Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-averageweighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed similar to basic net income (loss) per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares from share-based compensation arrangements had been issued.

 

Potentially dilutive shares arise from non-qualified stock options to purchase common stock and non-vested restricted stock.

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company uses a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company’s effective tax rate for 20172019 and 20162018 reflects the recognition of expected federal alternative minimum tax liabilities and interim period tax benefits and changes to its tax valuation allowance.

In December 2017, The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) was signed into law. The law includes significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system, including a Federal corporate rate reduction from 35% to 21%, elimination of Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) and refund of AMT credit carryforward, limitations on the deductibility of interest expense and executive compensation, and the transition of U.S. international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system. The TCJA also establishes new tax laws that will affect future periods, including, but not limited to: (1) reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate; (2) limiting deductible interest expense; (3) modifying the tax treatment of like-kind exchanges; (4) generally eliminating U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; (5) imposing a new provision designed to tax global intangible low-tax income; (6) creating the base erosion anti-abuse tax, a new minimum tax; (7) limiting the use of Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (8) modifying the limitations on the use of foreign tax credits to reduce our U.S. income tax liability; and (9) further restricting the deductibility of certain executive compensation and fringe benefits. The Company is in the process of analyzing the regulations issued and determining an estimate of the financial impact.

In accordance with TCJA, the Company eliminated $91.3 million of AMT NOL carry forwards at December 31, 2018 and recognized as income tax benefit $5.0 million from its unused AMT credit carry forwards. The Company expects to fully utilizereceive 50%, or $2.5 million, of said credit in 2019 and the special alternative minimum tax net operating loss carryforward from 2008 which allows for 100% offset toremaining balance over the alternative minimum taxable income in subsequentfollowing two years. Subsequent to the full utilization of the 2008 carryforward balance, the Company can only offset the normally allowed 90% of alternative minimum taxable income with net operating loss carryforwards from other years.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements to enable the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. GAAP requires that financial assets and liabilities be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 

12

the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows. The fair value of cash, receivables and payables approximate their carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair value of income tax receivables approximate their carrying value due to the certainty of collection or short-term nature of the instruments. The valuation is based on settlements of similar financial instruments all of which are short-term in nature and are generally settled at or near cost. The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for long-term debt with similar terms and maturities. The carrying amount of long-term debt at September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016 was $1.2 million2018 were $1,735,000 and $6.9 million,$1,235,000, respectively, which approximated fair value. The fair value of long-term debt has been classified inwas measured using the level 2 category.inputs, noted above.

13.NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued an ASU that sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases for both parties to a lease agreement (i.e., lessees and lessors). Subsequently, the FASB issued additional ASUs that further clarified the original ASU. The ASUs became effective for us on January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of the lease ASUs on January 1, 2019, we elected the following practical expedients provided by these ASUs:

 

13.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTSPackage of practical expedients – requires the Company not to reevaluate its existing or expired leases as of January 1, 2019, under the new lease accounting ASUs.

Optional transition method practical expedient – requires the Company to apply the new lease ASUs prospectively from the adoption date of January 1, 2019.

Land easements practical expedient – requires the Company to account for land easements existing as of January 1, 2019, under the accounting standards applied to them prior to January 1, 2019.

Single component practical expedient – requires the Company to account for lease and nonlease components associated with that lease under the new lease ASUs, if certain criteria are met.

Short-term leases practical expedient – for operating leases with a term of 12 months or less in which the Company is the lessee, this expedient allows us not to record on the Company’s balance sheets related lease liabilities, taxes collected from lessees, lessor costs paid directly by lessee to a third party and right-of-use assets.

 

Lessor accounting

The Company recognized revenue from our lease agreements aggregating $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This revenue consisted primarily of rental revenue, percentage rental revenue, and tenant recoveries.

11

The Company recognizes rental revenue from its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms. The Company commences recognition of rental revenue at the date the property is ready for its intended use and the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the property.

Under the lease ASU, each lease agreement will be evaluated to identify the lease components and nonlease components at lease inception. The total consideration in the lease agreement will be allocated to the lease and nonlease components based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lessors will continue to recognize the lease revenue component using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for operating leases (straight-line basis).

On January 1, 2019, the Company elected the single component practical expedient, which requires the Company, by class of underlying asset, not to allocate the total consideration to the lease and nonlease components based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. This single component practical expedient requires the Company to account for the lease component and nonlease component(s) associated with that lease as a single component if (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease component and the nonlease component(s) associated with it are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If it is determined that the lease component is the predominant component, the Company accounts for the single component as an operating lease in accordance with the new lease ASUs. Conversely, the Company is required to account for the combined component under the new revenue recognition ASU if it is determined that the nonlease component is the predominant component.

As a result of this assessment, rental revenues and tenant recoveries from the lease of real estate assets that qualify for this expedient are accounted for as a single component under the new lease ASUs, with tenant recoveries primarily as variable consideration. Tenant recoveries that do not qualify for the single component practical expedient and are considered nonlease components are accounted for under the revenue recognition ASUs. The Company’s operating leases commencing or modified after January 1, 2019, for which the Company is the lessor are expected to qualify for the single component practical expedient accounting under the new lease ASUs. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Costs to execute leases

The new lease ASU will require that lessors and lessees capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease (e.g. commissions paid to leasing brokers). Under the new lease ASU, allocated payroll costs and other costs such as legal costs incurred as part of the leasing process prior to the execution of a lease will no longer qualify for classification as initial direct costs but will instead be expensed as incurred. Under the package of practical expedients that the Company elected on January 1, 2019, it is not required to reassess whether initial direct leasing costs capitalized prior to the adoption of the new lease ASUs in connection with the leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019, qualify for capitalization under the new lease ASUs. Effective January 1, 2019, costs that the Company incurs to negotiate or arrange a lease regardless of its outcome, such as fixed employee compensation, tax, or legal advice to negotiate lease terms, and costs related to advertising or soliciting potential tenants are expensed as incurred.

Lessee accounting

Under the new lease ASUs, lessees are required to apply a dual approach by classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which corresponds to a similar evaluation performed by lessors. In May 2014,addition to this classification, a lessee is also required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases regardless of their classification, whereas a lessor is not required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for any operating leases.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized rent expense of approximately $7,000 for these leases. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining contractual payments under the office and equipment leases are $50,000. All of the aforementioned leases for which the Company is the lessee are currently classified as operating leases.

Under the package of practical expedients that the Company elected upon adoption of the new lease ASUs, all of its operating leases existing as of January 1, 2019, for which the Company is the lessee, continue to be classified as operating leases subsequent to the adoption of the new lease ASUs. The Company has also evaluated the effect of the new lease ASUs on the calculation of its debt covenants as of March 31, 2019 and noted no significant effect on the calculation.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires that an entity use the defined five step processconsideration of a broader range of information to recognize revenue. The ASU also requires additional disclosures and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. While the Company continues to assess its contracts with customers, it does not currently expect a material impact on results of operations, cash flows or financial position. The Company expects the consolidated financial statement disclosures over revenue recognition will expand in order to comply with the ASU.

In March 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of accounting estimates. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are considered reasonably possible and may have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and thus actual results could differ from the amounts reported and disclosed herein. Our critical accounting policies that require the use of estimates and assumptions were discussed in detail in our most recently filed Form 10-K. On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02 and related ASUs which changes certain aspects of accounting for leases for both lessees and lessors without material impact. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the first nine three months of 2017.2019, other than the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02.

The increase in share-based compensation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 was the result of higher performance-based awards under our equity and incentive award plan. The decrease in depreciation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 reflects our sale of a 26,000 square foot building, commonly referred to as the Kapalua Village Center, in December 2016. The decrease in interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 is the result of the reduction and refinancing of our long-term debt. Included in pension and other postretirement expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 is a reduction of approximately $0.7 million resulting from a one-time payment settlement with certain participants of our non-qualified retirement plans, which was paid in October 2016.

In April 2017, approximately $6.7 million of land improvements were conveyed to us by the owner of a 125-acre portion of our Kapalua Mauka project. The owner purchased the 125-acre property, commonly known as Mahana Estates, in 2009. As part of the sale, the owner agreed to subsequently develop and convey to us upon completion certain easements, subdivision and utility improvements related to the Mahana Estates property.

In February 2017, we sold the 15-acre Kapalua Golf Academy practice course located in the Kapalua Resort for $7.0 million to the owner of the Kapalua Plantation and Bay Golf Courses. The property was sold without any development entitlements. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $6.4 million. The property was not pledged as collateral under our revolving line of credit facility. We applied $5.6 million of the sale proceeds toward our revolving line of credit facility.

In August 2016, we sold a five-acre, fully-entitled 42-unit workforce housing project located in West Maui for $3.0 million. As part of the transaction, the buyer also agreed to provide us with 12 residential workforce housing credits by August 2021. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $2.8 million. Proceeds from the sale were used to pay down our First Hawaiian Bank credit facility.

In June 2016, we sold a fully-entitled 304-acre working-class community project located in West Maui, commonly referred to as Pulelehua, for $15.0 million.
