NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2023
(UNAUDITED)
Note A — Organization and Business Operations
Mobile Infrastructure Corporation (formerly known as Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III or “FWAC”) is a Maryland corporation. The Company focuses on acquiring, owning and leasing parking facilities and related infrastructure, including parking lots, parking garages and other parking structures throughout the United States. The Company targets both parking garage and surface lot properties primarily in the top 50 U.S. Metropolitan Statistical Areas, with proximity to key demand drivers, such as commerce, events and venues, government and institutions, hospitality and multifamily central business districts. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned
FWAC was a blank check, Cayman Islands exempted company, incorporated on February 19, 2021 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more business entities.
On August 25, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), we consummated the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger”), as amended by the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among FWAC, Queen Merger Corp. I, a Maryland corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of FWAC, and Legacy MIC. As part of the Merger, FWAC was converted to a Maryland corporation and changed its name to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation. Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “MIC,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the closing of the Merger and to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation (f/k/a Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III) and its consolidated subsidiaries following the closing of the Merger, as the context requires. References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Legacy MIC” refer to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the closing of the Merger. References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “FWAC” refer to Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III.
In connection with the Merger, Mobile Infra Operating Partnership, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), converted from a Maryland limited partnership to a Delaware limited liability company, Mobile Infra Operating Company, LLC (following the conversion, the “Operating Company”). In connection with the conversion, each outstanding unit of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership was converted automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into an equal number of identical membership units of the Operating Company. The Company is a member of the Operating Company and owns substantially all of its assets and conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Company. The Operating Company is managed by a board of directors, one appointed by the Company and one appointed by the other members of the Operating Company. Currently, the two directors of the Operating Company are Manuel Chavez, III, our Chief Executive Officer and a director, and Stephanie Hogue, our President, Chief Financial Officer and a director. The Company owns approximately
The Company is publicly traded on the NYSE American under the ticker “BEEP.” As a result of the Merger:
| ● | each then issued and outstanding Class A Share and Class B Share of FWAC was converted, on a one-for- |
| ● | each then issued and outstanding share of Legacy MIC common stock was converted into |
| ● | each share of Legacy MIC Series |
| ● | the outstanding common stock warrant of Legacy MIC to purchase |
Additionally, on June 15, 2023, HS3, Harvest Small Cap Partners, L.P. and Harvest Small Cap Partners Master, Ltd., entities controlled by Mr. Osher, and Bombe-MIC Pref, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Chavez and of which Ms. Hogue is a member, (collectively, the “Preferred PIPE Investors”), each entered into a Preferred Subscription Agreement with FWAC pursuant to which, among other things, the Preferred PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and FWAC agreed to issue and sell to the Preferred PIPE Investors, a total of
Accounting Treatment of the Merger and Retroactive Equity Application
Legacy MIC determined that it was the accounting acquirer in the Merger based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The identification of Legacy MIC as the accounting acquirer was based primarily on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:
| ● | the business affairs of the Company are controlled by a board of directors consisting of eight individuals, seven of whom were board members of Legacy MIC and one designated by FWAC; |
| ● | the management of the Company is led by Legacy MIC’s Chief Executive Officer, Manuel Chavez, III, and Chief Financial Officer, Stephanie Hogue; and |
| ● | Legacy MIC was significantly larger than FWAC in terms of revenue, total assets (excluding cash) and employees. |
Under this method of accounting, FWAC was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of Legacy MIC issuing stock for the net assets of FWAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of FWAC were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Merger are those of Legacy MIC.
In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the equity structure has been retroactively restated in all comparative periods up to the Closing Date, to reflect the equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock based on the exchange ratio of
Note B — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC, and in conjunction with rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to give a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. There were no significant changes to our significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For a full summary of our accounting policies, refer to Legacy MIC’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K as originally filed with the SEC on March 22, 2023.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has incurred net losses since its inception and anticipates net losses in the near future, and the Company has approximately $
In response, the Company is currently pursuing extensions and amendments on the maturing debt. However, our plan is subject to market conditions and not within our control. As a result, management’s plans cannot be considered probable and thus do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Company (previously, the Operating Partnership), each of their wholly owned subsidiaries, and all other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. For entities that meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), the Company consolidates those entities when the Company is the primary beneficiary of the entity. The Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary when it possesses both the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company continually evaluates whether it qualifies as the primary beneficiary and reconsiders its determination of whether an entity is a VIE upon reconsideration events. All intercompany activity is eliminated in consolidation.
Noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the portion of equity that we do not own in the entities we consolidate. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interest in our Consolidated Statements of Operations represents our partners’ share of net income or loss that is generally allocated on a pro-rata basis based on ownership percentage.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding stock-based compensation, equity valuations, asset impairment and purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, as applicable.
Concentration
The Company had
In addition, the Company had concentrations in Cincinnati (
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022,
Acquisitions
All assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition of real estate accounted for as a business combination are measured at their acquisition date fair values. For acquisitions of real estate accounted for as an asset acquisition, the fair value of consideration transferred by the Company (including transaction costs) is allocated to all assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis.
In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company will utilize several sources, including independent third-party valuations that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company will also consider information obtained about each property as a result of the Company’s pre-acquisition due diligence, as well as subsequent marketing and leasing activities, in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.
The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their relative fair values. Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Estimates of value are made using customary methods, including data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Amounts allocated to land, land improvements, buildings and fixtures are based on valuations performed by independent third parties or on the Company’s analysis of comparable properties in the Company’s portfolio. Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships, as applicable. The aggregate value of intangible assets related to in-place leases is primarily the difference between the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and the property valued as if vacant. Factors considered by the Company in its analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company will include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up period. Estimates of costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses are also utilized.
The value of lease intangibles is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations over the remaining term of the respective lease. If a tenant terminates its lease with us, the unamortized portion of any lease intangible is recognized over the shortened lease term.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
On a quarterly basis, we employ a multi-step approach to assess our real estate assets for possible impairment and record any impairment charges identified. The first step is the identification of potential triggering events, such as declines in net operating income (“NOI”) and performance compared to internal forecasts. If the results of this first step indicate a triggering event for a property, we proceed to the second step, utilizing an undiscounted cash flow model to identify potential impairment. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the net book value of the property as of the balance sheet date, we record an impairment charge based on the fair value determined in the third step. In performing the third step, we utilize market data such as capitalization rates and sales price per stall on comparable recent real estate transactions to estimate the fair value of the real estate assets. We also utilize expected net sales proceeds to estimate the fair value of any centers that are actively being marketed for sale.
See Note M for additional discussion regarding impairment of long-lived assets.
Immaterial Correction
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company identified certain errors impacting our first and second quarter filings of 2022. A summary of such errors is outlined in the table below and includes errors related to the cut-off and classification of accruals, cash, prepaids and expenses, accounting and record keeping for tenant billings and deposits, accounting related to interest expense, elimination of intercompany receivables and payables, and corrections related to the calculation of noncontrolling interest.

Reportable Segments
Our principal business is the ownership and operation of parking facilities. We do not distinguish our principal business, or group our operations, by geography or size for purposes of measuring performance. Accordingly, we have presented our results as a single reportable segment.
Equity Compensation
Equity compensation is based on the grant date fair value of the equity awards and is recognized as general and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations over the requisite service or performance period. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred. Certain equity awards are subject to vesting based upon the satisfaction of various service, market, or performance conditions.

Note J - Earnings Per Share
Basic and diluted loss per weighted average common share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s common stockholders, including any participating securities, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. The Company includes the effect of participating securities in basic and diluted earnings per share computations using the two-class method of allocating distributed and undistributed earnings when the two-class method is more dilutive than the treasury stock method. Outstanding warrants were antidilutive as a result of the net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and therefore were excluded from the dilutive calculation. The Company includes unvested PUs as contingently issuable shares in the computation of diluted EPS once the market criteria is met, assuming that the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period.

As a result, the Company consolidates its investment in MVP St. Louis and MVP St. Louis Cardinal Lot Master Tenant, LLC, which had total assets of approximately $
Note L - Income Taxes
Legacy MIC previously elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and operated in a manner that allowed Legacy MIC to qualify as a REIT through December 31, 2019. As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, Legacy MIC earned management income in lieu of lease income from a number of distressed tenants, which did not constitute qualifying REIT income for purposes of the annual REIT gross income tests, and, as a result, Legacy MIC was not in compliance with the annual REIT income tests for the year ended December 31, 2020. Accordingly, Legacy MIC did not qualify for taxation as a REIT in 2020 and the Company continues to be taxed as a C corporation. As a C corporation, the Company is subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates.
A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was historically provided each year since the Company believed that as a REIT it was more likely than not that it would not realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets. As a taxable C Corporation, the Company has evaluated its deferred tax assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which consist primarily of net operating losses and its investment in the Operating Company. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended September 30, 2023. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth. Despite substantial growth in property-level operations, the Company has continued to generate a net loss and as such the Company has determined that it will continue to record a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. A change in circumstances may cause the Company to change its judgment about whether deferred tax assets should be recorded, and further whether any such assets would more likely than not be realized. The Company would generally report any change in the valuation allowance through its Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which such changes in circumstances occur.
Note M — Fair Value
A fair value measurement is based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in an orderly transaction. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable.
Level 3 – Model-derived valuations with unobservable inputs.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable. Due to their short maturities, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt (including notes payable and the Revolving Credit Facility) was derived using Level 2 inputs and approximate $
Recurring and Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Our Earn-out Shares and interest rate cap are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, while certain real estate assets and liabilities are measured and recognized at fair value as needed. Fair value measurements that occurred as of and during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 were as follows (in thousands):

We estimate the fair value of each tranche of shares separately using a Monte Carlo simulation. These estimates require us to make various assumptions about the risk-free rate, expected volatility for each tranche of the Earn-Out Shares, and other items that are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Because we are a newly-listed company with limited share activity, we were required to exercise judgment in estimating expected volatility (

| Change in fair value recognized in earnings | | |
| Balance as of September 30, 2023 | $ |
Interest Rate Cap
Our interest rate cap is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuation is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair value of the interest rate cap is determined using the market standard methodology of valuing the expected discounted future fixed cash receipts. The variable cash or receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. We evaluated the need for credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements, but believe these impacts are not material. Because we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives are observable, we believe our derivative valuation is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Impairment
Our real estate assets are measured and recognized at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when we determine an impairment has occurred. To estimate fair value we may use internally developed valuation models or independent third-parties where available. In either case, the fair value of real estate may be based on a number of approaches including the income capitalization approach, sales comparable approach or discounted cash flow approach. We utilize market data such as capitalization rates and sales price per stall on comparable recent real estate transactions to estimate the fair value of the real estate assets. We also utilize expected net sales proceeds to estimate the fair value of any centers that are actively being marketed for sale. Because we use estimates and assumptions regarding an assets’ future performance and cash flows as well as market conditions, capitalization rates and discount rates, we determined the impaired assets would fall under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we impaired $

The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon the Company’s current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs, which involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:
| ● |
increased fuel prices may adversely affect our operating environment and costs; |
|

our executive officers and certain of our directors face or may face conflicts of interest related to their positions and interests in our affiliates, which could hinder our ability to implement our business strategy and generate returns to investors; |
| ● |
estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at a similar rate, if at all; |

| ● | increasing interest rates may adversely affect us; | |
| ● | our independent auditor included an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a “going concern” in its report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022; we may not have sufficient capital as and when needed; | |

Overview
Mobile Infrastructure Corporation (formerly known as Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III or “FWAC”) is a Maryland corporation. The Company focuses on acquiring, owning and leasing parking facilities and related infrastructure, including parking lots, parking garages and other parking structures throughout the United States. The Company targets both parking garage and surface lot properties primarily in the top 50 U.S. Metropolitan Statistical Areas, with proximity to key demand drivers, such as commerce, events and venues, government and institutions, hospitality and multifamily central business districts. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 43 parking facilities in 21 separate markets throughout the United States, with a total of 15,676 parking spaces and approximately 5.4 million square feet. The Company also owns approximately 0.2 million square feet of retail/commercial space adjacent to its parking facilities.
FWAC was a blank check, Cayman Islands exempted company, incorporated on February 19, 2021 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more business entities.
On August 25, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), we consummated the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger"), as amended by the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among FWAC, Queen Merger Corp. I, a Maryland corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of FWAC, and Legacy MIC. As part of the Merger, FWAC was converted to a Maryland corporation and changed its name to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation. Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “MIC,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the closing of the Merger and to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation (f/k/a Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III) and its consolidated subsidiaries following the closing of the Merger, as the context requires. References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Legacy MIC” refer to Mobile Infrastructure Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the closing of the Merger. References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “FWAC” refer to Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III
In connection with the Merger, Mobile Infra Operating Partnership, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), converted from a Maryland limited partnership to a Delaware limited liability company, Mobile Infra Operating Company, LLC (following the conversion, the “Operating Company”). In connection with the conversion, each outstanding unit of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership was converted automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into an equal number of identical membership units of the Operating Company. The Company is a member of the Operating Company and owns substantially all of its assets and conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Company. The Operating Company is managed by a board of directors, one appointed by the Company and one appointed by the other members of the Operating Company. Currently, the two directors of the Operating Company are Manuel Chavez, III, our Chief Executive Officer and a director, and Stephanie Hogue, our President, Chief Financial Officer and a director. The Company owns approximately 51.8% of the common units of the Operating Company (“OP Units” or “Common Units”). Color Up, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Color Up”) and HSCP Strategic III, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“HS3”), are also members of the Operating Company and own approximately 38.9% and 9.4%, respectively, of the outstanding OP Units. Color Up is our largest stockholder and is controlled by Mr. Chavez, Ms. Hogue and, Jeffrey Osher, a director of the Company. HS3 is controlled by Mr. Osher.
The Company is publicly traded on the NYSE American under the ticker “BEEP.” As a result of the Merger:
| ● |
each then issued and outstanding Class A Share and Class B Share of FWAC was converted, on a one-for-one basis, into one share of the Company's common stock; |
| ● |
each then issued and outstanding share of Legacy MIC common stock was converted into 1.5 shares of the Company's common stock; |
| ● |
each share of Legacy MIC Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Legacy MIC Series 1 Preferred Stock”) and Legacy MIC Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Legacy MIC Series A Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding was converted into one share of Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series 1 Preferred Stock”) and Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) of the Company, as applicable; and |
| ● |
the outstanding common stock warrant of Legacy MIC to purchase 1,702,128 shares of Legacy MIC common stock at an exercise price of $11.75 per share became a warrant to purchase 2,553,192 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $7.83 per share. |
Additionally, on June 15, 2023, HS3, Harvest Small Cap Partners, L.P. and Harvest Small Cap Partners Master, Ltd., entities controlled by Mr. Osher, and Bombe-MIC Pref, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Chavez and of which Ms. Hogue is a member, (collectively, the “Preferred PIPE Investors”), each entered into a Preferred Subscription Agreement with FWAC pursuant to which, among other things, the Preferred PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and FWAC agreed to issue and sell to the Preferred PIPE Investors, a total of 46,000 shares of Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series 2 Preferred Stock”), at $1,000 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $46 million (the “Preferred PIPE Financing”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Preferred Subscription Agreement, upon the earlier of a change of control of the Company or December 31, 2023, the Series 2 Preferred Stock will convert into approximately 13,787,462 shares of our common stock inclusive of 1,253,404 shares of our common stock issuable as dividends to the Preferred PIPE Investors.
Objectives
Over the next twelve months, management of the Company will be focused predominantly on the following strategic objectives:
|
|
|
|
| • |
Working with third-party operators to move towards contracts that better align the performance of the assets with results; | |
| • |
Continue to work with third-party operators to focus on leasing of our parking facilities and improving Revenue per Available Stall ("RevPAS") of the overall portfolio; |
|
| • | Identify opportunities for accretive growth for the Company; and | |
| • |
Pursuing options for refinancing near-term debt with the goal of achieving well-laddered maturities. |
Management of the Company has continued to work closely with our tenants to evaluate the performance and ongoing capital requirements of the assets, with a view to understanding current and future demand drivers of those assets. The Company has been implementing its proprietary technology which provides real-time information on the performance of assets. Under the new lease structure, which requires tenants to pay a lower base rent (typically $500-$1,000 per month) and percentage rent equal to a designated percentage (typically 90%) of the amount by which gross revenues at the property during any lease year exceed a negotiated threshold amount ("New Lease Structure"), the Company has funded capital expenditures related to upgrades and optimization of our parking facilities, including but not limited to gate arm systems, lighting, and large capital improvements to structure and concrete. Under the New Lease Structure, our tenants are responsible for many agreed-upon expenses, which they pay utilizing the thresholds that they retain as part of the lease. As such, our shareholder may not fully realize the benefits of savings through active asset management. As our tenant-operators lease payments are calculated based on their cash collected, our revenue may be impacted by the timing of payments our tenants-operators receive from contract parkers and do not necessarily reflect the true performance of the parking facility utilization. We expect to maintain an active dialogue with our tenant-operators to resolve these issues through the end of 2023 for the betterment of the Company’s portfolio.
Investment Strategy & Criteria
Because the Company’s management team has extensive experience in the parking industry, the Company often receives off-market calls for parking facilities that are not yet being marketed for sale, as well as have early notices on properties just getting ready to be marketed. As such, the Company has a pipeline of acquisitions that is both bespoke and actionable, that the Company believes are off-market and largely unavailable to our competitors. The Company intends to continue to consolidate the industry through acquisitions, partnering with both owners and tenants, to create a meaningful pipeline and scale.
The Company’s investment strategy has historically focused primarily on acquiring, owning and leasing parking facilities, including parking lots, parking garages and other parking structures throughout the United States. The Company has historically focused primarily on investing in income-producing parking lots and garages with air rights in MSAs. In expanding the Company’s portfolio, the Company will seek geographically diverse investments that address multiple key demand drivers and demonstrate consistent consumer use that are expected to generate cash flows and provide greater predictability during periods of economic uncertainty. Such targeted investments include, but are not limited to, parking facilities near one or more of the following key demand drivers:
| • |
Commerce |
|
| • |
Events and venues |
|
| • |
Government and institutions |
|
| • |
Hospitality |
|
| • |
Multifamily central business districts |
The Company generally targets parking facilities that are near multiple key demand drivers so as not to be solely reliant on a single source of income. Parking garages in downtown cores constitute a large portion of the Company’s parking facilities as they serve multiple key demand drivers.
The Company works closely with our current tenants to understand the return to each individual market, both as the Company considers the key demand drivers of the Company’s current assets, as well as new assets that the Company may consider acquiring as part of our investment strategy. The Company’s deep relationships with key tenants help facilitate collaboration with respect to our portfolio.
The Company is focused on acquiring properties that are expected to generate cash flow, located in populated MSAs and expected to produce income within 12 months of the properties’ acquisition. The Company intends to acquire under-managed parking facilities and collaborate with its tenants to implement a tailored, value-add approach that includes fostering the implementation of identified value levers and mitigating risk exposure, while fostering local business relationships to derive market knowledge and connectivity.
In the event of a future acquisition of properties, the Company would expect the foregoing criteria to serve as guidelines; however, management and the Company’s Board of Directors may vary from these guidelines to acquire properties which they believe represent value or growth opportunities.
The Company cannot assure you that the Company will attain investment objectives or that the value of the Company’s assets will not decrease. The Company’s Board of Directors utilizes the investment policies to ensure investment decisions are in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders.
Trends and Other Factors Affecting our Business
Various trends and other factors affect or have affected the Company’s operating results, including but not limited to the general market conditions, the strength of the broader U.S. economy and the trajectory of activity of consumers with regard to their use of the parking facilities, fuel prices, inflation trends and interest rates.
Return to Work
The return to normalized movement following the COVID-19 pandemic is relatively uneven among markets and industries, which has impacted the performance of our assets, as many of the Company’s properties are located in urban centers, near government buildings, entertainment centers, or hotels. While the employment level in the United States has nearly returned to 2019 levels, many companies continue to deploy a work-from-home or hybrid remote strategy for employees. We anticipate that a hybrid work structure for traditional central business district office workers will be the normalized state going-forward. This has impacted the performance of many of our assets that have office exposure and underscores the importance of a multi-key demand driver strategy in repositioning current and/or acquiring new assets.

Total revenues
The decrease in base rental income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 is due primarily to changes in lease structure. Percentage rental income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 is also impacted by the timing of cash receipts from certain contract parkers, which was favorably offset by demand for event parking, specifically in markets with sporting events, theatres, festivals, and other gatherings.

Property operating expense
The $0.1 million decrease in property operating expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is attributable primarily to lower professional services related to engineering surveys, legal fees, and insurance costs.
General and administrative
The $1.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to non-cash compensation cost for certain executive LTIP Units granted on February 28, 2023 and the cancellation of executive LTIP Units for $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Preferred Series 2 - issuance expense
As part of accounting for the reverse capitalization, we evaluated the Series 2 Preferred Stock arrangement and determined the fair value of the Series 2 Preferred Stock at the time of the transaction of $66.7 million ($4.84 per share) exceeded the implied conversion rate based on a total of 13,787,464 shares of common stock being issued on December 31, 2023 in return for $46 million in proceeds. As a result, the excess in fair value was treated as non-cash compensation and was recorded as Preferred Series 2 issuance expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Professional fees
Professional fees decreased by approximately $0.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher utilization of professional services firms including legal and tax service providers in 2022.
Organizational, offering and other costs
On May 27, 2022, Legacy MIC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “MIT Merger Agreement”) by and between Legacy MIC and Mobile Infrastructure Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“MIT”). Pursuant to the terms of the MIT Merger Agreement, Legacy MIC would merge with and into MIT, with MIT continuing as the surviving entity resulting from the transaction. Prior to and as a condition to the merger with MIT, MIT expected to undertake an initial public offering of its common shares of beneficial interest. Also, in March 2022, Legacy MIC had entered into an agreement with MIT, requiring Legacy MIC to be allocated, bear and (where practicable) pay directly certain costs and expenses related to the merger with MIT. In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement with FWAC, the MIT Merger Agreement and the cost allocation agreement with MIT were terminated.
The $0.7 million decrease in organizational, offering and other costs during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 is due to the termination of the MIT Merger Agreement and other transactions primarily attributable to legal and accounting fees. This is partially offset by transaction costs associated with the Merger that were allocated to the 1,900,000 FWAC Class B Shares that converted to the Company’s common stock and which are subject to an earn-out structure (the “Earn-Out Shares”) under terms outlined in the Second Amended and Restated Sponsor Agreement.
Impairment of real estate assets
During the three months ended September 30, 2023 the Company recorded approximately $8.7 million of asset impairment charges related to assets impacted by delayed return-to-work trends or other reductions of demand-drivers impacting these assets.

The $0.2 million decrease in property taxes during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is attributable primarily to changes in estimated property tax assessments recognized in the first and second quarters of 2022.
Property operating expense
The $0.5 million decrease in property operating expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is attributable primarily to lower professional services related to engineering surveys, legal fees, and insurance costs.
General and administrative
The $3.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to non-cash compensation cost for performance units granted on May 27, 2022, certain executive LTIP Units granted on February 28, 2023 and the cancellation of executive LTIP Units for $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Preferred Series 2 - Issuance Expense
As part of accounting for the reverse capitalization, we evaluated the Series 2 Preferred Stock arrangement, we determined the fair value of the Series 2 Preferred Stock at the time of the transaction of $66.7 million ($4.84 per share) exceeded the implied conversion rate based on a total of 13,787,464 shares of common stock being issued on December 31, 2023 in return for $46 million in proceeds. As a result, the excess in fair value was treated as non-cash compensation and was recorded as Preferred Series 2 issuance expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Professional fees
Professional fees decreased by approximately $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower utilization of professional services firms including consulting, advisory and legal service providers.
Organizational, offering and other costs
The $3.3 million decrease in organizational, offering and other costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is due to the termination of the MIT Merger Agreement and other transactions primarily attributable to legal and accounting fees. This is partially offset by transaction costs associated with the Merger that were allocated to the Earn-Out Shares.
Impairment of real estate assets
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company recorded approximately $8.7 million of asset impairment charges related to assets impacted by delayed return-to-work trends or other reductions of demand-drivers impacting these assets.

During April 2022, the Company received notification from the SBA stating that the second-round paycheck protection program loan was forgiven in full in the amount of $328,000. The forgiveness of this loan was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the month it was forgiven.
Change in the fair value of the Earn-out liability
As part of the Merger, in August 2023 recognized a liability for Earn-Out Shares which may vest if certain hurdles are met regarding share price. Changes to the fair value during the period are based on changes in Company stock price and are reflected in earnings.
Non-GAAP Measures
Net Operating Income
Net Operating Income (“NOI”) is presented as a supplemental measure of our performance. We believe that NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations, as it highlights operating trends such as pricing and demand for our portfolio at the property level as opposed to the corporate level. NOI is calculated as total revenues less property operating expenses and property taxes. We use NOI internally in evaluating property performance, measuring property operating trends, and valuing properties in our portfolio. Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other real estate companies. NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as it does not reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income and expenses, or the level of capital expenditures necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations.
The following table presents our NOI as well as a reconciliation of NOI to Net Loss, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in our consolidated financial statements, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA reflects net income (loss) excluding the impact of the following items: interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and the provision for income taxes, for all periods presented. When applicable, Adjusted EBITDA also excludes certain recurring and non-recurring items from EBITDA, including, but not limited to gains or losses from disposition of real estate assets, impairment write-downs of depreciable property, non-cash changes in the fair value of the Earn-Out liability, merger-related charges and other expenses, gains or losses on settlements, and stock-based compensation expense.
Our use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparison with results from other companies because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels, and credit ratings. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA also exclude depreciation and amortization expense because differences in types, use, and costs of assets can result in considerable variability in depreciation and amortization expense among companies. We exclude stock-based compensation expense in all periods presented to address the considerable variability among companies in recording compensation expense because companies use stock-based payment awards differently, both in the type and quantity of awards granted. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance which allow us to compare earnings and evaluate debt leverage and fixed cost coverage.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, our principal source of funds to meet our operating expenses, pay debt service obligations and make distributions to our stockholders will be rental income from tenants at our parking facilities. We also may sell properties that we own or place mortgages on properties that we own to raise capital.
We have incurred a net loss in each of our annual periods since our inception. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, MIC incurred net losses attributable to its common stockholders of $27.9 million and as of September 30, 2023, MIC had approximately $18.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred net losses attributable to its common stockholders of $11.2 million and as of the year ended December 31, 2022 had approximately $11.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity needs will consist primarily of funds necessary for payments of indebtedness, acquisitions of assets, development of properties and capital expenditures. Existing capital expenditure activities expected to be completed in the near-term for general deferred maintenance are expected to cost approximately $0.7 million.
Company Indebtedness
On March 29, 2022, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement. During 2022, we used $73.7 million of available capacity to refinance certain of our current loans for various properties and to finance the acquisition of a parking garage in June 2022. We borrow under the Credit Agreement in U.S. dollars and expect borrowings to bear interest at a floating rate based upon a Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, benchmark rate or an alternate base rate, plus a margin of between 1.75% and 3.00%, with respect to SOFR loans, or 0.75% to 2.00%, with respect to base rate loans, based on the leverage ratio as calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by us and other guarantors. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions to borrowing, covenants and events of default, including certain covenants that limit or restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of us, the Operating Company and our other subsidiaries to sell or transfer assets, enter into a merger or consolidate with another company, create liens, make investments or acquisitions or incur certain indebtedness.
On November 17, 2022, Legacy MIC executed an amendment to the Credit Agreement which extends the maturity of the Credit Agreement to April 1, 2024 and amends certain financial covenants through the new term. In connection with this extension, Legacy MIC paid an extension fee of $375,000 (plus expenses) which was being deferred and amortized over the new term of the Credit Agreement to interest expense on the consolidated statement of operations. On the Closing Date, the Company executed the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, KeyBank and the Lenders agreed to waive certain existing events of default under the Credit Agreement, in the limited manner set forth therein, related to mandatory prepayments and certain financial covenants. Additionally, the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, among other things:
| • |
reduced the total commitment of the Lenders from $75 million to $58.7 million as of the Closing; |
|
| • |
required that the Company or the Borrower (as defined in the Second Amendment) remit $15,000,000 of the proceeds from the Preferred PIPE Investment at the Closing to pay down outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement; |
|
| • |
removed the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement); |
|
| • |
required a Borrowing Base Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 1.10 to 1.00; | |
| • |
required that the Company maintain at least $7 million in unencumbered cash, unencumbered cash equivalents, and amounts on deposit in an account containing cash collateral to be used for interest payments; | |
| • | requires the contribution of certain real property as collateral and concurrently with any sale or refinancing of that property, the Company deposit the proceeds from such sale or refinancing with KeyBank as cash collateral on the Credit Agreement; | |
| • | increased the Applicable Debt Pool Yield (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from 8.0% to 9.0%; and | |
| • | established a reserve for certain cash collateral to be used for interest payments. |
As of December 31, 2022, the Company was not in compliance with all applicable covenants in agreements governing its debt, resulting in an events of default. Subsequently, the Company entered into the Second Amendment Credit Agreement, which resulted in a waiver of all existing events of defaults. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2023, the Company is not in default under the Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, $73.7 and $58.7 million was outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s independent auditor included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a “going concern” in its report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to the Company’s inability to comply with a financial covenant under its Credit Agreement.
We have incurred net losses since our inception and anticipate net losses for the near future, and we have approximately $64.1 million of debt which will mature within one year. We do not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity to repay the maturing debt as it becomes due. These conditions and events raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In response, we are currently pursuing extensions and amendments on the maturing debt. However, our plan is subject to market conditions and not within our control. As a result, management’s plans cannot be considered probable and thus does not alleviate substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Over time, management intends to both extend and sculpt our maturity wall, so that our maturities are spread over multiple years. As of September 30, 2023, we have significant commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) debt with prohibitive defeasance terms, which will limit our ability to refinance our CMBS debt prior to the maturity date or any permitted prepayment date. As our loans approach maturity, we will assess the lowest cost, most flexible options available to us and refinance those loans accordingly. Our intent over the mid-term period is to work with lending relationships to maintain a revolver that can address upcoming maturities, should market conditions not permit us to refinance with longer-term debt.
The Company may establish capital reserves with respect to particular investments. The Company also may, but is not required to, establish reserves out of cash flow generated by investments or out of net sale proceeds in non-liquidating sale transactions. Working capital reserves are typically utilized to fund tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures. Our lenders also may require working capital reserves.
Material Cash Requirements
Our material cash requirements are associated with operating expenses and debt service obligations. We expect to satisfy these cash requirements through rents from tenants at our parking facilities and the net proceeds from the consummation of the Merger and the Preferred PIPE Investment. We also will need to extend the maturity dates of the Credit Agreement and other short-term indebtedness, as discussed above. While exercise of the Warrant is a potential source of cash, we do not currently believe this is a likely event and therefore do not use this assumption in our operating plans.
To ensure that we have adequate capital to fund our operations and repay our maturing debt as it becomes due, we intend to assess options available to us to refinance and extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement, refinance certain of our current loans for various properties, and to both extend and sculpt our maturity wall, so that our maturities are spread out over multiple years. In addition, although we have no present intention to do so, we also may sell properties that we own or place mortgages on property that we own to raise capital.
Our future acquisitions or development of properties cannot be accurately projected because such acquisitions or development activities depend upon available opportunities that come to our attention and upon our ability to successfully acquire, develop and lease such properties. However, we have identified a pipeline of acquisition opportunities that we believe is bespoke and actionable, while being largely off-market and unavailable to our competitors. As of September 30, 2023, we have identified and are evaluating several parking facilities with more than $325 million in asset value as potential acquisition targets.
We completed the Merger and the Preferred PIPE Investment on August 25, 2023, pursuant to which we received gross proceeds of $4.55 million and $46.0 million, respectively.
Our ability to transition to more profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenue adequate to support our evolving cost structure. If events or circumstances occur such that we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to further reduce corporate overhead or other operating expenses, which could have an adverse impact on our ability to achieve intended business objectives or obtain additional financing. We continue to monitor and evaluate our corporate overhead and other operating expenses in light of our revenue and business objectives. If we anticipate that our actual results will differ from our operating plan, we believe we will have sufficient capabilities to enact cost-saving measures to preserve capital. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in implementing our business objectives, however, we believe that external sources of funding will be available in such circumstances. We may issue additional shares of our common stock, other equity securities ranking senior or on parity to our common stock or debt in the future for investment or operational purposes. The amount, timing, and mix of future liquidity will depend upon the judgment of our management, the market price of our common stock, and prevailing interest rates, among other factors. Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, costs to facilitate revenue expansion, including investing in our existing parking facilities, the acquisition of additional parking facilities, and our existing borrowings.
Sources and Uses of Cash
The following table summarizes our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in thousands):
| For the Nine Months Ended September 30, |
||||||||
| 2023 |
2022 |

| Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities |
$ | (1,418 | ) | $ | 1,965 | |||

$ | (172 | ) | $ | (19,160 | ) | ||
| Net cash provided by financing activities |
$ | 9,286 | $ | 13,082 | ||||
Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to the nine months ended September 30, 2022:
Cash flows from operating activities
The cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to payments of deferred offering costs and other Merger-related amounts paid and an increase in cash paid for interest as a result of higher rates during the same comparable period.
Cash flows from investing activities
The cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures offset by proceeds from the sale of one parking asset in February 2023. The cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to routine and strategic capital expenditures and the acquisition of one parking asset in June 2022.
Cash flows from financing activities
The cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to the Merger and the PIPE investment. The proceeds from the Merger were then used to fund the $15.0 million paydown of the Revolving Credit Facility, payment of transaction costs, and pay-off of certain of mortgage loans. The cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility of $73.7 million partially offset by the repayment of $55.1 million of notes payable and loan fees resulting from the Revolving Credit Facility.
Distributions on Common Stock
On March 22, 2018, Legacy MIC suspended the payment of distributions on its Common Stock. There can be no assurance that cash distributions to the Company’s common stockholders will be resumed in the future. The actual amount and timing of distributions, if any, will be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion and typically will depend on various factors that the Company’s Board of Directors deems relevant. However, if distributions do resume, all or a portion of the distributions may be paid from other sources, such as cash flows from equity offerings, financing activities, borrowings, or by way of waiver or deferral of fees. The Company has not established any limit on the extent to which distributions could be funded from these other sources. Accordingly, the amount of distributions paid may not reflect current cash flow from operations and distributions may include a return of capital, (rather than a return on capital). If the Company pays distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, the funds available to the Company for investments would be reduced and the share value may be diluted. The level of distributions will be determined by the Board of Directors and depend on several factors including current and projected liquidity requirements, anticipated operating cash flows and tax considerations, and other relevant items deemed applicable by the Board of Directors.
The Company did not repurchase any of its shares during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. No cash dividends can be made on the Common Stock until the preferred distributions are paid.
Preferred Stock
On March 24, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously authorized the suspension of the payment of distributions on the Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock"), par value $0.0001 per share, and Series 1 Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series 1 Preferred Stock" and, together with the Series A Preferred Stock, "Preferred Stock"), par value $0.0001 per share; however, such distributions will continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series 1 Preferred Stock.
As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, approximately $0.8 million and $0.6 million of accrued and unpaid Series A Preferred Stock distributions, respectively, are included in accrued preferred distributions on the consolidated balance sheet.
As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, approximately $9.9 million and $7.2 million of accrued and unpaid Series 1 Preferred Stock distributions, respectively, are included in accrued preferred distributions on the consolidated balance sheet.
In connection with the Closing, each issued and outstanding share of Legacy MIC Series 1 Preferred Stock and Legacy MIC Series A Preferred Stock converted into the right to receive one share of Series 1 Preferred Stock or one share of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, having terms materially the same as the applicable Legacy MIC Preferred Stock, except that the shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock instead of shares of Legacy MIC Common Stock.
On June 15, 2023, the Preferred PIPE Investors each entered into a Preferred Subscription Agreement with FWAC pursuant to which, among other things, the Preferred PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and FWAC agreed to issue and sell to the Preferred PIPE Investors, a total of 46,000 shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $46,000,000, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.
On the earlier of (a) a change of control of MIC and (b) December 31, 2023, the Series 2 Preferred Stock will convert into 12,534,058 shares of our common stock. The Series 2 Preferred Stock is entitled to receive dividends at a cumulative annual rate of 10% during the period between the initial issuance of such shares and the conversion thereof into shares of our common stock; provided that if the date of distribution occurs prior to the first anniversary of the original date of issuance of such share, the holder of such share of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall receive dividends at a cumulative annual rate of 10% of the $1,000.00 per share liquidation preference for a period of one year, and will be paid in full on the conversion date. Dividends will be paid in kind and also convert into shares of our common stock on the earlier of (a) a change of control of MIC and (b) December 31, 2023. The Series 2 Preferred Stock converts at a conversion price of $3.67 per share of common stock, subject to appropriate adjustment in relation to certain events, such as recapitalizations, stock dividends, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Series 2 Preferred Stock, as set forth in the Charter. Accordingly, the aggregate of 46,000 shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock is expected to convert into a total of 13,787,462 shares of our common stock, which number is comprised of (i) 12,534,058 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of 46,000 shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock based on the stated value of such shares and (ii) 1,253,404 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of the dividends. Because the terms and amount of the dividend are contractually agreed upon, at the time of the Merger we recorded the full $4.6 million value of the paid-in-kind dividend.
Warrant
On August 25, 2021, in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Equity Purchase and Contribution Agreement, dated January 8, 2021, by and among Legacy MIC, the Operating Partnership, Michael Shustek, VRMI, VRM II and Color Up, Legacy MIC entered into the Warrant Agreement with Color Up pursuant to which MIC issued a warrant to purchase up to 1,702,128 shares of Legacy MIC Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.75 per share for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $20.0 million (the “Legacy MIC Warrant”).
In connection with the Merger, immediately following the time that the First Merger became effective, the Legacy MIC Warrant became the Warrant to purchase 2,553,192 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.83 per share, exercisable as of the date of the Closing. As of the Closing Date, FWAC, Legacy MIC, and Color Up entered into a Warrant Assumption and Amendment Agreement (the “Warrant Assumption and Amendment Agreement”) to the Warrant Agreement, whereby the Company assumed the Common Stock Warrants remaining outstanding and unexpired at that time, and such Common Stock Warrants became the common stock warrants of the Company. On August 29, 2023, the Company and Color Up entered into the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement pursuant to which the Warrant Agreement was amended and restated to reflect the effects of the Merger and permit Color Up to exercise the Warrant on a cashless basis at Color Up’s option.
We assess our warrants as either equity or a liability based upon the characteristics and provisions of each instrument. Warrants classified as equity are recorded at fair value as of the date of issuance on our balance sheet and no further adjustments to their valuation are made. Our management estimated the fair value of these warrants using option pricing models and assumptions that are based on the individual characteristics of the warrants or other instruments on the valuation date, as well as assumptions for future financings, expected volatility, expected life, yield and risk-free interest rate. As of September 30, 2023 all outstanding warrants, including the Legacy MIC Warrant and the Warrant, issued by the Company were classified as equity.
Critical Accounting Policies
Legacy MIC's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 22, 2023, contains a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, including those relating to real estate investments and acquisitions. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during 2023.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, prior to filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
(b) Remediation Plan and Status
As previously described in Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed by Legacy MIC, we identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting related to (i) the lack of appropriate segregation of duties within the accounting and finance groups; (ii) the lack of formal and effective controls over user access to certain information systems to ensure adequate restriction of users and privileged access to transaction processing applications; and (iii) inappropriate application of GAAP.
Additionally, as previously described in Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed by FWAC, prior to the Merger, FWAC’s management identified that FWAC’s control around the interpretation and accounting for extinguishment of a significant contingent obligation was not effectively designed or maintained. That material weakness resulted in the restatement of FWAC’s interim financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022. As a result, FWAC’s management performed additional analysis as it deemed necessary to ensure that FWAC’s financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management has concluded that this material weakness has not been remediated.
Our remediation efforts are ongoing and we continue our initiatives to implement and document policies, procedures, and internal controls. Remediation of the identified material weaknesses and strengthening our internal control environment will require substantial effort throughout 2023 and beyond. While we believe the steps taken to date and those planned for implementation will improve our internal controls over financial reporting, we have not completed all remediation efforts. The planned remediation activities described in Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed by Legacy MIC highlight our commitment to remediating our identified material weaknesses and remain largely unchanged through the date of filing this Quarterly Report.
The following remedial actions have been identified and initiated by the Company through September 30, 2023:
| ● |
We have hired and will continue to hire and train additional accounting resources with appropriate levels of experience and reallocating responsibilities across the finance organization. This measure provides for segregation of duties and ensures that the appropriate level of knowledge and experience will be applied based on the risk and complexity of transactions and tasks under review. |
| ● |
We have and will continue to educate control owners and enhance policies to ensure appropriate restrictions related to user access and privileged access are in place. |
|
| ● |
We have re-evaluated the permissions of user roles within our accounting system and have re-assigned access to individuals in order to establish more appropriate segregation of duties. |
|
| ● |
We have and will continue to enhance internal control documentation for key controls to ensure the assignment of preparers and reviewers, and establishing policies for the formal sign-off of key controls. |

Beginning with the third quarter of 2022, we established a formal Disclosure Committee to enhance governance by management for the oversight of internal controls over financial reporting, including disclosure controls and procedures. |
| ● |
We have provided access to accounting literature and research to enable the control owners in evaluating technical accounting pronouncements for certain transactions, in addition to utilizing third party resources when appropriate. |
| ● |
Through our continued remediation efforts, we have identified and recorded certain accounting adjustments during the third and fourth quarters of 2022 that were considered immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to our consolidated financial statements taken as a whole for the affected periods. Our continued remediation activities will include the designing of internal control policies and practices that directly respond to these accounting adjustments. |
As the Company continues to evaluate and works to improve its internal control over financial reporting, the Company’s management may determine that additional or different measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the changes related to the Company’s remediation efforts described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The nature of the Company’s business exposes its properties, the Company, the Operating Company, and its other subsidiaries to the risk of claims and litigation in the normal course of business. Other than as noted above or routine litigation arising out of the ordinary course of business, the Company is not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company.
See Note N — Commitments and Contingencies in Part I, Item 1 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
Our business is subject to numerous risks that you should carefully consider.

A summary of these risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects include the following: There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Prospectus, which are incorporated herein by reference. However, the risk factors described therein are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any such risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects and cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.
