J. W. MAYS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. The July 31, 1996 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1996. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year ending July 31, 1997. The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported consolidated statements of operations and consolidated balance sheets and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Income (loss) per common share has been computed by dividing the income (loss) for the periods by the number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods, adjusted for the purchase of treasury stock. Shares used in computing the income (loss) per common share were 2,136,397 in each of the three months ended January 31, 1997 and 1996. 3. Marketable Securities - Other Investments: Effective August 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("FAS 115"). FAS 115 requires certain securities to be categorized as either trading, available for sale or held to maturity. Trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in income. Available for sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Held to maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Dividends and interest income are accrued as earned. Marketable Securities - Other Investments (continued)
As of January 31, 1997, the Company's marketable securities were classified as follows: Gross Gross Unrealized Unrealized Fair Cost Gains Losses Value ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Current Available for sale Equity securities $2,648,670 $98,566 $ - $2,747,236 Certificate of deposit 27,641 - - 27,641 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Total current $2,676,311 $98,566 $ - $2,774,877 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Noncurrent Held to maturity Corporate debt securities $98,388 $3,886 $ - $102,274 ============= ============= ============= ============= Investment income consists of the following: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended January 31, January 31, ------------------------------ ------------------------------ 1997 1996 1997 1996 ________ ________ ________ ________ Interest income $6,641 $10,214 $17,065 $20,619 Dividend income 59,093 54,643 110,525 104,547 (Loss) on sale of marketable securities (1,630) - (1,630) - ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Total $64,104 $64,857 $125,960 $125,166 ============= ============= ============= =============

(a)On August 17, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank wherein the bank approved a $1,500,000 loan facility for the Company to use to fund building construction/renovation costs to accommodate tenants under lease. The Company had taken down the $1,500,000 and repaid the amount on September 11, 1996 (see Note 4(b) below). There was no prepayment penalty for early payoff of the loan. (b)The Company, on September 11, 1996, closed a loan with a bank in the amount of $4,000,000, the loan to be secured by a first mortgage lien covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant, in a certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica property. The loan proceeds are to be utilized by the Company toward (a) payment in full of the outstanding term loan by the Company in favor of the same bank in the amount of $1,500,000 plus interest (see Note 4(a) above) and (b) its costs for the renovations to the portions of the premises in connection with the Company's sublease of a significant portion of the building. The interest rate on the loan is 8 1/2% for a period of five (5) years and six (6) months, with such rate to change on the first day of the sixty-seventh (67th) month of the term to a rate equal to the then prime rate plus 1/4%, fixed for the balance of the term. The loan is to become due and payable on the first day of the month following the expiration of ten (10) years and six (6) months from the closing date. During the first six (6) months of the term, the Company is to have the option to secure advances against the loan amount with the loan to convert to a ten (10) year term at the expiration of the initial six (6) month period thereof. As of January 31, 1997, construction period interest incurred amounted to $5,813 which amount was capitalized as part of the renovations. Payments are to be made, in arrears, on the first day of each and every month during the term, calculated (a) during the initial six (6) month period of the term, interest only, and (b) during the final ten (10) year period of the term, at the sum of the interest plus amortization sufficient to fully liquidate the loan over a fifteen (15) year period. As additional security, the Company conditionally assigned to the bank certain leases and rents on the premises, or portions thereof, now existing and will assign certain leases on the premises hereafter consummated. The Company has an option to prepay principal, in whole or in part, plus interest accrued thereon, at any time during the term, upon thirty (30) days prior notice to the bank, without premium or penalty. Other provisions of the loan agreement provide certain restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness and the sale or transfer of the Company's ground lease interest in the premises. (c)Mortgage is held by an affiliated corporation owned by members, including certain directors of the Company, of the family of the late Joe Weinstein, former Chairman of the Board of Directors. Interest and amortization of principal are paid quarterly. On September 6, 1995, the maturity date of the mortgage was extended to March 31, 1998. The interest rate of 10% continued until March 31, 1996 and from April 1, 1996 the interest rate was established at the bank's prevailing rate as at March 31, 1996, which was 7 3/8%. During the renewal period there will be no change in the constant quarterly payments of interest and principal in the amount of $37,263. (d)On October 28, 1994, the existing first mortgage loan balance on the Fishkill property was paid down by a $200,000 payment and the due date of the mortgage loan was extended for a period of five (5) years from November 1, 1994. The annual interest rate was reduced from 10% to 9% and the principal and interest payments are to be made in constant monthly amounts based upon a fifteen (15) year payout period. (e)The mortgage loan, which is self-amortizing, matures September 30, 2002. The loan is payable at an annual interest rate of 7%. Under the terms of the loan, constant monthly payments, including interest and principal, commenced April 1, 1994 in the amount of $33,767, until October 1, 1997, at which time the monthly payments of interest and principal increase to $36,540. 5.

* In fiscal 1964 the Company entered into a deferred compensation agreement with Max L. Shulman, its then Chairman of the Board. This agreement, as amended, provides for a total of $520,000 to be paid in monthly installments of $8,666.67 for a period of 60 months, payable upon the expiration of his employment, retirement or permanent disability as defined in the agreement, or death. Mr Shulman retired as an employee on December 31, 1996. **Does not include three irrevocable letters of credit totaling $440,000 provided by three tenants as lease security deposits. 6.

7. Payable to Securities Broker: The Company borrowed funds, payable on demand, from a securities broker. The loan balance at January 31, 1997 in the amount of $1,341,699, secured by the Company's marketable securities, accrues interest, which at January 31, 1997, was at the annual rate of 7 1/2%. 8. Unbilled Receivables: Unbilled receivables represent the excess of scheduled rental income recognized on a straight-line basis over rental income as it becomes receivable according to the provisions of each lease. 9. Employees' Retirement Plan: The Company sponsors a noncontributory Money Purchase Plan covering substantially all of its employees. Operations were charged $33,750 and $68,175 as contributions to the Plan for the three and six months ended January 31, 1997, respectively, and $35,000 and $70,000 as contributions to the Plan for the three and six months ended January 31, 1996, respectively. 10. Cash Flow Information: For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to consist of short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, which are readily convertible into cash. Supplemental disclosure:
Six Months Ended January 31, ------------------------------ 1997 1996 __________ __________ Interest paid $353,538 $341,827 Income taxes paid $50,489 $70,205
11. Financial Accounting Standards No. 121: In May 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("FAS 121"), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to be Disposed Of", effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. FAS 121 requires the recognition of an impairment loss related to long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company believes that the adoption of the new accounting standard will not have any effect on the consolidated financial statements. 12. Financial Instruments and Credit Risk Concentrations: Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of marketable securities-other investments, cash equivalents and receivables. Marketable securities-other investments and cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and instruments to minimize risk. The Company derives rental income from twenty-eight tenants, of which two tenants each accounted for more than 10% of rental income during the quarter ended January 31, 1997. The City of New York is one of the two tenants and the other tenant is 510 Fulton Street Realty Associates, the owners of which are long established in business. McCrory Stores Corporation ("McCrory"), which occupied space in the Company's Jowein Building in the Fulton Mall in downtown Brooklyn, New York, and whose lease, as amended, extended to April 29, 2010, filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in February 1992. McCrory rejected its lease, as amended, with the Company with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court effective January 31, 1994. The Company has filed a proof of claim with the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York in the total amount of $7,753,732 for damages arising from the rejection of the lease ("Lease Rejection Claim") and a proof of claim in the amount of $86,650 for pre-petition unpaid rent, which amount has been allowed in the reduced amount of $84,354.39, without prejudice to McCrory's right to assert other and further objections. The Company has also filed an administrative claim in the amount of approximately $296,000 ("Administrative Claim") for damages resulting from McCrory's failure to repair and maintain the premises as required by the lease. McCrory has filed an objection to the Company's Lease Rejection Claim and Administrative Claim, and asserts that no amount is due and owing. The Company has not included its claim against McCrory in its financial statements due to the pending litigation over the Lease Rejection Claim and Administrative Claim and the uncertainty of the amount that may ultimately be allowed and collected. The Company has leased approximately 69,000 square feet of the approximate 99,000 square feet of space surrendered by McCrory. The remander of the space of approximately 30,000 square feet is not leaseable due to the renovations required to accommodate six tenants where formerly there was one. The rental income to be derived from the six tenants over the terms of their leases will be approximately $5,040,000 less than the total rental income that would have been due from McCrory for the period February 1, 1994 through April 29, 2010, the termination date of the McCrory lease. Jamesway Corporation ("Jamesway"), which occupied retail space in the Fishkill, New York property and whose lease extended to January 31, 2005, filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on October 18, 1995. Jamesway rejected its lease for the Fishkill location with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, effective February 29, 1996 but continued occupancy until March 22, 1996. The Company has filed an unsecured claim in the amount of approximately $981,255 for damages resulting from the rejection of the lease and an administrative priority claim in the amount of approximately $189,000 for certain amounts due under the lease after the filing of Jamesway's Chapter 11 petition and for the costs of repairs resulting from Jamesway's failure to fulfill its repair and maintenance obligations under the lease. The Company has made no provision in its financial statements for the claims filed against Jamesway due to the uncertainty of the amount that may ultimately be allowed and collected, except for the pre-petition rental obligations claim of $31,971, which amount is included in the unsecured claim of approximately $981,255. 13.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Results of Operations: Three Months Ended January 31, 1997 Compared to the Three Months Ended January 31, 1996: In the three months ended January 31, 1997, the Company reported income in the amount of $99,877, or $.05 per share. The comparable 1996 quarter resulted in a loss of $166,598, or $.08 per share, after the pre-tax write-off of a bad debt amounting to $424,011 relating to the rejection by a tenant of its lease, discussed below. There was no comparable item in the 1997 three month period. Rental income in the current three months increased to $2,472,658 from $2,468,181 in the comparable 1996 three months. Real estate operating expenses increased to $1,539,028 from $1,506,188 in the 1996 quarter principally due to increased maintenance and fuel costs. Administrative and general expenses decreased to $462,803 from $891,624 principally due to the pre-tax write-off of the bad debt of $424,011 in the 1996 three month period, discussed below. The Company reports scheduled rental income recognized on a straight-line basis rather than rental income as it becomes receivable according to the provisions of the lease, in compliance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13. "Accounting for Leases". The excess of the scheduled rental income of Jamesway recognized on a straight-line basis over rental income reported through January 31, 1996, amounted to $424,011 and such amount was written off and classified as a bad debt. Depreciation and amortization expense in the current three months increased to $238,119 from $222,684 in the three months ended January 31, 1996 because of additional improvements to property. Interest expense exceeded investment income by $109,831 in the current quarter and by $108,283 in the comparable 1996 quarter, principally due to the increased interest on the broker loan discussed in Note 7 and the loan facility discussed in Notes 4(a) and (b) to Consolidated Financial Statements. Six Months Ended January 31, 1997 Compared to the Six Months Ended January 31, 1996: In the six months ended January 31, 1997, the Company reported income in the amount of $199,877, or $.09 per share. The comparable 1996 six month period resulted in a loss of $236,120, or $.11 per share, after the pre- tax write-off of a bad debt amounting to $424,011 relating to the rejection by a tenant of its lease, discussed above. There was no comparable item in the 1997 six month period. Rental income in the current six months increased to $4,914,667 from $4,494,435 in the comparable 1996 six months, primarily due to the addition of three tenants. Real estate operating expenses increased to $2,963,144 from $2,778,806 in the 1996 comparable period principally due to increased maintenance and fuel costs, offset in part, by an allowed credit for utility costs and a decrease in real estate taxes in the 1996 six month period. Administrative and general expenses decreased to $968,039 from $1,407,904 principally due to a pre-tax write-off of a bad debt of $424,011, in the 1996 six month period, discussed above, and a decrease in insurance and legal and professional costs.. Depreciation and amortization expense in the current six months increased to $471,587 from $439,768 in the six months ended January 31, 1996 because of additional improvements to property. Interest expense exceeded investment income in the amount of $226,020 in the current six month period and by $215,077 in the six months ended January 31, 1996 principally due to the increased interest on the broker loan discussed in Note 7 and the loan facility discussed in Notes 4(a) and (b) to Consolidated Financial Statements. Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Company has been operating as a real estate enterprise since the discontinuance of the retail department store segment of its operations on January 3, 1989. The leasing of 69,000 square feet of space in the Jowein Building located in the Fulton Mall in downtown Brooklyn, New York to three chain store tenants and two additional tenants for retail space and one tenant for office space, the leasing of 25,000 square feet to the U. S. Post Office in Fishkill, New York and the leasing to the State of New York of approximately 46,000 square feet of office space for two tenants in the Company's former store in Jamaica, New York, will provide additional working capital for the Company. The Jamaica leases are anticipated to commence in May 1997. To defray the costs of renovations for the State occupancy, the Company borrowed from a bank the principal amount of $2,500,000 (see Note 4(b) to Consolidated Financial Statements). As of January 31, 1997, the Company secured an advance of $800,000 against the principal amount of $2,500,000. The Company had working capital of $1,779,026, with a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 1.7 to 1 at January 31, 1997. Management considers current working capital and borrowing capabilities adequate to cover the Company's planned operating and capital requirements.
