NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Accounting Records and Use of Estimates:
The accounting records are maintained in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The
preparation of the Company's financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
estimates that we make include allowance for doubtful accounts,
depreciation and amortization, income tax assets and liabilities, fair
value of marketable securities and revenue recognition. Estimates are based
on historical experience where applicable or other assumptions that
management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the
inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may
differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
for reporting on Form 10-Q. The July 31, 2010 balance sheet was derived
from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures
required by GAAP. The interim financial statements and notes thereto
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
included in the Company's latest Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal
year ended July 31, 2010. In the opinion of management, the interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature
necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. The
results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative
of the results for the entire fiscal year ending July 31, 2011.
The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim
period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not
limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the
proportion of income (or loss), and permanent and temporary differences.
The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may
change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, or as additional
information is obtained. To the extent that the estimated annual effective
tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior
quarters is included in tax expense for the current quarter.
In the second quarter of 2011, the Company recorded an out-of-period tax
adjustment of approximately $65,000 related to the calculation of the 2010
income tax provision that was prepared during the 2010 year-end close and
related to the impact of the discontinued operations. We have performed an
evaluation to determine if the financial statement impacts resulting from
this error in accounting were material, considering both quantitative and
qualitative factors. Based on this materiality analysis, we concluded that
correcting the cumulative error would be immaterial to the expected current
year financial results and a correction of the error would not have a
material impact to any individual prior period financial statements.
2. Income Per Share of Common Stock:
Income per share has been computed by dividing the net income for the
periods by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the periods, adjusted for the purchase of treasury
stock. Shares used in computing income per share were 2,015,780 for the
six months ended January 31, 2011 and January 31, 2010.
3. Comprehensive Income:
FASB ASC 220-10 (formerly known as SFAS No. 130), "Reporting Comprehensive
Income", establishes standards for the reporting of comprehensive income
and its components. It requires all items that are required to be
recognized as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial
statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other income
statement information. Comprehensive income is defined to include all
changes in equity except those resulting from investments by and
distributions to shareholders.
-7-
4. Discontinued Operations:
The Company's lease with its landlords at the Jowein building in Brooklyn,
New York expired on April 30, 2010. The Company returned the premises in
"as is" condition and the Company will have no obligation to correct, cure
or take any action relating to repairing such premises other than the cure
of certain existing violations.
As part of the settlement the Company paid to the landlords' successor
("490 Owner") $1,000,000. The Company also transferred to 490 Owner title
to 484 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of
$4,490,000) subject to the existing tenancy and 490 Owner has caused title
to 14 Hanover Place, Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of
$900,000) to be transferred to the Company. The appraised values of the
two buildings were based upon a review of "comparables" (other properties
which are believed by the appraisers to be similar to the properties
subject to the appraisals). The appraised values of the two properties
were not derived from a negotiation between the parties as to the actual
purchase and sale prices for such properties since no such negotiation took
place. Nor were such appraised values derived using other valuation
methods, such as the net present value from cash flows. Accordingly, these
appraised values are merely estimated values of the properties. The
exchange was accounted for under ASC Topic 805 "Exchanges of Nonmonetary
Assets."
The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Retained Earnings have
been reclassified to show discontinued operations as a line item. The
Components are as follows:

5. Marketable Securities:
The Company categorizes marketable securities as either trading, available-
for-sale or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are carried at fair value
with unrealized gains and losses included in income. Available-for-sale
securities are carried at fair value measurements using quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities with unrealized gains
and losses recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Held-
to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Dividends and
interest income are accrued as earned. Realized gains and losses are
determined on a specific identification basis. The Company reviews
marketable securities for impairment whenever circumstances and situations
change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not
be recovered. The Company did not classify any securities as trading
during the six months ended January 31, 2011 and January 31, 2010. The
implementation of ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements, had no impact on the
presentation of marketable securities in the Company's financial
statements. During 2009, the Company adopted ASC 320-10-65, Transition
Related to FSB FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment ("ASC 320-10-65"). The implementation of
ASC 320-10-65 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements.
In accordance with the provisions of Fair Value Measurements, the following
are the entity's financial assets presented at fair value at January 31,
2011.

6. Financial Instruments and Credit Risk Concentrations:
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of marketable securities, cash and cash
equivalents and receivables. Marketable securities and cash and cash
equivalents are placed with multiple financial institutions and
instruments to minimize risk. No assurance can be made that such
financial institutions and instruments will minimize all such risk.
The Company derives rental income from fifty tenants, of which one tenant
accounted for 18.20% and another tenant accounted for 16.59% of rental
income during the six months ended January 31, 2011. No other tenant
accounted for more than 10% of rental income during the same period.
The Company has two irrevocable Letters of Credit totaling $297,500 at
January 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010, provided by two tenants.

============== ============== ============== ===============
(a) The Company, on September 11, 1996, closed a loan with a bank in the
amount of $4,000,000. The loan is secured by a first mortgage lien
covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant, in a
certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property. In
March 2007, the Company extended the loan for five years with an option for
an additional five year period. The interest rate for the initial five
years is 6.00% per annum. Interest and amortization of principal will be
made in constant monthly amounts based on a fifteen year (15) payout
period. The outstanding balance of the loan totaling $1,036,602 will
become due and payable on April 1, 2012.
(b) The Company, on December 13, 2000, closed a loan with a bank in the
amount of $3,500,000. The loan is secured by a second position leasehold
mortgage covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant,
in a certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property.
The outstanding balance of the loan, totaling $2,739,452, became due and
payable on October 1, 2006. The Company exercised its option to extend the
loan for a additional five (5) years. The interest rate for the extended
period is 6.81% per annum. The outstanding balance of the loan totaling
$2,077,680 will become due and payable on October 1, 2011. The Company has
not determined whether it will extend this loan or pay it in full upon
maturity.
As additional collateral security, the Company conditionally assigned to
the bank all leases and rents on the premises, or portions thereof, whether
now existing or hereafter consummated. The Company has an option to prepay
principal, in whole or in part, plus interest accrued thereon, at any time
during the term, without premium or penalty. Other provisions of the loan
agreement provide certain restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness on
the Jamaica property and the sale or transfer of the Company's ground lease
interest in the premises.
-11-
(c) On August 19, 2004, the Company extended the then existing loan for an
additional forty-two (42) months, with an option to convert the loan to a
seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. (See Note 7(d) below). The
Company in February 2008 converted the loan to a seven (7) year permanent
mortgage loan. The interest rate on conversion was 6.98%.
(d) The Company, on August 19, 2004, closed a loan with a bank for a
$12,000,000 multiple draw term loan. This loan finances seventy-five (75%)
percent of the cost of capital improvements for an existing lease to a
tenant and capital improvements for potential future tenant leases at the
Company's Brooklyn, New York (Bond Street building) and Fishkill, New York
properties through February 2008. The loan also financed $850,000 towards
the construction of two new elevators at the Company's Brooklyn, New York
property (Bond Street building). The loan consists of: a) a permanent,
first mortgage loan to refinance an existing first mortgage loan affecting
the Fishkill, New York property, which matured on July 1, 2004 (the "First
Permanent Loan")(see Note 7(c)), b) a permanent subordinate mortgage loan
in the amount of $1,870,000 (the "Second Permanent Loan"), and c) multiple,
successively subordinate loans in the amount $8,295,274 ("Subordinate
Building Loans"). As of August 19, 2004, the Company refinanced the
existing mortgage on the Company's Fishkill, New York property, which
balance was $1,834,726 and took down an additional $2,820,000 for capital
improvements for two tenants at the Company's Bond Street building in
Brooklyn, New York. In fiscal 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company drew down
additional amounts totaling $916,670, on its multiple draw term loan to
finance tenant improvements and brokerage commissions for the leasing of
13,026 square feet for office use at the Company's Bond Street building in
Brooklyn, New York. The Company in February 2008 converted the loan to a
seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan. The interest rate on conversion
was 6.98%. Since the loan has been converted to a permanent mortgage loan,
the balance of the financing on this loan was for the new elevators at the
Company's Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York in the amount of
$850,000 referred to above. The $850,000 was drawn down in fiscal 2010.
(e) The Company, on July 22, 2005, closed a loan with a bank for
$1,200,000. The loan was used to finance the construction costs and
brokerage commissions associated with the leasing of 15,000 square feet for
office use to a tenant at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New
York. The loan was secured by the assignment of lease of 15,000 square
feet. The loan was for a period of five (5) years and was self-amortizing,
at a floating interest rate of prime plus 1.00% per annum. The loan was
paid in full as of August 1, 2010.

13.Capitalization:
The Company is capitalized entirely through common stock with identical
voting rights and rights to liquidation. Treasury stock is recorded at
cost and consists of 162,517 shares at January 31, 2011 and at July 31,
2010.
14.Contingencies:
There are various lawsuits and claims pending against the Company. It is
the opinion of management that the resolution of these matters will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements.
In response to a termination notice that the Company received concerning
its tenancy in a portion of the Jowein building, Brooklyn, New York, on
April 25, 2007, the Company filed a lawsuit against its landlords in New
York State Supreme Court, Kings County. In the lawsuit, the Company sought
a judgment declaring that the landlords' termination notice was improperly
issued and that the Company was not required to correct or cure the
purported defaults cited in the termination notice. In addition, the
Company sought an order temporarily, preliminarily and permanently
enjoining the landlords from taking any action to terminate the lease or
otherwise interfere with the Company's possession of the premises.
The lawsuit that was brought by the Company against its prior landlords
concerning the Company's tenancy in a portion of the Jowein building at 490
Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York ("490 Fulton") has been dismissed
pursuant to a stipulation of discontinuance filed on June 1, 2010. The
dismissal of the lawsuit is with prejudice and includes all claims and
counterclaims relating to the Company's tenancy and the lawsuit.
In connection with the settlement, the Company has paid to the landlords'
successor ("490 Owner") $1,000,000. In return, 490 Owner has provided to
the Company general releases of past, present and future claims relating
to the lease of 490 Fulton from former landlords Snyder Fulton Street, LLC
and Fulton Interest, LLC and successor landlord 490 Owner.
The Company has transferred to 490 Owner title to 484 Fulton Street,
Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of $4,490,000) subject to the
existing tenancy and 490 Owner has caused title to 14 Hanover Place,
Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of $900,000) to be transferred
to the Company. The appraised values of the two buildings were merely
based upon a review of "comparables" (other properties which are believed
by the appraisers to be similar to the properties subject to the
appraisals). The appraised values of the two properties were not derived
from a negotiation between the parties as to the actual purchase and sale
prices for such properties since no such negotiation took place. Nor were
such appraised values derived using other valuation methods, such as the
net present value from cash flows. Accordingly, these appraised values are
merely estimated values of the properties.
-14-
The Company has entered into a 49-year lease with a designee of 490 Owner
for approximately 20,000 square feet in the basement, first and second
floors of 25 Elm Place, Brooklyn, New York at an annual rental of $100,000,
with 10% rent escalations every five years.
The Company surrendered to 490 Owner possession of 490 Fulton as of May 1,
2010 in "as is" condition and the Company has no obligation to correct,
cure or take any action relating to repairing such premises other than the
cure of certain existing violations as documented in the settlement
agreement. The Company retains rights to access and maintain certain
offices, equipment and systems in the alleyway between 490 Fulton and 25
Elm Place.
490 Owner will indemnify and hold the Company harmless from all claims by
its affiliates and the landlord concerning the Company's obligations under
its lease at 14 Hanover Place.
The Company is required to remove the foot bridge over Bond Street in
Brooklyn, New York by June 2012. The cost of the removal of the bridge is
$302,360. The removal of the foot bridge is anticipated to be completed in
March, 2011.
If the Company sells, transfers, disposes of or demolishes 25 Elm Place,
Brooklyn, New York, then the Company may be liable to create a condominium
unit for the loading dock. The necessity of creating the condominium unit
and the cost of such condominium unit cannot be determined at this time.
The Company has a commitment to do construction work in connection with a
new lease agreement for 18,218 square feet at the Company's Nine Bond
Street Brooklyn, New York building. The costs related to the construction
work are estimated at $1,500,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and
related notes thereto contained in this report. In this discussion, the words
"Company", "we", "our" and "us" refer to J.W. Mays, Inc. and subsidiaries.
Forward Looking Statements:
The following can be interpreted as including forward-looking statements under
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words "outlook",
"intend", "plans", "efforts", "anticipates", "believes", "expects" or words of
similar import typically identify such statements. Various important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in
the forward-looking statements are identified under the heading "Cautionary
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below. Our actual results may
vary significantly from the results contemplated by these forward-looking
statements based on a number of factors including, but not limited to,
availability of labor, marketing success, competitive conditions and the
change in economic conditions of the various markets we serve.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. We believe the critical accounting policies in Note 1 to the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements affect our more significant
judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and
conditions. (See Note 1 on page 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements herein and Note 1 on pages 8 and 9 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July
31, 2010).

Results of Operations:
Three Months Ended January 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended January
31, 2010:
In the three months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported net loss of
($182,974), or ($.09) per share. In the comparable three months ended January
31, 2010, the Company reported net income of $118,649, or $.06 per share.
In the three months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported net loss from
continuing operations of ($5,614), or ($.00) per share. In the comparable
three months ended January 31, 2010, the Company reported net income from
continuing operations of $110,503, or $.06 per share.
In the three months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported a net loss
from discontinued operations of ($177,360), or ($.09) per share. In the
comparable three months ended January 31, 2010, the Company reported net
income from discontinued operations of $8,146, or $.00 per share.
Revenues from continuing operations in the current three months increased to
$3,706,931 from $3,624,822 in the comparable 2010 three months.
Real estate operating expenses from continuing operations in the current three
months increased to $2,068,244 from $2,002,163 in the comparable 2010 three
months primarily due to an increase in maintenance expense, partially offset
by decreases in real estate taxes, insurance costs, utilities and rental
expense.
Administrative and general expenses from continuing operations in the current
three months increased to $1,024,686 from $927,586 in the comparable 2010
three months primarily due to increases in payroll costs, medical costs and
bad debt expense due to a tenant at the Company's Jamaica, New York building,
partially offset by decreases in insurance costs and legal and professional
costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations in the
current three months increased to $390,083 from $375,069 in the comparable
2010 three months. The increase was due to improvements on the Nine Bond
Street building in Brooklyn, New York.
Interest expense in the current three months exceeded investment income by
$138,532 and by $162,501 in the comparable 2010 three months. The decrease in
the excess of interest expense over investment income was due primarily to
scheduled repayments of debt.
Six Months Ended January 31, 2011 Compared to the Six Months Ended January 31,
2010:
In the six months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported net loss of
($8,019), or ($.01) per share. In the comparable six months ended January 31,
2010, the Company reported net income of $417,103, or $.21 per share.
In the six months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported net income from
continuing operations of $169,341, or $.08 per share. In the comparable six
months ended January 31, 2010, the Company reported net income from continuing
operations of $439,337, or $.22 per share.
In the six months ended January 31, 2011, the Company reported a net loss from
discontinued operations of ($177,360), or ($.09) per share. In the comparable
six months ended January 31, 2010, the Company reported a net loss from
discontinued operations of ($22,234), or ($.01) per share.
Revenues from continuing operations in the current six months decreased to
$7,315,221 from $7,378,074 in the comparable 2010 six months. The decrease in
revenues was primarily due to a real estate tax refund in the 2010 year (see
below).
There was a recovery of real estate taxes, net of legal expenses in the 2010
six months in the amount of $114,251. The comparable 2011 six months did not
have a recovery of real estate taxes.
-16-
Real estate operating expenses from continuing operations in the current six
months increased to $3,932,221 from $3,863,100 in the comparable 2010 six
months primarily due to an increase in maintenance expense, partially offset
by decreases in real estate taxes, insurance costs, utilities and rental
expense.
Administrative and general expenses from continuing operations in the current
six months increased to $1,898,859 from $1,799,604 in the comparable 2010 six
months primarily due to increases in payroll costs, medical costs and bad debt
expense due to a tenant at the Company's Jamaica, New York building, partially
offset by decreases in insurance costs and legal and professional costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations in the
current six months increased to $781,278 from $749,998 in the comparable 2010
six months. The increase was due to improvements on the Nine Bond Street
building in Brooklyn, New York.
Interest expense in the current six months exceeded investment income by
$293,522 and by $303,035 in the comparable 2010 six months. The decrease in
the excess of interest expense over investment income was due primarily to
scheduled repayments of debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
The Company has been operating as a real estate enterprise since the
discontinuance of the retail department store segment of its operations on
January 3, 1989.
Management considers current working capital and borrowing capabilities
adequate to cover the Company's planned operating and capital requirements.
The Company's cash and cash equivalents amounted to $2,793,348 at January 31,
2011.
In September 2009, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a drive-in
restaurant at the Company's Massapequa premises. The drive-in restaurant
intends to construct a new building. The tenant's occupancy is subject to it
receiving the necessary building permits and licenses to construct the
building and open for business within a reasonable time period. Rent is
anticipated to commence in late 2011. This will replace the tenant that
vacated the premises in April 2009. The rental income from this lease
agreement will more than offset the rental income lost from the previous
tenant.
In October, 2010, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a tenant for
18,218 square feet for office space at the Company's Nine Bond Street,
Brooklyn, New York building. The cost of construction and brokerage
commissions to the Company will be approximately $2,000,000. The Company
plans to finance these costs through operating funds. Rent is anticipated to
commence in late 2011.
Cash Flows From Operating Activities:
Deferred Charges: The Company had expenditures for brokerage commissions in
the six months ended January 31, 2011 in the amount of $475,140, relating to a

for brokerage commissions on renewals of existing tenant leases.
Payroll and Other Accrued Liabilities: The Company incurred $475,140 for
brokerage commissions in order to lease space at the Company's property in
Brooklyn, New York in the six months ended January 31, 2011. The Company also
incurred $169,740 for brokerage commissions on renewals of existing tenant
leases
Cash Flows From Investing Activities:
The Company had expenditures of $393,015 in the six months ended January 31,
2011 for the renovation of 18,218 square feet for office space for a tenant at
the Company's Nine Bond Street Brooklyn, New York building. The cost of the
project is estimated to be $1,500,000 and is anticipated to be completed in
June 2011.
The Company had expenditures of $302,360 in the six months ended January 31,
2011 for the removal of the foot bridge over Bond Street in Brooklyn, New
York. The removal of the foot bridge is anticipated to be completed in March
2011. (See note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:
This section, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, other sections of this Report on Form 10-Q and other
reports and verbal statements made by our representatives from time to time
may contain forward-looking statements that are based on our assumptions,
expectations and projections about us and the securities industry. These
include statements regarding our expectations about revenues, our liquidity,
our expenses and our continued growth, among others. Such forward-looking
statements by their nature involve a degree of risk and uncertainty. We
caution that a variety of factors, including but not limited to the factors
listed below, could cause business conditions and our results to differ
materially from what is contained in forward-looking statements:
changes in the rate of economic growth in the United States;
the ability to obtain credit from financial institutions and at what costs;
changes in the financial condition of our customers;
changes in regulatory environment;
lease cancellations;
changes in our estimates of costs;
war and/or terrorist attacks on facilities where services are or may be
provided;
outcomes of pending and future litigation;
increasing competition by other companies;
compliance with our loan covenants;
recoverability of claims against our customers and others by us and claims
by third parties against us; and
changes in estimates used in our critical accounting policies.
Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the
formation of these forward-looking statements and the failure of such other
assumptions to be realized, as well as other factors, may also cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are
difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You
should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any
forward-looking statements that may be made by us.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are
advised, however, to review any additional disclosures we make in proxy
statements, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K and
Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
-18-
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks:
The Company uses fixed-rate debt to finance its capital requirements. These
transactions expose the Company to market risk related to changes in interest
rates. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. At January
31, 2011, the Company had fixed-rate debt of $10,274,600.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures:
The Company's management reviewed the Company's internal controls and
procedures and the effectiveness of these controls. As of January 31, 2011,
the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to
Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based
upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective
in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company
required to be included in its periodic SEC filings.
There was no change in the Company's internal controls over financial
reporting or in other factors during the Company's last fiscal quarter that
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal controls over financial reporting. There were no
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and therefore there were no
corrective actions taken.
