PROXY STATEMENT

The Board of Directors of Portsmouth Square, Inc. (the “Company” or “Portsmouth”) is soliciting proxies in the form enclosed with this proxy statement in connection with the 20172018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held February 27, 201828, 2019 or at any adjournment or adjournments thereof (the "Annual Meeting").

This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being sent to shareholders on or about January 25, 2018.18, 2019. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 201731, 2018 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.

If you give us a proxy, you can revoke it at any time before it is used. To revoke it, you may file a written notice revoking it with the Secretary of the Company, execute a proxy card with a later date or attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person.

You may vote at the Annual Meeting only shares of the Company's common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Stock"), that you owned of record on December 29, 2017.31, 2018. There were 734,183 shares of Common Stock outstanding on that date. A majority, or 367,092 of those shares will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote on each matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting. Unless cumulative voting is elected as described under “Election of Directors” below, the affirmative vote of the holders of the majority of the shares of the Common stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required to elect directors, to ratify the retention of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, and to ratify or approve the other proposals being voted on at this time.

The proxies named in the accompanying proxy card will vote the shares represented thereby if the proxy appears to be valid on its face, and where specification is indicated as provided in such proxy, the shares represented will be voted in accordance with such specification. If no specification is made, the shares represented by the proxies will be voted: (1) FOR the election of fourfive directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting; and (2) FOR retention of the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.2019.

In addition to mailing this material to shareholders, the Company has asked banks and brokers to forward copies to persons for whom they hold shares of Common Stock of the Company and to request authority or the execution of proxies. The Company will reimburse banks and brokers for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in doing so. Officers of the Company may, without being additionally compensated, solicit proxies by mail, telephone, telegram or personal contact. All proxy soliciting expenses will be paid by the Company. The Company does not expect to employ anyone else to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

PROPOSAL NO. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s Board of Directors presently consists of four directors. We propose to elect a total of fourfive directors, each to hold office until we have the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or, if earlier, until their successors are elected and qualified. The Board of Directors has nominated John V. Winfield, Jerold R. Babin, John C. Love, and William J. Nance.Nance, and Yvonne L. Murphy. The person(s) named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote it for the election of the nominees listed below unless you instruct him otherwise, or a nominee is unwilling to serve. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will not serve, if elected. However, in that event, the proxy may vote for another candidate or candidates nominated by the Board of Directors. The California Corporations Code, as applicable to the Company, provides that a shareholder may cumulate votes if a shareholder gives notice, prior to the voting, of an intention to cumulate votes. If such a notice is given, every shareholder may cumulate votes. Cumulating votes means that you can take the total number of votes you have for all directors and distribute them among one or more nominees as you see fit. For example, assume you have 100 shares. We have fourfive directors so you have a total of 45 x 100 = 400500 votes. You could give all 400500 votes to one person or 200250 votes to each of two nominees, or 100 votes to each of fourfive nominees. You can use this power only under the circumstances described herein. If cumulative voting is elected, the enclosed form of proxy gives the proxy discretion to cumulate votes so that he can elect the maximum possible number of the nominees identified below.

Any shareholder executing the enclosed form of proxy may withhold authority to vote for any one or more nominees by so indicating in the manner described in the form of proxy. However, the number of votes authorized by the form of proxy card will not be affected and the named proxies could probably offset any such action by using cumulative voting if they thought it necessary. Under the California Corporations Code, any shareholder or any person who claims to have been denied the right to vote may apply to a state superior court for a determination of the validity of any election or appointment of any director.

BOARD AND COMMITTEE INFORMATION

Board of Directors

Portsmouth is an unlisted company and a "smaller reporting company" under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). and its common stock is traded on the OTC Market’s OTCQB. The majority of its Board of Directors consists of “independent” directors. In order for a director to be considered “independent” by the Board of Directors, he or she must (i) be free of any relationship that, applying the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"), would preclude a finding of independence, and (ii) not have any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates or any of our executive officers. The Board of Directors held fourtwo meetings during the 20172018 fiscal year (in person, telephonically or by written consent). No director attended (whether in person, telephonically, or by written consent) less than 75% of all meetings held during the period of time he or she served as director during the 20172018 fiscal year.

Board Leadership Structure

The Chairman of the Board, Mr. Winfield, also serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that combining the Chairman and Chief Executive officer roles is the most appropriate structure for the Company at this time because (i) this structure has had a longstanding history with the Company, which the Board believes has served our shareholders well through many economic cycles and business challenges; (ii) the Board believes Mr. Winfield’s unique business experience and history with the Company makes it appropriate for him to serve in both capacities; and (iii) the Board believes its corporate governance processes and committee structures preserve Board independence by promoting independent discussions among directors and independent evaluation of, and communications with, members of senior management such that separation of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles is unnecessary at this time.

The Board of Directors has not established a formal process for security holders to send communications to the Board of Directors and the Board has not deemed it necessary to establish such a procedure at this time. Historically, almost all communications that the Company receives from security holders are administrative in nature and are not directed to the Board of Directors. If the Company should receive a security holder communication directed to the Board of Directors, or to an individual director, said communication will be relayed to the Board of Directors or the individual director as the case may be.

The Company does not have any formal policy with regard to Board members attendance at Annual Meetings of Shareholders but encourages each director to attend such meetings. All of the Company’s directors attended the fiscal 20162017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Committees

Portsmouth has established two committees, an Audit Committee (the "Audit Committee") and a Securities Investment Committee (the "Securities Investment Committee"). The Company does not have any standing nominating or compensation committee of the Board of Directors. Given the small size of the Board of Directors and the fact that approximately 88.9% of its voting securities are controlled by management, the Company believes that it is appropriate for the entire Board of Directors to participate in the consideration of director nominees. New director nominations by shareholders, if any, will be considered and determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion. The Company has no policy or procedure with regard to consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders. As a smaller reporting company that has approximately 88.9% of its voting securities controlled by management, the Company has not deemed it appropriate to institute such a policy, since any nominee that is unacceptable to the Board of Directors would be unlikely to ever be elected.

Executive compensation is determined by the independent members of the Board. In order for a director to be considered “independent” by the Board of Directors, he or she must (i) be free of any relationship that, applying the rules of NASDAQ, would preclude a finding of independence, and (ii) not have any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates or any of our executive officers. The Board seeks to design and set compensation to attract and retain highly qualified executive officers and to align their interests with those of long-term owners of the Company. The Board has not engaged any compensation consultants in determining the amount or form of executive or director compensation, but does review and monitor published compensation surveys and studies. No officer or employee (or former officer or employee) of the Company participated in deliberations of the Board concerning such officer or employee’s compensation. The Board may delegate to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer the authority to determine the compensation of certain executive officers.

Audit Committee. Portsmouth is an unlisted company and smaller reporting company under SEC rules. The Audit Committee is currently comprised of members Nance (Chairperson) and Love, each of whom are independent directors in accordance with Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Each of these directors also meets the audit committee financial expert test based on their qualifications and business experience discussed above. The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing: the financial reports provided by the Company to any governmental body or the public; the Company’s system of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, legal compliance and ethics that management and the Board have established; and the Company’s auditing, accounting and financial processes generally. The Audit Committee is responsible for the selection and retention of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee held four meetings during the 20172018 fiscal year. The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of that written charter, as amended, is posted on the Portsmouth page of InterGroup’s website (www.intgla.com).

Securities Investment Committee. On March 17, 1998, the Company established the Securities Investment Committee to establish guidelines for and to review the Company’s investment policies. The Securities Investment Committee consists of all of the directors of the Company, John V. Winfield (Chair), John C. Love and William J. Nance. During fiscal year 2017,2018, the Securities Investment Committee did not hold anyheld three meetings.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics (the "Code of Ethics") that applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the Code of Ethics is posted on the Portsmouth page of InterGroup's website (www.intgla.com). The Company will provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of its Code of Ethics by sending such request to: Portsmouth Square, Inc., Attn: Treasurer, 1100 Glendon Avenue,11620 Wilshire Blvd., Suite PH1,350, Los Angeles, CA 90024.90025. The Company will promptly disclose any amendments or waivers to its Code of Ethics on Form 8-K and will post such information on its website.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and each beneficial owner of more than ten percent of the Common Stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by the Company, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were required for those persons, the Company believes that during fiscal 20172018 all filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors, and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Internal Revenue Code Limitations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provides that, in the case of a publicly held corporation, the corporation is not generally allowed to deduct remuneration paid to its chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated officers to the extent that such remuneration exceeds $1,000,000 for the taxable year. Certain remuneration, however, is not subject to disallowance, including compensation paid on a commission basis and, if certain requirements prescribed by the Code are satisfied, other performance based compensation. For fiscal years 2017 and 2016, no compensation paid by the Company to Mr. Winfield or other executive officers was subject to the deduction disallowance prescribed by Section 162(m) of the Code.

SHAREHOLDER ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

At its fiscal 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on March 3, 2017, the Company submitted to its shareholders two proposals regarding executive compensation. The first proposal to approve, in a non-binding vote, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers was approved by the shareholders, having received more than 99% of the shares voted at the meeting in favor of the proposal. The second proposal was to determine, in a non-binding vote, whether a shareholder advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s executive officers should occur every one, two or three years. The shareholders overwhelmingly voted in favor of three years as the frequency in which the Company should have an advisory vote on executive compensation with more than 99% of the shares voted at the meeting being in favor of three years. The Board of Directors considered the guidance provided by those advisory votes and set three years as the frequency in which it will have a non-binding vote on executive compensation.

The Board of Directors will continue to focus on responsible executive compensation practices that attract, motivate and retain high performance executives, reward those executives for the achievement of long-term performance and support our other executive compensation objectives.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Each director of the Company is paid a Board retainer fee of $1,500 per quarter for a total annual compensation of $6,000. This policy has been in effect since July 1, 1985.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

RATIFICATION OF THE RETENTION OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed the firm of Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.2019. Although the action of shareholders in this matter is not required, the Audit Committee believes it is appropriate to seek shareholder ratification of this appointment. Ratification requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voted at the Annual Meeting.

We expect that a representative of Moss Adams LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders, and we will provide this representative with an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so.

THE FOLLOWING REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE SOLICITING MATERIAL OR TO BE FILED WITH THE SEC UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR THE EXCHANGE ACT OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN ANY DOCUMENT SO FILED.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee’s responsibilities are described in a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to: serve as an independent and objective party to monitor the Company’s financial reporting process and internal control system; appoint and approve the compensation of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; review and appraise the audit efforts of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; and provide an open avenue of communications among the independent registered public accounting firm, financial and senior management, and the Board of Directors. During fiscal year ended June 30, 2017,2018, the Company retained Burr Pilger Mayer, Inc. (“BPM”) and Moss AdamsHein & Associates LLP (“Moss Adams”Hein”) as its independent registered public accounting firmsfirm to provide audit and audit related services. Effective November 16, 2017, Hein combined with Moss Adams LLP (“Moss Adams”). As a result of this transaction, on November 16, 2017, Hein resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. Concurrent with such resignation, the Company’s audit committee approved the engagement of Moss Adams as the new independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. All fees and expenses paid to BPMHein and Moss Adams were approved by the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms, and management represented to the Audit Committee that the consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The discussions with BPMHein and Moss Adams also included the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 114 (AICPA,Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU Section 380), as adopted by theU.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB")in Rule 3200T regarding “Communication with Audit Committees.”

The Audit Committee has also received written disclosures and letters from BPMHein and Moss Adams, respectively, as required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, which was also discussed with BPMHein and Moss Adams, respectively.

Based on the Audit Committee’s review of the audited financial statements, and the review and discussions with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firmsfirm referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Company’s Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20172018 for filing with the SEC.
