Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
Owens Realty Mortgage, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on August 9, 2012, under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of its $0.01 par value common stock. In addition, the Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock at $0.01 par value per share. The Company was created to effect the merger (the “Merger”) of Owens Mortgage Investment Fund, a California Limited Partnership (“OMIF”) with and into the Company as described in the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, of the Company, declared effective on February 12, 2013 (File No. 333-184392). The Merger was part of a plan to reorganize the business operations of OMIF so that it could elect to qualify as a real estate investment trust for Federal income tax purposes. The Merger was approved by OMIF limited partners on April 16, 2013 and was completed on May 20, 2013.
The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2012. As a REIT, the Company is permitted to deduct distributions made to its stockholders, allowing its operating income represented by such distributions to avoid taxation at the entity level and to be taxed generally only at the stockholder level. The Company intends to distribute substantially all of its operating income. As a REIT, however, the Company is subject to separate, corporate-level tax, including potential 100% penalty taxes under various circumstances, as well as certain state and local taxes. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to full corporate income tax. Furthermore, the Company’s ability to continue to qualify as a REIT will depend upon its continuing satisfaction of various requirements, such as those related to the diversity of its stock ownership, the nature of its assets, the sources of its income and the distributions to its stockholders, including a requirement that the Company distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income on an annual basis (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gain).
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information included therein. Certain information and footnote disclosures presented in the annual consolidated financial statements are not included in these interim financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K of ORM for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. The Company evaluates subsequent events up to the date it files its Form 10-Q with the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS) and its majority- and wholly-owned limited liability companies (see notes 5 and 6). The Company is in the business of providing mortgage lending services and manages its business as one operating segment. Due to foreclosure activity, the Company also owns and manages real estate assets.
Certain reclassifications, not affecting previously reported net income or total stockholders’ equity, have been made to the previously issued consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.
Management Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates are inherently imprecise and actual results could differ significantly from such estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) – Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” or ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU by the Company will change the presentation of debt issuance costs, which will be reported as a direct offset to the applicable debt on the balance sheet.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” or ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 broadly amends the accounting guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on its financial statements.
In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. ASU 2014-08 updated guidance that changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. As a result of this new guidance, future dispositions of real estate owned assets may no longer meet the criteria to be considered as discontinued operations. The guidance was effective as of the first quarter of 2015 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in its 2014 annual report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to those significant accounting policies.

All of the loans that are 90 or more days past due as listed above are on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. In addition, two commercial loans totaling $11,588,000 as of December 31, 2014 that were considered impaired were restored to accrual status during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 because the Company had received consistent payments from the borrower over a six month period and management expected that the borrower would continue to keep the loans current with respect to principal and interest payments. These two loans were paid off in full during the first quarter of 2015.

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY
During 2008, the Company entered into an operating agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) of 1850 De La Cruz LLC, a California limited liability company (“1850”), with Nanook Ventures LLC (“Nanook”), an unrelated party. The purpose of the joint venture is to acquire, own and operate certain industrial land and buildings located in Santa Clara, California that were owned by the Company. The property was subject to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated July 24, 2007 (the “Sale Agreement”), as amended, between the Company, as seller, and Nanook, as buyer. During the course of due diligence under the Sale Agreement, it was discovered that the property was contaminated and that remediation and monitoring may be required. The parties agreed to enter into the Operating Agreement to restructure the arrangement as a joint venture. At the time of closing in July 2008, the two properties were separately contributed to two new limited liability companies, Nanook Ventures One LLC and Nanook Ventures Two LLC that are wholly owned by 1850. The Company and Nanook are the Members of 1850 and NV Manager, LLC is the manager. (See Note 13 for further discussion of the Company’s environmental remediation obligation with respect to the properties owned by 1850.)
The Company received distributions from 1850 of $85,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and $84,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The net income to the Company from its investment in 1850 De La Cruz was approximately $43,000 and $41,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $86,000 and $83,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company transferred one golf course property from “Held for Sale” to “Held for Investment” as the property is no longer listed for sale and a sale is not expected within the next year. As a result of this transfer, the Company recorded approximately $79,000 of depreciation expense that would have previously been recorded had the property been continuously classified as “Held for Investment”. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company transferred three properties (one land, one residential and one industrial) from “Held for investment” to “Held for sale” as the properties were listed for sale and sales were expected within a one year period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company transferred one parcel of land from “Held for sale” to “Held for investment” because the property was no longer listed for sale and a sale was not likely within the next year.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded impairment losses of approximately $147,000 and $1,256,000, respectively, on the unimproved residential and commercial land located in Gypsum, Colorado due to a decrease in the listing price of the property and a reduction in the net fair market value estimated by management.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $48,000 and $56,000, respectively, on the marina property located in Oakley, California due to a recent decrease in the listing price of the property.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company sold three and four real estate properties for net sales proceeds aggregating approximately $33,756,000 and $34,865,000, resulting in gains on sale of real estate totaling approximately $14,826,000 and $14,879,000, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized gain of approximately $152,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 that had previously been deferred related to the sale of a real estate property in 2012. The gain on the sale of this property was being accounted for under the installment method.
There were no sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014; however, gains totaling approximately $2,350,000 and $2,626,000, respectively, were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 that had previously been deferred related to the sales of real estate properties in 2012 and 2013. The gains on the sales of the properties were being recognized under the installment method.

It is the Company’s intent to sell its real estate properties held for investment, but expected sales of these properties are not probable to occur within the next year.

2015 Foreclosure Activity
The Company foreclosed on no loans during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
2014 Foreclosure Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Sandmound Marina, LLC (“Sandmound”) (wholly owned by the Company) foreclosed on a first mortgage loan secured by unimproved land and a marina and campground located in Bethel Island, California with a principal balance of approximately $2,960,000 and obtained the properties via the trustee’s sale. In addition, advances made on the loan or incurred as part of the foreclosure (such as legal fees and delinquent property taxes) in the total amount of approximately $282,000 were capitalized to the basis of the properties. The fair market values of the properties acquired were estimated to be higher than Sandmound’s recorded investment in the subject loan, and, thus, a gain on foreclosure in the amount of approximately $257,000 was recorded. The properties have been classified as held for investment as sales are not expected within one year.
Certain of the Company’s real estate properties held for sale and investment are leased to tenants under noncancellable leases with remaining terms ranging from one to nine years. Certain of the leases require the tenant to pay all or some operating expenses of the properties. The future minimum rental income from noncancellable operating leases due within the five years subsequent to June 30, 2015 and thereafter is as follows:

Borrowings are secured by certain assets of the Company. These collateral assets will include the grant to the lenders of first-priority deeds of trust on certain real property assets and trust deeds of the Company to be identified by the parties from time-to-time and all personal property of the Company, which collateral includes the assets described in the Security Agreement and in other customary collateral agreements that will be entered into by the parties from time-to-time.

In June 2014, TOTB North, LLC (“TOTB North”) entered into a Construction Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) and related documents with Bank of the Ozarks (“Ozarks”) as the lender providing TOTB North with a loan (the “North Loan”) of up to $21,304,000 to renovate and improve the vacant and unimproved “North” apartment building held in TOTB North (the “Project”). The North Loan is secured by a first mortgage lien on the North building and all improvements and certain other assets, and is cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with the TOTB Miami, LLC Loan Payable described below.
The initial maturity date (the “Maturity Date”) of the North Loan is June 12, 2017, which may be extended at the option of TOTB North for two additional one year periods, subject to certain conditions. The balance of the loan was approximately $5,692,000 and $1,008,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
All outstanding borrowings under the North Loan bear interest equal to the floating daily Three Month LIBOR rate of interest plus four percent (4.0%) per annum (the “Note Rate”), but the Note Rate will not be lower than four and one-half percent (4.5%) per annum. The Note Rate as of June 30, 2015 was 4.5% per annum. Upon a default under the North Loan documents the Note Rate increases by an additional eight percent (8.00%) per annum.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
TOTB North made a required deposit with Ozarks of $1.0 million (the “Bridge Equity”) in 2014 using a capital contribution by TOTB (excess funds held and capital contributions of $453,000 from the Company and $108,000 from OFG). The Bridge Equity was provided to fund project costs pending satisfaction of additional post-closing conditions under the loan documents, and Ozarks reimbursed the Bridge Equity as part of the loan in February 2015. All post-closing conditions were met in February 2015, and TOTB North was given access to the remaining balance of the North Loan once the Company and OFG contributed an additional $1,170,000 and $279,000, respectively, during the first quarter of 2015 due to increased construction costs for the Project.
During 2014, TOTB North paid customary closing fees, disbursements and expenses, including an origination fee to Ozarks, which totaled $622,000. The majority of these costs were paid out of proceeds from the North Loan and capitalized to deferred financing costs and are being amortized to the Project using the straight-line method through the Maturity Date. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, approximately $52,000 and $104,000, respectively, of deferred financing costs was amortized to the Project.

As a condition of providing the TOTB Miami Loan, Ozarks required that the TOTB Miami Loan and the North Loan be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted, that excess proceeds from any sale of the North property be used to reduce or pay off the TOTB Miami Loan and that excess proceeds from any sale of the TOTB property be used to pay off the North Loan.
The net cash proceeds from the TOTB Miami Loan were distributed to the members of TOTB in 2014. The initial maturity date (the “Maturity Date”) of the TOTB Miami Loan is November 16, 2017, and the Maturity Date may be extended at the option of TOTB for two additional one year periods if a number of conditions are met.
All outstanding borrowings under the TOTB Miami Loan will bear interest equal to the floating daily Three Month LIBOR rate of interest plus four percent (4.0%) per annum (the “Note Rate”), but in no event will the Note Rate be lower than four and one-quarter percent (4.25%) per annum.

TOTB was obligated to pay customary closing fees, disbursements and expenses, including an origination fee to the Lender, which totaled approximately $323,000. The majority of these costs were paid out of proceeds from the loan and capitalized to deferred financing costs and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method through the Maturity Date. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, approximately $166,000 and $331,000, respectively, of interest expense was incurred (including approximately $31,000 and $59,000, respectively, of deferred financing costs amortized to interest expense).
The TOTB Miami Loan documents contain financial covenants of TOTB and the Guarantors which are customary for loans of this type. Management is not aware of any breach of these covenants as of June 30, 2015.

Tahoe Stateline Venture, LLC Loan Payable
In December 2014, Tahoe Stateline Ventures, LLC (“TSV”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) and related documents with RaboBank, N.A. as the lender (“Lender”) providing TSV with a loan (the “TSV Loan”) of up to $14,500,000. TSV borrowed $10,445,000 at the first closing under the TSV Loan and up to an additional $4,055,000 (the “Undisbursed Portion”) will be made available to TSV in one or more future advances provided that no event of default has occurred under the TSV loan documents and that such additional advances do not result in a pro forma Debt Service Coverage ratio (as defined in the agreements) of less than 1.25:1.00.
The maturity date of the TSV Loan is January 1, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”). All outstanding borrowings under the TSV Loan documents bear interest initially at a rate of 3.47% per annum (the “Long Term Adjustable Rate”), provided that on January 1, 2018 the Long Term Adjustable Rate will be reset to Lender’s then current market rate for three year fixed rate loans from comparable commercial real estate secured transactions, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion. Upon a default under the TSV Loan documents, the interest rate on the outstanding principal balance increases by an additional five percent (5.00%) per annum and the rate on any other outstanding obligations thereunder increases to ten percent (10.00%) per annum. Prepayments under the TSV Loan documents are subject to certain prepayment fees; provided that during the 90 day period immediately prior to January 1, 2018, and the 90 day period immediately prior to the Maturity Date, TSV may prepay the entire unpaid balance of the Loan in full, without any Prepayment Fee or penalty.
During the term of the TSV Loan, TSV will make equal combined payments of principal and accrued interest on the first day of each month in an amount calculated to fully amortize the original principal amount over a period of 300 months, subject to certain adjustments and the balance of the TSV Loan is due on the Maturity Date.
The Credit Agreement required the payment of a closing fee of $108,750 and certain administrative fees totaling approximately $218,000. The majority of these costs were paid out of proceeds from the loan and capitalized to deferred financing costs and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method through the Maturity Date. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, approximately $98,000 and $197,000, respectively, of interest expense was incurred (including approximately $9,000 and $18,000, respectively, of deferred financing costs amortized to interest expense).
The TSV Loan documents contain financial covenants which are customary for loans of this type. Management is not aware of any breach of these covenants as of June 30, 2015.
NOTE 9 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
In consideration of the management services rendered to the Company, OFG is entitled to receive from the Company a management fee payable monthly, subject to a maximum of 2.75% per annum of the average unpaid balance of the Company’s loans.
All of the Company’s loans are serviced by OFG, in consideration for which OFG receives a monthly fee, which, when added to all other fees paid in connection with the servicing of a particular loan, does not exceed the lesser of the customary, competitive fee paid in the community where the loan is placed for the provision of such mortgage services on that type of loan, or up to 0.25% per annum of the unpaid principal balance of the loans.
OFG, at its sole discretion may, on a monthly basis, adjust the management and servicing fees as long as they do not exceed the allowable limits calculated on an annual basis. Even though the fees for a month may exceed 1/12 of the maximum limits, at the end of the calendar year the sum of the fees collected for each of the 12 months must be equal to or less than the stated limits. Management fees amounted to approximately $441,000 and $420,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $897,000 and $840,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Servicing fees amounted to approximately $40,000 and $38,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $82,000 and $76,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company owed management and servicing fees to OFG in the amount of approximately $174,000 and $171,000, respectively.
OWENS REALTY MORTGAGE, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
The maximum management and servicing fees were paid to OFG during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
In determining the management fees to pay to OFG, OFG may consider a number of factors, including current market yields, delinquency experience, un-invested cash and real estate activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, OFG elected to take the maximum compensation that it is able to take pursuant to the Management Agreement and will likely continue to take the maximum compensation for the foreseeable future.
Pursuant to the charter, OFG receives all late payment charges from borrowers on loans owned by the Company. The amounts paid to or collected by OFG for such charges totaled approximately $0 and $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $17,000 and $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, the Company remits other miscellaneous fees to OFG, which are collected from loan payments, loan payoffs or advances from loan principal (i.e. funding, demand and partial release fees). The amounts paid to or collected by OFG for such fees totaled approximately $2,000 and $1,000, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and $4,000 and $2,000, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
OFG originates all loans the Company invests in and receives loan origination and extension fees from borrowers. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, OFG earned approximately $467,000 and $712,000, respectively, on loans originated or extended of approximately $19,615,000 and $30,053,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, OFG earned approximately $331,000 and $540,000, respectively, on loans originated or extended of approximately $13,153,000 and $22,202,000, respectively.
OFG is reimbursed by the Company for the actual cost of goods, services and materials used for or by the Company and paid by OFG and the salary and related salary expense of OFG’s non-management and non-supervisory personnel performing services for the Company which could be performed by independent parties (subject to certain limitations in the Management Agreement and the Company’s charter). The total OFG reimbursements expensed by the Company for such services were $134,000 and $183,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $264,000 and $340,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $43,000 and $113,000 payable to OFG for such services. The Company also reimbursed certain of OFG’s officers for allowed expenses in the total amount of $1,000 and $1,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company paid Investor’s Yield, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of OFG) approximately $7,000 and $30,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, in fees primarily related to certain foreclosure proceedings on Company loans.
During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company purchased OFG’s full interest in a loan secured by an industrial property located in San Ramon, California with a principal balance of $1,499,000 at face value.
NOTE 10 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On August 9, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a Rule 10b5-1 stock repurchase plan (the “2013 Repurchase Plan”) which permitted the Company to purchase up to the lesser of $7 million of its common stock or five percent of the shares of common stock outstanding as of that date. A Rule 10b5-1 plan permits the Company to repurchase shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company repurchased 26,208 shares of its common stock for a total cost of approximately $325,000 (including commissions) and an average cost of $12.42 per share. The 2013 Repurchase Plan expired on May 19, 2014, and as of that date, the Company had repurchased 430,118 shares of its common stock, for a total cost of approximately $5,349,000 (including commissions) and an average cost of $12.44 per share.
OWENS REALTY MORTGAGE, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
On May 27, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized a new Rule 10b5-1 stock repurchase plan (the “2015 Repurchase Plan”) under which the Company may purchase up to $7.5 million of its common stock. Under the 2015 Repurchase Plan, repurchases will be funded from available working capital, and the repurchased shares will return to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. Repurchases under the 2015 Repurchase Plan are subject to certain price, volume and timing constraints specified in the brokerage agreement. There is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased by the Company. The 2015 Repurchase Plan permits repurchases commencing on June 27, 2015 and expires by its terms on May 12, 2016, although the Company may terminate the 2015 Repurchase Plan at any time. No shares had been repurchased under this new plan as of June 30, 2015 and 210,801 shares were repurchased in July 2015 (subsequent to quarter end) for a total cost of approximately $3,114,000 (including commissions) and an average cost of $14.77 per share.
NOTE 11 – RESTRICTED CASH
Contingency Reserves
In accordance with the charter, the Company is required to maintain cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as contingency reserves in an aggregate amount of 1-1/2% of Capital as defined in the charter. Although the Manager believes the contingency reserves are adequate, it could become necessary for the Company to sell or otherwise liquidate certain of its investments or other assets to cover such contingencies on terms which might not be favorable to the Company, which could lead to unanticipated losses upon sale of such assets.
The contingency reserves required per the charter as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were approximately $4,095,000 and $3,876,000, respectively, and are reported as part of restricted cash in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. $7,000,000 is required to be held in non-interest bearing accounts pursuant to the Company’s two lines of credit agreements, which also satisfies the contingency reserve requirement in the charter.
Escrow Deposits
Restricted cash includes deposits held in third party escrow accounts to fund construction costs and replacement reserves and to pay property taxes and insurance on Company real estate in the amounts of approximately $356,000 and $249,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Bridge Equity Deposit
Restricted cash included the Bridge Equity deposit held by Ozarks to fund all Project costs incurred prior to the satisfaction of the Post-Closing Conditions in the amount of $1,000,000 as of June 30, 2014 (see Note 8).
NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE
The Company accounts for its financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities pursuant to ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
Fair value is defined in ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a 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. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are
observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities
OWENS REALTY MORTGAGE, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, such as the
Company’s own data or assumptions.
Level 3 inputs include unobservable inputs that are used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability measured at fair value. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability being measured.
Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.
Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities or total earnings.
The following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used to measure and disclose the fair values of its financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities on a nonrecurring basis. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Impaired Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and a specific allowance for loan losses is established. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement or when monthly payments are delinquent greater than ninety days. Once a loan is identified as impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC 310-10-35. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated by either an observable market price (if available) or the fair value of the underlying collateral, if collateral dependent. The fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by third party appraisals (by licensed appraisers), broker price opinions, comparable properties or other indications of value. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the majority of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral by obtaining third party appraisals that valued the collateral primarily by utilizing an income or market approach or some combination of the two. In accordance with ASC 820, impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. Because appraisals used by management generally include significant unobservable inputs and market data, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3. Unobservable market data included in appraisals often includes adjustments to comparable property sales for such items as location, size and quality to estimate fair values using a sales comparison approach. Unobservable market data also includes cash flow assumptions and capitalization rates used to estimate fair values under an income approach.
Real Estate Held for Sale and Investment
Real estate held for sale and investment includes properties acquired through foreclosure of the related loans. When property is acquired, any excess of the Company’s recorded investment in the loan and accrued interest income over the estimated fair market value of the property, net of estimated selling costs, is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, real estate held for sale properties are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The Company periodically compares the carrying value of real estate held for investment to expected future cash flows as determined by internally or third party generated valuations (including third party appraisals that primarily utilize an income or market approach or some combination of the two) for the purpose of assessing the recoverability of the recorded amounts. If the carrying value exceeds future undiscounted cash flows, the assets are reduced to fair value. The fair value of real estate held for sale and investment is estimated using appraisals in a manner similar to that of collateral dependent impaired loans described above which generally results in a Level 2 or Level 3 classification in the fair value hierarchy.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates the fair value because of the liquidity and/or relatively short maturity of these instruments and are classified as Level 1.
Loans, net: The fair value of loans that are not impaired are estimated using discounted cash flow methodology, using discount rates, which, in the opinion of management, best reflect current market interest rates that would be offered for loans with similar characteristics and credit quality but are often unobservable resulting in a Level 3 classification. The fair values of loans that are impaired are estimated by the Company primarily through the use of third party appraisals of the underlying collateral. Such appraisals often include unobservable market data including adjustments to comparable property sales for such items as location, size and quality to estimate fair values using a sales comparison approach and include cash flow assumptions and capitalization rates used to estimate fair values under an income approach resulting in a Level 3 classification. Accrued interest and advances receivable relate to loans and are thus classified as Level 3.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Investment in limited liability company: The fair value of the Company’s investment in limited liability company is estimated based on an appraisal obtained which used unobservable inputs and is classified as Level 3.
Lines of credit payable: The fair value of the Company’s lines of credit payable is estimated based upon comparable market indicators of current pricing for the same or similar issue or on the current rate offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturity and which are generally observable resulting in a Level 2 classification. Accrued interest payable associated with the lines of credit is also classified as Level 2.
Notes and loans payable: The fair values of the Company’s notes and loans payable and related accrued interest payable are estimated based upon comparable market indicators of current pricing for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities resulting in either a Level 2 or Level 3 classification. Generally, Level 2 inputs are used for variable rate notes payable and Level 3 inputs are used for fixed rate notes payable. Accrued interest payable associated with the notes and loans payable is also classified as either Level 2 or Level 3.
Due to Manager: The carrying value of Due to Manager is estimated to approximate fair value due to the short term nature of this instrument and is classified as Level 2.
NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental Remediation Obligations
The Company has an obligation to pay all required costs to remediate and monitor contamination of the real properties owned by 1850. As part of the Operating Agreement executed by the Company and its joint venture partner in 1850, Nanook, the Company has indemnified Nanook against all obligations related to the expected costs to monitor and remediate the contamination. In 2008, the Company had accrued an amount that a third party consultant had estimated will need to be paid to monitor and remediate the site. The majority of clean-up activities were completed during 2012 as part of the tenant’s construction of a new building on the site. Thus, approximately $460,000 was paid by the Company from the previously established liability, and an additional $100,000 was accrued during the year ended December 31, 2012 as a result of an updated estimate of future costs to be incurred. If additional amounts are required, it will be an obligation of the Company. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $45,000 and $60,000 of this obligation remains accrued on the Company’s books. All costs for this remediation will be paid from cash reserves.
During the course of due diligence performed by a potential buyer of TOTB Miami in 2012, a low level of arsenic was found in the ground water of a monitoring well located on the property owned by TOTB Miami. While the level of arsenic exceeds the minimum level acceptable for drinking water standards, the water under this property is subject to tidal influence and is not used for domestic consumption. TOTB Miami has retained an environmental consultant to perform additional testing and analysis with the goal of petitioning the appropriate governmental agency to issue a no further action letter for this property due to the low level of contamination and the low quality of the ground water under the property. At this time, the costs of any potential remediation and/or monitoring are unknown and cannot be estimated. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $98,000 and $79,000 has been accrued and/or paid for testing and analysis.

Contractual Obligations
The Company has entered into various contracts for design, architectural and engineering for the potential phase II development of the land owned by TSV. The aggregate amount of these contracts as of the date of this filing is approximately $1,704,000 of which approximately $965,000 has been incurred as of June 30, 2015. Management expects that all costs for this project will be paid from cash reserves and/or construction financing to be obtained in the future.
The Company has also entered into contracts for the construction, demolition and concrete remediation, design, architectural and engineering services related to the renovation of the vacant apartment building owned by TOTB North (see Note 8) in the aggregate amount of approximately $21,002,000 of which approximately $9,723,000 has been incurred to June 30, 2015 in addition to other capitalized costs related to the construction project of $1,396,000 (total of $11,119,000). Management expects that all costs for this project will be paid from cash reserves or the recently obtained construction loan. It is possible that additional change orders will be submitted and construction costs may be higher than expected.
The Company has entered into contracts for new bathrooms and modular offices and improvements to the bridge that accesses the marina held within Brannan Island, LLC in the aggregate amount of approximately $791,000 of which approximately $633,000 has been incurred to June 30, 2015. Management expects that all costs from the project will be paid from cash reserves or advances from the lines of credit. It is possible that additional change orders will be submitted and construction costs may be higher than expected.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company has commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers of construction, rehabilitation and other loans in the total amount of approximately $7,115,000 (including approximately $1,234,000 in interest reserves).
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, such matters will not have a material effect upon the financial position of the Company.

Overview and Background
We are a specialty finance company that focuses on the origination, investment and management of commercial real estate mortgage loans. We provide customized, short-term capital to small and middle-market investors and developers who require speed and flexibility. We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We are externally managed and advised by Owens Financial Group, Inc. (“OFG” or the “Manager”), a specialized commercial real estate management company that has originated, serviced and managed alternative commercial real estate investments since 1951.
The Company is a Maryland corporation formed to reorganize the business of its predecessor, OMIF, into a publicly traded REIT. OMIF was a California Limited Partnership registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission that was formed in 1983 for the purposes of funding and servicing short-term commercial real estate loans. Beginning in 2009, OMIF experienced liquidity issues as its borrowers were unable to access credit sources to pay off its loans. OMIF eventually foreclosed on a substantial portion of its loan portfolio, repositioning many of the properties for investment or eventual sale. OMIF also experienced a significant increase in capital withdrawal requests that it was unable to honor due to insufficient cash, net of reserves and restrictions under the terms of its bank line of credit. In addition, OMIF was restricted by provisions within the partnership agreement from making additional investments in mortgage loans while qualified redemption requests remained pending and unpaid. In addition to increasing investor liquidity through public listing of its stock, the Company was created to provide the opportunity for resuming mortgage lending activities, with the goal of increasing income to stockholders.
On May 20, 2013, OMIF merged with and into the Company with the Company as the surviving entity, succeeding to and continuing the operations of OMIF. The Company now, by virtue of the Merger, directly or indirectly owns all of the assets and business formerly owned by OMIF. The Company is a deemed successor issuer to OMIF pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act, and on July 1, 2013, the Company’s common stock was listed on the NYSE MKT exchange. For accounting purposes, the merger was treated as a transfer of assets and exchange of shares between entities under common control. The accounting basis used to initially record the assets and liabilities in the Company was the carryover basis of OMIF.
Our primary sources of revenue are interest income earned on our loan portfolio and revenues we generate from our operating real estate assets. We have resumed originating loans and believe the Company is well positioned to capitalize on lending opportunities as the economy continues to recover. However, there can be no assurances that we will be able to identify and make loans to suitable commercial real estate borrowers or have adequate capital and liquidity to fund such loans.
Our operating results are affected primarily by:
·
|
the level of foreclosures and related loan and real estate losses experienced;
|
·
|
the income or losses from foreclosed properties prior to the time of disposal;
|
·
|
the amount of cash available to invest in loans;
|
·
|
the amount of borrowing to finance loan investments and our cost of funds on such borrowing;
|
·
|
the level of real estate lending activity in the markets serviced;
|
·
|
the ability to identify and lend to suitable borrowers;
|
·
|
the interest rates we are able to charge on loans; and
|
·
|
the level of delinquencies on loans.
|
Between 2008 and 2013, we experienced increased delinquent loans and foreclosures which created substantial losses. As a result, we now own significantly more real estate than in the past, which has reduced cash flow and net income. As of June 30, 2015, approximately 13% of our loans are impaired and/or past maturity. As of June 30, 2015, we own approximately $152 million of real estate held for sale or investment, which is approximately 63% of total assets. During the six month period ended June 30, 2015, we sold four real estate properties for aggregate net sales proceeds of $34,865,000 and gains totaling $14,879,000. We also recognized an additional $152,000 in deferred gain under the installment method due to the final repayment received on a carryback loan from the sale of a real estate property in late 2012. We will continue to attempt to sell certain of our properties but may need to sell them for losses or wait until market values recover. In addition, under the REIT tax rules, we may be subject to a “prohibited transaction” penalty tax on tax gains from the sale of our properties in certain circumstances. In addition, we are also limited in the number and dollar amount of properties we can sell in a given year under the REIT tax rules.
Although management believes that only two of our delinquent loans will result in loss to the Company (and has caused the Company to record specific allowances for loan losses on such loans), real estate values could decrease further. Management continues to perform frequent evaluations of such collateral values using internal and external sources, including the use of updated independent appraisals. As a result of these evaluations, the allowance for loan losses and our investments in real estate could change in the near term, and such changes could be material.
Our website can be found at www.owensmortgage.com. We make available through the website, access to our annual and quarterly financial statements, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports, as well as proxy statements and other periodic reports and filings submitted to the SEC. We also provide access to certain Company presentations, fact sheets, press releases and corporate governance information.
Business Strategy
Our primary business objective is to provide our stockholders with attractive risk-adjusted returns by producing consistent and predictable dividends while maintaining a strong balance sheet. We believe we have positioned the Company for future growth and seek to increase distributions to stockholders and funds from operations, or FFO, through active portfolio management and execution of our business plan which is outlined below:
·
|
Capitalize on market lending opportunity by leveraging our existing origination network to expand our commercial real estate loan portfolio.
|
·
|
Enhance and reposition our commercial real estate assets through the investment of capital and strategic management.
|
·
|
Increase liquidity available for lending activities by focusing on opportunities to remove real estate assets from our balance sheet.
|
·
|
Manage leverage to marginally expand sources of liquidity while maintaining a conservative balance sheet.
|
Current Market Conditions, Risks and Recent Trends
During 2013 and 2014, the global capital, credit and real estate markets continued to slowly recover from the economic downturn which began in 2007. Real estate markets also continued to recover, slowly on a national basis and more significantly in major metropolitan areas, and we expect this trend to continue through 2015. Accordingly, as our real estate assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, it is possible that we have substantial imbedded gains in certain of our real estate properties held for sale and investment that are not reflected in our financial statements or in the value of our stock. However, despite these improvements, the overall market recovery remains uncertain. Should the economy regress, the commercial real estate sector may experience additional losses and operating challenges.
Critical Accounting Policies
Please refer to the section of ORM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Critical Accounting Policies” for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, there were no material changes to these policies.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates based on the information available that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates and revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. Such estimates relate principally to the determination of (1) the allowance for loan losses including the accrued interest and advances that are estimated to be unrecoverable based on estimates of amounts to be collected plus estimates of the value of the property as collateral; (2) the valuation of real estate held for sale and investment (at acquisition and subsequently); and (3) the estimate of environmental remediation liabilities. While we believe that these accounting policies and estimates are based on sound measurement criteria, actual future events can and often do result in outcomes that can be materially different from these estimates and forecasts.
Results of Operations
Net income attributable to our common stockholders increased approximately $10,950,000 and $11,341,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014. These increases were primarily a result of the sales of four real estate properties and the recognition of deferred gain under the installment method related to the sale of a property in 2012 and the repayment of the carry back loan during the six months ended June 30, 2015, resulting in gains totaling approximately $15,031,000. The total gain on sales of real estate was reduced by an increase in net income attributable to non-controlling interests of approximately $2,565,000 and $2,531,000 during the three and six month periods, respectively, as a portion of the gain in the amount of approximately $2,479,000 was attributable to our joint venture partner in 720 University, LLC (as the shopping center owned by this entity was sold in June 2015). During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recognized $2,627,000 in deferred gains under the installment method related to the sales of certain properties in 2012 and 2013 due to full or partial principal repayments received on the carry back loans in 2014.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 Compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
Total Revenues
Interest income on loans increased $1,472,000 (143.1% increase) and $3,159,000 (145.9% increase) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014. The increases were primarily due to the accretion of the remaining $512,000 discount on an impaired loan as the loan was repaid prior to maturity in the first quarter of 2015, the one-time collection of past due interest related to one impaired loan that we foreclosed on during 2014 of approximately $1,346,000 and $1,723,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and an increase in the average balance of performing loans between the six months ended June 30, 2014 and the six months ended June 30, 2015 of approximately 70%.
Rental and other income from real estate properties increased $459,000 (15.4% increase) and $1,312,000 (23.1% increase) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014, primarily due to rental income from a real estate property obtained via foreclosure in December 2014, increased rental rates and/or occupancy on certain of our properties during 2014 and 2015 and increased income from the Tahoe Stateline Venture retail property that was completed and partially occupied during the fourth quarter of 2014.
Total Expenses
Management fees amounted to approximately $441,000 and $420,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $897,000 and $840,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Servicing fees amounted to approximately $40,000 and $38,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $82,000 and $76,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The maximum management and servicing fees were paid to the Manager during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
The maximum management fee permitted under the Management Agreement is 2.75% per year of the average unpaid balance of mortgage loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 (annualized) and the calendar years 2014, 2013 and 2012, the management fees were 2.75%, 2.75%, 2.74% and 2.67% of the average unpaid balance of mortgage loans, respectively.
In determining the management fees, the Manager may consider a number of factors, including current market yields, delinquency experience, un-invested cash and real estate activities. The Manager expects that the management fees it receives from us will vary in amount and percentage from period to period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Manager chose to take the maximum compensation that it is able to take pursuant to the charter and will likely continue to take the maximum compensation for the foreseeable future.
General and administrative expense decreased $109,000 (28.1% decrease) and $146,000 (18.2% decrease) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014. The decreases were due primarily to lower legal, appraisal and consulting expenses during 2015 as compared to 2014.
Rental and other expenses on real estate properties increased $182,000 (9.2% increase) and $457,000 (11.8% increase) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014, primarily due to the completion of the retail complex owned by TSV during the fourth quarter of 2014 and, thus, there was a full six months of operating expenses for the complex during 2015. Approximately 75% of these expenses were charged to tenants as common area maintenance (“CAM”) reimbursements and reflected in the increase in revenue for the property during the period.
Interest expense increased $219,000 (86.5% increase) and $678,000 (178.3% increase) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same periods in 2014, due to interest incurred on our lines of credit, the loans payable within TOTB and TSV and the amortization of deferred financing costs to interest expense from these debt instruments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. All of these debt facilities (other than the CB&T and Opus Credit Facilities) began to incur interest expense subsequent to the second quarter of 2014.
The provision for loan losses of $340,000 and $428,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, was the result of an analysis performed on the loan portfolio. The general loan loss allowance increased $350,000 and $434,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, due to an increase in the balance of performing loans during the three and six month periods. There was also an increase in the balance of both land and residential loans which have a higher historical loss factor for purposes of the general allowance calculation. The specific loan loss allowance decreased $9,000 and $6,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, due to adjustments to the reserve on one impaired loan.
The (reversal) provision for loan losses of $(104,000) and $23,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was the result of an analysis performed on the loan portfolio. The general loan loss allowance decreased $104,000 and $50,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 due to a decrease in the balance of non-delinquent loans as a result of loan payoffs and an adjustment to the historical loss factor at the beginning of 2014. The specific loan loss allowance increased $73,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily because a reserve was established during 2014 on a newly impaired loan with a principal balance of $690,000.
Gain on Sales of Real Estate
Gain on sales of real estate increased $12,476,000 and $12,404,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014, as a result of the sale of four real estate properties during the six month period, resulting in gains totaling $14,879,000 (see further detail under “Real Estate Properties Held for Sale and Investment” below). We also recognized $152,000 of deferred gain under the installment method related to the sale of the condominiums located in Santa Barbara, California in 2012 due to the remaining repayment of the carry back loan during the first quarter of 2015.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded deferred gains under the installment method totaling $2,350,000 and $2,627,000, respectively, related to the sale of the condominiums located in Santa Barbara, California in 2012 (and held within Anacapa Villas, LLC), the condominiums located in Oakland, California in 2013 (and held within 1401 on Jackson, LLC) and the parcel of land located in Lake Charles, Louisiana in 2013 (and held within Dation, LLC) due to full or partial principal repayments received on the carry back loans during the periods.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests increased $2,565,000 and $2,531,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2014, because a portion of the gain on sale of real estate in the amount of approximately $2,479,000 was attributable to our joint venture partner in 720 University, LLC (as the shopping center owned by this entity was sold in June 2015).
Financial Condition
June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014
Loan Portfolio
During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, we originated eleven new loans with aggregate principal balances totaling $16,363,000. Five of these loans are incrementally funded for construction, renovation and/or interest and have $1,857,000 available to be funded in the future. We also received full payoffs on three loans totaling $5,828,000 during the quarter.
The number of loans in our portfolio increased from 34 to 40 and the average loan balance decreased from $2,001,000 to $1,740,000, between December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had three and six loans that were impaired totaling approximately $8,862,000 (13%) and $22,316,000 (33%), respectively. This included two and two past maturity loans totaling $8,614,000 (12%) and $8,614,000 (13%), respectively. In addition, one loan of approximately $862,000 (1%) was past maturity but current with respect to monthly payments as of December 31, 2014, (combined total of impaired and past maturity loans of $8,862,000 (13%) and $23,178,000 (34%), respectively). Of the impaired and past maturity loans, no loans were in the process of foreclosure, and no loans involved borrowers who were in bankruptcy as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $69,339,000 (99.6%) and $67,780,000 (99.6%) of our loans are interest-only and require the borrower to make a “balloon payment” on the principal amount upon maturity of the loan. To the extent that a borrower has an obligation to pay mortgage loan principal in a large lump sum payment, its ability to satisfy this obligation may be dependent upon its ability to sell the property, obtain suitable refinancing or otherwise raise a substantial cash amount. As a result, these loans involve a higher risk of default than fully amortizing loans. Borrowers occasionally are not able to pay the full amount due at the maturity date. We may allow these borrowers to continue making the regularly scheduled monthly interest payments for certain periods of time to assist the borrower in meeting the balloon payment obligation without formally filing a notice of default. These loans for which the principal is due and payable, but the borrower has failed to make such payment of principal, are referred to as “past maturity loans”. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had two and three past maturity loans totaling approximately $8,614,000 and $9,476,000, respectively.
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we held the following types of loans:

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our loans secured by real property collateral located in Northern California totaled approximately 77% ($53,474,000) and 78% ($53,073,000), respectively, of the loan portfolio. The Northern California region (which includes Monterey, Fresno, Kings, Tulare and Inyo counties and all counties north) is a large geographic area which has a diversified economic base. The ability of borrowers to repay loans is influenced by the economic strength of the region and the impact of prevailing market conditions on the value of real estate.
The allowance for loan losses increased by $428,000 and $23,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Manager believes that the allowance is appropriate given the estimated underlying collateral values of impaired loans and estimates of probable incurred credit losses on loans not considered to be impaired. There is no precise method used by the Manager to predict delinquency rates or losses on specific loans. The Manager has considered the number and amount of delinquent loans, loans subject to workout agreements and loans in bankruptcy in determining the allowance for loan losses, but there can be no absolute assurance that the allowance is sufficient. Because any decision regarding allowance for loan losses reflects judgment about the probability of losses yet to be realized, there is an inherent risk that such judgments will prove incorrect. Upon realization, actual losses may exceed (or be less than) the amount of any reserve. To the extent that we experience losses greater than the amount of our reserves, we may incur a charge to earnings that will adversely affect operating results and the amount of any dividends paid.
Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was a general allowance for loan losses of $914,457 and $480,000, respectively, and a specific allowance for loan losses on two loans in the total amount of $2,382,941 and $2,389,355, respectively. The increase in the general allowance during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was because the balance of land and residential loans in our portfolio, which loan types have higher historical loss factors, increased at a proportionately greater rate than the balance of commercial loans.
Real Estate Properties Held for Sale and Investment
As of June 30, 2015, the Company held title to twenty-eight properties that were acquired through foreclosure with a total carrying amount of approximately $152,281,000 (including properties held in one corporation and eleven limited liability companies), net of accumulated depreciation on real estate held for investment of $5,900,000. As of June 30, 2015, properties held for sale total $49,762,000 and properties held for investment total $102,519,000. When we acquire property by foreclosure, we typically earn less income on those properties than could be earned on loans and may not be able to sell the properties in a timely manner.
Real estate properties held for sale as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consists of the following properties acquired through foreclosure:

Thirteen of the Company’s twenty-eight properties do not currently generate revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2015, expenses from real estate properties (not including depreciation and impairment losses) have increased from approximately $3,892,000 to $4,350,000 (11.8% increase), respectively, and revenues associated with these properties have increased from approximately $5,674,000 to $6,986,000 (23.1% increase), respectively, thus generating net income (not including depreciation and impairment losses) from real estate properties of $2,636,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 (compared to $1,782,000 for the same period in 2014).
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, we recorded an impairment loss of approximately $147,000 and $1,256,000, respectively, on the unimproved residential and commercial land located in Gypsum, Colorado due to a decrease in the listing price of the property and a reduction in the fair market value estimated by management.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded an impairment loss of $48,000 and $56,000, respectively, on the marina property located in Oakley, California due to a recent decrease in the listing price of the property.

In addition to the above table, we recognized gain of approximately $152,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 that had previously been deferred related to the sale of a real estate property in 2012. The gain on the sale of this property was being accounted for under the installment method.
We sold no properties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014; however, gains aggregating approximately $2,350,000 and $2,626,000 were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 that had previously been deferred related to the sales of real estate properties in 2012 and 2013. The gains on the sales of those properties were being accounted for under the installment method.
Foreclosure Activity
We foreclosed on no loans during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Sandmound, a wholly owned limited liability company of the Company, foreclosed on a first mortgage loan secured by unimproved land and a marina and campground located in Bethel Island, California with a principal balance of $2,960,000 and obtained the properties via the trustee’s sale.In addition, advances made on the loan or incurred as part of the foreclosure (such as legal fees and delinquent property taxes) in the total amount of approximately $282,000 were capitalized to the basis of the properties. The fair market values of the properties acquired were estimated to be higher than Sandmound’s recorded investment in the subject loan, and, thus, a gain on foreclosure in the amount of approximately $257,000 was recorded.
Majority and Wholly-Owned Limited Liability Companies
720 University, LLC
We have an investment in a limited liability company, 720 University, LLC (720 University), which owned a commercial retail property located in Greeley, Colorado. We receive 65% of the profits and losses in 720 University after priority return on partner contributions is allocated at the rate of 10% per annum. The assets, liabilities, income and expenses of 720 University have been consolidated into the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations of the Company.
In November 2014, 720 University entered into a Real Estate Sale Agreement pursuant to which 720 University agreed to sell the property for $20,750,000. On January 30, 2015, an initial closing was held for the purpose of refinancing the existing 720 University note payable, and the buyer extended a new loan to 720 University to repay the existing note payable to the bank. The principal amount of the new loan was $9,771,263 and accrued interest at 6.0% per annum until paid off upon the closing of the sale of the property to the buyer. The sale closed on June 15, 2015 resulting in gain on sale of approximately $8,642,000 ($6,163,000 to the Company after the gain attributable to the non-controlling interest or approximately $2,479,000).
The net income to the Company from 720 University was approximately $6,289,000 and $60,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $6,412,000 and $38,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The non-controlling interest of the joint venture partner was approximately $100,000 and $5,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
TOTB Miami, LLC
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company and two co-lenders (which included OFG and PRC Treasures, LLC, or PRC) foreclosed on a participated, first mortgage loan secured by a condominium complex located in Miami, Florida with a principal balance to the Company of approximately $26,257,000 and obtained an undivided interest in the properties via the trustee’s sale. The Company and the other lenders formed a Florida limited liability company, TOTB Miami, LLC (“TOTB”), to own and operate the complex. The complex consists of three buildings, two of which have been renovated and are being leased, and in which 169 units remain unsold and one which has been contributed to a wholly-owned subsidiary of TOTB, TOTB North, and contains 160 vacant units that are currently being renovated. Based on an appraisal, it was determined that the fair value of the property was lower than our total investment in the loan (including a previously established loan loss allowance of $10,188,000) and an additional charge to provision for loan losses of approximately $450,000 was recorded at the time of foreclosure during the first quarter of 2011 (total charge-off of $10,638,000).
In March 2012, we made a priority capital contribution to TOTB in the amount of $7,200,000. TOTB then purchased PRC’s member interest in TOTB for $7,200,000. Thus, the remaining members in TOTB are now the Company and OFG. On the same date, the Company and OFG executed an amendment to the TOTB operating agreement to set the percentage of capital held by each at 80.74% for the Company and 19.26% for OFG based on the dollar amount of capital invested in TOTB (excluding any Preferred Class A Units). Income and loss allocations are made based on these percentages. The change in capital as a result of the PRC buyout and the amended agreement resulted in an increase to our capital of approximately $2,760,000.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, TOTB contributed the vacant and unimproved 160 unit apartment building to a new wholly-owned entity, TOTB North. TOTB North then entered into a construction loan agreement which will provide up to $21,304,000 for the purpose of renovating and improving the apartment building. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $5,692,000 and $1,008,000, respectively, had been drawn from the construction loan. In addition, TOTB North has entered into various contracts for the design, engineering, first phase demolition and concrete remediation and second phase construction for the renovation project in the aggregate amount of approximately $21,002,000 of which approximately $9,723,000 had been incurred as of June 30, 2015. In addition, another $1,396,000 in renovation-related costs, interest, property taxes, and amortization of deferred financing costs have been capitalized (total of $11,119,000) as of June 30, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company and OFG contributed approximately $453,000 and $108,000, respectively, to TOTB to fund the initial $1,000,000 deposit required pursuant to the construction loan agreement. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company and OFG contributed an additional $1,170,000 and $279,000, respectively, due to increased construction costs on the project.
During 2014, TOTB entered into a new loan agreement whereby it borrowed $13,000,000 secured by the 169 renovated and leased condominium units. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was approximately $12,827,000 and $12,975,000, respectively. The loan bears interest at the floating daily three month LIBOR rate of interest plus 4.0% per annum, but in no event will the rate be lower than 4.25%. The interest rate as of June 30, 2015 was 4.28%. Principal and interest are payable monthly with principal amortizing over 300 months. The initial maturity date is November 16, 2017 which may be extended for two additional one year periods if all conditions in the loan agreement are met. The net cash proceeds from the new loan were distributed to the members of TOTB during 2014 ($10,256,000 to ORM and $2,446,000 to OFG).
The net income to the Company from TOTB was approximately $54,000 and $89,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $80,000 and $209,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively The noncontrolling interest of OFG totaled approximately $4,469,000 and $4,170,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
The approximate net income (loss) from our real estate properties held within wholly-owned limited liability companies and a wholly owned corporation and other investment properties with significant operating results (including gains/losses from sales and impairment losses), for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 not already discussed above are included in the table below. The information presented includes only the revenues and expenses directly related to the properties and no allocations have been made for overhead and other expenses the Company incurs that are not directly related to an individual property.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased from approximately $7,662,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $16,096,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($8,433,000 or 110% increase) due primarily to the sale of four real estate properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015 for net sales proceeds to the Company of approximately $22,615,000 (after distribution to non-controlling interest of $2,479,000 and repayment of debt of $9,771,000 on the 720 University property sale). The increase in cash from these sales was used to repay the lines of credit in full as of June 30, 2015 ($11,450,000 repayments net of advances during 2015).
Interest and Other Receivables
Interest and other receivables increased from approximately $1,482,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $2,003,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($520,000 or 35.1% increase) due primarily to increased rent and CAM receivables from tenants in the recently completed TSV retail complex and increased interest income receivable on loans due to an increase in performing loans in the portfolio since December 31, 2014.
Other Assets
Other assets decreased from approximately $1,138,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $652,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($486,000 or 42.8% decrease) due primarily to the sales of the shopping center in Greeley, Colorado (720 University) and the industrial building in Sunnyvale, California (Wolfe Central) and the resulting de-recognition of net lease commissions and deferred rent related to those properties.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs decreased from approximately $1,318,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $1,085,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($232,000 or 17.6% decrease) due to amortization of deferred financing costs during the six month period. In addition, we paid approximately $42,000 in deferred financing costs during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 related to the additional $10,000,000 credit added to the CB&T Credit Facility during the quarter.
Dividends Payable
Dividends payable increased from approximately $1,292,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $1,938,000 as of
June 30, 2015 ($646,000 or 50% increase) because the dividend declared and accrued as of June 30, 2015 included a regular dividend of $0.08 per share and a special dividend of $0.10 per share (total of $0.18 per share), whereas the December 31, 2014 dividend included a regular dividend of $0.05 per share and a special dividend of $0.07 per share (total of $0.12 per share).
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased from approximately $2,220,000 as of December 31, 2014 to approximately $4,568,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($2,348,000 or 105.8% increase) due primarily to increased payables related to the construction activities on the property owned by TOTB North as the main construction project commenced in the beginning of 2015.
Deferred Gains
Deferred gains decreased from approximately $362,000 as of December 31, 2014 to approximately $210,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($152,000 or 42.1% decrease) due to the receipt of the remaining principal repayment on one carryback loan during the six months ended June 30, 2015, resulting in the recognition of additional gain under the installment method of $152,000.
Lines of Credit Payable
Lines of credit payable decreased from $11,450,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $0 as of June 30, 2015 ($11,450,000 or 100% decrease) due to the receipt of proceeds from the sales of four real estate properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015, which allowed us to fully repay the balances on the lines of credit.
Notes and Loans Payable on Real Estate
Notes and loans payable decreased from $37,570,000 as of December 31, 2014 to $32,255,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($5,315,000 or 14.2% decrease) due primarily to the full repayment of the note payable securing the 720 University shopping center in the amount of $9,771,000 at the time of sale in June 2015 and principal payments totaling $258,000 on the loans securing the TOTB Miami condominium units and the TSV retail property, net of additional advances on the TOTB North construction loan of $4,684,000 during 2015.
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests increased from approximately $4,175,000 as of December 31, 2014 to approximately $4,569,000 as of June 30, 2015 ($394,000 or 9.4% increase), due primarily to a cash contribution made by OFG of $279,000 during 2015 as a result of additional deposits needed from the members for the TOTB North construction project prior to being able to borrow additional funds from the construction loan.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations
We utilize supplemental non-GAAP measures of operating performance, including funds from operations (“FFO”), an industry-wide standard measure of REIT operating performance. We believe FFO provides investors with additional information concerning our operating performance and a basis to compare our performance with that of other REITs. We determine FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), plus depreciation and amortization of real estate and other assets, amortization of deferred financing costs, impairments of real estate assets, provisions for loan losses and losses from sales of real estate, reduced by gains from sales of real estate and foreclosures of loans, accretion of discounts on loans and extraordinary items, and after adjustments for unconsolidated ventures.
Our calculation of FFO may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other REITs. This non‐GAAP financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of our operating performance or to cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of liquidity, nor is it indicative of cash flows from operating and financial activities.
We urge investors to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and quarterly earnings releases.
The following table reconciles FFO to comparable GAAP financial measures:

Asset Quality
A consequence of lending activities is that losses will be experienced and that the amount of such losses will vary from time to time, depending on the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio as affected by economic conditions and the financial experiences of borrowers. Many of these factors are beyond our control. There is no precise method of predicting specific losses or amounts that ultimately may be charged off on specific loans or on segments of the loan portfolio.
The conclusion that a Company loan may become uncollectible, in whole or in part, is a matter of judgment. Although institutional lenders are subject to regulations that, among other things, require them to perform ongoing analyses of their loan portfolios (including analyses of loan-to-value ratios, reserves, etc.), and to obtain current information regarding their borrowers and the securing properties, we are not subject to these regulations and have not adopted these practices. Rather, management, in connection with the quarterly closing of our accounting records and the preparation of the financial statements, evaluates our loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in our loan portfolio and current economic conditions. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which the management determines that full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters the following:
|
prevailing economic conditions;
|
|
our historical loss experience;
|
|
the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio;
|
|
borrowers’ financial condition and adverse situations that may affect the borrowers’ ability to pay;
|
|
evaluation of industry trends;
|
|
review and evaluation of loans identified as having loss potential; and
|
|
estimated net realizable value or fair value of the underlying collateral.
|
Based upon this evaluation, a determination is made as to whether the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable incurred credit losses. Additions to the allowance for loan losses are made by charges to the provision for loan losses. Loan losses deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Recoveries of previously charged off amounts are credited to the allowance for loan losses. As of June 30, 2015, management believes that the allowance for loan losses of approximately $3,297,000 is adequate in amount to cover probable incurred losses. Because of the number of variables involved, the magnitude of swings possible and management’s inability to control many of these factors, actual results may and do sometimes differ significantly from estimates made by management. As of June 30, 2015, three loans totaling $8,862,000 were impaired. This includes two past maturity loans totaling $8,614,000. After management’s evaluation of the loan portfolio, we recorded an increase in the allowance for loan losses of approximately $428,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 (decrease in specific loan loss allowance of $6,000 and increase in general allowance of $434,000). Management believes that the specific allowance for loan losses is appropriate given the estimated fair values of the underlying collateral of impaired loans.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, fund and maintain our assets and operations, make distributions to our stockholders and other general business needs.
We believe our available cash and restricted cash balances, other financing arrangements, and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our liquidity requirements for the next 12 months.
We require liquidity to:
|
•
|
|
fund future loan investments;
|
|
•
|
|
to improve and maintain real estate properties;
|
|
•
|
|
to repay principal and interest on our borrowings;
|
|
•
|
|
to pay our expenses, including compensation to our Manager;
|
|
•
|
|
to pay U.S. federal, state, and local taxes of our TRSs; and
|
|
•
|
|
to distribute a minimum of 90% of our REIT taxable income and to make investments in a manner that enables us to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
|
We intend to meet these liquidity requirements primarily through the following:
|
•
|
|
the use of our cash and cash equivalent balances of $8,740,000 as of June 30, 2015;
|
|
•
|
|
cash generated from operating activities, including interest income from our loan portfolio and income generated from our real estate properties;
|
|
•
|
|
proceeds from the sales of real estate properties;
|
|
•
|
|
proceeds from our revolving lines of credit;
|
|
•
|
|
proceeds from the construction loan obtained by TOTB North;
|
|
•
|
|
proceeds from future borrowings, including additional lines of credit; and
|
|
•
|
|
proceeds from potential future offerings of our equity securities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, our cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $7,326,000 primarily due to proceeds received from the sales of four real estate properties net of repayments of debt during the six month period.
Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities are primarily rental and other income from real estate properties, net of real estate expenses, and interest received from our investments in loans, partially offset by payment of operating expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, cash flows from operating activities increased $3,661,000, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase reflects increased cash flow from rental properties as a result of increased occupancy and rental rates, completion and leasing of the TSV retail complex during the fourth quarter of 2014 and increased interest income on performing loans and collected on impaired loans during 2015.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for both periods presented reflect our investing activity. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, cash flows from investing activities increased $43,234,000. Approximately $24,386,000 was provided by investing activities during the six month period as $62,586,000 was received from the sales of real estate properties and the payoff of loans, which was partially offset by an aggregate of $38,249,000 that was used for investment in loans, improvements to real estate properties and transfer to restricted cash during the period.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled approximately $21,057,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and consisted primarily of $11,450,000 of net repayments on our lines of credit, $5,315,000 of net repayments on notes payable, $2,484,000 of distributions to non-controlling interests and $2,046,000 of dividends paid to stockholders.
Dividends
We intend to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of our common stock. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT annually distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and to the extent that it annually distributes less than 100% of its net taxable income in any taxable year, and that it pay tax at regular corporate rates on that undistributed portion. We intend to make regular quarterly distributions to our stockholders in an amount equal to or greater than our net taxable income, if and to the extent authorized by our Board of Directors. Before we make any distributions, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our debt payable. If our cash available for distribution is less than our net taxable income, we could be required to sell assets or borrow funds to make cash distributions or we may make a portion of the required distribution in the form of a taxable stock distribution or distribution of debt securities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured investment vehicles, special purpose entities or VIEs, established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Further, we have not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities or entered into any commitment or intend to provide additional funding to any such entities.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
There were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business in the contractual obligations and commitments as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. All of our debt obligations are described in more detail in Note 7 — “Lines of Credit Payable” and Note 8 – “Notes and Loans Payable on Real Estate.” Refer to Note 13 — “Commitments and Contingencies” and below for a description of our other contractual obligations as of June 30, 2015.
Company Debt
The terms of the Company debt are described in more detail in Note 7 – “Lines of Credit Payable” and Note 8 – “Notes and Loans Payable on Real Estate”.
CB&T Line of Credit

As of the date of this filing, the total amount available to borrow under the CB&T Credit Facility is $16,313,000 and the balance outstanding is $4,548,000 (leaving $11,765,000 available). Interest on borrowings under the CB&T Credit Facility are payable monthly and all amounts outstanding under the facility are to be repaid not later than February 5, 2016 and advances may be made up to that date.

As of the date of this filing, the total amount available to borrow is approximately $12,626,000 and the balance outstanding is $0 (leaving $12,626,000 available). Commencing on May 1, 2016, in addition to the required monthly interest payments, we are required to make mandatory monthly principal payments and all amounts under the facility are to be repaid not later than April 1, 2017. Advances under the Opus Credit Facility may be made by Opus until April 1, 2016.
TOTB North, LLC Construction Loan
The North Loan will provide up to $21,304,000, subject to customary conditions, and the balance of the North Loan was approximately $5,692,000 as of June 30, 2015 and approximately $7,874,000 as of the date of this filing. The initial maturity date (“Maturity Date”) of the North Loan is June 12, 2017, which may be extended at the option of TOTB North for two additional one year periods subject to certain conditions. Monthly interest only payments are required until the Amortization Commencement date (as defined in the agreements), at which time monthly principal payments are also required and the balance of the loan is due on the Maturity Date.
TOTB Miami, LLC Loan Payable
The full amount available under the TOTB Miami Loan has been borrowed, and the balance of the TOTB Miami Loan was approximately $12,827,000 as of June 30, 2015 and approximately $12,778,000 as of the date of this filing. The initial maturity date (the “Maturity Date”) of the TOTB Miami Loan is November 16, 2017, which may be extended at the option of TOTB Miami for two additional one year periods subject to certain conditions. Principal and interest is payable monthly and the balance of the loan is due on the Maturity Date.
Tahoe Stateline Venture, LLC Loan Payable
The balance of the TSV Loan was approximately $10,335,000 as of June 30, 2015 and $10,290,000 as of the date of this filing. Up to an additional $4,055,000 will be available to TSV in one or more future advances, provided that no event of default has occurred under the TSV Loan documents and that such additional advances do not result in a pro forma Debt Service Coverage ratio (as defined in the agreements) of less than 1.25:1.00. TSV will make monthly payments of principal and accrued interest and the balance of the loan is due on the maturity date, which is January 1, 2021.
720 University, LLC Note Payable
We had a secured note payable with a bank through our investment in 720 University with a balance of $9,741,000 as of December 31, 2014. The note required amortized monthly payments of $56,816 at a fixed rate of 5.07%, with the balance of unpaid principal due on March 1, 2015. In November 2014, 720 University entered into an agreement to sell the property that collateralized this note, and the buyer extended a new interest-only, secured loan to 720 University to repay the existing note payable. The refinancing closed in January 2015. The principal amount of the new loan was $9,771,263 and it accrued interest at 6.0% per annum until paid off with the closing of the sale of the property to the buyer on June 15, 2015.
Tahoe Stateline Venture, LLC Notes Payable
We had two secured notes payable in the aggregate amount of $3,400,000 as of June 30 2015. One note with a principal balance of $2,900,000 as of June 30, 2015 requires semi-annual interest-only payments and is due in December 2016, and one note with a principal balance of $500,000 at June 30 2015 requires quarterly interest-only payments and is due in August 2017.
Commitments and Contingencies
As of June 30, 2015, we have commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers of construction, rehabilitation and other loans (including interest reserves) in the total amount of approximately $7,115,000.
We have an obligation to pay all required costs to remediate and monitor contamination of the real properties owned by 1850 De La Cruz, LLC (“1850”). As part of the Operating Agreement executed by the Company and its joint venture partner in 1850, Nanook, we have indemnified Nanook against all obligations related to the expected costs to monitor and remediate the contamination. In 2008, we accrued an amount that a third party consultant had estimated will need to be paid to monitor and remediate the site. The majority of clean-up activities were completed during 2012 as part of the tenant’s construction of a new building on the site. Thus, approximately $460,000 was paid by us from the previously established liability, and an additional $100,000 was accrued during the year ended December 31, 2012 as a result of an updated estimate of future costs to be incurred. If additional amounts are required, it will be an obligation of the Company. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $45,000 and $60,000, respectively, of this obligation remains accrued on our books. We expect that all costs for this remediation will be paid from cash reserves.
During the course of due diligence performed by a potential buyer of TOTB in 2012, a low level of arsenic was found in the ground water of a monitoring well located on the property. While the level of arsenic exceeds the minimum level acceptable for drinking water standards, the water under this property is subject to tidal influence and is not used for domestic consumption. TOTB has retained an environmental consultant to perform additional testing and analysis with the goal of petitioning the appropriate governmental agency to issue a no further action letter for this property due to the low level of contamination and the low quality of the ground water under the property. At this time, the costs of any potential remediation and/or monitoring are unknown and cannot be estimated. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $98,000 and $79,000, respectively, had been accrued and/or paid for testing and analysis.
We have entered into various contracts for design, architectural and engineering for the potential phase II development of the land owned by TSV. The aggregate amount of these contracts as of the date of this filing is approximately $1,704,000 of which approximately $965,000 has been incurred as of June 30, 2015. We expect that all costs for this project will be paid from cash reserves, new debt and/or the lines of credit.
We have entered into contracts for the construction, demolition and concrete remediation, design, architectural and engineering services related to the renovation of the vacant apartment building owned by TOTB North in the aggregate amount of approximately $21,002,000 of which approximately $9,723,000 has been incurred to June 30, 2015 in addition to other capitalized costs related to the construction project of $1,396,000 (total of $11,119,000). The Company expects that all costs for this project will be paid from cash reserves or the recently obtained construction loan. It is possible that additional change orders will be submitted and construction costs may be higher than expected.
We have entered into contracts for new bathrooms and modular offices and improvements to the bridge that accesses the marina held within Brannan Island, LLC in the aggregate amount of approximately $791,000 of which approximately $633,000 has been incurred to June 30, 2015. We expect that all costs for the project will be paid from cash reserves or advances from the lines of credit. It is possible that additional change orders will be submitted and construction costs may be higher than expected.
Contingency Reserves
We are required to maintain cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as contingency reserves in an aggregate amount of at least 1.50% of Capital (as defined in our charter). Although the Manager believes the contingency reserves are adequate, it could become necessary for us to sell or otherwise liquidate certain of our investments or other assets to cover such contingencies on terms which might not be favorable to us. The contingency reserves held in cash and cash equivalents were approximately $4,095,000 and $3,876,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and real estate values. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are real estate risk and interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control.
Our operating results are exposed to the risks related to interest rate fluctuations as the results depend to a significant extent on the differences between income from our loans and our borrowing costs. We generally originate fixed rate loan investments and partially finance those investments with floating rate liabilities. Our investments in fixed rate assets are generally exposed to changes in value due to interest rate fluctuations; however, the short maturity and low debt to investments of our loan portfolio are intended to partially offset that risk. Our average weighted maturity of loans as of June 30, 2015 is approximately 14 months. In addition, our outstanding variable rate debt to loan investments as of June 30, 2015 is 27%.
The following table projects the potential impact on our interest expense for a 12-month period assuming an instantaneous increase of 100 basis points in 3 Month LIBOR and one percent in the Prime Rate based on balances outstanding as of June 30, 2015:

In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, default on our loan portfolio could increase and result in losses to us. Such delinquencies or defaults could also have an adverse effect on the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Credit Risks
Our loans and investments are also subject to credit risk. The performance and value of our loans and investments depend upon the borrowers’ ability to operate the properties that serve as our collateral so that they produce cash flows adequate to pay interest and principal due to us and the borrowers’ ability to refinance the loans or sell the underlying collateral upon maturity. To monitor this risk, our Manager’s asset management team reviews our investment portfolios and in certain instances is in regular contact with our borrowers, monitoring performance of the collateral and enforcing our rights as necessary.
In addition, we are exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including variances in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates, and other macroeconomic factors beyond our control. We seek to manage these risks through our underwriting and asset management processes.
Counterparty Risk
The nature of our business requires us to hold our cash and cash equivalents and obtain financing from various financial institutions. This exposes us to the risk that these financial institutions may not fulfill their obligations to us under these various contractual arrangements. We mitigate this exposure by depositing our cash and cash equivalents and entering into financing and agreements with high quality credit institutions.
The nature of our loans and investments also expose us to the risk that our counterparties do not make required interest and principal payments on scheduled due dates. We seek to manage this risk through our credit analysis prior to making an investment and actively monitoring the asset portfolios that serve as our collateral.
Real Estate Risk
Commercial mortgage assets may be viewed as exposing an investor to greater risk of loss than residential mortgage assets since such assets are typically secured by larger loans to fewer obligors than residential mortgage assets. Multi-family and commercial property values and net operating income derived from such properties are subject to volatility and may be affected adversely by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, events such as natural disasters including hurricanes and earthquakes, acts of war and/or terrorism and others that may cause unanticipated and uninsured performance declines and/or losses to us or the owners and operators of the real estate securing our investment; national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions (such as an oversupply of housing, retail, industrial, office or other commercial space); changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, construction delays, construction cost, age and design; demographic factors; retroactive changes to building or similar codes; and increases in operating expenses (such as energy costs). In the event net operating income decreases, a borrower may have difficulty repaying our loans, which could result in losses to us. In addition, decreases in property values reducing the value of collateral and a lack of liquidity in the market, could reduce the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay our loans, which could also cause us to suffer losses. Even when the net operating income is sufficient to cover the related property's debt service, there can be no assurance that this will continue to be the case in the future.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management of the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2015. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2015, which is the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company may become involved in various types of legal proceedings including, but not limited to, assignment of rents, bankruptcy proceedings, appointment of receivers, unlawful detainers, and judicial foreclosure. These proceedings may seek to enforce the provisions of the deeds of trust, collect the debt owed under the promissory notes, or to protect, or recoup the Company’s investment from the real property secured by the deeds of trust. The Company believes that it is not party to any pending legal or arbitration proceedings that would have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations or cash flows, although it is possible that the outcome of any such proceedings could have a material impact on net income in any particular period.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
