Medalist Diversified REIT, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Medalist Diversified Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the “REIT”) is a Maryland corporation formed on September 28, 2015. Beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2017, the REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes. The REIT serves as the general partner of Medalist Diversified Holdings, LP (the “Operating Partnership”) which was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on September 29, 2015. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the REIT, through the Operating Partnership, owned and operated eight properties, including the Shops at Franklin Square, a 134,239 square foot retail property located in Gastonia, North Carolina (the “Franklin Square Property”), the Shops at Hanover Square North, a 73,440 square foot retail property located in Mechanicsville, Virginia (the “Hanover Square Property”), the Ashley Plaza Shopping Center, a 164,012 square foot retail property located in Goldsboro, North Carolina (the “Ashley Plaza Property”), Brookfield Center, a 64,880 square foot mixed-use industrial/office property located in Greenville, South Carolina (the “Brookfield Center Property”), the Lancer Center, a 181,590 square foot retail property located in Lancaster, South Carolina (the “Lancer Center Property”), the Greenbrier Business Center, an 89,280 square foot mixed-use industrial/office property located in Chesapeake, Virginia (the “Greenbrier Business Center Property”), the Parkway Property, a 64,109 square foot mixed-use industrial office property located in Virginia Beach, Virginia (the “Parkway Property”) and the Salisbury Marketplace Shopping Center, a 79,732 square foot retail property located in Salisbury, North Carolina (the “Salisbury Marketplace Property”). The Company owns 84% of the Hanover Square Property as a tenant in common with a noncontrolling owner which owns the remaining 16% interest and 82% of the Parkway Property as a tenant in common with a noncontrolling owner which owns the remaining 18% interest.

Table of Contents

The use of the word “Company” refers to the REIT and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires. The Company includes the REIT, the Operating Partnership, wholly owned limited liability companies which own or operate the properties and, for the periods presented prior to September 30, 2022, the taxable REIT subsidiary which formerly operated the Clemson Best Western University Inn, a hotel with 148 rooms on 5.92 acres in Clemson, South Carolina (“the Clemson Best Western Property”), which the Company sold on September 29, 2022. As a REIT, certain tax laws limit the amount of “non-qualifying” income that Company can earn, including income derived directly from the operation of hotels. As a result, the Company leased its consolidated hotel property to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes. The Company’s TRS was subject to income tax and was not limited as to the amount of nonqualifying income it could generate, but the Company’s TRS was limited in terms of its value as a percentage of the total value of the Company’s assets. The Company’s TRS entered into an agreement with a third party to manage the operations of the hotel.

The Company prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). References to the condensed consolidated financial statements and references to individual financial statements included herein, reference the condensed consolidated financial statements or the respective individual financial statement. All material balances and transactions between the consolidated entities of the Company have been eliminated.

The Company was formed to acquire, reposition, renovate, lease and manage income-producing properties, with a primary focus on (i) commercial properties, including flex-industrial, limited-service hotels, and retail properties, and (ii) multi-family residential properties in secondary and tertiary markets in the southeastern part of the United States, with an expected concentration in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama. The Company may also pursue, in an opportunistic manner, other real estate-related investments, including, among other things, equity or other ownership interests in entities that are the direct or indirect owners of real property, indirect investments in real property, such as those that may be obtained in a joint venture. While these types of investments are not intended to be a primary focus, the Company may make such investments at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

~~As of June 30,~~For all periods prior to July 18, 2023, the Company was externally managed by Medalist Fund Manager, Inc. (the “Manager”). On July 18, 2023, the Company and the Manager entered into an agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) terminating that certain Management Agreement, dated as of March 15, 2016, among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager, as amended (the “Management Agreement”). (See Note 9, Related Party Transactions, ~~and Note 11, Subsequent Events,~~ below). Until the termination of the Management Agreement, the Manager made all investment decisions for the Company, which were approved by the Board’s Acquisition Committee. In addition, until the termination of the Management Agreement, the Manager oversaw the Company’s overall business and affairs and had broad discretion to make operating decisions on behalf of the Company. After the termination of the Management Agreement, the Company is managed by internal management directed by the Board. The Company’s stockholders are not involved in its day-to-day affairs.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Investment Properties

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), which clarifies the framework for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities meets the definition of a business. The revised framework establishes a screen for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities is a business and narrows the definition of a business, which is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. As a result, all of the Company’s acquisitions to date qualified as asset acquisitions and the Company expects future acquisitions of operating properties to qualify as asset acquisitions. Accordingly, third-party transaction costs associated with these acquisitions have been and will be capitalized, while internal acquisition costs will continue to be expensed.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 mandates that “an acquiring entity shall allocate the cost of an acquired entity to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at date of acquisition.” ASC 805 results in an allocation of acquisition costs to both tangible and intangible assets associated with income producing real estate. Tangible assets include land, buildings, site improvements, tenant improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment, while intangible assets include the value of in-place leases, lease origination costs (leasing commissions and tenant improvements), legal and marketing costs and leasehold assets and liabilities (above or below market leases), among others.

Table of Contents

The Company uses independent, third-party consultants to assist management with its ASC 805 evaluations. The Company determines fair value based on accepted valuation methodologies including the cost, market, and income capitalization approaches. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets identified in the evaluation.

The Company records depreciation on buildings and improvements utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, generally 4 to 42 years. The Company reviews depreciable lives of investment properties periodically and makes adjustments to reflect a shorter economic life, when necessary. Capitalized leasing commissions and tenant improvements incurred and paid by the Company subsequent to the acquisition of the investment property are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Amounts allocated to buildings are depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the acquired building or related improvements.

Acquisition and closing costs are capitalized as part of each tangible asset on a pro rata basis. Improvements and major repairs and maintenance are capitalized when the repair and maintenance substantially extend the useful life, increases capacity or improves the efficiency of the asset. All other repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company reviews investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable, but at least annually. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. The Company measures any impairment of investment property when the estimated undiscounted cash flows plus its residual value, is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the Company charges to income the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. The Company estimates fair value using unobservable data such as projected future operating income, estimated capitalization rates, or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. The Company may decide to sell properties that are held for use and the sale prices of these properties may differ from their carrying values.

Other than the tenant-specific losses on impairment and the impairment of assets held for sale described below, the Company did not record any impairment adjustments to its investment properties resulting from events or changes in circumstances during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022, that would result in the projected value being below the carrying value of the Company’s properties.

Assets Held for Sale

The Company may decide to sell properties that are held as investment properties. The accounting treatment for the disposal of long-lived assets is covered by ASC 360. Under this guidance, the Company records the assets associated with these properties, and any associated mortgages payable, as held for sale when management has committed to a plan to sell the assets, actively seeks a buyer for the assets, and the consummation of the sale is considered probable and is expected within one year. Delays in the time required to complete a sale do not preclude a long-lived asset from continuing to be classified as held for sale beyond the initial one-year period if the delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond an entity’s control and there is sufficient evidence that the entity remains committed to a qualifying plan to sell the long-lived asset.

Properties classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value, less estimated costs to sell. When the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, an impairment charge is recognized. The Company determines fair value based on the three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

During February 2021, the Company committed to a plan for the sale of an asset group associated with the Clemson Best Western Hotel Property that included the land, site improvements, building, building improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment. As of March 31, 2021, the Company recorded this asset group, and the associated mortgage payable, as held for sale. As of March 31, 2021, the date the Company originally recorded this asset group as held for sale, the Company determined that the fair value of the Clemson Best Western Property exceeded the carrying value of its asset group, and the Company did not record impairment of assets held for sale associated with this asset group.

During subsequent periods since the asset group associated with the Clemson Best Western Property was initially classified as held for sale, the Company continued to follow its disposal plan. Under ASC 360, during subsequent reporting periods after the asset

~~Table of Contents~~

group is classified as held for sale, it is necessary to evaluate the amounts previously used for the estimated fair value of the asset group. Up to and including the reporting periods ending December 31, 2021, the Company reviewed and reassessed the estimated fair value of the asset group and believed that the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, exceeds the Company’s carrying cost in the property. Accordingly, the Company did not record impairment of assets held for sale related to the Clemson Best Western Property for the year ended December 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company determined that the carrying value of the asset group associated with the Clemson Best Western Hotel Property exceeded its fair value, less estimated costs to sell, and recorded impairment of assets held for sale of $175,671 on its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. No such impairment of assets held for sale was recorded during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2023.~~

2023 or the three months ended September 30, 2022. On September 29, 2022, the Company closed on the sale of the Clemson Best Western Hotel Property to an unaffiliated purchaser. See Note 3 for additional details.

Table of Contents

Intangible Assets and Liabilities, net

The Company determines, through the ASC 805 evaluation, the above and below market lease intangibles upon acquiring a property. Intangible assets (or liabilities) such as above or below-market leases and in-place lease value are recorded at fair value and are amortized as an adjustment to rental revenue or amortization expense, as appropriate, over the remaining terms of the underlying leases. The Company amortizes amounts allocated to tenant improvements, in-place lease assets and other lease-related intangibles over the remaining life of the underlying leases. The analysis is conducted on a lease-by-lease basis.

The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually. During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company agreed to allow a tenant to terminate its lease ~~early. During the six months ended June 30, 2023,~~early and a second tenant defaulted on its lease and abandoned its premises. The Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible assets and liabilities, net, associated with these leases that were recorded as part of the purchase of these properties should be written off. As a result, for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment related to intangible assets of ~~$5,873, and for~~$41,424. For the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, ~~the Company recorded a~~no such loss on impairment ~~related to intangible assets of $41,424.~~was recorded. These amounts are included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023.

In addition, during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company wrote off ~~$1,192 and~~ $9,435 in unbilled rent related to ~~the early-terminating tenant,~~these two tenants, which is also recorded as a loss on impairment on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. No such loss on impairment was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2023 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, two tenants defaulted on their leases and abandoned their premises. The Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible assets and liabilities, net, associated with these leases of $36,670 that were recorded as part of the purchase of these properties should be written off. This amount is included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. No such loss on impairment was recorded during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2022.~~2022 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Details of the deferred costs, net of amortization, arising from the Company’s purchases of its retail center properties and flex center properties are as follows:

Conditional Asset Retirement Obligation

A conditional asset retirement obligation represents a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement depends on a future event that may or may not be within the Company’s control. Currently, the Company does not have any conditional asset retirement obligations. However, any such obligations identified in the future would result in the Company recording a liability if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental studies conducted at the time the Company acquired its properties did not reveal any material environmental liabilities, and the Company is unaware of any subsequent environmental matters that would have created a material liability.

~~Table of Contents~~

The Company believes that its properties are currently in material compliance with applicable environmental, as well as non-environmental, statutory and regulatory requirements. The Company did not record any conditional asset retirement obligation liabilities during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents consist primarily of bank operating accounts and money markets. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include its cash and equivalents and its trade accounts receivable.

The Company places its cash and cash equivalents and any restricted cash held by the Company on deposit with financial institutions in the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company ~~("FDIC"~~(“FDIC”) up to $250,000. The ~~Company's~~Company’s credit loss in the event of failure of these financial institutions is represented by the difference between the FDIC limit and the total amounts on deposit. Management monitors the financial institutions’ credit worthiness in conjunction with balances on deposit to minimize risk. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company held one cash account at a financial institution with a balance that exceeded the FDIC limit by ~~$1,161,727.~~$1,776,409. As of December 31, 2022, the Company held two cash accounts at a single financial institution with combined balances that exceeded the FDIC limit by $2,613,789.

Restricted cash represents (i) amounts held by the Company for tenant security deposits, (ii) escrow deposits held by lenders for real estate tax, insurance, and operating reserves, (iii) an escrow for the first year of dividends on the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, and (iv) capital reserves held by lenders for investment property capital improvements.

Tenant security deposits are restricted cash balances held by the Company to offset potential damages, unpaid rent or other unmet conditions of its tenant leases. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company reported ~~$267,587~~$272,728 and $267,854, respectively, in security deposits held as restricted cash.

Escrow deposits are restricted cash balances held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance and other operating reserves. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company reported ~~$834,416~~$969,723 and $579,785, respectively, in escrow deposits.

Capital reserves are restricted cash balances held by lenders for capital improvements, leasing commissions and tenant improvements. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company reported ~~$934,547~~$491,846 and $893,078, respectively, in capital property reserves.

Share Retirement

ASC 505-30-30-8 provides guidance on accounting for share retirement and establishes two alternative methods for accounting for the repurchase price paid in excess of par value. The Company has elected the method by which the excess between par value and the repurchase price, including costs and fees, is recorded to additional paid in capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the ~~six~~three and nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 33,509 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Shares”), at a total cost of $278,277 at an average price of $8.30 per Common Share (Common Shares and average price adjusted for the Company’s Reverse Stock Split (as defined below)). The Company incurred fees of $8,266 associated with these transactions. Of the total repurchase price, $335 was recorded to Common Shares and the difference, $286,208, was recorded to additional paid in capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. No such amounts were recorded during the three and nine months ended ~~June 30, 2022 or during the three and six months ended June~~September 30, 2023.

Revenue Recognition

Retail and Flex Center Property Revenues

The Company recognizes minimum rents from its retail center properties and flex center properties on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases which results in an unbilled rent asset being recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company reported ~~$1,087,177~~$1,097,570 and $1,022,153, respectively, in unbilled rent. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment of ~~$8,242~~$0 and ~~$8,242,~~$9,435, respectively, related to previously recognized straight-line rent related to a defaulting tenant’s lease. No such loss on impairment related to straight-line rent was recorded during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

The Company’s leases generally require the tenant to reimburse the Company for a substantial portion of its expenses incurred in operating, maintaining, repairing, insuring and managing the shopping center and common areas (collectively defined as Common Area Maintenance or “CAM” expenses). The Company includes these reimbursements, along with other revenue derived from late fees and seasonal events, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations under the captions "Retail center property revenues” and “Flex center property revenues.” (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements, below.) This significantly reduces the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation or other outside factors. The Company accrues reimbursements from tenants for recoverable portions of all these expenses as revenue in the period the applicable expenditures are incurred. The Company calculates the tenant’s share of operating costs by multiplying the total amount of the operating costs by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of square feet being leased by the tenant, and the denominator of which is the average total square footage of all leasable buildings at the property. The Company also receives payments for these reimbursements from substantially all its tenants on a monthly basis throughout the year.

The Company recognizes differences between previously estimated recoveries and the final billed amounts in the year in which the amounts become final. Since these differences are determined annually under the leases and accrued as of December 31 in the year earned, no such revenues were recognized during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022.

The Company recognizes lease termination fees in the period that the lease is terminated and collection of the fees is reasonably assured. Upon early lease termination, the Company provides for losses related to unrecovered intangibles and other assets. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, no such termination costs were recognized.

Hotel Property Revenues

Hotel revenues from the Clemson Best Western Property were recognized as earned, which is generally defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel’s services. Revenues from the Company’s occupancy agreement with Clemson University were recognized as earned, which is as rooms are occupied or otherwise reserved for use by the University. The Clemson University occupancy agreement ended on May 15, 2022 and the Company sold the Clemson Best Western Property on September 29, 2022.

Hotel Property Operating Expenses

All personnel of the Clemson Best Western Property were directly or indirectly employees of Marshall Hotels and Resorts, Inc. (“Marshall”), the Company’s hotel management firm. In addition to fees and services discussed above, the Clemson Best Western Property reimbursed Marshall for all employee related service costs, including payroll salaries and wages, payroll taxes and other employee benefits paid by Marshall on its behalf. The total amounts incurred for payroll salaries and wages, payroll taxes and other employee benefits for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 were $0 and $0, respectively, and for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 were ~~$139,876~~$198,024 and ~~$271,815,~~$469,839, respectively.

Management Restructuring Expenses

On March 10, 2023, the Board announced that it had established a Special Committee (the “Special Committee”) to explore potential strategic alternatives focusing on maximizing stockholder value. The Special Committee was comprised solely of independent directors and was charged with exploring potential strategic alternatives including, without limitation, a business combination involving the Company, a sale of all or part of the Company’s assets, joint venture arrangements and/or restructurings, and determining whether a strategic transaction was in the best interest of the Company. On April 18, 2023, the Company announced that the Special Committee was in active discussions with potential parties in pursuit of those alternatives. On July 12, 2023, the Board approved the Company’s

Table of Contents

negotiation of the sale of its interests in four properties from the Company's portfolio. On August 7, 2023, the Company announced that it had ceased to pursue the sale of these properties. Subsequent to this August 7, 2023 announcement, the Special Committee has not taken any further actions.

On July 18, 2023, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into the Termination Agreement with the Manager, William R. Elliott and Thomas E. Messier, which provided for the immediate termination of the Management Agreement and, among other things, aggregate payments of $1,602,717 in settlement of all amounts payable under the Management Agreement (consisting of a $1,250,000 termination fee and the $352,717 Deferred Acquisition Fee, as defined in Note 9, below). The Company has recorded the termination fee and other expenses associated with the Special Committee’s exploration of strategic alternatives as management restructuring expenses on its condensed consolidated statement of operations in accordance with ASC 420-10-S99. Specifically, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $1,452,904 and $1,846,329, respectively,. in management restructuring expenses. No such expenses were recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Rent and other receivables

Rent and other receivables include tenant receivables related to base rents and tenant reimbursements. Rent and other receivables do not include receivables attributable to recording rents on a straight-line basis, which are included in unbilled rent, discussed above. The Company determines an allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rents and accounts receivable based upon customer credit worthiness (including expected recovery of a claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends. The Company considers a receivable past due once it becomes delinquent per the terms of the lease. A past due receivable triggers certain events such as notices, fees and other allowable and required actions per the lease. As of

~~Table of Contents~~

~~June~~ September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s allowance for uncollectible rent totaled ~~$79,330~~$0 and $47,109, respectively, which are comprised of amounts specifically identified based on management’s review of individual tenants’ outstanding receivables. Management determined that no additional general reserve is considered necessary as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Income Taxes

Beginning with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2017, the REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable Treasury regulations relating to REIT qualification. In order to maintain this REIT status, the regulations require the Company to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders and meet certain other asset and income tests, as well as other requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, it will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates for the years in which it fails to qualify. If the Company loses its REIT status it could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for five years unless the Company’s failure to qualify was due to reasonable cause and certain other conditions were satisfied.

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company's Clemson Best Western TRS entity generated a taxable loss, so no income tax was recorded. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company no longer owned the Clemson Best Western Hotel Property.

Management has evaluated the effect of the guidance provided by GAAP on Accounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxes and has determined that the Company had no uncertain income tax positions.

Use of Estimates

The Company has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reported period. The Company’s actual results could differ from these estimates.

Table of Contents

Noncontrolling Interests

The ownership interests not held by the REIT are considered noncontrolling interests. There are three elements of noncontrolling interests in the capital structure of the Company. These noncontrolling interests have been reported in equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets but separate from the Company’s equity. On the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amount, including both the amount attributable to the Company and noncontrolling interests. The Company’s condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity includes beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for shareholders’ equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity.

The first noncontrolling interest is in the Hanover Square Property in which the Company owns an 84% tenancy in common interest through its subsidiary and an outside party owns a 16% tenancy in common interest. The Hanover Square Property’s net (loss) income is allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest based on its 16% ownership. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, 16% of the Hanover Square Property’s net loss of ~~$102~~$1,408 and $~~7,857,~~9,265, respectively, or ~~$16~~$225 and ~~$1,257,~~$1,482, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, 16% of the Hanover Square Property’s net income of $~~45,451~~52,923 orand $~~43,459,~~96,382, respectively, or ~~$7,272~~$8,468 and ~~$6,953,~~$15,421, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest.

The second noncontrolling interest is in the Parkway Property in which the Company owns an 82% tenancy in common interest through its subsidiary and an outside party owns an 18% tenancy in common interest. The Parkway Property’s net income is allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest based on its 18% ownership. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, 18% of the Parkway Property's net income of $~~90,272~~12,215 orand $~~43,790,~~56,005, respectively, or ~~$16,249~~$2,199 and ~~$7,882,~~$10,081, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, 18% of the Parkway Property’s net income of ~~$22,513~~$93,231 and ~~$79,137, respectively,~~$172,368 or ~~$4,052~~$16,782 and ~~$14,245,~~$31,027, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest.

The third noncontrolling ownership interest is the common units of the Operating Partnership (the “Operating Partnership Units”) that are not held by the REIT. In 2017, 15,625 Operating Partnership Units were issued to members of the selling limited liability company which owned the Hampton Inn Property who elected to participate in a 721 exchange, which allows the exchange of interests

~~Table of Contents~~

in real property for shares in a real estate investment trust. These members of the selling limited liability company invested $1,175,000 in the Operating Partnership in exchange for 15,625 Operating Partnership Units. Additionally, as discussed above, effective on January 1, 2020, 11,731 Operating Partnership Units were issued in exchange for approximately 3.45% of the noncontrolling owner’s tenant in common interest in the Hampton Inn Property. On August 31, 2020, a holder of Operating Partnership Units converted 665 Operating Partnership Units into Common Shares. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there were 26,691 Operating Partnership Units outstanding. Outstanding Operating Partnership Units have been adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below). (See note 7, below).

The Operating Partnership Units not held by the REIT represent 1.19% of the outstanding Operating Partnership Units as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The noncontrolling interest percentage is calculated at any point in time by dividing the number of Operating Partnership Units not owned by the Company by the total number of Operating Partnership Units outstanding. The noncontrolling interest ownership percentage will change as additional common or preferred shares are issued by the REIT, or additional Operating Partnerships Units are issued or as Operating Partnership Units are exchanged for the Company’s $0.01 par value per share Common Shares. During periods when the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interest changes, the noncontrolling ownership interest is calculated based on the weighted average Operating Partnership noncontrolling ownership interest during that period. The Operating Partnership’s net loss is allocated to the noncontrolling Operating Partnership Unit holders based on their ownership interest.

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, a weighted average of 1.19% ~~and 1.19%~~ of the Operating Partnership’s net ~~loss~~income (loss) of ~~$39,346~~$41,437 and ~~$283,335,~~($241,898), respectively, or ~~$468~~$493 and ~~$3,371,~~($2,878), respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling unit holders. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, a weighted average of 1.21% ~~and 1.22%~~ of the Operating Partnership’s net loss of ~~$361,666~~$1,233,543 and ~~$437,548,~~$1,671,091, respectively, or ~~$4,376~~$14,926 and ~~$5,349,~~$20,275, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling Operating Partnership Unit holders.

(See Management Restructuring Expenses, above.)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Since its initial public offering, the Company elected to be classified as an emerging growth company in its periodic reporting to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and accordingly followed the private company implementation dates for new accounting pronouncements. Effective for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company is no longer classified as an emerging growth company but has retained its classification as a smaller reporting company and therefore follows implementation dates applicable to smaller reporting companies with respect to new accounting pronouncements. In addition, the Company has elected to follow scaled disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board

(“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in this update govern a number of areas including, but not limited to, accounting for leases, replacing the previous guidance in ASC No. 840, Leases. Under this standard, among other changes in practice, a lessee’s rights and obligations under most leases, including existing and new arrangements, must be recognized as assets and liabilities, respectively, on the balance sheets. Other significant provisions of this standard include (i) defining the “lease term” to include the non-cancelable period together with periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease; (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheets to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance “fixed,” (iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased asset’s economic benefits and (iv) a requirement to bifurcate certain lease and non-lease components. The lease standard was effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those fiscal years) and for private companies, fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The FASB subsequently deferred the effective date of ASU 2016-02 for private companies by one year, to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, to provide those companies with additional time to address various implementation challenges and complexities. In June 2020, the FASB further deferred the effective date due to the effects on

~~Table of Contents~~

private companies from business and capital market disruptions caused by the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. Following those deferrals, ASU 2016-02 became effective for private companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the standard effective on January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach within ASU 2018-11, which allows for the application date to be the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new standard. The Company historically has not been and is not currently a “lessee” under any lease agreements, and thus did not have any arrangements requiring the recognition of lease assets or liabilities on its balance sheet.

As a “lessor”, the Company has active lease agreements with over ~~100~~130 tenants across its portfolio of investment properties. On a prospective and retrospective basis, the accounting for those leases under ASU 2016-02 (ASC No. 842) is substantially unchanged from the previous guidance in ASC No. 840. However, upon the adoption of ASC No. 842, the Company has elected the practical expedient permitting lessors to elect by class of underlying asset to not separate non-lease components (for example, maintenance services, including common area maintenance) from associated lease components (the “non-separation practical expedient”) if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and non-lease component(s) are the same and (2) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If both criteria are met, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 842 if the lease component is the predominant component of the combined component; otherwise, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition standard. Prior to the adoption of ASC No. 842, the Company separated lease-related revenue from its retail center and flex center properties into two components. Fixed rental payments under its leases (recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying lease) were recorded as retail center property revenues and flex center property revenues. Variable payments under the leases made by tenants for real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance (“CAM”) expenses were recorded as retail center and flex center tenant reimbursements. With the adoption of ASC No. 842, the Company determined that its retail center and flex center operating leases qualify for the non-separation practical expedient based on the guidance. As a result, the Company has accounted for and presented the

Table of Contents

revenues from these leases, including tenant reimbursements, as a single line item on its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Debt With Conversion Options

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt With Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The objective of ASU 2020-06 is to reduce the current complexity involved in accounting for convertible financial instruments by reducing the number of accounting models applicable to those instruments in the existing guidance. Following the adoption of ASU 2020-06, companies are expected to encounter fewer instances in which a convertible financial instrument must be separated into a debt or equity component and a derivative component for accounting purposes due to the embedded conversion feature. As a result of these revisions, debt instruments issued with a beneficial conversion feature will no longer require separation and thus will be accounted for as a single debt instrument under the updated guidance. In addition to those changes, ASU 2020-06 adds several incremental financial statement disclosures with respect to a company’s convertible financial instruments and makes certain refinements with respect to calculating the effect of those instruments on a company’s diluted earnings per share. ASU 2020-06 isbecame effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 (including interim periods within those fiscal years), and for private companies, fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption of the guidance iswas permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The updated guidance in ASU 2020-06 was adopted effective January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit losses to include the use of forward-looking information to better calculate credit loss estimates. The guidance applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, such as accounts receivable and loans; however, it does not apply to receivables arising from operating leases accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 842. ASU 2016-13 requires that the Company estimate the lifetime expected credit loss with respect to applicable receivables and record allowances that, when deducted from the balance of the receivables, represent the net amounts expected to be collected. The Company is also required to disclose information about how it developed the allowances, including changes in the factors that influenced the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. The Company’s credit losses primarily arise from tenant defaults on amounts due under operating leases. As noted, these losses are not subject to the guidance in ASU 2016-13, and historically have not been significant. The Company adopted the update on the required effective date of January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Effects of Reference Rate Reform

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 London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), which has been widely used as a reference interest rate in debt agreements and other contracts, was effectively discontinued for new contracts as of December 31, 2021, and its publication for existing contracts was discontinued as of June 30, 2023. Financial market regulators in certain jurisdictions throughout the world undertook reference rate reform initiatives to guide the transition and modification of debt agreements and other contracts that are based on LIBOR to the successor reference rate designated to replace it. ASU 2020-04 was issued to provide companies impacted by these changes with the opportunity to elect certain expedients and exceptions that are intended to ease the potential burden of accounting for or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. Under ASU 2020-04, companies were permitted to elect to use the expedients and exceptions provided therein for any reference rate contract modifications that occurred in reporting periods that encompassed the timeline from March 12, 2020 to December 31, 2022. The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset of Topic 848, to extend that timeline from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company’s Parkway Property is financed by a mortgage loan with a corresponding interest rate protection agreement which both used USD LIBOR as the reference interest rate (see Note 5, below). The mortgage loan matures on November 1, 2031, and the interest rate protection agreement expires on December 1, 2026. Effective July 1, 2023, the mortgage loan on the Parkway Property and the interest rate protection agreement were modified to replace the USD LIBOR reference rate with the corresponding Secured Overnight Financing Rate (see Note 5, below). The Company elected to apply the expedients and exceptions provided in ASU 2020-04 to these changes. The Company elected to account for the incorporation of the corresponding Secured Overnight Financing Rate as the replacement reference rate prospectively without requiring contract modification accounting or reassessment of the effectiveness of the interest rate protection transaction. The reference rate changes and the application of the expedients in ASU 2020-04 ~~will~~did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Upcoming Accounting Pronouncements

Disclosure Improvements

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. ASU 2023-06 amends various subtopics of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to incorporate into generally accepted accounting principles certain incremental presentation and disclosure requirements that were added to the SEC’s reporting regulations for public companies in 2018. Several of these presentation and disclosure requirements are applicable to the Company, including disclosures related to mortgaged assets, unused lines of credit, the presentation of gains and losses from derivative instruments in the statement of cash flows, and the tax status of distributions to stockholders. The amendments made to the specific subtopics of the Codification become effective only if and when the SEC removes the related presentation or disclosure requirement from its regulations by June 30, 2027. As a public company, Medalist is already subject to the relevant presentation and disclosure requirements under the existing SEC regulations, and therefore the related amendments to the Codification will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Evaluation of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, the Company is required to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether or not the entity’s current financial condition, including its sources of liquidity at the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, will enable the entity to meet its obligations as they come due arising within one year of the date of the issuance of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and to make a determination as to whether or not it is probable, under the application of this accounting guidance, that the entity will be able to continue as a going concern. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

In applying applicable accounting guidance, management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows, the Company’s obligations due over the next twelve months as well as the Company’s recurring business operating expenses.

The Company concludes that it is probable that the Company will be able to meet its obligations arising within one year of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within the parameters set forth in the accounting guidance.

Beginning on February 19, 2022, the second anniversary of the issuance, the Company may redeem the outstanding mandatorily redeemable preferred stock for an amount equal to its aggregate liquidation preference, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends.

Holders of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock generally have no voting rights. However, if the Company does not pay dividends on the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock for six consecutive quarterly periods, the holders of that stock, voting together as a single class with the holders of any outstanding Parity Stock having similar voting rights, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional directors to serve on the ~~Company’s~~ Board ~~of Directors (the “Board”)~~ until the Company pays all dividends owed on the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, voting together as a single class with the holders of any other class or series of the Company’s preferred stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, is required for the Company to authorize, create or increase the number of shares of any class or series of capital stock expressly designated as ranking senior to the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock as to distribution rights and rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In addition, the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock (voting as a separate class) is required to amend the Company’s charter (including the articles supplementary designating the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock) in a manner that materially and adversely affects the rights of the holders of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. Among other things, the Company may, without any vote of the holders of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, issue additional shares of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock and may authorize and issue additional shares of any class or series of any Junior Stock or Parity Stock.

The Company has classified the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock as a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which states that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities and therefore the related dividend payments are treated as a component of interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations (see Note 5, below, for a discussion of interest expense associated with the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock).

For the following periods during which the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock has been outstanding, the Company has paid a cash dividend on the stock equal to 8% per annum, paid quarterly, as follows:

Nasdaq Compliance

On July 11, 2022, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Deficiency Letter”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that, for the last thirty (30) consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s Common Shares had been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550 (a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was given one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, or until January 9, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

On January 10, 2023, the Company received a letter (the “Second Notification”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that, while the Company had not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the Staff determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until July 10, 2023 (the “Second Compliance Period”), to regain compliance. The Staff’s determination was based on (i) the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on Nasdaq, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price

2728

Table of Contents

Requirement, and (ii) the Company’s written notice to the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

Neither the Deficiency Letter or the Second Notification had any effect on the listing of the Company’s Common Shares, and its Common Shares continued to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “MDRR.”

On May 18, 2023, the Company received written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC stating that the Company had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on ~~the~~ Nasdaq ~~Capital Market~~ because the Company’s Common Shares had a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for ten consecutive business days. Accordingly, the Listing Qualifications Staff considers the matter closed.

Completion of 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split

On May 3, 2023, the Company completed a reverse stock split of its Common Shares, and a corresponding adjustment to the outstanding common Operating Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership, at a ratio of 1-for-8 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split took effect at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 3, 2023 (the “Effective Time”) and automatically converted every eight Common Shares outstanding at that time into one Common Share.

The Reverse Stock Split affected all holders of Common Shares uniformly and did not affect any Common Shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for de minimis changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares, as described below. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of Common Shares outstanding was reduced from 17,758,421 to 2,219,803 shares as of the Effective Time.

No fractional Common Shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, each holder of Common Shares that otherwise would have received fractional Common Shares received, in lieu of such fractional Common Shares, cash in an amount equal to the applicable fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Shares on Nasdaq on May 3, 2023 (as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split). The redemption of the fractional shares further reduced the number of Common Shares outstanding to 2,218,810 shares.

At the Effective Time, the aggregate number of Common Shares available for awards under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and the terms of outstanding awards were ratably adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split to 61,413 shares available.

Trading of the Common Shares on Nasdaq commenced on a split-adjusted basis on May 4, 2023 under the existing trading symbol “MDRR.” The new CUSIP number for the Common Shares following the Reverse Stock Split is 58403P303.

The Reverse Stock Split was intended to help the Company regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On May 18, 2023, the Company received written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC stating that the Company had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market because the Company’s Common Shares had a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for ten consecutive business days. ~~Accordingly,~~According to the May 18, 2023 notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, the Listing Qualifications Staff considers the matter closed.

Charter Amendments

In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, on April 19, 2023, the Company filed two Articles of Amendment to its charter with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland that provided for:

(i)a 1-for-8Reverse Stock Split of the Common Shares, effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 3, 2023 (the “First Amendment”); and

(ii)the par value of the Common Shares to be decreased from $0.08 per share (as a result of the 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split) back to $0.01 per share, effective at 5:01 p.m. Eastern Time on May 3, 2023 (the “Second Amendment”).

The foregoing descriptions of the First Amendment and the Second Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to each amendment, copies of which ~~are~~were filed as Exhibit 3.3 and Exhibit 3.4, respectively, to ~~this~~the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ~~(this “Quarterly Report”)~~for the three and ~~are incorporated herein by reference.~~six months ended June 30, 2023.

2018 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) was adopted by the Board on July 27, 2018 and approved by the Company’s shareholders on August 23, 2018. The Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, performance units, incentive awards and other equity-based awards (including LTIP units of the Company’s Operating Partnership) to its employees or an affiliate (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) of the Company and for up to the greater of (i) 30,000 Common Shares and (ii) eight percent (8)% of the number of fully diluted shares of the Company’s Common Shares (taking into account interests in the Operating Partnership that may become convertible into Common Shares).

On March 2, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) approved a grant of 7,500 Common Shares to two employees of the Manager who also served as directors of the Company, a grant of 11,250 Common Shares to the Company’s three independent directors, and a grant of 7,500 Common Shares to the chief financial officer of the Company, under the Equity Incentive Plan. The effective date of the grants was March 2, 2022. The Common Shares granted vested immediately and are unrestricted. However, the Equity Incentive Plan includes other restrictions on the sale of shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plan. Because the Common Shares vested immediately, the fair value of the grants, or $233,100, was recorded to share based compensation expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations on the effective date of the grant. The fair value of the grants was determined by the market price of the Company’s Common Shares on the effective date of the grant.

On November 22, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved a grant of 9,554 Common Shares to two employees of the Manager who also served as directors of the Company, a grant of 14,331 Common Shares to the Company’s three independent directors, a grant of 9,554 Common Shares to the chief financial officer of the Company, and a grant of 6,370 Common Shares to two consultants of the Company, under the Equity Incentive Plan. The effective date of the grants was November 22, 2022. The Common Shares granted vested immediately and are unrestricted. However, the Equity Incentive Plan includes other restrictions on the sale of shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plan. Because the Common Shares vested immediately, the fair value of the grants, or $250,000, was recorded to share based compensation expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations on the effective date of the grant. The fair value of the grants was determined by the market price of the Company’s Common Shares on the effective date of the grant.

On each January 1 during the term of the Equity Incentive Plan, the maximum number of Common Shares that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan will increase by eight percent (8%) of any additional Common Shares or interests in the Operating Partnership issued (i) after the completion date the Company’s initial registered public offering of Common Shares, in the case of the January 1, 2019 adjustment, or (ii) in the preceding calendar year, in the case of any adjustment subsequent to January 1, 2020. As of January 1, 2023, the shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan was adjusted to 61,413 shares.

All Common Share and Operating Partnership Units referenced above have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share for the Company’s Common Shares is calculated by dividing income (loss) from continuing operations, excluding the net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the Company’s weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders, excluding the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the weighted average number of Common

Shares, including any dilutive shares. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022, all of the 26,691 Operating Partnership’s Units held by noncontrolling, limited partners were eligible to be converted, on a one-to-one basis, into Common Shares. The Operating Partnership Units and the equivalent Common Shares attributable to the convertible debentures have been excluded from the Company’s diluted earnings per share calculation because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance

The Company carries comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption and rental loss insurance covering all of the properties in its portfolio, in addition to other coverages that may be appropriate for certain of its properties. Additionally, the Company carries a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers such claims made against the Company and its directors and officers. The Company believes the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate for its properties given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice; however, its insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover its losses.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to risks incidental to the ownership and operation of commercial real estate. These risks include, among others, the risks normally associated with changes in the general economic climate, trends in the retail industry, creditworthiness of tenants, competition for tenants and customers, changes in tax laws, interest rates, the availability of financing and potential liability under environmental and other laws. The Company’s portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions

Table of Contents

and is geographically concentrated in the Mid-Atlantic, specifically in South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia, which represented 100% of the total annualized base revenues of the properties in its portfolio as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023. The Company’s geographic concentration may cause it to be more susceptible to adverse developments in those markets than if it owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Additionally, the Company’s retail shopping center properties depend on anchor stores or major tenants to attract shoppers and could be adversely affected by the loss of, or a store closure by, one or more of these tenants.

~~Table of Contents~~

Interest Rate Risk

The value of the Company’s real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates, which may affect the Company’s ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the value of the Company’s assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, the Company attempts to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, the Company may obtain variable-rate mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate cap agreements that limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate caps are derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted interest payments on the debt obligation. Our objective in using interest rate caps is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all of the Company’s long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was capped to a fixed rate. The Company’s debt obligations are more fully described in Note 5, Loans Payable, above.

Regulatory and Environmental

As the owner of the buildings on its properties, the Company could face liability for the presence of hazardous materials (e.g., asbestos or lead) or other adverse conditions (e.g., poor indoor air quality) in its buildings. Environmental laws govern the presence, maintenance, and removal of hazardous materials in buildings, and if the Company does not comply with such laws, it could face fines for such noncompliance. Also, the Company could be liable to third parties (e.g., occupants of the buildings) for damages related to exposure to hazardous materials or adverse conditions in its buildings, and the Company could incur material expenses with respect to abatement or remediation of hazardous materials or other adverse conditions in its buildings. In addition, some of the Company’s tenants routinely handle and use hazardous or regulated substances and wastes as part of their operations at the Company’s properties, which are subject to regulation. Such environmental and health and safety laws and regulations could subject the Company or its tenants to liability resulting from these activities. Environmental liabilities could affect a tenant’s ability to make rental payments to the Company, and changes in laws could increase the potential liability for noncompliance. This may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise materially and adversely affect the Company’s operations. The Company is not aware of any material contingent liabilities, regulatory matters or environmental matters that may exist.

Litigation

The Company is not currently involved in any litigation or legal proceedings.

Prior to the termination of the Management Agreement, the Manager also received an acquisition fee of 2.0% of the purchase price plus transaction costs, for each property acquired or investment made on the Company’s behalf at the closing of the acquisition of such property or investment, in consideration for the Manager’s assistance in effectuating such acquisition. Acquisition fees are allocated and added to the fair value of the tangible assets acquired and recorded as part of investment properties, net, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Pursuant to a Letter Agreement, dated March 19, 2021, by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager (the “2021 Manager Letter Agreement”), which amended the Management Agreement, the Manager agreed to defer payment of one-half of any acquisition fee payable to the Manager from that date until the earlier of: (i) the date that the public trading price of our common stock, as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market, reaches a closing trading price of at least $5.00 per share (as the same may be proportionately adjusted to reflect a stock split or reverse stock split); (ii) the effective date of the termination of the Management Agreement as the result of an election by the Company to terminate the Management Agreement (other than on account of any of the events specified in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 11(a) of the Management Agreement); and (iii) a Change in Control (the “Deferral Agreement”).

For purposes of calculating the incentive fee during the first years after completion of this offering, adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) will be determined by annualizing the applicable period following completion of this offering. AFFO is calculated by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. The Company further adjusts funds from operations (“FFO”) for certain items that are not added to net income in the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (NAREIT) definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of the Company’s properties, and subtract recurring capital expenditures (and, when calculating the incentive fee only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on real estate investments).

Colin Elliott

Effective as of March 1, 2020, the Company entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”), with Gunston Consulting, LLC (the “Consultant”), pursuant to which the Consultant agreed to provide certain financial and accounting consulting services to the Company, and the Company agreed to pay the Consultant an annual fee and annual stock grants awarded by the Compensation Committee and agreed to reimburse the Consultant for certain expenses to be authorized by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the Company authorized the Consultant to retain the services of Mr. C. Elliott as vice president of the Company and authorized the Consultant to incur certain costs related to Mr. C.

Elliott (the “Change in Control Agreement”), in order to authorize the Consultant to pay Mr. C. Elliott, our Vice President, and to reimburse the Consultant for, the payment of the Elliott Retention Amount (as defined below), in the event that (i) a Change in Control (as defined therein) occurs at a time when Mr. C. Elliott remains employed by the Consultant and no Cause Event (as defined therein) has then occurred and the Consultant thereafter terminates, at the request of the Company (or any successor), the employment of Mr. C.

Elliott’s employment (other than on account of a Cause Event) ninety (90) or fewer days prior to the Change in Control. In each such case, a “Triggering Event” shall be deemed to have occurred, and pursuant to the Change in Control Agreement, the Company authorizes the Consultant to pay, and agrees to reimburse the Consultant for, and the Consultant agrees to pay to Mr. C. Elliott, within thirty-seven (37) days after such Triggering Event, an amount

C. Elliott and reimbursable by the Company, plus (iii) a cash payment equivalent to the value of the last stock grant from the Company to Mr. C. Elliott (i.e., $30,000) (collectively, the “Elliott Retention Amount”).

Mr. C. Elliott is the son of Mr. William R. Elliott, who was, at the time of Mr. C. Elliott’s employment, the Vice Chairman of the Board and President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company paid the Consultant ~~$44,872~~$16,290 and ~~$88,744,~~$105,034, respectively, for services provided by Mr. C. Elliott under the Consulting Agreement. No such payments were made during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. On July 18, 2023, Mr. C. Elliott resigned as Vice President of the Company and as an employee of the Consultant and provided a full release of the Company’s and the Consultant’s obligations under the Change in Control Agreement.

10. Segment Information

The Company establishes operating segments at the property level and aggregates individual properties into reportable segments based on product types in which the Company has investments. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company had the following reportable segments: retail center properties and flex center properties. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had three reportable segments: retail center properties, flex center properties and hotel properties. During the periods presented, there have been no material intersegment transactions.

Although the Company’s flex center property has tenants that are similar to tenants in its retail center properties, the Company considers its flex center properties as a separate reportable segment. Flex properties are considered by the real estate industry as a distinct subset of the industrial market segment. Flex properties contain a mix of industrial/warehouse and office spaces. Warehouse space that is not air conditioned can be used flexibly by building office or showroom space that is air conditioned, depending on tenants’ needs.

Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not considered a measure of operating results or cash flows from operations under GAAP. NOI is the primary performance measure reviewed by management to assess operating performance of properties and is calculated by deducting operating expenses from operating revenues. Operating revenues include rental income, tenant reimbursements, hotel income, and other property income; and operating expenses include retail center property and hotel operating costs. The NOI performance metric consists of only revenues and expenses directly related to real estate rental operations. NOI reflects property acquisitions and dispositions, occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. NOI, as the Company calculates it, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled, but differently calculated, measures for other REITs.

Asset information and capital expenditures by segment are not reported because the Company does not use these measures to assess performance. Depreciation and amortization expense, along with other expense and income items, are not allocated among segments.

~~The following table presents property operating revenues, expenses and NOI by product type:~~

Beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2017, we believe that we have operated in a manner qualifying us as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and we have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Our company serves as the general partner of Medalist Diversified Holdings, LP which was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on September 29, 2015.

Our company was formed to acquire, reposition, renovate, lease and manage income-producing properties, with a primary focus on (i) commercial properties, including flex-industrial and retail properties, (ii) multi-family residential properties and (iii) limited-service hotel properties in secondary and tertiary markets in the southeastern part of the United States, with an expected concentration in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama. We may also pursue, in an opportunistic manner, other real estate-related investments, including, among other things, equity or other ownership interests in entities that are the direct or indirect owners of real property, and indirect investments in real property, such as those that may be obtained in a joint venture. While these types of investments are not intended to be a primary focus, we may make such investments in our discretion. On October 6, 2023, our company released a letter from our then interim CEO and President which included an announcement that our company plans to start evaluating options to create stand-alone, single tenant net lease assets from our existing portfolio and to explore the acquisition of single tenant net lease assets outside of our existing portfolio. We are still evaluating these options and plan to continue to provide updates when appropriate.

(a)

The mortgage loan for the Franklin Square Property in the principal amount of $13,250,000 has a ten-year term and matures on December 6, 2031. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.808% and is interest only until January 6, 2025, at which time the monthly payment will become $61,800, which includes interest and principal based on a thirty-year amortization schedule. The mortgage includes covenants for our company to maintain a net worth of $13,250,000, excluding the assets and liabilities associated with the Franklin Square Property and to maintain liquid assets of no less than $1,000,000.

Our company has guaranteed the payment and performance of the obligations of the mortgage loan.

(b)

The mortgage loan for the Hanover Square Property bore interest at a fixed rate of 4.25% until January 1, 2023, when the interest rate adjusted to a fixed rate of 6.94%, which was determined by adding 3.00% to the daily average yield on United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of five years, as made available by the Federal Reserve Board, with a minimum of 4.25%.

The mortgage loan for the Brookfield Property bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.90% and is interest only for the first twelve months. Beginning on November 1, 2020, the monthly payment became $22,876 for the remaining term of the loan, which includes interest at the fixed rate, and principal, based on a thirty-year amortization schedule.

(e)

The interest rate for the mortgage loan for the Parkway Property was originally based on ICE LIBOR plus 225 basis points, with a minimum rate of 2.25%~~, plus 225 basis points.~~. After the discontinuation of LIBOR on June 30, 2023, the ICE LIBOR index was replaced by 1 month CME Term SOFR (“SOFR”), with an adjusted margin of 236.44 basis points. Under the terms of the mortgage, the interest rate payable each month shall not change by greater than 1% during any six-month period and 2% during any 12-month period. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the rate in effect for the Parkway Property mortgage was 6.05% and 4.3117%, respectively. The monthly payment, which varies based on the interest rate in effect each month, includes interest at the variable rate, and principal based on a thirty-year amortization schedule. The mortgage loan for the Parkway Property includes a covenant to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of not less than ~~1.60~~1.30 to 1.00 on an annual basis.

On October 28, 2021, our company entered into the Interest Rate Protection Transaction to limit our exposure to increases in interest rates on the variable rate mortgage loan on the Parkway Property. Under this agreement, our interest rate exposure is capped at 5.25% if USD 1-Month ICE LIBOR exceeds 3%. Effective on July 1, 2023, the interest rate index under the Interest Rate Protection Transaction automatically converted to SOFR. For the period from September 1, 2022 through ~~June~~September 30, 2023, ~~LIBOR~~the applicable index (LIBOR or SOFR), exceeded the 3%, cap, and payments from the Interest Rate Protection Transaction reduced our company’s net interest expense. Payments to our company from the Interest Rate Protection Transaction are recorded as an offset to interest expense on our company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023. No such payments were received during the three and nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 because the LIBOR rate in effect did not exceed the LIBOR cap.

(f)

On June 13, 2022, our company entered into a mortgage loan facility with Wells Fargo Bank (the “Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility”) in the principal amount of $18,609,500. The proceeds of this mortgage were used to finance the acquisition of the Salisbury Marketplace Property and to refinance the mortgages payable on the Lancer Center Property and the Greenbrier Business Center Property (see notes (g) and (h), below). The Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.50% for a five-year term. The monthly payment, which includes interest at the fixed rate, and principal, based on a ~~twenty-five -year~~twenty-five-year amortization schedule, is $103,438. Our company has provided an unconditional guaranty of the payment of and performance under the terms of the Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility. The Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility credit agreement includes covenants to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.00 on an annual basis and a minimum debt yield of 9.5% on the Salisbury Marketplace, Lancer Center and Greenbrier Business Center properties, and to maintain liquid assets of not less than $1,500,000. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, our company believes that we are compliant with these covenants.

Our company refinanced the mortgage loan for the Lancer Center Property using proceeds from the Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility discussed above. Our company accounted for this refinancing transaction under debt extinguishment accounting in accordance with ASC 470, and for the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2023,~~2022 recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $113,282. The original mortgage loan for the Lancer Center Property bore interest at a fixed rate of 4.00%. The monthly payment was $34,667 which includes interest at the fixed rate and principal, based on a twenty-five-year amortization schedule.

Our company refinanced the mortgage loan for the Greenbrier Business Center Property, using proceeds from the Wells Fargo Mortgage Facility discussed above. Our company accounted for this refinancing transaction under debt extinguishment accounting in accordance with ASC 470, and for the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2023,~~2022, recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $56,393. Our company assumed the original mortgage loan for the Greenbrier Business Center Property from the seller. The original mortgage loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 4.00% and would have been interest only until August 1, 2022, at which time the monthly payment would have become $23,873, which would have included interest at the fixed rate, and principal, based on a twenty-five-year amortization schedule.

~~COVID-19 Impact~~

Since March 2020, our company’s investment properties have been significantly impacted by (i) measures taken by local, state and federal authorities to mitigate the impact of COVID-19, such as mandatory business closures, quarantines, restrictions on travel and “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders and (ii) significant changes in consumer behavior and business and leisure travel patterns. While most of the measures have been relaxed by the respective governmental authorities, with the uncertainty resulting from the

~~Table of Contents~~

continued mutation of COVID-19 into new variants and the possibility of the re-imposition of mandatory business closures, quarantines, restrictions on travel and “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders by some governmental authorities, and the possibility that changes in consumer behavior will continue and consumer demand for the goods and services of our retail tenants within our portfolio could continue to be significant in future periods. These factors, as well as additional factors that our company may not currently be aware of, could materially negatively impact our company’s ability to collect rent and could lead to termination of leases by tenants, tenant bankruptcies, decreases in demand for retail space at our company’s properties, difficulties in accessing capital, impairment of our company’s long-lived assets and other impacts that could materially and adversely affect our company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and ability to pay distributions to stockholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, or different assumptions were made, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, resulting in different financial results or a different presentation of our financial statements. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider critical to an understanding of our financial condition and operating results that may require complex or significant judgment in their application or require estimates about matters which are inherently uncertain. A discussion of our significant accounting policies, including further discussion of the accounting policies described below, can be found in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

Principal components of our total revenues for our retail center properties and flex center properties include base rents and tenant reimbursements. We accrue minimum (base) rent on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases which results in an unbilled rent asset or deferred rent liability being recorded on the balance sheet. Certain lease agreements contain provisions that grant additional rents based on tenants’ sales volumes (contingent or percentage rent) which we recognize when the tenants achieve the specified targets as defined in their lease agreements. We periodically review the valuation of the asset/liability resulting from the straight-line accounting treatment of our leases in light of any changes in lease terms, financial condition or other factors concerning our tenants.

For the periods during which our company owned its hotel properties, revenues were recognized as earned, which is generally defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel’s services. Revenues from our company’s occupancy agreement with Clemson University were recognized as earned, which is as rooms were occupied by the University.

Rents and Other Tenant Receivables

For our retail center and flex center properties, we record a tenant receivable for amounts due from tenants such as base rents, tenant reimbursements and other charges allowed under the lease terms. We periodically review tenant receivables for collectability and determine the need for an allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rents and other accounts receivable based upon customer creditworthiness (including expected recovery of a claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels and current economic trends. We consider a receivable past due once it becomes delinquent per the terms of the lease. A past due receivable triggers certain events such as notices, fees and other actions per the lease.

Accounting for Leases

Our company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach within ASU 2018-11, which allows for the application date to be the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the new standard. Our company historically has not been and is not currently a “lessee” under any lease

~~Table of Contents~~

agreements, and thus did not have any arrangements requiring the recognition of lease assets or liabilities on its balance sheet. As a “lessor”, our company has active lease agreements with over ~~100~~130 tenants across our portfolio of investment properties.

Upon the adoption of ASC No. 842, our company has elected the practical expedient permitting lessors to elect by class of underlying asset to not separate non-lease components (for example, maintenance services, including common area maintenance) from associated lease components (the “non-separation practical expedient”) if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and non-lease component(s) are the same and (2) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If both criteria are met, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 842 if the lease component is the predominant component of the combined component; otherwise, the combined component is accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition standard. Our company assessed the criteria above with respect to our operating leases and determined that they qualify for the non-separation practical expedient. As a result, we have accounted for and presented the revenues from these leases, including tenant reimbursements, as a single line item on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Acquisition of Investments in Real Estate

The adoption of ASU 2017-01, as discussed in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report, has impacted our accounting framework for the acquisition of investment properties. Upon acquisition of investment properties, our company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, buildings and improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment) and identified intangible assets and liabilities, including in-place leases, above- and below-market leases, tenant relationships and assumed debt based on evaluation of information and estimates available at that date. Fair values for these assets are not directly observable and estimates are based on comparable market data and other information which is subjective in nature, including estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information.

Table of Contents

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We periodically review investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis to identify any events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. If any such events or changes in circumstances are identified, we perform a formal impairment analysis. We measure any impairment of investment property when the estimated undiscounted operating income before depreciation and amortization, is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, we charge to income the excess of carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. We estimate fair value using data such as operating income, estimated capitalization rates or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. Our company also reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually.

REIT Status

We are a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a REIT. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for the year ended December 31, 2017 and have not revoked such election. A REIT is a corporate entity which holds real estate interests and must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to stockholders. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on our taxable income if we annually distribute 100% of our taxable income to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to regular federal and state corporate income taxes and may not be able to elect to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Our qualification as a REIT requires management to exercise significant judgment and consideration with respect to operational matters and accounting treatment. Therefore, we believe our REIT status is a critical accounting estimate.

Evaluation of our company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, our company is required to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether or not the entity’s current financial condition, including its sources of liquidity at the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, will enable the entity to meet its obligations as they come due arising within one year of the date of the issuance of our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and to make a determination as to whether or not

~~Table of Contents~~

it is probable, under the application of this accounting guidance, that the entity will be able to continue as a going concern. Our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. In applying applicable accounting guidance, management considered our company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our company’s obligations due over the next twelve months, as well as our company’s recurring business operating expenses.

We have concluded that it is probable that we will be able to meet our obligations arising within one year of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within the parameters set forth in the accounting guidance. For additional information regarding our company’s liquidity, see Note 5 – Loans Payable and Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to our company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our business model is intended to drive growth through acquisitions. Access to the capital markets is an important factor for our continued growth and success. Our primary liquidity needs are funding for (1) operations, including operating expenses, corporate and administrative costs, payment of principal of, and interest on, outstanding indebtedness, and escrow and reserve payments associated with long-term debt financing for our properties; (2) investing needs, including property acquisitions and recurring capital expenditures; and (3) financing needs, including cash dividends and debt repayments.

Internal liquidity to fund operating needs are expected to be provided primarily by the rental receipts from our retail and flex center properties.

Cash Flows

At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, our consolidated cash and restricted cash on hand totaled ~~$4,807,699~~$4,750,156 compared to consolidated cash on hand of ~~$5,777,963~~$6,973,084 at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Cash from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

Operating Activities

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 our cash provided by operating activities was ~~$862,923~~$415,603 compared to cash provided by operating activities of ~~$1,573,772~~$1,673,481 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, a decrease in cash provided by operating activities of ~~$710,849.~~$1,257,878.

Cash flows from operating activities has two components. The first component consists of net operating loss adjusted for non-cash operating activities. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, operating activities adjusted for non-cash items resulted in net cash used in operating activities of $432,710. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, operating activities adjusted for non-cash items resulted in net cash provided by operating activities of $334,789. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, operating activities adjusted for non-cash items resulted in net cash provided in operating activities of $1,015,785. The decrease of $680,996 in cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily a result of increased legal, accounting and other professional fees resulting from the exploration of strategic alternatives announced by our Board of Directors on March 10, 2023, of $393,425, and a decrease in operating income of $415,537 resulting from the sale of the Clemson Best Western Hotel on September 29, 2022. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Clemson Best Western Hotel generated $22,908 and $415,537, respectively, in operating income. Since our company sold the Clemson Best Western Hotel on September 29, 2022, no operating income was generated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.$1,113,651.

The second component consists of changes in assets and liabilities. Increases in assets and decreases in liabilities result in cash used in operations. Decreases in assets and increases in liabilities result in cash provided by operations. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, net changes in asset and liability accounts resulted in ~~$528,134~~$848,313 in cash provided by operations. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, net changes in asset and liability accounts resulted in ~~$557,987~~$559,830 in cash provided by operations. This ~~decrease~~increase of ~~$29,853~~$288,483 in cash provided by operations resulting from changes in assets and liabilities is a result of ~~increased~~decreased changes in other assets of ~~$209,180~~$64,168, unbilled rent of $27,915 and ~~increased~~ rent and other receivables of ~~$7,100, offset by decreased~~$46,408, and increased changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of ~~$230,049, and decreased changes in unbilled rent of $16,084.~~$149,992.

Future Liquidity Needs

Liquidity for general operating needs and our company’s investment properties is generally provided by the rental receipts from our retail properties and flex center ~~property,~~properties, and revenues from our hotel properties, if any. We expect to provide any liquidity for growth (acquisition of new investment properties) by raising additional investment capital. In addition, our company continually reviews and evaluates its outstanding mortgages payable for refinancing opportunities. While some of our mortgages payable are not pre-payable, some mortgages payable may present opportunities for refinancing.

~~In addition to the $1.25 million termination fee and $352,717 deferred acquisition fee payable under the Termination Agreement on July 25, 2023, the~~The primary, non-operating liquidity need of our company is ~~$70,004~~$170,004 to pay the accrued but undeclared dividends to holders of our mandatorily redeemable preferred and ~~$527,271~~$268,067 in principal payments due on its mortgages payable during the remaining ~~six~~three months ending December 31, 2023. In addition to liquidity required to fund these dividends and principal payments, we may also incur some level of capital expenditures for our existing properties that cannot be passed on to our tenants. Our company plans to pay these obligations through a combination of cash on hand, potential dispositions and operating cash.

As discussed above, the continuing COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has adversely impacted states and cities where our company’s tenants operate their businesses and where our company’s properties are located. The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as the reduced economic activity severely impacts certain of our company’s tenants’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause certain tenants to be unable to meet their obligations to our company in full. Closures of stores operated by our company’s tenants could reduce our company’s cash flows.

To meet these future liquidity needs, ~~we have~~our company has the following resources:

Funds from Operations

We use funds from operations (“FFO”), a non-GAAP measure, as an alternative measure of our operating performance, specifically as it relates to results of operations and liquidity. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board

Table of Contents

of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999, April 2002 and December 2018). As defined by NAREIT, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs and above and below market leases) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

~~Table of Contents~~

Most industry analysts and equity REITs, including us, consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions and excluding depreciation, FFO is a helpful tool that can assist in the comparison of the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods, or as compared to different companies. Management uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate our business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income alone as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while historically real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Accordingly, we believe FFO provides a valuable alternative measurement tool to GAAP when presenting our operating results.

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper states, “FFO of a REIT includes the FFO of all consolidated properties, including consolidated, partially owned affiliates”. Additionally, since the adjustments to GAAP net income, such as depreciation and amortization, used in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to determine FFO are not allocated between shareholders and noncontrolling interests (i.e. 100% of depreciation and amortization are “added back” without reduction to reflect the noncontrolling owners’ interest in such items), our company believes that the appropriate starting point for the calculation is the net income (loss) before allocation to noncontrolling interests. This allows our company to use FFO as a tool to measure the overall performance of its investment properties, as a whole, not just the portion of the investment properties controlled by our company’s shareholders.

Below is our company’s FFO, which is a non-GAAP measurement, for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022:

Amortization of leasing commissions paid for the retail center properties and flex center property subsequent to the acquisition of the properties.

(4)

Amortization of (i) intangible assets acquired as part of the purchase of the retail center properties and flex center property, including leasing commissions, leases in place and legal and marketing costs.

(5)

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper provides guidance for the treatment of impairment write-downs. Specifically, “To the extent there is an impairment write-down of depreciable real estate … related to a REIT’s main business, the write-down is excluded from FFO (i.e., adjusted from net income in calculating FFO).” Additionally, NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper provides guidance on gains or losses on the sale of assets, stating “the REIT has the option to include or exclude such gains and losses in the calculation of FFO.”

Table of Contents

(6)

Consistent with the treatment of impairment write-downs, our company includes an adjustment for its loss on extinguishment of debt.

NAREIT’s December 2018 White Paper encourages companies reporting FFO to “make supplemental disclosure of all material non-cash revenues and expenses affecting their results for each period.” We believe that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by our operating portfolio and affect the

~~Table of Contents~~

comparability of our period-over-period performance. These items include non-cash items such as amortization of loans and above and below market leases, unbilled rent arising from applying straight line rent revenue recognition and share-based compensation expenses. Additionally, the impact of capital expenditures, including tenant improvement and leasing commissions, net of reimbursements of such expenditures by property escrow funds, is included in our calculation of AFFO. Therefore, in addition to FFO, management uses Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”), which we define to exclude such items. Management believes that these adjustments are appropriate in determining AFFO as their exclusion is not indicative of the operating performance of our assets. In addition, we believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to use in comparing us to other REITs as many REITs provide some form of adjusted or modified FFO. However, there can be no assurance that AFFO presented by us is comparable to the adjusted or modified FFO of other REITs.

Total AFFO for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 was as follows:

Our company has elected to include non-cash revenues (debt forgiveness) and non-cash expenses (bad debt expense) in its calculation of AFFO.
