Going Concern
 
The Company
’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During fiscal
2017,
the Company has incurred operating losses from continuing operations, which has depleted working capital.
 
Management has successfully implemented several strategies aimed at alleviating the Company
’s working capital shortages for the duration of the decreased economic cycle.  The Company has decreased its administrative expenses in the last several quarters, and has also successfully refinanced nearly all of its bank debt with longer amortizations and reduced required payments.  Also, at this time,
two
of the Company’s real estate holdings are available for sale,
one
classified as discontinued operations assets, and
one
classified as held for lease, which, if sold, would decrease its bank borrowings and fund working capital for a time. Management believes these strategies will enable the Company to continue as a going concern.
