FIRST HARTFORD CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Business and Significant Accounting Policies:
Business
First Hartford Corporation, which was incorporated in Maine in 1909, and its subsidiaries (the Company), is engaged in two business segments: 1) the purchase, development, ownership, management and sale of real estate and 2) providing preferred developer services for two corporate franchise operators (i.e., Fee for Service).
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and all other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including those where the Company has been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity or meets certain criteria as a sole general partner or managing member in accordance with the consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification. As such, included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are the accounts of Rockland Place Apartments Limited Partnership and Clarendon Hill Somerville Limited Partnership, in which the Company is the sole general partner. The Companys ownership percentage in these variable interest entity partnerships is nominal. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10 Q and Rule 8.03 of Regulation S X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2017 was derived from the audited financial statements for the year then ended. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10 K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017.
Because the Company is engaged in the development and sale of real estate at various stages of construction, the operating cycle may extend beyond one year. Accordingly, following the usual practice of the real estate industry, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets are unclassified.
Currently, there are no Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) that the Company is required to adopt that are likely to have a material effect on its financial statements that have not been previously discussed in the Companys annual report on Form 10 K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017.

FIRST HARTFORD CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (the denominator) during the reporting periods. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by increasing the denominator by the weighted average number of additional shares that could have been outstanding from securities convertible into common stock, such as stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method).
There were no common stock equivalents outstanding at October 31, 2017 or October 31, 2016.
Financial Instruments and Fair Value
The Companys financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and debt. The fair values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are estimated to approximate their carrying amounts because of their relative short term nature. In general, the carrying amount of variable rate debt approximates its fair value. Further, the carrying amount of fixed rate debt approximates fair value since the interest rates on the debt approximates the Companys current incremental borrowing rate. Marketable securities consist of equity securities and are stated at fair value based on the last sale of the period obtained from recognized stock exchanges (i.e. Level 1). Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income consists solely of unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities.
Segment Information
The factors used by the Company to identify reportable segments include differences in products and services and segregated operations within the Company. The first segment, Real Estate Operations participates in the purchase, development, management, ownership and sale of real estate. Within its second segment, Fee for Service, the Company provides preferred developer services to CVS and Cumberland Farms Inc. in certain geographic areas. Summary financial information for the two reportable segments is as follows:

3. Income Taxes:
The Company files a Federal consolidated tax return to report all income and deductions for its subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in several states. The tax returns are filed by the entity that owns the real estate or provides services in such state. Some states do not allow a consolidated or combined tax filing. This sometimes creates income taxes to be greater than expected as income for some subsidiaries cannot be offset by other subsidiaries with operating losses.
On October 26, 2017, the Company was informed that its fiscal year 2016 Federal tax return was selected for examination.
4. Litigation:
Following a site inspection of asbestos abatement activities being conducted at the Spring Gate Apartments in Rockland, Massachusetts (Facility) on April 14, 2017, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) by letter dated April 21, 2017 requested that Rockland Place Apartments, LP (Company) temporarily cease and desist from any additional asbestos removal, abatement and/or handling activities at the Facility. Upon receipt of the MassDEP letter, the Company engaged MassDEP in discussions regarding the abatement project. Following submission to and approval by MassDEP of a work plan addressing the issues raised in MassDEPs April 21 letter, MassDEP permitted the asbestos abatement work to go forward. There have been no further enforcement actions taken by MassDEP.
By letters dated May 15, May 16 and May 30, 2017, three attorneys representing tenants in three units at the Facility notified the Company and/or its management company, FHRC Management Corporation, of claims related to environmental conditions at the Facility. The first of these letters alleges that the tenant and her family have been exposed to and have been living in an apartment containing asbestos for many years. The second letter claims that the tenant and her three minor children have suffered injuries believed to be caused by the presence of mold and asbestos in the apartment. The final letter asserts claims with respect to the tenant and her three minor children involving the presence and remediation of asbestos including violation of a tenants quiet enjoyment, breach of the warranty of habitability, causation of emotional distress and the use of unfair and deceptive practices under M.G.L. c. 93A. The first two letters made no specific monetary demand; the third letter demanded $312,600. All three claims were tendered to the Companys insurer, which agreed to respond under a reservation of rights. On July 14, 2017, counsel retained by the insurer provided a timely response to the third letter, adamantly denying the Companys liability pursuant to M.G.L. c. 93A or for any of the other claims. By letter dated July 27, 2017, the insurer acknowledged receipt of the three claims, at the same time stating however that as no lawsuit had arisen, it did not have a duty to defend, but nonetheless would continue to investigate.
At this time, the Company cannot assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or provide any estimate of the amount or range of any potential loss.
5. Refinancings:

The slight increase in residential rental income was primarily caused by rent increases at the Somerville, MA (i.e., Clarendon), partially offset by lower revenue at the Rockland, MA property due to vacancies from converted apartments needed for the ongoing renovation project.
The decrease in commercial rental income was primarily caused by lower common area maintenance (CAM) billings to tenants resulting from lower associated expenses and lower rents received on the Companys development properties, partially offset by additional rents from a new tenant at the Companys Lubbock, TX property.

The increase in management fees was due to higher fees received from the Companys unconsolidated Claymont, DE property.
The full year decrease in preferred developer fees reflected lower fees received from both CVS and Cumberland Farms, while the second quarter decrease reflected lower Cumberland Farms fees partially offset by higher CVS fees. The decrease in CVS fees, which continues a trend over the past several years, was the result of a recent acquisition that has impacted in the slowing of their pipeline for new stores. The decrease in Cumberland Farms was the result of timing of closings based on the construction schedule.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (continued):
On August 16, 2016, the Company sold a condominium in Wethersfield, CT for $285,000 (cost of $277,191). The net proceeds were used to reduce a mortgage loan on this property. The Company currently owns three other condominiums at this site.

The Company continues to own land attached to the sold parcel and is currently overseeing construction of a single tenant retail building of approximately 6,900 square feet on this property.
Other Revenues
The increase in other income was primarily due to sales by the Companys new restaurant it built and owns at its Edinburg, TX property. This store was opened on July 14, 2017.

The slight increase in residential rental expenses were mainly from higher legal fees incurred at the Rockland, MA property resulting from a temporary cease and desist order from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP). See Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, on page 20 for more information. This was partially offset by lower repairs and maintenance expenses at the Somerville, MA (i.e., Clarendon) property.
The decrease in commercial rental expenses was mainly due to expenses incurred in the prior year related to a lawsuit against a former tenant, including a legal settlement of $200,000 and higher bad debt and legal expenses. Also, in the prior year there was accelerated amortization expense of deferred commissions arising from the sale of a portion of its property in Edinburg, TX (i.e., Texas Roadhouse) and accelerated depreciation of tenant improvements at the Lubbock, TX properties upon the departure of two tenants. These factors were partially offset by a current year fee paid to a tenant at its Edinburg, TX shopping center to allow the Company to lease to another tenant and higher expenses related to the Companys New Orleans, LA shopping center, which was completed and refinanced in the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

The decrease in preferred developer expenses and fees primarily reflects lower commissions paid commensurate with the lower revenue, primarily at CVS.
The increase in construction expenses relates to unbudgeted costs (i.e., overruns) incurred at the renovation project at the Companys Rockland, MA property resulting from a temporary cease and desist order from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP). See Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, on page 20 for more information.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)
The increase in SG&A expenses relates primarily to expenses relating to its new restaurant it built and owns at its Edinburg, TX property, legal and professional expenses related to a potential residential housing deal in the Bronx, NY, and costs incurred to resolve the Rockland, MA matter discussed above, including providing hotels and meals to displaced tenants and legal and professional fees (see Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, on page 20 for more information).

The change in commercial interest expense was minimal; there were no individually significant changes.
The six month increase in residential interest expense was the result of the prior year first quarter refinancing at Rockland. Note the loans paid off as part of this refinancing did not accrue interest.

The decrease in investment income reflected realized losses on sales of securities in the current year first quarter.
During the three and six months ended October 31, 2017, the Company received $200,000 from a settlement of a lawsuit filed against another party for breach (relating to an alleged wrongful termination) of a contract to purchase a commercial shopping center owned by the Company and located in New Orleans, LA. As a result, the sale did not go through and the Company retains ownership of the shopping center.
Gain (Loss) on Derivatives
The Company, through its 50% owned consolidated subsidiaries, has entered into two separate floating to fixed interest rate swap agreements with banks that expire in May 2025 and July 2031. The Company has determined that these derivative instruments do not meet the requirements of hedge accounting and have therefore recorded the change in fair value of these derivative instruments through income. Note that the change in fair value recorded through income is a non cash item.

The Company has an investment in an affiliated limited liability entity Dover Parkade, LLC, (Dover). The Company has a 50% interest in Dover, which owns a shopping center in Dover Township, NJ. The operating and financial policies of Dover are not controlled by the Company. For years prior to May 1, 2009, the Company was committed to provide funding to this equity method investee. The Companys investment was recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for its share of their net income and losses and distributions. Through April 30, 2009, losses and distributions from Dover exceeded the Companys investment and the Companys investment balance was reduced below $0 and recorded as a liability. Beginning May 1, 2009, distributions from Dover have been credited to income and any additional losses have not been allowed to further reduce the investment balance. The Company does not control the rate of distributions of Dover. Such distributions are in excess of Dovers net assets since its accumulated net losses (including significant amounts for depreciation and amortization) have exceeded capital contributions.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (continued):
Income Taxes
The Company files a Federal consolidated tax return to report all income and deductions for its subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in several states. The tax returns are filed by the entity that owns the real estate or provides services in such state. Some states do not allow a consolidated or combined tax filing. This sometimes creates income taxes to be greater than expected as income for some subsidiaries cannot be offset by other subsidiaries with operating losses.
On October 26, 2017, the Company was informed that its fiscal year 2016 Federal tax return was selected for examination.
Capital Resource and Liquidity
At October 31, 2017, the Company had $6,251,630 of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. This includes $5,018,099 belonging to partnership entities in which the Companys financial interests range from .01% (VIEs) to 50%. Funds received from CVS, which are to be paid out in connection with CVS developments, amounted to $106,006 and tenant security deposits held by VIEs of $396,960 are included in restricted cash and cash equivalents.
At October 31, 2017, the Company had $1,101,110 of investments in marketable securities, all of which belongs to partner entities.
The Company has three separate credit lines that allows for borrowings up to $6,760,000. At October 31, 2017, the Company had borrowings of $4,760,000 against these credit lines.
The sources of future borrowings that may be needed for new construction operations, property purchases, or balloon payments on existing loans are unclear at this time. As a result of the decreasing CVS fee for service business and the increasingly difficult environment surrounding commercial real estate, the Company has become more dependent on its ability to buy, develop, and sell real estate at a profit. Failure to do so would have an adverse impact on the Companys liquidity. The Companys liquidity could also be adversely impacted if the Companys new restaurant in Edinburg, TX does not meet its financial projections or if the Rockland, MA matter discussed in Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, on page 20, has an unfavorable outcome.
