FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND DECEMBER 31, 2023


FULTON SEAFOOD MARKET, LLC

CONTENTS


Independent Auditors’ Report

The Members
Fulton Seafood Market, LLC:

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Fulton Seafood Market, LLC (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of operations and members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Substantial Doubt About the Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operations, and will continue to require funding in the form of contributions from the Seaport Entertainment Group member in order to fund its operations and meet obligations over the next twelve months. As such, the Company stated that substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's evaluation of the events anssssd conditions and management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

1


Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Nature of Operations

On July 22, 2015, HHC Seafood Market Member LLC (HHSM or the HHC member), a subsidiary of Howard Hughes Corporation (HHC), together with VS-Fulton Seafood LLC (VS Member), a wholly-owned subsidiary of JG Restaurant Holdco, LLC (JG), formed Fulton Seafood Market, LLC (the “Company”), through the Original Company LLC Agreement, for the purpose of operating a first-class “Jean Georges concept” food hall and market place, featuring various menus and atmosphere that will prepare and sell a variety of specialty goods, beverages, fresh seafood and other products. The Original Company LLC Agreement was superseded and replaced in its entirety by the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated as of January 8, 2018 and a Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement was entered into as of August 11, 2022 (LLC Agreement).

In September 2022, the Company opened the food hall and marketplace in the Tin Building which is located in the historic South Street Seaport of New York, New York.  The Tin Building is owned by South Street Seaport Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of Seaport Entertainment Group, Inc. (“Seaport Entertainment” or “SEG”) and the Company’s operations are managed by Creative Culinary Management Company, LLC (CCMC), a wholly owned subsidiary of JG.

On August 11, 2023, HHC implemented a holding company reorganization which resulted in Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. (“HHH”) becoming the direct parent company of the Company and replacing the Company as the public company trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

On July 31, 2024, the separation of SEG from HHH was completed. Seaport Entertainment is comprised of HHH’s pre-existing entertainment-related assets in New York City and Las Vegas, including the Company.

Per Article 4 of the LLC Agreement, the HHH member, now SEG, shall contribute cash to the Company at such times and in such amounts as necessary in order to fund the operations of the Company. Under no circumstances shall the VS Member be required to make any Capital Contributions to the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2024, total contributions from HHH and SEG were $29,450,445. During the year ended December 31, 2023, total contributions from HHC were $48,052,013.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Fiscal Year

Prior to January 1, 2024, the Company utilized a 52- or 53-week accounting period that ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Fiscal years 2023 was comprised of a 52-week period beginning on January 2, 2023, and ending on December 31, 2023. Unless otherwise stated, references to 2023 in this report relate to fiscal year rather than calendar year. On January 1, 2024, the Company changed from a 52- or 53-week accounting period to a calendar year period ending on December 31. As such, the current year includes all activity beginning on January 1, 2024, and ending on December 31, 2024. The primary purpose of the change is to align the financial reporting calendar of the Company along with the other entities under SEG. The Company does not believe the change has a material impact on the comparability of the two periods presented within these financial statements. As such, the fiscal year 2023 reporting period has not been restated to include the activity on January 1, 2023 which is included within fiscal year 2022.

Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents also included $229,916 and $523,651 at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively of amounts due from commercial credit card companies, such as Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express, which are generally received within a few days of the related transactions.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND DECEMBER 31, 2023

Inventory, Net

Inventories primarily consist of food, beverages, retail products and related merchandise. Inventories are accounted for at lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Spoilage is expensed as incurred. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, an inventory reserve totaling $97,964 and $181,533, respectively is included in inventory, net on the accompanying balance sheets.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost.  The cost of additions and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. The Company capitalizes construction costs during construction of the restaurant and will begin to depreciate them once the restaurant begins operations. When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statements of operations.

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is recorded utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The Company does not assign any salvage value to its assets.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of either the term of the lease or the useful life of the improvement utilizing the straight-line method.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets, which consists of property and equipment and right-of-use assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss may be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset, including disposition, is less than the carrying value of the asset. The measurement of the impairment loss to be recognized is based on the difference between the fair value and the carrying amounts of the assets.  Fair value is generally determined by estimates of discounted cash flows or value expected to be realized in third-party sale. No impairments have been recorded for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023

Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company, which has elected to be taxed under the provisions of a partnership for income tax purposes. As such, the Company’s income or loss and credits are passed through to the members and reported on their individual income tax returns.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND DECEMBER 31, 2023

The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under that guidance, management assesses the likelihood that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances, and information available at the end of each period, including the technical merits of those positions. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available or when an event occurs that requires a change. Tax positions taken related to the Company’s federal tax filing classification and state income taxes have been reviewed, and management is of the opinion that material positions taken by the Company would more likely than not be sustained by examination. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an income tax liability for uncertain tax positions.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to allocate the transaction price received from customers to each separate and distinct performance obligation and recognize revenue as these performance obligations are satisfied. Revenue from restaurant sales is presented net of discounts and recognized when food and beverage are sold. Revenue from retail sales is presented net of discounts and recognized when retail products and related merchandise is sold.

The revenue from gift cards is included in unearned revenue when purchased by the customer and revenue is recognized when the gift cards are redeemed. Unearned revenues include liabilities established for the value of the gift cards when sold and are included in accrued expenses on the Company’s balance sheet were not material as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The revenue from gift cards were not material for the year ended of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Fair Value Measurement

FASB ASC 810-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820-10 are described below:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in the active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
Quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;
Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means; and
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The estimated fair value of accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs, which are included in general and administrative expenses, are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, amounted to $1,415,460 and $1,784,991, respectively and are included in general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations and member’s equity.

Presentation of Sales Taxes

The Company collects sales tax from customers and remits the entire amount to the respective states. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted from revenue and cost of sales. Sales tax payable amounted $69,583 and $258,542 at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively and is presented in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.

Note 3 - Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company had negative operating cash flows of $33,803,542 and $39,080,619 for 2024 and 2023, respectively and net losses of $33,361,756 and $41,516,962 for 2024 and 2023, respectively. Whether, and when, the Company can attain profitability and positive cash flows from operations is uncertain. As such, the Company will continue to require funding in the form of contributions from SEG in order to fund its operations and meet obligations over the next twelve months from the date these financials statements are available to be issued.

Based on its significant net losses and negative cash flows from operations for 2024 and 2023, as well as, the future uncertainty, the Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months. However, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 7 - Concentration of Credit Risk

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company maintained all cash balances with one financial institution. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures certain accounts up to $250,000. At times, the Company’s balances may exceed the FDIC insured limits.

The Company had two suppliers which accounted for approximately 17% and 34% of purchases for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the amounts due to these suppliers were approximately $0 and $246,000, respectively. Management believes that other suppliers could provide the merchandise on comparable terms.

Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company is subject to various legal and governmental proceedings involving routine litigation incidental to our business. Reserves have been established based on our best estimates of our potential liability in certain of these matters. These estimates have been developed in consultation with outside counsel.

During 2023, legal proceedings were brought against the Company from two of the Company’s outside vendors. Subsequent to 2024, the Company settled the legal proceedings and recorded an accrual in the amount of approximately $300,000 as of December 31, 2024 for the legal damages paid in February 2025, which is reflected in accrued expenses and other operating expenses. The Company does not believe the ultimate resolution of these matters
