We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We have determined that we are a primary beneficiary of the VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impacts its economic performance, and (ii) the obligations to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider qualitative and quantitative factors, including ownership interest, management representation, ability to control decision and other contractual rights.

We account for entities in which we have less than a controlling financial interest or entities where we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, we include our share of the net earnings or losses of these entities in our results of operations.

Newly Issued Accounting Standards

In October 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. This standard is intended to improve the accounting when considering indirect interests held through related parties under common control for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. The effective date of the amendments is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of the standard on January 1, 2020, did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The standard provides guidance, optional expedients and exceptions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The standard was effective upon issuance and can be applied through December 31, 2022. We have mortgage notes payable with interest rates that reference LIBOR, and therefore, we will adopt this standard when LIBOR is discontinued.

On April 10, 2020, the FASB issued a Staff Q&A (“Q&A”) related to the application of the lease guidance in ASC 842 for the accounting impact of lease concessions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Q&A allows an entity to make an election to account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 as though enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed. As a result of this election, an entity will not have to analyze each lease to determine whether enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the lease and can elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance in ASC 842, as long as the concessions do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee. Our adoption of the guidance of the Q&A did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

5.    Operating Segments
Our segments are based on the internal reporting that we review for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in two2 reportable segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily apartment communitiesproperties and (ii) the acquisition, ownership and management of commercial real estate properties. The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses, advisory fees, interest income and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.

9.Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

(“UHF”) are funded from surplus cash flow from operations, sale or refinancing of the financialunderlying properties and are cross collateralized to the extent that any surplus cash available from any of the properties underlying the notes.

9.    Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
On November 19, 2018, we formed the VAA joint venture with the Macquarie Group (“Macquarie”). In connection with the formation of VAA, we sold a 50% ownership interest in certain multifamily properties to Macquarie for a $236,800 cash payment, resulting in a gain on sale of assets of $154,100. In connection with the formation of VAA, 10 out of the 51 properties were subject to an earn-out provision ("Earn Out") that provides for a remeasurement of value after a two-year period following the completion of construction. Upon the formation of VAA, we recorded a liability ("Earn Out Obligation") for the $10,000 advance on the Earn Out that we received from Macquarie.
Upon receipt of funds, both parties transferred their respective ownership interests in the multifamily properties to VAA in exchange for a 50% voting interest and a 49% profit participation interest ("Class A interest") in VAA and a note payable (“Mezzanine Loan”) in accordance with the terms of a contribution agreement (the “Contribution”). Upon completion of the Contribution, VAA owned and controlled 51 multifamily properties. VAA assumed all liabilities of those properties, including mortgage debt insured by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”).
Concurrent with the formation of the joint venture, VAA issued a Class B interest with a 2% profits participation interest and no voting rights to Daniel J. Moos, our former President and Chief Executive Officer (“Class B Member”). The Class B Member serves as the manager of VAA.
Interest on the Mezzanine loan is limited to cash generated from the properties and matures concurrently with the termination of VAA. Accordingly, we account for our interest in the Mezzanine Loan as an addition to our equity interest in VAA and include interest income on the Mezzanine loan in income from unconsolidated joint venture.
On March 30, 2021, we sold a 50% ownership interest in Overlook at Allensville Phase II, a 144 unit multifamily property in Sevierville, Tennessee to Macquarie for $2,551 resulting in gain on sale of $1,417. Concurrent with the sale, we each contributed our 50% ownership interests in Overlook at Allensville Phase II into VAA.
On July 13, 2021, we received the arbitration result of a dispute regarding the measurement of the Earn Out Obligation. Our position and resultsclaims were declined, and the position of operationsMacquarie was fully accepted. As a result, we are required to pay approximately $39,600 to Macquarie to satisfy the Earn Out Obligation, and therefore, recorded a charge of $29,600 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (See Note 7 – Real Estate Activity).
In accordance with the the joint venture operating agreement, the Earn Out Obligation will be paid from our unconsolidated joint ventures:

We continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and our property portfolio. While we did not incur significant disruptions during the threenine months ended September 30, 20202021 from the COVID-19 pandemic, weour commercial properties have experienced a decline in occupancy. We believe this decline to be temporary and do not expect a significant decrease in rental revenue.
We are unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties. These uncertainties include the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. The pandemic is having a significantcontinues to have an impact on the U.S. economy and on the local markets in which our properties are located. Nearly every industry has been impacted directly or indirectly, and the commercial real estate market has come under pressure due to numerous factors, including preventative measures taken by local, state and federal authorities to alleviate the public health crisis such as mandatory business closures, quarantines, and restrictions on travel and “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders.

The following provides an overview of the impact of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We have collected approximately 96% of our third quarter rents, comprised of approximately 95% from multi-family tenants and 97% from office tenants.
We have not granted any abatements or granted any significant deferments of contractual rents.
Occupancy remains stable at 91% at September 30, 2020 and 2019.
We continue to obtain positive leasing spreads for new leases and renewals at properties.
Our ground up development work continues unabated and thus far we have not experienced any work stoppages.

In addition, we believe that our financing activities will not be significantly impacted by COVID-19, as most of our mortgage notes payable are secured by HUD guarantees which have long-term maturities.

The future impact of COVID-19 on our business and financial activities will depend on future developments, which at this stage are unpredictable considering the fluctuations of COVID-19 outbreaks and the resulting changes in the markets.

Other sections of this report may also include suggested factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time-to-time and it is not possible for management to predict all such matters; nor can we assess the impact of all such matters on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as prediction of actual results. Investors should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and to other materials we may furnish to the public from time to time through Forms 8-K or otherwise as we file them with the SEC.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“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.

Some of these estimates and assumptions include judgments on revenue recognition, estimates for common area maintenance and real estate tax accruals, provisions for uncollectible accounts, impairment of long-lived assets, the allocation of purchase price between tangible and intangible assets, capitalization of costs and fair value measurements. Our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our notes to the consolidated financial statements.statements in the Annual Report. However, the following policies are deemed to be critical.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We apply the guidance in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, to the valuation of real estate assets. These provisions define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a transaction between market participants at the measurement date, establish a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used in developing fair value estimates and require disclosure of fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3 measurements), such as the reporting entity’s own data.


22

Table of Contents
The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date and includes three levels defined as follows:

Level 1 –Unadjusted quoted prices for identical and unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 –Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 –Unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical and unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Related Parties

We apply ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”, to evaluate business relationships. Related parties are persons or entities who have one or more of the following characteristics, which include entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, trust for the benefit of persons including principal owners of the entities and members of their immediate families, management personnel of the entity and members of their immediate families and other parties with which the entity may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the decision making of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing our own separate interests, or affiliates of the entity.

Results of Operations

Many of the variations in the results of operations, discussed below, occurred because of the transactions affecting our properties described above, including those related to the Lease-Up Properties and the Disposition Properties (each as defined below).
For purposes of the discussion below, we define "Same Properties" as those properties that are substantially leased-up and in operation for the entirety of both periods of the comparison. Non-Same Properties for comparison purposes include those properties that have been recently constructed or leased-up (“Lease-up Properties”) and properties that have been disposed of ("Disposition Properties"). A developed property is considered leased-up, when it achieves occupancy of 80% or more.We move a property in and out of Same Properties based on whether the property is substantially leased-up and in operation for the entirety of both periods of the comparison. Accordingly, the Same Properties consist of all properties, excluding the Lease-up Properties and the Disposition Properties for the periods of comparison.
For the comparison of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Lease-up Properties are Forest Grove, Parc at Denham Springs Phase II and Sugar Mill Phase III; and the Disposition Properties are Bridge View Plaza, Farnham Park, Villager, Overlook at Allensville Phase II, and 600 Las Colinas.

For 2019, we sold 16.2 acres of land for $7.0 million, resulting in a gain of $5.1 million.

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

For 2020, we reported a:

Our $10.1 million increase in net income attributable to common shares of $8.1 million or $0.93 per diluted share, compared to a net loss applicable to common shares of $19.7 million or $2.26 per diluted share for 2019.

Rental revenues were $34.5 million for 2020, compared to $34.4 million for 2019. For 2020, rental revenues consisted of $23.5 million and $11.0 million from our commercial and multifamily segments, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal liquidity needs are:

fund normal recurring expenses;
meet debt service and principal repayment obligations including balloon payments on maturing debt;
fund capital expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing costs;
fund development costs not covered under construction loans; and
fund possible property acquisitions.

Our principal sources of cash have been, and will continue to be:

property operations;
proceeds from land and income-producing property sales;
collection of mortgage notes receivable;
collection of receivables from related party companies;
refinancing of existing debt; and
additional borrowing, including mortgage notes, mezzanine financing and lines of credit.

We draw on multiple financing sourcesbe, property operations; proceeds from land and income-producing property sales; collection of notes receivable; refinancing of existing mortgage notes payable; and additional borrowings, including mortgage notes and bonds payable, and lines of credit.

Our principal liquidity needs are to fund our long-termnormal recurring expenses; meet debt service and principal repayment obligations including balloon payments on maturing debt; fund capital needs. expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing costs; fund development costs not covered under construction loans; and fund possible property acquisitions.
We generally fund our development projects with construction loans. Management anticipatesanticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021, along with cash that will be generated in the remainder of 2021 from property operations may notnotes and interest receivables, will be sufficient to meet all of our cash requirements. Management intendsWe intend to selectively sell land and income-producing assets, refinance or extend real estate debt and seek additional borrowingborrowings secured by real estate to meet our liquidity requirements. Although the pasthistory cannot predict the future, historically, management haswe have been successful at refinancing and extending a portion of our current maturity obligations and selling assets as necessary to meet current obligations.

Cash Flow Summary

The following summary discussion of our cash flows is based on the consolidated statements of cash flows as presented in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements”our consolidated financial statements, and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changes in our cash flow:

  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities $(19,456) $19,457  $(38,913)

Our primary use of cashflows for operations is daily operating costs, general and administrative expenses, advisory fees, and land holding costs. Our primary source ofthe periods presented below (dollars in thousands):

The increase in cash from operating activities is from rental income on properties. In addition, we have aprimarily due to the $7.9 million decrease in related party accountreceivables.
The increase in which excess cash is transferred to or from.

Our primary cash outlays forprovided by investing activities are for constructionis primarily due to a $72.0 million increase in proceeds from sale of assets and development, acquisitiona decrease of land$11.8 million in originations and income-producing properties, and capital improvements to existing properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we advanced $15.7 millionadvances on various notes receivable, purchased real estate for development for $2.7 million, and invested approximately $12.5 million for the development and renovation of real estate. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we advanced $7.3 million on various notes receivable, purchased real estate for development for $3.4 million, and invested approximately $31.3 million for the development and renovation of real estate.


Our primary sources ofreceivable. The increase in cash from investing activities are from the proceeds on sale of assets is primarily due the sale of land600 Las Colinas in 2021 (See "Acquisitions and income-producing properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received sales proceeds of $31.8 million from the sale of real estate and recorded a gain of $21.8 million. In addition, collected $3.5 million on note receivables and received $8.0 million on distributions from one of our unconsolidated joint ventures. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we received aggregate sales proceeds of $23.0 million from the sale of real estate and recorded a gain of $9.4 million. In addition, collected $0.3 million on note receivables and received $1.9 million on distributions from one of our unconsolidated joint ventures.

Our primary sources of cash from financing activities are from proceeds on notes payables either through refinancing our existing loans or by obtaining new financing. Our primary cash outlays are for recurring debt payments and payments on maturing notes payable.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the decreaseDispositions" in Management's Overview).

The increase in cash flow fromused in financing activities is primarily due to the $87.6 million increase in payments of mortgages, notes and bonds payable. The increase in payments of mortgages, notes and bonds payable is due to the pay off of the loan on 600 Las Colinas in 2021, the refinancing of Villas at Bon Secour in 2021 (See "Financing Activities" in Management's Overview), and a payment on bond principal of $21.7$31.9 million andincrease in payments on the bonds payable.

Funds From Operations ("FFO")
We use FFO in addition to net income to report our outstanding notesoperating and financial results and considers FFO and FFO-diluted as supplemental measures for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. The National Association of $7.9 million, partially offsetReal Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairment write-downs of real estate and write-downs of investments in an affiliate where the write-downs have been driven by proceedsa decrease in the value of real estate held by the affiliate and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We also present FFO excluding the impact of the effects of foreign currency transactions.
FFO and FFO on a diluted basis are useful to investors in comparing operating and financial results between periods. This is especially true since FFO excludes real estate depreciation and amortization, as we believe real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time. We believe that such a presentation also provides investors with a meaningful measure of our operating results in comparison to the operating results of other real estate companies. In addition, we believe that FFO excluding gain (loss) from borrowingsforeign currency transactions provide useful supplemental information regarding our performance as they show a more meaningful and consistent comparison of approximately $10.2 million. Duringour operating performance and allows investors to more easily compare our results.
We believe that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income as defined by GAAP, and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. We also caution that FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other real estate companies.
We compensate for the limitations of FFO by providing investors with financial statements prepared according to GAAP, along with this detailed discussion of FFO and a reconciliation of net income to FFO and FFO-diluted. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.
The following table reconciles our net income attributable to the Company to FFO and FFO-basic and diluted, excluding gain from foreign currency transactions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we received $78.1 million from the sale of nonconvertible Series C Bonds by Southern2021 and from borrowings of approximately $10.2 million, which were partially offset by payments on bond principal of $21.7 million2020 (dollars and mortgage debt of $45.6 million.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal, disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery for personal injury associated with such materials.

Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above matters that would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on our operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from property operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with inflationary increases, market conditions and decreasesshares in real estate costs. Fluctuations in the rate of inflation also affect sales values of properties and the ultimate gain to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects interest rates, earnings from short-term investments, the cost of new financings and the cost of variable interest rate debt will be affected.

Tax Matters

We are a member of the May Realty Holdings, Inc., (“MRHI”) consolidated group for federal income tax reporting. There is a tax sharing and compensating agreement between American Realty Investors, Inc. (“ARL”), Income Opportunities Realty Investors, Inc. (“IOR”), and the Company.

Financial statement income varies from taxable income principally due to the accounting for income and losses of investees, gains and losses from asset sales, depreciation on owned properties, amortization of discounts on notes receivable and payable and the difference in the allowance for estimated losses.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we had income before income taxes of $8.9 million driven mostly by the gains from sale of assets of $21.8 million.

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The ownership of property and provision of services to the public as tenants entails an inherent risk of liability. Although we are involved in various items of litigation incidental to and in the ordinary course of its business, we believe the outcome of such litigation will not have a material adverse impact upon our financial condition, results of operation or liquidity

liquidity.
In February 2019, a lawsuit was brought by Paul Berger (“Berger”) against us and others that alleges that we completed improper sales and/or transfers of property with Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. ("IOR"). Berger requests that we pay off various related party loans to IOR and that IOR then distribute the funds to its shareholders. We intend to vigorously defend against the allegations. The trial for this matter is set for November 2022.
On July 13, 2021, we received the arbitration verdict in connection with a dispute on the measurement of the Earn Out Obligation (See Note 9 – Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures of our consolidated financial statements), which determined that our position and claims were declined, and the position of Macquarie was fully accepted. As a result, we are required to pay approximately $39.6 million to Macquarie to satisfy the Earn Out Obligation.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the 20192020 10-K. For a discussion on these risk factors, please see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in the 20192020 10-K.

Risks Related to COVID-19 Pandemic

We continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and our property portfolio. While we did not incur significant disruptions during the threenine months ended September 30, 20202021 from the COVID-19 pandemic, weour commercial properties have experienced a decline in occupancy. We are unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties. These uncertainties include the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. The pandemic is having a significant impact on the U.S. economy and on the local markets in which our properties are located. Nearly every industry has been impacted directly or indirectly, and the commercial real estate market has come under pressure due to numerous factors, including preventative measures taken by local, state and federal authorities to alleviate the public health crisis such as mandatory business closures, quarantines, and restrictions on travel and “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders.

25

The following provides an overview of the impact of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We have collected approximately 96% of our third quarter rents, comprised of approximately 95% from multi-family tenants and 97% from office tenants.
We have not granted any abatements or granted any significant deferments of contractual rents.
Occupancy remains stable at 91% at September 30, 2020 and 2019.
We continue to obtain positive leasing spreads for new leases and renewals at properties.
Our ground up development work continues unabated and thus far we have not experienced any work stoppages.

In addition, we believe that our financing activities will not be significantly impacted by COVID-19, as most of our mortgage notes payable are secured by HUD guarantees which have long-term maturities.

The future impact of COVID-19 on our business and financial activities will depend on future developments, which at this stage are unpredictable considering the fluctuations of COVID-19 outbreaks and the resulting changes in the markets.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

ITEM 2.    UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
We have a share repurchase program authorizingthat allows for the repurchase of a total of 687,000 shares of our common stock. In September 2000, the Board increased this authorization to 1,387,000 shares. On August 10, 2010, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the share repurchase program for up to an additional 250,000 shares of common stock which results in a total authorization under the repurchase program for up to 1,637,000 shares of our common stock. This repurchase program has no termination date. There were no shares purchased under this program during the first nine months ended September 30, 2020.2021.
