Both are operated under the federally trademarked name “InnSuites”, as well as operating under the brand name “Best Western”. The Trust and its shareholders hold a diversification $1 million 6% convertible debenture in UniGen Power Inc., (“UniGen”), approximately $618,750 in UniGen’s privately-held common stock (525,000 shares), and hold warrants to make further UniGen Investments in the future.

 

Hotel Operations:

 

Our Tucson, Arizona Hotel and our Hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico are moderate service hotels. Both hotels offer swimming pools, fitness centers, business centers, and complimentary breakfast. In addition the Hotels offer complementary social areas and modest conference facilities. The Tucson hotel has “PJ’s” Pub and Café, as well.

 

The Trust is the sole general partner of RRF Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and owned a 75.98% interest in the Partnership as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, respectively. The Trust’s weighted average ownership for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 was 75.98%. As of July 31, 2023, the Partnership owned a 51.01% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Tucson, Arizona. The Trust owns a direct 21% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

 

RRF Limited Partnership, a subsidiary, manages the Hotels’ daily operations under 2 management agreements. The Trust also provides the use of the “InnSuites” trademark to the Hotels. All expenses and reimbursements between the Trust and RRF Partnership have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Trust classified the Hotels as operating assets, but these assets are available for sale. At this time, the Trust is unable to predict when, and if, either of these will be sold. Neither the Tucson Hotel nor the Albuquerque Hotel is currently listed for sale but the Trust is willing to consider offers for each Hotel. Each of the Hotels is being made available at a price that management believes is reasonable in relation to its current fair market value, earnings, profits, and replacement cost.

PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

 

The Partnership Agreement of the Partnership provides for the issuance of two classes of Limited Partnership units, Class A and Class B. Class A and Class B Partnership units are identical in all respects. On July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, 200,003 Class A Partnership units were issued and outstanding, representing 1.51% of the total Partnership units, respectively. Additionally, as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, 2,974,038 Class B Partnership units were outstanding to and owned by James Wirth, the Trust’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Wirth’s affiliates, representing 22.51% ownership in the Partnership. If all the Class A and B Partnership units were converted on July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, the limited partners in the Partnership would receive 3,174,041 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. As of July 31, 2023, and January 31, 2023, the Trust owns 10,037,476 general partner units in the Partnership, representing 75.98% of the total Partnership units.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

The Trust’s principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements is revenues from hotel room reservations and from RRF Management fees from the Tucson, Arizona and Albuquerque, New Mexico properties. The Trust’s liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to its shareholders, and to service debt, will depend upon the ability of the Trust and the Partnership’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from hotel operations, as well as to generate funds from repayment of intercompany advances and sale of assets.

 

At a future date, the Trust may receive cash from hotel and energy operations and/or full or partial sale of one or both hotels, and/or full or partial sale of its UniGen diversification investment.

 

As of July 31, 2023, the Trust had a related party Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note with an amount payable of approximately $0. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note accrues interest at 7.0% per annum and requires interest only payments. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note has a maximum borrowing capacity to $2,000,000, which is available through December 31, 2023, and automatically renews annually. This is a two-way Line of Credit, with both the Trust and an Affiliate lender having access to draw on the credit amount of up to $2,000,000 for either party.

 

As of July 31, 2023, the Trust had three Revolving lines of Credit totaling $250,000 with the Republic Bank of Arizona. The lines had a zero balance as of July 31, 2023.

 

With approximately $2,399,000 of cash, as of July 31, 2023, the availability of $2,250,000 from the combined $2,000,000 Advance to Affiliate credit facilities, and the $250,000 Revolving Lines of Credit with Republic Bank, the Trust believes that it has and will have enough cash on hand to meet all of the financial obligations as they become due for twelve months from the date of filing this 10-Q, and beyond. In addition, management is analyzing strategic options available to the Trust, including the sale of one or both Hotel properties, and/or a possible merger, or reverse merger. However, such transactions may not be available on terms that are favorable to the Trust, or at all.

 

There can be no assurance that the Trust will be successful selling properties, merging, or raising additional or replacement funds, or that these funds may be available on terms that are favorable to it. If the Trust is unable to raise additional or replacement funds, it may be required to sell or refinance certain of our assets to meet liquidity needs, which may not be on terms that are favorable.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Trust in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the Trust believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

Operating results for the six months ended July 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the Fiscal Year ending January 31, 2024. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2023.

 

The Trust has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the filing of its Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other than those events disclosed including the recovery of economic and business activity, the Company is not aware of any other significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Trust’s financial statements.

 

As the general partner of the Partnership, the Trust exercises unilateral control over the Partnership. Therefore, the financial statements of the Partnership are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810-10-25, Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC has been determined to be a variable interest entity with the Partnership as the primary beneficiary (see Note 4 – “Variable Interest Entity”). Therefore, the financial statements of Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC, are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

The financial statements of the Partnership and Tucson Hospitality Properties, LLLP are consolidated with the Partnership and the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

SEASONALITY OF THE HOTEL BUSINESS

 

The Hotels’ operations historically have been somewhat seasonal. The Tucson Arizona Hotel historically experiences the highest occupancy in the first Fiscal Quarter (the winter high season) and, to a lesser extent, the fourth Fiscal Quarter. The second Fiscal Quarter (summer low season) historically tends to be the lowest occupancy period at this Arizona Hotel. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s quarterly revenues. The Hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico historically experiences its most profitable periods during the second and third Fiscal Quarters (the summer high season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business.

 

The seasonal nature of the Trust’s business increases its vulnerability to risks such as travel disruptions, labor force shortages and cash flow issues. Further, if an adverse event such as an actual or threatened virus pandemic, terrorist attack, international conflict, data breach, regional economic downturn or poor weather should occur at either of its two hotels, the adverse impact to the Trust’s revenues and profit could be significant.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The Trust’s operations are affected by numerous factors, including the economy, inflation, virus/pandemic, competition in the hotel industry and the effect of the economy on the travel and hospitality industries. The Trust cannot predict if any of the above items will have a significant impact in the future, nor can it predict what impact, if any, the occurrence of these or other events might have on the Trust’s operations and cash flows. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to, the estimated useful lives of long-lived assets and recoverability of long-lived assets and the fair values of the long-lived assets.

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Furniture, fixtures, building and improvements and hotel properties are stated at cost, except for land, and depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated lives ranging up to 40 years for buildings and improvements, and 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment.

 

Land is an indefinite-lived asset. The Trust tests its land for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicates an impairment may have occurred, by comparing its carrying value to its implied fair value.

 

For tax purposes the Trust takes advantage of accelerated depreciation methods (MACRS) for new capital additions and improvements to its Hotels.

 

Management applies guidance ASC 360-10-35, to determine when it is required to test an asset for recoverability of its carrying value and whether, or not, an impairment exists. Under ASC 360-10-35, the Trust is required to test a long-lived asset for impairment when there is an indicator of impairment. Impairment indicators may include, but are not limited to, a drop in the performance of a long-lived asset, a decline in the hospitality industry or a decline in the economy. If an indicator of potential impairment is present, then an assessment is performed of whether the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows over its estimated remaining life.

 

If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows over the asset’s estimated remaining life are greater than the asset’s carrying value, no impairment is recognized; however, if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, then the Trust would recognize an impairment expense to the extent the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, if any. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. Long-lived assets evaluated for impairment are analyzed on a property-specific basis independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. Evaluation of future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including certain economic conditions, and committed future bookings. Management has determined that no further impairment is required of long-lived assets for the fiscal period ended July 31, 2023.

 

CASH

 

The Trust believes it places its cash only with high credit quality financial institutions, although these balances periodically exceed federally insured limits.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Hotel and Operations

 

Revenues are primarily derived from the sources below and are recognized as services are rendered and when collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received in advance of revenue recognition are considered deferred liabilities and are generally not significant.

 

11
 

 

Revenues primarily consist of room rentals, food and beverage sales, management and trademark fees and other miscellaneous revenues from our properties. Revenues are recorded when rooms are occupied and when food and beverage sales are delivered. Management and trademark fees include a monthly accounting fee and a percentage of hotel room revenues for managing the daily operations of the Hotels.

 

Each room night consumed by a guest with a cancellable reservation represents a contract whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night at an agreed upon price. For cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue as each performance obligation (i.e., each room night) is met. Such contract is renewed if the guest continues their stay. For room nights consumed by a guest with a non-cancellable reservation, the entire reservation period represents the contract term whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night or nights at an agreed upon price. For non-cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue over the term of the performance period (i.e., the reservation period) as room nights are consumed. For these reservations, the room rate is typically fixed over the reservation period. The Trust uses an output method based on performance completed to date (i.e., room nights consumed) to determine the amount of revenue it recognizes on a daily basis if the length of a non-cancellable reservation exceeds one night since consumption of room nights indicates when services are transferred to the guest. In certain instances, variable consideration may exist with respect to the transaction price, such as discounts, coupons and price concessions made upon guest checkout.

 

In evaluating its performance obligation, the Trust bundles the obligation to provide the guest the room itself with other obligations (such as free Wi-Fi, complimentary breakfast, and high speed internet), as the other obligations are not distinct and separable because the guest cannot benefit from the additional amenities without the consumed room night. The Trust’s obligation to provide the additional items or services is not separately identifiable from the fundamental contractual obligation (i.e., providing the room and its contents). The Trust has no performance obligations once a guest’s stay is complete.

 

We are required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. We have a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. We do not retain these taxes and fees and, therefore, they are not included in revenues. We record a liability when the amounts are collected and relieve the liability when payments are made to the applicable taxing authority or other appropriate governmental agency.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

 

Accounts receivable are derived from guest stays and other reservations at the Hotels. Accounts receivable are carried at original amounts billed less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding amounts on a quarterly basis. Management generally records an allowance for doubtful accounts for 50% of balances over 90 days due and 100% of balances over 120 days due. Accounts receivable are written off when collection efforts have been exhausted and they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries, if any, of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Trust does not charge interest on accounts receivable balances and these receivables are unsecured. There is $0 in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023.

 

12
 

 

LEASE ACCOUNTING

 

The Trust determines, at the inception of a contract, if the arrangement is a lease and whether it meets the classification criteria for a finance or operating lease. Right of Use (ROU), assets represent the Trust’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Trust’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets also include any advance lease payments and exclude lease incentives. As most of the Trust’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Trust uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Finance lease agreements generally include an interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating fixed lease expense and finance lease depreciation expense are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term (see Note 14).

 

TRUSTEE STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Trust has an employee equity incentive plan, which is described more fully in Note 15 - “Share-Based Payments.” The three independent members of the Board of Trustees each earn 9,000 IHT fully paid restricted Shares per year. All shares vest over one year from date of grant. The Trust has paid the annual fees due to its Trustees by issuing Shares of Beneficial Interest out of its authorized but unissued Shares. Upon issuance, the Trust recognizes the shares as outstanding. The Trust recognizes expense related to the issuance based on the fair value of the shares upon the date of the restricted share grant and amortizes the expense equally over the period during which the shares vest to the Trustees. From time to time, the Trustees and key employees receive one-time fully paid restricted share grants, as well.

 

TREASURY STOCK

 

Treasury stock is carried at cost, including any brokerage commissions paid to repurchase the shares. Any shares issued from treasury stock are removed at cost, with the difference between cost and fair value at the time of issuance recorded against Shares of Beneficial Interest. InnSuites Hospitality Trust continues its Company Stock Buyback Plan allowed within the NYSE American limitations.

 

NET INCOME PER SHARE

 

Basic and diluted net income per Share of Beneficial Interest is computed based on the weighted-average number of Shares of Beneficial Interest and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities are limited to the Class A and Class B units of the Partnership, which are convertible into 3,174,041 Shares of the Beneficial Interest, as discussed in Note 1.

 

13
 

 

For the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, there were Class A and Class B Partnership units outstanding, which are convertible into Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion at the beginning of each period, the aggregate weighted-average of these Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,174,041 in addition to the basic shares outstanding for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These Shares of Beneficial Interest issuable upon conversion of the Class A and Class B Partnership units were anti-dilutive during the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 and are excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for those periods.

 

ADVERTISING COSTS

 

Amounts incurred for advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for operations totaled approximately $83,000 and $62,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively, and $165,000 and $171,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Trust to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Management’s assessment of the Trust’s credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is low as cash and cash equivalents are held in financial institutions believed to be credit worthy. The Trust limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with various major financial institutions and invests only in short-term obligations.

 

While the Trust is exposed to credit losses due to the non-performance of its counterparties, the Trust considers the risk of this remote. The Trust estimates its maximum credit risk for accounts receivable at the amount recorded on the balance sheet.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

For disclosure purposes, fair value is determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy levels are as follows:

 

  Level 1 – Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured.
     
  Level 2 – Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and / or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are level 2 valuation techniques.
     
  Level 3 – Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect a company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

14
 

 

The Trust has assets that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including stock and warrants in a 3rd party private company on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Due to their short maturities, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value. The fair value of mortgage notes payable, notes payable to banks and notes and advances payable to related parties is estimated by using the current rates which would be available for similar loans having the same remaining maturities and are based on level 3 inputs.

 

CONVERTIBLE NOTE RECEIVABLE, COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS IN UNIGEN POWER, INC.

 

On December 16, 2019 the Trust entered into a Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement with UniGen Power Inc. (“UniGen”).

 

The Trust purchased secured convertible debentures (“Debentures”) in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (the “Loan Amount”) at an annual interest rate of 6% (approximately $15,000 per quarter). The Debentures are convertible into 1,000,000 Class A shares of UniGen Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of $1.00 per share.

 

UniGen issued the Trust common stock purchase warrants (the “Debenture Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Debenture Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

UniGen also issued the Trust additional common stock purchase warrants (“Additional Warrants”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of UniGen Class A Common Stock. The Additional Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $2.25 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

IHT may fund at IHT’s sole discretion a $500,000 line of credit at the option of IHT convertible into 500,000 shares of UniGen stock at $1 per share.

 

The total of all stock ownership upon conversion of the note receivable is 1 million shares and if all stock warrants available are exercised, these could total approximately 3 million UniGen shares, which amounts to approximately 25% of fully diluted UniGen equity.

 

On the Trust’s balance sheet, the investment of the $1,000,000 consists of approximately $700,000 in note receivables and approximately $300,000 as the fair value of the warrant issued with the Trust’s investment in UniGen. The value of the premium related to the fair value of the warrants will accrete over the life of the debentures.

 

The value of the warrants issued with the note receivable was based on Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following inputs:

 

Debenture Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $1.00 
Time to maturity (years)   2.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

Additional Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $2.25 
Time to maturity (years)   3.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

15
 

 

If all notes are converted and all available but not outstanding warrants exercised, IHT could hold up to approximately 25% of UniGen fully diluted equity ownership. Subsequent to January 31, 2023, no activity has occurred with this line of credit and thus no draws have been taken.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $60,000 of interest income to exercise 60,000 warrants for 60,000 shares of common stock in UniGen. Additionally, the Trust exercised 161,250 warrants for a total of $255,000 for 161,250 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

During the Second Fiscal Quarter (May 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023), three months ended July 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $15,000 of interest income to exercise 15,000 warrants for 15,000 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

As of July 31, 2023, IHT held 525,000 common shares of UniGen, purchased at a cost of $618,750. Management believes recording the investment at cost approximates fair value since there have been no significant changes in the operations of UniGen and UniGen’s projects are still in the R&D phase.

 

UniGen Power Inc. management reports the following progress of the InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) efficient clean energy innovation diversification investment:

 

1. Despite travel and supply chain disruptions including “reshoring” of a portion of UniGen parts, UniGen management continues to make progress on completing the UPI 1000TA first prototype to be assembled within the next year. In early 2023, with prototype engineering complete, UniGen paused engineering to raise additional capital with strong initial interest.

 

2. Due to global travel and economic events, an increasingly unreliable American power grid, increasing demand for electric vehicles, inflation, and supply chain pressures, the UniGen marketing team estimates product’s market has grown, and has increased the MSP planned power plant price. The initial order for thirty units has been reaffirmed.

 

3. UniGen is currently seeking an investor for its next round of financing, to complete the prototype to get assembled, and then ready for testing.

 

James Wirth (President) and Marc Berg (Executive Vice President) both lack significant control. They have two of the seven Board of Directors seats or 28% and were elected in December 2019 to serve on the board of UNIGEN to closely monitor and assist in the success of this potentially power industry disruptive relatively clean energy generation innovation.

 

The Trust has valued UniGen investment as a level 3 fair value measurement, for the following reasons: The investment does not qualify for level 1 since there are no identical actively traded instruments or level 2 identical or similar unobservable markets.

 

3. OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN ALBQUERQUE AND TUCSON SUBSIDIARIES

 

The Trust has sold non-controlling interests in certain subsidiaries, including Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC (the “Albuquerque entity”) and Tucson Hospitality Properties, LLLP (the “Tucson entity, which sales are described in detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on May 1, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commissions. Generally, interests have sold for $10,000 per unit with a two-unit minimum subscription. The Trust maintains at least 50.1% of the units in one of the entities and intends to maintain this minimum ownership percentage. Generally, the units in the each of the entities are allocated to three classes with differing cumulative discretionary priority distribution rights through a certain time period. Class A units are owned by unrelated third parties and have priority for distributions. Class B units are owned by the Trust and have second priority for distributions. Class C units are owned by Rare Earth or other affiliates of Mr. Wirth and have the lowest priority for distributions. Priority distributions of $700 per unit per year are cumulative until a certain date; however, after that date, generally Class A unit holders continue to hold a preference on distributions over Class B and Class C unit holders. The Trust does not accrue for these distributions as the preference periods have expired.

 

On February 15, 2017, the Trust and Partnership entered into a restructuring agreement with Rare Earth Financial, LLC (“REF”) to allow for the sale of non-controlling partnership units in Albuquerque Suite Hospitality LLC (“Albuquerque”) for $10,000 per unit, which operates the Best Western InnSuites Albuquerque Hotel and Suites Airport hotel property, a 112 unit hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico (the “Property”). This restructuring is part of the Trust’s Equity Enhancement Plan to comply with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. For the three months ending April 30, 2023 and 2022, the Trust sold 0 units for $10,000 per unit, respectively.

16
 

 

On October 1, 2013, the Partnership entered into an updated restructured limited partnership agreement with Rare Earth to allow for the sale of additional interest units in the Tucson entity for $10,000 per unit. Under the agreement, Rare Earth agreed to either purchase or bring in other investors to purchase up to 160 (and potentially up to 200 if the overallotment is exercised) units. Under the terms of the updated restructuring agreement, the Partnership agreed to hold at least 50.1% of the outstanding limited partnership units in the Tucson entity, on a post-transaction basis, and intends to maintain this minimum ownership percentage through the purchase of units under this offering. The Board of Trustees approved this restructuring on September 14, 2013. The limited partnership interests in the Tucson entity are allocated to three classes with differing cumulative discretionary priority distribution rights through June 30, 2017. Class A units are owned by unrelated third parties and have priority for distributions. Class B units are owned by the Partnership and have second priority for distributions. Class C units are owned by Rare Earth or other affiliates of Mr. Wirth and have the lowest priority for distributions from the Tucson entity. Priority distributions of $700 per unit per year are cumulative until June 30, 2016; however, after June 30, 2016 Class A unit holders continue to hold a preference on distributions over Class B and Class C unit holders. The Trust does not accrue for these distributions as the preference periods have expired.

 

For the Albuquerque entity, three Class A units were sold back to the Trust during the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023 for $30,000. As of April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2023, respectively, the Trust held a 21.50% ownership interest, or 129 Class B units, in the Albuquerque entity, Mr. Wirth and his affiliates held a 0.17% interest, or 1 Class C units, and other parties held a 78.33% interest, or 470 Class A units.

4. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

 

Management evaluates the Trust’s explicit and implicit variable interests to determine if they have any interests in variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Variable interests are contractual, ownership, or other pecuniary interests in an entity whose value changes with changes in the fair value of the entity’s net assets, exclusive of variable interests. Explicit variable interests are those which directly absorb the variability of a VIE and can include contractual interests such as loans or guarantees as well as equity investments. An implicit variable interest acts the same as an explicit variable interest except it involves the absorbing of variability indirectly, such as through related party arrangements or implicit guarantees. The analysis includes consideration of the design of the entity, its organizational structure, including decision making ability over the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. GAAP requires a reporting entity to consolidate a VIE when the reporting entity has a variable interest, or combination of variable interest, that provides it with a controlling financial interest in the VIE. The entity that consolidates a VIE is referred to as the primary beneficiary of that VIE.

 

The Partnership has determined that the Albuquerque entity is a variable interest entity with the Partnership as the primary beneficiary with the ability to exercise control, as determined under the guidance of ASC Topic 810-10-25. In its determination, management considered the following qualitative and quantitative factors:

 

a) The Partnership, Trust, and their related parties, which share common ownership and management, have guaranteed material financial obligations of the Albuquerque hotel, including.

 

b) The Partnership, Trust and their related parties have maintained, as a group, a controlling ownership interest in the Albuquerque hotel, with the largest ownership belonging to the Trust.

 

c) The Partnership, Trust and their related parties have maintained control over the decisions which most impact the financial performance of the Albuquerque hotel, including providing the personnel to operate the property daily.

 

During the six months ended July 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023, neither the Trust nor the Partnership have provided any implicit or explicit financial support for which they were not previously contracted. Both the Partnership and the Trust provided mortgage loan guarantees which allow our properties to obtain new financing as needed, including the refinance of the Tucson Hotel on March 29, 2022.

Restricted Cash:

 

The Trust is obligated under a loan agreement relating to the Tucson Oracle property to deposit 4% of the individual hotel’s room revenue into an escrow account to be used for capital expenditures. The escrow funds applicable to the Tucson Oracle property for which a mortgage lender escrow exists is reported on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” Since a $0 cash balance existed in Restricted Cash as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, Restricted Cash line was omitted on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Membership Agreements:

 

The Tucson and Albuquerque Hotels have entered into membership agreements with Best Western International, Inc. (“Best Western”) for both hotel properties. In exchange for use of the Best Western name, trademark and reservation system, all Hotels pay fees to Best Western based on reservations received through the use of the Best Western reservation system and the number of available suites at the Hotels. The agreements with Best Western have no specific expiration terms and may be cancelled annually by either party. Best Western requires that the hotels meet certain requirements for room quality.

Under these arrangements, fees paid for membership fees and reservations were approximately $97,000 and $93,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These costs include fees for the Albuquerque and Tucson hotels in 2022. These fees are included in room operating expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for Albuquerque and Tucson.

 

20
 

 

Litigation:

 

The Trust is involved from time to time in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

 

The nature of the operations of the Hotels exposes them to risks of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be determined and is covered by insurance, management does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Trust.

 

Indemnification:

 

The Trust has entered into indemnification agreements with all our executive officers and Trustees. The agreements provide for indemnification against all liabilities and expenses reasonably incurred by an officer or Trustee in connection with the defense or disposition of any suit or other proceeding, in which he or she may be involved or with which he or she may be threatened, while in office or thereafter, because of his or her position at the Trust. There is no indemnification for any matter as to which an officer or Trustee is adjudicated to have acted in bad faith, with willful misconduct or reckless disregard of his or her duties, with gross negligence, or not in good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the Trust’s best interests. These agreements require the Trust, among other things, to indemnify the Trustee or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as our Trustee or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by us. The Trust may advance payments in connection with indemnification under the agreements. The level of indemnification is to the full extent of the net equity based on appraised and/or market value of the Trust. Historically, the Trust has not incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

16. NOTES RECEIVEABLE

 

Sale of IBC Hospitality Technologies; IBC Hotels LLC (IBC)

 

On August 15, 2018 InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) entered into a final sale agreement of its technology subsidiary, IBC Hotels LLC (IBC), to an unrelated third-party buyer (Buyer). As a part of the amended sale agreement, the Trust received a secured promissory note adjusted to the principal amount of $1,925,000 with interest to be accrued at 3.75% per annum, which is recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in continuing operations.

 

  No interest accrued through May 2023, and no payments on the note receivable including principal and interest based on the extended time period are due through May 2023.
     
  Note is secured by (1) pledge of the Buyer’s interest in IBC, and (2) a security interest in all assets of IBC, provided IHT shall agree to subordinate such equity interest to commercially reasonable debt financing upon request.
     
  If IBC closes an equity transaction with net proceeds to IBC in excess of $2,500,000, IBC/Buyer shall pay or pre-pay to IHT an amount equal to (a) 50% of the net proceeds received by IBC and (b) 50% of the sum of the unpaid balance of the note and accrued interest accrued but unpaid interest thereon, as the date of receipt of the net proceeds by IBC.
     
  The note matures on June 1, 2024. IHT is in discussions for a further extension/modification.
     
  Future payments on this note are shown in the table below.

 

SCHEDULE OF FUTURE PAYMENTS OF DEBT

 

FISCAL YEAR    
2024   1,925,000 
Total  $1,925,000 

 

  Management’s evaluation of the current financial position of the Buyer, based on unaudited financial statements provided.
     
  Management’s best, conservative valuation of IBC’s assets, and their marketability, in the case of a default by the Buyer.
     
  The current and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on the travel and hospitality industry, in which IBC’s reservation and booking technology operates.

 

As of July 31, 2023, management evaluated the carrying value of the note determined no further impairment is needed at this time. This is detailed further with ongoing discussions of an extension, which allows time for IBC to benefit from the current rebound in the travel, hospitality services, and hotel industries currently being experienced.

 

IHT has no managerial control nor does IHT have the ability to direct the operations or capital requirements of IBC as of August 1, 2018. IHT has no rights to any benefits or losses from IBC as of August 1, 2018.

 

17. INCOME TAXES

 

The Trust is taxed as a C-Corporation. The Trust’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Trust has from time to time received various IRS and state tax jurisdiction notices which the Trust is in the process of responding to in which management believes the notices are without merit and expect full remediation of all tax notices. The Trust and subsidiaries have deferred tax assets of $4.3 million which includes cumulative net operating loss carryforwards of $1.4 million and syndications of $2.9 million, and deferred tax liability associated with book/tax differences of $1.8 million as of January 31, 2023. We have evaluated the net deferred tax asset and determined that it is more likely than not we will receive full benefit from the net operating loss carryforwards. Therefore, we have determined a valuation allowance of approximately $2.6 million.

 

24
 

 

18. COVID-19 DISCLOSURE

 

COVID-19 had a material detrimental impact on our business, financial results and liquidity, in Fiscal Year 2021, ended January 31, 2021. Its consequences had dramatically reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms, in Fiscal Year 2021. We believe that lodging demand and revenue level have now significantly recovered.

 

In Fiscal Year 2022, ended January 31, 2022, and Fiscal Year 2023, starting February 1, 2022 and ending January 31, 2023, InnSuites and the travel industry showed a significant rebound. The start of Fiscal Year 2024, starting February 1, 2023 and ending January 31, 2024, has shown no material ill effects from the pandemic whatsoever.

 

COVID-19 and its consequences previously reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms, which previously had an adverse impact our business, operations, and financial results. We believe that lodging demand and revenue level has now rebounded to near full recovery. The extent to which COVID-19 currently impacts our business, operations, and financial results, including the duration and magnitude of such effects, is diminished. The negative impact COVID-19 had on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on consumer discretionary spending has been reduced significantly, and its short and longer-term impact on the demand for travel, transient and group business, and levels of consumer confidence is no longer considered a major factor for Fiscal Year 2024, (February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2024).

 

19. OCCUPANCY TAX

 

No occupancy tax assessments have transpired since September 2020. Management has assessed the materiality of the discrepancy on prior reported periods and has concluded it is qualitatively immaterial to the readers of our Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

20. EMPLOYEE RETENTION TAX CREDIT

 

The Trust is participating in Economic Relief through a Credit allowed for Entities that suffered financial hardship during the Covid-19 Pandemic, under the CARES (The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act (2020), and The Consolidated Appropriations Act (2021). Both provided fast and direct economic assistance for American workers, families, small businesses, and industries, by the U.S. Department of the Treasury along with Congress. This Credit was available for all Entities impacted by the Virus and who paid Employment Taxes, while trying to remain solvent and viable. It is a fully refundable tax credit for Eligible Employers that paid employees to carry on a trade or business that was partially or fully suspended during any calendar year 2020; or that experienced significant decline in gross receipts during any calendar quarter in 2020, due to COVID-19.

 

As a result of both legislative acts, the Trust is expected to be receiving a net of approximately $2.7 million in a combination of Employment Tax Refunds and Credits, for the two calendar years 2020, and 2021, respectively. As a result, the Trust conservatively placed an amount equal to approximately 12% per Fiscal Quarter of this total as a Tax Credit Receivable and Tax Refund on the Balance Sheet and Income statement, respectively, for the year ended January 31, 2023. The Trust has further conservatively recognized an additional 12% approximately of the total anticipated Tax Credit receivable for the Quarter ended July 31, 2023. As of July 31, 2023, IHT has received approximately $1.9 million, and is expected to receive an additional $0.8 million.

 

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Trust intends to maintain its current conservative dividend policy. The Trust currently is, and has, been paying two semi-annual dividends each Fiscal Year totaling $0.02 per share per Fiscal Year. In the Fiscal Years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, the Trust paid dividends of $0.01 per share per share in each of the second and the fourth quarters. The Trust has paid dividends each Fiscal Year since its inception in 1971. The Trust paid the scheduled semi-annual $0.01 dividend payable on July 29, 2022, as well as February 1, 2023, and is once again anticipated for July 31, 2023.

 

The Trust’s Management received communication from the NYSE-American on August 29, 2022, indicating IHT is fully compliant with all of the Continued Listing Standards Equity Requirements set forth in Part 10 of the NYSE American Company Guide, of the NYSE-American.

 

Subsequent to the Fiscal Second Quarter ended July 31, 2023, the Trust repurchased 76,165 Shares of Beneficial Interest on the open market for a total cash repurchase price of approximately $183,533.

 

Hotel Operation results of the Albuquerque Hotel and the Tucson Hotel both achieved record results for the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023. Continued record results are expected for the two hotels, during Fiscal Year 2024, ending January 31, 2024. IHT reported a strong annual improvement of results in Fiscal Year 2023, (February 1, 2022, to January 31, 2023), with Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interests doubling, increasing by 106%, to $523,171 as compared to $254,144. Earnings Per Share based on this Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interest amount was $0.06, also more than doubling, up $0.03 from the prior year of $0.03. Total Revenues increased to approximately $7.5 million, which is an approximate increase of 11% from the same prior Fiscal Year total of $6.7 million. Consolidated Net Income before non-cash depreciation expense was $1,439,437 for the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023. IHT hotel operations have contributed to a solid start in the 2024 Fiscal First Half (February 1, 2023, through July 31, 2023), with both the Tucson Hotel and Albuquerque Hotel achieving record results during current Fiscal Year. These are all positive signs for InnSuites, as progress continues heading in the right direction as the Travel Industry, and InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) specifically, continue to rebound and thrive.

OVERVIEW

 

We are engaged in the ownership and operation of hotel properties. On July 31, 2023, the Trust had two moderate-service hotels, one in Tucson, Arizona and one in Albuquerque, New Mexico with 270 hotel suites. Both of our Trust Hotels are branded through membership agreements with Best Western, and both are also trademarked as InnSuites Hotels and Suites. We are also involved in various operations incidental to the operation of hotels, such as the operation of a limited service restaurant, and bar, as well as meeting/banquet room rentals.

 

At July 31, 2023, we owned a direct 21.50% interest in the Albuquerque, New Mexico Hotel, and, together with the Partnership, owned an indirect 51.01% interest in the Tucson, Arizona Hotel.

 

Our operations consist of one reportable segment – Hotel Ownership Operations & Hotel Management Services. Hotel Operations derives its revenue from the operation of the Trust’s two hotel properties with an aggregate of 270 suites in Arizona and New Mexico. Hotel management services, provides management services for the Trust’s two Hotels. As part of our management services, we also provide trademark and licensing services.

 

Our results are significantly affected by the overall economy and travel, occupancy and room rates at the Hotels, our ability to manage costs, changes in room rates, and changes in the number of available suites caused by the Trust’s disposition activities. Results are also significantly impacted by overall economic conditions and conditions in the hotel and travel industries. Although hotel operations have now bounced back, virus-related travel slowdown in the Fiscal Year 2021, (February 1, 2020 to January 31, 2021), negatively impacted hotel room demand and pricing, which reduced our profit margins. Increases in supply or decline in demand could result in increased competition, which could have an adverse effect on the rates and occupancy revenue of the Hotels in their respective markets.

 

28
 

 

Over time, we expect our UniGen diversification efficient clean energy generation investment to mature, grow, and provide a substantial source of income in the foreseeable future.

 

We expect the current Fiscal Year 2024 to continue strong for the travel industry, with a continued increase of room rates, as well as continuation of current cost control all leading to improved profitability of our hotels. We believe that we have positioned the Hotels to remain competitive through our now fully completed Tucson and Albuquerque hotel refurbishments, by offering fully refurbished studios and two-room suites at each location, and by maintaining complementary guest items, including complimentary breakfast and free Internet access.

 

Our strategic plan is to continue to obtain the full benefit of our real estate equity, by ultimately obtaining full market value for our two Hotels at market value which is believed by management to be substantially higher than lower book values, over the next 12-36 months. In addition, the Trust is seeking a larger private reverse merger partner that may benefit from a merger that would afford that partner access to our listing on the NYSE AMERICAN.

 

In the process of reviewing merger opportunities, the Trust identified in December 2019, and invested $1 million in UniGen Power, Inc. (“UniGen”), an innovative efficient clean energy power generation company. The Trust has invested $1 million in debentures convertible into 1 million shares of UniGen Power Inc., the Trust has invested in 525,000 UniGen shares, and in addition has acquired warrants to purchase approximately an additional 2 million UniGen shares over the next approximately three years, which could result up to 25% ownership in UniGen. For more information on our strategic plan, including information on our progress in disposing of our hotel properties and expanding energy diversification, see “Future Positioning” in this Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

HOTEL OPERATIONS

 

Our expenses consist primarily of labor, property taxes, insurance, corporate overhead, interest on mortgage debt, professional fees, depreciation of the Hotels and hotel operating expenses. Hotel operating expenses consist primarily of payroll, guest and maintenance supplies, marketing, and utilities expenses. Under the terms of its Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is required to reimburse us for all such expenses. Accordingly, management believes that a review of the historical performance of the operations of the Hotels, particularly with respect to occupancy, which is calculated as rooms sold divided by total rooms available, average daily rate (“ADR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by number of rooms sold, and revenue per available room (“REVPAR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by number of rooms available, is appropriate for understanding revenue from the Hotels.

In the prior fiscal years ended January 31, 2023, 2022 and 2020, we made significant improvements to our Albuquerque, New Mexico and Tucson, Arizona hotels. During the six months ended July 31, 2023, we had an increase in total revenue resulting from the recovery of demand after the virus related travel restrictions imposed due to COVID-19, and benefitting from prior refurbishments.

 

Total Consolidated Net Income for the six months ended July 31, 2023 was approximately $532,000 compared to approximately $629,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022, a decrease of approximately $97,000.

During Fiscal Year 2024, we expect modest additional improvements in occupancy, rates, and food and beverage revenues.

 

EXPENSES:

 

Total expenses net of interest expense was approximately $4.06 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023 reflecting an increase of approximately $0.38 million, or 10%, compared to total expenses net of interest expense of approximately $3.68 million for the six months ended July 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses related to increased occupancy and revenues at the hotel properties.

 

Room expenses consisting of salaries and related employment taxes for property management, front office, housekeeping personnel, reservation fees and room supplies were approximately $1.26 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023 compared to approximately $1.11 million in the prior year six month period for an increase of approximately $148,000, or 13%. Room expenses increased as occupancy at the hotels increased, and increased expenses were incurred with the increased occupancy.

 

Food and beverage expenses included food and beverage costs, personnel and miscellaneous costs to provide banquet events. For the six months ended July 31, 2023, food and beverage expenses decreased approximately $13,000, or 12%, to approximately $93,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023, compared to approximately $106,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022. The decrease in cost is due to the careful management of food and beverage purchasing costs.

 

General and administrative expenses include overhead charges for management, accounting, shareholder and legal services. General and administrative expenses of approximately $1.22 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023, increased approximately $101,000 from approximately $1.12 million for the six months ended July 31, 2022 primarily due to higher charges in corporate staffing in support of the hotels and property sales efforts.

 

Sales and marketing expense decreased approximately $49,000, or 20%, to approximately $198,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 from approximately $247,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022.

Hospitality expense increased by approximately $69,000, or 43%, from $162,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022 to approximately $232,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to COVID-19 regulations minimizing and reducing food service availability, restricting our complimentary breakfast and social hour offerings.

 

Utility expenses decreased approximately $11,000, or 5%, to approximately $210,000 reported for the six months ended July 31, 2023 compared with approximately $221,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Overview – Hotel Operations & Corporate Overhead

 

Two principal sources of cash to meet our cash requirements, include monthly management fees from our two hotels and distributions of our share of the Partnership’s cash flow of the Tucson hotel and quarterly distributions from the Albuquerque, New Mexico properties, intercompany loan repayments, and potential future real estate hotel sales is another future source of cash. The Partnership’s principal source of revenue is hotel operations for the hotel property it owns in Tucson, Arizona and Albuquerque, New Mexico. Our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, will depend upon our ability, and the Partnership’s ability, to generate sufficient cash flow from hotel operations, from management fees, and from the potential sale and/or refinance of the hotel, and to service our debt and the source of repayment of intercompany loan from Tucson.

 

Hotel operations were positively affected by improved occupancy and substantially increased room rates at the Hotels in the Fiscal Year 2023, as the travel industry continued to rebound.

 

With approximately $2.4 million of cash as of July 31, 2023 and the availability of three $250,000 bank lines of credit, and $2,000,000 available from the $2,000,000 related party Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note, and the availability of Advances to Affiliate credit facilities and available Bank line of Credit, we believe that we will have enough cash on hand to meet all of our financial obligations as they become due for at least the next twelve months from the issuance date of the these consolidated financial statements. Our management is analyzing other strategic options available to us, including raising additional funds, asset sales, and benefitting from clean energy investment cash flow as our diversification investment matures.

 

IHT and InnDependent Boutique Collections Hotels (IBC), previously agreed and are currently in discussions to extend the payment schedule on IBC’s note receivable to allow IBC to fully use its revenues to build and rebuild market share as the hotel industry rebounds. Management believes that with additional extension repayment terms, that the future collectability of the current carrying value of the note is probable and not subject to impairment, or allowance for the Quarter ended July 31, 2023.

 

There can be no assurance that we will be successful in refinancing debt or raising additional or replacement funds, or that these funds may be available on terms that are favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional or replacement funds, we may be required to sell certain of our assets to meet our liquidity needs, which may not be on terms that are favorable.

 

We anticipate limited additional new-build hotel supply in our markets during the remaining Fiscal Year 2024, and accordingly we anticipate a continued rebound of revenues and operating margins. We expect challenges for the remaining Fiscal Year to be the economy, inflation, cost control, travel, leisure, corporate, group, and government business continued rebound to grow occupancy and further increase room rates while maintaining and/or building market share.

 

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled approximately $1,439,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2023 as compared to net cash provided of approximately $129,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2022. Consolidated net income was approximately $532,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 as compared to consolidated net income for the six months ended July 31, 2022 of approximately $629,000. Explanation of the differences between these fiscal years are explained above in the results of operations of the Trust.

 

Changes in the adjustments to reconcile net income for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, consist primarily of operating lease costs, stock-based compensation, hotel property depreciation, and changes in assets and liabilities. Hotel property depreciation was approximately $335,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2023 compared to approximately $344,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2022, a decrease of $9,000 as the Trust recognized less depreciation as capitalized fixed assets became fully depreciated.

 

Changes in assets and liabilities for accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled approximately ($574,000) and ($175,000) for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This significant decrease in changes in assets and liabilities for the six months ended July 31, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 31, 2022 was due to the decrease in operating liabilities related to ongoing operations.

 

33
 

 

Net cash used in investing activities totaled approximately $277,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $242,000 for the six months ended Jul 31, 2022. The increase in net cash used in activities during the six months ended July 31, 2023 was due primarily due to improvements and additions to the hotel properties.

 

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities totaled approximately ($874,000) and $2,112,000, respectively, for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022. The increase of approximately $2,986,000 was primarily due to the refinance of the Tucson Oracle mortgage, offset by repayments to Rare Earth on the Note Payable – Related Party.

 

Principal payments on mortgage notes payable for continuing operations was approximately $111,000 and $81,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Net payments and borrowings on other notes payable was approximately ($101,000) and approximately ($15,000) during the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Payments on notes payables–related party, netted against borrowings on note payable–related party, was approximately $0 and ($977,000) of cash used in financing activities during the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

During the six months ended July 31, 2023, our repurchase of treasury stock was approximately $226,000 compared with approximately $161,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022.

 

During the six months ended July 31, 2023, our distributions to non-controlling interest holders was approximately $346,000 compared with approximately $434,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2022.

 

We continue to contribute to a Capital Expenditures Fund (the “Fund”) an amount equal to 4% of our Tucson InnSuites Hotel revenues from operation of the Hotel. The Fund is restricted by the mortgage lender for our Tucson property. As of July 31, 2023, and 2022, there were no monies held in these accounts reported on our unaudited condensed consolidated Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” The Fund is intended to be used for capital improvements to the Hotels and refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment. During the six months ended July 31, 2023and 2022, the Hotel spent approximately $247,000 and $117,000 respectively, for capital expenditures. The capital expenditures were primarily associated with the property improvements at the Hotel, as required to meet continuing Best Western standards. We consider most of these improvements to be revenue producing. Therefore, these amounts are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. For the remaining Fiscal Year 2024 capital expenditures, we plan on spending less on capital improvements as we have completed our property improvements at our Tucson, Arizona hotel and our Albuquerque hotel, both of which required significant amounts of capital improvements in prior periods. Repairs and maintenance were charged to expense as incurred and approximated $211,000 and $192,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

We have minimum debt payments, net of debt discounts, of approximately $581,000 and approximately $234,000 due during Fiscal Years 2024 and 2025, respectively. Minimum debt payments due during Fiscal Year 2024 and 2025 include approximately $111,000 and $234,000 of mortgage notes payable, and approximately $470,000 and $0 of other notes payable, which are secured promissory notes outstanding to unrelated third parties arising from the Shares of Beneficial Interest and Partnership unit repurchases, respectively.

 

We may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments. Any debt incurred or issued by us may be secured or unsecured, long-term, medium-term, or short-term, bear interest at a fixed or variable rate and be subject to such other terms as we consider prudent.

 

COMPETITION IN THE HOTEL INDUSTRY

 

The hotel industry is competitive. The hotel industry has been recovering and growing since April, 2021. While none of the Hotels’ competitors dominate any of their geographic markets, some of those competitors may have greater marketing and financial resources than the Trust.

 

34
 

 

Certain additional hotel property refurbishments have been completed by competitors in both Hotels’ markets, and additional hotel property developments may be built in the future. Such hotel developments could have an adverse effect on the revenue of our Hotels in their respective markets.

 

The Trust’s hotel investments are located in Arizona and New Mexico. With the completed renovations at our Tucson, Arizona and Albuquerque, New Mexico hotel properties, those hotels are expected to see incremental demand during the next 18 months, as supply had been steady in those respective markets, and is expected to increase. Either an increase in supply or a decline in demand could result in increased competition, which could have an adverse effect on occupancy, room rates and revenues of our Hotels in their respective markets. The hotels experienced a decrease in demand due to the impact of virus-related restrictions and reduction of travel after February 1, 2021 to January 31, 2023. The recovery is benefitting our hotels in the First Two Fiscal Quarters of 2024, February 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023. This improvement and continued upward trend is expected to continue for the balance of Fiscal Year 2024, through January 31, 2024, as the Travel Industry continues its recovery.

 

The Trust may not invest further in hotels, but rather diversify into investments such as the investment made by the Trust in December 2019 in the innovative UniGen Power, Inc. (UniGen), efficient clean energy power generation company. The Trust may continue to seek further diversification through a merger or reverse merger with a larger non-public entity seeking an NYSE-American public stock market listing.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

As a partial offset to the current hotel industry fluctuation of demand, the Trust looks to benefit from, and expand, its UniGen clean energy operation diversification investments in the years ahead. See Note 2 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for discussion on UniGen.

 

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on May 1, 2023, we identified the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the policies we follow for the valuation of our Hotel properties, which constitute a major portion of our assets, are our most critical policies which have not changed in the period ended July 31, 2023. Those policies include methods used to recognize and measure any identified impairment of our Hotel property assets.

 

Asset Impairment

 

We believe that the policies we follow for the valuation of our hotel properties, which constitute most of our assets, are our most critical policies. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued authoritative guidance related to the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, codified in ASC Topic 360-10-35, which we apply to determine when it is necessary to test an asset for recoverability. On an events and circumstances basis, we review the carrying value of our hotel properties. We will record an impairment loss and reduce the carrying value of a property when anticipated undiscounted future cash flows and the current market value of the property do not support it carrying value. In cases where we do not expect to recover the carrying cost of hotel properties held for use, we will reduce the carrying value to the fair value of the hotel, as determined by a current appraisal or other acceptable valuation methods. We did not recognize a hotel properties impairment loss for the six months ended July 31, 2023 or 2022. As of July 31, 2023, our management does not believe that the carrying values of any of our hotel properties are impaired.

 

Sale of Hotel Assets

 

Management believes that our currently owned Hotels are valued at prices that are reasonable in relation to their current fair market value. At this time, the Trust is unable to predict when, and if, either of its Hotel properties will be sold. The Trust seeks to sell both hotels over the next 12-36 months. We believe that each of the assets is available at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair market value. The plan is to work to sell the remaining two hotel properties over the next 12-36 months, and if needed beyond.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are primarily derived from the sources below and are recognized as services are rendered and when collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received in advance of revenue recognition are considered deferred liabilities and are generally not significant.

 

Revenues primarily consist of room rentals, food and beverage sales, management and trademark fees and other miscellaneous revenues from our properties. Revenues are recorded when rooms are occupied and when food and beverage sales are delivered.

 

35
 

 

Each room night consumed by a guest with a cancellable reservation represents a contract whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night at an agreed upon price. For cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue as each performance obligation (i.e., each room night) is met. Such contract is renewed if the guest continues their stay. For room nights consumed by a guest with a non-cancellable reservation, the entire reservation period represents the contract term whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night or nights at an agreed upon price. For non-cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue over the term of the performance period (i.e., the reservation period) as room nights are consumed. For these reservations, the room rate is typically fixed over the reservation period. The Trust uses an output method based on performance completed to date (i.e., room nights consumed) to determine the amount of revenue it recognizes on a daily basis if the length of a non-cancellable reservation exceeds one night since consumption of room nights indicates when services are transferred to the guest. In certain instances, variable consideration may exist with respect to the transaction price, such as discounts, coupons and price concessions made upon guest checkout.

 

In evaluating its performance obligation, the Trust bundles the obligation to provide the guest the room itself with other obligations (such as free Wi-Fi, grab and go breakfast, access to on-site laundry facilities and parking), as the other obligations are not distinct and separable because the guest cannot benefit from the additional amenities without the consumed room night. The Trust’s obligation to provide the additional items or services is not separately identifiable from the fundamental contractual obligation (i.e., providing the room and its contents). The Trust has no performance obligations once a guest’s stay is complete.

 

We are required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. We have a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. We do not retain these taxes and fees and, therefore, they are not included in revenues. We record a liability when the amounts are collected and relieve the liability when payments are made to the applicable taxing authority or other appropriate governmental agency.

 

COMPLIANCE WITH CONTINUED LISTING STANDARDS OF NYSE AMERICAN

 

The Trust’s Management received communication from the NYSE-American on August 29, 2022, indicating IHT is fully compliant with all of the Continued Listing Standards Equity Requirements set forth in Part 10 of the NYSE American Company Guide, of the NYSE-American.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

The following non-GAAP presentations of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) and funds from operations (“FFO”) are made to assist our investors in evaluating our operating performance.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, amortization of loan costs, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and non-controlling interests in the Trust. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe these measurements (a) more accurately reflect the ongoing performance of our hotel assets and other investments, (b) provide more useful information to investors as indicators of our ability to meet our future debt payments and working capital requirements, and (c) provide an overall evaluation of our financial condition. Adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other companies that do not define Adjusted EBITDA exactly as we define the term. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to (a) GAAP net income or loss as an indication of our financial performance or (b) GAAP cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

A reconciliation of net loss attributable to controlling interests to Adjusted EBITDA for the six and three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 is approximately as follows:

 

   Six Months Ended July 31, 
   2023   2022 
Net income attributable to controlling interests  $246,000  $284,000 
Add back:          
Depreciation   335,000    344,000 
Interest expense   253,000    258,000 
Less:          
Interest Income   (34,000)   (32,000)
Adjusted EBITDA  $800,000  $854,000 

 

   Six Months Ended July 31, 
   2023   2022 
Net income attributable to controlling interests  $19,000  $103,000 
Add back:          
Depreciation   167,000    173,000 
Interest expense   163,000    123,000 
Less:          
Interest Income   (16,000)   (16,000)
Adjusted EBITDA  $333,000  $383,000 

 

FFO is calculated on the basis defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which is net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, asset impairment adjustments, and extraordinary items as defined by GAAP, plus non-cash depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures and non-controlling interests in the operating partnership. NAREIT developed FFO as a relative measure of performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined by GAAP. The Trust is an unincorporated Ohio business investment, (real estate investment trust); however, the Trust is not a real estate investment trust for federal taxation purposes. Management uses this measurement to compare itself to REITs with similar depreciable assets. We consider FFO to be an appropriate measure of our ongoing normalized operating performance. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other companies that either do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or interpret the NAREIT definition differently than us. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities as determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to (a) GAAP net income or loss as an indication of our financial performance or (b) GAAP cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to satisfy our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. However, to facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, we believe that FFO should be considered along with our net income or loss and cash flows reported in the consolidated financial statements.

 

37
 

 

An approximate reconciliation of net loss attributable to controlling interests to FFO for the six and three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022:

 

   Six Months Ended July 31, 
   2023   2022 
Net income attributable to controlling interests  $246,000  $284,000 
Add back:          
Depreciation   335,000    344,000 
Non-controlling interest   286,000    346,000 
FFO  $867,000   $974,000 

 

   Six Months Ended July 31, 
   2023   2022 
Net income attributable to controlling interests  $19,000  $103,000 
Add back:          
Depreciation   335,000    344,000 
Non-controlling interest   57,000    158,000 
FFO  $411,000   $605,000 

 

FUTURE POSITIONING

 

In viewing the hotel industry cycles, recently reconfirmed by the disruption of travel and hospitality, the Board of Trustees determined that it was appropriate to continue to actively seek buyers for our two remaining Hotel properties. We continue to make our Tucson Hotel and Albuquerque Hotel available for sale at market value, on the website www.suitehotelsrealty.com.

 

The table below provides book values, mortgage balances and Estimated Market Asking Price for the Hotels.

 

           Estimated Market  
Hotel Property  Book Value   Mortgage Balance   Asking Price 
Albuquerque  $1,015,424   $1,228,045    9,500,000 
Tucson Oracle   6,067,608    8,135,354    18,500,000 
   $7,083,032   $9,363,399   $28,000,000 

 

The “Estimated Market Asking Price” is the amount at which we believe would sell each of the Hotels and is adjusted to reflect hotel sales in the Hotels’ areas of operation and projected upcoming 12 month earnings of each of the Hotels. The Estimated Market Asking Price is not based on appraisals of the properties.

 

We have from time to time listed hotel properties with a long time highly successful local real estate hotel broker who has successfully sold four of our hotel properties. We believe that each of the assets, the Tucson and Albuquerque hotels have an estimated market asking price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair market value. We plan to sell our remaining two Hotel properties within 12-36 months. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to sell either or both of the Hotel properties on terms favorable to us or within our expected time frame, or at all.

 

Although believed feasible, we may be unable to realize the asking price for the individual Hotel properties or to sell and/or refinance one or both. However, we believe that the asking price values are reasonable based on current strong local market conditions, comparable sales, and anticipated continued upturns in occupancy, rates, and profits per hotel. Changes in market conditions have in part resulted, and may in the future result, in our changing one or all of the asking prices.

 

Our long-term strategic plan is to obtain the full benefit of our real estate equity, to benefit from our UniGen Power, Inc., (UniGen) clean energy operation diversified investment, and to pursue a merger with another company, likely a private larger entity that seeks to go public to list on the NYSE AMERICAN Exchange.

 

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

 

For information on the Trust’s Share Repurchase Program, see Part II, Item 5. “Market for the Registrant’s Common Equity Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.” of our most recent 10-K Annual Report filed on May 1, 2023. The stock and unit Repurchase Program was highly successful during Fiscal Year 2023 (February 1, 2022 to January 31, 2023). We plan to continue the stock and unit buy backs in the current Fiscal Year 2024.

 

38
 

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. We do not have any majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries that are not included in our consolidated financial statements.

 

SEASONALITY

 

The Hotels’ operations historically have been somewhat seasonal. The Tucson Arizona Hotel historically experiences the highest occupancy in the first Fiscal Quarter (the winter high season) and, to a lesser extent, the fourth Fiscal Quarter. The second Fiscal Quarter (summer low season) historically tends to be the lowest occupancy period at this Arizona Hotel. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s quarterly revenues. The Hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico historically experiences its most profitable periods during the second and third Fiscal Quarters (the summer high season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business.

 

The seasonal nature of the Trust’s business increases its vulnerability to risks such as travel disruptions, labor force shortages and cash flow issues. Further, if an adverse event such as an actual or threatened virus pandemic, terrorist attack, international conflict, data breach, regional economic downturn or poor weather should occur at either of its two hotels, the adverse impact to the Trust’s revenues and profit could be significant.

 

INFLATION

 

We rely entirely on the performance of the Hotels and InnSuites ability to increase revenue to keep pace with inflation. Operators of hotels in general, and InnSuites in particular, can change room rates quickly, but competitive pressures may limit InnSuites ability to raise rates as fast as or faster than inflation. During Fiscal Year 2023, ended January 31, 2023, InnSuites did experience substantial increases in rates to offset the inflationary increase labor and other expenses.

 

INVESTMENT IN UNIGEN POWER, INC.

 

On December 16, 2019, the Trust entered into a Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement with UniGen Power Inc. (“UniGen”). InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) made an initial $1 million diversification investment in late Fiscal Year 2020 and early Fiscal Year 2021. UniGen is in the process of developing a patented high profit potential new efficient clean energy generation innovation. The initial investment was made December 16, 2019, with positive progress to date despite the virus, economic setbacks, international vendor travel disruptions, cost overruns, and delays. The investment includes convertible bonds, stocks, and warrants to purchase UniGen stock upon election of the Trust. The investment is valued at fair value (level 3), as defined in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. There is no Investment Commitment to UniGen requiring any restriction of cash.

 

The Trust purchased secured convertible debentures (“Debentures”) in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (the “Loan Amount”) (the “Loan”) at an annual interest rate of 6% ($15,000 per quarter). The Debentures are convertible into 1,000,000 Class A shares of UniGen Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of $1.00 per share.

 

The Trust has purchased approximately 525,000 shares of UniGen stock.

 

UniGen issued the Trust common stock purchase warrants (the “Debenture Warrants”) including to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Debenture Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

UniGen, also, issued the Trust additional common stock purchase warrants (“Additional Warrants”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Additional Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $2.25 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

UniGen has agreed to allow IHT to fund a $500,000 line of credit at the option of IHT convertible into 500,000 shares of UniGen stock at $1 per share. Currently, there is no outstanding balance at this time.

 

The total of all stock ownership upon conversion of the note receivable and exercise of warrants could total up to 3 million UniGen shares, which amounts to approximately 25% of fully diluted UniGen equity.

 

On the Trust’s balance sheet, the investment of the $1,603,750 consists of approximately $700,000 in note receivables, approximately $300,000 as the fair value of the warrants issued with the Trust’s investment in UniGen, and $603,750 of UniGen Common Stock (510,000 shares), at cost. The value of the premium related to the fair value of the warrant will accrete over the life of the debentures.

 

Privately held UniGen Power, Inc. (UniGen) is developing a patented high profit potential new efficient clean energy generation innovation. The investment is valued at fair value (level 3), as defined in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. There is no Investment Commitment to UniGen requiring any restriction of cash.

 

39
 

 

UniGen has confirmed that prototype design engineering for the UPI 1000TA engine is now complete. A majority of parts and tooling have been ordered, arriving daily.

 

Engineering work is complete on the prototype and has been placed on hold, while UniGen concentrates on its next round of capital raising. IHT may participate in the upcoming round of capital raising through the exercise of existing warrants, which may or may not result in further increase of IHT fully diluted ownership.

 

UniGen is a high risk investment offering high potential investment return if and when successful.

 

Based on a 96 core “super computer “ simulated test together with advanced software, UniGen has confirmed that the UPI 1000TA engine with the addition of recent technological advancements, is approximately 33% more fuel efficient than first estimated and will emit only approximately 25% of the maximum admissions allowed by CARB, the strictest of the regulatory standards issued by the state of California.

 

The UniGen design is to produce generators fueled not only with abundant relatively clean natural gas but also with other even cleaner fuels such as ethanol and hydrogen (that emits only water).

 

James Wirth (IHT President) and Marc Berg (IHT Executive Vice President) both lack significant UniGen control. They have two of the seven UniGen Board of Directors seats or 28% and were elected in December 2019 to serve on the board of UniGen to closely monitor and assist in the success of this potentially power industry disruptive relatively clean energy generation innovation.

 

The Trust has valued UniGen investment as a level 3 fair value measurement, for the following reasons: The investment does not qualify for level 1 since there are no identical actively traded instruments or level 2 identical or similar unobservable markets.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were fully effective as of July 31, 2023.

 

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Trust’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Trust’s Board of Trustees, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Based on management’s assessment, management concluded our internal control over financial reporting was fully effective as of July 31, 2023.

 

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

 

In an effort to remediate past deficiencies and enhance the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting, the Trust previously increased its technical accounting expertise through an increasingly seasoned Chief Financial Officer, and in Fiscal Years 2023/2024 promoting its Corporate Controller, and employing two full-time Staff Accountants to assist with the Trust’s technical accounting and internal control issues. The CFO has extensive public company reporting experience, to further assist with the Trust’s technical accounting and internal controls.

 

We continue to take appropriate and reasonable additional steps to make necessary improvements to our Accounting staff and internal control over financial reporting, which may require management to support additional hiring and training of sufficient personnel with appropriate training and expertise in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This additional staffing and training has and will allow us to make the necessary improvements, including:

 

  Continuing to improve the control environment through (i) being staffed with sufficient number of personnel to address segregation of duties issues, ineffective controls and to perform control monitoring activities, (ii) increasing the level of GAAP knowledge by retaining additional technical accountants, (iii) implementing formal process to account for non-standard transactions, and (iv) implementing and formalizing management oversight of financial reporting at regular intervals;
     
  Continuing to update the documentation of our internal control processes, including implementing formal risk assessment processes and entity level controls;
     
  Implementing control activities that address relevant risks and assure that all transactions are subject to such control activities; Ensure systems that impact financial information and disclosures have effective information technology controls;
     
  Implementing plan to increase oversight and review of ad hoc spreadsheets while also working to reduce their use;
     
 

We are in the process of further enhancing the supervisory procedures to include additional levels of analysis and quality control reviews within the accounting and financial reporting functions; and

 

  IHT previously strengthened the position of Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to assist with the Trust’s internal controls oversight.
     
  IHT filled the position of Controller, to further assist with the Trust’s internal controls oversight, and process accounting.

 

We believe that the remediation measures described above have and will continue to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and remediate any material weaknesses that may be identified. These remediation efforts were implemented throughout Fiscal Year 2023, and early Fiscal Year 2024. Additional strengthening may take place in the balance of the current Fiscal Year 2024, as well.

 

Our management believes that our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended July 31, 2023 fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the periods covered by this report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were continued positive changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended July 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. With the several new additions aforementioned above, these new additions should assist with the Trust’s stability, technical accounting, and internal control issues.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Risks Relating to COVID-19

 

In Fiscal Year 2022, ended January 31, 2022, COVID-19 had shrinking impact on our business, financial results and liquidity. Fiscal Year 2023, starting February 1, 2022 and ending January 31, 2023, showed a significant strong rebound and encouraging progress, with signs of complete recovery. The start of Fiscal Year 2024, starting February 1, 2023 and ending January 31, 2024, has shown no material ill effects from the pandemic.

 

COVID-19 and its consequences previously reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms, which previously had an impact our business, operations, and financial results. We believe that lodging demand and revenue level is largely recovered. The extent to which COVID-19 currently impacts our business, operations, and financial results, including the duration and magnitude of such effects, is diminished. The negative impact COVID-19 had on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on consumer discretionary spending has been reduced significantly, and its short and longer-term impact on the demand for travel, transient and group business, and levels of consumer confidence is no longer considered a major factor for Fiscal Year 2024, (February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2024).

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

Holders of the Trust’s Shares of Beneficial Interest are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by the Board of Trustees of the Trust out of funds legally available. The holders of Shares of Beneficial Interest, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-down of the Trust, are entitled to share ratably in any assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities of the Trust. The Shares of Beneficial Interest possess ordinary voting rights, each share entitling the holder thereof to one vote. Holders of Shares of Beneficial Interest do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of Trustees and do not have preemptive rights.

 

For the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, the Trust repurchased 15,795 and 0 Shares of Beneficial Interest at an average price of $2.53 and $0 per share, respectively. The average price paid includes brokerage commissions. The Trust intends to continue repurchasing Shares of Beneficial Interest in compliance with applicable legal and NYSE AMERICAN requirements. The Trust’s management believes the Trust share price does not fully recognize the Trust’s full value and/or full potential. During the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Trust acquired 0 Shares of Beneficial Interest in open market transactions. During Fiscal Year 2023 (February 1, 2022 to January 31, 2023), the Trust repurchased 44,076 IHT Shares at an average price of $2.96 per share.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

As of July 31, 2023, InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”, “IHT”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a publicly traded unincorporated Ohio real estate investment trust (REIT) with two hotels that IHT has an ownership interest in and manages. The Trust and its shareholders directly in and through a Partnership, own interests in two hotels with an aggregate of 270 hotel suites in Arizona and New Mexico. Both are operated under the federally trademarked name “InnSuites”, as well as operating under the brand name “Best Western”. The Trust and its shareholders hold a diversification $1 million 6% convertible debenture in UniGen Power Inc., (“UniGen”), approximately $618,750 in UniGen’s privately-held common stock (525,000 shares), and hold warrants to make further UniGen Investments in the future.

 

Hotel Operations:

 

Our Tucson, Arizona Hotel and our Hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico are moderate service hotels. Both hotels offer swimming pools, fitness centers, business centers, and complimentary breakfast. In addition the Hotels offer complementary social areas and modest conference facilities. The Tucson hotel has “PJ’s” Pub and Café, as well.

 

The Trust is the sole general partner of RRF Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and owned a 75.98% interest in the Partnership as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, respectively. The Trust’s weighted average ownership for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 was 75.98%. As of July 31, 2023, the Partnership owned a 51.01% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Tucson, Arizona. The Trust owns a direct 21% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

 

RRF Limited Partnership, a subsidiary, manages the Hotels’ daily operations under 2 management agreements. The Trust also provides the use of the “InnSuites” trademark to the Hotels. All expenses and reimbursements between the Trust and RRF Partnership have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Trust classified the Hotels as operating assets, but these assets are available for sale. At this time, the Trust is unable to predict when, and if, either of these will be sold. Neither the Tucson Hotel nor the Albuquerque Hotel is currently listed for sale but the Trust is willing to consider offers for each Hotel. Each of the Hotels is being made available at a price that management believes is reasonable in relation to its current fair market value, earnings, profits, and replacement cost.

 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Trust and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain items have been reclassified to conform to the current fiscal year presentation. The Trust exercises unilateral control over the Partnership and the entities listed below. Therefore, the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Partnership and the entities listed below are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

   IHT OWNERSHIP % 
ENTITY  DIRECT   INDIRECT (i) 
Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC   21.50%   - 
Tucson Hospitality Properties, LLLP   -    51.01%
RRF Limited Partnership   75.98%   - 

 

  (i) Indirect ownership is through the Partnership

 

 

PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

 

The Partnership Agreement of the Partnership provides for the issuance of two classes of Limited Partnership units, Class A and Class B. Class A and Class B Partnership units are identical in all respects. On July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, 200,003 Class A Partnership units were issued and outstanding, representing 1.51% of the total Partnership units, respectively. Additionally, as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, 2,974,038 Class B Partnership units were outstanding to and owned by James Wirth, the Trust’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Wirth’s affiliates, representing 22.51% ownership in the Partnership. If all the Class A and B Partnership units were converted on July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, the limited partners in the Partnership would receive 3,174,041 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. As of July 31, 2023, and January 31, 2023, the Trust owns 10,037,476 general partner units in the Partnership, representing 75.98% of the total Partnership units.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

The Trust’s principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements is revenues from hotel room reservations and from RRF Management fees from the Tucson, Arizona and Albuquerque, New Mexico properties. The Trust’s liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to its shareholders, and to service debt, will depend upon the ability of the Trust and the Partnership’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from hotel operations, as well as to generate funds from repayment of intercompany advances and sale of assets.

 

At a future date, the Trust may receive cash from hotel and energy operations and/or full or partial sale of one or both hotels, and/or full or partial sale of its UniGen diversification investment.

 

As of July 31, 2023, the Trust had a related party Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note with an amount payable of approximately $0. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note accrues interest at 7.0% per annum and requires interest only payments. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note has a maximum borrowing capacity to $2,000,000, which is available through December 31, 2023, and automatically renews annually. This is a two-way Line of Credit, with both the Trust and an Affiliate lender having access to draw on the credit amount of up to $2,000,000 for either party.

 

As of July 31, 2023, the Trust had three Revolving lines of Credit totaling $250,000 with the Republic Bank of Arizona. The lines had a zero balance as of July 31, 2023.

 

With approximately $2,399,000 of cash, as of July 31, 2023, the availability of $2,250,000 from the combined $2,000,000 Advance to Affiliate credit facilities, and the $250,000 Revolving Lines of Credit with Republic Bank, the Trust believes that it has and will have enough cash on hand to meet all of the financial obligations as they become due for twelve months from the date of filing this 10-Q, and beyond. In addition, management is analyzing strategic options available to the Trust, including the sale of one or both Hotel properties, and/or a possible merger, or reverse merger. However, such transactions may not be available on terms that are favorable to the Trust, or at all.

 

There can be no assurance that the Trust will be successful selling properties, merging, or raising additional or replacement funds, or that these funds may be available on terms that are favorable to it. If the Trust is unable to raise additional or replacement funds, it may be required to sell or refinance certain of our assets to meet liquidity needs, which may not be on terms that are favorable.

 

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Trust in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), for interim financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the Trust believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

Operating results for the six months ended July 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the Fiscal Year ending January 31, 2024. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2023.

 

The Trust has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the filing of its Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other than those events disclosed including the recovery of economic and business activity, the Company is not aware of any other significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Trust’s financial statements.

 

As the general partner of the Partnership, the Trust exercises unilateral control over the Partnership. Therefore, the financial statements of the Partnership are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810-10-25, Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC has been determined to be a variable interest entity with the Partnership as the primary beneficiary (see Note 4 – “Variable Interest Entity”). Therefore, the financial statements of Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC, are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

The financial statements of the Partnership and Tucson Hospitality Properties, LLLP are consolidated with the Partnership and the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

SEASONALITY OF THE HOTEL BUSINESS

 

The Hotels’ operations historically have been somewhat seasonal. The Tucson Arizona Hotel historically experiences the highest occupancy in the first Fiscal Quarter (the winter high season) and, to a lesser extent, the fourth Fiscal Quarter. The second Fiscal Quarter (summer low season) historically tends to be the lowest occupancy period at this Arizona Hotel. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s quarterly revenues. The Hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico historically experiences its most profitable periods during the second and third Fiscal Quarters (the summer high season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business.

 

The seasonal nature of the Trust’s business increases its vulnerability to risks such as travel disruptions, labor force shortages and cash flow issues. Further, if an adverse event such as an actual or threatened virus pandemic, terrorist attack, international conflict, data breach, regional economic downturn or poor weather should occur at either of its two hotels, the adverse impact to the Trust’s revenues and profit could be significant.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The Trust’s operations are affected by numerous factors, including the economy, inflation, virus/pandemic, competition in the hotel industry and the effect of the economy on the travel and hospitality industries. The Trust cannot predict if any of the above items will have a significant impact in the future, nor can it predict what impact, if any, the occurrence of these or other events might have on the Trust’s operations and cash flows. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to, the estimated useful lives of long-lived assets and recoverability of long-lived assets and the fair values of the long-lived assets.

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Furniture, fixtures, building and improvements and hotel properties are stated at cost, except for land, and depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated lives ranging up to 40 years for buildings and improvements, and 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment.

 

Land is an indefinite-lived asset. The Trust tests its land for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicates an impairment may have occurred, by comparing its carrying value to its implied fair value.

 

For tax purposes the Trust takes advantage of accelerated depreciation methods (MACRS) for new capital additions and improvements to its Hotels.

 

Management applies guidance ASC 360-10-35, to determine when it is required to test an asset for recoverability of its carrying value and whether, or not, an impairment exists. Under ASC 360-10-35, the Trust is required to test a long-lived asset for impairment when there is an indicator of impairment. Impairment indicators may include, but are not limited to, a drop in the performance of a long-lived asset, a decline in the hospitality industry or a decline in the economy. If an indicator of potential impairment is present, then an assessment is performed of whether the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows over its estimated remaining life.

 

If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows over the asset’s estimated remaining life are greater than the asset’s carrying value, no impairment is recognized; however, if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, then the Trust would recognize an impairment expense to the extent the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, if any. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. Long-lived assets evaluated for impairment are analyzed on a property-specific basis independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. Evaluation of future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including certain economic conditions, and committed future bookings. Management has determined that no further impairment is required of long-lived assets for the fiscal period ended July 31, 2023.

 

CASH

 

The Trust believes it places its cash only with high credit quality financial institutions, although these balances periodically exceed federally insured limits.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Hotel and Operations

 

Revenues are primarily derived from the sources below and are recognized as services are rendered and when collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received in advance of revenue recognition are considered deferred liabilities and are generally not significant.

 

 

Revenues primarily consist of room rentals, food and beverage sales, management and trademark fees and other miscellaneous revenues from our properties. Revenues are recorded when rooms are occupied and when food and beverage sales are delivered. Management and trademark fees include a monthly accounting fee and a percentage of hotel room revenues for managing the daily operations of the Hotels.

 

Each room night consumed by a guest with a cancellable reservation represents a contract whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night at an agreed upon price. For cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue as each performance obligation (i.e., each room night) is met. Such contract is renewed if the guest continues their stay. For room nights consumed by a guest with a non-cancellable reservation, the entire reservation period represents the contract term whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night or nights at an agreed upon price. For non-cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue over the term of the performance period (i.e., the reservation period) as room nights are consumed. For these reservations, the room rate is typically fixed over the reservation period. The Trust uses an output method based on performance completed to date (i.e., room nights consumed) to determine the amount of revenue it recognizes on a daily basis if the length of a non-cancellable reservation exceeds one night since consumption of room nights indicates when services are transferred to the guest. In certain instances, variable consideration may exist with respect to the transaction price, such as discounts, coupons and price concessions made upon guest checkout.

 

In evaluating its performance obligation, the Trust bundles the obligation to provide the guest the room itself with other obligations (such as free Wi-Fi, complimentary breakfast, and high speed internet), as the other obligations are not distinct and separable because the guest cannot benefit from the additional amenities without the consumed room night. The Trust’s obligation to provide the additional items or services is not separately identifiable from the fundamental contractual obligation (i.e., providing the room and its contents). The Trust has no performance obligations once a guest’s stay is complete.

 

We are required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. We have a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. We do not retain these taxes and fees and, therefore, they are not included in revenues. We record a liability when the amounts are collected and relieve the liability when payments are made to the applicable taxing authority or other appropriate governmental agency.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

 

Accounts receivable are derived from guest stays and other reservations at the Hotels. Accounts receivable are carried at original amounts billed less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding amounts on a quarterly basis. Management generally records an allowance for doubtful accounts for 50% of balances over 90 days due and 100% of balances over 120 days due. Accounts receivable are written off when collection efforts have been exhausted and they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries, if any, of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Trust does not charge interest on accounts receivable balances and these receivables are unsecured. There is $0 in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023.

 

 

LEASE ACCOUNTING

 

The Trust determines, at the inception of a contract, if the arrangement is a lease and whether it meets the classification criteria for a finance or operating lease. Right of Use (ROU), assets represent the Trust’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Trust’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets also include any advance lease payments and exclude lease incentives. As most of the Trust’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Trust uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Finance lease agreements generally include an interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating fixed lease expense and finance lease depreciation expense are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term (see Note 14).

 

TRUSTEE STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Trust has an employee equity incentive plan, which is described more fully in Note 15 - “Share-Based Payments.” The three independent members of the Board of Trustees each earn 9,000 IHT fully paid restricted Shares per year. All shares vest over one year from date of grant. The Trust has paid the annual fees due to its Trustees by issuing Shares of Beneficial Interest out of its authorized but unissued Shares. Upon issuance, the Trust recognizes the shares as outstanding. The Trust recognizes expense related to the issuance based on the fair value of the shares upon the date of the restricted share grant and amortizes the expense equally over the period during which the shares vest to the Trustees. From time to time, the Trustees and key employees receive one-time fully paid restricted share grants, as well.

 

TREASURY STOCK

 

Treasury stock is carried at cost, including any brokerage commissions paid to repurchase the shares. Any shares issued from treasury stock are removed at cost, with the difference between cost and fair value at the time of issuance recorded against Shares of Beneficial Interest. InnSuites Hospitality Trust continues its Company Stock Buyback Plan allowed within the NYSE American limitations.

 

NET INCOME PER SHARE

 

Basic and diluted net income per Share of Beneficial Interest is computed based on the weighted-average number of Shares of Beneficial Interest and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities are limited to the Class A and Class B units of the Partnership, which are convertible into 3,174,041 Shares of the Beneficial Interest, as discussed in Note 1.

 

 

For the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, there were Class A and Class B Partnership units outstanding, which are convertible into Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion at the beginning of each period, the aggregate weighted-average of these Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,174,041 in addition to the basic shares outstanding for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These Shares of Beneficial Interest issuable upon conversion of the Class A and Class B Partnership units were anti-dilutive during the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 and are excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for those periods.

 

ADVERTISING COSTS

 

Amounts incurred for advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for operations totaled approximately $83,000 and $62,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively, and $165,000 and $171,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Trust to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Management’s assessment of the Trust’s credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is low as cash and cash equivalents are held in financial institutions believed to be credit worthy. The Trust limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with various major financial institutions and invests only in short-term obligations.

 

While the Trust is exposed to credit losses due to the non-performance of its counterparties, the Trust considers the risk of this remote. The Trust estimates its maximum credit risk for accounts receivable at the amount recorded on the balance sheet.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

For disclosure purposes, fair value is determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy levels are as follows:

 

  Level 1 – Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured.
     
  Level 2 – Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and / or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are level 2 valuation techniques.
     
  Level 3 – Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect a company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

 

The Trust has assets that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including stock and warrants in a 3rd party private company on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Due to their short maturities, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value. The fair value of mortgage notes payable, notes payable to banks and notes and advances payable to related parties is estimated by using the current rates which would be available for similar loans having the same remaining maturities and are based on level 3 inputs.

 

CONVERTIBLE NOTE RECEIVABLE, COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS IN UNIGEN POWER, INC.

 

On December 16, 2019 the Trust entered into a Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement with UniGen Power Inc. (“UniGen”).

 

The Trust purchased secured convertible debentures (“Debentures”) in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (the “Loan Amount”) at an annual interest rate of 6% (approximately $15,000 per quarter). The Debentures are convertible into 1,000,000 Class A shares of UniGen Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of $1.00 per share.

 

UniGen issued the Trust common stock purchase warrants (the “Debenture Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Debenture Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

UniGen also issued the Trust additional common stock purchase warrants (“Additional Warrants”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of UniGen Class A Common Stock. The Additional Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $2.25 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

IHT may fund at IHT’s sole discretion a $500,000 line of credit at the option of IHT convertible into 500,000 shares of UniGen stock at $1 per share.

 

The total of all stock ownership upon conversion of the note receivable is 1 million shares and if all stock warrants available are exercised, these could total approximately 3 million UniGen shares, which amounts to approximately 25% of fully diluted UniGen equity.

 

On the Trust’s balance sheet, the investment of the $1,000,000 consists of approximately $700,000 in note receivables and approximately $300,000 as the fair value of the warrant issued with the Trust’s investment in UniGen. The value of the premium related to the fair value of the warrants will accrete over the life of the debentures.

 

The value of the warrants issued with the note receivable was based on Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following inputs:

 

Debenture Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $1.00 
Time to maturity (years)   2.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

Additional Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $2.25 
Time to maturity (years)   3.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

 

If all notes are converted and all available but not outstanding warrants exercised, IHT could hold up to approximately 25% of UniGen fully diluted equity ownership. Subsequent to January 31, 2023, no activity has occurred with this line of credit and thus no draws have been taken.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $60,000 of interest income to exercise 60,000 warrants for 60,000 shares of common stock in UniGen. Additionally, the Trust exercised 161,250 warrants for a total of $255,000 for 161,250 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

During the Second Fiscal Quarter (May 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023), three months ended July 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $15,000 of interest income to exercise 15,000 warrants for 15,000 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

As of July 31, 2023, IHT held 525,000 common shares of UniGen, purchased at a cost of $618,750. Management believes recording the investment at cost approximates fair value since there have been no significant changes in the operations of UniGen and UniGen’s projects are still in the R&D phase.

 

UniGen Power Inc. management reports the following progress of the InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) efficient clean energy innovation diversification investment:

 

1. Despite travel and supply chain disruptions including “reshoring” of a portion of UniGen parts, UniGen management continues to make progress on completing the UPI 1000TA first prototype to be assembled within the next year. In early 2023, with prototype engineering complete, UniGen paused engineering to raise additional capital with strong initial interest.

 

2. Due to global travel and economic events, an increasingly unreliable American power grid, increasing demand for electric vehicles, inflation, and supply chain pressures, the UniGen marketing team estimates product’s market has grown, and has increased the MSP planned power plant price. The initial order for thirty units has been reaffirmed.

 

3. UniGen is currently seeking an investor for its next round of financing, to complete the prototype to get assembled, and then ready for testing.

 

James Wirth (President) and Marc Berg (Executive Vice President) both lack significant control. They have two of the seven Board of Directors seats or 28% and were elected in December 2019 to serve on the board of UNIGEN to closely monitor and assist in the success of this potentially power industry disruptive relatively clean energy generation innovation.

 

The Trust has valued UniGen investment as a level 3 fair value measurement, for the following reasons: The investment does not qualify for level 1 since there are no identical actively traded instruments or level 2 identical or similar unobservable markets.

3. OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN ALBQUERQUE AND TUCSON SUBSIDIARIES

 

The Trust has sold non-controlling interests in certain subsidiaries, including Albuquerque Suite Hospitality, LLC (the “Albuquerque entity”) and Tucson Hospitality Properties, LLLP (the “Tucson entity, which sales are described in detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on May 1, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commissions. Generally, interests have sold for $10,000 per unit with a two-unit minimum subscription. The Trust maintains at least 50.1% of the units in one of the entities and intends to maintain this minimum ownership percentage. Generally, the units in the each of the entities are allocated to three classes with differing cumulative discretionary priority distribution rights through a certain time period. Class A units are owned by unrelated third parties and have priority for distributions. Class B units are owned by the Trust and have second priority for distributions. Class C units are owned by Rare Earth or other affiliates of Mr. Wirth and have the lowest priority for distributions. Priority distributions of $700 per unit per year are cumulative until a certain date; however, after that date, generally Class A unit holders continue to hold a preference on distributions over Class B and Class C unit holders. The Trust does not accrue for these distributions as the preference periods have expired.

 

On February 15, 2017, the Trust and Partnership entered into a restructuring agreement with Rare Earth Financial, LLC (“REF”) to allow for the sale of non-controlling partnership units in Albuquerque Suite Hospitality LLC (“Albuquerque”) for $10,000 per unit, which operates the Best Western InnSuites Albuquerque Hotel and Suites Airport hotel property, a 112 unit hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico (the “Property”). This restructuring is part of the Trust’s Equity Enhancement Plan to comply with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. For the three months ending April 30, 2023 and 2022, the Trust sold 0 units for $10,000 per unit, respectively.

 

On October 1, 2013, the Partnership entered into an updated restructured limited partnership agreement with Rare Earth to allow for the sale of additional interest units in the Tucson entity for $10,000 per unit. Under the agreement, Rare Earth agreed to either purchase or bring in other investors to purchase up to 160 (and potentially up to 200 if the overallotment is exercised) units. Under the terms of the updated restructuring agreement, the Partnership agreed to hold at least 50.1% of the outstanding limited partnership units in the Tucson entity, on a post-transaction basis, and intends to maintain this minimum ownership percentage through the purchase of units under this offering. The Board of Trustees approved this restructuring on September 14, 2013. The limited partnership interests in the Tucson entity are allocated to three classes with differing cumulative discretionary priority distribution rights through June 30, 2017. Class A units are owned by unrelated third parties and have priority for distributions. Class B units are owned by the Partnership and have second priority for distributions. Class C units are owned by Rare Earth or other affiliates of Mr. Wirth and have the lowest priority for distributions from the Tucson entity. Priority distributions of $700 per unit per year are cumulative until June 30, 2016; however, after June 30, 2016 Class A unit holders continue to hold a preference on distributions over Class B and Class C unit holders. The Trust does not accrue for these distributions as the preference periods have expired.

 

For the Albuquerque entity, three Class A units were sold back to the Trust during the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023 for $30,000. As of April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2023, respectively, the Trust held a 21.50% ownership interest, or 129 Class B units, in the Albuquerque entity, Mr. Wirth and his affiliates held a 0.17% interest, or 1 Class C units, and other parties held a 78.33% interest, or 470 Class A units.

 

For the Tucson entity, as of April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2023, respectively, the Partnership held a 51.01% ownership interest, or 404 Class B units, in the Tucson, Mr. Wirth and his affiliates held a 0.38% interest, or 3 Class C units, and other parties held a 48.61% interest, or 385 Class A units.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

4. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

 

Management evaluates the Trust’s explicit and implicit variable interests to determine if they have any interests in variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Variable interests are contractual, ownership, or other pecuniary interests in an entity whose value changes with changes in the fair value of the entity’s net assets, exclusive of variable interests. Explicit variable interests are those which directly absorb the variability of a VIE and can include contractual interests such as loans or guarantees as well as equity investments. An implicit variable interest acts the same as an explicit variable interest except it involves the absorbing of variability indirectly, such as through related party arrangements or implicit guarantees. The analysis includes consideration of the design of the entity, its organizational structure, including decision making ability over the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. GAAP requires a reporting entity to consolidate a VIE when the reporting entity has a variable interest, or combination of variable interest, that provides it with a controlling financial interest in the VIE. The entity that consolidates a VIE is referred to as the primary beneficiary of that VIE.

 

The Partnership has determined that the Albuquerque entity is a variable interest entity with the Partnership as the primary beneficiary with the ability to exercise control, as determined under the guidance of ASC Topic 810-10-25. In its determination, management considered the following qualitative and quantitative factors:

 

a) The Partnership, Trust, and their related parties, which share common ownership and management, have guaranteed material financial obligations of the Albuquerque hotel, including.

 

b) The Partnership, Trust and their related parties have maintained, as a group, a controlling ownership interest in the Albuquerque hotel, with the largest ownership belonging to the Trust.

 

c) The Partnership, Trust and their related parties have maintained control over the decisions which most impact the financial performance of the Albuquerque hotel, including providing the personnel to operate the property daily.

 

During the six months ended July 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023, neither the Trust nor the Partnership have provided any implicit or explicit financial support for which they were not previously contracted. Both the Partnership and the Trust provided mortgage loan guarantees which allow our properties to obtain new financing as needed, including the refinance of the Tucson Hotel on March 29, 2022.

Restricted Cash:

 

The Trust is obligated under a loan agreement relating to the Tucson Oracle property to deposit 4% of the individual hotel’s room revenue into an escrow account to be used for capital expenditures. The escrow funds applicable to the Tucson Oracle property for which a mortgage lender escrow exists is reported on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” Since a $0 cash balance existed in Restricted Cash as of July 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023, Restricted Cash line was omitted on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Membership Agreements:

 

The Tucson and Albuquerque Hotels have entered into membership agreements with Best Western International, Inc. (“Best Western”) for both hotel properties. In exchange for use of the Best Western name, trademark and reservation system, all Hotels pay fees to Best Western based on reservations received through the use of the Best Western reservation system and the number of available suites at the Hotels. The agreements with Best Western have no specific expiration terms and may be cancelled annually by either party. Best Western requires that the hotels meet certain requirements for room quality. The two Best Western Hotels receive significant reservations through the Best Western reservation system, and through Online Travel Agent (OTA) reservations systems, Expedia and Booking.com. Under these arrangements, fees paid for membership fees and reservations were approximately $97,000 and $93,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These costs include fees for the Albuquerque and Tucson hotels in 2022. These fees are included in room operating expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for Albuquerque and Tucson.

 

 

Litigation:

 

The Trust is involved from time to time in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

 

The nature of the operations of the Hotels exposes them to risks of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be determined and is covered by insurance, management does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Trust.

 

Indemnification:

 

The Trust has entered into indemnification agreements with all our executive officers and Trustees. The agreements provide for indemnification against all liabilities and expenses reasonably incurred by an officer or Trustee in connection with the defense or disposition of any suit or other proceeding, in which he or she may be involved or with which he or she may be threatened, while in office or thereafter, because of his or her position at the Trust. There is no indemnification for any matter as to which an officer or Trustee is adjudicated to have acted in bad faith, with willful misconduct or reckless disregard of his or her duties, with gross negligence, or not in good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the Trust’s best interests. These agreements require the Trust, among other things, to indemnify the Trustee or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as our Trustee or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by us. The Trust may advance payments in connection with indemnification under the agreements. The level of indemnification is to the full extent of the net equity based on appraised and/or market value of the Trust. Historically, the Trust has not incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Sale of IBC Hospitality Technologies; IBC Hotels LLC (IBC)

 

On August 15, 2018 InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) entered into a final sale agreement of its technology subsidiary, IBC Hotels LLC (IBC), to an unrelated third-party buyer (Buyer). As a part of the amended sale agreement, the Trust received a secured promissory note adjusted to the principal amount of $1,925,000 with interest to be accrued at 3.75% per annum, which is recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in continuing operations.

 

  No interest accrued through May 2023, and no payments on the note receivable including principal and interest based on the extended time period are due through May 2023.
     
  Note is secured by (1) pledge of the Buyer’s interest in IBC, and (2) a security interest in all assets of IBC, provided IHT shall agree to subordinate such equity interest to commercially reasonable debt financing upon request.
     
  If IBC closes an equity transaction with net proceeds to IBC in excess of $2,500,000, IBC/Buyer shall pay or pre-pay to IHT an amount equal to (a) 50% of the net proceeds received by IBC and (b) 50% of the sum of the unpaid balance of the note and accrued interest accrued but unpaid interest thereon, as the date of receipt of the net proceeds by IBC.
     
  The note matures on June 1, 2024. IHT is in discussions for a further extension/modification.
     
  Future payments on this note are shown in the table below.

As of July 31, 2023, management evaluated the carrying value of the note determined no further impairment is needed at this time. This is detailed further with ongoing discussions of an extension, which allows time for IBC to benefit from the current rebound in the travel, hospitality services, and hotel industries currently being experienced.

 

IHT has no managerial control nor does IHT have the ability to direct the operations or capital requirements of IBC as of August 1, 2018. IHT has no rights to any benefits or losses from IBC as of August 1, 2018.

The Trust is taxed as a C-Corporation. The Trust’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Trust has from time to time received various IRS and state tax jurisdiction notices which the Trust is in the process of responding to in which management believes the notices are without merit and expect full remediation of all tax notices. The Trust and subsidiaries have deferred tax assets of $4.3 million which includes cumulative net operating loss carryforwards of $1.4 million and syndications of $2.9 million, and deferred tax liability associated with book/tax differences of $1.8 million as of January 31, 2023. We have evaluated the net deferred tax asset and determined that it is more likely than not we will receive full benefit from the net operating loss carryforwards. Therefore, we have determined a valuation allowance of approximately $2.6 million.

COVID-19 DISCLOSURE

18. COVID-19 DISCLOSURE

 

COVID-19 had a material detrimental impact on our business, financial results and liquidity, in Fiscal Year 2021, ended January 31, 2021. Its consequences had dramatically reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms, in Fiscal Year 2021. We believe that lodging demand and revenue level have now significantly recovered.

 

In Fiscal Year 2022, ended January 31, 2022, and Fiscal Year 2023, starting February 1, 2022 and ending January 31, 2023, InnSuites and the travel industry showed a significant rebound. The start of Fiscal Year 2024, starting February 1, 2023 and ending January 31, 2024, has shown no material ill effects from the pandemic whatsoever.

 

COVID-19 and its consequences previously reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms, which previously had an adverse impact our business, operations, and financial results. We believe that lodging demand and revenue level has now rebounded to near full recovery. The extent to which COVID-19 currently impacts our business, operations, and financial results, including the duration and magnitude of such effects, is diminished. The negative impact COVID-19 had on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on consumer discretionary spending has been reduced significantly, and its short and longer-term impact on the demand for travel, transient and group business, and levels of consumer confidence is no longer considered a major factor for Fiscal Year 2024, (February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2024).

20. EMPLOYEE RETENTION TAX CREDIT

 

The Trust is participating in Economic Relief through a Credit allowed for Entities that suffered financial hardship during the Covid-19 Pandemic, under the CARES (The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act (2020), and The Consolidated Appropriations Act (2021). Both provided fast and direct economic assistance for American workers, families, small businesses, and industries, by the U.S. Department of the Treasury along with Congress. This Credit was available for all Entities impacted by the Virus and who paid Employment Taxes, while trying to remain solvent and viable. It is a fully refundable tax credit for Eligible Employers that paid employees to carry on a trade or business that was partially or fully suspended during any calendar year 2020; or that experienced significant decline in gross receipts during any calendar quarter in 2020, due to COVID-19.

 

As a result of both legislative acts, the Trust is expected to be receiving a net of approximately $2.7 million in a combination of Employment Tax Refunds and Credits, for the two calendar years 2020, and 2021, respectively. As a result, the Trust conservatively placed an amount equal to approximately 12% per Fiscal Quarter of this total as a Tax Credit Receivable and Tax Refund on the Balance Sheet and Income statement, respectively, for the year ended January 31, 2023. The Trust has further conservatively recognized an additional 12% approximately of the total anticipated Tax Credit receivable for the Quarter ended July 31, 2023. As of July 31, 2023, IHT has received approximately $1.9 million, and is expected to receive an additional $0.8 million.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Trust intends to maintain its current conservative dividend policy. The Trust currently is, and has, been paying two semi-annual dividends each Fiscal Year totaling $0.02 per share per Fiscal Year. In the Fiscal Years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, the Trust paid dividends of $0.01 per share per share in each of the second and the fourth quarters. The Trust has paid dividends each Fiscal Year since its inception in 1971. The Trust paid the scheduled semi-annual $0.01 dividend payable on July 29, 2022, as well as February 1, 2023, and is once again anticipated for July 31, 2023.

 

The Trust’s Management received communication from the NYSE-American on August 29, 2022, indicating IHT is fully compliant with all of the Continued Listing Standards Equity Requirements set forth in Part 10 of the NYSE American Company Guide, of the NYSE-American.

 

Subsequent to the Fiscal Second Quarter ended July 31, 2023, the Trust repurchased 76,165 Shares of Beneficial Interest on the open market for a total cash repurchase price of approximately $183,533.

 

Hotel Operation results of the Albuquerque Hotel and the Tucson Hotel both achieved record results for the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023. Continued record results are expected for the two hotels, during Fiscal Year 2024, ending January 31, 2024. IHT reported a strong annual improvement of results in Fiscal Year 2023, (February 1, 2022, to January 31, 2023), with Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interests doubling, increasing by 106%, to $523,171 as compared to $254,144. Earnings Per Share based on this Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interest amount was $0.06, also more than doubling, up $0.03 from the prior year of $0.03. Total Revenues increased to approximately $7.5 million, which is an approximate increase of 11% from the same prior Fiscal Year total of $6.7 million. Consolidated Net Income before non-cash depreciation expense was $1,439,437 for the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023. IHT hotel operations have contributed to a solid start in the 2024 Fiscal First Half (February 1, 2023, through July 31, 2023), with both the Tucson Hotel and Albuquerque Hotel achieving record results during current Fiscal Year. These are all positive signs for InnSuites, as progress continues heading in the right direction as the Travel Industry, and InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) specifically, continue to rebound and thrive.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
6 Months Ended
Jul. 31, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
USE OF ESTIMATES

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The Trust’s operations are affected by numerous factors, including the economy, inflation, virus/pandemic, competition in the hotel industry and the effect of the economy on the travel and hospitality industries. The Trust cannot predict if any of the above items will have a significant impact in the future, nor can it predict what impact, if any, the occurrence of these or other events might have on the Trust’s operations and cash flows. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to, the estimated useful lives of long-lived assets and recoverability of long-lived assets and the fair values of the long-lived assets.

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Furniture, fixtures, building and improvements and hotel properties are stated at cost, except for land, and depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated lives ranging up to 40 years for buildings and improvements, and 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment.

 

Land is an indefinite-lived asset. The Trust tests its land for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicates an impairment may have occurred, by comparing its carrying value to its implied fair value.

 

For tax purposes the Trust takes advantage of accelerated depreciation methods (MACRS) for new capital additions and improvements to its Hotels.

 

Management applies guidance ASC 360-10-35, to determine when it is required to test an asset for recoverability of its carrying value and whether, or not, an impairment exists. Under ASC 360-10-35, the Trust is required to test a long-lived asset for impairment when there is an indicator of impairment. Impairment indicators may include, but are not limited to, a drop in the performance of a long-lived asset, a decline in the hospitality industry or a decline in the economy. If an indicator of potential impairment is present, then an assessment is performed of whether the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows over its estimated remaining life.

 

If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows over the asset’s estimated remaining life are greater than the asset’s carrying value, no impairment is recognized; however, if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, then the Trust would recognize an impairment expense to the extent the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, if any. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. Long-lived assets evaluated for impairment are analyzed on a property-specific basis independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. Evaluation of future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including certain economic conditions, and committed future bookings. Management has determined that no further impairment is required of long-lived assets for the fiscal period ended July 31, 2023.

 

CASH

CASH

 

The Trust believes it places its cash only with high credit quality financial institutions, although these balances periodically exceed federally insured limits.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Hotel and Operations

 

Revenues are primarily derived from the sources below and are recognized as services are rendered and when collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received in advance of revenue recognition are considered deferred liabilities and are generally not significant.

 

 

Revenues primarily consist of room rentals, food and beverage sales, management and trademark fees and other miscellaneous revenues from our properties. Revenues are recorded when rooms are occupied and when food and beverage sales are delivered. Management and trademark fees include a monthly accounting fee and a percentage of hotel room revenues for managing the daily operations of the Hotels.

 

Each room night consumed by a guest with a cancellable reservation represents a contract whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night at an agreed upon price. For cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue as each performance obligation (i.e., each room night) is met. Such contract is renewed if the guest continues their stay. For room nights consumed by a guest with a non-cancellable reservation, the entire reservation period represents the contract term whereby the Trust has a performance obligation to provide the room night or nights at an agreed upon price. For non-cancellable reservations, the Trust recognizes revenue over the term of the performance period (i.e., the reservation period) as room nights are consumed. For these reservations, the room rate is typically fixed over the reservation period. The Trust uses an output method based on performance completed to date (i.e., room nights consumed) to determine the amount of revenue it recognizes on a daily basis if the length of a non-cancellable reservation exceeds one night since consumption of room nights indicates when services are transferred to the guest. In certain instances, variable consideration may exist with respect to the transaction price, such as discounts, coupons and price concessions made upon guest checkout.

 

In evaluating its performance obligation, the Trust bundles the obligation to provide the guest the room itself with other obligations (such as free Wi-Fi, complimentary breakfast, and high speed internet), as the other obligations are not distinct and separable because the guest cannot benefit from the additional amenities without the consumed room night. The Trust’s obligation to provide the additional items or services is not separately identifiable from the fundamental contractual obligation (i.e., providing the room and its contents). The Trust has no performance obligations once a guest’s stay is complete.

 

We are required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. We have a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. We do not retain these taxes and fees and, therefore, they are not included in revenues. We record a liability when the amounts are collected and relieve the liability when payments are made to the applicable taxing authority or other appropriate governmental agency.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

 

Accounts receivable are derived from guest stays and other reservations at the Hotels. Accounts receivable are carried at original amounts billed less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding amounts on a quarterly basis. Management generally records an allowance for doubtful accounts for 50% of balances over 90 days due and 100% of balances over 120 days due. Accounts receivable are written off when collection efforts have been exhausted and they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries, if any, of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Trust does not charge interest on accounts receivable balances and these receivables are unsecured. There is $0 in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and the Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2023.

 

 

LEASE ACCOUNTING

LEASE ACCOUNTING

 

The Trust determines, at the inception of a contract, if the arrangement is a lease and whether it meets the classification criteria for a finance or operating lease. Right of Use (ROU), assets represent the Trust’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Trust’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets also include any advance lease payments and exclude lease incentives. As most of the Trust’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Trust uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Finance lease agreements generally include an interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating fixed lease expense and finance lease depreciation expense are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term (see Note 14).

 

TRUSTEE STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

TRUSTEE STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Trust has an employee equity incentive plan, which is described more fully in Note 15 - “Share-Based Payments.” The three independent members of the Board of Trustees each earn 9,000 IHT fully paid restricted Shares per year. All shares vest over one year from date of grant. The Trust has paid the annual fees due to its Trustees by issuing Shares of Beneficial Interest out of its authorized but unissued Shares. Upon issuance, the Trust recognizes the shares as outstanding. The Trust recognizes expense related to the issuance based on the fair value of the shares upon the date of the restricted share grant and amortizes the expense equally over the period during which the shares vest to the Trustees. From time to time, the Trustees and key employees receive one-time fully paid restricted share grants, as well.

 

TREASURY STOCK

TREASURY STOCK

 

Treasury stock is carried at cost, including any brokerage commissions paid to repurchase the shares. Any shares issued from treasury stock are removed at cost, with the difference between cost and fair value at the time of issuance recorded against Shares of Beneficial Interest. InnSuites Hospitality Trust continues its Company Stock Buyback Plan allowed within the NYSE American limitations.

 

NET INCOME PER SHARE

NET INCOME PER SHARE

 

Basic and diluted net income per Share of Beneficial Interest is computed based on the weighted-average number of Shares of Beneficial Interest and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities are limited to the Class A and Class B units of the Partnership, which are convertible into 3,174,041 Shares of the Beneficial Interest, as discussed in Note 1.

 

 

For the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, there were Class A and Class B Partnership units outstanding, which are convertible into Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion at the beginning of each period, the aggregate weighted-average of these Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,174,041 in addition to the basic shares outstanding for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These Shares of Beneficial Interest issuable upon conversion of the Class A and Class B Partnership units were anti-dilutive during the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 and are excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for those periods.

 

ADVERTISING COSTS

ADVERTISING COSTS

 

Amounts incurred for advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for operations totaled approximately $83,000 and $62,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively, and $165,000 and $171,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Trust to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Management’s assessment of the Trust’s credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is low as cash and cash equivalents are held in financial institutions believed to be credit worthy. The Trust limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with various major financial institutions and invests only in short-term obligations.

 

While the Trust is exposed to credit losses due to the non-performance of its counterparties, the Trust considers the risk of this remote. The Trust estimates its maximum credit risk for accounts receivable at the amount recorded on the balance sheet.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

For disclosure purposes, fair value is determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy levels are as follows:

 

  Level 1 – Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured.
     
  Level 2 – Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and / or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are level 2 valuation techniques.
     
  Level 3 – Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect a company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

 

The Trust has assets that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including stock and warrants in a 3rd party private company on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Due to their short maturities, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value. The fair value of mortgage notes payable, notes payable to banks and notes and advances payable to related parties is estimated by using the current rates which would be available for similar loans having the same remaining maturities and are based on level 3 inputs.

 

CONVERTIBLE NOTE RECEIVABLE, COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS IN UNIGEN POWER, INC.

CONVERTIBLE NOTE RECEIVABLE, COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS IN UNIGEN POWER, INC.

 

On December 16, 2019 the Trust entered into a Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement with UniGen Power Inc. (“UniGen”).

 

The Trust purchased secured convertible debentures (“Debentures”) in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (the “Loan Amount”) at an annual interest rate of 6% (approximately $15,000 per quarter). The Debentures are convertible into 1,000,000 Class A shares of UniGen Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of $1.00 per share.

 

UniGen issued the Trust common stock purchase warrants (the “Debenture Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Debenture Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

UniGen also issued the Trust additional common stock purchase warrants (“Additional Warrants”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of UniGen Class A Common Stock. The Additional Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $2.25 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

IHT may fund at IHT’s sole discretion a $500,000 line of credit at the option of IHT convertible into 500,000 shares of UniGen stock at $1 per share.

 

The total of all stock ownership upon conversion of the note receivable is 1 million shares and if all stock warrants available are exercised, these could total approximately 3 million UniGen shares, which amounts to approximately 25% of fully diluted UniGen equity.

 

On the Trust’s balance sheet, the investment of the $1,000,000 consists of approximately $700,000 in note receivables and approximately $300,000 as the fair value of the warrant issued with the Trust’s investment in UniGen. The value of the premium related to the fair value of the warrants will accrete over the life of the debentures.

 

The value of the warrants issued with the note receivable was based on Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following inputs:

 

Debenture Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $1.00 
Time to maturity (years)   2.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

Additional Warrants

 

Type of option  Call option 
Stock price  $2.25 
Exercise (Strike) price  $2.25 
Time to maturity (years)   3.0 
Annualized risk-free rate   1.630%
Annualized volatility   27.43%

 

 

If all notes are converted and all available but not outstanding warrants exercised, IHT could hold up to approximately 25% of UniGen fully diluted equity ownership. Subsequent to January 31, 2023, no activity has occurred with this line of credit and thus no draws have been taken.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $60,000 of interest income to exercise 60,000 warrants for 60,000 shares of common stock in UniGen. Additionally, the Trust exercised 161,250 warrants for a total of $255,000 for 161,250 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

During the Second Fiscal Quarter (May 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023), three months ended July 31, 2023, the Trust reinvested $15,000 of interest income to exercise 15,000 warrants for 15,000 shares of common stock in UniGen.

 

As of July 31, 2023, IHT held 525,000 common shares of UniGen, purchased at a cost of $618,750. Management believes recording the investment at cost approximates fair value since there have been no significant changes in the operations of UniGen and UniGen’s projects are still in the R&D phase.

 

UniGen Power Inc. management reports the following progress of the InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) efficient clean energy innovation diversification investment:

 

1. Despite travel and supply chain disruptions including “reshoring” of a portion of UniGen parts, UniGen management continues to make progress on completing the UPI 1000TA first prototype to be assembled within the next year. In early 2023, with prototype engineering complete, UniGen paused engineering to raise additional capital with strong initial interest.

 

2. Due to global travel and economic events, an increasingly unreliable American power grid, increasing demand for electric vehicles, inflation, and supply chain pressures, the UniGen marketing team estimates product’s market has grown, and has increased the MSP planned power plant price. The initial order for thirty units has been reaffirmed.

 

3. UniGen is currently seeking an investor for its next round of financing, to complete the prototype to get assembled, and then ready for testing.

 

James Wirth (President) and Marc Berg (Executive Vice President) both lack significant control. They have two of the seven Board of Directors seats or 28% and were elected in December 2019 to serve on the board of UNIGEN to closely monitor and assist in the success of this potentially power industry disruptive relatively clean energy generation innovation.

 

The Trust has valued UniGen investment as a level 3 fair value measurement, for the following reasons: The investment does not qualify for level 1 since there are no identical actively traded instruments or level 2 identical or similar unobservable markets.
