UMH PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2013 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

UMH Properties, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “us” or “the Company”) owns and operates sixty-eight manufactured home communities containing approximately 12,800 developed homesites.  The communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana and Michigan.  The Company, through its wholly-owned taxable subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. (S&F), conducts manufactured home sales in its communities. S&F was established to enhance the occupancy of the communities.  The consolidated financial statements of the Company include S&F and all of its other wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  The Company also invests in securities of other Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT in the future.  As a qualified REIT, with limited exceptions, the Company will not be taxed under federal and certain state income tax laws at the corporate level on taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders.  For special tax provisions applicable to REITs, refer to Sections 856-860 of the Code.  The Company is subject to franchise taxes in some of the states in which the Company owns property.

The interim Consolidated Financial Statements furnished herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) applicable to interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.  For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with US GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Assets and Liabilities, as well as contingent Assets and Liabilities as of the dates of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Revenue and Expenses for the years then ended.  Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions.

9

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for awards of stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period).  The compensation cost for stock option grants is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures.  The compensation expense for restricted stock is recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures.  The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Compensation costs of $276,797 and $409,377 have been recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $107,972 and $215,944 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

On February 28, 2013, the Company granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock to one participant under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended.  The exercise price is $10.02 and the expiration date is February 28, 2021.  The grant date fair value of this option amounted to approximately $13,000.  This grant vests over 1 year.  

On June 13, 2013, the shareholders approved and ratified the Company's 2013 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the Plan) authorizing the grant to officers and key employees of options to purchase up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock.  All options are exercisable one year from the date of grant.  The option price shall not be below the fair market value at date of grant.  If options granted under the Plan expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the shares subject to, but not delivered under, such options shall become available for additional option grants under the Plan.  This Plan replaced the Company's 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, which, pursuant to its terms, terminated in 2013.  The outstanding options under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, remain outstanding until exercised, forfeited or expired.

On June 26, 2013, the Company granted options to purchase 382,000 shares of common stock to twenty four participants under the Plan, including an option to purchase 100,000 shares to Eugene W. Landy.  The exercise price is $10.08 and the expiration date is June 26, 2021.  The grant date fair value of these options amounted to approximately $542,400.  This grant vests over 1 year.  Compensation costs for grants to participants who are of retirement age were recognized at time of grant.  

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	2013
Dividend yield	6.67%
Expected volatility	32.37%
Risk-free interest rate	1.96%
Expected lives	8
Estimated forfeitures	-0-

10

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.42.  

As of June 30, 2013, there were options outstanding to purchase 1,127,000 shares.  There were 2,618,000 shares available for grant under the Plan.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, options to one employee to purchase a total of 50,000 shares expired.  The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of June 30, 2013 was $665,793.  As of June 30, 2012, there were options outstanding to purchase 725,000 shares and 632,188 shares were available for grant under the Company’s 2003 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan, as amended.  

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to financialmarket risks, including interest rate risk on our variable rate debt.  We attempt to limit these risks by following established risk management policies, procedures and strategies, including the use of derivative financial instruments.  The Company's primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that changes in interest rates could have on its future cash flows.  The Company generally employs derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt.  The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.  The Company had entered into various interest rate swap agreements that had the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans.  

During 2012, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements that have the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans as follows:

Mortgage	Due Date	Mortgage Interest Rate	Effective Fixed Rate	Balance 6/30/13
Allentown/Clinton	2/1/2017	LIBOR + 3.25%	4.39%	$10,982,192
Various – 11 properties	8/1/2017	LIBOR + 3.00%	3.89%	$13,319,794

The Company's interest rate swap agreements are based upon 30-day LIBOR.  The re-pricing and scheduled maturity dates, payment dates, index and the notional amounts of the interest rate swap agreements coincide with those of the underlying mortgage.  The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly.  The Company has designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges and has recorded the fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (See Note 7 for information on the determination of fair value).  The effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges will be reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.  To the extent that the hedging relationships are not effective or do not qualify as cash flow hedges, the ineffective portion is recorded in Interest Expense.  Hedges that received designated hedge accounting treatment are evaluated for effectiveness at the time that they are designated as well as through the hedging period.  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has determined that these interest rate swap agreements are highly effective as cash flow hedges.  As a result, the fair value of these derivatives of $13,477 and $(377,795), respectively, was recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, with the corresponding liability included in Accrued Liabilities and Deposits.

11

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.  ASU 2013-02 does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements.  However, ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under US GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period.  For other amounts that are not required under US GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under US GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively, for reporting periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Certain amounts in the financial statements for the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the statement presentation for the current periods.

NOTE 2 – NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method.  Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of -0- and 88,089 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, are included in the diluted weighted shares outstanding.  Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 65,023 and 61,535 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, are included in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.  As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 1,127,000 and 522,000 shares, respectively, were antidilutive.

 Included in Accrued Liability and Deposits

The Company is required to disclose certain information about fair values of financial instruments, as defined in ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments.  Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time, based upon, where available, relevant market prices and information about the financial instrument.  Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. All of the Company’s Securities Available for Sale have quoted market prices and are therefore classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.  A quoted market price is indirectly available for our interest rate swap.  This price is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows, and reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs.  As such, we have determined that the valuation of this interest rate swap is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

For a portion of the Company's other financial instruments, no quoted market value exists.  Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions (many of which involve events outside the control of management).  Such assumptions include assessments of current economic conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments and their counterparties, future expected loss experience and other factors.  Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only and,

16

therefore, cannot be compared to the historical accounting model.  Use of different assumptions or methodologies is likely to result in significantly different fair value estimates.

The fair value of Cash and Cash Equivalents and Notes Receivable approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term in nature.  The fair value of Variable Rate Mortgages Payable and Loans Payable approximate their current carrying amounts since such amounts payable are at approximately a weighted-average current market rate of interest.   As of June 30, 2013, the fair and carrying value of Fixed Rate Mortgages Payable amounted to $124,236,410 and $122,115,270, respectively.  The fair value of Mortgages Payable is estimated based upon discounted cash flows at current market rates for instruments with similar remaining terms.

NOTE 8 -  CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

From time to time, the Company may be subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business.  Management does not believe that any such claims or litigation has a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations.

In 2010, a rainstorm bringing 13 inches of rain in a two-hour period caused flooding at Memphis Mobile City.  All homes owned by the Company were fully restored as were the homes of all residents who elected to make repairs. On May 9, 2011, the Company was notified that a lawsuit had been filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee on behalf of a purported class of all individuals of Mexican national origin who are current or former residents of Memphis Mobile City. The Complaint alleges various claims based on federal and state discrimination and consumer protection laws, seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief. The Complaint was served on August 29, 2011.  The Company believes the action to be without merit and plans to defend it vigorously.  The Company’s insurance company is supporting its defense of this action.  

The Company has entered into definitive agreements to purchase fourteen manufactured home communities with a total of approximately 1,620 sites.  These communities are located in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York.   The aggregate purchase price of these communities totals approximately $38 million.  In conjunction with the purchase of these communities, the Company will assume mortgages totaling approximately $26 million.  Subject to satisfactory due diligence, we anticipate closing these transactions during fiscal 2013 or early 2014.

NOTE 9 - SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

Cash paid for interest during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $3,768,845 and $2,871,252, respectively.  Interest cost capitalized to Land Development was $72,084 and $140,806 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.   

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had Dividend Reinvestments of $873,610 and $688,870, respectively, which required no cash transfers.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere herein and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company is a self-administered, self-managed, REIT with headquarters in Freehold, New Jersey.  The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of manufactured

18

home communities – leasing manufactured home spaces on an annual or month-to-month basis to private manufactured home owners.  The Company also leases homes to residents and, through its taxable REIT subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. (S&F), sells and finances homes to qualified residents and prospective residents of our communities.  At June 30, 2013, the Company owned sixty-eight manufactured home communities containing approximately 12,800 developed homesites.  These communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana and Michigan.  The Company also invests in securities of other REITs.

The Company’s income primarily consists of Rental and Related Income from the operation of its manufactured home communities.  Income also includes sales of manufactured homes as well as sales finance operations. 

Although current economic indicators show the US economy to be improving, the rate of recovery has been much slower than anticipated.  However, activity in our communities has recently increased.  Occupancy has increased from 80% at year-end to 82% currently.  We are seeing increased demand for rental units and during 2013, have added a net of approximately 160 rental units to selected communities as well as acquired 300 rental units with fiscal 2013 community acquisitions.  Occupied rental units represent approximately 14% of total occupied sites at quarter end.  We hope to convert renters to new homeowners in the future. We will continue to monitor the demand for rental units and may invest in additional rentals in the second half of 2013.

The Company also holds a portfolio of securities of other REITs with a fair value of $50,322,492 at June 30, 2013, which earns Dividend and Interest Income.  The dividends received from our securities investments were at a weighted-average yield of approximately 6.6% as of June 30, 2013.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized Gains on Sales of Securities of $3,681,010.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had net unrealized gains of $5,225,929 in its REIT securities portfolio.  The Company invests in REIT securities on margin from time to time when the Company can achieve an adequate yield spread. The REIT securities portfolio provides the Company with liquidity and additional income and serves as a proxy for real property investments.  

The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments.  In 2011 and 2012, we added twenty-two manufactured home communities, encompassing approximately 2,600 developed homesites, to our portfolio. On March 1, 2013, the Company acquired 10 manufactured home communities for approximately $67.5 million. These 10 all-age communities total 1,854 sites and are situated on approximately 400 acres. Five of these ten communities are located in Indiana, four communities are located in Pennsylvania, and one community is located in Michigan. The average occupancy for these communities at closing was approximately 85%.  On April 2, 2013, the Company acquired Holiday Mobile Village, a 274-site manufactured home community situated on approximately 68 acres, located in Nashville, Tennessee, for a purchase price of approximately $7.3 million.  The occupancy for this community at closing was approximately 82%.  We have been positioning ourselves for future growth and will continue to seek opportunistic investments.

19

The Company has entered into definitive agreements to purchase fourteen manufactured home communities with a total of approximately 1,620 sites.  These communities are located in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York.   The aggregate purchase price of these communities totals  approximately $38 million.  In conjunction with the purchase of these communities, the Company will assume mortgages totaling approximately $26 million.  Subject to satisfactory due diligence, we anticipate closing these transactions during fiscal 2013 or early 2014.

See PART I, Item 1 – Business in the Company’s 2012 annual report on Form 10-K for a more complete discussion of the economic and industry-wide factors relevant to the Company and the opportunities and challenges, and risks on which the Company is focused.   

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of Assets and Liabilities, Revenues and Expenses, and related disclosure of contingent Assets and Liabilities at the date of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

On a regular basis, management evaluates our assumptions, judgments and estimates.  Management believes there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our significant accounting policies and estimates under Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Changes In Results Of Operations

Rental and Related Income increased 54% from $8,906,992 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $13,755,391 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Rental and Related Income increased 44% from $17,667,035 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $25,397,577 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This was primarily due to the acquisitions made during 2012 and 2013, and an increase in rental home income.  Occupancy increased from 78% at June 30, 2012 to 82% at June 30, 2013.

Sales of manufactured homes amounted to $2,342,534 and $2,237,037 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Sales of manufactured homes amounted to $4,126,643 and $4,367,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Cost of Sales of manufactured homes amounted to $1,978,468 and $2,068,077 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Cost of Sales of manufactured homes amounted to $3,501,000 and $4,040,403 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Selling Expenses amounted to $429,960 and $628,682 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Selling Expenses amounted to $938,862 and $1,059,745 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These decreases are directly attributable to the decrease in sales.  Loss from

20

the Sales Operations (defined as Sales of manufactured homes less Cost of Sales of manufactured homes less Selling Expenses) amounted to $65,894 or 3% of total sales and $459,722 or 21% of total sales for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Loss from the Sales Operations amounted to $313,219 or 8% of total sales and $732,208 or 17% of total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The gross profit percentage was 16% and 8% for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The gross profit percentage was 15% and 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  This was the result of an increase in sales prices.  The Company believes that the sale of new homes produces new rental revenue and is an investment in the upgrading of the communities.

Community Operating Expenses increased 42% from $4,879,904 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $6,919,124 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Community Operating Expenses increased 33% from $9,674,174 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $12,866,489 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases are primarily due to the acquisitions during 2013 and 2012.

General and Administrative Expenses increased 27% from $1,202,972 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $1,522,152 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  General and Administrative Expenses increased 13% from $2,424,066 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $2,737,388 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This was primarily due to an increase in personnel and related costs.  Over the past four years, the Company has grown almost 88%, based on total number of homesites.

Franchise Taxes increased 100% from $33,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $66,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Franchise Taxes increased 100% from $66,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $132,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases are primarily due to the acquisitions during 2013 and 2012.

Acquisition Costs increased 45% from $187,284 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $271,709 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Acquisition Costs increased 220% from $269,941 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $862,777 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.   Acquisition Costs relate to transaction, due diligence and other related costs associated with the acquisitions of the communities. 

Depreciation Expense increased 78% from $1,692,130 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $3,009,240 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Depreciation Expense increased 64% from $3,301,421 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $5,399,094 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases are primarily due to the acquisitions during 2013 and 2012.

Interest Income increased 11% from $497,826 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 to $550,194 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Interest Income increased 12% from $975,775 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $1,088,326 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This was primarily due to an increase in Notes Receivable.  The average balance of Notes Receivable was approximately $22,390,000 and $20,087,000 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

21

Dividend Income remained relatively stable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Gain on Securities Transactions, net amounted to $370,982 and $1,068,354 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Gain on Securities Transactions, net amounted to $3,681,010 and $2,281,066 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had net unrealized gains of $5,225,929 in its REIT securities portfolio.  The dividends received from our securities investments continue to meet our expectations.  It is our intent to hold these securities long-term.

Other Income decreased 83% from $535,855 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $88,702 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Other Income decreased 79% from $555,259 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $117,782 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.   The decreases were primarily due to the amount received on an oil and gas lease on a community in the second quarter of 2012.

Interest Expense increased 53% from $1,234,469 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1,891,325 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest Expense increased 34% from $2,666,167 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $3,571,134 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases are primarily due to the new loan for the ten community acquisition in 2013 and the new loan for the eleven community acquisition in 2012.  The Company has reduced its weighted average interest rate on our mortgages 18.5% from 5.4% at June 30, 2012 to 4.4% at June 30, 2013.

Amortization of Financing Costs increased 31% from $73,413 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $96,190 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Amortization of Financing Costs increased 20% from $139,326 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $167,380 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases are primarily due to the new mortgage for the acquisition of 10 communities in March 2013.

Income from Community Operations (defined as Rental and Related Income less Community Operating Expenses) amounted to $6,836,267 and $4,027,088 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Income from Community Operations amounted to $12,531,088 and $7,992,861 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  These increases are primarily due to the acquisitions during 2013 and 2012.

Changes in Financial Condition

Total Investment Property and Equipment increased 33% or $85,895,407 during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of 11 communities for a purchase price of $74,750,000, which included approximately 300 rental units.  The Company also added approximately 160 rental units to its existing communities.

Securities Available for Sale decreased 12% or $7,002,948 during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The decrease was due to sales with a cost of $13,296,576 and a decrease in the unrealized gain of $1,388,027.  This decrease was partially offset by purchases of Securities

22

Available for Sale of $7,681,655.  

Mortgages Payable increased 42% or $46,126,290 during the six months ended June 30, 2013. This increase was due to one new mortgage totaling $53,760,000 partially offset by principal repayments of $7,633,710.  The principal repayment amount included the payoff of the mortgages on Cranberry Village and Forest Park that amounted to approximately $5,700,000.

Loans Payable increased 256% or $26,679,248 during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This increase was mainly due to the draw of $20,000,000 on the BMO Line in anticipation of the acquisition of Holiday Mobile Village and for other corporate purposes.

The Company raised $15,140,840 from the issuance of common stock in the DRIP during the six months ended June 30, 2013, which included Dividend Reinvestments of $873,610.  Dividends paid on the common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $6,450,545, of which $873,610 were reinvested.  Dividends paid on the preferred stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $3,778,294.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal liquidity demands have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, distributions to the Company’s stockholders, acquisitions, capital improvements, development and expansions of properties, debt service, purchases of manufactured home inventory, investment in securities of other REITs and payments of expenses relating to real estate operations.  We anticipate that the liquidity demands of the recent properties acquired will be met by the operations of these acquisitions.  The Company’s ability to generate cash adequate to meet these demands is dependent primarily on income from its real estate investments and securities portfolio, the sale of real estate investments and securities, refinancing of mortgage debt, leveraging of real estate investments, availability of bank borrowings, lines of credit, proceeds from the DRIP, and access to the capital markets.

Current economic indicators show the US economy to be slowly improving.  The affordability of our homes should enable the Company to perform well despite the challenging economy.  While the recent recession has proven difficult, manufactured home communities are considered to be more stable than other housing types because of their low site rents and lower-priced homes and rental units.  

The Company uses a variety of sources to fund its cash needs in addition to cash generated through operations.  The Company may sell marketable securities, borrow on its lines of credit, finance and refinance its properties, and/or raise capital through the DRIP and capital markets.  

On March 29, 2013, the Company entered into a new $35 million Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of Montreal.  The Company has the ability to increase the borrowing capacity by an additional amount not to exceed $15 million, representing a maximum aggregate borrowing capacity of $50 million, subject to various conditions, as defined in the agreement.  On April 1, 2013, the Company borrowed $20,000,000 on the BMO Line in anticipation of the

23

acquisition of Holiday Mobile Village and for other corporate purposes.  

Net Cash provided by Operating Activities amounted to $3,768,504 and $4,075,109 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company had Cash and Cash Equivalents of $14.3 million, Securities Available for Sale of $50.3 million, $15.0 million available on its BMO Line, and $8.0 million available on its revolving lines of credit for the financing of home sales and the purchase of inventory.  The Company owns 68 properties, of which 25 are unencumbered.  These marketable securities, non-mortgaged properties, and lines of credit provide the Company with additional liquidity.   The Company has been raising capital through its DRIP and through public offerings of its preferred stock.

The Company believes that funds generated will be adequate to meet its obligations over the next several years.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Funds From Operations

We assess and measure our overall operating results based upon an industry performance measure referred to as Funds From Operations (FFO), which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance.  FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of a REIT.  FFO, as defined by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), represents Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders, as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), excluding Extraordinary Items, as defined under US GAAP, Gains or Losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, Impairment Charges related to depreciable real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as Real Estate Asset Depreciation and Amortization.  NAREIT created FFO as a non-US GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance.  We define Core Funds From Operations (Core FFO), as FFO plus Acquisition Costs.  FFO and Core FFO should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by REITs.  FFO and Core FFO exclude historical Cost Depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have different cost bases.  The items excluded from FFO and Core FFO are significant components in understanding the Company’s financial performance.

FFO and Core FFO (i) do not represent Cash Flow from Operations as defined by US GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to Net Income as a measure of operating performance or to Cash Flows from Operating, Investing and Financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity.  FFO and Core FFO, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs.  

24

The Company’s FFO and Core FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are calculated as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	6/30/13	6/30/12	6/30/13	6/30/12
Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders	$(269,708)	$1,088,321	$1,990,656	$2,147,699
Depreciation Expense	3,009,240	1,692,130	5,399,094	3,301,421
Loss on Sales of Depreciable Assets	52,048	23,973	64,909	10,841
FFO Attributable to Common Shareholders	2,791,580	2,804,424	7,454,659	5,459,961
Acquisition Costs	271,709	187,284	862,777	269,941
Core FFO Attributable to Common Shareholders	$3,063,289	$2,991,708	$8,317,436	$5,729,902

The following are the cash flows provided (used) by operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	2013	2012
Operating Activities	$3,768,504	$4,075,109

Organization and Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with US GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Assets and Liabilities, as well as contingent Assets and Liabilities as of the dates of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Revenue and Expenses for the years then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for awards of stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). The compensation cost for stock option grants is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures. The compensation expense for restricted stock is recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures. The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Compensation costs of $276,797 and $409,377 have been recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $107,972 and $215,944 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

On February 28, 2013, the Company granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock to one participant under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended. The exercise price is $10.02 and the expiration date is February 28, 2021. The grant date fair value of this option amounted to approximately $13,000. This grant vests over 1 year.

On June 13, 2013, the shareholders approved and ratified the Company's 2013 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the Plan) authorizing the grant to officers and key employees of options to purchase up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock. All options are exercisable one year from the date of grant. The option price shall not be below the fair market value at date of grant. If options granted under the Plan expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the shares subject to, but not delivered under, such options shall become available for additional option grants under the Plan. This Plan replaced the Company's 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, which, pursuant to its terms, terminated in 2013. The outstanding options under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, remain outstanding until exercised, forfeited or expired.

On June 26, 2013, the Company granted options to purchase 382,000 shares of common stock to twenty four participants under the Plan, including an option to purchase 100,000 shares to Eugene W. Landy. The exercise price is $10.08 and the expiration date is June 26, 2021. The grant date fair value of these options amounted to approximately $542,400. This grant vests over 1 year. Compensation costs for grants to participants who are of retirement age were recognized at time of grant.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	2013
Dividend yield		6.67	%
Expected volatility		32.37	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.96	%
Expected lives		8
Estimated forfeitures		-0-

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.42.

As of June 30, 2013, there were options outstanding to purchase 1,127,000 shares. There were 2,618,000 shares available for grant under the Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, options to one employee to purchase a total of 50,000 shares expired. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of June 30, 2013 was $665,793. As of June 30, 2012, there were options outstanding to purchase 725,000 shares and 632,188 shares were available for grant under the Company’s 2003 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan, as amended.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to financial market risks, including interest rate risk on our variable rate debt. We attempt to limit these risks by following established risk management policies, procedures and strategies, including the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company's primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that changes in interest rates could have on its future cash flows. The Company generally employs derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The Company had entered into various interest rate swap agreements that had the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans.

During 2012, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements that have the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans as follows:

Mortgage	Due Date	Mortgage Interest Rate	Effective Fixed Rate			Balance 6/30/13
Allentown/Clinton	2/1/2017	LIBOR + 3.25%		4.39	%	$	10,982,192
Various – 11 properties	8/1/2017	LIBOR + 3.00%		3.89	%	$	13,319,794

The Company's interest rate swap agreements are based upon 30-day LIBOR. The re-pricing and scheduled maturity dates, payment dates, index and the notional amounts of the interest rate swap agreements coincide with those of the underlying mortgage. The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly. The Company has designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges and has recorded the fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (See Note 7 for information on the determination of fair value). The effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges will be reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. To the extent that the hedging relationships are not effective or do not qualify as cash flow hedges, the ineffective portion is recorded in Interest Expense. Hedges that received designated hedge accounting treatment are evaluated for effectiveness at the time that they are designated as well as through the hedging period. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has determined that these interest rate swap agreements are highly effective as cash flow hedges. As a result, the fair value of these derivatives of $13,477 and $(377,795), respectively, was recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, with the corresponding liability included in Accrued Liabilities and Deposits.

New Accounting Pronouncements or Change in Accounting Principle [Line Items]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU 2013-02 does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under US GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under US GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under US GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively, for reporting periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

NOTE 2 – NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding for the period. Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of -0- and 88,089 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, are included in the diluted weighted shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 65,023 and 61,535 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, are included in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 1,127,000 and 522,000 shares, respectively, were antidilutive.

LOANS AND MORTGAGES PAYABLE

NOTE 5 – LOANS AND MORTGAGES PAYABLE

On February 27, 2013, the Company had one mortgage loan due for D&R Village and Waterfalls Village with a balance of approximately $7,400,000. Under the terms of the loan agreement, this loan may be extended for an additional two years. Management has extended this loan to February 27, 2015. Interest during the extension period is at LIBOR plus 225 basis points.

On March 1, 2013, the Company obtained a $53,760,000 mortgage loan from JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. on its 10 community acquisition. The Company also included 3 additional communities in this mortgage. Interest on the mortgage loan is fixed at 4.065%. This mortgage loan matures on March 1, 2023.

On March 29, 2013, the Company entered into a new $35 million Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of Montreal (“BMO Line”). The Company has the ability to increase the borrowing capacity by an amount not to exceed $15 million, representing a maximum aggregate borrowing capacity of $50 million, subject to various conditions, as defined in the agreement. The maturity date of the BMO Line is March 29, 2016 with a one year extension available at the Company’s option. Borrowings under the BMO Line can be used for, among other things, acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, and repayment of other indebtedness. Borrowings will bear interest at the Company’s option of LIBOR plus 2.00% to 2.75% or BMO’s prime lending rate plus 1.00% to 1.75%, based on the Company’s overall leverage. The Company will pay a fee on the unused commitment amount of up to 0.35% per annum. The BMO Line replaces the Company’s current $5.0 million unsecured line of credit. On April 1, 2013, the Company borrowed $20,000,000 on the BMO Line in anticipation of the acquisition of Holiday Mobile Village and for other corporate purposes. Based on the current leverage ratio, interest on this borrowing is at LIBOR plus 225 basis points.

On April 3, 2013, the Company repaid its mortgages on Cranberry Village and Forest Park for a total amount of approximately $5,700,000. The interest rate on these mortgages was 6.8%.

In June 2013, the Company modified its mortgage on Sunny Acres and Suburban Estates. The interest rate was reduced from a fixed rate of 6.5% to a fixed rate of 4.0%. The maturity date was accelerated from June 1, 2020 to June 1, 2018.

CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

NOTE 8 - CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

From time to time, the Company may be subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that any such claims or litigation has a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations.

In 2010, a rainstorm bringing 13 inches of rain in a two-hour period caused flooding at Memphis Mobile City. All homes owned by the Company were fully restored as were the homes of all residents who elected to make repairs. On May 9, 2011, the Company was notified that a lawsuit had been filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee on behalf of a purported class of all individuals of Mexican national origin who are current or former residents of Memphis Mobile City. The Complaint alleges various claims based on federal and state discrimination and consumer protection laws, seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief. The Complaint was served on August 29, 2011. The Company believes the action to be without merit and plans to defend it vigorously. The Company’s insurance company is supporting its defense of this action.

The Company has entered into definitive agreements to purchase fourteen manufactured home communities with a total of approximately 1,620 sites. These communities are located in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. The aggregate purchase price of these communities totals approximately $38 million. In conjunction with the purchase of these communities, the Company will assume mortgages totaling approximately $26 million. Subject to satisfactory due diligence, we anticipate closing these transactions during fiscal 2013 or early 2014.

(1) Included in Accrued Liability and Deposits

The Company is required to disclose certain information about fair values of financial instruments, as defined in ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments. Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time, based upon, where available, relevant market prices and information about the financial instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. All of the Company’s Securities Available for Sale have quoted market prices and are therefore classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. A quoted market price is indirectly available for our interest rate swap. This price is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows, and reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs. As such, we have determined that the valuation of this interest rate swap is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

For a portion of the Company's other financial instruments, no quoted market value exists. Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions (many of which involve events outside the control of management). Such assumptions include assessments of current economic conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments and their counterparties, future expected loss experience and other factors. Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only and, therefore, cannot be compared to the historical accounting model. Use of different assumptions or methodologies is likely to result in significantly different fair value estimates.

The fair value of Cash and Cash Equivalents and Notes Receivable approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term in nature. The fair value of Variable Rate Mortgages Payable and Loans Payable approximate their current carrying amounts since such amounts payable are at approximately a weighted-average current market rate of interest. As of June 30, 2013, the fair and carrying value of Fixed Rate Mortgages Payable amounted to $124,236,410 and $122,115,270, respectively. The fair value of Mortgages Payable is estimated based upon discounted cash flows at current market rates for instruments with similar remaining terms.

Organization and Accounting Policies [Abstract]

ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

UMH Properties, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “us” or “the Company”) owns and operates sixty-eight manufactured home communities containing approximately 12,800 developed homesites. The communities are located in New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana and Michigan. The Company, through its wholly-owned taxable subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. (S&F), conducts manufactured home sales in its communities. S&F was established to enhance the occupancy of the communities. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include S&F and all of its other wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company also invests in securities of other Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT in the future. As a qualified REIT, with limited exceptions, the Company will not be taxed under federal and certain state income tax laws at the corporate level on taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders. For special tax provisions applicable to REITs, refer to Sections 856-860 of the Code. The Company is subject to franchise taxes in some of the states in which the Company owns property.

The interim Consolidated Financial Statements furnished herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) applicable to interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with US GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Assets and Liabilities, as well as contingent Assets and Liabilities as of the dates of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Revenue and Expenses for the years then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for awards of stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). The compensation cost for stock option grants is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures. The compensation expense for restricted stock is recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures. The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Compensation costs of $276,797 and $409,377 have been recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $107,972 and $215,944 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

On February 28, 2013, the Company granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock to one participant under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended. The exercise price is $10.02 and the expiration date is February 28, 2021. The grant date fair value of this option amounted to approximately $13,000. This grant vests over 1 year.

On June 13, 2013, the shareholders approved and ratified the Company's 2013 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the Plan) authorizing the grant to officers and key employees of options to purchase up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock. All options are exercisable one year from the date of grant. The option price shall not be below the fair market value at date of grant. If options granted under the Plan expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the shares subject to, but not delivered under, such options shall become available for additional option grants under the Plan. This Plan replaced the Company's 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, which, pursuant to its terms, terminated in 2013. The outstanding options under the 2003 Stock Option and Award Plan, as amended, remain outstanding until exercised, forfeited or expired.

On June 26, 2013, the Company granted options to purchase 382,000 shares of common stock to twenty four participants under the Plan, including an option to purchase 100,000 shares to Eugene W. Landy. The exercise price is $10.08 and the expiration date is June 26, 2021. The grant date fair value of these options amounted to approximately $542,400. This grant vests over 1 year. Compensation costs for grants to participants who are of retirement age were recognized at time of grant.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	2013
Dividend yield		6.67	%
Expected volatility		32.37	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.96	%
Expected lives		8
Estimated forfeitures		-0-

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.42.

As of June 30, 2013, there were options outstanding to purchase 1,127,000 shares. There were 2,618,000 shares available for grant under the Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, options to one employee to purchase a total of 50,000 shares expired. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of June 30, 2013 was $665,793. As of June 30, 2012, there were options outstanding to purchase 725,000 shares and 632,188 shares were available for grant under the Company’s 2003 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan, as amended.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to financial market risks, including interest rate risk on our variable rate debt. We attempt to limit these risks by following established risk management policies, procedures and strategies, including the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company's primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that changes in interest rates could have on its future cash flows. The Company generally employs derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The Company had entered into various interest rate swap agreements that had the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans.

During 2012, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements that have the effect of fixing interest rates relative to specific mortgage loans as follows:

LIBOR + 3.00%

3.89%$13,319,794

The Company's interest rate swap agreements are based upon 30-day LIBOR. The re-pricing and scheduled maturity dates, payment dates, index and the notional amounts of the interest rate swap agreements coincide with those of the underlying mortgage. The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly. The Company has designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges and has recorded the fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (See Note 7 for information on the determination of fair value). The effective portion of the gain or loss on these hedges will be reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. To the extent that the hedging relationships are not effective or do not qualify as cash flow hedges, the ineffective portion is recorded in Interest Expense. Hedges that received designated hedge accounting treatment are evaluated for effectiveness at the time that they are designated as well as through the hedging period. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has determined that these interest rate swap agreements are highly effective as cash flow hedges. As a result, the fair value of these derivatives of $13,477 and $(377,795), respectively, was recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, with the corresponding liability included in Accrued Liabilities and Deposits.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU 2013-02 does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under US GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under US GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under US GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively, for reporting periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the financial statements for the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the statement presentation for the current periods.
