Zoned Properties, Inc. 10-Q

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. Factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as the same may be updated from time to time. We caution that these factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Overview Zoned Properties, Inc. (“Zoned Properties” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2003. In October 2013, the Company changed its name to Zoned Properties, Inc. and in April 2014, the Company shifted its business model to address commercial real estate in the regulated cannabis industry. Zoned Properties is a technology-driven property investment company focused on acquiring value-add real estate within the regulated cannabis industry in the United States. The Company aspires to innovate within the real estate development sector, focusing on direct-to-consumer real estate that is leased to the best-in-class cannabis retailers. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Zoned Properties is redefining the approach to commercial real estate investment through its standardized investment model backed by its proprietary property technology. Zoned Properties has developed a national ecosystem of real estate services to support its real estate development model, including a commercial real estate brokerage and a real estate advisory practice. The Company operates in two organized segments; (1) the operations, leasing and management of its commercial properties, herein known as the “Property Investment Portfolio” segment, and (2) the advisory, brokerage and technology services related to commercial properties, herein known as the “Real Estate Services” segment. The Company targets commercial properties that face unique zoning or development challenges, identifies solutions that can potentially have a major impact on their commercial value, and then works to acquire the properties while securing long-term, absolute-net leases. The Company does not grow, harvest, sell or distribute cannabis or any substances regulated under United States law such as the Controlled Substance Act of 1970, as amended. The core of our business operations involves identifying, securing, acquiring, and leasing commercial properties that intend to operate within highly regulated industries, including the legalized cannabis industry. Within highly regulated industries, local municipalities typically develop strict regulations, including zoning and permitting requirements related to commercial real estate, that dictate the specific locations and parameters under which regulated properties can operate, including cannabis properties. We often refer to these requirements as cannabis approvals. These regulations often include complex permitting processes that require longer development timelines than traditional commercial real estate and can include non-standard codes governing each location; for example, restricting a regulated property or facility from operating within a certain distance of any parks, schools, churches, or residential districts, or restricting a regulated property from operating outside a defined set of hours of operation. When an organization can collaborate with local representatives, a proactive set of rules and regulations can be established and followed to meet the needs of both the regulated operators and the local community. Due to the complex nature of the Company’s core business operations and target investment properties, the Company may secure dozens of potential property candidates for acquisition and prospective tenant candidates for leasing at any given time, all in the normal course of business. The process of securing a potential property candidate may include completing contractual agreements such as an option agreement or a purchase agreement, which may include various contingencies and conditions precedent related to the ultimate consummation of the acquisition, investment, or transaction. Simultaneously with the securing of potential property candidates, the Company will advertise and market a property to prospective tenant candidates for a long-term, absolute-net lease agreement, which may include various contingencies and conditions precedent related to the ultimate commencement of the lease and tenancy. In order to deliver a successful investment property transaction, the Company must collectively receive all cannabis approvals from state and local governing authorities that may be required at a given property, secure a qualified tenant to lease and operate the property, and complete the acquisition of the property. 36 The Company’s current investment properties are located in Arizona, Illinois, and Michigan with 100% occupancy and a weighted average lease term over 10 years. Each of the Company’s leased properties is occupied by a commercial cannabis tenant. Zoned Properties maintains a portfolio of properties that it owns, develops and leases. As of September 30, 2025, the Company leases land and/or building space at the seven properties in its portfolio to licensed and regulated cannabis tenants in areas with established cannabis regulations and zoning procedures. Four of the leased properties are zoned and permitted as regulated cannabis retail dispensaries, two of the leased properties are zoned and permitted as regulated cannabis cultivation and processing facilities, and one property is leased for the future development of a licensed medical and adult use marijuana retail dispensary. The Company considers the two cultivation sites in its portfolio as legacy properties and may consider selling or leveraging those properties to unlock equity and create capital availability in the future. The Zoned Properties investment thesis has evolved over the years as the cannabis industry has emerged, and is currently focused on investing capital into direct-to-consumer properties, located in state-markets with robust cannabis consumer demand in the industry.

The results discussed below are for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 Revenues For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, revenues by reportable business segments were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Revenues: Property investment portfolio $ 765,497 $ 750,926 $ 2,284,015 $ 2,121,544 Real estate services 247,636 278,704 641,444 437,464 Total revenues $ 1,013,133 $ 1,029,630 $ 2,925,459 $ 2,559,008 For the three months ended September 30, 2025, total revenues amounted to $1,013,133, including property investment portfolio revenues of $765,497, which consists of rental revenues, as compared to total revenues of $1,029,630, including property investment portfolio revenues of $750,926, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, representing an overall decrease of $16,497, or 1.6%. This decrease was attributable to an increase in rental revenues of $14,571, or 1.9%, primarily attributable to an increase in rental revenue from our recently acquired properties in Chicago, IL and Surprise, AZ, and offset by net decrease in real estate services revenues of $(31,068), or (11.1%), attributable to a decrease in advisory fees, commissions and assignment fees earned on real estate listings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, total revenues amounted to $2,925,459, including property investment portfolio revenues of $2,284,015, which consists of rental revenues, as compared to total revenues of $2,559,008 including property investment portfolio revenues of $2,121,544, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing an overall increase of $366,451, or 14.3%. This increase was attributable to an increase in rental revenues of $162,471 or 7.7%, primarily attributable to an increase in rental revenue from our recently acquired properties in Chicago, IL and Surprise, AZ, and a net increase in real estate services revenues of $203,980 or 46.6%, attributable to an increase in advisory fees, commissions and assignment fees earned on real estate listings. The increase in property investment portfolio revenues was primarily due to the signing of a new lease with new tenants at our recently acquired properties located in Chicago, Illinois which began in January 2024 and Surprise, AZ which began in July 2024. All of the Company’s real estate properties are leased under absolute-net or triple-net leases with our tenants. 38 Operating expenses For the three months ended September 30, 2025, operating expenses amounted to $645,809, as compared to $584,442 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, representing an increase of $61,367, or 10.5%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compensation and benefit expense increased by $233,440, or 29.2%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in consulting fees of $15,750 and a decrease in transfer agent fees of $1,537, offset by an increase in legal fees of $1,043. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, professional fees decreased by $93,982, or 34.0%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Business development costs are costs related to forfeited escrow deposits and the write off of costs related to projects which we decided not to pursue. Income (loss) from operations As a result of the factors described above, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, income from operations amounted to $367,324, as compared to income from operations of $445,188 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $77,864, or 17.5%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, income from operations amounted to $1,068,283, as compared to income from operations of $677,235 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing an increase of $391,048, or 57.7%. Other (expenses) income, net Other (expense) income primarily includes interest expense incurred on debt with third parties and also includes other income (expense). For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, total other expenses, net amounted to $210,472 and $386,316, respectively, representing a decrease of $175,844, or 45.5%. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in loss in fair value from an interest rate swap of $186,247, offset by an increase in interest expense of $10,583 primarily related to an increase in notes payable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, total other expenses, net amounted to $739,247 and $554,173, respectively, representing an increase of $185,074, or 33.4%. This increase was attributable to an increase in interest expense of $87,546 primarily related to an increase in notes payable and an increase in loss in fair value from an interest rate swap of $97,528. Equity method loss For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred a loss from unconsolidated joint ventures of $1,655 and $1,655, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not incur a loss from unconsolidated joint ventures. Net income As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, net income amounted to $155,197, or $0.01 per common share (basic) and $0.02 (diluted), and $58,872, or $0.00 per common share (basic and diluted), respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, net income amounted to $327,381, or $0.03 per common share (basic) and $0.02 (diluted), and $123,062, or $0.01 per common share (basic and diluted), respectively. Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. We had cash of $1,113,900 and $1,019,980 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Our primary uses of cash have been for the acquisition of new property investments, compensation and benefits, fees paid to third parties for professional services, real estate taxes, general and administrative expenses, and the development of rental properties and other lines of business. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business. We receive funds from the collection of rental income, and real estate services, which primarily includes advisory fees and brokerage fees. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in changes in our liquidity over the near term to long term: ● An increase in working capital requirements to finance our current business, ● Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows, ● The cost of being a public company, ● An increase in investments in joint ventures and other projects, and ● An increase in investments in rental properties. 40 We may need to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to continue to generate positive cash flows from our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations for the next 12 months from the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Other than revenue received from the lease of our rental properties and real estate services, and from a bank note, we presently have no other significant alternative source of working capital. We have used these funds to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, acquire and develop rental properties, invest in joint ventures, and to grow our company. We may need to raise significant additional capital or debt financing to acquire new properties, to develop existing properties, to assure we have sufficient working capital for our ongoing operations and debt obligations, and to invest in new joint venture and other projects. Recent Property Acquisitions and Related Note Payables On July 8, 2024 (the “Closing”), ZP Dysart acquired a property in Surprise AZ (the “Surprise Property”) from NWC Dysart & Bell LLC (“NWC”). The Surprise Property is a tract or parcel of land containing approximately 1.114 acres, together with all improvements, buildings, leases, rights, easements, and appurtenances pertaining thereto. The Surprise Property was acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $1,712,541, which included (i) $1,100,000, representing the Purchase Price, (ii) reimburse to NWC for onsite and offsite improvements of $492,022, and (iii) closing costs, commissions, and fees customary to the acquisition of real estate of $120,519. As previously disclosed, on January 23, 2023, ZPRE Holdings entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions, by and between NWC, as the seller, and ZPRE Holdings, as the buyer. Such agreement was subsequently amended on May 12, 2023, October 25, 2023, and December 20, 2023 (as amended, the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, NWC also agreed to complete a number of on-site and off-site improvements to the Surprise Property (the “NWC’s Work”) in exchange for ZPRE Holdings’ reimbursement of up to $250,000 for the off-site work and reimbursement of up to $350,000 for the on-site work (collectively, the “Reimbursements”). The obligation to complete the Reimbursements was conditioned upon the closing of the sale of the Surprise Property. Subsequent to entry into the Agreement and as approved by NWC under the terms of the Agreement, ZPRE Holdings designated ZP Dysart as the named buyer for the Closing. In connection with the Surprise Property Closing, ZP Dysart entered into the Construction Loan Agreement (the “PMF Loan Agreement”), dated as of July 8, 2024, by and between ZP Dysart and Private Money Funding, LLC (“PMF”). Pursuant to the terms of the PMF Loan Agreement, PMF agreed to loan up to $1,620,000 to ZP Dysart, which loan is evidenced by a promissory note (the “PMF Note”). ZP Dysart’s obligations under the PMF Note and the PMF Loan Agreement are secured by a Deed of Trust, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (the “PMF Deed”). The PMF Loan Agreement, the PMF Note, any guaranties, and all other related documents executed and delivered concurrently with the PMF Loan Agreement are referred to herein as the “PMF Loan Documents.” Pursuant to the terms of the PMF Loan Agreement, on July 8, 2024, ZP Dysart issued the PMF Note with the maximum principal amount of $1,620,000 to PMF (the “Maximum Amount”). Interest accrues at the rate of 12% per annum, with ZP Dysart paying interest only in arrears, in monthly installment payments, beginning on August 1, 2024 through July 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”). ZP Dysart may prepay the PMF Loan in full or in part at any time. However, during the first 48 months of the term of the loan, if ZP Dysart pays any principal payment, ZP Dysart will pay to PMF a prepayment premium equal to (i) 5% of the amount of principal prepaid in months 1-24; (ii) 2% of the amount of principal prepaid in months 25-36; and (iii) 1% of the amount of principal prepaid in months 36-48, which amount will be due and payable at the time ZP Dysart pays the principal payment. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company borrowed $1,020,000 of the Maximum Amount and received net proceeds of $983,940, net of origination fees and costs of $36,060. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company borrowed $300,000 of the Maximum Amount and received net proceeds of $300,000. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the principal amount of the loan is $1,320,000 and $1,020,000, respectively, and accrued interest payable amounted to $0 and $0, respectively. On March 3, 2025, ZP Dysart entered into a First Amendment with its tenant related to the Sunday Goods Lease at the Surprise Property. The First Amendment clarifies and defines the process by which the tenant improvement Allowance for the Tenant Work at the Surprise Property would be completed. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sunday Goods Lease, and so long as there is no default ongoing beyond any notice and/or cure period, partial payments of the Allowance (the “Allowance Payments”) provided by Landlord shall be made to Tenant as follows: (#1) $300,000 was paid upon the full execution of the First Amendment to the Lease; (#2) $150,000 was paid on March 28, 2025; (#3) $150,000 was paid on May 1, 2025; and (#4) the remaining $400,000 of the Allowance shall be withheld by Landlord until completion of the Tenant’s Work on the Property; provided however, Landlord’s obligation to disburse the final $400,000 (Payment #4 of the Allowance Payments) is expressly conditioned upon Landlord’s receipt of the following “Allowance Deliverables”: (i) Tenant has furnished to Landlord a copy of a commercially reasonably detailed final cost breakdown for Tenant’s Work and Landlord has inspected the Premises to confirm that Tenant’s Work has been completed in a good and workmanlike manner according to the Tenant’s Approved Plans; (ii) Tenant has furnished to Landlord commercially reasonable final affidavits and final lien releases from Tenant’s general contractor, and if any, all subcontractors and all material suppliers for all labor and materials performed or supplied as part of Tenant’s Work (whether or not the Allowance is applicable thereto); and (iii) a copy of the certificate of occupancy from the governmental authority having jurisdiction has been delivered to Landlord. Throughout the project, Tenant shall be required to provide Landlord with ongoing accounting reflecting a commercially reasonable breakdown of the Tenant’s Work paid for with the Allowance Payments, and also a current Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, executed by Tenant. 41 During the existence of any event of default, PMF may, at its option, exercise any one or more of the remedies described in the PMF Loan Documents or otherwise available, including declaring all unpaid indebtedness then evidenced by the Note (including any late charges that are then due and payable, any advances thereafter made from the loan and any accruing costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees which are the obligation of ZP Dysart under the PMF Loan Documents) to become immediately due and payable. Unless PMF otherwise elects, such acceleration will occur automatically upon the occurrence of any event of default described in PMF Loan Agreement or PMF Deed. After maturity or during the existence of any event of default, or at any time that ZP Dysart is more than 10 days delinquent in the payment of money as required by the Note or the other Loan Documents (whether or not Holder has given any notice of default or any cure period has expired), then all amounts outstanding thereunder will thereafter bear interest at the default rate of 18% per annum from the date such payment became due until paid, but in no event to exceed the highest rate lawfully collectible under applicable law. Pursuant to the terms of the PMF Loan Agreement, following ZP Dysart’s satisfaction of the conditions to funding the PMF Loan and recordation of the PMF Deed, the loan proceeds will be disbursed in multiple advances through escrow, first in the form of an initial advance in the amount of $1,020,000 for the purpose of contributing funding towards acquiring the Surprise Property (the “Acquisition Advance”). The remaining loan proceeds will be used for the purpose of financing for the completion of Sunday Goods’ Work (as hereinafter defined) (the “Construction Advances”). Following the Acquisition Advance, subject to satisfying the conditions set forth in the PMF Loan Agreement, ZP Dysart will be entitled to request the Construction Advances from the remaining loan proceeds at the following stages of completion of the construction of Sunday Goods’ Work: (i) first advance in the amount of $300,000 at 50% completion, and (ii) final advance in the amount of $300,000 at 100% completion and issuance of certificate of occupancy. The PMF Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for a transaction of this type. Pursuant to the terms of the Unconditional Repayment Guaranty (the “PMF Guaranty”), dated as of July 8, 2024, by the Company, in favor of PMF, the Company guaranteed to PMF the full and prompt payment of the principal sum of the PMF Note or so much thereof that may be outstanding at any one time or from time to time in accordance with its terms when due, by acceleration or otherwise, together with all interest accrued thereon, and the full and prompt payment of all other sums, together with all interest accrued thereon, when due under the terms of the PMF Loan Agreement, the PMF Note, and in any deed of trust, security agreement, lease assignment and other assignment or agreement referred to in the PMF Loan Agreement or the PMF Note and/or now or hereafter securing the PMF Note or setting forth any obligations of ZP Dysart in connection with the loan. We may secure additional financing to acquire and develop additional and existing properties. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow our business operations.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements Contractual Obligations We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The following tables summarize our contractual obligations as of September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands), and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods. Payments Due by Period Contractual obligations: Total Less than 1 year 1-3 years 3-5 years 5 + years Convertible notes $ 2,000 $ - $ - $ 2,000 $ - Interest on convertible notes 510 120 240 150 - Notes payable 7,435 101 1,796 1,445 4,093 Total $ 9,945 $ 221 $ 2,036 $ 3,595 $ 4,093 Off-balance Sheet Arrangements Other than discussed herein, we have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholders’ equity. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us. Our off-balance sheet arrangement includes the notional amount of our interest rate swaps which we use to hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Currently, our interest rate swap fixes the variable rate interest on our bank swap note payable. We intend to fund our interest rate swap payments utilizing cash flows from operations. As of September 30, 2025, the notional amount of our interest rate swaps was $4,384,359. In interest rate swaps, the notional amount is the specified value upon which interest rate payments will be exchanged. The notional amount in interest rate swaps is used to come up with the amount of interest due. 43 Critical Accounting Estimates Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including the critical ones related to an interest rate swap, the allowance for accounts receivable, impairment of rental properties, and the valuation of equity transactions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting estimates affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements. Interest rate swap In connection with a bank loan executed in 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to manage interest rate risk related to debt that accrues interest at variable rates. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreement in accordance with the guidance related to derivatives and hedging activities. The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. The Company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional principal amount. Interest payments receivable and payable under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement are accrued over the period to which the payment relates and the net difference is treated as an adjustment of interest expense related to the underlying liability. Because the variable interest rates used to calculate payments under the terms of the swap agreement are calculated using different benchmarks than those included in the Company’s variable rate debt agreement, the swap agreement is not considered an effective cash flow hedge. Accordingly, changes in the underlying market value of the remaining swap payments are recognized into income as an increase or decrease to other income (expense) each reporting period. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , the Company believes values provided by its counterparty represent the fair value of its swap agreement. The Company believes that the quality of the counterparty to its swap agreement mitigates the counterparty credit risk. The estimated fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is reflected as a derivative liability on the accompanying balance sheets with changes in the fair value reflected in income (loss) from derivative - interest rate swap on the accompanying statements of operations. The Company uses derivative financial instruments only to manage interest rate risks and not as investment vehicles. Information regarding the interest rate swap is as follows: Description Notional Amount on September 30, 2025 Interest Rate Maturity Fair Value of Liability on September 30, 2025 Fair Value of Asset on December 31, 2024 December 7, 2022 interest rate swap $ 4,384,359 7.65 % December 10, 2032 $ 105,450 $ 44,581 44 Accounts receivable We recognize an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries under the current expected credit loss method. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts receivable considered at risk or uncollectible. On January 1, 2023, we adopted ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses”. In accordance with ASC 326, an allowance is maintained for estimated forward-looking losses resulting from the possible inability of customers to make required payments (current expected losses). The amount of the allowance is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers. The expense associated with the allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is recognized in general and administrative expenses. Rental properties Rental properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Betterments, major renovations and certain costs directly related to the improvement of rental properties are capitalized. Maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 39 years. Tenant improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases, which approximate the useful lives of the assets. Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities (such as acquired below-market leases) and allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. The Company assesses fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. Our properties are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, or market conditions change, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Impairment occurs when the carrying amount of our rental properties exceeds its recoverable amount. For our rental property, we considered the recoverable amount to be the respective properties fair value less costs to sell (FVLCS) plus its value in use (VIU). The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell (FVLCS) and its value in use (VIU). FVLCS and VIU as defined as follows: ■ Fair Value Less Costs to Sell (FVLCS): ■ Fair value is typically determined by market prices or appraisals or tax value. ■ Subtract any costs that would be incurred to sell the asset (like commissions). ■ Value in Use (VIU): ■ This is the present value of the future cash flows the asset is expected to generate. ■ Cash flows should be based on leases in place. We have capitalized land, which is not subject to depreciation. Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation –Stock Compensation ”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . Assumptions used in the estimation of stock-based grants may include the volatility of our common stock, expected term of exercise, our discount rate and our dividend rate. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Management does not believe that recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. 45 Item 3.
