Income taxes

Note 12 – Income taxes:

FREIT has elected to be treated as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and as such intends to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income (to maintain its status as a REIT) to its stockholders as dividends for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2023. FREIT distributed approximately 143.8% of its ordinary taxable income and 100% of its capital gains from the sale of the Maryland Properties to its stockholders as dividends for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes related to such ordinary taxable income and such gains were recorded in FREIT’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the six and three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022.

As of April 30, 2023, FREIT had no material uncertain income tax positions. The tax years subsequent to and including the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions.
