(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by AMREP Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in two business segments: land development and homebuilding. The Company has no foreign sales. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to reflect a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what may occur in future periods. Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to 2021 and 2020 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2021 and 2020 and all references to the second quarter and first six months of 2021 and 2020 mean the fiscal three month and six month periods ended October 31, 2020 and 2019.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on July 27, 2020 (the “2020 Form 10-K”). Certain 2020 balances in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on net loss or shareholders’ equity.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the 2020 Form 10-K, except for those adopted as described below.

Revenue Recognition

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant for companies with defined benefit retirement plans. ASU 2018-14 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-14 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which removes certain exceptions for companies related to tax allocations and simplifies when companies recognize deferred tax liabilities in an interim period. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on the accounting policies used and disclosed in the 2020 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and included as part of the 2020 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The preparation of those consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts or results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies, assumptions and estimates are described in Item 7 of Part II of the 2020 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in these critical accounting policies.

The significant accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2020 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. Information concerning the Company’s implementation and the impact of recent accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board is included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2020 Form 10-K and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The Company did not adopt any accounting policy in the six months ended October 31, 2020 that had a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the following accounting policies effective May 1, 2020:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended October 31, 2020, the Company recorded net income of $798,000, or $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $2,169,000, or $0.27 per share, for the three months ended October 31, 2019. For the six months ended October 31, 2020, the Company recorded net income of $1,391,000, or $0.17 per share, compared to a net loss of $2,365,000, or $0.29 per share, for the six months ended October 31, 2019.

Cost of Revenues . The following presents information on cost of revenues for the Company’s operations (dollars in thousands):

General and Administrative Expenses . The following presents select information on general and administrative expenses for the Company’s operations (dollars in thousands):

Interest (expense) income, net decreased to $(12,000) and $(6,000) for the three and six months ended October 31, 2020 from $141,000 and $265,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2019, primarily due to a reduction in interest rates on cash balances and the elimination of the deferred purchase price and interest accrual related thereto with respect to the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business (refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2020 Form 10-K for detail regarding the non-cash impairment charge of the deferred purchase price related to the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business), partially offset by a reduction in interest expense.

The Company had a provision for income taxes of $319,000 and $465,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2020 compared to a benefit for income taxes of $622,000 and $756,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2019. This change is caused by the three and six months ended October 31, 2020 reporting income in both periods, compared to the three and six months ended October 31, 2019 reporting losses in both periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s primary sources of funding for working capital requirements are cash flow from operations, bank financing for specific real estate projects and existing cash balances. The Company’s liquidity is affected by many factors, including some that are based on normal operations and some that are related to the real estate industry and the economy generally. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s liquidity and capital resources as reflected in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2020 Form 10-K.

Operating Activities

Real estate inventory increased from $53,449,000 at April 30, 2020 to $53,925,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to increased land development activity, the acquisition of land and homebuilding construction, offset in part by real estate land sales. Investment assets, net increased from $18,644,000 at April 30, 2020 to $18,970,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to capitalization of costs related to the construction of a single tenant retail building, offset in part by depreciation. Other assets increased from $934,000 at April 30, 2020 to $1,544,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to an increase in prepaid expenses.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $3,125,000 at April 30, 2020 to $4,700,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to an increase in builders’ deposits and land development activity in New Mexico. Accrued pension costs decreased from $5,014,000 at April 30, 2020 to $3,195,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to a voluntary contribution of $1,847,000 to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan.

Financing Activities

Notes payable, net increased from $3,890,000 at April 30, 2020 to $5,803,000 at October 31, 2020, primarily due to additional borrowings to fund land development activities, partially offset by repayments made on outstanding borrowings.

Many of the factors that will determine the Company’s future results are beyond the ability of management to control or predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding (1) the Company’s expected liquidity sources, (2) the availability of bank financing for projects, (3) the utilization of existing bank financing, (4) the timing of development of land held as investment assets, (5) the backlog of homes under contract and the dollar amount of expected sales revenue when such homes are closed, (6) the offering of sales incentives to home buyers, (7) the effect of recent accounting pronouncements, (8) the timing of recognizing unrecognized compensation expense related to shares of common stock issued under the AMREP Corporation 2016 Equity Compensation Plan, (9) the future issuance of deferred common share units to directors of the Company, (10) the future business conditions that may be experienced by the Company and (11) the forgiveness of any amounts due under the loan issued pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance and Accounting, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. As a result of such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance and Accounting have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of October 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance and Accounting, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in the Company’s system of internal control over “financial reporting” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

(1)            In September 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Company to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company from time to time pursuant to a share repurchase program, subject to the total expenditure for the purchase of shares under the share repurchase program not exceeding $5,000,000, exclusive of any fees, commissions and other expenses related to such repurchases. As of October 31, 2020, the share repurchase program had 324,384 shares that may yet be purchased under the program, subject to the total expenditure for the purchase of such shares not exceeding an additional $824,693, exclusive of any fees, commissions and other expenses related to such repurchases. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may have repurchased its common stock from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations.

The share repurchase program did not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may have been suspended, modified or terminated at any time without prior notice.
