RESOURCE AMERICA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2013
(unaudited)




NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Resource America, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: REXI) is a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through its real estate, financial fund management, and commercial finance operating segments. As a specialized asset manager, the Company seeks to develop investment funds for outside investors for which the Company provides asset management services, typically under long-term management and operating arrangements either through a contract with, or as the manager or general partner of, the sponsored fund. The Company limits its investment funds to investment areas where it owns existing operating companies or has specific expertise. The Company manages assets on behalf of institutional and individual investors and Resource Capital Corp. (“RSO”) (NYSE: RSO), a diversified real estate finance company that qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”).
The consolidated financial statements and the information and tables contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present the results of the interim periods presented. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations for the full year ending September 30, 2013.    
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements reflect the Company's accounts and the accounts of the Company's majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries. The Company also consolidates entities that are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where it has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of such entities. Once it is determined that the Company holds a variable interest in a VIE, management must perform a qualitative analysis to determine (i) if the Company has the power to direct the matters that most significantly impact the VIE's financial performance; and (ii) if the Company has the obligation to absorb the losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive the benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If the Company's interest possesses both of these characteristics, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and would be required to consolidate the VIE. The Company will continually assess its involvement with VIEs and reevaluate the requirement to consolidate them. The portions of these entities that the Company does not own are presented as noncontrolling interests as of the dates and for the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.
Variable interests in the Company's real estate segment have historically related to subordinated financings in the form of mezzanine loans or unconsolidated real estate interests. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had one such variable interest that it consolidated. The property underlying this loan was subsequently sold in November 2012 and the loan was resolved. See Note 8 for additional disclosures pertaining to VIEs.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Financing Receivables
Receivables from managed entities.  The Company performs a review of the collectability of its receivables from managed entities on a quarterly basis.  If upon review there is an indication of impairment, the Company will analyze the future cash flows of the managed entity.  With respect to the receivables from its commercial finance investment partnerships, this takes into consideration several assumptions by management, primarily concerning estimations of future bad debts and recoveries.  For the receivables from the real estate investment entities for which there are indications of impairment, the Company estimates the cash flows through the sale of the underlying properties, which is based on projected net operating income as a multiple of published capitalization rates, which is then reduced by the underlying mortgage balances and priority distributions due to the investors in the entity.
Real estate - rent receivables. The Company evaluates the collectability of the rent receivables for the properties it owns and fully reserves for amounts after they are 90 days past due. Amounts are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible.

Recent Accounting Standards
Newly-Adopted Accounting Principle
The Company’s adoption of the following standard during fiscal 2013 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows:
Comprehensive income (loss). In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an amendment to eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income (loss) as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The amendment requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders' equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income (loss) or in two separate but consecutive statements. In the two-statement approach, the first statement should present total net income (loss) and its components followed consecutively by a second statement that should present total other comprehensive income (loss), the components of other comprehensive income (loss), and the total of comprehensive income (loss). In December 2011, the FASB updated the guidance to defer the requirement related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. This guidance became effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2012 and the Company has presented the required disclosures.
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective
The FASB issued the following accounting standards which were not yet effective for the Company as of June 30, 2013:
Comprehensive income (loss). In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance that requires an entity to disclose information showing the effect of items reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income on the line items of net income. The Company plans to provide the enhanced footnote disclosure as required by this amendment beginning October 1, 2013.
In March 2013, the FASB issued guidance on a parent's accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2013. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Equity securities.  The Company holds approximately 2.8 million shares of RSO common stock (together with options to acquire 2,166 shares at an exercise price of $15.00 per share expiring in March 2015).  The Company also holds 18,972 shares of The Bancorp, Inc. ("TBBK") (NASDAQ: TBBK) common stock.  These investments are pledged as collateral for the Company’s secured corporate credit facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company purchased 10,000 shares of Resource Real Estate Diversified Income Fund, a new publicly traded investment entity that it sponsored and manages ("RREDX") (NASDAQ: RREDX), for $100,000.
CLO securities.  The collateralized loan obligation ("CLO") securities represent the Company’s retained equity interests in seven and four CLO issuers that it directly and/or through its joint venture has structured and managed at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively.  The fair value of these retained interests is impacted by the fair value of the investments held by the respective CLO issuers, which are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations and credit quality determinations. The Company is required to maintain a minimum investment of $2.0 million (par value) in the subordinated notes of one of the CLO issuers, Apidos CLO II.
Trading securities.  The Company began purchasing investment securities classified as trading securities during fiscal 2012. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had net realized gains from sales of trading securities of $1.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively, as well as, unrealized losses on these securities totaling $243,000 and unrealized gains of $666,000, respectively, which were included in Financial Fund Management Revenues on the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had unrealized gains on trading securities of $175,000.

The unrealized loss in RSO common stock reflected in the above table is considered to be a temporary impairment due to market factors and not reflective of credit deterioration. In making that determination, the Company considered its role as the external manager of RSO and the value of its management contract, which includes a substantial fee to the Company if it is terminated as the manager. As a consequence, and because of its intent and ability to hold its investment in RSO, the Company does not consider this unrealized loss to be an other-than-temporary impairment.    
 Other-than-temporary impairment losses. In the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded charges of $214,000 and $74,000, respectively, for the other-than-temporary impairment of certain of its investments in CLOs, primarily those with investments in bank loans.

In January 2013, the Company sold its 10% interest in a real estate joint venture to its partner for $3.0 million and recognized a gain of $1.6 million. The Company will continue to manage the asset and will receive property management fees in the future.
Two of the structured finance entities that hold investments in trust preferred assets (“Trapeza entities”) that have incentive distributions, also known as carried interests, are subject to a potential clawback to the extent that such distributions exceed the cumulative net profits of the entities, as defined in the respective partnership agreements (see Note 16).  The general partner of those entities is equally owned by the Company and its co-managing partner.  Performance-based incentive fees in interim periods are recorded based upon a formula as if the contract were terminated at that date.  On a annual basis (interim measurement date), the Company quantifies the cumulative net profits/net losses (as defined under the Trapeza partnership agreements) and allocates income/loss to the limited and general partners according to the terms of such agreements.
Included in investments in unconsolidated entities is the Company's $2.5 million investment in Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc. (“RRE Opportunity REIT”), a fund that is in the offering stage until December 2013. The Company accounts for its investment in RRE Opportunity REIT on the cost method since the Company owns less than 1% of the shares outstanding. The Company evaluates all of these investments for impairment on a quarterly basis. There were no identified events that had a significant adverse effect on these investments and, as such, no impairment has been recorded.    
Investment in Unconsolidated Loan Manager. Until the Company sold its Apidos Capital Management, LLC (“Apidos”) CLO business to CVC Capital Partners SICAV-FIS, S.A., a private equity firm (“CVC”) on April 17, 2012, the operations of Apidos were included in the Company's consolidated results. Thereafter, the Company has recorded its 33% equity share of the results of the joint venture, CVC Credit Partners, LLC ("CVC Credit Partners"), which includes the Apidos operations, in Financial Fund Management Revenues on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Included in costs and expenses for CVC Credit Partners for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 are offering costs associated with a new European investment fund that will hold sub-investment grade European debt.

As a part of the transactions in forming the CVC Credit Partners joint venture, the Company received a preferred interest in Apidos (which became a subsidiary of CVC Credit Partners) relating to incentive management fees on pre-joint venture CLOs managed by Apidos. The Company accounts for this interest, with a book value of $6.8 million at June 30, 2013, on the cost method. As the incentive fees are received, in accordance with its preferred interest, the Company receives a distribution of 75% of those amounts which will initially be recorded as income, net of any contractual amounts due to third-parties. On a quarterly basis, the Company will evaluate the investment for impairment by estimating the fair value of the expected future cash flows from the incentive management fees. If the estimated fair value is less than the cost basis of the interest, the preferred interest will be deemed to be impaired. If the Company determines that the shortfall is other-than-temporary, the impairment will be recorded as a reduction of the preferred interest by reducing the revenues previously recorded on these preferred shares. To the extent that the investment in preferred equity has been reduced to zero, all subsequent distributions will be recorded as income.

NOTE 8 − VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
In general, VIEs are entities in which equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company has variable interests in VIEs through its management contracts and investments in various securitization entities, including CDO issuers. Since the Company serves as the asset manager for the investment entities it sponsored and manages, the Company is generally deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. In the case of an interest in a VIE managed by the Company, the Company will perform an additional qualitative analysis to determine if its interest (including any investment as well as any management fees that qualify as variable interests) could absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This analysis considers the most optimistic and pessimistic scenarios of potential economic results that could reasonably be experienced by the VIE. Then, the Company compares the benefits it would receive (in the optimistic scenario) or the losses it would absorb (in the pessimistic scenario) as compared to all benefits and losses absorbed by the VIE in total. If the benefits or losses absorbed by the Company were significant as compared to total benefits and losses absorbed by all variable interest holders, then the Company would conclude it is the primary beneficiary.

In November 2012, the property underlying the loan was sold for a gain of $831,000 of which $793,000 was attributable to noncontrolling interests; as such, the Company no longer consolidated the real estate VIE.
VIEs not consolidated
The Company’s investments in RSO, and its investments in the Trapeza entities and asset-backed securities (“Ischus entities”), were all determined to be VIEs that the Company does not consolidate as it does not have the obligation of, or right to, losses or earnings that would be significant to those entities.  Except for those advances, the Company has not provided financial or other support to these VIEs and has no liabilities, contingent liabilities, or guarantees (implicit or explicit) related to these VIEs at June 30, 2013.

Credit Facilities
TD Bank, N.A. (“TD Bank”).  On November 19, 2012, the Company amended its agreement with TD Bank to extend the maturity of the TD Bank facility to December 31, 2014, to set the interest rate on borrowings as either (a) the prime rate of interest plus 2.25% or (b) the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 3% and to eliminate the previous floor of 6.0%. The LIBOR rate used varies from one to six months, depending upon the period of the borrowing, at the Company's election. The Company is charged an annual fee of 0.5% on the unused facility amount as well as a 5.25% fee on the $503,000 outstanding letter of credit.
Borrowings are secured by a first priority security interest in certain of the Company's assets and the guarantees of certain subsidiaries, including (i) the present and future fees and investment income earned in connection with the management of, and investments in, sponsored CDO issuers, (ii) a pledge of 18,972 shares of TBBK common stock, and (iii) the pledge of 2,080,482 shares of RSO common stock.  Availability under the facility is limited to the lesser of (a) 75% of the net present value of future RSO base management fees to be earned or (b) the maximum revolving credit facility amount.
There were no borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2013 on the secured credit facility and the availability on the facility was $7.0 million, as reduced for outstanding letters of credit. Weighted average borrowings on the line of credit for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 were $0 and $198,000 at weighted average borrowing rates of 0.0% and 3.2%. Weighted average borrowings on the line of credit for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012 were $4.0 million and $4.9 million at a weighted average borrowing rate of 6.0% for both periods, with effective interest rates of 11.2% and 10.5%, respectively. Weighted average borrowings for the term note portion of the facility (which was repaid in full by the Company in November 2011) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 were $259,000 at a weighted average borrowing rate of 6.0% and an effective interest rate of 38.2%.
Republic First Bank (“Republic Bank”). In February 2011, the Company entered into a $3.5 million revolving credit facility with Republic Bank.  The facility bears interest at the prime rate of interest plus 1% with a floor of 4.5%.  The loan is secured by a pledge of 700,000 shares of RSO stock and a first priority security interest in the office building the Company owns in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  Availability under this facility is limited to the lesser of (a) the sum of (i) 25% of the appraised value of the office building, based upon the most recent appraisal and (ii) 100% of the cash and 75% of the market value of the pledged RSO shares held in the pledged account; and (b) 100% of the cash and 100% of the market value of the pledged RSO shares held in the pledged account.  The Company also is charged an unused annual facility fee equal to 0.25%. In October 2012, the Company amended this facility to extend the maturity date to December 28, 2014. There were no borrowings under this facility during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and the availability as of June 30, 2013 was $3.5 million.
Senior Notes
In December 2012, the Company modified the terms of $10.0 million of its 9% Senior Notes that remain outstanding (following the partial repayment referred to below) to extend the maturity date from October 2013 to March 31, 2015. In connection with the modification, the Company paid a modification incentive payment equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of each note. The detachable 5-year warrants to purchase 3,690,195 shares of common stock issued with the original notes were unaffected and, as of June 30, 2013, 3,444,607 remain outstanding. The Company had accounted for these warrants as a discount to the original notes. Upon the modification and partial repayment of the Senior Notes in November 2011, the Company expensed the remaining $2.2 million of unamortized discount. The effective interest rates for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 were 9.9% and 9.6%, respectively. The effective interest rate (inclusive of the amortization of deferred finance fees and the discount for the warrants) for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012 were 9.3% and 14.3%, respectively. Until all of the Senior Notes are paid in full, retired or repurchased, the Company cannot declare or pay future quarterly cash dividends in excess of $0.03 per share without the prior approval of all of the holders of the Senior Notes unless basic earnings per common share from continuing operations from the preceding fiscal quarter exceed $0.25 per share.
Terminated and/or Transferred Facilities and Loans
Commercial Finance Debt. The Company was not an obligor or a guarantor of these facilities and these facilities were non-recourse to the Company, except for the obligation with respect to the Series 2010-2 term securitization (see Note 16). Due to the November 2011 deconsolidation of LEAF, the Company's commercial finance debt, as follows, is no longer included in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Securitization of leases and loans. On October 28, 2011, LEAF completed a $105.0 million securitization. A subsidiary of LEAF issued eight classes of notes which are asset-backed debt, secured and payable by certain assets of LEAF. The notes included interest rates ranging from 0.4% to 5.5%, rated by both Dominion Bond Rating Service, Inc. (“DBRS”) and Moody's Investors Services, Inc., and mature from October 2012 to March 2019. The weighted average borrowings for the period from October 1 to November 16, 2011 were $42.7 million, at a weighted average borrowing rate of 2.6% and an effective interest rate (inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs and interest rate swaps) of 5.6%.
Guggenheim Securities LLC (“Guggenheim”). At December 31, 2010, LEAF Financial Corporation ("LEAF Financial") had a short-term bridge loan with Guggenheim for borrowings up to $21.8 million. The bridge facility was repaid on January 4, 2011 and terminated on February 28, 2011. Beginning in January 2011, Guggenheim provided LEAF with a revolving warehouse credit facility with availability up to $110.0 million and committed to further expand the borrowing limit to $150.0 million. LEAF, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, issued to Guggenheim, as initial purchaser, six classes of DBRS-rated variable funding notes, with ratings ranging from “AAA” to “B”, for up to $110.0 million.  The notes were secured and payable only from the underlying equipment leases and loans.  Interest was calculated at a rate of 30-day LIBOR plus a margin rate applicable to each class of notes. The revolving facility ended on December 31, 2012 and the stated maturity of the notes is December 15, 2020, unless there is a mutual agreement to extend. The weighted average borrowings for the period from October 1 to November 16, 2011 (prior to the LEAF deconsolidation) were $68.8 million, at a weighted average borrowing rate of 4.2% and an effective interest rate of 5.1%.
Series 2010-2 term securitization. In May 2010, LEAF Receivables Funding 3, LLC, a subsidiary of LEAF (“LRF3”), issued $120.0 million of equipment contract-backed notes (“Series 2010-2”) to provide financing for leases and loans.  In the connection with the formation of LEAF in January 2011, RSO contributed the Series 2010-2 notes, along with the underlying lease portfolio, to LEAF. LRF3 is the sole obligor on these notes. The weighted average borrowings for the period from October 1 to November 16, 2011 were $70.1 million at a weighted average borrowing rate of 5.1% and an effective interest rate of 8.5%.
Note payable to RSO − commercial finance. On July 20, 2011, RSO entered into an agreement with LEAF pursuant to which RSO agreed to provide a $10.0 million loan to LEAF, of which $6.9 million was funded as of September 30, 2011, with additional funding of $3.1 million prior to the November 16, 2011 deconsolidation.  The loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 8.0% per annum on the unpaid principal balance, payable quarterly. The loan was secured by the commercial finance assets of LEAF and LEAF's interest in LRF3. In November 2011, RSO received $8.5 million from LEAF in payment of the outstanding balance and extinguished the loan.

Covenants
The TD Bank credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants, which are customary for the type and size of the facility, including debt service coverage and debt to equity ratios. The debt to equity ratio restricts the amount of recourse debt the Company can incur based on a ratio of recourse debt to net worth.
The mortgage on the Company's hotel property contains financial covenants related to the net worth and liquid assets of the Company. Although non-recourse in nature, the loan is subject to limited standard exceptions (or “carveouts”) which the Company has guaranteed.  These carveouts will expire as the loan is paid down over the next ten years.  The Company has control over the operations of the underlying property, which mitigates the potential risk associated with these carveouts and, accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.  To date, the Company has not been required to make any carveout payments.    
The Company was in compliance with all of its financial debt covenants as of June 30, 2013.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, inclusive of nonvested share-based awards that are entitled to receive non-forfeitable dividends.  The diluted earnings (loss) per share (“Diluted EPS”) computation takes into account the effect of potential dilutive common shares.  Potential common shares, consisting primarily of outstanding stock options, warrants and director deferred shares, are calculated using the treasury stock method.

During fiscal 2012, the Company agreed to advance up to $3.0 million to an affiliated real estate limited partnership under a revolving note, bearing interest at the prime rate.  Amounts drawn, which are due upon demand, were $2.6 million and $2.4 million as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, and are included in Receivables from managed entities and related parties. The Company recorded $18,000 and $54,000 of interest income on this loan during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $17,000 and $49,000 during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
NOTE 15 – FAIR VALUE
In analyzing the fair value of its assets and liabilities accounted for on a fair value basis, the Company follows the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities are categorized into one of three levels based on the assumptions (inputs) used in valuing the asset or liability. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 − Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. 
Level 2 − Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3 − Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and that are, consequently, not based on market activity, but upon particular valuation techniques.
There were no transfers between any of the Levels within the fair value hierarchy for any of the periods presented.
The following is a discussion of the assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis, as well as the valuation techniques applied to each fair value measurement and the estimates and assumptions used by the Company in those measurements.
Receivables from managed entities. The Company recorded a discount on certain of its receivable balances due from its real estate and commercial finance managed entities due to the extended term of the repayment to the Company. The discount was computed based on estimated inputs, including the repayment term (Level 3).
For the real estate managed entity receivables, the Company assumes the fair value of the real estate investment funds through the sale of the underlying properties. The net proceeds are applied first to the payoff of the lenders and then to the payment of distributions due to investors; any balance remaining is then available to repay the amounts due to the Company. The balance sheet date fair values of the properties are individually calculated based on capitalized net operating income, which are derived from capitalization rates from a third-party research firm (for the region in which the properties are located, based on actual sales data for properties sold during the past year) as applied to the Company's internally-generated projected operating results for each of the respective properties. These projections are historically based on and are adjusted for current trends in the marketplace and specific changes as applicable by property.

With respect to the commercial finance partnership receivables, management projects the availability of excess cash flow at the individual investment entity to repay the Company's receivable. In determining the excess cash flow, management starts with the gross future payments due on leases and loans for each of the funds, which are fixed and determinable, net of debt service and expected credit losses, which are estimated based on a migration analysis which is calculated based on historical data across the entire portfolio of leases and loans. This analysis estimates the likelihood that an account will progress through delinquency stages to ultimate charge-off. After an account becomes 180 or more days past due, any remaining balance is fully reserved, less an estimated recovery amount based on the historical trends of the funds (in the range of 9.9% to 12.7%). Cash is first applied to the payoff of the underlying principal and interest on debt used to purchase the portfolios. The projected cash flows also take into consideration the receipt of other income (such as late fees or residual gains), the payment of general and administrative expenses of the funds and distributions to limited partners. The remaining excess cash is then available to repay the amounts due to the Company.
Investment securities − equity securities. The Company uses quoted market prices (Level 1) to value its investments in RSO, TBBK and RREDX common stock.
Investment securities − trading securities. The Company uses yield and cash flow analysis models to estimate the fair value of its trading securities for which quoted market prices are not available (Level 3).
Investment securities − CLO securities. The fair value of CLO securities is based on internally generated expected cash flow models that require significant management judgments and estimates due to the lack of market activity and unobservable pricing inputs. Unobservable inputs into these models include default, recovery, discount and deferral rates, prepayment speeds and reinvestment interest spreads (Level 3).
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's CLO securities are prepayment rates, probability of default, loss severity rate, reinvestment price on underlying collateral and the discount rate. Significant increases (decreases) in the default or discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, whereas significant increases (decreases) in the recovery rate, prepayment rate or reinvestment price in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.  Generally, a change in the assumption used for the probability of default is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the discount rate and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for prepayment rates, recovery rates and reinvestment prices on underlying collateral. 
Investment in real estate. During fiscal 2012, the Company received an offer for the sale of one of its assets included in Investments in Real Estate. The offer was below the book value of the asset and, accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge during fiscal 2012 (Level 2). The property was subsequently sold in November 2012.
Investment in real estate - office building. The Company's investment in an office building, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was determined to be impaired during fiscal 2012. The Company determined the fair value of the building using an estimate of the loan to value based on stabilized projected cash flows (Level 3).
Investment in CVC Credit Partners. The Company utilized a third-party valuation firm to value its investment in CVC Credit Partners and its preferred interest as of its formation on April 17, 2012. The joint venture investment was valued at $28.6 million based on the weighted average of several calculations, including implied transaction, dividend discount, discounted cash flow, and guideline public company models. The valuation models required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which took into consideration the current economic environment and credit market conditions (Level 3).
Investment in Apidos-CVC preferred interest and contractual commitment. The Company's preferred interest in Apidos-CVC, initially valued at $6.8 million, as well as the corresponding contractual commitment, initially valued at $589,000, were both based on the present value of the underlying discounted projected cash flows of the legacy Apidos incentive management fees (Level 3).
Investment in LEAF. The Company's investment in LEAF, also based on a third-party valuation, was valued at $1.7 million as of its formation. The valuation utilized several approaches, including discounted expected cash flows, market approach and comparable sales transactions. These approaches required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which were based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions (Level 3).

For cash, receivables and payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The Company estimated the fair value of the real estate debt using current interest rates for similar loans. The Company estimated the fair value of the Senior Notes by applying the percentage appreciation in a high-yield fund with approximately similar quality and risk attributed to the Senior Notes. The carrying value of the Company's other debt was estimated using current interest rates for similar loans at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012.

NOTE 16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LEAF lease valuation commitment. In conjunction with the third-party equity investment in LEAF, the Company and RSO have undertaken a contingent obligation with respect to the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LRF3. To the extent that the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LRF3 is less than $18.7 million (the value of the equity of LRF3 on the date it was contributed by RSO to LEAF), as of the final testing date within 90 days of December 31, 2013, the Company and RSO have agreed to be jointly and severally obligated to contribute cash to LEAF to the extent of any shortfall. The LRF3 equity as of June 30, 2013 was in excess of this commitment and, therefore, the Company was not required to record a liability with respect to this obligation.
Limited loan guarantee. The Company and two of its commercial finance investment partnerships, Lease Equity Appreciation Fund I, L.P. (“LEAF I”) and Lease Equity Appreciation Fund II, L.P. (“LEAF II”), have provided a limited guarantee to a lender to the LEAF partnerships in exchange for a waiver of any existing defaulted loan covenants and certain future financial covenants. The loans mature at the earlier of (a) the maturity date (March 20, 2014 for LEAF I and December 21, 2013 for LEAF II), or (b) the date on which an event of default under the loan agreement occurs. The maximum guarantee provided by the Company is up to $3.7 million ($1.8 million for LEAF I and $1.9 million for LEAF II) as of June 30, 2013. If the Company were required to make any such payments under the guarantee in the future, it would have the option to either step in as the lender or otherwise make a capital contribution to the LEAF partnerships for the amount of the required guarantee payment. Under certain circumstances, the lender will also discount its loans by approximately $250,000 for LEAF I and $347,500 for LEAF II. Management has determined that, based on projected cash flows from the underlying lease and loan portfolios collateralizing the loans, there should be sufficient funds to repay the LEAF partnerships' outstanding loan balances and, accordingly, the Company was not required to record a liability with respect to the guarantee.
Broker-Dealer Capital Requirement.  Resource Securities serves as a dealer-manager for the sale of securities of direct participation investment programs, both public and private, sponsored by subsidiaries of the Company who also serve as general partners and/or managers of these programs.  Additionally, Resource Securities serves as an introducing agent for transactions involving sales of securities of financial services companies, REITs and insurance companies for the Company and for RSO.  As a broker-dealer, Resource Securities is required to maintain minimum net capital, as defined in regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which was $133,000 and $100,000 as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, Resource Securities net capital was $639,000 and $447,000, respectively, which exceeded the minimum requirements by $506,000 and $347,000, respectively.

Clawback liability.  On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, the general partners of two of the Trapeza entities, which are owned equally by the Company and its co-managing partner, repurchased substantially all of the remaining limited partnership interests in the two Trapeza entities with potential clawback liabilities for $4.4 million.  The Company contributed $2.2 million (its 50% share).  The clawback liability was $1.2 million at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012.
Legal proceedings. In September 2011, First Community Bank, (“First Community”) filed a complaint against First Tennessee Bank and approximately thirty other defendants consisting of investment banks, rating agencies, collateral managers, including Trapeza Capital Management, LLC (“TCM”), and issuers of CDOs, including Trapeza CDO XIII, Ltd. and Trapeza CDO XIII, Inc. TCM and the Trapeza CDO issuers are collectively referred to as Trapeza. The complaint includes causes of action against TCM for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, violation of the Tennessee Securities Act of 1980 and unjust enrichment. First Community alleges, among other things, that it invested in certain CDOs, that the defendant rating agencies assigned inflated investment grade ratings to the CDOs, and that the defendant investment banks, collateral managers and issuers (including Trapeza) fraudulently and/or negligently made “materially false and misleading representations and omissions” that First Community relied on in investing in the CDOs, including both written representations in offering materials and unspecified oral representations. Specifically, with respect to Trapeza, First Community alleges that it purchased $20.0 million of notes in the D tranche of the Trapeza CDO XIII transaction from J.P. Morgan. The Court dismissed this matter in June 2012. First Community filed a Notice of Appeal in July 2012.
The Company is also a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. Management believes that none of these actions, individually or, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or operations.
In July 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with one of the tenant-in-common ("TIC") real estate programs it sponsored and manages.  This agreement requires the Company to fund up to $1.9 million for capital improvements for the TIC property over the next two years.  The Company has advanced funds totaling $1.7 million as of June 30, 2013, which is included in Investments in real estate on the consolidated balance sheets.
The liabilities for the real estate commitments will be recorded in the future as amounts become due and payable.
General corporate commitments. The Company is also party to employment agreements with certain executives that provide for compensation and other benefits, including severance payments under specified circumstances.
As of June 30, 2013, except for the clawback liability recorded for the two Trapeza entities and executive compensation, the Company did not believe it was probable that any payments would be required under any of its commitments and contingencies and, accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations were recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

In viewing its segment operations, management excludes the pretax (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.  However, these interests are included from income (loss) from operations as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be deducted to compute income (loss) from operations as reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Geographic information.  There were no revenues generated from the Company's European operations during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Included in segment assets as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 were $590,000 and $559,000, respectively, of European assets.
Major customer.  During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, the total of management, incentive and other fees that the Company received from RSO were 19% and 23%, respectively. RSO fees represented 30% and 24% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, of the Company's total consolidated revenues.  These fees have been reported as revenues by each of the Company’s operating segments.
NOTE 18 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events and determined that no events have occurred which would require an adjustment to the consolidated financial statements.



ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Overview
We are a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through our real estate, financial fund management and commercial finance subsidiaries as well as our joint ventures. As a specialized asset manager, we seek to develop investment funds for outside investors for which we provide asset management services, typically under long-term management arrangements either through a contract with, or as the manager or general partner of, our sponsored investment funds. We typically maintain an investment in the funds we sponsor. As of June 30, 2013, we managed $16.1 billion of assets.
We limit our fund development and management services to asset classes where we own existing operating companies or have specific expertise. We believe this strategy enhances the return on investment we can achieve for our funds. In our real estate operations, we concentrate on the ownership, operation and management of multifamily and commercial real estate and real estate mortgage loans including whole mortgage loans, first priority interests in commercial mortgage loans, known as A notes, subordinated interests in first mortgage loans, known as B notes, mezzanine loans, investments in discounted and distressed real estate loans and investments in “value-added” properties (properties which, although not distressed, need substantial improvements to reach their full investment potential). In our financial fund management operations, we concentrate on bank loans, trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies, and asset backed securities, or ABS.
In our real estate segment, we have focused our efforts primarily on acquiring and managing a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate and real estate related debt that has been significantly discounted due to the effects of current economic conditions and high levels of leverage. We expect to continue to expand this business by raising investor funds through our retail broker channel for investment programs, principally through Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc., which we refer to as RRE Opportunity REIT.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we launched Resource Real Estate Diversified Income Fund , or RREDX, a publicly-offered, diversified, closed-end management investment company. Its focus will be to invest at least 80% of assets in real estate and real estate related industry securities, primarily in income-producing equity and debt securities. We purchased 10,000 shares of RREDX for $100,000.
In January 2013, we sold our 10% interest in a real estate joint venture for $3.0 million. In conjunction with the sale, we recognized a gain of $1.6 million and reversed a $1.0 million provision for credit losses related to receivables from the joint venture that were previously deemed to be uncollectible. In addition, we reversed a $1.5 million provision related to the collectability of receivables from other real estate investment entities due to improvements in the projected cash flows from the fund investments.
In our financial fund management segment, our recent focus has primarily been the sponsorship and management of collateralized debt and loan obligation issuers, or CDOs and CLOs. On April 17, 2012, we completed the sale of 100% of our equity interests in Apidos Capital Management, LLC, or Apidos, our CLO management subsidiary, to CVC Capital Partners SICAV-FIS, S.A., a private equity firm, or CVC. In connection with the transaction, we received (a) $25.0 million in cash before transaction costs, (b) partnership interests in a joint venture, CVC Credit Partners, L.P., or CVC Credit Partners, that includes the Apidos portfolios as well as the portfolios contributed by CVC, and (c) we retained a preferred equity interest which entitles us to receive 75% of the incentive management fees from the legacy Apidos portfolios that were previously managed by us and are now managed by CVC Credit Partners. We recorded a $54.5 million net gain on the sale during fiscal 2012. Through our new joint venture, we have closed four CLOs (total of approximately $1.8 billion par value) since its formation last year. In June 2013, CVC Credit Partners completed a public offering of Credit Partners European Opportunities Limited, an investment vehicle providing investors access to the sub-investment grade European debt markets. The offering raised €74.7 million and £150.8 million before transaction fees and expenses. Euro denominated shares will trade under the symbol "CCPE" and Sterling denominated shares will trade under the symbol "CCPG" on the London Stock Exchange.
We currently account for our interests in LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc., or LEAF, as an equity method investment. In addition, we have recorded provisions for credit losses of $1.5 million and $8.9 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 on our receivables due from three of our commercial finance investment funds based on reductions in their projected cash flows.
    



We had income from continuing operations before taxes of $37,000 and losses of $501,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013. In the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1.5 million which reflects the greater impact of expected tax benefits, specifically the dividend received deduction on taxable earnings from CVC Credit Partners and state net operating losses, relative to our projected pre-tax earnings. We recorded consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders of $1.5 million and $819,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013.


Assets Under Management
We increased our assets under management by $1.1 billion to $16.1 billion at June 30, 2013 from $15.0 billion at June 30, 2012. The following table sets forth information relating to our assets under management by operating segment (in millions, except percentages) (1):

We describe how we calculate assets under management in the notes to the third table of this section.
(2)
The increase is primarily due to to the issuance of four new Apidos CLOs ($1.8 billion), and the addition of a London Stock Exchange listed investment company ($456.0 million), both managed through CVC Credit Partners. These increases were offset, in part, by reductions in the eligible collateral bases of the ABS ($251.1 million), corporate loan ($820.6 million) and trust preferred portfolios ($305.2 million) resulting from liquidations, paydowns, call, defaults and sales.
Our assets under management are primarily managed through various investment entities including CDOs and CLOs, public and private limited partnerships, tenant-in-common, or TIC, property interest programs, two real estate investment trusts, or REITs, and other investment funds. All of our operating segments manage assets on behalf of Resource Capital Corp., or RSO. The following table sets forth the number of entities we manage by operating segment:

the acquisition, ownership and management of portfolios of discounted real estate and real estate related debt, which we have acquired through three sponsored real estate investment entities as well as through joint ventures with institutional investors;
the management of sponsored real estate investment entities that principally invest in multifamily housing;
the management, principally for RSO, of general investments in commercial real estate debt, including first mortgage debt, whole loans, mortgage participations, B notes, mezzanine debt and related commercial real estate securities; and
to a significantly lesser extent, the management and resolution of a portfolio of real estate loans and property interests that we acquired at various times between 1991 and 1999, which we collectively refer to as our legacy portfolio.

We support our real estate investment funds by making long-term investments in them.  In addition, from time to time, we make bridge investments in the funds to facilitate acquisitions.  We record losses on these equity method investments primarily as a result of depreciation and amortization expense recorded by the property interests. Fee income can be highly variable and, for fiscal 2013, depends upon the success of RRE Opportunity REIT and the timing of its acquisitions.

We generally consolidate a variable interest entity, or VIE, when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the entity.
Revenues − Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012
Revenues from our real estate operations increased $1.2 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  We attribute the increases primarily to the following:
Management fees - increased by $1.0 million and $6.7 million, respectively, principally due to the following:
a $1.1 million and $2.3 million increase, respectively, in asset management fees, reflecting a $981,000 and $2.1 million increase in broker-dealer manager fees earned in conjunction with an increase in the funds raised for RRE Opportunity REIT;
a $531,000 and $1.6 million increase, respectively, in property management fees earned by our property manager, Resource Residential, reflecting a 1,113 unit increase (6%) in multifamily units under management to 19,010 units at June 30, 2013 from 17,897 units at June 30, 2012; and
a $630,000 decrease and a $2.8 million increase, respectively, in RSO management fees. The base management fee increased by $1.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively, due to the increase in the equity of RSO upon which this fee is based. We also earned incentive management fees of $0 and $2.6 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $1.8 million and $2.2 million for the same periods last year. The incentive management fees are based on the adjusted operating earnings of RSO, which varies from period to period.
    



Other revenues - increased by $199,000 and $666,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, principally due to the following:
a $2.2 million increase in gains and fees on resolution of loans and investment entities for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. In January 2013, we sold our 10% interest in a real estate joint venture and recognized a gain of $1.6 million. In October 2012, we sold a commercial property located in Elkins, West Virginia, which was consolidated through a VIE and recognized a gain of $831,000 (of which $793,000 was attributable to noncontrolling interests); and
a $139,000 increase and a $1.4 million decrease, respectively, in fee income in connection with the purchase and third-party financing of properties through our real estate investment entities, as follows:
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, we earned $1.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in fees primarily from the following activities:
the acquisition of three and ten properties (valued at $45.8 million and $93.3 million, respectively); and
the sale of one and four properties (valued at $10.2 million and $39.3 million, respectively) and
the refinancing of one property.
In comparison, during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, we earned $1.4 million and $4.5 million, respectively, in fees primarily from the following activities:
the acquisition of one property (valued at $41.3 million) during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and four properties and two loans (valued at $87.8 million) during the nine months ended June 30, 2012; and
the sale of three properties (valued at $44.0 million), including a promoted return of $1.2 million, and two loans (valued at $920,000) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012; and
the refinancing of three properties.
a $35,000 decrease and a $372,000 increase, respectively, in the equity in losses of unconsolidated entities. The nine months ended June 30, 2012 included a $750,000 gain in conjunction with the release of funds from escrow related to the fiscal 2011 sale of a Washington, DC office building held by one of our legacy portfolio investments.
Costs and Expenses − Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012
Costs and expenses of our real estate operations increased $1.5 million (20%) and $4.3 million (20%), respectively. We attribute these changes primarily to the following:
a $788,000 and $2.1 million increase, respectively, in general and administrative expenses principally related to a $1.1 million and $2.1 million increase, respectively, in wages and benefits. The three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 reflect the increase in wages and benefits allocated to our real estate segment in conjunction with the increase in its operating activities as well as the additional staffing required to manage the increased properties under management and to enhance our fundraising capabilities at our broker-dealer Resource Securities, Inc.; and
a $509,000 and $1.6 million increase, respectively, in Resource Real Estate Management, Inc. ("Resource Residential") expenses primarily due to increased wages and benefits as well as information technology expenses due to the increased number of properties under management.
Results of Operations:  Financial Fund Management
General. We conduct our financial fund management operations primarily through six separate operating entities:
CVC Credit Partners, a joint venture between us and CVC, finances, structures and manages investments in bank loans, high yield bonds and equity investments through CLO issuers, managed accounts and a credit opportunities fund.

In April 2012, we sold 100% of Apidos to CVC and retained a 33% interest in CVC Credit Partners, which manages the former Apidos portfolio as well as the portfolio contributed by CVC.

In our financial fund management operating segment, we earn monthly fees on assets managed on behalf of institutional and individual investors as follows:
Collateral management fees − we receive fees for managing the assets held by CLO and CDO issuers we have sponsored, including subordinate and incentive fees. These fees vary by issuer, with our annual fees ranging between 0.1% and 0.25% of the aggregate principal balance of the eligible collateral owned by the issuers. The indentures to the notes require that certain overcollateralization test ratios, or O/C ratios, be maintained. O/C ratios measure the ratio of assets (collateral) to liabilities (notes) of a given issuer. Losses incurred on collateral due to payment defaults, payment deferrals or rating agency downgrades reduce the O/C ratios. If specified O/C ratios are not met by an issuer, subordinate or incentive management fees, which are discussed in the following sections, are deferred and interest collections from collateral are applied to outstanding principal balances on the notes, typically in order of seniority.
Administration fees − we receive fees for managing the assets held by our company-sponsored partnerships and, through April 2012, our credit opportunities fund (which is now being managed by CVC Credit Partners). These fees vary by limited partnership or fund, with our annual fee ranging between 0.75% and 2.00% of the partnership or fund capital balance.
Based on the terms of our general partner interests, two of the Trapeza partnerships we manage as general partner include a clawback provision.
We discuss the basis for our fees and revenues for each area in more detail in the following sections.
Our financial fund management operations historically have depended upon our ability to sponsor and manage CLO and CDO issuers. During the past several years, the market for CDOs had been non-existent and had been extremely limited for CLOs. In fiscal 2012, the market for CLO issuances improved dramatically. As a result, in October 2011, we were able to sponsor Apidos CLO VIII, the first such deal we closed since fiscal 2007. Since its formation, CVC Credit Partners has closed four CLOs with a combined par value of approximately $1.8 million, and completed a public offering of Credit Partners European Opportunities Limited ($456.0 million) which will invest in sub-investment grade European debt securities. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, CVC Credit Partners closed Apidos CLO XIV (par value $617.0 million).



CVC Credit Partners
Through CVC Credit Partners, we and our joint venture partner have sponsored, structured and/or currently manage 22 CLO issuers for institutional and individual investors and RSO. These joint venture CLO issuers, accounts and funds hold approximately $9.0 billion in U.S. and European bank loans and corporate bonds at June 30, 2013, of which $2.5 billion are managed on behalf of RSO.
Under our former Apidos business, we derived revenues through base and subordinate management fees. Base management fees varied by CLO issuer (ranged between 0.01% and 0.15% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CLO issuers). Subordinate management fees, which also varied by CLO issuer (ranged between 0.04% and 0.40% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CLO issuers), were subordinated to debt service payments on the CLOs. In connection with the sale of Apidos, we retained the right to 75% of the incentive management fees earned by the legacy Apidos CLOs.  In January and April 2013, we received $409,000 and $705,000, respectively, for our share of the incentive fee payments from three of the legacy Apidos CLOs.
As a result of the sale and resulting deconsolidation of Apidos, we no longer reflect the revenues and expenses of the Apidos business in our consolidated results, and instead record our 33% equity interest in the operations of CVC Credit Partners.
Trapeza
In our Trapeza operations, we sponsored, structured and currently co-manage 13 CDO issuers holding approximately $3.4 billion in trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies.
We own a 50% interest in an entity that manages 11 Trapeza CDO issuers and a 33.33% interest in another entity that manages two Trapeza CDO issuers. We also own a 50% interest in the general partners of the limited partnerships that own the equity interests of five Trapeza CDO issuers. Additionally, as part of our sponsorship and management interest, we hold limited partnership interests in each of these limited partnerships. On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, those general partners repurchased substantially all of the remaining limited partnership interests in two of the Trapeza entities.
We derive revenues from our Trapeza operations through base management fees. Base management fees vary by CDO issuer, but range from between 0.10% and 0.25% of the aggregate principal balance of the eligible collateral held by the CDO issuers. These fees are shared with our co-sponsors.
Ischus
We sponsored, structured and/or currently manage nine CDO issuers for institutional and individual investors, which hold approximately $1.1 billion in primarily real estate ABS including RMBS, CMBS and credit default swaps.
We derive revenues from our Ischus operations through base management fees. Base management fees vary by CDO issuer, ranging from between 0.10% and 0.20% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CDO issuer.
Company-Sponsored Partnerships
We sponsored, structured and, through RFIG, currently manage seven affiliated partnerships for individual and institutional investors, which hold approximately $65.3 million of investments in financial institutions. We derive revenues from these operations through annual management fees ranging from 0.75% to 2.0% of the equity invested in these partnerships. As part of our sponsorship, management and general partnership interests, we hold limited partnership interests in these partnerships. We may receive a carried interest of up to 20% upon meeting specific investor return rates.
Through our Resource Capital Markets group, we engage in structured finance security trading, both as an agent through Resource Securities, and for our own account. We earn introductory agent fees which are negotiated on a deal-by-deal basis. In our own trading portfolio, we buy and sell structured finance securities and record both unrealized and realized gains and losses which are reflected in Financial Fund Management revenues.

Fees and/or reimbursements that we receive vary by transaction and, accordingly, there may be significant variations in the revenues we recognize from our financial fund management operations from period to period.
Revenues − Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012
Revenues from our financial fund management operations decreased $546,000 (18%) to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. We attribute the decrease primarily to the following:
a $584,000 decrease in fund management fees, principally due to a $565,000 decrease in CLO collateral management and partnership management fees as a result of the sale of Apidos;
a $988,000 decrease in incentive management fees earned from managing a trading portfolio on behalf of RSO which varies by quarter based on transactional activity;
a $98,000 decrease in introductory agent fees as a result of fees earned in connection with eight structured security transactions with an average fee of $20,000 during fiscal 2013 as compared to 15 structured security transactions with an average fee of $17,000 for the prior year period; and
a $669,000 decrease in earnings on unconsolidated entities, primarily due to the up-front transaction costs associated with the public offering of CVC Credit Partners European Opportunities Limited, a European investment vehicle, listed on the London Stock Exchange, which closed in June 2013.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
a $705,000 increase in fund management incentive fees reflecting payments received in connection with retaining 75% of the incentive management fees earned by the legacy Apidos CLOs;
a $81,000 increase in RSO management fees, primarily related to a new oversight fee arrangement for our management of an RSO portfolio of life insurance policies;
a $788,000 increase in realized and unrealized gains and interest recorded on our trading securities portfolio; and
a $149,000 increase in our fair value adjustments recorded for our limited general partner interests in unconsolidated company-sponsored partnerships; the value of these partnerships depends on market conditions and may vary significantly from period to period.





Costs and Expenses − Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012
Costs and expenses of our financial fund management operations decreased $1.3 million (43%) for the three months ended June 30, 2013. General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.0 million principally due to a $844,000 decrease in incentive pay compensation related to the management of a trading portfolio on behalf of RSO. Other expenses decreased $263,000 due primarily due to a reduction in allocated rent expenses, and the reimbursement of technology and and other general and administrative expenses.
Revenues − Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012
Revenues from our financial fund management operations decreased $6.5 million (41%) to $9.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 from $15.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. We attribute the decrease primarily to the following:
a $6.6 million decrease in fund management fees, principally due to a $6.4 million decrease in CLO collateral management and partnership management fees as a result of the sale of Apidos;
a $744,000 decrease in RSO management fees, reflecting a $1.0 million decrease in RSO base and incentive management fees due to the sale of Apidos, offset by a $293,000 increase in fees related to a new oversight fee charged to RSO for our management of an RSO portfolio of life insurance policies;
a $3.5 million decrease in incentive management fees earned from managing a trading portfolio on behalf of RSO, which varies by quarter based upon transactional activity;
a $131,000 decrease in our share of realized and unrealized fair value adjustments recorded relative to our limited and general partner interests held in unconsolidated company-sponsored partnerships, the value of which depends on market conditions and may vary significantly year to year.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
a $1.1 million increase in fund management incentive fees reflecting payments received in connection with retaining 75% of the incentive management fees earned by the legacy Apidos CLOs;
a $778,000 increase in earnings on unconsolidated entities reflecting the results of our joint venture partnership with CVC which commenced in April 2012; and
a $2.5 million increase in realized and unrealized gains, and interest recorded on trading securities, due to increased activity;
a $56,000 net increase in earnings from seven unconsolidated CLO issuers invested in bank loans we previously sponsored and manage, primarily due to four CLO equity purchases since July 2012.
Costs and Expenses − Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012
Costs and expenses of our financial fund management operations decreased $7.9 million (60%) for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. General and administrative expenses decreased by $7.2 million principally due to a $5.2 million decrease in compensation corresponding with the reduced number of employees in connection with the sale of Apidos, and a $2.2 million decrease in incentive related pay in connection with the management of a trading portfolio on behalf of RSO. Other expenses decreased $700,000 primarily due to a reduction in allocated rent expenses, and a sharing arrangement with RSO on financial software and other general and administrative expenses.

Results of Operations:  Commercial Finance
In January 2011, we contributed the leasing origination and servicing platform of LEAF Financial to LEAF to facilitate outside investment in our commercial finance business. RSO also contributed assets and cash to LEAF, and Guggenheim Securities LLC, or Guggenheim, provided a credit facility for use in LEAF's originations. LEAF Financial retained the management of four equipment leasing partnerships, for which LEAF is the sub-servicer. As a result of the investment in LEAF by a third-party private investment firm in November 2011, we determined that we no longer controlled LEAF and, accordingly, it was deconsolidated from our financial statements. Subsequently, we have recorded our retained interest in LEAF on the equity method of accounting.
The commercial finance assets we manage through LEAF increased by $26.0 million to $554.0 million as compared to $528.0 million at June 30, 2012. This increase reflects a $127.0 million reduction in assets we managed for our four investment partnerships due to the natural runoff of the lease portfolios, which was offset by a $153.0 million increase in the LEAF portfolio. As of June 30, 2013, LEAF managed approximately 55,000 leases and loans for itself and our investment partnerships, with an average original finance value of $24,000 and an average term of 57 months, as compared to approximately 58,000 leases and loans with an average original finance value of $25,000 and an average term of 58 months as of June 30, 2012.

During fiscal 2012, our share of LEAF's losses reduced our investment in that entity to zero, such that we will not incur any additional equity losses in LEAF. However, we continue to record our share of any charges that may be recorded in LEAF's accumulated other comprehensive income relating to its hedging activities.
We continue to consolidate the operating results of LEAF Financial. Commencing December 1, 2010, we agreed to waive all future management fees from our commercial finance investment partnerships due to their reduced equity distributions as a result of the impact of the recession on their respective cash flows. Accordingly, we waived $483,000 and $1.9 million of fund management fees from these entities during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $1.1 million and $3.8 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

Results of Operations:  Other Costs and Expenses
General and Administrative Expenses
Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012. General and administrative costs were $2.2 million and $6.6 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, a decrease of $414,000 (16%) and $1.4 million (17%) as compared to $2.6 million and $7.9 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These decreases reflect the increased allocation of corporate general and administrative costs to our operating segments, principally real estate, in conjunction with the increase in the respective operating activities at those entities. In addition, stock-based compensation decreased by $187,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the prior year period.
Restructuring Expenses
During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a $365,000 restructuring charge for severance and benefits for terminated employees. The decrease in staffing levels reflected our decreased overhead requirements as a result of the sale of Apidos and the recapitalization of LEAF.

We have estimated, based on projected cash flows, that three of the commercial finance partnerships that we sponsored and managed will not have sufficient funds to pay a portion of their accrued management fees and, accordingly, we recorded provisions of $1.5 million and $8.9 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $5.7 million and $10.5 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. As a result of the sale of our interest and full repayment of accrued management fees in a real estate joint venture, we reversed a $1.0 million provision previously recorded. Additionally, due to increases in the projected cash flows of the real estate investment partnerships, we reversed an additional $1.5 million provision for credit losses during the nine months ended June 30, 2013. These provision decreases were offset, in part, by the $199,000 and $656,000 reserve we recorded during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 against a receivable relating to the sale of Apidos.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation expense decreased by $39,000 and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods. The decline for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 reflects the November 2011 deconsolidation of LEAF. The following table reflects the detail of our depreciation expense (in thousands):

Net Other-than-Temporary Impairment Charges on Investment Securities
During the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded $214,000 and $74,000, respectively, of other-than-temporary impairment charges on certain of our CLO investments, which primarily invested in bank loans.
Interest Expense
Interest expense includes the non-cash amortization of debt issuance costs as well as discounts related to the following: (a) the value of the warrants issued to the original holders of our Senior Notes, (b) warrants that LEAF issued in connection with its credit facility, and (c) LEAF's securitized borrowings and the corresponding issuance of equipment-backed notes. We recorded interest expense for LEAF for the period prior to its deconsolidation in November 2011. The following table reflects interest expense as reported by segment (in thousands):

In November 2011, we refinanced the Senior Notes through a partial redemption and modification, which reduced the principal balance outstanding from $18.8 million to $10.0 million and reduced the interest rate from 12% to 9%.
(2)
The amounts presented for commercial finance for fiscal 2012 reflect activity during the period from October 1 to November 16, 2011. Subsequently, we deconsolidated LEAF, including these facilities, from our consolidated financial statements.

As a result of the reduction in both corporate borrowings and the average interest rate on those borrowings, interest expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by $64,000 and $922,000, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Additionally, for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, interest expense decreased by $1.7 million due to the November 2011 deconsolidation of LEAF.

Gain on Deconsolidation of LEAF. In November 2011, we obtained an additional investment in LEAF by a third-party private investment firm. Accordingly, we determined that we no longer controlled LEAF and, effective with that investment, we deconsolidated it for financial reporting purposes. Our equity interest in LEAF is 13.8% on a fully diluted basis. We recorded a $7.0 million gain to bring the value of our negative investment in LEAF to zero. In addition, a third-party firm valued our investment in LEAF as of November 2011 at $1.7 million. Accordingly, during the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a total gain of $8.7 million in conjunction with the deconsolidation of LEAF.

Gain on Sale of Apidos. On April 17, 2012, we completed the sale of 100% of our equity interests in Apidos to CVC for cash plus an interest in CVC Credit Partners and recorded a net gain on the sale of $54.7 million. Our investment in CVC Credit Partners was valued at $28.6 million based on a third-party valuation. The valuation utilized several approaches, including the implied transaction, dividend discount model, discounted cash flow analysis, and guideline public company. These approaches required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which were based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions. We are also entitled to receive incentive management fees from the legacy Apidos portfolios which were valued at $6.8 million based on the present value of the discounted projected cash flows of the legacy Apidos incentive management fees.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
In September and October 2009, we issued $18.8 million of Senior Notes along with detachable five-year warrants to purchase common stock. The proceeds from the Senior Notes were allocated to the notes and the warrants based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as a discount to the notes and was amortized over the three-year term of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method. In November 2011, we refinanced the Senior Notes through a partial redemption and modification and, as a result, expensed the remaining $2.2 million unamortized discount related to the warrants.

Net Loss (Income) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
We record third-party interests in our earnings as amounts allocable to noncontrolling interests.  Subsequent to the deconsolidation of LEAF in November 2011, we no longer record commercial finance noncontrolling interests.  The following table sets forth the net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests (in thousands):

In the January 2011 formation of LEAF, RSO received 3,743 shares of LEAF Series A preferred stock and warrants to purchase 4,800 shares of LEAF common stock at $0.01 per share. The warrants were recorded as a discount to the preferred stock and are being amortized over the five-year term of the warrants. As a result of the deconsolidation of LEAF, this noncontrolling interest was eliminated.
(4)
Senior executives of LEAF held a 13.9% interest in LEAF Financial as of December 31, 2010. In January 2011, these shares were exchanged for a 21.98% interest in LEAF (10% on a fully diluted basis). As a result of the deconsolidation of LEAF, we no longer record this noncontrolling interest.
Income Taxes
Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013 as Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012.  Our effective income tax rate (income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations, before taxes) was a benefit of 4,084% and 379% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to an expense of 38% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012.  Our effective income tax rate without discrete tax items would have been a 978% tax expense and a 16% tax benefit for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The three months ended June 30, 2013 tax rate is high due to the impact of the change in the year to date tax rate from March 31, 2013 relative to the pre-tax earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2013. We project our effective tax rate to be a benefit of between 125% and 141% for fiscal 2013. The increase in the projected tax rate reflects the greater impact of expected tax benefits, specifically the dividend received deduction on taxable earnings from CVC Credit Partners and state net operating losses, relative to our projected pre-tax earnings. This rate can vary from period to period depending on, among other factors, the geographic and business mix of our earnings and the level of our tax credits. We take certain of these and other factors, including our history of pretax earnings, into account in assessing our ability to realize our net deferred tax assets.
We are subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and other taxing authorities in certain states in which we have significant business operations. We are currently undergoing a New York State examination for fiscal 2007 - 2009.  We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2009 and are no longer subject to state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years before 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As an asset management company, our liquidity needs consist principally of capital needed to make investments and to pay our operating expenses (principally wages and benefits and interest expense). Our ability to meet our liquidity needs will be subject to our ability to generate cash from operations and, with respect to our investments, our ability to raise investor funds.



At June 30, 2013, our liquidity consisted of four primary sources:
cash on hand of $12.2 million;
$10.5 million of availability under our two corporate credit facilities;
potential disposition of non-core assets; and
cash generated from operations.
Disposition of Non-core Assets. Our legacy portfolio at June 30, 2013 consisted of five property interests. To the extent we are able to dispose of these assets, we will obtain additional liquidity. The amount of additional liquidity we obtain will vary significantly depending upon the asset being sold and then-current economic conditions. We cannot assure you that any dispositions will occur or as to the timing or amounts we may realize from any such dispositions.
Refinancing Our Debt. We amended our Republic and TD Bank facilities in October and November 2012, respectively, to extend the maturities of these facilities to December 2014. In December 2012, we amended our Senior Notes to extend their maturity to March 2015.
As of June 30, 2013, our total borrowings outstanding of $22.1 million included $10.0 million of Senior Notes, $10.4 million of mortgage debt (secured by the underlying hotel property) and $1.7 million of other debt.
Capital Requirements
Our capital needs consist principally of funds to make investments in the investment vehicles we sponsor or for our own account and to provide bridge financing or other temporary financial support to facilitate asset acquisitions by our sponsored investment vehicles. Accordingly, the amount of capital we require will depend to a significant extent upon our level of activity in making investments for our own account or in sponsoring investment vehicles, all of which is largely within our discretion.
Dividends
We used cash reserves to fund our dividends during periods in which our cash flows from operations were insufficient.
Our Senior Notes limit the amount of future cash dividends to $0.03 per share unless our basic earnings per common share from continuing operations from the preceding fiscal quarter exceeds $0.25 per share. Subject to the limitations imposed by our Senior Notes, the determination of the amount of future cash dividends, if any, is at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on the various factors affecting our financial condition and other matters the board of directors deems relevant.

LEAF Valuation Commitment. In conjunction with the third-party equity investment in LEAF, we along with RSO have jointly undertaken a contingent obligation with respect to the equity value of the entity that holds the portfolio of equipment, equipment leases and notes that RSO contributed to LEAF. To the extent that equity in the entity falls below $18.7 million (the balance as of the contribution date) as of the final testing date within 90 days of December 31, 2013, we and RSO have agreed to be jointly and severally obligated to contribute cash to LEAF to cover the shortfall. As of June 30, 2013, the equity of the entity was in excess of the valuation amount, and, as such, we have no obligation under this commitment.
Limited Loan Guarantee. We and two of our commercial finance fund partnerships, Lease Equity Appreciation Fund I, L.P., or LEAF I, and Lease Equity Appreciation Fund II, L.P., or LEAF II, have provided a limited guarantee to a lender to the partnerships in exchange for a waiver of any existing defaulted loan covenants and certain future financial covenants. The loans mature at the earlier of (a) the maturity date (March 20, 2014 for the LEAF I loan and December 21, 2013 for the LEAF II loan), or (b) the date on which an event of default under the loan agreement occurs. The maximum guarantee provided by us is up to $3.7 million ($1.8 million for LEAF I and $1.9 million for LEAF II) as of June 30, 2013. If we were required to make any such payments under the guarantee in the future, we would have the option to either step in as the lender or otherwise make a capital contribution to the LEAF partnerships for the amount of the required guarantee payment. Under certain circumstances, the lender will also discount its loans by approximately $250,000 for LEAF I and $347,500 for LEAF II. Management has determined that, based on projected cash flows from the underlying lease and loan portfolios collateralizing the loans, there should be sufficient funds to repay the LEAF partnerships' outstanding loan balances and, accordingly, we have not recorded any liability with respect to this guarantee.
Broker-Dealer Capital Requirement. Resource Securities, our wholly-owned subsidiary, is a registered broker-dealer and serves as a dealer-manager for the sale of securities of direct participation investment programs, both public and private, sponsored by our subsidiaries who also serve as general partners and/or managers of these programs. Additionally, Resource Securities serves as an introducing agent for transactions involving sales of securities of financial services companies, REITs and insurance companies and for us and RSO.  As a broker-dealer, Resource Securities is required to maintain minimum net capital, as defined in regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which was $133,000 and $100,000 as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, Resource Securities net capital was $639,000 and $447,000, respectively, which exceeded the minimum requirements by $506,000 and $347,000, respectively.
Clawback Liability. Two financial fund management investment entities that have incentive distributions, also known as carried interests, are structured so that there is a “clawback” of previously paid incentive distributions to the extent that such distributions exceed the cumulative net profits of the entities, as defined in the respective partnership agreements.  On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, we, along with the co-manager of the general partner of those investment entities, repurchased substantially all the remaining limited partnership interests in these two partnerships, significantly reducing our potential clawback liability. The clawback liability we recorded was $1.2 million at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012.
Legal proceedings. In September 2011, First Community Bank, or First Community, filed a complaint against First Tennessee Bank and approximately thirty other defendants consisting of investment banks, rating agencies, collateral managers, including Trapeza Capital Management, LLC, or TCM, and issuers of CDOs, including Trapeza CDO XIII, Ltd. and Trapeza CDO XIII, Inc. TCM and the Trapeza CDO issuers are collectively referred to as Trapeza. The complaint includes causes of action against TCM for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, violation of the Tennessee Securities Act of 1980 and unjust enrichment. First Community alleges, among other things, that it invested in certain CDOs, that the defendant rating agencies assigned inflated investment grade ratings to the CDOs, and that the defendant investment banks, collateral managers and issuers (including Trapeza) fraudulently and/or negligently made “materially false and misleading representations and omissions” that First Community relied on in investing in the CDOs, including both written representations in offering materials and unspecified oral representations. Specifically, with respect to Trapeza, First Community alleges that it purchased $20.0 million of notes in the D tranche of the Trapeza CDO XIII transaction from J.P. Morgan. The Court dismissed this matter in June 2012. First Community filed a Notice of Appeal in July 2012.



We are also a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. Management believes that none of these actions, individually or, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or operations.
Real Estate Commitment. In July 2011, we entered into an agreement with one of the tenant in common, or TIC, programs we sponsored and manage. This agreement requires us to fund up to $1.9 million for capital improvements for the TIC property over the next two years.  The Company has advanced funds totaling $1.7 million as of June 30, 2013.
General Corporate Commitments. We are also a party to employment agreements with certain executives that provide for compensation and other benefits, including severance payments under specified circumstances.
As of June 30, 2013, except for the clawback liability recorded for the two Trapeza entities, the real estate commitments to the TIC property and executive compensation, we do not believe it is probable that any payments will be required under any of our commitments and contingencies, and accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Variable Interest Entities
In general, VIEs are entities in which equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. We have variable interests in VIEs through our management contracts and investments in various securitization entities, including CDO issuers. Since we serve as the asset manager for the investment entities we sponsored and manage, we are generally deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. In the case of an interest in a VIE we manage, we will perform an additional qualitative analysis to determine if our interest (including any investment as well as any management fees that qualify as variable interests) could absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This analysis considers the most optimistic and pessimistic scenarios of potential economic results that could reasonably be experienced by the VIE. We then compare the benefits we would receive (in the optimistic scenario) or the losses we would absorb (in the pessimistic scenario) as compared to all benefits and losses absorbed by the VIE in total. If the benefits or losses we would absorb were significant as compared to total benefits and losses absorbed by all variable interest holders, then we would conclude we are the primary beneficiary.
Our investments in RSO and our investments in the structured finance entities that hold investments in trust preferred assets, which we refer to as our Trapeza entities, and asset-backed securities, which we refer to as our Ischus entities, were all determined to be VIEs that we do not consolidate as we do not have the obligation of, or right to, losses or earnings that would be significant to those entities.  We have not provided financial or other support to these VIEs and have no liabilities, contingent liabilities, or guarantees (implicit or explicit) related to these VIEs at June 30, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies
     The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We make estimates of our allowance for credit losses, the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, discounts and collectability of management fees, the valuation of stock-based compensation, and in determining whether a decrease in the fair value of an investment is an other-than-temporary impairment. The financial fund management segment makes assumptions in determining the fair value of our investments in securities and in estimating the liability, if any, for clawback provisions on certain of our partnership interests. We used assumptions, specifically inputs to the Black-Scholes pricing model and the discounted cash flow model, in computing the fair value of the Senior Notes and related warrants. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.



ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to various market risks from changes in interest rates. Fluctuations in interest rates can impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial position. We manage this risk through regular operating and financing activities. The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates. The range of changes presented reflects our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period and provides indicators of how we view and manage our ongoing market risk exposures. Our analysis does not consider other possible effects that could impact our business.
Debt
At June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding under our two secured revolving credit facilities.
All other debt, as of June 30, 2013, was at fixed rates of interest and, therefore, not subject to interest rate fluctuation.
Trading Securities
Our trading security investments are a source of market risk. As of June 30, 2013, our trading security portfolio was comprised of $8.2 million in equity and debt securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value and changes in their fair values are included in operations. Assuming an immediate 10% decrease in the market value of these investments as of June 30, 2013, the hypothetical loss would have been approximately $820,000.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under the supervision of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, and as a result of the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed in "Remediation of Material Weakness" below, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the changes discussed below that were made in the quarter ended June 30, 2013, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Remediation of Material Weakness
As described in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, management identified various remedial steps to be implemented with respect to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting disclosed in that item.  We designed our remediation efforts, as outlined in the Annual Report, to address the material weakness identified by management in connection with the valuation of two of our legacy real estate investments and to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting.  During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, we have taken steps to address the material weakness and to improve our internal control over financial reporting, as follows:
analyzed and confirmed the accuracy of any significant changes in the methods and assumptions used in valuing our legacy real estate portfolio; and
formalized our new documentation processes and procedures relative to these valuations.
Subject to satisfactory completion of the design and testing of these processes and procedures for effectiveness, management believes that the implementation of these new control processes and procedures will remediate the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting and, as a result, its disclosure controls and procedures.
