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, 2025, 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. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, 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.
37
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.
The Company’s current investment properties
are located in Arizona and Illinois 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 and leases. As of August 14, 2026, the Company leases land and/or building space at the four properties in its portfolio
to licensed and regulated cannabis tenants in areas with established cannabis regulations and zoning procedures. One of the leased properties
is zoned and permitted as regulated cannabis retail dispensary, two of the leased properties are zoned and permitted as regulated cannabis
cultivation and processing facilities, and one property is leased for the development of a licensed medical and adult use marijuana retail
dispensary.
Sale of Rental Properties
On May 1, 2026, the Company, through its wholly
owned subsidiary ZP Woodward entered into and closed on an Agreement of Sale and Escrow Instructions (the “Woodward Agreement”)
with Woodward RE 1 LLC, a Michigan limited liability company, or its nominee (“Woodward Buyer”). Pursuant to the Woodward
Agreement, ZP Woodward agreed to sell to the Woodward Buyer all Michigan properties (See Note 13 – Subsequent Events). We sold the
Woodward Property for $600,000. As of December 31, 2025, based on the potential sale of the Woodward Properties, the net carrying value
of the Woodward Property of approximately $2,700,000 would exceed the $600,000 sale price by $2,100,000. Based on these conditions, our
projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, and market conditions have changed. Accordingly, during the year ended December
31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $2,100,000.
38
On April 20, 2026, the Company through its wholly
owned subsidiaries, Green Valley, Kingman and Chino Valley (collectively, the “Seller”), entered into a Real Estate Purchase
and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Broken Arrow Herbal Center, Inc., an Arizona corporation (the “Purchaser”),
pursuant to which the Seller agreed to sell to the Purchaser three properties consisting of (i) property commonly known as 1732 W. Commerce
Point Place, Green Valley, Arizona 85614 (the “Green Valley Property”), (ii) property commonly known as 2095 E. Northern Avenue,
Kingman, Arizona 86409 (the “Kingman Property”), and (iii) property commonly known as 2144-2148 N. Road 1 East, Chino Valley,
Arizona 86323 (the “Chino Property” and together with the Green Valley Property and Kingman Property, the “Properties”).
The Purchase Agreement provides that the Purchaser is exercising purchase rights set forth in certain existing lease agreements relating
to the Properties.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
the aggregate purchase price for the Properties was $9.0 million, allocated as follows: (i) $8.0 million for the Chino Property, (ii)
$500,000 for the Kingman Property, and (iii) $500,000 for the Green Valley Property. The Purchaser is required to deposit $400,000 into
escrow. Subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price is to be paid through a combination of (i) $4.0 million in
cash and (ii) a $5.0 million promissory note to be secured by a deed of trust. The Purchase Agreement provides that, following closing,
such seller financing is to be the only debt or lien permitted to encumber the Properties until the note has been paid in full and the
deed of trust has been released of record.
The closing was scheduled to occur on June 30,
2026, unless extended in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser has the right, in its sole discretion, to extend the closing
date to August 31, 2026, by timely written notice. If that extension right is exercised, the Purchase Agreement provides that the acquisitions
of the Green Valley Property and the Kingman Property would close on the original closing date for an aggregate cash payment of $1.0 million,
and the closing for the Chino Property would be extended to August 31, 2026. If the first extension right is timely exercised, the Purchaser
also has a further right to extend the closing for the Chino Property to September 30, 2026, by timely written notice and by delivering
an additional $1.0 million supplemental deposit to the escrow agent, which supplemental deposit is nonrefundable except in the case of
an uncured seller default. Except as expressly provided in connection with a timely exercised extension, the Purchase Agreement contemplates
an all-or-none closing involving all three Properties.
On June 30, 2026, the closing with respect to
the Green Valley Property and the Kingman Property was effectuated, and the Purchaser timely exercised its right under the Purchase Agreement
to extend the closing date with respect to the Chino Property to August 31, 2026, subject to the Purchaser’s right to extend such
closing date to September 30, 2026, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, on June 30, 2026, the
Purchaser delivered a cash payment of $1.0 million, representing the portion of the aggregate purchase price for the Properties allocated
to these two properties under the Purchase Agreement ($0.5 million for the Green Valley Property and $0.5 million for the Kingman Property).
The net cash of $994,051 was received on July 1, 2026.

Management Buyout Asset Purchase Agreement
On January 15, 2026, the Company entered into
an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “MBO APA”) by and among the Company, Zoned Arizona, ZP Dysart, ZPRE Holdings and collectively
with Zoned Arizona and ZP Dysart, the “Real Property Sellers” and, together with the Company, the “Seller Parties”
and each, a “Seller Party”, and BPB Partners, LLC (the “Buyer”). The Buyer is owned by Bryan McLaren, the Company’s
Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer; Berekk Blackwell, the Company’s President and Chief
Operating Officer; and Patrick Moroney.
The Company formed a Special Transactions Committee
of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”), consisting of its three independent directors, that has reviewed, negotiated
and overseen the MBO APA and the other transaction documents and the transactions contemplated by the MBO APA (the “MBO”).
The Committee approved the MBO APA, the other transaction documents and the MBO, prior to its execution. The MBO APA and the other transaction
documents and the MBO were also approved by the full Board of Directors prior to its execution.
40
Pursuant to the terms of the MBO APA, the Seller
Parties agreed to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer agreed to purchase from the Seller Parties, subject to the terms of the MBO APA, all
of the Seller Parties’ rights, title and interest in and to the Company’s business (the “Business”), and the assets,
properties and rights of the Seller Parties, subject to modification as set forth in the MBO APA, and other than the Excluded Assets (as
defined in the MBO APA) (the “Assets”). The Assets include, among other things, (i) the real property located at 410 S. Madison
Drive, Tempe, AZ; (ii) the real property located at 13150 W. Bell Road, Surprise, AZ; (iii) the real property located at 3455 S. Ashland
Avenue, Chicago, IL; (iv) the Company’s membership interests in ZPRE Holdings, Arizona Brokerage, Florida Brokerage, ZP Data 2,
ZP Ohio B, LLC, and Zoneomics Green; (v) all rights under all contracts to which any Seller Party is a party or is bound as of the closing
date that is related to the Business; (vi) all intellectual property of the Seller Parties; (vii) all prepaid expenses, security deposits,
and certain other operational assets; and (vii) potentially certain additional assets that may be acquired by the Seller Parties prior
to the closing of the MBO, as discussed below.
Subject to adjustment as set forth in the MBO
APA, the purchase price for the Assets will be $7,000,000, less the Assumed Indebtedness (as defined in the MBO APA) (the “Purchase
Price”).
The parties to the MBO APA acknowledged and agreed
that between January 15, 2026 and the date of the closing of the MBO, the Company or one or more affiliates of the Company may acquire
or invest in additional real estate assets (“Additional Assets”). Upon acquisition of or investment in the Additional Assets,
(i) such Additional Assets shall be deemed included in the “Assets” for purposes of the MBO APA, (ii) the Purchase Price will
be increased by the amount of the cash purchase price paid therefor by the Company or its affiliate, (iii) the Purchase Price will be
decreased by the amount of any cash and/or debt instruments issued by the Company or its affiliate to the seller of such Additional Assets
(the “Additional Asset Acquisition Indebtedness”), and (iv) such Additional Asset Acquisition Indebtedness will be deemed
included in the assumed liabilities pursuant to the MBO APA.
The parties to the MBO APA also acknowledged and
agreed that between January 15, 2026 and the closing of the MBO, the Company may sell the real estate assets located at 23622-23634 Woodward
Avenue, Pleasant Ridge, MI (the “Pleasant Ridge Assets”) to a third party for a purchase price to be determined. On MAY 1,
2026, THE {Pleasant Ridger Assets were sold and accordingly, will not be included in the “Assets” for purposes of the MBO
APA.
The parties to the MBO APA further acknowledged
and agreed that between January 15, 2026 and the closing, the Company may sell the real estate assets located at 2144 N. Road 1 East,
Chino Valley, AZ; 2095 Northern Avenue, Kingman, AZ; and 1732 W. Commerce Point Place, Green Valley, AZ (collectively, the “CKG
Properties”) to a third party for a total purchase price of $9,000,000 (the “CKG Purchase Price”), of which $4,000,000
is expected to be paid in cash and $5,000,000 is expected to be paid via a promissory note payable to the Company (the “CKG Note”).
In the event that the sale of the CKG Properties is not consummated prior to the closing, then the CKG Properties will be deemed included
in the “Assets” and the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the CKG Purchase Price. On June 30, 2026, the Green
Valley and Kingman properties were sold and accordingly, the Green Valley and Kingman properties will not be included in the “Assets,”
but the CKG Note will be included in the “Assets” for purposes of the MBO APA, and the Purchase Price will be increased by
the principal amount of the CKG Note.
Pursuant to the terms of the MBO APA, the MBO
APA may be terminated at any time prior to the closing by:
(a) The mutual agreement of the parties, each in their sole discretion;
(b) The Company or by Buyer if there shall be in effect a final
non-appealable order, judgment, injunction or decree entered by or with a governmental entity restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting
the consummation of the MBO;
(c) The Buyer if there shall have been a breach in any material
respect of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of any Seller Party, which breach has not been cured within
10 days after receipt of notice of such breach by the Company;
(d) The Company if there shall have been a breach in any material
respect of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer, which breach has not been cured within 10 days after
receipt of notice of such breach by Buyer;
(e) Any party in the event that the closing has not occurred by
September 30, 2026, which date may be extended by 90 days as set forth in the MBO APA;
(f) Written notice by Buyer to the Company, if there shall have
been a “Seller Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in the MBO APA) following the Effective Date which is uncured for at
least 20 business days after written notice by the Buyer;
(g) The Buyer, during the 180-day period following the Effective
Date, if the Buyer determines that its due diligence review is not satisfactory for any reason in its sole discretion; or
(h) The Company, in the event it receives a proposal on terms more
favorable to the Company’s stockholders than those set forth in the MBO APA, subject to the terms of the MBO APA, prior to the
date that is the later of (i) the date on which the Company receives stockholder approval as set forth in the MBO APA, and July 14, 2026
(the date on which the Buyer’s due diligence period expires).
41
The closing of the MBO is subject to certain closing
conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) the Company and the Committee having received an opinion as to the fairness of the transactions,
from a financial point of view, to the shareholders of the Company, and such opinion remaining valid and in full force and effect as of
the closing; (ii) MBO APA and the transactions set forth therein being approved by both (1) the shareholders of the Company holding a
majority of the voting power of the Company, as required by Nevada law, and (2) shareholders of the Company holding a majority of the
voting power of the Company, but excluding for such purposes any such shareholder, and shares or stock of the Company, held by any persons
who own, control or have any interest in the Buyer (i.e., a ‘majority of the minority’ uninterested shareholders); (iii) receipt
of any required regulatory approvals; (iv) raising by the Buyer of the capital required, in its sole discretion, to fund the Purchase
Price; and (v) other customary closing conditions. The MBO APA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants.
On July 30, 2026, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC and distributed the proxy statement to shareholders relating
to a special meeting of shareholders to be held on September 11, 2026. At the special meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider
and vote on a proposal to approve the Asset Sale and adopt the MBO APA. There can be no assurance as to when or whether the closing conditions
will be satisfied or waived, as to whether shareholders will approve the Asset Sale and adopt the MBO APA, or as to when or whether the
Asset Sale will be consummated. Assuming receipt of shareholder approval at the special meeting, Zoned Properties expects to consummate
the Asset Sale in the third quarter of 2026, but it cannot be certain when or if the conditions to the Asset Sale will be satisfied or,
to the extent permitted, waived.
Assuming that the MBO APA is approved
by the Company’s stockholders, as required, and the Company can successfully sell and liquidate 100% of the Company’s assets
and operations, the Company expects (i) to pay off any remaining debt, settle any remaining accounts and agreements, liquidate the Company’s
outstanding preferred shares, and then distribute the net available balance of cash to stockholders as a return of capital through a
special dividend, and (ii) to subsequently complete a reverse merger or other transaction involving the public company.
Going concern consideration
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments
in the normal course of business. As reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company had net income of $19,127
and had cash provided by operations of $1,041,428 for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, the Company
had cash of $2,446,418 and stockholders’ equity of $3,430,648.
On April 20, 2026, the Company through its wholly
owned subsidiaries, Green Valley, Kingman and Chino Valley (collectively, the “Seller”), entered into a Real Estate Purchase
and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Broken Arrow Herbal Center, Inc., an Arizona corporation (the “Purchaser”),
pursuant to which the Seller agreed to sell to the Purchaser three properties consisting of (i) property commonly known as 1732 W. Commerce
Point Place, Green Valley, Arizona 85614 (the “Green Valley Property”), (ii) property commonly known as 2095 E. Northern Avenue,
Kingman, Arizona 86409 (the “Kingman Property”), and (iii) property commonly known as 2144-2148 N. Road 1 East, Chino Valley,
Arizona 86323 (the “Chino Property” and together with the Green Valley Property and Kingman Property, the “Properties”).
The Purchase Agreement provides that the Purchaser is exercising purchase rights set forth in certain existing lease agreements relating
to the Properties.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
the aggregate purchase price for the Properties was $9.0 million, allocated as follows: (i) $8.0 million for the Chino Property, (ii)
$500,000 for the Kingman Property, and (iii) $500,000 for the Green Valley Property. The Purchaser is required to deposit $400,000 into
escrow, of which $100 constitutes independent contract consideration payable to the Seller. Subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
the purchase price is to be paid through a combination of (i) $4.0 million in cash and (ii) a $5.0 million promissory note to be secured
by a deed of trust. The Purchase Agreement provides that, following closing, such seller financing is to be the only debt or lien permitted
to encumber the Properties until the note has been paid in full and the deed of trust has been released of record.
The closing was scheduled to occur on June 30,
2026, unless extended in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser has the right, in its sole discretion, to extend the closing
date to August 31, 2026, by timely written notice. If that extension right is exercised, the Purchase Agreement provides that the acquisitions
of the Green Valley Property and the Kingman Property would close on the original closing date for an aggregate cash payment of $1.0 million,
and the closing for the Chino Property would be extended to August 31, 2026. If the first extension right is timely exercised, the Purchaser
also has a further right to extend the closing for the Chino Property to September 30, 2026, by timely written notice and by delivering
an additional $1.0 million supplemental deposit to the escrow agent, which supplemental deposit is nonrefundable except in the case of
an uncured seller default. Except as expressly provided in connection with a timely exercised extension, the Purchase Agreement contemplates
an all-or-none closing involving all three Properties.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary provisions
regarding title review, closing deliveries, apportionments, casualty and condemnation, default remedies, confidentiality, governing law,
and other matters. The Seller is required to remove certain monetary liens voluntarily created by the Seller, but otherwise has no general
obligation to cure title objections. The Purchase Agreement also provides that the Purchaser is acquiring the Properties in their present
“as is,” “where is,” and “with all faults” condition, subject to limited exceptions expressly set
forth in the agreement. In addition, effective as of closing and subject to certain carveouts described in the Purchase Agreement, the
Purchaser will release the Seller and certain related parties from claims relating to the condition of the Properties and certain other
matters described in the Purchase Agreement.
If the Purchaser fails to complete the purchase
without legal excuse and does not timely cure such default, the Seller’s sole remedy is to terminate the Purchase Agreement and
retain the deposit as liquidated damages. If the transaction fails to close due to an uncured default by the Seller, the Purchaser’s
sole and exclusive remedies are to terminate the Purchase Agreement and receive a refund of the deposit, less the independent contract
consideration, waive the default and proceed to closing, or seek specific performance, subject to the timing limitations set forth in
the Purchase Agreement.
42
On June 30, 2026, the closing with respect to
the Green Valley Property and the Kingman Property was effectuated, and the Purchaser timely exercised its right under the Purchase Agreement
to extend the closing date with respect to the Chino Property to August 31, 2026, subject to the Purchaser’s right to extend such
closing date to September 30, 2026, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, on June 30, 2026, the
Purchaser delivered a cash payment of $1.0 million, representing the portion of the aggregate purchase price for the Properties allocated
to these two properties under the Purchase Agreement ($0.5 million for the Green Valley Property and $0.5 million for the Kingman Property).
The net cash of $994,051 was received on July 1, 2026.
There can be no assurance as to when or whether the closing conditions with respect to the Asset Sale and the MBO APA will be satisfied
or waived, as to whether shareholders will approve the Asset Sale and adopt the MBO APA, or as to when or whether the Asset Sale will
be consummated. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not constitute a solicitation of any vote or approval. Shareholders and investors
are urged to read the definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents filed with the SEC carefully and in their entirety because
they contain important information about the proposed transaction.
In connection with the potential sale of the Chino
Valley property and the Assets pursuant to the MBO APA, the sale process is ongoing and is subject to shareholder approval and other contingencies,
and accordingly, not all the requirements under ASC 360-45-9 related to long-lived assets held for sale have been met including the need
for shareholder approval and certain contingencies exists such as local government approvals and the attainment of financing.
On May 1, 2026, the Company, through its wholly
owned subsidiary ZP Woodward entered into and closed on an Agreement of Sale and Escrow Instructions (the “Woodward Agreement”)
with Woodward RE 1 LLC, a Michigan limited liability company, or its nominee (“Woodward Buyer”). Pursuant to the Woodward
Agreement, ZP Woodward agreed to sell to the Woodward Buyer all Michigan properties (See Note 13 – Subsequent Events). The Company
sold the Woodward Property for $600,000.
If the Company sells some or all of its remaining
properties, it will have minimal or no operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this Quarterly Report. There can be no assurance that the Company
will sell its properties. If the Company sells its properties, the Company’s cash flow provided by operating activities would decrease
substantially and the Company may need to raise capital through debt and/or equity financings to fund any ongoing operations, may need
to curtail its operations, or may decide the liquidate the Company. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be
necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
The following comparative analysis on results
of operations was based primarily on the comparative financial statements, footnotes and related information for the periods identified

during May and June 2026, our property investment portfolio revenues decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as
compared to the three and six months ended June 30. 2025, and we expect property investment portfolio revenues to decrease subsequent
to June 30, 2026.

●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, compensation and benefit expense decreased by $75,911, or 22.2%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to an overall decrease in compensation and related benefits of $118,506, offset by an increase in stock-based compensation of $42,595 related to accretion of stock-based compensation incurred from the issuance of common shares for services rendered. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, compensation and benefit expense decreased by $191,400, or 30.5%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to an overall decrease in compensation and related benefits of $138,909 and a decrease in stock-based compensation of $52,491 attributable to (a) the reversal of previously recorded stock-based stock option expense of $161,741 due to the cancellation of unvested stock options and b) an increase in stock-based compensation of $109,250 from the issuance of common shares for services rendered.
●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, professional fees increased by $229,552, or 395.7%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in legal fees of $204,262, an increase in consulting fees of $25,143, and an increase in other professional fees of $147. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, professional fees increased by $294,301, or 216.7%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in legal fees of $256,770, an increase in consulting fees of $35,785, and an increase in other professional fees of $1,746. The increase in legal for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to activity incurred in connection with the sale of rental properties and the management buyout agreement.
●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded brokerage fees amounting to $62,086 and $75,224, respectively, representing a decrease of $13,138, or 17.5%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded brokerage fees amounting to $432,703 and $75,224, respectively, representing an increase of $357,479, or 475.2%. Brokerage fees occur as the result of various percentage-based commission splits we pay to our licensed brokerage team members who participate in various real estate listing transactions.
●
General and administrative expenses consist of expenses such as rent expense, bad debt expense, insurance expense, travel expenses, office expenses, telephone and internet expenses, advertising and marketing expense, and other general operating expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, general and administrative expenses increased by $28,973, or 44.7%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in insurance expense of $38,829 related to an increase in directors and officers liability insurance premiums incurred, offset by a decrease in other general and administrative expenses of $9,856. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, general and administrative expenses increased by $23,430, or 19.47%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in insurance expense of $77,658 related to an increase in directors and officers liability insurance premiums incurred, offset by the recording of bad debt recovery of $33,015 during the 2026 period and a decrease in other general and administrative expenses of $21,213.
●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, depreciation expense decreased by $13,557, or 15.4%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 due to a decrease in depreciable rental properties. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, depreciation expense decreased by $28,230, or 16.0%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to a decrease in depreciable rental properties.
●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, real estate taxes decreased by $6,292, or 16.6%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, real estate
taxes decreased by $5,516, or 7.3%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was attributable to the sale of our
Woodward properties.
●
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, property portfolio business development costs increased by $5,000, or 100.0%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, property portfolio business development costs increased by $204,650, or 100.0%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. Property portfolio business development costs are costs related to forfeited escrow deposits and the write off of development costs related to projects which we decided not to pursue due to the rejection of permits and licensing by local governments or likelihood that the project would proceed.

Income (loss) from operations
As a result of the factors described above, for
the three months ended June 30, 2026, (loss) income from operations amounted to $(46,236), as compared to income from operations of $272,188
for the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $318,424, or 117.0%. As a result of the factors described above,
for the six months ended June 30, 2026, income from operations amounted to $80,332, as compared to income from operations of $700,959
for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $620,627, or 88.5%.
Other (expenses) income, net
Other (expense) income, net primarily includes
interest expense incurred on debt with third parties and also includes other income (expense). For the three months ended June 30, 2026
and 2025, total other income (expenses), net amounted to $120,023 and $(245,862), respectively, representing a positive change of $365,885,
or 148.8%. This positive change was attributable to a decrease in interest expense of $24,751, primarily related to a decrease in notes
payable, and a positive change in gain or loss in fair value from an interest rate swap of $101,319, the recording of a gain from the
sale of rental properties of $237,815, and an increase in other income of $2,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, total
other expenses, net amounted to $61,205 and $528,775, respectively, representing a decrease of $467,570, or 88.4%. This decrease was attributable
to a decrease in interest expense of $8,691, primarily related to a decrease in notes payable, and a positive change in gain or loss in
fair value from an interest rate swap of $216,564, the recording of a gain from the sale of rental properties of $237,815, and an increase
in other income of $4,500.
Net income
As a result of the foregoing, for the three months
ended June 30, 2026, net income amounted to $73,787, or $0.01 per common share (basic and diluted), and for the three months ended June
30, 2025, net income amounted to $26,326, or $0.00 per common share (basic) and $0.01 per common share (diluted). As a result of the foregoing,
for the six months ended June 30, 2026, net income amounted to $19,127, or $0.00 per common share (basic and diluted), and for the six
months ended June 30, 2025, net income amounted to $172,184, or $0.01 per common share (basic and diluted).
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 $2,446,418 and $837,767 as of June 30, 2026 and December
31, 2025, 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. Additionally, our cash decreased due
to the sale of revenue producing properties. 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,
●
The cost of being a public company,
●
A decrease in property investment portfolio revenues due to the sale of rental properties, and
●
A decrease in investments in rental properties.
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,
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 and other notes payable, 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.

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 June 30, 2026, and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

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 June 30, 2026, the notional amount of our interest rate swaps was $4,347,283.
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.
46
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.

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. In accordance with ASC 326, “Financial
Instruments - Credit Losses”, 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.
47
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 unaudited consolidated financial
statements.
