Note 11 – Income taxes:

FREIT intends to distribute 100% of its ordinary taxable income to its shareholders as dividends for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2018. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes related to such ordinary taxable income was recorded in FREIT’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

There was no ordinary taxable income for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2017 for FREIT to distribute to its shareholders. As described in Notes 5 and 6 to FREIT’s condensed consolidated financial statements, FREIT completed a like-kind exchange with respect to the sale of the Maywood, New Jersey property, which was sold on June 12, 2017 resulting in a capital gain of approximately $15.4 million. The tax basis of Station Place in Red Bank, New Jersey, which was the replacement property in the like-kind exchange, is approximately $18.8 million lower than the acquisition cost of approximately $19.5 million recorded for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes related to such gain was recorded in FREIT’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of April 30, 2018, FREIT had no material uncertain income tax positions. The tax years subsequent to and including the fiscal year ended October 31, 2015 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which FREIT is subject.
