). The loan bears interest at a floating rate equal to the sum of one-month LIBOR plus 3.65%, subject to a LIBOR minimum of 1.95%. Additionally, the Borrowers were required to purchase an Interest Rate Protection Agreement which caps its maximum LIBOR at 3.50% for the duration of the loan. Payments are interest-only for the duration of the loan, with the $39.5 million principal repayment due in a balloon payment due on December 9, 2020, with an option to extend the term until December 9, 2021 subject to certain conditions and payment obligations. The Borrowers have the right to prepay all or any part of the loan, subject to payment of any applicable Spread Maintenance Premium and Exit Fee (as defined in the Loan Agreement). The loan is also subject to mandatory prepayment upon certain events of Insured Casualty or Condemnation (as defined in the Loan Agreement). The Borrowers made customary representations and warranties to LoanCore and agreed to maintain certain covenants under the Loan Agreement, including but not limited to, covenants involving their existence; property taxes and other charges; access to properties, repairs, maintenance and alterations; performance of other agreements; environmental matters; title to properties; leases; estoppel statements; management of the Properties; special purpose bankruptcy remote entity status; change in business or operation of the Properties; debt cancellation; affiliate transactions; indebtedness of the Borrowers limited to Permitted Indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement); ground lease reserve relating to MVP New Orleans’ Property; property cash flow allocation; liens on the Properties; ERISA matters; approval of major contracts; payments upon a sale of a Property; and insurance, notice and reporting obligations as set forth in the loan agreement. The Loan Agreement contains customary events of default and indemnification obligations. The loan proceeds were used to repay and discharge the KeyBank Credit Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2017, as amended, per the terms outlined in the third amendment to the Credit Agreement dated September 28, 2018, as previously filed on Form 8-K on October 2, 2018 and incorporated herein by reference. The Company is in preliminary discussions with LoanCore to exercise the one-year extension option in the loan agreement to extend the maturity of this loan; however, there can be no assurance this option will be exercised.  If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date and is unable to repay the loan at maturity, the lenders could foreclose upon the collateral securing the loan, in which case the Company would lose its significant amount of equity value in such collateral. On July 9, 2020, the Company entered into a loan modification agreement with LoanCore Capital Credit REIT, LLC for the following notes payable: (i) MVP Raider Park Garage, LLC, (ii) MVP New Orleans Rampart, LLC, (iii) MVP Hawaii Marks Garage, LLC, (iv) MVP Milwaukee Wells, LLC, (v) MVP Indianapolis City Park, LLC, (vi) MVP Indianapolis WA Street, LLC. The Agreement defers a portion of the required monthly interest payments from June 2020 through November 2020 and reduces the LIBOR Floor from 1.95% to 0.50%, the Modified LIBOR Floor.

Note K — Fair Value

A fair value measurement is based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in an orderly transaction. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value are as follows:

1.
Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
2.
Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable.
3.
Level 3 – Model-derived valuations with unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses. Due to their short maturities, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate fair value.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value Level 3 on a non-recurring basis may include Assets Held for Sale.

Note L – Investment In DST

On May 31, 2017, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary of its Operating Partnership, purchased a 51.0% beneficial interest in MVP St. Louis Cardinal Lot, DST, a Delaware Statutory Trust (“MVP St. Louis”), for approximately $2.8 million. MVP St. Louis is the owner of a 2.56-acre, 376-vehicle commercial parking lot located at 500 South Broadway, St. Louis, Missouri 63103, known as the Cardinal Lot (the “Property”), which is adjacent to Busch Stadium, the home of the St. Louis Cardinals major league baseball team. The Property was purchased by MVP St. Louis from an unaffiliated seller for a purchase price of $11,350,000, plus payment of closing costs, financing costs, and related transactional costs.

Concurrently with the acquisition of the Property, MVP St. Louis obtained a first mortgage loan from Cantor Commercial Real Estate Lending, L.P (“St. Louis Lender”), in the principal amount of $6,000,000, with a 10-year, interest-only term at a fixed interest rate of 5.25%, resulting in an annual debt service payment of $315,000 (the “St. Louis Loan”). MVP St. Louis used the Company’s investment to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Property. The remaining equity portion was funded through short-term investments by VRM II, an affiliate of the former Advisor, pending the private placements of additional beneficial interest in MVP St. Louis exempt from registration under the Securities Act. VRM II and Michael V. Shustek, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, provided non-recourse carveout guaranties of the loan and environmental indemnities of St. Louis Lender.


Also, concurrently with the acquisition of the Property, MVP St. Louis, as landlord, entered into a 10-year master lease (the “St. Louis Master Lease”), with MVP St. Louis Cardinal Lot Master Tenant, LLC, an affiliate of the former Advisor, as tenant, (the “St. Louis Master Tenant”). St. Louis Master Tenant, in turn, concurrently entered into a 10-year sublease with Premier Parking of Missouri, LLC. The St. Louis Master Lease provides for annual rent payable monthly to MVP St. Louis, consisting of base rent in an amount to pay debt service on the St. Louis Loan, stated rent of $414,000 and potential bonus rent equal to a share of the revenues payable under the sublease in excess of a threshold. The Company will be entitled to its proportionate share of the rent payments based on its ownership interest. Under the St. Louis Master Lease, MVP St. Louis is responsible for capital expenditures and the St. Louis Master Tenant is responsible for taxes, insurance and operating expenses.  For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, distributions received were none and $52,000 respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, distributions received were $34,000 and $170,000, respectively.

The Company conducted an analysis and concluded that the 51% investment in the DST should not be consolidated. As a DST, the entity is subject to the Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) Model under ASC 810-10.

As stated in ASC 810: “A controlling financial interest in the VIE model requires both of the following:

a. The power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance
b. The obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.”

As a VIE, the DST is governed in a manner similar to a limited partnership (i.e., there are trustees and there is no board) and the Company, as a beneficial owner, lacks the power through voting rights or otherwise to direct the activities of the DST that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. Specifically, the beneficial interest owners do not have the rights set forth in ASC 810-10-15-14(b)(1)(ii) – the beneficial owners can only remove the trustees if the trustees have engaged in fraud or gross negligence with respect to the trust and the beneficial owners have no substantive participating rights over the trustees.

The former Advisor was the advisor to the Company. The Company is controlled by its independent board of directors and its shareholders. In addition, the former Advisor is the 100% direct/indirect owner of the MVP Parking DST, LLC (“DST Sponsor”), the MVP St. Louis Cardinal Lot Signature Trustee, LLC (“Signature Trustee”) and MVP St. Louis Cardinal Lot Master Tenant, LLC (the “Master Tenant”), who have no direct or indirect ownership in the Company. The Signature Trustee and the Master Tenant can direct the most significant activities of the DST.

The former Advisor controls and consolidates the Signature Trustee, the Master Tenant, and the DST Sponsor. The Company concluded the Master Tenant/property management agreement exposes the Master Tenant to funding operating losses of the Property. As such, that agreement should be considered a variable interest in DST (ASC 810-10-55-37 and 810-10-55-37C). Accordingly, the former Advisor has a variable interest in the DST (through the master tenant/property manager) and has power over the significant activities of the DST (through the Signature Trustee and the master tenant/property manager). Accordingly, the Company believes that the Master Tenant is the primary beneficiary of the DST, which is ultimately owned and controlled by the former Advisor. In addition, the Company does not have the power to direct or change the activities of the Trust and shares income and losses pari passu with the other owners. As such, the Company accounts for its investment under the equity method and does not consolidate its investment in the DST.

Federal Action

On March 12, 2019, stockholder SIPDA Revocable Trust (“SIPDA”) filed a purported class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors. SIPDA filed an Amended Complaint on October 11, 2019. The Amended Complaint purports to assert class action claims on behalf of all public shareholders of the Company and MVP I between August 11, 2017 and April 1, 2019 in connection with the (i) August 2017 proxy statements filed with the SEC to obtain shareholder approval for the merger of the Company and MVP I (the “proxy statements”), and (ii) August 2018 proxy statement filed with the SEC to solicit proxies for the election of certain directors (the “2018 proxy statement”). The Amended Complaint alleges, among other things, that the 2017 proxy statements failed to disclose that two major reasons for the merger and certain charter amendments implemented in connection therewith were (i) to facilitate the execution of an amended advisory agreement that allegedly was designed to benefit Mr. Shustek financially in the event of an internalization and (ii) to give Mr. Shustek the ability to cause the Company to internalize based on terms set forth in the amended advisory agreement. The Amended Complaint further alleges, among other things, that the 2018 proxy statement failed to disclose the Company’s purported plan to internalize its management function.

The Amended Complaint alleges, among other things, (i) that all defendants violated Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, by disseminating proxy statements that allegedly contain false and misleading statements or omit to state material facts; (ii) that the director defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act; and (iii) that the director defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the members of the class and to the Company.

The Amended Complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified damages; declaratory relief; and the payment of reasonable attorneys' fees, accountants' and experts' fees, costs and expenses.

On June 13, 2019, the court granted SIPDA’s motion for Appointment as Lead Plaintiff. The litigation is still at a preliminary stage.   On January 9, 2020, the Company and the Board of Directors moved to dismiss the Amended Complaint.  The Company and the Board of Directors have reviewed the allegations in the Amended Complaint and believe the claims asserted against them in the Amended Complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this action.

Maryland Actions

On May 31, 2019, and June 27, 2019, alleged stockholders filed class action lawsuits alleging direct and derivative claims against the Company, certain of our officers and directors, MVP Realty Advisors, Vestin Realty Mortgage I, and Vestin Realty Mortgage II in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, captioned Arthur Magowski v. The Parking REIT, Inc., et. al, No. 24-C-19003125 (filed on May 31, 2019) (the “Magowski Complaint”) and Michelle Barene v. The Parking REIT, Inc., et. al, No. 24-C-19003527 (filed on June 27, 2019) (the “Barene Complaint”).

The Magowski Complaint asserts purportedly direct claims on behalf of all stockholders (other than the defendants and persons or entities related to or affiliated with any defendant) for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment arising from the Company’s decision to internalize its advisory function. In this Complaint, Plaintiff Magowski asserts that the stockholders have allegedly been directly injured by the internalization and related transactions. The Barene Complaint asserts both direct and derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty arising from substantially similar allegations as those contained in the Magowski Complaint. The purportedly direct claims are asserted on behalf of the same class of stockholder as the purportedly direct claims in the Magowski Complaint, and the derivative claims in the Barene Complaint are asserted on behalf of the Company.

On September 12 and 16, 2019, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the Magowski and Barene complaints, respectively. The Magowski and Barene Complaints seek, among other things, damages; declaratory relief; equitable relief to reverse and enjoin the internalization transaction; and the payment of reasonable attorneys' fees, accountants' and experts' fees, costs and expenses. The actions are at a preliminary stage. The Company and the board of directors intend to vigorously defend against these lawsuits.

The Magowski Complaint also previewed that a stockholder demand would be made on the Board to take action with respect to claims belonging to the Company for the alleged injury to the Company. On June 19, 2019, Magowski submitted a formal demand letter to the Board asserting the same alleged wrongdoing as alleged in the Magowski Complaint and demanding that the Board investigate the alleged wrongdoing and take action to remedy the alleged injury to the Company. The demand includes that claims be initiated against the same defendants as are named in the Magowski Complaint. In response to this stockholder demand letter, on July 16, 2019, the Board established a demand review committee of one independent director to investigate the allegations of wrongdoing made in the letter and to make a recommendation to the Board for a response to the letter.  On September 27, 2019, the Board replaced the demand review committee with a special litigation committee. The special litigation committee is responsible for investigating the allegations of wrongdoing made in the letter and making a final determination regarding the response for the Company to the demand. The work of the special litigation committee is on-going.

SEC Investigation

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is conducting an investigation relating to the Parking REIT. In June 2019, the SEC issued subpoenas to the Company and its chairman and chief executive officer Michael V. Shustek, and since then has requested more information. The Company cannot predict the outcome or the duration of the SEC investigation or any other legal proceedings or any enforcement actions or other remedies, if any, that may be imposed on Mr. Shustek, the Company or any other entity arising out of the SEC investigation.

Nasdaq Notification Regarding Company’s Common Stock

Further, Nasdaq has informed the Company that (i) the Company’s common stock will not be approved for listing currently on the Nasdaq Global Market, and (ii) it is highly unlikely that the Company’s common stock would be approved for listing while the SEC investigation is ongoing. There can be no assurance that the Company’s common stock will ever be approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Market or any other stock exchange, even if the SEC investigation referred to above is completed and no wrongdoing is found and no action is taken in connection therewith against the Company, Mr. Shustek or any other person.


Note O — Preferred Stock and Warrants

The Company reviewed the relevant ASC’s, specifically ASC 480 – Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815 – Derivatives and Hedging, in connection with the presentation of the Series A and Series 1 preferred stock. Below is a summary of the Company’s preferred stock offerings.

Series A Preferred Stock

On November 1, 2016, the Company commenced an offering of up to $50 million in shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A”), par value $0.0001 per share, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, in a Regulation D 506(c) private placement to accredited investors. In connection with the private placement, on October 27, 2016, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 50,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Company closed the offering on March 24, 2017 and raised approximately $2.5 million, net of offering costs, in the Series A private placements.

The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the board of directors and declared by the Company out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, cash dividends at the rate of 5.75% per annum of the initial stated value of $1,000 per share. Since a Listing Event, as defined in the charter, did not occur by March 31, 2018, the cash dividend rate has been increased to 7.50%, until a Listing Event at which time, the annual dividend rate will be reduced to 5.75% of the Stated Value. Based on the number of Series A shares outstanding at September 30, 2020, the increased dividend rate costs the Company approximately $13,000 more per quarter in Series A dividends.

Subject to the Company’s redemption rights as described below, each Series A share will be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at the election of the holder thereof by written notice to the Company (each, a “Series A Conversion Notice”) containing the information required by the charter, at any time beginning upon the earlier of (i) 90 days after the occurrence of a Listing Event or (ii) the second anniversary of the final closing of the Series A offering (whether or not a Listing Event has occurred). Each Series A share will convert into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock determined by dividing (i) the sum of (A) 100% of the Stated Value, initially $1,000, plus (B) any accrued but unpaid dividends to, but not including, the date of conversion, by (ii) the conversion price for each share of the Company’s common stock (the “Series A Conversion Price”) determined as follows:

Provided there has been a Listing Event, if a Series A Conversion Notice with respect to any Series A share is received on or prior to the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the issuance of such share, the Series A Conversion Price will be equal to 110% of the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the delivery date of the Series A Conversion Notice.
Provided there has been a Listing Event, if a Series A Conversion Notice with respect to any Series A share is received after the first anniversary of the issuance of such share, the Series A Conversion Price will be equal to the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the delivery date of the Series A Conversion Notice.
If a Series A Conversion Notice with respect to any Series A share is received on or after the second anniversary of the final closing of the Series A offering, and at the time of receipt of such Series A Conversion Notice, a Listing Event has not occurred, the Series A Conversion Price will be equal to 100% of the Company’s net asset value per share.

If the Amended Charter becomes effective, the date by which holders of Series A must provide notice of conversion will be changed from the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the issuance of such share to December 31, 2017. This change will conform the terms of the Series A with the terms of the Series 1 with respect to conversions.

At any time, from time to time, after the 20th trading day after the date of a Listing Event, the Company (or its successor) will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A at the redemption price equal to 100% of the Stated Value, initially $1,000 per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends if any, to and including the date fixed for redemption. If the Company (or its successor) chooses to redeem any Shares, the Company (or its successor) has the right, in its sole discretion, to pay the redemption price in cash or in equal value of common stock of the Company (or its successor), based on the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the redemption, in exchange for the Series A. The Company (or its successor) also will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem all or any portion of the Series A subject to a Series A Conversion Notice for a cash payment to the holder thereof equal to the applicable redemption price, by delivering a redemption notice to the holder of such Shares on or prior to the 10th trading day prior to the close of trading on the applicable Conversion Date.


Each investor in the Series A received, for every $1,000 in shares subscribed by such investor, detachable warrants to purchase 30 shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange. The warrants’ exercise price is equal to 110% of the volume weighted average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock over a specified period as determined in accordance with the terms of the warrant; however, in no event shall the exercise price be less than $25 per share. As of September 30, 2020, there were detachable warrants that may be exercised for 84,510 shares of the Company’s common stock after the 90th day following the occurrence of a listing event. These potential warrants will expire five years from the 90th day after the occurrence of a listing event. If all the potential warrants outstanding at September 30, 2020 became exercisable because of a listing event and were exercised at the minimum price of $25 per share, gross proceeds to the Company would be approximately $2.1 million and the Company would as a result issue an additional 84,510 shares of common stock. As of the date of this filing the Company had an estimated fair market value of potential warrants that was immaterial.

On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series A, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series A.

Series 1 Preferred Stock

On March 29, 2017, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 97,000 shares of its authorized capital stock as shares of Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series 1”), par value $0.0001 per share. On April 7, 2017, the Company commenced the Regulation D 506(b) private placement of shares of Series 1, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, to accredited investors. On January 31, 2018 the Company closed this offering.

The holders of the Series 1 Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Company’s board of directors and declared by us out of legally available funds, cumulative, cash dividends on each Share at an annual rate of 5.50% of the Stated Value pari passu with the dividend preference of the Series A Preferred Stock and in preference to any payment of any dividend on the Company’s common stock; provided, however, that Qualified Purchasers (who purchased $1.0 million or more in a single closing) are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Company’s board of directors and declared by us out of legally available funds, cumulative, cash dividends on each Series 1 share held by such Qualified Purchaser at an annual rate of 5.75% of the Stated Value (instead of the annual rate of 5.50% for all other holders of the Series 1 shares) until April 7, 2018, at which time, the annual dividend rate will be reduced to 5.50% of Stated Value; provided further, however, that since a Listing Event has not occurred by April 7, 2018, the annual dividend rate on all Series 1 shares (without regard to Qualified Purchaser status) has been increased to 7.00% of the Stated Value until the occurrence of a Listing Event, at which time, the annual dividend rate will be reduced to 5.50% of the Stated Value. Based on the number of Series 1 shares outstanding at September 30, 2020, the increased dividend rate costs the Company approximately $150,000 more per quarter in Series 1 dividends.

Subject to the Company’s redemption rights as described below, each Series 1 share will be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at the election of the holder thereof by written notice to the Company (each, a “Series 1 Conversion Notice”) containing the information required by the charter, at any time beginning upon the earlier of (i) 45 days after the occurrence of a Listing Event or (ii) April 7, 2019 (whether or not a Listing Event has occurred). Each Series 1 share will convert into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock determined by dividing (i) the sum of (A) 100% of the Stated Value, initially $1,000, plus (B) any accrued but unpaid dividends to, but not including, the date of conversion, by (ii) the conversion price for each share of the Company’s common stock (the “Series 1 Conversion Price”) determined as follows:

Provided there has been a Listing Event, if a Series 1 Conversion Notice is received prior to December 1, 2017, the Series 1 Conversion Price will be equal to 110% of the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the delivery date of the Series 1 Conversion Notice.
Provided there has been a Listing Event, if a Series 1 Conversion Notice is received on or after December 1, 2017, the Series 1 Conversion Price will be equal to the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the delivery date of the Series 1 Conversion Notice.
If a Series 1 Conversion Notice is received on or after April 7, 2019, and at the time of receipt of such Series 1 Conversion Notice, a Listing Event has not occurred, the Series 1 Conversion Price for such Share will be equal to 100% of the Company’s net asset value per share, or NAV per share.

At any time, from time to time, on and after the later of (i) the 20th trading day after the date of a Listing Event, if any, or (ii) April 7, 2018, the Company (or its successor) will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series 1 Preferred Stock at the redemption price equal to 100% of the Stated Value, initially $1,000 per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends if any, to and including the date fixed for redemption. In case of any redemption of less than all of the shares by the Company, the shares to be redeemed will be selected either pro rata or in such other manner as the board of directors may determine. If the Company (or its successor) chooses to redeem any shares, the Company (or its successor) has the right, in its sole discretion, to pay the redemption price in cash or in equal value of common stock of the Company (or its successor), based on the volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of the Company (or its successor) for the 20 trading days prior to the redemption, in exchange for the shares. The Company (or its successor) also will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem all or any portion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock subject to a Series 1 Conversion Notice for a cash payment to the holder thereof equal to the applicable redemption price, by delivering a Redemption Notice to the holder of such Shares on or prior to the 10th trading day prior to the close of trading on the Conversion Date for such Shares.

Each investor in the Series 1 received, for every $1,000 in shares subscribed by such investor, detachable warrants to purchase 35 shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange. The warrants’ exercise price is equal to 110% of the volume weighted average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock over a specified period as determined in accordance with the terms of the warrant; however, in no event shall the exercise price be less than $25 per share. As of September 30, 2020, there were detachable warrants that may be exercised for 1,382,675 shares of the Company’s common stock after the 90th day following the occurrence of a listing event. These potential warrants will expire five years from the 90th day after the occurrence of a listing event. If all the potential warrants outstanding at September 30, 2020 became exercisable because of a listing event and were exercised at the minimum price of $25 per share, gross proceeds to the Company would be approximately $34.6 million and as a result the Company would issue an additional 1,382,675 shares of common stock. As of the date of this filing the Company had an estimated fair market value of potential warrants that was immaterial.

On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series 1, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series 1.

Note P — Deferred Management Internalization

Management Internalization

On March 29, 2019, the Company and the former Advisor entered into definitive agreements to internalize the Company’s management function effective April 1, 2019 (the “Internalization”). Since their formation, under the supervision of the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), the former Advisor has been responsible for managing the operations of the Company and MVP I, which merged with a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company in December 2017. As part of the Internalization, among other things, the Company agreed with the former Advisor to (i) terminate the Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2017 and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2018, which by its terms would have become effective only upon a listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange (collectively, the “Management Agreements”), each entered into among the Company, the former Advisor and MVP REIT II Operating Partnership, LP (the “Operating Partnership”); (ii) extend employment to the executives and other employees of the former Advisor; (iii) arrange for the former Advisor to continue to provide certain services with respect to outstanding indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries; and (iv) lease the employees of the former Advisor for a limited period of time prior to the time that such employees become employed by the Company.

Contribution Agreement

On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with the former Advisor, Vestin Realty Mortgage I, Inc. (“VRTA”) (solely for purposes of Section 1.01(c) thereof), Vestin Realty Mortgage II, Inc. (“VRTB”) (solely for purposes of Section 1.01(c) thereof) and Shustek (solely for purposes of Section 4.03 thereof). In exchange for the Contribution, the Company agreed to issue to the former Advisor 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock as consideration (the “Internalization Consideration”), issuable in four equal installments. The first and second installments of 400,000 shares of Common Stock per installment were issued on April 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The remaining installments will be issued on December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021 (or if December 31st is not a business day, the day that is the last business day of such year). If requested by the Company in connection with any contemplated capital raise by the Company, the former Advisor has agreed not to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Internalization Consideration for a period not to exceed the lock-up period that otherwise would apply to other stockholders of the Company in connection with such capital raise. See the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 3, 2019 and Contribution Agreement in Part I, Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for more information regarding the Management Internalization.

The Internalization transaction closed on April 1, 2019, and the following table shows the Internalization Consideration to be paid in aggregate to the former Advisor. The first and second installment of 400,000 shares of Common Stock per installment were issued to the former Advisor on April 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Note Q— Employee Benefit Plan

Effective July 1, 2019, the Company began participating in a multi-employer 401(k) Safe Harbor Plan (the “Plan”), which is a defined contribution plan covering all eligible employees. Under the provisions of the Plan, participants may direct the Company to defer a portion of their compensation to the Plan, subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. The Company provides for an employer matching contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% of eligible compensation and 50% of the next 2% of eligible compensation contributed by each employee, which is funded in cash. All contributions vest immediately.

Total expense recorded for the matching 401(k) contribution in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $10,000 and $25,000, respectively. Total expense for the matching 401 (k) contribution in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $5,000.

Note R — Subsequent Events
On October 23, 2020, the Company received the remaining condemnation proceeds of $596,000 from the city of Minneapolis and funded the remaining $246,000 due to the ANICO escrow account on October 26, 2020.
On November 13, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with ABM Industry Groups, LLC.  The settlement is in consideration for the release of ABM for any and all issues arising out of disputes related to the leases for MVP Indianapolis City Park Garage, LLC, MCI 1372 Street, LLC and MVP Clarksburg Lot, LLC.

potential damage and costs arising from natural disasters, terrorism and other extraordinary events, including extraordinary events affecting parking facilities included in the Company’s portfolio;
risks inherent in the real estate business, including ability to secure leases or parking management contracts at favorable terms, tenant defaults, potential liability relating to environmental matters and the lack of liquidity of real estate investments;
competitive factors that may limit the Company’s ability to make investments or attract and retain tenants;
the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows to pay distributions to the Company’s stockholders;
the Company’s failure to maintain its status as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020;
the Company’s ability to successfully integrate pending transactions and implement an operating strategy;

changes in interest rates;
changes to generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP;
the Company’s ability to negotiate amendments or extensions to existing debt agreements.
the impact on our business and those of our tenants from epidemics, pandemics or outbreaks of an illness, disease or virus (including COVID-19); and
potential adverse impacts from changes to the U.S. tax laws.

All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed herein will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward – looking statements made after the date of this Quarterly Report, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason.

Overview

Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2019, the Company has operated in a manner to qualify as a REIT. However, for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, the Company does not appear to be in compliance with the REIT income tests. These REIT income tests are measured on an annual basis, and we are evaluating options and strategies that may enable us to maintain our REIT status for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020 notwithstanding our inability to comply with these income tests in the past two quarters.  If implemented, these options and strategies, may have negative ancillary impacts on our business and operations, including potentially increasing our overall tax liability.  If we determine that the potential negative impacts of these options outweigh the benefits of potentially maintaining our REIT status, we may choose not to implement any of these options.  Moreover, even if we choose to implement any of these options, no assurances can be given that our implementation will be successful  or that these options will in fact enable us to maintain our status as a REIT for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020.  Accordingly, unless we choose, and are able, to successfully implement an alternative operating strategy, it is highly likely that the Company will no longer qualify as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for our taxable year ended December 31, 2020, we would no longer be required to make distributions of our annual taxable income in order to maintain our REIT status.  Moreover, unless entitled to relief under specific statutory or administrative provisions, we would be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following 2020.  We believe that we may not be entitled to this statutory relief, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such relief.

The Company was incorporated in Maryland on May 4, 2015 and is the sole member of the Operating Partnership. The Company owns substantially all of its assets and conduct its operations through the Operating Partnership.

Prior to the management Internalization effective on April 1, 2019, the Company was externally managed by MVP Realty Advisors, LLC, dba The Parking REIT Advisors (the “former Advisor”), a Nevada limited liability company. As a result of the management Internalization, the Company will no longer incur an asset management fee equal to 1.1% of the cost of all assets held by the Company, effective April 1, 2019.

Impact of COVID-19

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly adversely impacted global economic activity, contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets and resulted in unprecedented job losses causing many to fear an imminent global recession. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and, as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified, many countries, including the United States, have reacted by instituting quarantines, density limitations and social distancing measures, mandating business and school closures and restricting travel.

As a result of these measures, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to negatively impact almost every industry directly or indirectly, including ours and the industries in which our tenants operate, with much of the impact still unknown. Further, the impacts of a potential worsening of global economic conditions and the continued disruptions to, and volatility in, the credit and financial markets, consumer spending as well as other unanticipated consequences remain unknown. In particular, many of the Company’s properties are located in urban centers, near government buildings and sports centers. Demand for parking in these locations depends in large part on customer traffic, and conditions that lead to a decline in customer traffic have had and may continue to have a material and adverse impact on those businesses. Many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings, requiring people to shelter in place and implementing social distancing measures, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. Such events are adversely impacting and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s tenants’ sales and/or cause the temporary closure of the Company’s tenants’ businesses, which could significantly disrupt or cause a closure of their operations and, in turn, may impact or eliminate the rental revenue the Company generates from its leases with them. In addition, some state governments and other authorities were in varying stages of lifting or modifying some of these measures and some have already been forced to, and others may in the future, reinstitute these measures or impose new, more restrictive measures, if the risks, or the perception of the risks, related to the COVID-19 pandemic worsen at any time. The Company’s rental revenue and the return on its investments has been and may continue to be materially adversely affected by restrictions requiring people to shelter in place in reaction to the COVID-19 outbreak and may be further materially adversely affected to the extent that economic conditions result in the elimination of jobs or the migration of jobs from the urban centers where the Company’s parking facilities are situated to other locations. In particular, a majority of the Company’s property leases call for additional percentage rent, which will be adversely impacted by a decline in the demand for parking.


The Company experienced certain disruptions in base rent revenue and percentage rent revenue during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s see Results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019. While the Company is currently unable to completely estimate the future impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to contain its spread will have on the Company’s business and on its tenants, as of November 16, 2020, the Company had entered into thirty five lease amendments with eight tenants/operators. The terms of such lease amendments generally provide for one of (i) a reduction in rent for a period of four to seven months, (ii) conversion of the lease to a management agreement pursuant to which the operator will receive a monthly fee; or (iii) extension of the lease. While the Company continues to review and negotiate rent relief requests with tenants and plans to continue to execute lease amendments based on its evaluation of each tenant’s circumstances, there can be no assurance the Company will reach an agreement with any tenant or if an agreement is reached, that any such tenant will be able to repay any such deferred rent in the future. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial and operational performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and its impact on the Company’s tenants, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations cannot be determined at this time. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, see Note R — Subsequent Events in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report and Part II, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors.”

In January of 2019, we were notified by the City of Minneapolis that a portion of our property, Minneapolis City Parking, located at 1022 Hennepin Ave would be utilized for an expansion of the street and for a new transit center.  After negotiating with the City for over a year, we were able to settle on the City taking approximately 6,000 sq. ft. of frontage on Hennepin Avenue, where we would still be left with one entrance on Hennepin Avenue and multiple entrances and exits on 10th and 11th streets.  The City agreed to compensate The Parking REIT in the amount of $1.3 million, with a portion to be used to reconfigure the parking lot, to enable it to fit 266 parking spaces compared to 268 prior to the taking, and will be required to landscape the front portion of the lot once the improvements are complete.  Proceeds totaling $1.3 million have been received in full as of the time of this filing.
On July 31, 2020, the Company entered into three loan modification agreements and an escrow agreement with American National Insurance Company (“ANICO”) for the following three loans: (i) Minneapolis City Parking, LLC, (ii) West 9th Properties II, LLC and (iii) MVP Fort Worth Taylor, LLC in which $950,000 in condemnation proceeds from the City of Minneapolis shall be used to pay the monthly principal and interest due under each note, beginning with the payment due June 1, 2020, until the termination date defined as the earlier of (i) payment in full of the Minneapolis City loan or (ii) the date that the debt service coverage of the real property securing each loan is at least 1.10 to 1.0 calculated on a trailing three-month basis. On August 6, 2020, $704,000 was wired to the ANICO escrow account. On October 23, 2020, the Company received the remaining condemnation proceeds of $596,000 from the city of Minneapolis and funded the remaining $246,000 due to the ANICO escrow account on October 26, 2020.
On September 25, 2020, the Company entered into Parking Management Agreements with Interstate Parking Company for the following three properties: MVP St. Paul Holiday Garage, LLC effective October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2025; MVP Milwaukee Old World, LLC effective November 1, 2020 through October 31, 2025 and MVP Milwaukee Arena Lot, LLC effective December 1, 2020 through November 30, 2025. These Parking Management Agreements provide for Interstate Parking Company to receive a monthly base management fee and monthly incentive fee which consists of a certain percent of net operating income over a defined threshold. All other net operating income is remitted to the Company.
Objectives

The Company’s primary objectives are to:

preserve capital;
generate current income; and
explore strategic alternatives to provide liquidity to stockholders, including sales of assets, potential liquidation of the Company, a sale of the Company or a portion thereof or a strategic business combination.

In mid-2019, the Company engaged financial and legal advisors and began to explore a broad range of potential strategic alternatives to provide liquidity to stockholders. The Company is currently exploring certain strategic alternatives, including potential sales of assets, a potential sale of the Company or a portion thereof, a potential strategic business combination or a potential liquidation. However, there can be no assurance that the Board’s exploration of potential strategic alternatives will result in any change of strategy or transaction being entered into or consummated or, if a transaction is undertaken, as to its terms, structure or timing. In addition, the value received in any potential strategic alternative would likely be less than the NAV most recently estimated by the Company’s board of directors. Our assets have been valued based upon appraisal standards and the values of our assets using these methods are not required to reflect market value under those standards and will not necessarily result in a reflection of fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. Further, different parties using different property-specific and general real estate and capital market assumptions, estimates, judgments and standards could derive a different estimated NAV per share, which could be significantly different from the estimated NAV per share determined by our board of directors. The estimated NAV per share is not a representation or indication that, among other things a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to the estimated NAV per share upon liquidation of assets and settlement of our liabilities or upon a sale of our company or a third party would offer the estimated NAV per share in an arms-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our shares of common stock.

For example, we expect to incur additional costs in connection with ongoing litigation, the SEC investigation discussed in Note N - Legal in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and legal and consulting fees associated with pursuing any potential strategic alternatives, which in the aggregate may be material, none of which was taken in consideration when the board of directors determined the prior estimated NAV per share. Please see our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 28, 2019 for additional information regarding the NAV calculation, as well as “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to an Investment in the Company–Stockholders should not rely on the estimated NAV per share as being an accurate measure of the current value of our shares of common stock” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Prior Investment Strategy

The Company’s investment strategy has historically focused primarily on acquiring, owning and managing parking facilities, including parking lots, parking garages and other parking structures throughout the United States and Canada.  The Company historically focused primarily on investing in income-producing parking lots and garages with air rights in central business districts. In building its current portfolio, the Company sought geographically targeted investments that present key demand drivers, that were expected to generate cash flows and provide greater predictability during periods of economic uncertainty. Such targeted investments include, but are not limited to, parking facilities near one or more of the following demand drivers:

Downtown core
Government buildings and courthouses
Sporting venues
Hospitals
Hotels

However, as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic, among other factors, such demand drivers have been and are expected to be significantly diminished for an indeterminate period of time. Many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings or requiring people to shelter in place, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, see Part II, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors.”

Prior Investment Criteria

The Company historically focused on acquiring properties that met the following criteria:

properties that were expected to generate current cash flow;
properties that were expected to be located in populated metropolitan areas; and
properties were expected to produce income within 12 months of the Company’s acquisition.

As noted above, the Company does not currently expect to make any additional acquisitions unless and until it is able to sell some of its existing assets, and then only after ensuring that it has sufficient liquidity resources.  In the event of a future acquisition, the Company would expect the foregoing criteria to serve as guidelines, however, Management and the Company’s board of directors may vary from these guidelines to acquire properties which they believe represent value opportunities.

Management Internalization

On March 29, 2019, the Company and the former Advisor entered into definitive agreements to internalize the Company’s management function effective April 1, 2019 (the “Internalization”). Under the supervision of the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), the former Advisor had been responsible for managing the operations of the Company and MVP I, which merged with a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company in December 2017, since their respective formations. As part of the Internalization, among other things, the Company agreed with the former Advisor to (i) terminate the Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2017 and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2018, which by its terms would have become effective only upon a listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange (collectively, the “Management Agreements”), each entered into among the Company, the former Advisor and MVP REIT II Operating Partnership, LP (the “Operating Partnership”); (ii) extend employment to the executives and other employees of the former Advisor; (iii) arrange for the former Advisor to continue to provide certain services with respect to outstanding indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries; and (iv) lease the employees of the former Advisor for a limited period of time prior to the time that such employees become employed by the Company.


Contribution Agreement

On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with the former Advisor, Vestin Realty Mortgage I, Inc. (“VRTA”) (solely for purposes of Section 1.01(c) thereof), Vestin Realty Mortgage II, Inc. (“VRTB”) (solely for purposes of Section 1.01(c) thereof) and Shustek (solely for purposes of Section 4.03 thereof). In exchange for the Contribution, the Company agreed to issue to the former Advisor 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock as consideration (the “Consideration”), issuable in four equal installments. The first and second installments of 400,000 shares of Common Stock per installment were issued on the April 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019, respectively. See Note P — Deferred Management Internalization in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information. The remaining installments will be issued on December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021 (or if December 31st is not a business day, the day that is the last business day of such year). If requested by the Company in connection with any contemplated capital raise by the Company, the former Advisor has agreed not to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Internalization Consideration for a period not to exceed the lock-up period that otherwise would apply to other stockholders of the Company in connection with such capital raise. See the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 3, 2019 for more information regarding the Management Internalization.

Rental revenue

On January 1, 2020 the operating lease of MVP PF Memphis Poplar 2013, LLC (“MVP Memphis Poplar”) by Premium Parking was terminated.  According to the terms of the termination agreement a termination fee of $144,000 is due from Premium Parking to MVP Memphis Poplar. This fee will be paid monthly in the amount of $3,000 commencing March 1, 2020 and continuing through February 1, 2024.

Upon the termination of the operating lease MVP Memphis Poplar entered into a Modified NNN lease agreement with Best Park Tennessee, LLC (“Best Park”).  The term of the lease is 50 months.  Best Park will pay annual rent of $270,000.  In addition, the lease provides percentage rent with MVP Memphis Poplar receiving 65% of gross receipts over $370,000 per lease year.  The tenant is responsible for paying property taxes.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Company transitioned eleven leases to management agreements due to the fact that many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings, requiring people to shelter in place and implementing social distancing measures, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. This reduced demand for parking is adversely impacting and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s tenants’ sales and/or cause the temporary closure of the Company’s tenants’ businesses, which could significantly disrupt or cause a closure of their operations and, in turn, may impact or eliminate the rental revenue the Company generates from its leases with them. Per these management agreements, the tenant now operates the property on behalf of the Company and pays their operating expenses from gross parking revenue and is required to remit an agreed upon percentage of the remainder to the Company instead of base rent payments. Revenues from these properties are recorded as management income.

The Company is continuing to monitor the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread on rental rates and rent collections. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has entered into thirty-five lease amendments with eight tenants/operators that became effective during the second quarter. The terms of such lease amendments generally provide for one of (i) a reduction in rent for a period of four to seven months, (ii) conversion of the lease to a management agreement pursuant to which the operator will receive a monthly fee; or (iii) extension of the lease.  Although the Company is and will continue to be actively engaged in rent collection efforts related to uncollected rent, as well as working with certain tenants who have requested rent relief, the Company can provide no assurance that such efforts or its efforts in future periods will be successful, particularly in the event that the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread continue for a prolonged period. The decrease in base rent income and percentage rent income during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 is primarily due to these lease amendments and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the third quarter of 2020. In particular, many of the Company’s properties are located in urban centers, near government buildings and sporting venues, which depend in large part on customer traffic, and conditions that lead to a decline in customer traffic have had and may continue to have a material and adverse impact on those businesses. Many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings, requiring people to shelter in place and implementing social distancing measures, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. See Part II, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” for more information on the effect of COVID-19 on our business.

Property taxes

The increase in property taxes in 2020 compared to 2019 is attributable primarily to the lease amendments which have decreased the property tax burden on the Company’s tenants for 2020.

General and administrative

The decrease in general and administrative expenses from 2019 to 2020 of $173,000 was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease in director and officer insurance expense of approximately $151,000, (ii) a decrease in payroll expense of approximately $92,000 and (iii) a decrease in investor services expense of approximately $31,000. The decrease in the director and officer insurance expense is due to the fact that the premium paid for the six-year tail policy, purchased on June 30, 2019, was fully expensed during the twelve months ended June 30, 2020. These decreases were partially offset by increases in taxes & licenses expense of approximately $77,000 and office rent expense of approximately $25,000.

Professional fees

The decrease in professional fees was primarily due to lower legal fees incurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and $0.8 million of insurance proceeds received, during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 for claims made against the director and officer insurance policy. These reimbursements were related to legal expenses incurred relating to lawsuits filed in 2019 and the SEC investigation, which was initiated in June of 2019.

See Note N – Legal in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Management internalization

The Company was externally managed by the Advisor prior to the management Internalization that became effective on April 1, 2019.  These expenses include (i) the Internalization Consideration to be paid in aggregate to the Manager and (ii) professional fees incurred to complete the Internalization of the Company’s management. See Note A — Organization and Business Operations and Note P – Subsequent Events and Note O – Deferred Management Internalization in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Acquisition expenses

Acquisition expenses related to purchased properties are capitalized with the investment in real estate. Acquisition expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 relate solely to dead deals.

Depreciation and amortization expenses

The increase in depreciation and amortization expenses was due to assets placed in service following the completion of construction projects or general improvements on properties already held.

Impairment

During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded approximately $6.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of asset impairment charges. These charges were recorded to write down the carrying value of these assets to their current appraised values net of estimated closing costs. See Note B — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Interest expense

The decrease in interest expense for the period ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, is primarily attributable to principal amortization of existing debt, a slight reduction of interest rates on the variable rate loan and the net paydown of certain private loans.

In the past, to maximize the use of cash, the Company sought opportunities to utilize debt financing in acquisitions, including the use of long-term debt. The interest expense will vary based on the amount of the Company’s borrowings and current interest rates at the time of financing. Historically, the Company’s intent was to secure appropriate leverage with the lowest interest rate available. The terms of any loans, in the future, will vary depending on the quality of the applicable property, the credit worthiness of the tenant and the amount of income the property is able to generate through parking leases. There is no assurance, however, that the Company will be acquiring additional properties in the future or will be able to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Interest expense recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 includes amortization of loan issuance costs. Total amortization of loan issuance cost for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

For additional information see Note J – Notes Payable in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Gain on sale of investment in real estate

During September 2019, the Company sold the surface parking lot and office building in Fort Lauderdale for $6.1 million, which resulted in a gain from sale of investments of approximately $2.3 million.

Rental revenue

On January 1, 2020 the operating lease of MVP PF Memphis Poplar 2013, LLC (“MVP Memphis Poplar”) by Premium Parking was terminated.  According to the terms of the termination agreement a termination fee of $144,000 is due from Premium Parking to MVP Memphis Poplar. This fee will be paid monthly in the amount of $3,000 commencing March 1, 2020 and continuing through February 1, 2024.

Upon the termination of the operating lease MVP Memphis Poplar entered into a Modified NNN lease agreement with Best Park Tennessee, LLC (“Best Park”).  The term of the lease is 50 months.  Best Park will pay annual rent of $270,000.  In addition, the lease provides percentage rent with MVP Memphis Poplar receiving 65% of gross receipts over $370,000 per lease year.  The tenant is responsible for paying property taxes.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Company temporarily transitioned fourteen leases to management agreements due to the fact that many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings, requiring people to shelter in place and implementing social distancing measures, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. This reduced demand for parking is adversely impacting and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s tenants’ sales and/or cause the temporary closure of the Company’s tenants’ businesses, which could significantly disrupt or cause a closure of their operations and, in turn, may impact or eliminate the rental revenue the Company generates from its leases with them.

The Company is continuing to monitor the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread on rental rates and rent collections. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has entered into thirty-five lease amendments with eight tenants/operators that became effective during the second quarter. The terms of such lease amendments generally provide for one of (i) a reduction in rent for a period of four to seven months, (ii) conversion of the lease to a management agreement pursuant to which the operator will receive a monthly fee; or (iii) extension of the lease.  Although the Company is and will continue to be actively engaged in rent collection efforts related to uncollected rent, as well as working with certain tenants who have requested rent relief, the Company can provide no assurance that such efforts or its efforts in future periods will be successful, particularly in the event that the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread continue for a prolonged period. The decrease in base rent income and percentage rent income during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily due to these lease amendments and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the second quarter of 2020. In particular, many of the Company’s properties are located in urban centers, near government buildings and sports centers, which depend in large part on customer traffic, and conditions that lead to a decline in customer traffic have had and may continue to have a material and adverse impact on those businesses. Many state and local governments are currently restricting public gatherings, requiring people to shelter in place and implementing social distancing measures, which has in some cases eliminated or severely reduced the demand for parking. See Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” in Part II of this report. For more information on the effect of COVID-19 on our business, see Part II, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors.”

Property taxes

The increase in property taxes in 2020 compared to 2019 is attributable primarily to the lease amendments which have decreased the property tax burden on the Company’s tenants for 2020.

Asset management expense – related party

The decrease in asset management expense is due to the Internalization, as a result of which the Company no longer incurred an asset management expense beginning April 1, 2019.

See Note E — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

General and administrative

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses increased $944,000 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in (i) director and officer insurance expense of approximately $805,000, (ii) office rent of approximately $114,000 and (iii) taxes and licenses expense of approximately $51,000. As disclosed in Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company purchased a six-year tail policy on June 30, 2019 and fully expensed this premium over the twelve months ended June 30, 2020. The Company also renewed its existing director and officer insurance policy on this date and the Company’s premiums for the current policy also increased over the prior year. As a result, total director and officer insurance expense increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. These increases were partially offset by decreases in other expenses.

Professional fees

The decrease in professional fees was primarily due to $4.1 million of insurance proceeds received for claims made against the director and officer insurance policy.  These reimbursements were related to legal expenses incurred relating to lawsuits filed in 2019 and the SEC investigation, which was initiated in June of 2019.


See Note N – Legal in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Management internalization

The Company was externally managed by the Advisor prior to the management Internalization that became effective on April 1, 2019.  These expenses include (i) the Internalization Consideration to be paid in aggregate to the Manager and (ii) professional fees incurred to complete the Internalization of the Company’s management. See Note A — Organization and Business Operations and Note P – Subsequent Events and Note O – Deferred Management Internalization in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Acquisition expenses

Acquisition expenses related to purchased properties are capitalized with the investment in real estate. Acquisition expenses incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 relate solely to dead deals.

Depreciation and amortization expenses

The increase in depreciation and amortization expenses was due to assets placed in service following the completion of construction projects or general improvements on properties already held.

Impairment

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded approximately $14.1 million and $1.5 million of asset impairment charges, respectively. These charges were recorded to write down the carrying value of these assets to their current appraised values net of estimated closing costs. See Note B — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Interest expense

The decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, is primarily attributable to lower interest rates for the variable rate loans and principal amortization of existing debt partially offset by net increase in long term debt.

In the past, to maximize the use of cash, the Company sought opportunities to utilize debt financing in acquisitions, including the use of long-term debt. The interest expense will vary based on the amount of the Company’s borrowings and current interest rates at the time of financing. Historically, the Company’s intent was to secure appropriate leverage with the lowest interest rate available. The terms of any loans, in the future, will vary depending on the quality of the applicable property, the credit worthiness of the tenant and the amount of income the property is able to generate through parking leases. There is no assurance, however, that the Company will be acquiring additional properties in the future or will be able to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Interest expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 includes amortization of loan issuance costs. Total amortization of loan issuance cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

For additional information see Note J – Notes Payable in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.


Gain from sale of investment in real estate

On May 26, 2020 the Company sold a parking garage in San Jose, CA for cash consideration of $4.1 million to UC 88 Garage Owner LLC, a third-party buyer.  The Company used $2.5 million of the proceeds to pay off the existing promissory note secured by the MVP San Jose 88 Garage, LLC. The property was originally purchased in June 2016 for approximately $3.6 million. The gain on sale is approximately $0.7 million.

During September 2019, the Company sold the surface parking lot and office building in Fort Lauderdale for $6.1 million, which resulted in a gain from sale of investments of approximately $2.3 million.

Other income

During January 2020, the Company earned $144,000 from Premium Parking for the early termination of the parking lease at MVP Memphis Poplar.

During February 2020, the Company received approximately $6,000 for the energy efficiency fee at Detroit Center Garage.  Upon the completion of the lighting project at this property last year, the tenant agreed that if the energy costs did not meet or surpass $46,000 for the year, then the tenant would pay the Company 80% of the difference.

Rental Income and Property Gross Revenues

Since a majority of the Company’s property leases call for additional percentage rent, the Company monitors the gross revenue generated by each property on a monthly basis. The higher the property’s gross revenue the higher the Company’s potential percentage rent. The graph below shows the comparison of the Company’s quarterly rental income to the gross revenue generated by the properties.  As noted above under “Overview—Impact of COVID-19,” as a result of current economic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread, percentage rent earned in the current period was significantly reduced compared to prior periods, and the Company expects that the amount of percentage rent to be earned in future periods will be significantly reduced if restrictions intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19 continue.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

The Company believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. Additionally, publicly registered, non-listed REITs typically have a significant amount of acquisition activity and are substantially more dynamic during their initial years of investment and operation. While other start-up entities may also experience significant acquisition activity during their initial years, the Company believes that non-listed REITs are unique in that they have a limited life with targeted exit strategies within a relatively limited time frame after the acquisition activity ceases.


In order to provide a more complete understanding of the operating performance of a REIT, NAREIT promulgated a measure known as FFO. FFO is defined as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating property, adding back asset impairment write-downs, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets), and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Because FFO calculations exclude such items as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. As a result, the Company believes that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s performance relative to the Company’s competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company does, making comparisons less meaningful.

The Investment Program Association (“IPA”) issued Practice Guideline 2010-01 (the “IPA MFFO Guideline”) on November 2, 2010, which extended financial measures to include modified funds from operations (“MFFO”). In computing MFFO, FFO is adjusted for certain non-operating cash items such as acquisition fees and expenses and certain non-cash items such as straight-line rent, amortization of in-place lease valuations, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments, nonrecurring impairments of real estate-related investments, mark-to-market adjustments included in net income (loss), and nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income (loss) from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. Management is responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk. To achieve the Company’s objectives, the Company may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. In order to mitigate the Company’s interest rate risk on certain financial instruments, if any, the Company may enter into interest rate cap agreements and in order to mitigate the Company’s risk to foreign currency exposure, if any, the Company may enter into foreign currency hedges. The Company views fair value adjustments of derivatives, impairment charges and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as non-recurring items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. Additionally, the Company believes it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations, assessments regarding general market conditions, and the specific performance of properties owned, which can change over time.

No less frequently than annually, the Company evaluates events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present, the Company assesses whether the carrying value of the assets will be recovered through the future undiscounted operating cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) expected from the use of the assets and the eventual disposition. Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of MFFO as described above, investors are cautioned that because impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the relatively limited term of the Company’s operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges through operational net revenues or cash flows prior to any liquidity event. The Company adopted the IPA MFFO Guideline as management believes that MFFO is a helpful indicator of the Company’s on-going portfolio performance. More specifically, MFFO isolates the financial results of the REIT’s operations. MFFO, however, is not considered an appropriate measure of historical earnings as it excludes certain significant costs that are otherwise included in reported earnings in accordance with GAAP. Further, since the measure is based on historical financial information, MFFO for the period presented may not be indicative of future results or the Company’s future ability to pay the Company’s dividends. By providing FFO and MFFO, the Company presents information that assists investors in aligning their analysis with management’s analysis of long-term operating activities. MFFO also allows for a comparison of the performance of the Company’s portfolio with other REITs that are not currently engaging in acquisitions, as well as a comparison of the Company’s performance with that of other non-traded REITs, as MFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and the Company believes it is often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes. As explained below, management’s evaluation of the Company’s operating performance excludes items considered in the calculation of MFFO based on the following economic considerations:

Straight-line rent. Most of the Company’s leases provide for periodic minimum rent payment increases throughout the term of the lease. In accordance with GAAP, these periodic minimum rent payment increases during the term of a lease are recorded to rental revenue on a straight-line basis in order to reconcile the difference between accrual and cash basis accounting. As straight-line rent is a GAAP non-cash adjustment and is included in historical earnings, it is added back to FFO to arrive at MFFO as a means of determining operating results of the Company’s portfolio.
Amortization of in-place lease valuation. As this item is a cash flow adjustment made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, it is added back to FFO to arrive at MFFO as a means of determining operating results of the Company’s portfolio.


Acquisition-related costs. The Company was organized primarily with the purpose of acquiring or investing in income-producing real property in order to generate operational income and cash flow that will allow us to provide regular cash distributions to the Company’s stockholders. In the process, the Company incurs non-reimbursable affiliated and non-affiliated acquisition-related costs, which, in accordance with GAAP, are expensed as incurred and are included in the determination of income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). These costs have historically been funded with cash proceeds from the sale of common or preferred stock or included as a component of the amount borrowed to acquire such real estate. If the Company acquires a property in the future, such costs will be paid from additional debt, operational earnings or cash flow, net proceeds from the sale of properties, or ancillary cash flows. In evaluating the performance of the Company’s portfolio over time, management employs business models and analyses that differentiate the costs to acquire investments from the investments’ revenues and expenses. Acquisition-related costs may negatively affect the Company’s operating results, cash flows from operating activities and cash available to fund distributions during periods in which properties are acquired, as the proceeds to fund these costs would otherwise be invested in other real estate related assets. By excluding acquisition-related costs, MFFO may not provide an accurate indicator of the Company’s operating performance during periods in which acquisitions are made. However, it can provide an indication of the Company’s on-going ability to generate cash flow from operations and continue as a going concern after the Company ceases to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis, which can be compared to the MFFO of other non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have similar operating characteristics to the Company. Management believes that excluding these costs from MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management.

For all of these reasons, the Company believes the non-GAAP measures of FFO and MFFO, in addition to income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful to investors in evaluating the performance of the Company’s real estate portfolio. However, a material limitation associated with FFO and MFFO is that they are not indicative of the Company’s cash available to fund distributions since other uses of cash, such as capital expenditures at the Company’s properties and principal payments of debt, are not deducted when calculating FFO and MFFO. Additionally, MFFO has limitations as a performance measure in an offering such as the Company’s where the price of a share of common stock is a stated value. The use of MFFO as a measure of long-term operating performance on value is also limited if the Company does not continue to operate under the Company’s current business plan as noted above. MFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing ability to generate cash flow from operations and continue as a going concern in future operating periods, and, after the sale of the Company’s common stock and acquisition stages are complete and NAV is disclosed. However, MFFO is not a useful measure in evaluating NAV because impairments are considered in determining NAV but not in determining MFFO. Therefore, FFO and MFFO should not be viewed as a more prominent measure of performance than income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities and each should be reviewed in connection with GAAP measurements.

None of the SEC, NAREIT or any other organization has opined on the acceptability of the adjustments contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate MFFO and its use as a non-GAAP performance measure. In the future, the SEC or NAREIT may decide to standardize the allowable exclusions across the REIT industry, and the Company may have to adjust the calculation and characterization of this non-GAAP measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company commenced operations on December 30, 2015.

The Company’s principal demand for funds historically was for the acquisition of real estate assets, the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures, principal and interest on the Company’s outstanding indebtedness and the payment of distributions to the Company’s stockholders. The cash required for acquisitions and investments in real estate has, to date, been funded primarily from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock, including those shares offered for sale through the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, dispositions of properties in the Company’s portfolio and through third party financing and the assumption of debt on acquired properties.

On December 31, 2016, the Company ceased all selling efforts for its initial public offering of shares of its common stock at $25.00 per share, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (No. 333-205893). The Company accepted additional subscriptions through March 31, 2017, the last day of the initial public offering, and raised approximately $61.3 million in the initial public offering before payment of deferred offering costs of approximately $1.1 million, contribution from an affiliate of the former Advisor of approximately $1.1 million and cash distributions of approximately $1.8 million.

The Company raised approximately $2.5 million, net of offering costs, in funds from the private placements of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and approximately $36.0 million, net of offering costs, in funds from the private placements of Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock.

As disclosed in Note N - Legal in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report, Nasdaq has informed the Company that (i) the Company’s common stock will not be approved for listing currently on the Nasdaq Global Market, and (ii) it is highly unlikely that the Company’s common stock would be approved for listing while the SEC investigation is ongoing. There can be no assurance that the Company’s common stock will ever be approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Market or any other stock exchange, even if the SEC investigation referred to above is completed and no wrongdoing is found and no action is taken in connection therewith against the Company, Mr. Shustek or any other person. As a result of this Nasdaq decision, the Company has determined not to proceed with the registration and sale of the Company’s common stock as contemplated by the Registration Statement (File No. 333-205893) on Form S-11 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 5, 2018 and such Registration Statement was withdrawn on August 29, 2019.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s debt consisted of approximately $120.0 million in fixed rate debt and $39.5 million in variable rate debt, net of loan issuance costs and the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were approximately $6.9 million ($3.4 million of which was restricted cash). The Company’s unrestricted cash balance was approximately $3.1 million as of the date of filing.

The Company currently has little cash available for acquisitions and no ability to raise new debt or equity financing, and, accordingly, the Company’s only source of near-term liquidity is from operating activities or the sale of assets. In order to enhance liquidity, the Company’s board of directors is exploring certain strategic alternatives, including sales of assets, a sale of the Company or a portion thereof or a strategic business combination. For additional information see Note B - Liquidity Matters in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report.

Sources and Uses of Cash

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019:

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were approximately $6.9 million as of September 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $2.8 million from the balance at September 30, 2019.


Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $5.3 million, compared to approximately $3.2 million for the same period in 2019. The increase in cash used was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable and an increase in net loss adjusted for impairment recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to net loss adjusted for impairment and internalization expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in gain on sale of investment and other assets and prepaids.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $0.5 million, compared to approximately $2.5 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease in cash provided by investing activities was due primarily to lower proceeds from the sale of investments in real estate.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $0.1 million compared to approximately $1.0 million provided by financing activities during the same period in 2019. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the fact that there were less proceeds from notes payable acquired during the period and payments on notes payable of approximately $3.0 million.

Company Indebtedness

On February 8, 2019, subsidiaries of the Company, consisting of MVP PF St. Louis 2013, LLC (“MVP St. Louis”), and MVP PF Memphis Poplar 2013 (“MVP Memphis Poplar”), LLC entered into a loan agreement, dated as of February 8, 2019, with LoanCore Capital Credit REIT LLC (“LoanCore”). Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, LoanCore agreed to loan MVP St. Louis and MVP Memphis Poplar $5.5 million to repay and discharge the outstanding KeyBank loan agreement. The loan is secured by a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing on each of the properties owned by MVP St. Louis and MVP Memphis Poplar.

The loan with Bank of America for the MVP Detroit garage requires the Company to maintain $2.3 million in liquidity at all times, which is defined as unencumbered cash and cash equivalents. As of the date of this filing, the Company was in compliance with this lender requirement.  However, if the Company is unable to sell assets it is likely the Company will be unable to meet this requirement by the end of the fourth quarter of 2020 or during the first quarter of 2021. The Company will need to obtain a waiver for this requirement and if it is unable to obtain a waiver, this could result in an event of default and acceleration of such loan if the lender is unwilling to waive the requirement.

The Company is in preliminary discussions with LoanCore to exercise the one-year extension option in the loan agreement to extend the maturity of the $39.5 million loan, due December 9, 2020; however, there can be no assurance this option will be exercised. If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date and is unable to repay the loan at maturity, the lenders could foreclose upon the collateral securing the loan, in which case the Company would lose its significant amount of equity value in such collateral.

The Company’s secured mortgage debt of approximately $53.8 million and $53.9 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, require Mr. Shustek and the former Advisor to continue to provide guarantees. In connection with the Contribution Agreement and the Internalization, Mr. Shustek and the former Advisor will continue to provide such guarantees. For additional information regarding the Company’s indebtedness, please see Note J – Notes Payable in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

The Company may establish capital reserves with respect to particular investments. The Company also may, but is not required to, establish reserves out of cash flow generated by investments or out of net sale proceeds in non-liquidating sale transactions. Working capital reserves are typically utilized to fund tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures. The Company’s lenders also may require working capital reserves.

To the extent that the working capital reserve is insufficient to satisfy the Company’s cash requirements, additional funds may be provided from cash generated from operations or through short-term borrowing, if such borrowing becomes available in the future. In addition, subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may incur indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of any real estate asset to the extent such indebtedness becomes available to the Company in the future, refinance the debt thereon, arrange for the leveraging of any previously unencumbered property or reinvest the proceeds of financing or refinancing in additional properties.


The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly adversely impacted global economic activity, contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets and resulted in unprecedented job losses causing many to fear an imminent global recession. Due to these factors, the Company entered into the following loan modification agreements with its lenders during the quarters ended June 30 and September 2020.

On May 12, 2020, the Company entered into a Loan Modification Agreement with Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company for an interest-only period commencing with the payment due June 1, 2020 and continuing through the payment due August 1, 2020. During the Interest-Only Period, the monthly installments due under the Note are modified to provide for payment of accrued interest only in the amount of $13,384.

On July 9, 2020, the Company entered into a loan modification agreement (the “Agreement”) with LoanCore Capital Credit REIT, LLC for the following notes payable: (i) MVP Raider Park Garage, LLC, (ii) MVP New Orleans Rampart, LLC, (iii) MVP Hawaii Marks Garage, LLC, (iv) MVP Milwaukee Wells, LLC, (v) MVP Indianapolis City Park, LLC, (vi) MVP Indianapolis WA Street, LLC. The Agreement defers a portion of the required monthly interest payments from June 2020 through November 2020 and reduces the LIBOR Floor from 1.95% to 0.50%, the Modified LIBOR Floor. The Company is also in preliminary discussions with LoanCore to exercise the one-year extension option in the loan agreement to extend the maturity of the $39.5 million loan due December 9, 2020; however, there can be no assurance this option will be exercised.  If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date and is unable to repay the loan at maturity, the lenders could foreclose upon the collateral securing the loan, in which case the Company would lose its significant amount of equity value in such collateral.
On July 31, 2020, the Company entered into three loan modification agreements (the “Agreements”) with American National Insurance Company (“ANICO”) for the following three loans: (i) Minneapolis City Parking, LLC, (ii) West 9th Properties II, LLC and (iii) MVP Fort Worth Taylor, LLC. The Company has entered into an Escrow Agreement with ANICO in which $950,000 in condemnation proceeds from the City of Minneapolis shall be used to pay the monthly principal and interest due each note, beginning with the payment due June 1, 2020, until the termination date. On August 6, 2020, $704,000 was wired to the ANICO escrow account. On October 23, 2020, the Company received the remaining condemnation proceeds of $596,000 from the city of Minneapolis and funded the remaining $246,000 due to the ANICO escrow account on October 26, 2020.
On August 4, 2020, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (Mabley Place Garage, LLC) entered into a loan modification agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee for the Benefit of the Registered Holders of JPMBB Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2015-C27 (the “Lender”). Under the terms of the agreement, the Lender will permit the Company to apply funds in an amount up to $43,000 per month from a replacement reserve account, to the extent there are sufficient funds available, to pay all or any portion of the monthly debt service payment amount then due for the May, June, July and August 2020 payment dates.

Distributions and Stock Dividends

On March 22, 2018 the Company suspended the payment of distributions on its common stock. There can be no assurance that cash distributions to the Company’s common stockholders will be resumed in the future. The actual amount and timing of distributions, if any, will be determined by the Company’s board of directors in its discretion and typically will depend on the amount of funds available for distribution, which is impacted by current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations and other factors. As a result, the Company’s distribution rate and payment frequency may vary from time to time. However, to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must make distributions equal to at least 90% of its REIT taxable income each year (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). In addition, the Company will be subject to corporate income tax to the extent the Company distributes less than 100% of the net taxable income including any net capital gain.


The Company is not currently and may not in the future generate sufficient cash flow from operations to fully fund distributions. The Company does not currently anticipate that it will be able to resume the payment of distributions.  However, if distributions do resume, all or a portion of the distributions may be paid from other sources, such as cash flows from equity offerings, financing activities, borrowings, or by way of waiver or deferral of fees. The Company has not established any limit on the extent to which distributions could be funded from these other sources. Accordingly, the amount of distributions paid may not reflect current cash flow from operations and distributions may include a return of capital, (rather than a return on capital). If the Company pays distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, the funds available to the Company for investments would be reduced and the share value may be diluted. The level of distributions will be determined by the board of directors and depend on several factors including current and projected liquidity requirements, anticipated operating cash flows and tax considerations, and other relevant items deemed applicable by the board of directors.

Common Stock

From inception through September 30, 2020, the Company had paid approximately $1.8 million in cash, issued 83,437 shares of its common stock as DRIP and issued 153,826 shares of its common stock in distributions to the Company’s stockholders. All of the cash distributions were paid from offering proceeds and constituted a return of capital. On March 22, 2018 the Company suspended payment of distributions and as such there are currently no distributions to invest in the DRIP.

The Company’s total distributions paid for the period presented, the sources of such distributions, the cash flows provided by (used in) operations and the number of shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Company’s DRIP are detailed below.

On March 24, 2020, the Board of Directors suspended all repurchases, even in the case of a shareholder’s death.

To date, all distributions were paid from offering proceeds and therefore represent a return of capital.

Preferred Series A Stock

The Company offered up to $50 million in shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A”), par value $0.0001 per share, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, in a Regulation D 506(c) private placement to accredited investors. In connection with the private placement, on October 27, 2016, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 50,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Company commenced the private placement of the Shares to accredited investors on November 1, 2016 and closed the offering on March 24, 2017. The Company raised approximately $2.5 million, net of offering costs, in the Series A private placements.

In addition, each investor in the Series A received, for every $1,000 in shares subscribed by such investor, 30 detachable warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange. The warrants’ exercise price is equal to 110% of the volume weighted average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock over a specified period as determined in accordance with the terms of the warrant; however, in no event shall the exercise price be less than $25 per share. As of September 30, 2020, there were 84,510 detachable warrants that may be exercised after the 90th day following the occurrence of a listing event. These warrants will expire five years from the 90th day after the occurrence of a listing event.

Preferred Series 1 Stock

On March 29, 2017, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland Articles Supplementary to the charter of the Company classifying and designating 97,000 shares of its authorized capital stock as shares of Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series 1”), par value $0.0001 per share. On April 7, 2017, the Company commenced the Regulation D 506(b) private placement of shares of Series 1, together with warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, to accredited investors.

Related-Party Transactions and Arrangements

The Company had entered into agreements with affiliates of its Sponsor, whereby the Company paid certain fees or reimbursements to the former Advisor or its affiliates prior to the Internalization. For additional information see Note E — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for a discussion of the various related party transactions, agreements and fees.

Inflation

The Company expects to include provisions in its tenant leases designed to protect the Company from the impact of inflation. These provisions will include reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements, or in some cases annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain allowance. Due to the generally long-term nature of these leases, annual rent increases may not be sufficient to cover inflation and rent may be below market.

Income Taxes

Commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2019, the Company believes it has been organized and conducted operations to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Code. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has entered into temporary lease amendments with some of its tenants. The income generated under these lease amendments do not constitute qualifying REIT income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests, and, as a result, the Company was not in compliance with the annual REIT income tests for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.  As discussed below, unless the Company chooses and is able to successfully implement an alternative operating strategy, it is highly likely that the Company will no longer qualify as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020.  A REIT is generally not subject to federal income tax on that portion of its REIT taxable income, which is distributed to its stockholders, provided that at least 90% of such taxable income is distributed and provided that certain other requirements are met. The Company’s REIT taxable income may substantially exceed or be less than the income calculated according to GAAP. In addition, the Company will be subject to corporate income tax to the extent that less than 100% of the net taxable income is distributed, including any net capital gain.

The Company uses a two-step approach to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolutions of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more likely than not of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions would be sustained upon examination; thus, the Company has not recorded any uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2020.

A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was provided since the Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will not realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets. A change in circumstances may cause the Company to change its judgment about whether deferred tax assets should be recorded, and further whether any such assets would more likely than not be realized. The Company would generally report any change in the valuation allowance through its income statement in the period in which such changes in circumstances occur. To the extent the Company qualifies as a REIT, it will generally not be subject to corporate level federal income taxes on its taxable income distributed to the Company’s stockholders and therefore may not realize any benefit from deferred tax assets arising during any period in which a valid REIT election was in effect. The Company currently intends to distribute at least 100% of its taxable income annually for all periods in which it is taxable as a REIT.

REIT Compliance

The Company elected to be treated as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the year ended December 31, 2017 and has continued to operate in a manner to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019. As long as the Company continues to maintain REIT status, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that the Company distributes to its stockholders.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has entered into temporary lease amendments with some of its tenants which generate income that does not constitute qualifying REIT income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests.  As a result, the Company was not in compliance with the annual REIT income tests for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.  The REIT income tests are measured on an annual basis, and we are evaluating options and strategies that may enable us to maintain our REIT status for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020 notwithstanding our inability to comply with these income tests in the past two quarters.  If implemented, these options and strategies, may have negative ancillary impacts on our business and operations, including potentially increasing our overall tax liability.  If we determine that the potential negative impacts of these options outweigh the benefits of potentially maintaining our REIT status, we may choose not to implement any of these options.  Moreover, even if we choose to implement any of these options, no assurances can be given that our implementation will be successful or that these options will in fact enable us to maintain our status as a REIT for our taxable year ending December 31, 2020.  Accordingly, unless we choose, and are able, to successfully implement an alternative operating strategy, it is highly likely that the Company will no longer qualify as a REIT for the year ending December 31, 2020.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT for our taxable year ended December 31, 2020, unless entitled to relief under specific statutory or administrative provisions, we would be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following 2020.  We believe that we may not be entitled to this statutory relief, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such relief.

Moreover, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would no longer be required to make distributions of our annual taxable income to our stockholders in order to maintain our REIT status and any distributions made to our stockholders will not be deductible by the Company.  As a result, the failure to qualify as a REIT could reduce the cash available for distribution by the Company to its stockholders. In addition, all distributions to stockholders would be taxable as regular corporate dividends to the extent of its current and accumulated earnings and profits.  Corporate stockholders may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.  In addition, non-corporate stockholders, including individuals, may be eligible for the preferential tax rates on qualified dividend income.  Non-corporate stockholders, including individuals, generally may deduct up to 20% of dividends from a REIT, other than capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified dividend income, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026 for purposes of determining their U.S. federal income tax (but not for purposes of the 3.8% Medicare tax),  subject to certain limitations.

Given projected losses in 2020, as well as the potential tax benefit of net operating loss carryforwards that the Company does not anticipate utilizing as long as it maintains its status as a REIT, the Company will continue to evaluate its current and deferred income tax situation (including the appropriateness of recording a deferred tax asset for net operating losses) throughout the 2020 year as there is additional clarity about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the Company’s ongoing operations, including whether the Company can maintain its REIT status for the 2020 year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Series A Preferred Stock

Each investor in the Series A received, for every $1,000 in shares subscribed by such investor, detachable warrants to purchase 30 shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange. The warrants’ exercise price is equal to 110% of the volume weighted average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock over a specified period as determined in accordance with the terms of the warrant; however, in no event shall the exercise price be less than $25 per share. As of September 30, 2020, there were detachable warrants that may be exercised for 84,510 shares of the Company’s common stock after the 90th day following the occurrence of a listing event. These potential warrants will expire five years from the 90th day after the occurrence of a listing event. If all the potential warrants outstanding at September 30, 2020 became exercisable because of a listing event and were exercised at the minimum price of $25 per share, the Company would issue an additional 84,510 shares of common stock and would receive gross proceeds of approximately $2.1 million.

On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series A, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series A.

On March 24, 2020, the Board of Directors suspended all repurchases, even in the case of a shareholder’s death.

For additional information see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “—Preferred Series A Stock” above and Note O — Preferred Stock and Warrants in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Series 1 Preferred Stock

Each investor in the Series 1 received, for every $1,000 in shares subscribed by such investor, detachable warrants to purchase 35 shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange. The warrants’ exercise price is equal to 110% of the volume weighted average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock over a specified period as determined in accordance with the terms of the warrant; however, in no event shall the exercise price be less than $25 per share. As of September 30, 2020, there were detachable warrants that may be exercised for approximately 1,382,675 shares of the Company’s common stock after the 90th day following the occurrence of a listing event. These potential warrants will expire five years from the 90th day after the occurrence of a listing event. If all the potential warrants outstanding at September 30, 2020 became exercisable because of a listing event and were exercised at the minimum price of $25 per share, the Company would issue an additional 1,382,675 shares of common stock and would receive gross proceeds of approximately $34.6 million.

On March 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series 1, however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series 1.

On March 24, 2020, the Board of Directors suspended all repurchases, even in the case of a shareholder’s death.

For additional information see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “—Preferred Series A Stock” above and Note O — Preferred Stock and Warrants in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s accounting policies have been established in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If management’s judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions is different, it is possible that different accounting policies will be applied, or different amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses will be recorded, resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements or different amounts reported in the financial statements.

Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of the Company’s results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management considers to be most critical once the Company commences significant operations. These policies require complex judgment in their application or estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Real Estate Investments

Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements, five years for fixtures and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.

The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of the Company’s properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to record on an annual basis with respect to the Company’s investments in real estate. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s net income because if the Company were to shorten the expected useful lives of the Company’s investments in real estate, the Company would depreciate these investments over fewer years, resulting in more depreciation expense and lower net income on an annual basis.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Estimates of value are made using customary methods, including data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Amounts allocated to land, land improvements, buildings and fixtures are based on cost segregation studies performed by independent third parties or on the Company’s analysis of comparable properties in the Company’s portfolio. Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships, as applicable.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to in-place leases is primarily the difference between the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and the property valued as if vacant. Factors considered by the Company in its analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company will include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up period. Estimates of costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses are also utilized. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease intangibles are amortized as a decrease to rental income over the remaining term of the lease. The capitalized below-market lease values will be amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining term and any fixed rate renewal periods provided within the respective leases. In determining the amortization period for below-market lease intangibles, the Company initially will consider, and periodically evaluate on a quarterly basis, the likelihood that a lessee will execute the renewal option. The likelihood that a lessee will execute the renewal option is determined by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors.


The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the initial term of the respective leases. The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event, does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company will utilize several sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company will also consider information obtained about each property as a result of the pre-acquisition due diligence, as well as subsequent marketing and leasing activities, in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.

Deferred Costs

Deferred costs may consist of deferred financing costs, deferred offering costs and deferred leasing costs. Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. These costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

As of the date of this filing, 48,318 shares have been redeemed of which 33,232 shares were hardship repurchases.
