We have formed strategic relationships as part of our overall strategy for particular development projects and may enter into other similar arrangements in the future.

On September 21, 2020, our Board of Directors (Board) announced its approval of the initiation of an in-depth exploration of a conversion from a C-Corporation to a real estate investment trust (REIT).

We have engaged financial, tax, accounting and legal advisors, and the Board will closely monitor and evaluate the findings to ultimately determine if conversion to a REIT is in the best interest of our shareholders.

If the Board determines to move forward, we expect the conversion would likely occur in 2022.

At this time, we believe that the REIT conversion would require consent from our major lenders and amendments to our major loan agreements, among other third-party consents.

We also expect to seek shareholder approval to implement provisions in our

organizational documents consistent with a public REIT structure, if the Board ultimately determines that a REIT conversion is in shareholders’ best interests.

As part of this assessment, we are also conducting a comprehensive review of our governance practices and Board composition to ensure we have access to the appropriate expertise and mix of skillsets moving forward.

We expect to provide further information after we complete our evaluation.

We may add directors to replace recent departures, prior to completing our overall review.

See “Cautionary Statement” below.

OVERVIEW OF THE IMPACTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Since January 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak has caused substantial disruption in international and U.S.

economies and markets, intensifying in the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 and continuing during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2020, and its impact is expected to continue beyond the third quarter of 2020.

economies and markets, intensifying in the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 and continuing through and subsequent to the third quarter of 2020, and its impact is expected to continue beyond 2020.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic.

The pandemic has resulted in government restrictions of various degrees and effective at various times, including stay-at-home orders, bans on

travel, limitations on the size of gatherings, limitations on the operations of businesses deemed non-essential, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses, cancellation of events (including entertainment events, conferences and meetings), quarantines and social distancing measures.

The pandemic has resulted in government restrictions of various degrees and effective at various times, including stay-at-home orders, bans on travel, limitations on the size of gatherings, limitations on the operations of businesses deemed non-essential, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses, cancellation of events (including entertainment events, conferences and meetings), quarantines and social distancing measures.

For example, on March 6, 2020, the annual South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas was cancelled, on July 1, 2020, the annual Austin City Limits music festival in Austin, Texas was cancelled, and on July 24, 2020, the Formula 1 U.S.

The pandemic and responses to it have also caused a steep increase in unemployment in the U.S.

As a result, the pandemic is having, and we believe will continue to have, a significant adverse impact on our business and operations, as discussed further below.

State and local governments in Texas have implemented phased reopening processes, often with reduced capacity and social distancing restrictions.

Beginning in mid-June 2020, there have been reports of increasing numbers of new COVID-19 cases throughout the United States, and in particular, Texas, resulting in some governments extending or re-imposing restrictions.

As a result, the pandemic is having, and we believe will continue to have, a significant adverse impact on our business and operations, particularly on the hotel and entertainment segments, as discussed further below.

The pandemic remains complex and rapidly-evolving.

For example, in June 2020, the city of Austin extended its Stay-at-Home order through August 15, 2020.

On July 24, 2020, the city of Austin extended the moratorium on evictions through September 30, 2020.

State and local governments in Texas have implemented phased reopening processes, often with reduced capacity and social distancing restrictions.

Recently, there have been reports of increasing numbers of new COVID-19 cases throughout the United States, and in particular, Texas, resulting in some governments extending or re-imposing restrictions.

For example, in June 2020, the city of Austin extended its Stay Home, Mask and Otherwise Be Safe Order through December 15, 2020.

On September 30, 2020, the city of Austin extended the moratorium on certain evictions through December 31, 2020.

Because the pandemic is unprecedented in recent history, and its severity, duration and future economic consequences are difficult to predict, we cannot predict its future impact on our company with any certainty.

Impacts on our Business

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are deferring progress on development projects, including our previously disclosed Magnolia Place project, pending improvements in health and market conditions, but we continue to advance our land planning, engineering and permitting activities.

Many of our retail leasing tenants, other than grocery and liquor stores, closed or were operating at significantly reduced capacity beginning late in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2020.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to advance our land planning, engineering and permitting activities.

We have implemented measures such as increased sanitizing, physical distancing and remote work arrangements, with the goal of protecting employees, tenants, guests, customers and suppliers.

Losses resulting from the pandemic contributed to us recording a $9.6 million non-cash tax charge in third-quarter 2020 to record a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

Refer to Note 8 for further discussion.

Many of our retail leasing tenants, other than grocery and liquor stores, closed or have been operating at significantly reduced capacity since late in the first quarter of 2020.

Beginning in April 2020, we agreed, generally, to 90-day base rent deferrals with a majority of these tenants.

The deferred rents are expected to be collected over a 12-month or 24-month period starting in January 2021.

These rent deferrals resulted in a reduction of scheduled base rent collections of 23 percent during the second quarter.

As of June 30, 2020, most of our retail tenants had reopened.

At our multi-family properties, we have granted rent deferral accommodations on a case-by-case basis, which during the second quarter of 2020 resulted in a reduction of scheduled rent collections of less than one percent of contractual rents, with no material decline in occupancy.

In the aggregate, our second-quarter 2020 retail and multi-family rent collections were 10 percent less than scheduled rents.

We also terminated one lease during second-quarter 2020 and recorded charges related to this lease totaling $1.3 million, primarily related to uncollectible rents receivable and unrealizable deferred costs.

Subsequently, in July 2020, we entered into a new lease agreement with this tenant.

Our revenue, operating income and cash flow from our hotel and entertainment segments were adversely impacted in the second quarter of 2020 and are expected to continue to be adversely impacted beyond second-quarter 2020.

For example, while our hotel has remained open throughout the pandemic, average occupancy in the second quarter of 2020 was 12 percent, with June having the highest occupancy in the second quarter, averaging 22 percent.

The average occupancy during July 2020 was 10 percent.

We have implemented measures such as increased sanitizing, physical distancing and remote work arrangements, with the goal of protecting employees, tenants, guests, customers and suppliers.

These rent deferrals resulted in a reduction of scheduled base rent collections of 17 percent during the period from April through September 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, all of our retail tenants who were open prior to the pandemic had reopened, although operating with capacity restrictions.

At our multi-family properties, we have granted rent deferral accommodations on a case-by-case basis, which during the period from April through September 2020 resulted in a reduction of scheduled rent collections of less than one percent of contractual rents, with no material decline in occupancy.

We will continue to consider rent deferral accommodations on a case-by-case basis.

In the aggregate, our retail and multi-family rent collections were eight percent less than scheduled rents during the period from April through September 2020.

We also terminated one lease during second-quarter

2020 and recorded charges related to this lease totaling $1.3 million, primarily related to uncollectible rents receivable and unrealizable deferred costs.

Subsequently, in July 2020, we entered into a new six-month lease agreement with this tenant, in which the amount of the lessee's rent is based on a percentage of its revenue.

Our revenue, operating income and cash flow from our hotel and entertainment segments were adversely impacted in the second and third quarters of 2020 and are expected to continue to be adversely impacted beyond third-quarter 2020.

For example, while our hotel has remained open throughout the pandemic, average occupancy in the third quarter of 2020 was 16 percent, which was a slight increase since the second-quarter average occupancy rate of 12 percent.

The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on each of our segments are described below in more detail in “Results of Operations.”

Our current plans call for us to focus on protecting existing cash flows from our Leasing Operations properties, advancing our land planning, engineering and permitting activities for our development projects, ramping up operations at Block 21 as health and market conditions permit and assessing new opportunities for future projects.

At this time, we are focusing on taking action to maintain liquidity and implement cost controls;

close routine asset sales;

closely monitor our income properties and continue to lease up certain properties;

regularly communicate with our lenders and investor groups;

advance our land planning, engineering and permitting activities;

and evaluate refinance opportunities for our larger, stabilized assets to take advantage of historic low interest rates.

All major construction projects have been completed and no new construction is scheduled until the first quarter of 2021.

We will closely monitor market conditions before initiating construction and may defer a construction start if prudent.

Impacts on our Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 12, 2020, we extended the maturity date of our $60 million revolving credit facility to September 27, 2022.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $25.9 million available under our $60.0 million Comerica Bank credit facility, with $150 thousand of letters of credit committed against the credit facility.

As discussed in more detail below, we project that we will be able to meet our debt service and other cash obligations for at least the next 12 months, without any significant asset sales or reductions in general and administrative expenses.

However, our projections are based on many detailed and complex underlying assumptions, including that our hotel and entertainment businesses will not improve in 2020 and will gradually ramp up to a break-even point in the first half of 2021, and that current conditions in our leasing operations will not further deteriorate materially.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $24.5 million available under our $60.0 million Comerica Bank credit facility, with a $150 thousand letter of credit committed against the credit facility.

We project that we will be able to meet our debt service and other cash obligations for at least the next 12 months.

Our projections are based on many detailed and complex underlying assumptions, including (1) that operating income for our Block 21 businesses will gradually ramp up to a break-even point in the first half of 2021 and that Block 21 will generate sufficient cash to cover debt service by late 2021, (2) that current conditions in our leasing operations will not further deteriorate materially, (3) that we continue to close on routine asset sales, and (4) that we sell or refinance The Saint Mary on terms consistent with our expectations.

No assurances can be given that the results anticipated by our projections will occur.

We are continuing to closely monitor health and market conditions and are prepared to make further adjustments to our business strategy if and when appropriate.

OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR SECOND-QUARTER 2020

Our net income attributable to common stockholders totaled $4.1 million, $0.50 per share, in second-quarter 2020, compared with a net loss of $2.4 million, $0.29 per share, in second-quarter 2019.

During the first six months of 2020 our net income attributable to common stockholders totaled $3.1 million, $0.37 per share, compared with a net loss of $1.5 million, $0.19 per share, during the first six months of 2019.

Our net income attributable to common stockholders in the 2020 periods, compared to our net losses in the 2019 periods, is primarily the result of $15.0 million in income from earnest money received as a result of the termination of the Block 21 transaction, partially offset by (i) operating losses from our hotel and entertainment segments in the 2020 periods, primarily as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, (ii) municipal utility district (MUD) reimbursements and a gain on sale of assets being recognized in the first six months of 2019 (as discussed below) and (iii) higher interest expense related to higher average debt balances in the 2020 periods and lower capitalized interest as projects under development are completed.

Our revenues totaled $8.9 million in second-quarter 2020, compared with $23.7 million in second-quarter 2019.

During the first six months of 2020, our revenues totaled $37.1 million, compared with $43.4 million, during the first six months of 2019.

The decrease in revenues in the 2020 periods, compared to the 2019 periods, primarily reflects the decrease in revenue from our hotel and entertainment segments caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by an increase in revenue from leasing operations.

Revenue during the first six months of 2020 also benefited from the sales of two homes built on Amarra Drive Phase III lots and an increase in lot sales.

During the first six months of 2019, we received $4.6 million of proceeds related to Travis County MUD reimbursements of infrastructure costs incurred for development of Barton Creek.

Of the total amount, we recorded $0.9 million as a reduction of real estate under development on the consolidated balance sheet, and $3.4 million as a reduction in real estate cost of sales and $0.3 million in other income, net in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

The first six months of 2019 also included a gain on the sale of assets totaling $2.0 million, primarily related to the sale of a retail pad subject to a ground lease located in the Circle C community.

OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THIRD-QUARTER 2020

Our net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $15.1 million, $1.84 per share, in third-quarter 2020, compared with a net loss of $3.0 million, $0.36 per share, in third-quarter 2019.

During the first nine months of 2020 our net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $12.0 million, $1.46 per share, compared with a net loss of $4.5 million, $0.55 per share, during the first nine months of 2019.

Our net losses attributable to common stockholders in the 2020 periods, compared to the 2019 periods, were primarily the result of (i) a non-cash tax charge of $9.6 million in third-quarter 2020 to record a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets, (ii) operating losses from our hotel and entertainment segments in the 2020 periods, primarily as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and (iii) higher interest expense related to lower capitalized interest as projects under development are completed.

Our higher net loss attributable to common stockholders during the first nine months of 2020, compared to the first nine months of 2019, was also impacted by municipal utility district (MUD) reimbursements and a gain on sale of assets being recognized in the first nine months of 2019, offset by $15.0 million in income from earnest money received as a result of the termination of the Block 21 transaction.

Our revenues totaled $12.8 million in third-quarter 2020, compared with $22.3 million in third-quarter 2019.

During the first nine months of 2020, our revenues totaled $49.9 million, compared with $65.7 million, during the first nine months of 2019.

In January 2020, the original homebuilder contract was terminated and replaced with a similar contract with the same homebuilder in which we agreed to sell the three remaining Amarra Drive Phase III

lots under the original contract as well as three new Amarra Drive Phase II lots and two new Amarra Drive Phase III lots for $5.2 million (the new homebuilder contract).

In September 2020, the new homebuilder contract was further amended to add one additional Amarra Drive Phase III lot to the contract at a sales price of $0.7 million.

In accordance with the new homebuilder contract the parties are required to close on the sale of these lots ratably before April 30, 2021.

If the purchaser fails to close on the sale of the minimum number of lots by any of the specified closing dates, we may elect to terminate the homebuilder contract but would retain the related $45 thousand earnest money.

The pandemic is negatively affecting our leasing operations, primarily at our retail properties.

Tenants at our retail locations are diverse and include grocery and liquor stores, which have remained open and have paid rent owed to-date, and restaurants, healthcare services, fitness centers, a movie house and other retail products and services, many of which were closed or operating at significantly reduced capacity beginning late in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2020.

Beginning in April 2020, Stratus agreed, generally, to 90-day base rent deferrals with a majority of these tenants.

Tenants at our retail locations are diverse and include grocery and liquor stores, which have remained open and have paid rent owed to-date, and restaurants, healthcare services, fitness centers, a movie house and other retail products and services, many of which closed or have been operating at significantly reduced capacity since late in the first quarter of 2020.

Beginning in April 2020, we agreed, generally, to 90-day base rent deferrals with a majority of these tenants.

The deferred rents are expected to be collected over a 12-month or 24-month period starting in January 2021.

These rent deferrals resulted in a reduction of scheduled base rent collections of 23 percent during the second quarter of 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, most of our retail tenants had reopened.

At our multi-family properties, we have granted rent deferral accommodations on a case-by-case basis, which during the second-quarter of 2020 resulted in a reduction of scheduled rent collections of less than one percent of contractual rents, with no material decline in occupancy.

These rent deferrals resulted in a reduction of scheduled base rent collections of 17 percent during the period from April through September 2020.

We will continue to consider rent deferral accommodations on a case-by-case basis.

In the aggregate, our second-quarter 2020 retail and multi-family rent collections were 10 percent less than scheduled rents.

As a result of these rent deferral arrangements, and as a result of some other tenants not paying rent, our rental collections in our leasing segment declined significantly in the second quarter of 2020.

In the aggregate, our retail and multi-family rent collections were eight percent less than scheduled rents during the period from April through September 2020.

We cannot assure you that our tenants will recommence rental payments in accordance with our agreements when the deferral period ends nor whether tenants will request additional accommodations or be willing or able to meet future lease obligations.

As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants except for the debt service coverage ratio covenant under the Block 21 loan as discussed below.

As of September 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants except for the debt service coverage ratio covenant under the Block 21 loan as discussed below.

During second-quarter 2020, we entered into amendments to the Lantana Place and West Killeen Market construction loans in which we were granted waivers of the debt service coverage ratio covenants for the quarters needed such that we believe we will be able to remain in compliance if rent payments do not further deteriorate materially as currently anticipated.

Effective November 2, 2020, the West Killeen Market construction loan was modified to replace the financial covenant that we maintain a minimum total stockholders’ equity balance of $110 million with a financial covenant that we maintain a minimum net asset value, as defined in the agreement, of $125 million.

The Block 21 loan agreement secured by the Block 21 assets contains financial covenant requirements that we maintain (i) a net worth in excess of $125 million, (ii) liquid assets of not less than $10 million and (iii) a trailing-12-month debt service coverage ratio, tested quarterly, each as defined in the agreement.

If any of these financial covenants are not met, a “Trigger Period”, which is not a default, results.

As a result of the pandemic, we did not meet the debt service coverage ratio test on the June 30, 2020, test date, resulting in a Trigger Period.

As a result of the pandemic, we did not meet the debt service coverage ratio test on the June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020, test dates, resulting in a Trigger Period.

During a Trigger Period, any cash generated from Block 21's hotel, entertainment and office and retail space in excess of amounts necessary to fund loan obligations, budgeted operating expenses and specified reserves would not be available to be distributed to us until after we meet a higher debt service coverage ratio requirement for two consecutive quarters.

As the ratio is calculated on a trailing-12-month basis, we currently do not expect the Trigger Period to terminate before early 2022.

As the ratio is calculated on a trailing-12-month basis, we currently expect the Trigger Period to continue through at least 2021.

The Block 21 loan agreement requires us to contribute cash to our Block 21 subsidiary if funds from Block 21’s operations are insufficient to fund all payments and reserves as required under our loan agreement.

Additionally, under our hotel operating agreement, the hotel operator may request funds from us if it reasonably determines that such funds are required in order to fund the operation of the hotel and specified reserves.

We have been required to contribute such funds during 2020, and our projections reflect that we will be required to do so in future periods in 2020 and early 2021.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $6.0 million of liabilities for deferred income and deposits that primarily related to ticket and sponsorship presales at our venues.

We have been required to contribute such funds during 2020, and our projections reflect that we will be required to do so in early 2021.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $5.8 million of liabilities for deferred income and deposits that primarily related to ticket and sponsorship presales at our venues.

We have refunded amounts related to events that have been cancelled, and we may refund additional amounts if more events are cancelled in the future.

We project that we will be able to meet our debt service and other cash obligations for at least the next 12 months, without any significant asset sales or reductions in general and administrative expenses.

Prior to the start of the pandemic, our retail and multi-family projects were in advanced lease-up phases, and we expect that they will generate sufficient revenue to pay debt service.

We have no significant principal maturities of debt during the remainder of 2020.

In addition, we have no material commitments for capital expenditures and have deferred progress on development projects as we continue to evaluate market conditions.

Our projections are based on many detailed and complex underlying assumptions, including that our hotel and entertainment businesses will not improve in 2020 and will gradually ramp up to a break-even point in the first half of 2021, and that current conditions in our leasing operations will not further deteriorate materially.

We project that we will be able to meet our debt service and other cash obligations for at least the next 12 months.

No assurances can be given that the results anticipated by our projections will occur.
