  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations, although management believes the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring matters) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operation.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We have determined that we are a primary beneficiary of the VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impacts its economic performance, and (ii) the obligations to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider qualitative and quantitative factors, including ownership interest, management representation, ability to control decision and other contractual rights.

We account for entities in which we have less than a controlling financial interest or entities where we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, we include our share of the net earnings or losses of these entities in our results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB" issued ASU 2023-09 Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose additional information with respect to the effective tax rate reconciliation and to disclose the disaggregation by jurisdiction of income tax expense and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of these standards on our consolidated financial statements.

  1. Operating Segments

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") reviews information to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions. Our CODM is our President and Chief Executive Officer. We operate intwo reportable segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily properties ("Residential Segment") and (ii) the acquisition, ownership and management of commercial real estate properties ("Commercial Segment"). The services for our segments include rental of property and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The key operating metric that the CODM utilizes to evaluate the segments is net operating income ("NOI"), which we defined as property revenue less direct property operating expenses. NOI excludes depreciation, interest income and expenses, general and administrative expenses, advisory fees and income taxes.

The following table presents our reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Construction Activities

Construction in progress consists of the development of Windmill Farms and the costs associated with our ground-up development projects.

Windmill Farms is a collection of freshwater districts ("Districts") in Kaufman County Texas that is being developed into single family lots, multifamily properties andretail properties. In connection with the project, we develop the infrastructure in Windmill Farms in order for the land to appreciate and to sell land units (“lots”) to home builders for construction of single family homes. We receive reimbursement of the infrastructure costs ("District Receivables") through the issuance of municipal bonds by the Districts. As of September 30, 2025, we have$55,657 in District Receivables included in other assets(See Note 10 –Other Assets) and$47,066 of land lot development costs included in construction in progress.

We have entered into several development agreements with Pillar (See Note 12 –Related Party Transactions) to develop multifamily properties. Each of these development projects is being funded in part by a construction loan (See Note 11 –Mortgages and Other Notes Payable).

  1. Related Party Transactions

We engage in certain business transactions with related parties, including but not limited to asset acquisition and dispositions of real estate. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s length basis due to the absence of free market forces that naturally exist in business dealings between two or more unrelated entities. Related party transactions may not always be favorable to our business and may include terms, conditions and agreements that are not necessarily beneficial to or in our best interest.

Pillar and Regis are wholly owned by a subsidiary of May Realty Holdings, Inc. ("MRHI"), which owns appro ximately 90.8% of ARL, which in turn owns approximately 78.4% of the Company. Pillar is compensated for advisory services in accordance with an advisory agreement and is compensated for development services in accordance with project specific agreements.

Notes receivable include amounts held by UHF (See Note 9 – Notes Receivable). UHF is deemed to be a related party due to our significant investment in the performance of the collateral secured by the notes receivable.

  1. Noncontrolling Interests

The noncontrolling interest represents the third party ownership interest in Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. ("IOR"). Shares of IOR are listed on the NYSE American stock exchange under the symbol of IOR.

On December 16, 2024, we announced an offer ("Tender Offer") to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the outstanding common shares of IOR at a price of $18 per share, subject to certain conditions. The Tender Offer was completed on January 29, 2025, which resulted in our acquisition of 21,678 shares for a total cost of $454. In addition, we purchased an additional 32,845 common shares of IOR in the open market during thenine months ended September 30, 2025 for a total cost of $583.

We owned approximately 84.5% and 83.2% of IOR at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

  1. Deferred Income

In previous years, we sold properties to related parties at a gain, and therefore the sales criteria for the full accrual method was not met, and as such, we deferred the gain recognition and accounted for the sales by applying the finance, deposit, installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate. The gain on these transactions is deferred until the properties are sold to a non-related third party. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had deferred gain of $581.

  1. Income Taxes

We are part of a tax sharing and compensating agreement with respect to federal income taxes with MRHI, ARL and IOR.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

We believe that we will generate excess cash from property operations in the next twelve months; such excess, however, might not be sufficient to discharge all of our obligations as they become due. We intend to sell income-producing assets, refinance real estate and obtain additional borrowings primarily secured by real estate to meet our liquidity requirements.

We are defendants in litigation related to a property sale ("Nixdorf") that was completed in 2008, which was tried to a jury in March 2023. On March 18, 2023, the jury in the case returned a “Plaintiff take nothing” verdict in our favor. On January 7, 2025, the Fifth District Court of Appeals at Dallas reversed the trial court's judgment and remanded the case to the trial court. We filed a Petition for Writ of Mandamus on February 24, 2025 to challenge the entry of the new trial order and are awaiting the appellate court's ruling.

  1. Subsequent Events

On October 10, 2025, we sold Villas at Bon Secour, a 200 unit multifamily property in Gulf Shores, Alabama, for $28,000. We used the proceeds from the sale to pay off the $18,767 loan on the property (See Note 11 - Mortgages and Other Notes Payable) and for general corporate purposes.

The date to which events occurring after September 30, 2025, the date of the most recent balance sheet, have been evaluated for possible adjustment to the consolidated financial statements or disclosure is November 6, 2025, which is the date on which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
