BRT APARTMENTS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 20172018
Note 1 – Organization and Background
BRT Apartments Corp. (the "Company"), a Maryland corporation, is the successor to BRT Realty Trust, a Massachusetts business trust, pursuant to the conversion of BRT Realty Trust into BRT Apartments Corp. on March 18, 2017.
The Company owns, operates and develops multi‑family properties and owns and operates other assets, including real estate and a real estate loan. BRTproperties. The Company conducts its operations to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes.
Generally, the multi‑familymulti-family properties are acquired with joint venture partners in transactions in which the Company contributes 80%a significant portion of the equity. At March 31, 2017,2018, the Company owns: (a) 3234 multi-family properties with 8,8059,632 units (including 445 units at two properties engaged in lease-up activities and 402 units at a property under development), located in 11 states (including 271 units at a property in the lease up stage) with a net bookcarrying value of $770,555,000;$982,801,000; and (b) interests in twothree unconsolidated multi-family joint ventures with a net bookcarrying value of $14,257,000.
The Company also owns and operates various other real estate assets. At March 31, 2017, the net book value of these other real estate assets was $16,459,000, including a real estate loan of $5,900,000.$20,637,000.
Note 2 – Basis of Preparation
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017,2018, and for the three and six months ended March 31, 20172018 and 2016,2017, reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 20172018 and 2016,2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2016,2017, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for complete financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its majority owned or controlled real estate entities and its interests in variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. Material inter-companyintercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company’s consolidated joint ventures that own multi‑family properties were determined to be VIEs because the voting rights of some equity investors in the applicable joint venture entity are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and their right to receive the expected residual returns. In addition, substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately fewer voting rights. It was determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of these joint ventures because it has a controlling interest in that it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and it has the obligation to absorb losses of the entity and the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The joint ventureventures that owns a propertyown properties in Ocoee, FL, Lawrenceville, GA, Dallas, TX wasand St. Louis, MO were determined not to be a VIEVIEs but isare consolidated because the Company has substantive participatingcontrolling rights in the entity owning the property.such entities.
With respect to its unconsolidated joint ventures, as (i) the Company is primarily the managing member but does not exercise substantial operating control over these entities or the Company is not the managing member and (ii) such entities are not VIEs, the Company has determined that such joint ventures should be accounted for under the equity method of accounting for financial statement purposes.
The distributions to each joint venture partner are determined pursuant to the applicable operating agreement and may not be pro-rata to the percentage equity interest each partner has in the applicable venture.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, the Company reclassified approximately $1,162,000 and $2,083,000 of tenant utility reimbursements from real estate operating expenses to rental and other revenues from real estate properties to conform with the current period presentation. This reclassification increased total revenues and expenses by $1,162,000 and $2,083,000 respectively, and had no effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Substantially all of the Company's assets are comprised of multi- family real estate assets generally leased to tenants on a one year basis. Therefore, the Company aggregates real estate assets for reporting purposes and operates in one reportable segment.

Note 1312 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial Instruments Not MeasuredCarried at Fair Value
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable (included in other assets), accounts payable and accrued liabilities: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for these instruments approximate their fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.
Junior subordinated notes: At March 31, 20172018 and September 30, 20162017, the estimated fair value of the notes is lower than their carrying value by approximately $16,237,000$12,865,000 and $16,549,000$15,705,000 based on a market interest rate of 6.63%7.18% and 6.37%, respectively.
Mortgages payable: At March 31, 2017,2018, the estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is lower than their carrying value by approximately $12,704,000$23,145,000 assuming market interest rates between 3.79%3.99% and 4.99%5.66% and at September 30, 2016,2017, the estimated fair value of the Company's mortgages payable was greaterlower than their carrying value by approximately $10,629,000$11,400,000 assuming market interest rates between 3.05%3.78% and 4.25%5.02%. Market interest rates were determined using rates which the Company believes reflects institutional lender yield requirements.requirements at the balance sheet dates.
Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value assumptions.
Financial Instruments MeasuredCarried at Fair Value
The Company’s fair value measurements are based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, there is a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions. Level 1 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets, Level 2 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, on quoted prices in less active or inactive markets, or on other “observable” market inputs, and Level 3 assets/liabilities are valued based significantly on “unobservable” market inputs. The Company does not currently own any financial instruments that are classified as Level 3. Set forth below is information regarding the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 20172018 (dollars in thousands):

Derivative financial instruments: Fair values are approximated using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and implied volatilities. At March 31, 2017,2018, these derivatives are included in other assets and other accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with them utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of March 31, 2017,2018, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative position and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivatives valuation is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Note 1413 – Derivative Financial Instruments
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company's objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives, designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges, is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (income) lossAccumulated Other Comprehensive Income on our consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt.
As of March 31, 2017,2018, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk (dollars in thousands):

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
The agreement between the Company and its derivative counterparties provides that if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of the derivative in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest, but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreement, was $16,000. As of March 31, 2017, the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If the Company had been in breach of these agreements at March 31, 2017, it could have been required to settle its obligations thereunder at its termination value of $16,000.
Note 1514 – New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist companies and other reporting organizations with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or business combinations. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company elected early adoption effective for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. The Company's net income was favorably impacted as a result of the capitalization of acquisition costs - in prior periods, property acquisition costs were expensed during the period incurred. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2017, capitalized acquisition costs were $557,000 and $1,200,000, respectively, without giving effect to non-controlling interests.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which requires all excess tax benefits or deficiencies to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. In addition, excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows. Application of the standard is required for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the current consolidation guidance, including introducing a separate consolidation analysis specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities. Under this analysis, limited partnerships and other similar entities will be considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the quarter December 31, 2016 and its adoption did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), prescribes a single, common revenue standards which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP.GAAP, including most industry-specific requirements. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 definesoutlines a five step processmodel to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods thereafter,therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting
period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative
effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company isWe are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard during the year ending September 30, 2019.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the current accounting for leases and while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (i) requires lessees to record a right of use asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in 2018.a manner similar to current accounting (ii) eliminates most real estate specific lease provisions, and (iii) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. We are required to adopt ASU 2016-02 using the modified retrospective approach which requires us to record leases existing as of or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements under the new lease standard. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. We believe our adoption of the new leasing standard will result in an immaterial increase in the assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, with no material impact to our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force), which provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues and how to reduce diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The effective date of the standard will be fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact, if any, on the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU Update No. 2016-018, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force). The new standard requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the combined total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash equivalents. Entities will also be required to reconcile such total to amounts on the balance sheet and disclose relevant information about the nature of the restrictions on the basis of their individual facts and circumstances. The effective date of the standard will be fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted.

Overview
General
We are an internally managed real estate investment trust, also known as a REIT, that is primarily focused on the ownership, operation and development of multi‑family properties. These activities are conducted primarily conducted through joint ventures in which we typically have an 80% interest in the entity owning the property.a substantial ownership position. At March 31, 2017,2018, we (i) own 32 multi‑family34 multi-family properties located in 11 states with an aggregate of 8,8059,632 units (including 271445 units at two properties engaged in lease up activities (i.e., Factory at Garco Park and Vanguard Heights) and 402 units at a property in lease up stage)under development (i.e. At March 31, 2017, the net book, Bells Bluff)) with a carrying value of the$982.8 million and (ii) have ownership interests, through unconsolidated entities, in three multi-family assets was $770.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 the average occupancy at our stabilized properties was 93.3%.
We also own and operate various other real estate assets. At March 31, 2017, the net bookwith a carrying value of these other real estate assets is $16.5 million, including a real estate loan$20.6 million. Most of $5.9 million.our properties are located in the southeast United States and Texas.
As used herein, the term "same store properties" refers to operating properties that were owned for the entirety of the periods being presented and excludes properties that were in development or lease up during such periods or not yet stabilized.
Conversionperiods. Retreat at Cinco Ranch Katy, Texas, has been excluded from same store properties due to a Maryland Corporationthe damage it sustained from Hurricane Harvey. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, there were 22 same store properties and for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, there were 21 same store properties.
On March 18,
Hurricane Harvey
In August 2017, we completed the conversion from a Massachusetts business trustHurricane Harvey caused significant damage to a Maryland corporation. The conversion had no impact on the business or managementour 268-unit Retreat at Cinco Ranch, Katy, Texas property. Among other things, 96 of our companyground floor units were rendered uninhabitable and has been treated as a tax-free exchange under relevant Internal Revenue Service regulations. Sharesresult of beneficial interest were automatically convertedthe extensive damage to sharesthe common areas of the property (i.e., pool and clubhouse), we offered, rent concessions and other accommodations to induce tenancies for the second and third floor units to reside at the property. As a result of the damage caused by the hurricane, we reduced the carrying value of this property by $3.5 million and, because we believed it was probable that we would recover such sum from our insurance coverage, we recognized $3.5 million in insurance recoveries. Through March 31, 2018, we received approximately $7.4 million (including $686,000 in rental income as described below) in insurance recoveries related to the loss, of which $3.2 million is recorded as a gain on insurance recovery in the three and six months ended March 31, 2018.
Our business interruption insurance is covering our losses in rental income with respect to the ground floor units until such units are repaired and accordingly, we continue to accrue revenues to be generated from such units. Through March 31, 2018 we received $686,000 to cover lost rental income, of which $294,000 and $588,000 is recorded as rental income in the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. We are also seeking to recover from our insurance carriers the cost of rent concessions and other accommodations we previously offered tenants and prospective tenants, which totaled approximately $145,000. As of May 1, 2018, certain common areas have been restored and nine ground floor units have been restored and leased. We anticipate this property will be substantially repaired by September 2018. We continue to negotiate with our insurance carriers to ensure that we are fully compensated for the damages sustained at Retreat at Cinco Ranch as a result of Hurricane Harvey.
Status of Lease Up Activities and Development Project
At March 31, 2018, the occupancy rate at Factory at Garco Park and Vanguard Heights, which are in engaged in lease up activities, was 85.2% and 88.5%, respectively.
We anticipate that the buildings at our Bells Bluff development property will be completed from time to time from the end of calendar year 2018 through the end of calendar year 2019.

$452,000 due to the decrease in the interest rate paid on our junior subordinated debt.
Advisor’s fees, related party. The 2016 period reflects the amounts paid during the three months ended December 31, 2015, at which time the advisory agreement terminated.
Property acquisition costs. Due to a change in accounting guidance that was adopted as of October 1, 2016, these costs are now capitalized as a part of the basis of the acquired property. During the six months ended March 31, 2017, we capitalized $1.2 million of such costs.
General and administrative. Approximately $498,000 of the increase is due of the inclusion of the fees for services previously provided pursuant to the advisory agreement, approximately $302,000 is due to increased compensation expense (including $292,000 related to the non-cash amortization of restricted stock and restricted stock unit expense and $160,000 due to increased salaries) and $190,000 of various other expenses, including expenses related to the conversion.

Other Income and Expenses
Gain on sale of real estate. During the six months ended March 31, 2018, we sold three multi-family properties and one cooperative apartment unit for an aggregate sales price of $171.0 million and recognized an aggregate gain of $64.5 million, of which $27.4 million was allocated to the non-controlling partners. During the six months ended March 31, 2017, we sold four multi familymulti-family properties and a cooperative apartment unit for an aggregate sales price of $130.7 million and recognized an aggregate gain of $35.8 million, of which $17.1 million was allocated to the non-controlling interests.

In the six months ended March 31, 2018, we incurred $850,000 of mortgage prepayment charges in connection with the sale of The Fountain Apartments and Waverly Place Apartments . In the six months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, we incurred a $799,000 and $2.7 million of mortgage prepayment charges respectively, in connection with property sales.the sale of Spring Valley Apartments, Panama City, FL.

The six months ended March 31, 2017 reflects state taxes paid as a result of income recognized at the state level, primarily from gains on property sales. Loss carry- forwards that are available at the federal level differ from and may not be available at the individual state level.
Income from discontinued operations. In February 2016, we sold our interest in the Newark Joint Venture and reclassified the operations of the venture to discontinued operations for the six months ended March 31, 2016.
Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest. The amount is primarily due to the allocation to our joint venture partners of their share of the gain on sale of four multi-family properties in the six months ended March 31, 2017 and two multi-family properties in the corresponding period in the prior year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require funds to pay operating expenses and debt service obligations, acquire properties, repay borrowingsmake capital improvements and pay operating expenses.dividends. Generally, our primary sources of capital and liquidity are the operations of, and distributions from, our multi-family properties, our available cash (including restricted cash), mortgage debt financing and our share of the net proceeds from the sale of multi-family properties. As a result of the at-the-market equity offering program that commenced January 11, 2018, we may, in the future, generate funds from the sale of our common stock. At March 31, 20172018, and May 1, 2017,2018, our available cash, excluding restricted cash of $6.6$7.7 million and $7.9 million respectively, intended for capital improvements at 1517 multi-family properties, is approximately $43.1$31.0 million and $ 34.4$20.4 million, respectively.
We anticipate that operating expenses and debt service payable through 20182019 will be funded from the cash generated from operations of theseour properties and that the debt service (including principal payments) payable in 2018 and 2019 will be funded from the cash generated from operations of the properties, the refinancing of mortgages, our share of the proceeds from the sale of our properties and from sales of our common stock, if needed, supplemental financings.any.
The mortgage debt with respect to the multi-family properties generally is non-recourse to us and our subsidiary holding our interest in the applicable joint venture. Our ability to acquire additional multi-family properties is limited by our available cash and the availability of mortgage debt.
We anticipate that the construction and other costs associated with the N. Charleston, SC402-unit Bells Bluff development project will be funded by capital previously contributed by us and our joint venture partner and us and in-place construction financing of up to $30.3$47.4 million. As of March 31, 2017, $25.42018, there have been no draws against this construction loan.
We intend to refinance the adjustable rate mortgages in aggregate principal amount of $56.3 million at our two properties that are currently in lease up (Factory at Garco Park - N. Charleston, SC and Vanguard Heights, Creve Coeur, MO) with longer term fixed-rate financing once these properties has been drawn against the project.stabilized; however, no assurance can be given that these properties will ever be stabilized, that financing will be available at such time or, if available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. These loans mature (after giving effect to extension options) in October 2020 and April 2019, respectively.
Statements of Cash Flows
As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $43.1 million and $34.7 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents were generated from the following activities (dollars in thousands): |
| | | | | | | |

| | 15,556 |
|
Cash and cash equivalents at end of year | $ | 43,147 |
| | $ | 34,792 |
|
The increase in cash flow provided by operating activities in 2017 is due to increased total revenues at our operating properties.
The increase in cash flow provided by investing activities in 2017 is due primarily to the increase in proceeds from property sales, the paydown of the loan to the Newark Joint Venture, and a reduction in the properties purchased.
The decrease in cash flow used in financing activities in 2017 is due primarily to a reduced amount of mortgages obtained due to fewer purchases in the current six months.
Cash Distribution Policy
We haveare taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code”. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute to our stockholders within the time frames prescribed by the Code at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income. Management currently intends to maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not paid cash dividends since 2010. At December 31, 2016,be subject to corporate Federal income tax on taxable income we distribute to stockholders in accordance with the Code. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to Federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify for Federal taxation as a REIT, we are subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and to Federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income,(i.e., taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed by the Code).
We estimate that our net operating loss carry-forward is approximatelylosses at December 31, 2017 range from $15 million to $18 million. Accordingly,$20 million; therefore, we are not currently required by the Internal Revenue Code provisions relating to REITs to pay a dividendcash dividends to maintain our REIT status.status as a REIT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each of October 5, 2017 and January 5, 2018, we paid a cash dividend of $0.18 per share, and on April 6, 2018, we paid a cash dividend of $0.20 per share. Though we currently intend to continue to pay cash dividends on a quarterly basis, we cannot provide any assurance that we will do so.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
Funds from Operations; Adjusted Funds from Operations
We disclose below funds from operations (“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) because we believe that such metrics are a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.
We compute FFO in accordance with the “White Paper on Funds From Operations” issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write‑downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will beare calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, we do not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities or depreciation of non‑non- real estate assets.We compute AFFO by deducting from FFO our straight-line rent accruals, and deferrals, amortizationloss on extinguishment of debt, restricted stock compensation and amortization ofrestricted stock unit expense, deferred financing costs.mortgage costs and gain on insurance recovery. Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.
We believe that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.
FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP.
Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
All of our mortgage debt is fixed rate, other than fourseven mortgages, three of which are subject to interest rate swap agreements.agreements and one which is subject to an interest rate cap. With respect to the remaining three variable rate mortgage,mortgages, an increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would reduce annual net income by $254,000$589,000 and a decrease of 100 basis points would increase annual net income by $236,000.$589,000.
As of March 31, 2017,2018, we had three interest rate swap agreements outstanding.outstanding and one interest rate cap. The fair value of our interest rate swapsthese derivative instruments is dependent upon existing market interest rates and swap spreads, which change over time. At March 31, 2017,2018, if there had been (i) an increase of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of these derivative instruments and the interest rate swaps and net unrealized gain on the derivative instrumentsthereon would have increased by approximately $5.5$3.0 million and (ii) if there had been a decrease of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of these derivatives and the interest rate swaps and net unrealized gain on derivative instrumentthereon would have decreased by approximately $1.8$3.2 million. These changes would not have any impact on our net income or cash.
Our junior subordinated notes bear interest at the rate of three month LIBOR plus 200 basis points. At March 31, 2018, the interest rate on these notes was 3.77%. A 100 basis point increase in the rate would increase our related interest expense by approximately $374,000 annually and a 100 basis point decrease in the rate would decrease our related interest expense by $422,000$374,000 annually.
As of March 31, 2017,2018, based on the number of residential units in each state, 31%30% of our properties are located in Texas, 12%16% in Georgia, 11% in Florida, 11%8% in Georgia, 9% in Alabama, 9%Missouri, 8% in Mississippi, 8%7% in Tennessee, 7% in South Carolina and the remaining 20%13% in fivefour other states andstates; we are therefore subject to risks associated with the economies in these areas.
