SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-K and Regulation S-X.

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP, their direct and indirect owned subsidiaries, and the accounts of joint ventures that are determined to be variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included.

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures and variable interest entities based on standards set forth in ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture or a variable interest entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company held variable interests in two variable interest entities and consolidated those entities. Refer to Note 3. “Variable Interest Entities” for additional information.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents represent current bank accounts and other bank deposits free of encumbrances and having maturity dates of three months or less from the respective dates of deposit. The Company limits cash investments to financial institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash.

Restricted cash includes escrow accounts for real property taxes, insurance, capital expenditures and tenant improvements, debt service and leasing costs held by lenders.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (amounts in thousands):


	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,117	$	714
Restricted cash	458		767
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash	$	2,575	$	1,481

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period’s presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB issued the following ASUs, which could have potential impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements:

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (“ASU 2021-05”). ASU 2021-05 amends the lease classification requirements for lessors to align them with practice under Topic 840. Lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease, if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease; (2) the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. ASU 2021-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2021-05 on January 1, 2022, did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU No. 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time through December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact of reference rate reform and whether it will apply any of these practical expedients.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset, measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Adjustments resulting from adopting ASU 2016-13 shall be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) Effective Dates (“ASU 2019-10”). ASU 2019-10 extended the mandatory effective date for smaller reporting companies to beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact of Financial Instruments - Credit Losses on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
