Organization And Basis Of Financial Statement Presentation 1. Organization and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

Organization

BBX Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or, unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a Florida-based diversified holding company. BBX Capital Corporation as a standalone entity without its subsidiaries is referred to as “BBX Capital.”

BBX Capital has two classes of common stock. Holders of the Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share, which in the aggregate represents 22% of the combined voting power of the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock. Class B common stock represents the remaining 78% of the combined vote. The percentage of total common equity represented by Class A and Class B common stock was 83% and 17%, respectively, at June 30, 2020. Class B common stock is convertible into Class A common stock on a share for share basis at any time at the option of the holder.

Proposed Spin-Off

In June 2020, BBX Capital announced its intention to spin off its subsidiary, BBX Capital Florida LLC (“New BBX Capital”), in order to separate the business, activities, and investments of the Company into two separate, publicly-traded companies: (i) BBX Capital, which will continue to hold its investment in Bluegreen Vacations Corporation (“Bluegreen”), and (ii) New BBX Capital, which will continue to hold or will hold at the time of the spin-off all of the Company’s other businesses and investments, including BBX Capital Real Estate LLC (“BBX Capital Real Estate” or “BBXRE”), BBX Sweet Holdings, LLC (“BBX Sweet Holdings”), and Renin Holdings, LLC (“Renin”). Subsequent to the spin-off, BBX Capital will cease to have any ownership interest in New BBX Capital and will become solely a holding company for Bluegreen.

In connection with the spin-off, BBX Capital intends to change its name to “Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation” and for New BBX Capital to assume the name “BBX Capital Corporation.” In addition, BBX Capital will in connection with the spin-off issue a $75.0 million note payable to New BBX Capital that will accrue interest at a rate of 6% per annum and require payments of interest on a quarterly basis. Under the expected terms of the note, BBX Capital will have the option in its discretion to defer payments under the note, with amounts deferred to accrue interest at a cumulative, compounded rate of 8% per annum, and all outstanding amounts will become due and payable in five years or earlier upon certain other events. In connection with the spin-off, BBX Capital will also make cash contributions to New BBX Capital, and it is currently expected that, following the spin-off, BBX Capital will hold approximately $25.0 million in cash and cash equivalents (not including the cash and cash equivalents held by Bluegreen).

Completion of the spin-off is subject to a number of conditions, including, without limitation, approval of the spin-off in the contemplated manner by BBX Capital’s shareholders, final approval of BBX Capital’s Board of Directors, and the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on Form 10 filed by New BBX Capital with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). BBX Capital intends to hold a special meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of approving the spin-off and BBX Capital’s contemplated name change. Notwithstanding any approval of the spin-off by the BBX Capital’s shareholders or the satisfaction of any of the other closing conditions, BBX Capital may, in the sole discretion of its Board of Directors, abandon the spin-off at any time prior to its consummation.

Other Organizational Matters

In June 2020, BBX Capital adopted a shareholder rights plan in light of the ongoing novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the significant market volatility and uncertainties associated with the pandemic, and the impact on the Company and the market price of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. The shareholder rights plan is similar to plans recently adopted by other public companies in light of the current environment and generally provides a deterrent to any person or group from acquiring 5% or more of BBX Capital’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock without the prior approval of BBX Capital’s Board of Directors.

In July 2020, BBX Capital effected a one-for-five reverse split of its Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. In connection with the reverse stock split, the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock was reduced from 150,000,000 shares to 30,000,000 shares, and the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock was reduced from 20,000,000 shares to 4,000,000. Further, the shares authorized for issuance under BBX Capital’s Amended and Restated 2014 Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), and the underlying outstanding restricted stock awards previously granted under the Plan were ratably reduced in connection with the reverse stock split. The share and per share amounts included in this report, including the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the one-for-five reverse stock split as if it had occurred as of the earliest period presented.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

Financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP require the Company to make estimates based on assumptions about current and, for some estimates, future economic and market conditions which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the Company’s financial statements. Due to the unprecedented impact and current and potential future impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which is discussed in more detail throughout this report, actual conditions could differ from the Company’s expectations and estimates, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The severity, magnitude, and duration, as well as the economic consequences, of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing, and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company’s accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19. Such changes could result in, among other adjustments, future impairments of goodwill, intangibles, and long-lived assets, inventory reserves, and incremental changes in the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair statement of the condensed consolidated financial condition of the Company at June 30, 2020; the condensed consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019; the condensed consolidated changes in equity of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019; and the condensed consolidated cash flows of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or any other future period.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on March 13, 2020.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BBX Capital’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, other entities in which BBX Capital or its wholly-owned subsidiaries hold controlling financial interests, and any VIEs in which BBX Capital or one of its consolidated subsidiaries is deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the current period. The reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income or condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Principal Investments

The Company’s principal investments are Bluegreen, BBX Capital Real Estate, BBX Sweet Holdings, and Renin.

All of the Company’s principal investments have been impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic as disclosed throughout this report.

Bluegreen

Bluegreen is a leading vacation ownership company that markets and sells VOIs and manages resorts in popular leisure and urban destinations. Bluegreen’s resort network includes 45 Club Resorts (resorts in which owners in the Bluegreen Vacation Club (“Vacation Club”) have the right to use most of the units in connection with their VOI ownership) and 23 Club Associate Resorts (resorts in which owners in Bluegreen’s Vacation Club have the right to use a limited number of units in connection with their VOI ownership). Bluegreen markets, sells, and manages VOIs in resorts, which are primarily located in high-volume, “drive-to” vacation locations, including Orlando, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach, Charleston and New Orleans, among others. Through its points-based system, the approximately 219,000 owners in Bluegreen’s Vacation Club have the flexibility to stay at units available at its resorts and have access to almost 11,400 other hotels and resorts through partnerships and exchange networks. The resorts in which Bluegreen markets, sells, or manages VOIs were either developed or acquired by Bluegreen or were developed and are owned by third parties. Bluegreen earns fees for providing sales and marketing services to third party developers. Bluegreen also earns fees for providing management services to the Vacation Club and homeowners’ associations (“HOAs”), mortgage servicing, VOI title services, reservation services, and construction design and development services. In addition, Bluegreen provides financing to qualified VOI purchasers, which has historically generated significant interest income.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, Bluegreen repurchased and retired 1,878,400 shares of its common stock for $11.7 million. As of June 30, 2020, the Company owned approximately 93% of Bluegreen’s common stock.

BBX Capital Real Estate

BBX Capital Real Estate is engaged in the acquisition, development, construction, ownership, financing, and management of real estate and investments in real estate joint ventures, including investments in multifamily rental apartment communities, single-family master-planned for sale housing communities, and commercial properties located primarily in Florida. In addition, BBX Capital Real Estate owns a 50% equity interest in The Altman Companies, LLC (the “Altman Companies”), a developer and manager of multifamily apartment communities, and manages the legacy assets acquired in connection with the Company’s sale of BankAtlantic in 2012, including portfolios of loans receivable, real estate properties, and judgments.

BBX Sweet Holdings

BBX Sweet Holdings is engaged in the ownership and management of operating businesses in the confectionery industry, including IT’SUGAR, Hoffman’s Chocolates, and Las Olas Confections and Snacks. IT’SUGAR is a specialty candy retailer whose products include bulk candy, candy in giant packaging, and novelty items. Hoffman’s Chocolates is a retailer of gourmet chocolates with retail locations in South Florida, and Las Olas Confections and Snacks is a manufacturer and wholesaler of chocolate and other confectionery products.

Renin

Renin is engaged in the design, manufacture, and distribution of sliding doors, door systems and hardware, and home décor products and operates through its headquarters in Canada and two manufacturing and distribution facilities in the United States and Canada. In addition to its own manufacturing, Renin also sources various products and raw materials from China and Vietnam.

Other

In addition to its principal investments, the Company has investments in other operating businesses, including a restaurant located in South Florida that was acquired through a loan foreclosure and an insurance agency. The Company previously operated as a franchisee of MOD Pizza restaurant locations in Florida and exited these operations in September 2019.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and continues to cause, an unprecedented disruption in the U.S. and global economies and the industries in which the Company operates due to, among other things, government ordered “shelter in place” and “stay at home” orders and advisories, travel restrictions, and restrictions on business operations, including government guidance with respect to travel, public accommodations, social gatherings, and related matters. The disruptions arising from the pandemic and the reaction of the general public had a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial condition and operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and severity of the pandemic and related disruptions, as well as the adverse impact on economic and market conditions, are uncertain; however, given the nature of these circumstances, the adverse impact of the pandemic on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition in 2020 has been, and is expected to continue to be, material. Furthermore, although the duration and severity of the effects of the pandemic are uncertain, demand for many of the Company’s products and services may remain weak for a significant length of time, and the Company cannot predict if or when the industries in which the Company operates will return to pre-pandemic levels.

Although the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s principal investments and management’s efforts to mitigate the effects of the pandemic has varied, as described in further detail below, BBX Capital and its subsidiaries have sought to take steps to manage expenses through cost saving initiatives and reductions in employee head count and actions to increase liquidity and strengthen the Company’s financial position, including maintaining availability under lines of credit, reducing planned capital expenditures, and in the case of BBX Capital and Bluegreen, suspending the payment of regular quarterly dividends. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s consolidated cash balances were $348.0 million, including $138.6 million held directly by BBX Capital and its subsidiaries other than Bluegreen.

The following is a summary of the current and estimated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s principal investments:

Bluegreen

On March 23, 2020, Bluegreen temporarily closed all of its VOI sales centers; its retail marketing operations at Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s stores and outlet malls; and its Choice Hotels call transfer program. In connection with these actions Bluegreen also canceled existing owner reservations through May 15, 2020 and new prospect guest tours through June 30, 2020. Further, some of Bluegreen’s Club and Club Associate Resorts were closed in accordance with government mandates and advisories. Beginning mid-May 2020, Bluegreen started the process of recommencing its sales and marketing operations and its closed resorts began to welcome guests as government mandates were lifted. By June 30, 2020, 64 Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s stores (out of the 89 that were open in March 2020) were open, Bluegreen had reactivated its Choice Hotels call transfer program, virtually all of its resorts were open, and 21 of its 26 VOI sales centers were open for sales to existing owners and one sale center was selling to new prospects. As of July 31, 2020, 23 VOI sales centers were open for existing owners, 17 of which were open for sales to new prospects. System-wide sales of VOIs were $30.9 million in July 2020. In addition, as of July 31, 2020 Bluegreen was marketing vacation packages at 85 Bass Pro and Cabela’s stores. However, increased COVID-19 cases in certain markets in July resulted in a increases in cancelations of marketing guest stays (and consequently, new owner prospects), and it is impossible to predict whether this trend will continue or worsen or the extent of the adverse impact this may have on Bluegreen.

As a result of the effect of the pandemic, Bluegreen implemented several cost mitigating activities beginning in March 2020, including reductions in workforce of over 1,600 positions and the placement of another approximate 3,200 of it associates on temporary furlough or reduced work hours. As of June 30, 2020, approximately 2,300 associates had returned to work on a full-time basis. In July 2020, approximately 600 additional associates returned to work on a full-time basis for a total of approximately 4,250 full-time associates as of July 31, 2020 compared to approximately 6,050 full-time associates as of July 31, 2019. However, as a result of the slowdown discussed above or otherwise, additional employees may be terminated or furloughed in the future. As a result of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Bluegreen incurred $2.2 million and $6.7 million in severance, respectively, and $10.7 million and $11.6 million, respectively, of payroll and payroll benefit expense relating to employees on temporary furlough or reduced work hours. These payments and expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Also, in March 2020, Bluegreen drew down $60 million under its lines-of-credit and pledged or sold receivables under its various receivable backed facilities to increase its cash position. In June 2020, Bluegreen repaid $40 million under its syndicated line-of-credit and amended the agreements to modify the definition of certain customary covenants. Bluegreen also suspended its regular quarterly cash dividends on its common stock. As of June 30, 2020, Bluegreen’s unrestricted cash balance was $209.4 million.

The Company expects that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will materially adversely affect Bluegreen’s operating results and financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2020, and a sustained adverse impact on Bluegreen’s revenues, net income, or other operating results due to the COVID-19 pandemic could result in failures to comply with various loan covenants in its outstanding indebtedness. While there is no assurance that it will be successful, Bluegreen will seek waivers from its lenders where necessary.

BBX Capital Real Estate

Although BBXRE has not to date been as significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as Bluegreen and BBX Sweet Holdings, the effects of the pandemic have impacted BBXRE’s operations and are expected to impact its operating results and financial position for the year ended December 31, 2020. Recent construction activities have continued at BBXRE’s existing projects, and following some disruptions in March and April 2020, sales at BBXRE’s single-family home developments generally returned to pre-pandemic levels. However, the effects of the pandemic, including increased unemployment and economic uncertainty, as well as recent increases in the number of COVID-19 cases in Florida and throughout the United States, have impacted rental activities at BBXRE’s multifamily apartment developments. In addition, the effects of the pandemic, including the impact on general economic conditions and real estate and credit markets, have increased uncertainty relating to the expected timing and pricing of future sales of multifamily apartment developments, single-family homes, and developed lots at BBXRE’s Beacon Lake Community, as well as the timing and financing of new multifamily apartment developments.

While the Company expects that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will adversely affect BBXRE’s operating results and financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2020, particularly with respect to the expected timing of sales, the Company evaluated various factors, including asset-specific factors, overall economic and market conditions, and the excess of the expected profits associated with such assets in relation to their carrying amounts, and concluded that, except as discussed below, there had not been a significant decline in the fair value of most of BBXRE’s real estate assets as of June 30, 2020 that should be recognized as an impairment loss. As part of this evaluation, the Company considered the sales at its single-family home developments (which remain at or near pre-pandemic levels), continued collection of rent at its multifamily apartment developments, and indications that there has not to date been a significant decline in sales prices for single family homes or an increase in capitalization rates for multifamily apartment communities. However, the Company recognized $2.7 million of impairment losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily related to a decline in the estimated fair values of certain of BBXRE’s investments in joint ventures, including i) a joint venture that is developing an office tower, as the market for office space has been more significantly impacted by the pandemic compared to the single family and multifamily markets in which BBXRE primarily invests, and ii) a joint venture invested in a multifamily apartment community in which BBXRE purchased its interest following the stabilization of the underlying asset at a purchase price calculated based on assumptions related to the timing and pricing of the sale of the asset, both of which have been impacted by the pandemic.

There is no assurance that the real estate market will not be materially adversely impacted by the pandemic or otherwise, that the sales prices of single-family homes will not materially decline, that rents will be paid when due or at all, or that market rents will not materially decline. While government efforts to delay or forestall evictions and the availability of judicial remedies have not to date materially impacted BBXRE’s operations, they may in the future have an adverse impact on both market values and BBXRE’s operating results. Further, the effects of the pandemic may impact the costs of operating BBXRE’s real estate assets, including, but not limited to, an increase in property insurance costs indicated by recent quotes of insurance costs that are higher than pre-pandemic levels, which could also have an adverse impact on market values and BBXRE’s operating results. BBXRE will continue to monitor economic and market conditions and may recognize further impairment losses in future periods as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, material declines in overall real estate values, sales prices for single family homes, and/or rental rates for multifamily apartments.

The Altman Companies and Related Investments

To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not significantly impacted construction activities which remain ongoing at the existing projects sponsored by the Altman Companies, and as a result, the Altman Companies continues to generate development and general contractor fees from such projects. In addition, the Altman Companies had collected in excess of 95% of the rents at the multifamily apartment communities under its management through July 2020, although initial collections of August 2020 rent were slower than in prior months. With respect to its leasing activities, while leasing was conducted virtually during March through May 2020, the Altman Companies has reopened its leasing offices for visits by appointment. However, as a result of the effects of the pandemic, the Altman Companies

has experienced a decline in tenant demand and in the volume of new leases at certain of its communities, which has resulted in an increase in concessions offered to prospective and renewing tenants in an effort to maintain occupancy at its stabilized communities or increase occupancy at its communities under development. Further, some jurisdictions have imposed moratoriums on evictions.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy remains uncertain, and the effects of the pandemic, including a prolonged economic downturn, high unemployment, the expiration of or a decrease in government benefits to individuals, and government-mandated moratoriums on tenant evictions, could ultimately have a longer term and more significant impact on rental rates, occupancy levels, and rent collections, including an increase in tenant delinquencies and/or requests for rent abatements. These effects would impact the amount of rental revenues generated from the multifamily apartment communities sponsored and managed by the Altman Companies, the extent of management fees earned by the Altman Companies, and the ability of the related joint ventures to stabilize and successfully sell such communities. Furthermore, a decline in rental revenues at developments sponsored by the Altman Companies could require it, as the sponsor and managing member, to fund operating shortfalls in certain circumstances.

Further, while there are indications that that capitalization rates for multifamily apartment communities similar to those sponsored and managed by the Altman Companies have largely remained steady, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic conditions in general, including the uncertainty regarding the severity and duration of such impact, has adversely impacted the level of real estate sales activity and overall credit markets and may ultimately have a significant adverse impact on capitalization rates and real estate values in future periods, particularly if there is a prolonged economic downturn.

If there is a significant adverse impact on real estate values as a result of lower rental revenues, higher capitalization rates, or otherwise, the joint ventures sponsored by the Altman Companies may be unable to sell their respective multifamily apartment developments within the time frames previously anticipated and/or for the previously forecasted sales prices, if at all, which may impact the profits expected to be earned by BBXRE from its investment in the managing member of such projects and could result in the recognition of impairment losses related to BBXRE’s investment in such projects. Furthermore, the Altman Companies may be unable to close on the equity and/or debt financing necessary to commence the construction of new projects, including the development of Altis at Lake Willis, which could result in increased operating losses at the Altman Companies due to a decline in development, general contractor, and management fees, the recognition of impairment losses by BBXRE and/or the Altman Companies related to their current investments in predevelopment expenditures and land acquired for development, and the recognition of impairment losses related to BBXRE’s overall investment in the Altman Companies, as the profitability and value of the Altman Companies is directly correlated with its ability to source new development opportunities.

Beacon Lake Master Planned Development

Following the initial outbreak of COVID-19 in March 2020, homebuilders at the Beacon Lake Community experienced a decline in the volume of sales traffic and home sales and requested extensions of their existing agreements for the purchase of additional developed lots from BBXRE, and BBXRE agreed to such extensions. Subsequently, sales activity significantly increased in May 2020 and generally returned to pre-pandemic levels in June and July 2020. Accordingly, BBXRE currently expects the remaining sale of developed lots to occur pursuant to the modified takedown schedules under its purchase agreements with homebuilders. However, there is no assurance that this will be the case, and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and demand for single-family housing remain uncertain and could result in further requests by homebuilders to extend the timing of their purchase of developed lots and/or failure of the homebuilders to meet their obligations under these contracts. In addition, a decline in home prices as a result of the economic impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic could result in a decrease in contingent revenues expected to be earned by BBXRE in connection with sales of homes by homebuilders on developed lots previously sold to them, as well as a decrease in the expected sales prices for the unsold lots comprising the remainder of the Beacon Lakes Community. Although BBXRE is not currently expecting a significant decrease in the sales prices or fair value of its unsold lots, a significant decline in the demand and pricing for single-family homes could result in the recognition of impairment losses in future periods.

BBX Sweet Holdings

In March 2020, as a result of various factors, including government-mandated closures and CDC and WHO advisories in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, IT’SUGAR closed all of its retail locations and furloughed all store employees and the majority of its corporate employees. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, IT’SUGAR reopened 85 of its retail locations (out of approximately 100 locations that were open prior to the pandemic) as part of a phased reopening plan, and as part of this plan, it implemented revised store floor plans, increased sanitation

protocols, and began recalling furloughed store and corporate employees to full or part-time employment. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, IT’SUGAR reopened an additional 11 of its retail locations but was required to close 4 previously reopened retail locations as a result of various governments reimplementing mandated closures. In addition, on a daily basis, IT’SUGAR has had to temporarily close 4-6 locations due to staffing shortages. Sales at IT’SUGAR’s retail locations that were open as of June 30, 2020 declined during the second quarter of 2020 by approximately 48% as compared to the comparable period in 2019, and sales at its locations that were open as of July 31, 2020 declined by approximately 43% during July 2020 as compared to the comparable period in 2019. There is no assurance that sales volumes will improve or will not further decline, as the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on demand and future sales levels, including a recessionary economic environment and the potential impact of the pandemic on consumer behavior, remain uncertain. In addition, IT’SUGAR may close additional previously reopened locations as a result of various factors, including governments reimplementing mandated closures, continued staffing shortages, or insufficient sales volumes. Further, there is uncertainty as to when IT’SUGAR will be able to reopen locations that have remained closed since March 2020 or that were subsequently closed following their initial reopening.

As a result of the closure of its retail locations, IT’SUGAR ceased paying rent to the landlords of such locations in April 2020 and has been engaged in negotiations with its landlords for rent abatements, deferrals, and other modifications for the period of time that the locations were or have been closed and the period of time that the locations are opened and operating under conditions which are affected by the pandemic. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2020, IT’SUGAR had accrued and unpaid current rental obligations of $4.5 million, which are included in other liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial condition, and had received default notices from landlords in relation to 28 of its locations. While IT’SUGAR had executed lease amendments in relation to 16 of its retail locations as of June 30, 2020 and an additional 5 of its retail locations subsequent to June 30, 2020, it remains involved in ongoing and active negotiations with most of its landlords and has only paid a portion of July 2020 rent for most of its locations (including many locations for which IT’SUGAR had previously executed lease amendments related to rent concessions for April through June 2020). In connection with these negotiations, IT’SUGAR’s landlords have in some cases indicated that they might provide additional relief if IT’SUGAR opened additional locations at certain of the landlords’ other retail locations. The terms of the executed lease amendments vary and include a combination of rent abatements and deferrals. For amendments that provide for the deferral of rent, the repayment terms generally contemplate a repayment period during the remainder of 2020 and through the end of 2021. Certain amendments also provide for the payment of rent based on a percentage of sales volumes for a period of one year to two years in lieu of previously scheduled fixed and variable lease costs under the terms of the existing leases. However, there is no assurance that IT’SUGAR will be able to execute agreements with the landlords of its remaining locations relating to rents for the months of April through June 2020 or, if necessary, with all of its landlords relating to rents for the remaining months of 2020. Furthermore, due to the uncertainty related to IT’SUGAR’s business as a result of the pandemic, including the potential impact on sales volumes and the possibility of additional closures of its retail locations, there is no assurance that it will be in a position to meet its obligations under the terms of lease agreements and amendments that have been executed or are otherwise being negotiated. Further, there is no assurance that the terms of lease amendments that have been executed or are being negotiated will provide sufficient relief for IT’SUGAR to stabilize and maintain its full operations. If IT’SUGAR’s negotiations with its landlords are not successful and its failure to pay rent constitutes an event of default under the applicable lease agreements, IT’SUGAR’s landlords may also pursue remedies available to them pursuant to such agreements, which may include the acceleration of liabilities under the lease agreements and the initiation of eviction proceedings.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on demand, sales levels, and consumer behavior, as well as the current recessionary economic environment, have had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on IT’SUGAR’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. As a result of the impact of the pandemic on IT’SUGAR’s business, including the above mentioned decline in sales volumes as a result of the prolonged closure of its retail locations, decrease in customer traffic in its stores, and the impact of the pandemic on demand and consumer behavior, IT’SUGAR does not believe that it will have sufficient liquidity to continue its operations if it is unable to obtain significant rent abatements or deferrals from its landlords and amended payment terms from its vendors and its sales volumes do not recover and stabilize in a reasonable period of time. Further, based on its current estimates, IT’SUGAR expects that it will require additional funding or capital in 2020 in order to maintain its operations and is engaged in efforts to obtain additional funding from BBX Capital or other outside investors. If IT’SUGAR is unable to successfully negotiate with its landlords and vendors, its sales volumes do not recover, and it is unable to obtain additional funding or capital, IT’SUGAR would need to consider pursuing a formal or informal restructuring.

As a result of the above factors, the Company recognized $25.3 million of impairment losses related to IT’SUGAR’s goodwill and long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2020, including the recognition of a goodwill impairment loss of $20.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 based on a decline in the estimated

fair value of IT’SUGAR to $27.3 million as of March 31, 2020. With respect to the decline in the estimated fair value of IT’SUGAR as of March 31, 2020 as compared to December 31, 2019, the Company’s estimated future cash flows reflected the impact of the temporary closure of IT’SUGAR’s retail locations commencing in March 2020 and the liabilities incurred by IT’SUGAR during the shutdown and considered scenarios in which IT’SUGAR’s business would stabilize following a phased reopening of its retail locations. The Company’s estimated discount rate applicable to IT’SUGAR’s cash flows was also increased to reflect, among other things, changes in market conditions, the uncertainty of the duration and severity of the economic downturn, uncertainty related to the retail environment and consumer behavior, uncertainty related to IT’SUGAR’s ability to stabilize its operations and implement its long-term strategies for its business, and the deterioration in IT’SUGAR’s financial condition as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its lack of sufficient liquidity for its operations during 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the carrying amount of the IT’SUGAR reporting unit had declined to $18.9 million, which included goodwill of $14.9 million and debt payable to a subsidiary of BBXRE, as described in Note 9, primarily as a result of operating losses incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a result of various factors, including IT’SUGAR’s sales volumes in June and July 2020 being lower than those estimated in the Company’s valuation of IT’SUGAR as of March 31, 2020 and an expectation that the stabilization of IT’SUGAR’s operations will take longer than previously anticipated, the Company updated its estimate of the fair value of IT’SUGAR as of June 30, 2020 to reflect its updated expectations regarding the stabilization of IT’SUGAR’s operations and concluded that no additional impairment loss related to IT’SUGAR’s goodwill was required to be recognized as of June 30, 2020.

The Company’s assessment of IT’SUGAR’s assets for impairment required the Company to make estimates based on facts and circumstances as of each reporting date and assumptions about current and future economic and market conditions. These assumptions included the stabilization of IT’SUGAR following a phased reopening of its retail locations in 2020 and its ability to access and operate in its retail locations in spite of ongoing negotiations with the landlords of these locations related to unpaid rents. In addition, the Company’s estimates assumed that there would not be a material permanent decline in the demand for IT’SUGAR’s products and that IT’SUGAR will ultimately in the future return to its full operations and implement its long-term strategy to reinvest in and grow its business. However, as the severity, magnitude, and duration, as well as the economic consequences, of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing, and difficult to predict, these estimates and assumptions may change over time, which may result in the recognition of additional impairment losses related to IT’SUGAR’s assets that would be material to the Company’s financial statements, as well as the recognition of restructuring charges. Changes in assumptions that could materially impact the Company’s estimates related to IT’SUGAR that could result in the recognition of impairment losses in future periods include, but are not limited to, a material permanent decline in demand for IT’SUGAR’s products, IT’SUGAR abandoning its long-term strategy to reinvest and grow its business as a result of changes in consumer demand, IT’SUGAR pursuing a formal or informal restructuring, retail locations not reopening pursuant to IT’SUGAR’s phased reopening plan, significant additional closures following the initial reopening of locations, and landlords of IT’SUGAR’s retail locations limiting operations in leased locations through eviction proceedings as a result of unpaid or disputed rent payments.

See Note 8 for additional information with respect to the recognition of impairment losses related to IT’SUGAR.

In addition to the material adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on IT’SUGAR’s operations, BBX Sweet Holdings’ other operations have also been adversely impacted by the pandemic. In March 2020, Hoffman’s Chocolates closed all of its retail locations to customer traffic and limited sales to curbside pickup (where allowable by government mandates) and online customers. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, it reopened all of its locations and achieved sales volumes at approximately 70% of pre-pandemic levels (as compared to the comparable period in 2019). In addition, while Las Olas Confections and Snacks’ manufacturing and distribution processes were not materially impacted by the pandemic, its sales during the three months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately 51% of pre-pandemic levels (as compared to the comparable period in 2019). Hoffman’s Chocolates and Las Olas Confections and Snacks have also been engaged in negotiations with the landlords of their respective retail and manufacturing locations for rent abatements, deferrals, and other modifications. As of June 30, 2020, Hoffman’s Chocolates and Las Olas Confections and Snacks had accrued and unpaid current rental obligations of $0.3 million, which are included in other liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial condition, and they had executed lease amendments with respect to 4 of such locations, including Las Olas Confections and Snacks’ manufacturing facility in Orlando, Florida. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, Hoffman’s Chocolates executed lease amendments with respect to an additional 2 of its retail locations. Similar to IT’SUGAR, there is no assurance that the sales volumes of these businesses will improve, and they may be required to close previously reopened locations as a result of governments reimplementing mandated closures or otherwise. Furthermore, there is no assurance that Hoffman’s Chocolates will be able to execute lease amendments with the landlords of its remaining locations, and due to the uncertainty related to these businesses as a result of the pandemic, there is no assurance they will be in position to meet their obligations under the terms of lease agreements and amendments that have been executed or are otherwise being negotiated.

Renin

Renin has not to date been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it has continued to operate both of its manufacturing and distribution facilities, source various products and raw materials from China and Vietnam, and sell its products through various channels. Although Renin has experienced a decline in sales to certain customers as a result of concerns related to the pandemic, these declines have been offset by an increase in sales through its retail and commercial channels.

Although Renin’s operations have not to date been significantly impacted by the pandemic, the effects of the pandemic, including a recessionary economic environment, could have a significant adverse impact on Renin’s results of operations and financial condition in future periods, particularly if an economic downturn is prolonged in nature and impacts consumer demand or the effects of the pandemic result in material disruptions in the supply chains for its products and raw materials. Further, while Renin has begun to diversify its supply chain and transfer the assembly of certain products from foreign suppliers to its own manufacturing facilities, Renin continues to source products and raw materials from China. As a result, disruptions in its supply chain from China as a result of various factors, including increased tariffs or closures in the supply chain, could impact Renin’s cost of product and ability to meet customer demand.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) and guidance relevant to the Company’s operations which were adopted as of January 1, 2020:

ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (as subsequently amended and clarified by various ASUs). This standard introduces an approach of estimating credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating its allowance for credit losses. The standard also requires entities to record an allowance for credit losses for available for sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount under the other-than temporary impairment model. In addition, the standard requires entities to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination (i.e., by vintage year). The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective method. The Company did not recognize a cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption of the standard as Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable are recorded net of an allowance that is calculated in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts, and which complies with the requirements of ASC 326. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables, as the Company’s

interest income is suspended, and previously accrued but unpaid interest income is reversed, on all delinquent notes receivable when principal or interest payments are more than 90 days contractually past due and not resumed until such loans are less than 90 days past due. In addition, the application of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s remaining instruments that are within the scope of the standard. As such, the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-15, Intangibles (Topic 350-40): Goodwill and Other – Internal–Use Software. This standard requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract (“CCA”) to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The standard also requires entities to present implementation costs related to a CCA in the same financial statement line items as the CCA service fees. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 and is applying the transition guidance as of the date of adoption prospectively, under the current period adjustment method. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company reclassified $1.9 million of capitalized implementation costs related to a CCA that was in the implementation phase as of January 1, 2020 from property and equipment to prepaid expenses. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This standard modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820 related to the valuation techniques and inputs used in fair value measurements, uncertainty in measurement, and changes in measurements applied. This standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.


FASB Staff Q&A Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic (Topic 842): The FASB issued guidance on lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic allowing entities to make an election to account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic as if the enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed in the lease contract (regardless of whether those enforceable rights and obligations for the concessions explicitly exist in the lease contract). Consequently, for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, an entity will not have to analyze each contract to determine whether enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the contract and can elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance of Topic 842. The election only applies to concessions that do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee.

Pursuant to this FASB guidance, the Company has elected to account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic as if the rights and obligations related to such concessions existed in the related lease agreements. Accordingly, if a concession does not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the Company’s obligations as the lessee, the Company will elect to not account for the concession as a modification and will not remeasure the lease liability and right-of-use asset for such leases. If rent is deferred pursuant to a concession, such rents will be accrued pursuant to the existing terms of the lease, and the related liability will be relieved when the rental payment is made to the landlord pursuant to the terms of the concession. If rent is abated pursuant to a concession, the Company’s rent expense will be decreased by the amount of the abated rental payment in the period in which the payment was otherwise due pursuant to the existing terms of the lease.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had executed 19 agreements related to lease concessions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, which included a combination of rent deferrals and abatements. Under the terms of such agreements, rent payments subject to deferral are generally required to be paid between 1-42 months following the execution of the agreements based on the payment schedules specified in such agreements. The Company accounted for 5 of these agreements as modifications and remeasured the related lease liabilities as the concessions extended the lease terms and increased the Company’s overall obligations under the related lease agreements. The Company did not account for the remaining 14 agreements as modifications as the concessions did not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the Company as the lessee. Under these agreements, deferrals and abatements of rental payments were $394,000 and $583,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which included deferrals and abatements of $350,000 and $507,000, respectively, of payments under agreements that were not accounted for as modifications. As noted above, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, including IT’SUGAR and Hoffman’s Chocolates, are not in compliance with the terms of their lease agreements with respect to rents, including rents for July 2020, and remain in negotiations with the landlords of their retail locations for lease concessions for which agreements have not yet been reached, and there is no assurance that agreements for concessions will be reached on acceptable terms or at all. Although rent in many cases remains accrued and unpaid, the Company has continued to recognize lease costs related to such leases pursuant to the existing terms of such leases.

Future Adoption of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB has issued the following accounting pronouncements and guidance relevant to the Company’s operations which had not been adopted by the Company as of June 30, 2020:

ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 including exceptions related to (i) the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocations, (ii) accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments, and (iii) interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The statement is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 and interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This standard provides relief for companies preparing for discontinuation of LIBOR in response to the Financial Conduct Authority (the regulatory authority over LIBOR) plan for a phase out of regulatory oversight of LIBOR interest rate indices after 2021 to allow for an orderly transition to an alternate reference rate. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to LIBOR for promissory notes or other contracts that are currently indexed to LIBOR. The ARRC has proposed a market transition plan to SOFR from LIBOR, and organizations are currently working on transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to LIBOR. The Company currently has $85.5 million of LIBOR indexed receivable-backed notes payable and lines of credit,

$183.2 million of LIBOR indexed lines of credit and notes payable (which are not receivable-backed) that mature after 2021, and $177.1 million of LIBOR indexed junior subordinated debentures. Although companies can apply this standard immediately, the guidance will only be available for a limited time, generally through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the eventual replacement of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate could have on its results of operations, liquidity and consolidated financial statements and the related impact that this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
