UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 present the effects of the acquisitions of The Shops at Legacy and Beaver Creek Crossings as though they had occurred on January 1, 2020, the beginning of the earliest applicable reporting period.
The acquisitions of The Shops at Legacy and Beaver Creek Crossings were funded using (a) available cash, (b) 1031 like-kind exchange proceeds generated from certain of the Company’s previously completed property dispositions, (c) proceeds from the Company’s partial exercise of its accordion option on its existing term loan, and (d) proceeds from the Company’s revolving credit facility. The Shops at Legacy acquisition was structured as a reverse like-kind exchange in order to account for possible future dispositions of income properties by the Company.
Unaudited Pro Forma Financials. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financials are based on the estimates and assumptions as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K set forth in the notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Financials, which are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of developing such pro forma information. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financials are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or operating results that would have been achieved had the acquisition of the Properties occurred on the dates indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of the Company’s future financial position or operating results. Assumptions underlying the adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Financials are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Pro Forma Financials.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Summary is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Summary. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Historical Summary, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the Historical Summary in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Historical Summary referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and direct costs of revenues (described in Note 2) of the Property for the year ended December 31, 2020, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct Costs of Revenues
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 (Unaudited) and the Year Ended December 31, 2020
NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
On December 2, 2021 CTO Realty Growth, Inc. (the “Company” or “CTO”) completed the acquisition of a retail center in the Raleigh, North Carolina Metropolitan Area (the “Property” or “Beaver Creek Crossings”) from a partnership between (i) a real estate developer and owner and (ii) an institutional money manager (combined, the “Seller”) for a purchase price of $70.5 million.
The acquisition was funded using (a) available cash, (b) 1031 like-kind exchange proceeds generated from certain of the Company’s previously completed property dispositions and, (c) proceeds from the Company’s revolving credit facility.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying historical summary of revenues and direct costs of revenues (the “Historical Summary”) includes the operations of the Property and has been prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, the Historical Summary is not representative of the actual operations for the periods presented as revenues, and certain operating expenses, which may not be directly attributable to the revenues and expenses expected to be incurred in the future operations of the Property, have been excluded. Such items include depreciation, amortization, interest expense, interest income, and amortization of above- and below-market leases.
INCOME PROPERTY LEASE REVENUE
The rental arrangements associated with tenants of the Property are classified as operating leases. Accordingly, base rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Tenant reimbursement revenue is recognized as the related expenses are incurred and become recoverable from tenants. In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued interpretive guidance relating to the accounting for lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. In this guidance, entities can elect not to apply lease modification accounting with respect to such lease concessions and, instead, treat the concession as if it was a part of the existing contract. This guidance is only applicable to lease concessions related to the COVID-19 Pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to not apply lease modification accounting with respect to rent deferrals as the concessions were related to the COVID-19 Pandemic and there was not a substantial increase in the lessor’s rights under the lease agreement. Accordingly, for leases in which deferred rent agreements were reached, the Company has continued to account for the lease by recognizing the normal straight-line rental income and as the deferred rents are repaid by the tenant, the straight-line receivable will be reduced. With respect to rent abatement agreements, lease modification accounting applies as if an extended term was a part of such agreements; accordingly, the Company re-calculated straight-line rental income for such leases to recognize over the new lease term.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that in certain circumstances may affect the reported revenues. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.
COVID-19 PANDEMIC
In 2020, Beaver Creek Crossings experienced a short-term decrease in cash from operations as tenants were impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic and certain tenants’ rents were abated or deferred during the year. A prolonged imposition of mandated closures or other social-distancing guidelines as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic may adversely impact tenants’ ability to generate sufficient revenues, and could force additional tenants to default on their leases, or result in the bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants, which would diminish the rental revenue that the Company receives under the leases. The rapid development and fluidity of the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact on the Property. Certain repayments of rents deferred during the year ended December 31, 2020 occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 pursuant to the respective lease agreements.
NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the following tables summarize total revenues by major service for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 (in thousands):
