+Added: Real Estate Development – Impairment Indicators – Refer to Notes 2, 5, 7 and 8 to the financial statements
+Added: Critical Audit Matter Description
+Added: The Company’s evaluation of real estate development, as held by the Company or as included specifically within its investment in Limoneira Lewis Community Builders, LLC (“LLCB”) , for impairment involves an initial assessment of each real estate
+Added: development to determine whether events or changes in circumstances exist that may indicate that the carrying amounts of, or investment in, real estate development are no longer recoverable.
+Added: Possible indications of impairment may include events or changes in circumstances affecting the entitlement process, zoning, government regulation, geographical demand for new housing or commercial property, and market conditions related to pricing of residential or commercial land lots.
+Added: When events or changes in circumstances exist, the Company further evaluates the real estate development for impairment by a) comparing undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the real estate development to the respective carrying amount for its own real estate development or b) determining if its equity in investment has incurred an other-than-temporary decline.
+Added: The Company makes significant judgments in evaluating real estate development for possible indications of impairment.
+Added: These judgments may relate to the identification of appropriate and comparable market prices, the consideration of changes to legal factors or the business climate, the likelihood of successfully completing the entitlement process, changes in zoning or government regulation, and demand for new housing.
+Added: Changes in these judgments could have a significant impact on real estate development.
+Added: Real estate development assets were $22,828,000, and equity in investment in LLCB was $60,216,000 as of October 31, 2021.
+Added: For the year ended October 31, 2021, no impairment loss has been recognized on any real estate development and no other-than-temporary-impairment has been recognized on the Company’s equity in LLCB.
+Added: We identified the management judgments used in the determination of impairment indicators for real estate development as a critical audit matter due to their significance and because of the subjectivity used by management when determining whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred indicating that the carrying amounts of, or investment in, real estate development may not be recoverable.
+Added: This required a high degree of auditor judgment when performing audit procedures to evaluate whether management appropriately identified impairment indicators.
+Added: How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
+Added: Our audit procedures related to the evaluation of real estate development for possible indications of impairment included the following, among others:
+Added: • We tested the effectiveness of the controls over management’s identification of possible circumstances that may indicate that real estate development is no longer recoverable, including controls over management’s evaluation of the entitlement process, litigation, changes in zoning, government regulation, geographical demand for new housing or commercial property and market conditions related to pricing of residential or commercial land lots.
+Added: ▪ We evaluated management’s impairment analysis by:
+Added: ◦ Searching for adverse asset-specific and/or market conditions by reviewing publicly available information on home values and land values in the surrounding regions of the development, periodicals and news information relating to the Southern California housing market, other independent market data, including considerations of the demand for housing in the market and changes to comparable home prices
+Added: ◦ Obtaining information from legal counsel and performing inquiries with management in order to evaluate any changes in the status of litigation matters affecting the development properties and the potential impact on the ability to recover the accumulated costs, including any relevant government regulations and/or other matters impacting the entitlement process
+Added: ◦ With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated comparable land sales for both commercial and residential lots in the area as well as cost to develop residential lot information and compared it to information used by management
+Added: ◦ Developing an independent expectation of impairment indicators and comparing such expectation to management’s analysis
