AMREP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Three Months Ended July 31, 2019 and 2018

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by AMREP Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in one business segment: the real estate business. The Company has no foreign sales or activities outside the United States. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to reflect a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what may occur in future periods. Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to 2020 and 2019 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2020 and 2019 and all references to the first quarters of 2020 and 2019 mean the fiscal three month periods ended July 31, 2019 and 2018.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on July 26, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). Certain 2019 balances in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on net income or loss or shareholders’ equity.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the 2019 Form 10-K, except for those adopted as described below.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires fixed lease payments under tenant leases to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease where the Company is lessor. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In the quarter ended July 31, 2019, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000 as a result of adoption of ASU 2016-02. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

6

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The Company had no such tax effects and therefore the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant for companies with defined benefit retirement plans. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(2) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

(3) RESTRICTED CASH

The Company has entered into two Subdivision Improvement Agreements with the City of Rio Rancho, New Mexico. In connection with these agreements, the Company has signed a promissory note for each subdivision and deposited restricted funds in a reserve bank account for each subdivision. Following successful completion and acceptance of the Company’s performance in a subdivision, the applicable promissory note will be cancelled and the related restricted funds will be returned to the Company’s general cash.

During the three months ended July 31, 2019, $664,000 of cash was released from restrictions under the Subdivision Improvement Agreements. The total amount of restricted funds at July 31, 2019 was $305,000 and at April 30, 2019 was $969,000.

The following provides a reconciliation of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as reported in the consolidated balance sheets to the amount reported in the statement of cash flows for the three month period ending July 31, 2019:

As of April 30, 2019, the Company held approximately 12,000 acres of land in New Mexico classified as land held for long-term investment.

The warehouse and office facilities are located in Palm Coast, Florida, aggregate 204,000 square feet and are leased to a third party with a lease term that expires in 2029.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

AMREP Corporation (the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in one business segment: the real estate business. The Company has no foreign sales or activities outside the United States.

The following provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this report on Form 10-Q and with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). Many of the amounts and percentages presented in this Item 2 have been rounded for convenience of presentation. Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to 2020 and 2019 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2020 and 2019 and all references to the first quarters of 2020 and 2019 mean the fiscal three month periods ended July 31, 2019 and 2018.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on the accounting policies used and disclosed in the 2019 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and included as part of the 2019 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The preparation of those consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts or results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies, assumptions and estimates are described in Item 7 of Part II of the 2019 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in these critical accounting policies.

The significant accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K and in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. Information concerning the Company’s implementation and the impact of recent accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board is included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. The Company did not adopt any accounting policy in the three months ended July 31, 2019 that had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the following accounting policies effective May 1, 2019:

· In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In the quarter ended July 31, 2019, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires fixed lease payments under tenant leases to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

11

· In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

· In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The Company had no such tax effects and therefore the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Prior to April 26, 2019, the Company had been engaged in the fulfillment services business. On April 26, 2019, the fulfillment services business was sold (refer to Item 1 of Part I of the 2019 Form 10-K for more detail). The Company’s fulfillment services business has been classified as discontinued operations in the financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. Financial information from prior periods has been reclassified to conform to this presentation.

For the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a net loss of $196,000, or $0.02 per share, compared to net income of $61,000, or $0.01 per share, for the first quarter of 2019. Results from 2020 consisted entirely of continuing operations. For the first quarter of 2019, results consisted of (i) a net loss from continuing operations of $662,000, or $0.08 per share and (ii) net income from discontinued operations of $723,000, or $0.09 per share. A discussion of continuing operations follows.

Continuing Operations

Revenues were $4,767,000 for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $4,238,000 for the same period of 2019.

Revenues from land sales were $4,382,000 for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $4,181,000 for the same period of 2019. For the first quarter of 2020 and 2019, the Company’s land sales in New Mexico were as follows (dollars in thousands):

12

	Ended July 31, 2019						Ended July 31, 2018
	Acres Sold		Revenue		Revenue Per Acre		Acres Sold		Revenue		Revenue Per Acre
Three months:
Developed
Residential		10	$	4,382	$	438		11.5	$	4,150	$	361
Commercial		-		-		-		-		-		-
Total Developed		10		4,382		438		11.5		4,150		361
Undeveloped		-		-		-		0.8		31		39
Total		10		4,382		438		12.3	$	4,181	$	340

The average gross profit percentage on land sales in New Mexico before indirect costs was 17% for the first quarter of 2020 compared to 11% for the same period of 2019. The profit percentage increase is attributable to the demand for lots by builders. As a result of many factors, including the nature and timing of specific transactions and the type and location of land being sold, revenues, average selling prices and related average gross profits from land sales can vary significantly from period to period and prior results are not necessarily a good indication of what may occur in future periods.

Rent revenues were $341,000 for the first quarter of 2020. There were no comparable rents from the prior year due to the applicable lease agreements being signed in April 2019 as part of the sale of the Company’s fulfillment services business.

Other revenues were $44,000 for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $57,000 for the same period of 2019. Other revenues included fees and forfeited deposits from customers and, for the first quarter of 2019, the recognition of $57,000 of deferred revenue related to an oil and gas lease.

Operating expenses for real estate increased from $276,000 for the first quarter of 2019 to $559,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to increased employee bonuses, new allocations of certain employee costs to operating expenses, increased accruals for real estate taxes and increased health care benefits costs.

Real estate general and administrative expenses decreased from $188,000 for the first quarter of 2019 to $113,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to a decrease in legal fees. Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased from $927,000 for the first quarter of 2019 to $894,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to new allocations of certain employee costs to operating expenses and lower travel and legal expenses.

Interest income, net increased from $28,000 for the first quarter of 2019 to $124,000 for the same period of 2020, primarily due to management of excess funds in higher yielding savings accounts and a reduction in interest expense.

The Company had a benefit for income taxes of $134,000 in connection with a $330,000 loss from continuing operations before income taxes for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to a benefit for income taxes of $194,000 in connection with an $856,000 loss from continuing operations before income taxes for the same period of 2019. The benefit for income taxes included expenses related to federal income tax as well as the net tax benefits related to state operating losses. The change in the effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2020 from the first quarter of 2019 was due to the effect of discontinued operations.

In the quarter ended July 31, 2019, the Company initiated a limited offer for certain former employees with vested benefits in the Company’s defined benefit pension plan to elect to receive a lump sum payout of their pension benefit. The Company completed these lump sum payments from the pension plan in September 2019 to 309 former employees for approximately $7,200,000. The Company expects to recognize a non-cash pre-tax pension settlement charge in the quarter ending October 31, 2019 of approximately $2,960,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s primary sources of funding for working capital requirements are cash flow from operations, bank financing for specific real estate projects and existing cash balances. The Company’s liquidity is affected by many factors, including some that are based on normal operations and some that are related to the industry in which the Company operates and the economy generally. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s liquidity and capital resources as reflected in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2019 Form 10-K.

Operating Activities

Real estate inventory decreased from $57,773,000 at April 30, 2019 to $55,515,000 at July 31, 2019, primarily due to real estate land sales, which were offset in part by an increase in land development activity. Investment assets, net decreased from $17,227,000 at April 30, 2019 to $17,108,000 at July 31, 2019, primarily due to depreciation.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $2,964,000 at April 30, 2019 to $3,009,000 at July 31, 2019, primarily due to new accounting for additional lease liabilities at July 31, 2019, offset partially by a reduction in builder deposits in connection with sales activity. Trade accounts payable also declined as construction activity was slower during the period.

Financing Activities

Notes payable, net decreased from $1,319,000 at April 30, 2019 to $842,000 at July 31, 2019, primarily due to repayments made on financings for land development activity. The Company’s financing arrangements in effect during the first quarter of 2020 are described below:

· Refer to Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K for detail about the loan agreement entered into with Main Bank in July 2018 with respect to the development of certain planned residential lots within the Hawksite subdivision located in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The outstanding principal amount of the loan as of July 31, 2019 was $813,000 and the Company made principal repayments of $390,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2019. The interest rate on the loan at July 31, 2019 was 7.88%. The Company capitalized $20,000 and $0 of interest related to this loan in the three months ended July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018. In August 2019, the outstanding principal amount of the loan was fully repaid and the loan was terminated.

· Refer to Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K for detail about the loan agreement entered into with BOKF, NA dba Bank of Albuquerque (“BoABQ”) in December 2017 with respect to the development of certain planned residential lots within the Lomas Encantadas subdivision located in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The Company made principal repayments of $182,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2019. The Company capitalized $4,000 and $26,000 of interest related to this loan in the three months ended July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018. In June 2019, the outstanding principal amount of the loan was fully repaid and the loan was terminated.

· Refer to Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Form 10-K for detail about the loan agreement entered into with BoABQ in June 2019 with respect to the development of certain planned residential lots within the Lomas Encantadas subdivision located in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The outstanding principal amount of the loan as of July 31, 2019 was $28,000 and the Company made no principal repayments during the three months ended July 31, 2019. The total book value of the property within the Lomas Encantadas subdivision mortgaged to BoABQ under this loan was $922,000 as of July 31, 2019. The interest rate on the loan at July 31, 2019 was 5.39%. The Company capitalized less than $1,000 of interest related to this loan in the three months ended July 31, 2019. At July 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained within the loan documentation.

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures totaled $1,000 for the first quarter of 2020, primarily for computer equipment. There were no capital expenditures in the same period of 2019.

The Company received life insurance proceeds of $85,000 during the first quarter of 2019, which is reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The income associated with the life insurance proceeds was recognized in various years prior to the first quarter of 2019.

Statement of Forward-Looking Information

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking”, including statements contained in this report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to the Company’s shareholders and news releases. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, other written or oral statements, which constitute forward-looking statements, may be made by or on behalf of the Company. Words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “projects”, “forecasts”, “may”, “should”, variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult to predict. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or any person acting on behalf of the Company are qualified by the cautionary statements in this section. Many of the factors that will determine the Company’s future results are beyond the ability of management to control or predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding (1) the Company’s expected liquidity sources, (2) the availability of bank financing for projects, (3) the expected utilization of existing bank financing, (4) the effect of recent accounting pronouncements, (5) the timing of recognizing unrecognized compensation expense related to shares of common stock issued under the AMREP Corporation 2006 Equity Compensation Plan or the AMREP Corporation 2016 Equity Compensation Plan, (6) the future issuance of deferred stock units to directors of the Company, (7) the future business conditions that may be experienced by the Company and (8) the recognition of a non-cash pre-tax pension settlement charge in the quarter ending October 31, 2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. As a result of such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

Recently Adopted And Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”).  ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires fixed lease payments under tenant leases to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease where the Company is lessor. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In the quarter ended July 31, 2019, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000 as a result of adoption of ASU 2016-02. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting.  ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019.  The Company had no such tax effects and therefore the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.  ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant for companies with defined benefit retirement plans. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

(1)           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by AMREP Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in one business segment: the real estate business. The Company has no foreign sales or activities outside the United States. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to reflect a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what may occur in future periods.  Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to 2020 and 2019 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2020 and 2019 and all references to the first quarters of 2020 and 2019 mean the fiscal three month periods ended July 31, 2019 and 2018.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on July 26, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”).  Certain 2019 balances in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on net income or loss or shareholders’ equity.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the 2019 Form 10-K, except for those adopted as described below.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further guidance for lease transactions (collectively “ASU 2016-02”).  ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In addition, ASU 2016-02 requires fixed lease payments under tenant leases to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease where the Company is lessor. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments is recorded within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019, with the Company recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In the quarter ended July 31, 2019, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities amounted to $198,000 as a result of adoption of ASU 2016-02. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 by the Company did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting.  ASU 2018-07 addresses several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions, including share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 by the Company had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits but does not require the reclassification to retained earnings of certain tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act related to items in accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized or may be applied in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-02 was effective for the Company on May 1, 2019.  The Company had no such tax effects and therefore the adoption of ASU 2018-02 had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.  ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant for companies with defined benefit retirement plans. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
