NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.        Accounting Records and Use of Estimates:
 
The accounting records are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates that we make include allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, income tax assets and liabilities, fair value of marketable securities and revenue recognition. Estimates are based on historical experience where applicable or other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. The July 31, 2012 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's latest Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending July 31, 2013.
 
The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year and future periods, projections of the proportion of income (or loss), and permanent and temporary differences. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, or as additional information is obtained. To the extent that the estimated annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in tax expense for the current quarter.
 
Prior to April 30, 2012, the Company historically calculated New York State and New York City taxes based on capital, as such, the taxes were considered franchise taxes and were not included when calculating deferred taxes. Effective April 30, 2012, management assumes future taxes for New York State and New York City will be calculated based on income. This change in management's assumption relating to operating income in future periods for state and city deferred tax calculations resulted in a charge to deferred tax expense of $389,000 for the period ended April 30, 2012.
 
2. Income Per Share of Common Stock:
 
Income per share has been computed by dividing the net income for the periods by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods, adjusted for the purchase of treasury stock. Shares used in computing income per share were 2,015,780 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012.

-7-



3.        Marketable Securities:
 
The Company categorizes marketable securities as either trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in income. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Dividends and interest income are accrued as earned. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis. The Company reviews marketable securities for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. The Company did not classify any securities as trading during the nine months ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012. The Company also did not classify any securities as trading at July 31, 2012.
 
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Certification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures in 2011. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the valuation techniques and creates the following three broad levels, with Level 1 valuation being the highest priority:

Level 1 valuation inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date (e.g., equity securities traded on the New York Stock Exchange).

Level 2 valuation inputs are from other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted market prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active).

Level 3 valuation inputs are unobservable (e.g., an entity’s own data) and should be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

In accordance with the provisions of Fair Value Measurements, the following are the Company's financial assets presented at fair value at April 30, 2013 and July 31, 2012.

4.         Financial Instruments and Credit Risk Concentrations:
 
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of marketable securities, cash and cash equivalents and receivables. Marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents are placed with multiple financial institutions and multiple instruments to minimize risk. No assurance can be made that such financial institutions and instruments will minimize all such risk.
 
The Company derives rental income from fifty tenants, of which one tenant accounted for 20.02% and another tenant accounted for 15.99% of rental income during the nine months ended April 30, 2013. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of rental income during the same period.
 
The Company has one irrevocable Letter of Credit totaling $230,000 at April 30, 2013 and July 31, 2012 provided by one tenant as a security deposit.

(a)         On August 19, 2004, the Company extended the then existing loan for an additional forty-two (42) months, with an option to convert the loan to a seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. (See Note 5(b) below). The Company in February 2008 converted the loan to a seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. The interest rate on conversion was 6.98%.
 
(b) The Company, on August 19, 2004, closed a loan with a bank for a $12,000,000 multiple draw term loan. This loan financed seventy-five (75%) percent of the cost of capital improvements for an existing lease to a tenant and capital improvements for future tenant leases at the Company’s Brooklyn, New York (Bond Street building) and Fishkill, New York properties through February 2008. The loan also financed $850,000 towards the construction of two new elevators at the Company’s Brooklyn, New York property (Bond Street building). The loan consists of: a) a permanent, first mortgage loan to refinance an existing first mortgage loan affecting the Fishkill, New York property, which matured on July 1, 2004 (the “First Permanent Loan”)(see Note 5(a)), b) a permanent subordinate mortgage loan in the amount of $1,870,000 (the “Second Permanent Loan”), and c) multiple, successively subordinate loans in the amount $8,295,274 (“Subordinate Building Loans”). As of August 19, 2004, the Company refinanced the existing mortgage on the Company’s Fishkill, New York property, which balance was $1,834,726 and took down an additional $2,820,000 for capital improvements for two tenants at the Company’s Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York. In fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company drew down additional amounts totaling $916,670, on its multiple draw term loan to finance tenant improvements and brokerage commissions for the leasing of 13,026 square feet for office use at the Company’s Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York. The Company, in February 2008, converted the loan to a seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. The interest rate on conversion was 6.98%. Since the loan has been converted to a permanent mortgage loan, the balance of the financing on this loan was for the new elevators at the Company’s Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York in the amount of $850,000 referred to above. The $850,000 was drawn down in fiscal 2010. The outstanding balance of the loan totaling $5,318,490 will become due and payable on February 18, 2015.

J. W. MAYS, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto contained in this report. In this discussion, the words “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us” refer to J.W. Mays, Inc. and subsidiaries.

Forward Looking Statements:

The following can be interpreted as including forward looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “outlook”, “intend”, “plans”, “efforts”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects” or words of similar import typically identify such statements. Various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are identified under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below. Our actual results may vary significantly from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, availability of labor, marketing success, competitive conditions and the change in economic conditions of the various markets we serve.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe the critical accounting policies in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. (See Note 1 on page 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein and Note 1 on pages 9 through 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012).

Results of Operations:

Three months Ended April 30, 2013 Compared to the Three months Ended April 30, 2012:

In the three months ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $73,037, or $.04 per share. In the comparable three months ended April 30, 2012, the Company reported net income of $140,159, or $.07 per share.

Revenues in the current three months decreased to $3,704,426 from $4,185,661 in the comparable 2012 three months primarily due to two office tenants vacating the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York, partially offset by one new office tenant at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and one new office tenant at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

Real estate operating expenses in the current three months increased to $2,154,463 from $1,918,185 in the comparable 2012 three months primarily due to increases in payroll costs, real estate taxes and utility costs.

Administrative and general expenses in the current three months decreased to $876,370 from $902,911 in the comparable 2012 three months primarily due to decreases in legal and professional costs, partially offset by increases in payroll costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense in the current three months increased to $404,479 from $395,827 in the comparable 2012 three months, primarily due to improvements to the Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and the Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

-13-



The current three months did not have a loss on disposition of property and equipment compared to $4,215 in the 2012 three month period.

Interest expense in the current three months exceeded investment income by $87,077 and by $115,364 in the comparable 2012 three months. The decrease in the excess of interest expense over investment income was due primarily to scheduled repayments of debt.

Nine months Ended April 30, 2013 Compared to the Nine months Ended April 30, 2012:

In the nine months ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $562,843, or $.28 per share. In the comparable nine months ended April 30, 2012, the Company reported net income of $826,081, or $.41 per share.

Revenues in the current nine months decreased to $12,004,447 from $12,277,435 in the comparable 2012 nine months primarily due to two office tenants vacating the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York, partially offset by one new office tenant at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and one new office tenant at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

Real estate operating expenses in the current nine months increased to $6,607,728 from $6,042,225 in the comparable 2012 nine months primarily due to increases in maintenance costs, real estate taxes, payroll costs, utility costs, leasing commissions and a bad debt expense in the amount of $240,258 from a retail tenant that vacated the Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building, partially offset by decreases in licenses and permits costs.

Administrative and general expenses in the current nine months decreased to $2,673,644 from $2,788,877 in the comparable 2012 nine months primarily due to decreases in legal and professional costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense in the current nine months increased to $1,208,221 from $1,175,961 in the comparable 2012 nine months, primarily due to improvements to the Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and the Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

The current nine months had a loss on disposition of property and equipment in the amount of $316,021, compared to $4,215 in the 2012 nine month period.

Interest expense in the current nine months exceeded investment income by $253,990 and by $387,076 in the comparable 2012 nine months. The decrease in the excess of interest expense over investment income was due primarily to scheduled repayments of debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The Company has been operating as a real estate enterprise since the discontinuance of the retail department store segment of its operations on January 3, 1989.

Management considers current working capital and borrowing capabilities adequate to cover the Company’s planned operating and capital requirements. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $2,231,478 at April 30, 2013.

A tenant who occupied 56,547 square feet of office space at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York vacated the premises in January 2013. The annual loss in rental income to the Company will be approximately $1,357,000. The Company, in April 2013, entered into a lease agreement for 41,385 square feet of the total vacated. The rental income from this lease will more than offset the rental income lost from the previous tenant on a per square foot comparison. The cost of construction and brokerage commission to be paid by the Company will be approximately $775,000, which will be financed through operating funds. The project was completed in May 2013 and rent is expected to commence in July 2013.

A tenant who occupied 22,000 square feet of office space at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York vacated the premises in January 2013. The annual loss in rental income to the Company will be approximately $546,000. The Company, in January 2013, entered into a lease agreement to replace this tenant. The rental income from this lease will more than offset the rental income lost from the previous tenant. The cost of construction and brokerage commissions to be paid by the Company was $1,108,600, which was financed through operating funds. The project was completed in April 2013 at which time rent and occupancy commenced.

-14-



In January 2013, a tenant who occupies 7,401 square feet of retail space at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York property informed the Company that it will vacate the premises. The Company is currently in litigation to evict this tenant from the premises. The annual loss in rental income to the Company will be approximately $430,000. The Company expensed unbilled receivables in the amount of $240,258 in the nine months ended April 30, 2013. The Company is utilizing brokers to actively seek tenants to occupy the space when this tenant vacates the premises.

In February 2013, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a tenant for 10,000 square feet for office space at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building. The cost of construction and brokerage commissions to the Company will be approximately $1,300,000. The Company will finance these costs through operating funds. Occupancy is anticipated to commence in late 2013 and rent is anticipated to commence in early 2014. The Company will also have to relocate part of its general offices to accommodate the tenant at a cost of approximately $400,000. Both of these projects will be financed through operating funds.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:

This section, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, other sections of this Report on Form 10-Q and other reports and verbal statements made by our representatives from time to time may contain forward-looking statements that are based on our assumptions, expectations and projections about us and the real estate industry. These include statements regarding our expectations about revenues, our liquidity, our expenses and our continued growth, among others. Such forward-looking statements by their nature involve a degree of risk and uncertainty. We caution that a variety of factors, including but not limited to the factors listed below, could cause business conditions and our results to differ materially from what is contained in forward-looking statements:

Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the formation of these forward-looking statements and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized, as well as other factors, may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by us.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to review any additional disclosures we make in proxy statements, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk:

The Company uses fixed-rate debt to finance its capital requirements. These transactions do not expose the Company to market risk related to changes in interest rates. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. At April 30, 2013, the Company had fixed-rate debt of $6,632,606.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures:

The Company’s management reviewed the Company’s internal controls and procedures and the effectiveness of these controls. As of April 30, 2013, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in its periodic SEC filings.

There was no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and therefore there were no corrective actions taken.
