SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note
1. Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting p
rincipl
es for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March
31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 2009. For further information, refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Regency
Affiliates, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2008.
Principles
of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, Regency Power, Inc. and Rustic
Crafts International, Inc. ("Rustic Crafts"), its 75% owned subsidiary, Iron
Mountain Resources, Inc. ("IMR"), and its 80% owned subsidiary,
National Resource Development Corporation ("NRDC"). All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Reclassifications
– Certain items in the financial statements for 2008 have been reclassified to
conform with the current 2009 period presentation. Such
reclassification had no effect on net income.
Note
2. Related Party Transactions
In
December 2005, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Rustic Crafts, entered
into a stipulation of settlement with RCI Wood Products (“RCI”) regarding
outstanding indebtedness with RCI. Under the terms of this settlement, RCI
agreed to pay to Rustic Crafts the sum of $125,000 with interest at six and
one-half percent per annum, payable in thirty-five (35) monthly installments of
$1,088 each, commencing in January 2006. No payments have been
received since March 2006. RCI defaulted on the note in April
2006. The Company had initiated an action for collection against RCI
and personal guarantor of the note. In June 2008, the Company sold
the above mentioned notes to a collection agency for $1,000 plus 50% of any
amounts received, less expenses of up to $2,500. To date, the Company
has received $1,000 from the collection agency and the collection agency has not
received any proceeds on the notes.
During
the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company paid $31,500 in each
quarter pursuant to a license agreement entered into with Royalty Management,
Inc. (“Royalty”), an entity wholly owned by Laurence Levy, the Company’s
President and Chief Executive Officer, for office space, office supplies and
services.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note
3. Uncertainties and Contingencies
The
Company and Security Land and Development Company Limited Partnership (“Security
Land”) are in disagreement as to the manner in which taxable income of Security
Land is to be allocated pursuant to the partnership agreement and applicable
law, and for years 2004 through 2008, the Company reported to the Internal
Revenue Service (the “IRS”) taxable income (loss) from Security Land in a manner
the Company believes is proper, but which is different than the manner reported
by Security Land. This disagreement has not been resolved. The discrepancy may
cause the Company's tax returns to be audited by the IRS. The Company
believes that the outcome of any IRS examination will not materially affect the
financial statements of the Company as net operating losses are available to
offset any additional income not reported.
In July
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by
prescribing a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before
a financial statement benefit is recognized. The minimum threshold is defined in
FIN 48 as a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon
examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any
related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of
benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. FIN 48 must be applied to all existing tax positions upon
initial adoption. The cumulative effect of applying FIN 48 at adoption, if any,
is to be reported as an adjustment to opening retained earnings for the year of
adoption. FIN 48 was effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31,
2007 and no cumulative effects are reported through March 31, 2009.
Note
4. Subsequent Events
In April
2009, the Company issued 50,000 options to purchase 50,000 shares of its common
stock to an officer of the Company. The stock options expire on April 30, 2019
and have an exercise price of $2.90 per share.
On June
15, 2009, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) entered
an order approving a stipulation of settlement (the “Settlement”) of the class
action lawsuit (the “Action”) filed in the Court and captioned Edward E. Gatz,
et al. v. William R. Ponsoldt, Sr., et al., (C.A. No. 174-CC). The period
for appeal of the Settlement expired on July 15, 2009.
The terms
of the Settlement are in all material respects identical to the terms of the
Memorandum of Understanding entered into among the parties to the Action on
April 28, 2008. Pursuant to the Settlement, on July 17, 2009,
the Company paid $3,045,874.72 into escrow for the benefit
of the plaintiff class. The plaintiff class is defined in the Settlement
as all record and beneficial owners of Company common stock on October 17, 2002,
including any and all of their respective successors in interest, predecessors,
representatives, trustees, executors, administrators, heirs, immediate and
remote, and any person or entity acting for or on behalf of, or claiming under
any of them, and each of them. The plaintiff class does not include
the defendants, members of their families, affiliates of the defendants, and
those individuals or entities who solely held securities convertible into
Company common stock or options to purchase Company common stock. The
Company made the settlement payment pursuant to its obligation to indemnify
the defendants who are former directors of the Company. In connection with
the Settlement, and with the assistance of independent counsel, the Company
determined that indemnification of its former directors is appropriate under
Delaware law. The Settlement expressly provides that the
defendants admit no wrongdoing but have agreed to the Settlement to
eliminate the uncertainty, distraction, burden and expense of further
litigation.
Regency’s
insurance carrier has denied coverage with respect to the claims
contained in the Action on the basis of the "insured vs. insured" exclusion
since one of the plaintiffs, Donald D. Graham, was previously a director
of the Company.
ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
Certain
statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, but not
limited to those regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy,
acquisition strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations and
any other statements that are not historical facts constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of federal securities laws and the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that
could cause the actual results, performance or achievements expressed or implied
by such forward-looking statements to differ materially from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in
these forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that
the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized
or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected effect on
its business or operations. These forward-looking statements are made based on
management's expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the
Company and are subject to uncertainties and factors (including, but not limited
to, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A – Risk
Factors) which are difficult to predict and, in many instances, are beyond the
control of the Company.
The
following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company’s
(unaudited) consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item
1 of this report.
GENERAL
We are
committed to enhancing the value of our common stock by seeking opportunities to
monetize certain existing assets and by seeking new business opportunities on an
opportunistic basis. No assurance can be given that we will be
successful identifying or securing a desirable business opportunity, and no
assurance can be given that any such opportunity that is identified and secured
will produce favorable results for us and our stockholders.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On March
31, 2009, we had current assets of $10,477,037 and stockholders' equity of
$19,727,855. On March 31, 2009, we had $10,066,371 in cash and marketable
securities, total assets of $23,007,992 and total current liabilities of
$3,280,137.
The most
significant sources of cash are our equity investment in MESC Capital LLC ("MESC
Capital") and interest and dividends earned from existing cash and cash
equivalents. In the event that cash flows from operating activities are not
sufficient, we could liquidate marketable securities as necessary. We believe
our cash flow from operations and existing cash and cash equivalents will be
adequate to satisfy our cash needs for the next twelve months.
The most
significant uses of cash are for employee compensation and professional fees for
legal and accounting services.
Currently,
there are no plans for external financing of current operations or
holdings.
The
Company and Security Land are in disagreement as to the manner in which taxable
income of Security Land is to be allocated pursuant to the partnership agreement
and applicable law, and for years 2004 through 2008, the Company reported to the
IRS taxable income (loss) from Security Land in a manner the Company believes is
proper, but which is different than the manner reported by Security Land. This
disagreement has not been resolved. The discrepancy may cause the Company's tax
returns to be audited by the IRS. The Company believes that the
outcome of any IRS examination will not materially affect the financial
statements of the Company as net operating losses are available to offset any
additional income not reported.
On
September 30, 2002, our subsidiary, Rustic Crafts International, Inc. ("Rustic
Crafts") sold all of its operating assets subject to the assumption of certain
of its liabilities. Prior to the sale, Rustic Crafts had established a
$1,000,000 line of credit with PNC Bank which was guaranteed by the Company and
expired on May 18, 2002. In conjunction with the Rustic Crafts asset sale,
Rustic Crafts' indebtedness under the line of credit together with its $960,000
mortgage loan from PNC Bank and certain other indebtedness to PNC Bank was
restructured to replace such indebtedness with five notes totaling $2,432,782
and have a ten year amortization schedule. The notes bear interest at the
blended rate of 10.8% per annum. As part of the PNC Bank debt restructuring,
Rustic Crafts was required to pay down the outstanding loan balance with
$200,000 of the purchase price in the Rustic Crafts asset sale, and was required
to make a $540,000 payment in December 2002. A $40,000 payment was made to PNC
Bank in December 2002, but Rustic Crafts and the Company failed to make the
balance of the December 2002 payment. Accordingly, the PNC Bank debt was
subsequently modified to provide for the payment of the remaining $500,000
payment on or before June 30, 2003. On June 30, 2003, we paid all outstanding
principal and interest due to PNC Bank, in satisfaction of the above described
obligations. In December 2005, Rustic Crafts agreed to accept a $125,000 note
from RCI Wood Products, Inc ("RCI") as a restructuring of the above named
obligation. The note bears an interest rate of 6.5% and calls for payments of
$1,088 per month until December 2008 at which time the balance will be due and
payable. Since the quarter ended March 31, 2006, Rustic Crafts has not received
any payments under this obligation. In April 2006, RCI defaulted on the
note. We have initiated an action for collection against RCI and the
personal guarantor of the note. In June 2008, we sold the above
mentioned notes to a collection agency for $1,000 plus 50% of any amounts
received, less expenses of up to $2,500. To date, we have received $1,000 from
the collection agency and the collection agency has not received any proceeds on
the notes.
In
connection with the redemption of our common stock owned by Statesman Inc.
("Statesman"), we acquired from Statesman a three-year option to purchase the
20% stock interest in NRDC held by Statesman. To exercise the option, we were
required to deliver to Statesman for cancellation a $2,440,000 note issued to us
by Statesman in October 2001. As consideration for the option, we (i) paid
Statesman $250,000, (ii) amended the note and related pledge agreement to limit
our recourse under the note and (iii) transferred to Statesman certain office
furniture and equipment that we owned. This option expired in October 2005. As
part of the redemption, we also entered into an agreement with Statesman
providing for (i) an amendment to the Certificate of Designations of the Series
C Preferred Stock for the Company and (ii) certain limitations on the ability of
Statesman to issue or transfer shares or other beneficial interests in Statesman
or to sell, transfer, purchase or acquire any capital stock of the Company, in
each case without first receiving our written confirmation that such issuance or
transfer would not adversely affect our ability to utilize our tax loss
carryforwards. We paid Statesman an aggregate amount of $2,730,000 in
consideration of the foregoing agreements. As of March 31, 2009, through
the date of this Form 10-Q, we have not collected the $2,440,000 note and
accrued interest of approximately $644,000 due from Statesman. We have sent
demand and default notices to Statesman but we have not received a response to
date. Per the terms of the Agreement, upon event of default, overdue principal
and overdue interest will bear interest, payable upon demand, at a rate of
twelve percent (12%) per annum, and the pledged securities may be transferred
into our name, or sold for proceeds to satisfy the obligation and collection
costs incurred. We have currently reserved the receivable balance in full while
we continue our collection efforts. The reserve adjustment included a charge to
impairment of loans as other expense in the 2006 statement of operations, and an
allowance against the note within equity.
Filing
of Going Private Proxy Statement
On
December 14, 2005, we filed with the SEC a preliminary Schedule 13E-3
Transaction Statement with respect to a going private transaction and a
preliminary Schedule 14A Proxy Statement soliciting stockholders to vote on
amending our certificate of incorporation to provide for a 1-for-100 reverse
stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) followed immediately by a 50-for-1
forward stock split of our common stock (the “Forward Stock Split”), which would
result in the reduction of the number of common stockholders of record of the
Company to fewer than 300. This will permit us to discontinue the filing of
annual and periodic reports and other filings with the SEC. Once the
Schedule 13E-3 Transaction Statement and Schedule 14A Proxy Statement are
approved in a definitive form by the SEC, we will mail copies to stockholders.
We currently intend to effect the Reverse Stock Split and Forward Stock Split as
soon as possible after such distribution.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Three
months ended March 31, 2009 compared to three months ended March 31,
2008:
No
revenue was generated by the Company in these periods.
General
and administrative expenses decreased by $46,778 or 16.7% to $234,031 in the
first quarter of 2009 compared to $280,809 in the comparable period of 2008
primarily due to a decrease in professional fees of $93,657, partially
offset by an increase in employee compensation and benefits, and office supply
expenses of $46,879.
Income
from equity investment in partnerships decreased by $244,614 in the three months
ended March 31, 2009, 35.6% lower than the comparable period
in 2008. Our investment in MESC Capital produced income of
approximately $88,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 as compared to a net
income of approximately $250,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 due to
increased expenses associated with repairs and maintenance that MESC Capital
performed in 2009. Our investment in Security Land returned income of
approximately $355,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2009, a decline from
$438,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. Such decline was
primarily due to an increase in repair and maintenance costs incurred by
Security Land in 2009.
Net
income decreased by $266,699 in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 as compared to
the comparable period in 2008, or 58.2%, primarily due to the decrease in income
from equity investment in partnerships.
Our
Stockholders'
Equity at March 31, 2009 was $19,727,855 as compared to $19,536,251 at December
31, 2008, an increase of $191,604 which is due to our net income during the
quarter ended March 31, 2009.
Impact
of Inflation
Although
we have not attempted to calculate the effect of inflation, management does not
believe inflation has had a material effect on the Company’s results of
operations.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We have
not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Accounting
estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those considered most
critical to understanding the financial statements because they involve
significant judgments and uncertainties. For these estimates, we caution that
future events may not develop as forecast, and that the best estimates often
require adjustment.
Investments
- These assets
are reviewed for impairment based on criteria that include the extension which
cost exceeds market value, the duration of that decline, and the Company's
ability to hold to recovery. Market research and analysis is performed to
identify potential impairments on a regular basis.
Note Receivable
- These
assets are reviewed for collectibility on an ongoing basis. Any notes deemed
uncollectible have been offset by an allowance and related accrued interest has
been charged to expense.
Income Taxes
- As stated
above, assumptions have been made that taxable income that may result from a
possible IRS examination will be offset by existing net operating losses
generated by the Company from prior periods. Other assumptions have been made
that these net operating losses will not be limited or disallowed, which could
affect the results of operations in future periods.
The
Company has significant net operating losses available to offset future taxable
income. The losses have been converted into deferred tax assets using an
estimated 34% tax rate. These deferred tax assets have been offset with a
valuation allowance established to reduce the net deferred tax asset to the
amount that will more likely than not be realized. This reduction is necessary
due to uncertainty of the Company's ability to utilize the net operating loss
and tax credit carry forwards before they expire.

Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls

1A. RISK FACTORS
Part I,
Item 1A — “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2008, describes important factors that could materially
affect our business, financial condition and/or future results and cause our
operating results to differ materially from those indicated, projected or

elsewhere by management from time to time. The risks described in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company; additional risks
and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be
immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition and/or operating results and cause our operating results to differ
materially from those indicated, projected or implied by forward-looking
statements made in this Quarterly Report or presented elsewhere by management
from time to time.
There
have been no material changes with respect to the risk factors previously
disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
