HMG/COURTLAND PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2010. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 was derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HMG/Courtland Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) and entities in which the Company owns a majority voting interest or controlling financial interest. All material transactions and balances with consolidated and unconsolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation or as required under the equity method.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements – a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.” This ASU amended the criteria for when to evaluate individual delivered items in a multiple deliverable arrangement and how to allocate consideration received. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS,” which provides common requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which improves the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and increases the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment”. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR MONTY’S RESTAURANT, MARINA AND OFFICE/RETAIL PROPERTY, COCONUT GROVE, FLORIDA

The Company, through two 50%-owned entities, Bayshore Landing, LLC (“Landing”) and Bayshore Rawbar, LLC (“Rawbar”), (collectively, “Bayshore”) owns a restaurant, office/retail and marina property located in Coconut Grove (Miami), Florida known as Monty’s (the “Monty’s Property”).

In March 2011 Bayshore amended its loan agreement with the same bank. Effective March 11, 2011 the principal balance of the loan was paid down by approximately $1.6 million to $8.8 million with the proceeds of the restricted cash balance and the remaining restricted cash balances were released by the bank. The loan is to be repaid in monthly installments of approximately $81,500 including principal and interest. Interest remains at the same terms, and the swap agreement remains in place for the reduced balance. The note is due, with a balloon payment on August 19, 2020. The agreement with the bank contains certain covenants with which the Company is in compliance. In conjunction with this loan amendment Bayshore was required to pay down the interest rate swap contract liability by $198,400, as discussed in Note 7 below.

Summarized combined statements of income for Landing and Rawbar for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010are presented below (Note: the Company’s ownership percentage in these operations is 50%):

4. INVESTMENTS IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Investments in marketable securities consist primarily of large capital corporate equity and debt securities in varying industries or issued by government agencies with readily determinable fair values. These securities are stated at market value, as determined by the most recent traded price of each security at the balance sheet date. Consistent with the Company’s overall current investment objectives and activities its entire marketable securities portfolio is classified as trading.

  $ (173,000 )   $ 208,000     $ (141,000 )   $ 179,000  
 
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 net unrealized losses from trading securities were $209,000 and $256,000, respectively. This is compared to a net unrealized gain of $181,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and a net unrealized loss of $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011 net realized gain from sales of marketable securities was $36,000, and consisted of $65,000 of gross gains net of $29,000 of gross losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 net realized gain from sales of marketable securities was $115,000, and consisted of $169,000 of gross gains net of $54,000 of gross losses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 net realized gain from sales of marketable securities was $27,000, and consisted of $39,000 of gross gains net of $12,000 of gross losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 net realized gain from sales of marketable securities was $279,000, and consisted of $476,000 of gross gains net of $197,000 of gross losses.

Investment gains and losses on marketable securities may fluctuate significantly from period to period in the future and could have a significant impact on the Company’s net earnings. However, the amount of investment gains or losses on marketable securities for any given period has no predictive value and variations in amount from period to period have no practical analytical value.

5. OTHER INVESTMENTS
As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s portfolio of other investments had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $3.7 million. The Company has committed to fund an additional $808,000 as required by agreements with the investees. The carrying value of these investments is equal to contributions less distributions and loss valuation adjustments. During the three months ended September 30, 2011 the Company committed to a new investment in the amount of $250,000, of which $25,000 was funded as of September 30, 2011. This investment is a power and energy real estate fund. Total cash contributions to other investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011were approximately $56,000 and $175,000, respectively. Total cash distributions from other investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were approximately $50,000 and $169,000, respectively. These distributions were primarily from investments in partnerships owning diversified operating companies and real estate.

When evaluating the investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment’s amortized cost basis.

In accordance with ASC Topic 320-10-65, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (“OTTI”) as of September 30, 2011 OTTI impairment valuation adjustments totaled $87,000primarily from an investment in a real estate partnership which leases executive suites in Miami, Florida (as discussed above). As of September 30, 2010 OTTI impairment valuation adjustments totaled $50,000 primarily from an investment in a real estate fund.

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company discloses the fair value of its financial instruments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements), and gives the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements). Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term on the financial instrument.
 
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below by hierarchy as of September 30 2011 and December 31, 2010:

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, $87,000 and $50,000 of OTTI adjustments were recognized. No OTTI adjustments were recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

The OTTI loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily consists of a recognized impairment loss of approximately $84,000 in an investment in a partnership which operates and leases executive suites in Miami, Florida. The Company has funded $120,000 to date in this investment and the losses incurred were primarily associated with the initial start up of the venture in 2010.

 
(a)
This class of other investments above which are measured on a nonrecurring basis using Level 2 input or recent observable information. These include investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent such as member units or an ownership interest in partners’ capital to which a proportionate share of net assets is attributed, “NAV”). This class primarily consists of private equity funds that have varying investment focus. These investments can never be redeemed with the funds. Instead, the nature of the investments in this class is that distributions are received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of the fund. If these investments were held it is estimated that the underlying assets of the fund would be liquidated over 5 to 10 years. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, it is probable that all of the investments in this class will be sold at an amount different from the NAV of the Company’s ownership interest in partners’ capital. Therefore, the fair values of the investments in this class have been estimated using recent observable information such as audited financial statements and/or statements of partners’ capital obtained directly from investees on a quarterly or other regular basis.

(b)
This class of other investments above which are measured on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 unobservable inputs consist of investments primarily in commercial real estate in Florida through private partnerships and two investments in the stock of private banks in Florida and Texas. The Company does not know when it will have the ability to redeem the investments and has categorized them as a Level 3 fair value measurement. The Level 3 real estate and related investments of approximately $1 million primarily consist of one investment in a commercial building located near the Company’s offices purchased in 2005. This investment is measured using primarily inputs provided by the managing member of the partnerships with whom the Company has done similar transactions in the past and is well known to management. The fair values of these real estate investments have been estimated using the net asset value of the Company’s ownership interest in partners’ capital. There have been no gains or losses realized or unrealized relating to these investments. The investments in private bank stocks include a private bank and trust located in Coral Gables, Florida in the amount of $250,000 made in 2009, and a $50,000 investment in a bank located in El Campo, Texas made in 2010. The fair values of these bank stock investments have been estimated using the cost method less distributions received and other than temporary impairments. This investment is valued using inputs provided by the management of the banks.
 
The following table includes a roll-forward of the investments classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the nine months ended September 30, 2011:
 
   
Level 3 Investments:
 
Balance at January 1, 2011

    (87,000 )

    38,000  
Balance at September 30, 2011
  $ 1,281,000  
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the Company transferred approximately $38,000 from level 2 to level 3 to correct a misclassification of an investment in a real estate partnership as of December 31, 2010.

7. INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACT

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk through its borrowing activities. In order to minimize the effect of changes in interest rates, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap contract under which the Company agrees to pay an amount equal to a specified rate of 7.57% times a notional principal approximating the outstanding loan balance, and to receive in return an amount equal to 2.45% plus the one-month LIBOR Rate times the same notional amount. The Company designated this interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge.

In conjunction with amendment of the Bayshore bank loan in March 2011 (Note 3), the interest rate swap contract liability was paid down by $198,400 (in the same proportion as the amount of the loan principal paid down). This amount represents a previously unrealized loss which upon pay down of the swap was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income and recorded as a realized loss on interest rate swap contract within the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
 
 
10

 
 
As of September 30, 2011 the fair value of this hedge was an unrealized loss of $1,976,000, as compared with an unrealized loss of $1,462,000 as of December 31, 2010 which resulted in an unrealized loss of $514,000 (or $257,000, net of noncontrolling interest) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This amount has been recorded as other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to interest expense over the life of the contract.

9. INCOME TAXES
We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” on January 1, 2007. This topic clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance requires that the Company determine whether the benefits of the Company’s tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. Topic 740-10 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our consolidated financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of September 30, 2011.

We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the consolidated financial statements as selling, general and administrative expense.

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In March 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the 2011 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), which was approved by the shareholders on August 25, 2011. The 2011 Stock Option Plan replaces the 2000 Stock Option Plan and all outstanding options under the 2001 Plan have expired. The Plan provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the officers and directors of the Company. On March 23, 2011 options were granted to all officers and directors to purchase an aggregate of 118,300 common shares at no less than 100% of the fair market value at the date of grant. These options were issued after approval of the Plan by shareholders on August 25, 2011. These options are vested when issued, except for some of the stock options granted to the President and CEO which vest in 2012 and 2013. Options are not transferable and expire upon termination of employment, except to a limited extent in the event of retirement, disability or death of the grantee. Stock options issued to the CEO have an exercise price of 110% of the fair market value at the date of grant. The average exercise price of the options granted in 2011 was $5.03 per share. The Company’s stock price on the date of grant was $4.80 per share.

The Company’s policy is to record stock compensation expense in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. Options granted during 2011 were valued at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have some vesting restrictions and are not transferable. The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the nine months in 2011 was $.63 and was determined using the following assumptions: expected price volatility 16.25%, risk-free interest rate ranging between .11% and .47%, zero expected dividend yield and five years expected life of options.  The Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. It is management’s opinion that the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock options.

The Company’s non-employee stock compensation expense based on the fair value at the date of grant for stock options was approximately $49,000for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and is included in the results of operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no such expense in the prior comparable period.

As of September 30, 2011, there was approximately $26,000 of total unrecognized non-employee stock compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the Plan. This expense is expected to be recognized over the vesting periods ending August 25, 2012 and 2013.

A summary of the status of the Company’s stock option plan as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and changes during the periods ending on those dates are presented below:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the same periods in 2010, spa revenues increased by $38,000 (or 22%) and $32,000 (or 8%), respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the same periods in 2010, spa expenses increased by $52,000 (or 34%) and $70,000 (or 20%), respectively. The increases in revenue and expenses were primarily due to extended promotional program offering services at discounted prices.

Net realized and unrealized (loss) gain from investments in marketable securities:
Net realized and unrealized (loss) gain from investments in marketable securities for the three months ended September 30, 2011and 2010 was approximately ($173,000) and $208,000, respectively. Net realized and unrealized (loss) gain from investments in marketable securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately ($141,000) and $179,000, respectively.

Net income from other investments:
Net income from other investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $10,000 and $56,000, respectively. This is as compared to gains of approximately $24,000 and $242,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. Additionally, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 other than temporary impairment valuation losses of $87,000 and $50,000, respectively, were recognized. There were no other than temporary impairment valuation losses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. For further details refer to Note 5 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited).

Interest, dividend and other income:
Interest, dividend and other income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $34,000 and $160,000, respectively. This is as compared to income of approximately $100,000 and $278,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decreases in the three and nine month comparable periods were$66,000 (66%) and $118,000 (42%), respectively. These decreases were primarily a result of reduced interest and dividends due to decreased investments in marketable securities and also due to decreased service fee income earned by Courtland Houston, Inc.

EXPENSES
Expenses for rental and other properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $212,000 and $560,000, respectively. This is as compared to the same expenses of approximately $221,000 and $540,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. These changes were not significant.

For comparisons of all food and beverage related expenses refer to Restaurant Operations (above) summarized statement of income for Monty’s restaurant.

For comparisons of all marina related expenses refer to Marina Operations (above) for summarized and combined statements of income for marina operations.

For comparisons of all spa related expenses refer to Spa Operations (above) for summarized statements of income for spa operations.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010increased by $28,000 (13%) and $135,000 (19%), respectively. This increase in the nine month comparable periods was primarily due increased amortization approximately $169,000 relating to loan costs associated with the Monty’s and Grove Isle loan modifications completed in March and April 2011. This increase in amortization expense was partially offset by decreased depreciation expense of approximately $31,000 as a result of increased amount of fully depreciated fixed assets related to Bayshore Rawbar.

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010increased by approximately $21,000 (22%) primarily due to non-employee stock compensation expense of $49,000 relating to stock options issued in August 2011 (See Note 10 Stock Based Compensation). This increase was partially offset by decreased corporate administrative expenses. General and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 decreased by approximately $23,000 (7%) primarily due to decreased corporate administrative expenses.

EFFECT OF INFLATION:
Inflation affects the costs of operating and maintaining the Company’s investments. In addition, rentals under certain leases are based in part on the lessee’s sales and tend to increase with inflation, and certain leases provide for periodic adjustments according to changes in predetermined price indices.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL EXPENDITURE REQUIREMENTS AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s material commitments primarily consist of maturities of debt obligations of approximately $6.3 million in 2011 and contributions committed to other investments of approximately $808,000 due upon demand. The funds necessary to meet these obligations are expected from the proceeds from the sales of properties or investments, bank construction loan, refinancing of existing bank loans, distributions from investments and available cash.

In April 2011 the Company renewed and modified the existing bank mortgage note payable on the Grove Isle property with the same lender. In conjunction with the renewal and modification the principal balance of the loan was paid down by $650,000. As of September 30, 2011 the principal amount outstanding is $2.8 million. The loan matures on December 31, 2011 and calls for the same monthly principal payments of $10,000 plus interest calculated at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 3%. At maturity we have an option to extend the loan to December 31, 2012 under essentially the same terms as the current loan agreement.

Also included in the maturing debt obligations for 2011 is a note payable to the Company’s 49% owned affiliate, T.G.I.F. Texas, Inc. (“TGIF”) of approximately $3.3 million due on demand. The obligation due to TGIF will be paid with funds available from distributions from its investment in TGIF and from available cash.

MATERIAL COMPONENTS OF CASH FLOWS
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $47,000. This was primarily from the Company’s rental operations cash flow.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $118,000. This consisted primarily of approximately $1.1 million in purchases of marketable securities, contributions to other investments of $175,000 and additions to fixed assets of $170,000. These uses of funds were partially offset by $1.2 million in net proceeds from sales of marketable securities and distributions from other investment of $169,000.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash used in financing activities was approximately $631,000. This primarily consisted of loan principal repayments of $2.7 million, interest rate swap contract partial settlement of $198,000, and distributions to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities of $101,000. These uses of funds were partially offset sources of funds consisting of withdraws from restricted cash accounts of $2.4 million in conjunction with Bayshore loan amendment completed in March 2011 and after which no restricted cash balance remains.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company was a co-defendant in two lawsuits in the circuit court in Miami Dade County Florida. These cases arose from claims by a condominium association and resident seeking a declaratory judgment regarding certain provisions of the declaration of condominium relating to the Grove Isle Club and the developer. The claim by the association has been dismissed as to all counts related to the Company however the association has filed an appeal. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend its position. The ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined. However, in management’s opinion the likelihood of a material adverse outcome is remote. Accordingly, adjustments, if any that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the financial statements.
