NOTE 2 - LIQUIDITY

 

Historically, our cash flows have been primarily generated from our Hotel and real estate operations. However, the responses by federal, state, and local civil authorities to the COVID-19 pandemic has had a material detrimental impact on our liquidity. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, our net cash flow provided by operations was $2,497,000. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our net cash flow used in operations was $8,009,000. We have taken several steps to preserve capital and increase liquidity at our Hotel, including implementing strict cost management measures to eliminate non-essential expenses, postponing capital expenditures, renegotiating certain reoccurring expenses, and temporarily closing certain hotel services and outlets.

 

 

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,928,000 and $6,808,000 as of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company had marketable securities, net of margin due to securities brokers, of $16,194,000 and $21,456,000 as of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. These marketable securities are short-term investments and liquid in nature.

 

On December 16, 2020, Justice and InterGroup entered into a loan modification agreement which increased Justice’s borrowing from InterGroup as needed up to $10,000,000. During the three months ending September 30, 2021, InterGroup advanced $1,500,000 to Justice per the aforementioned loan modification agreement, bringing the total amount due InterGroup to $8,150,000 at September 30, 2021. Portsmouth could amend its by-laws and increase the number of authorized shares in order to issue additional shares to raise capital in the public markets if needed. On September 7, 2021, the Board of InterGroup passed resolution to provide funding to Portsmouth for the working capital of the Hotel up to $16,000,000 if necessary.

 

In order to increase our liquidity position and to take advantage of the favorable interest rate environment, we refinanced our 151-unit apartment complex in Parsippany, New Jersey on April 30, 2020, generating net proceeds of $6,814,000. In June 2020, we refinanced one of our California properties and generated net proceeds of $1,144,000. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, we completed refinancing on six of our California properties and generated net proceeds of $6,762,000. During the three months ending September 30, 2021, we refinanced four of our California properties’ existing mortgages and obtained a mortgage note payable on one of our California properties, generating net proceeds totaling $3,161,000 as a result. We are currently evaluating other refinancing opportunities and we could refinance additional multifamily properties should the need arise, or should management consider the interest rate environment favorable. The Company has an uncollateralized $5,000,000 revolving line of credit from CIBC Bank USA (“CIBC”) and the entire $5,000,000 is available to be drawn down as of September 30, 2021 should additional liquidity be necessary.

 

On April 9, 2020, Justice entered into a loan agreement (“SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). Justice received proceeds of $4,719,000 from the SBA Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, Justice used the proceeds from the SBA Loan for payroll costs and other qualified expenses. The SBA Loan was scheduled to mature on April 9, 2022 with a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. On June 10, 2021, the SBA Loan was forgiven in full.

 

On February 3, 2021, Justice entered into a second loan agreement (“Second SBA Loan”) with CIBC Bank USA administered by the SBA. Justice received proceeds of $2,000,000 from the Second SBA Loan. As of June 30, 2021, Justice had used all proceeds from the Second SBA Loan primarily for payroll costs. The Second SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on February 3, 2026 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act. All payments of principal and interest are deferred until either: (a) if the SBA approves the forgiveness amount, the date the forgiveness amount is remitted by the SBA to CIBC; or (b) if Justice does not apply for forgiveness within 10 months after the last day of the covered period specified in the loan agreement or if the forgiveness amount is not approved, the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. All unforgiven portion of the principal and accrued interest will be due at maturity. Justice submitted its application for full loan forgiveness on September 3, 2021.

 

Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating and other expenditures, including management and franchise fees, corporate expenses, payroll and related costs, taxes, interest and principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, and repairs and maintenance of the Hotel.

 

Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities and capital improvements of the Hotel and our real estate properties. We will continue to finance our business activities primarily with existing cash, including from the activities described above, and cash generated from our operations. After considering our approach to liquidity and accessing our available sources of cash, we believe that our cash position, after giving effect to the transactions discussed above, will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for operating and other expenditures, including corporate expenses, payroll and related benefits, taxes and compliance costs and other commitments, for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements, even if current levels of low occupancy were to persist. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain existing leverage levels and the availability of liquidity, while minimizing operational costs. We believe that our cash on hand, along with other potential aforementioned sources of liquidity that management may be able to obtain, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, as well as our capital lease and debt obligations for at least the next twelve months and beyond. However, there can be no guarantee that management will be successful with its plan.
