Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors
National Consumer Title Group, LLC
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of National Consumer Title Group, LLC (the Company) which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of operations, changes in members' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 and for the period June 1, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 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 financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 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 financial statements 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of National Consumer Title Group, LLC as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 and for the period June 1, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

National Consumer Title Group, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
Year ended December 31, 2020 and for the period
June 1, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
National Consumer Title Group, LLC (the Company) began operations on June 1, 2019 (inception) as an investment holding company and is organized under the laws of the state of Florida.
|
Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The significant accounting practices and polices are summarized as follows:
|
Revenue Recognition and Concentration |
The Company’s only source of operating revenue is management fees for providing administrative and management services to Title Agency Ventures, LLC (TAV), an affiliate through common management and ownership. TAV is the Company's only customer. The Company recognizes its management fee revenue as services are provided.
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly‑liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits with financial institutions and investments in highly‑liquid money market securities.
Investments
The Company evaluates its investments in accordance with the variable interest model to determine if it has a controlling financial interest in an investment. This evaluation is made as of the date on which the Company makes its initial investment, and subsequent evaluations are made if the structure of the investment changes. The Company generally consolidates investments in which it holds a controlling ownership interest of greater than 50%. When the Company consolidates less than wholly‑owned subsidiaries, it discloses its noncontrolling interest in its financial statements.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities in which it has significant influence; generally, this represents an ownership interest of between 20% and 50%. A decline in value that is determined to be other‑than‑temporary is recorded as an impairment charge as a component of earnings in the period in which that determination is made.
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
|
Concentration of Credit Risk |
The Company's concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of its cash and cash equivalents, equity method investment, and operating revenues. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at several financial institutions. Deposits with financial institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 per depositor. Bank deposits at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
|
Income Taxes |
The Company has elected to be taxed as a partnership under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, taxes are paid at the member level, not at the Company level. Accordingly, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the financial statements.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 12, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. During the period from December 31, 2020 to November 12, 2021, the Company did not have any material recognizable subsequent events, except for the matters described in Note 5.
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The fair value of financial instruments represents estimates of fair values at a specific point in time determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment in the interpretation of current market data. Therefore, the fair values presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize or settle currently.
The level in the fair value hierarchy within which fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, due from affiliate, and due to affiliate approximate their fair value.
|
Use of Estimates |
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 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Equity Method Investment
The Company owns a 50% noncontrolling membership interest in TAV, which owns 100% of the membership interest in Omega National Title Agency, LLC (Omega), a Florida‑based title agency. Omega operates 10 title agency locations in Florida providing title agency services for residential and commercial real estate transactions.
2. Equity Method Investment (continued)

|
3. Related Party Transactions |
The Company has a service agreement with TAV, an affiliate through common management and ownership. Under terms of the agreement, the Company provides administrative and management services to TAV for a fee equal to 20% of TAV’s earnings (prior to calculation of the fee due to the Company). The Company recorded management fee income of $162,226 and $58,463 for 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the agreement. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company was owed $221,372 and $58,463, respectively, from TAV in fees, which are presented as due from affiliate on the balance sheets.
The Company owed $10,000 at December 31, 2020 and 2019, to Preferred Managing Agency, LLC (PMA), an affiliate through common management, for an advance received by the Company from PMA to help with the startup of operations.
|
4. Members' Equity |
The Company had one class of ownership units at December 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company received capital contributions from its members of $220,000 and $1,980,000 in 2020 and 2019, respectively.
|
5. Subsequent Events |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Nature of Operations
National Consumer Title Group, LLC (the Company) began operations on June 1, 2019 (inception) as an investment holding company and is organized under the laws of the state of Florida.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The significant accounting practices and policies are summarized as follows:
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues as services are provided. The Company’s primary source of operating revenue is management fees for providing administrative and management services to Title Agency Ventures, LLC (TAV), an affiliate through common management and ownership.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits with financial institutions and investments in highly-liquid money market securities.
Investments
The Company evaluates its investments in accordance with the variable interest model to determine if it has a controlling financial interest in an investment. This evaluation is made as of the date on which the Company makes its initial investment, and subsequent evaluations are made if the structure of the investment changes. The Company generally consolidates investments in which it holds a controlling ownership interest of greater than 50%. When the Company consolidates less than wholly-owned subsidiaries, it discloses its noncontrolling interest in its financial statements.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities in which it has a significant influence; generally, this represents an ownership interest of between 20% and 50%. A decline in value that is determined to be other-than-temporary is recorded as an impairment charge as a component of earnings in the period in which that determination is made.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of its cash and cash equivalents, equity method investment, and operating revenues. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at several financial institutions. Deposits with financial institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 per depositor. Bank deposits at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a partnership under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, taxes are paid at the member level, not at the Company level. Accordingly, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments represents estimates of fair values at a specific point in time determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment in the interpretation of current market data. Therefore, the fair values presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize or settle currently.
The level in the fair value hierarchy within which fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets of liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize their fair value.
Use of Estimates
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 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On September 1, 2021, HG Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Title Agency Ventures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TAV”), and Fidelis US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”). On such date, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and in an immediate sign-and-close transaction, the Company purchased 50% of the membership interests of TAV from Seller (the “Second Acquisition”) for $2.2 million (the “Purchase Price”).
The Acquisition, combined with the previously-announced acquisition (the “First Acquisition”, and collectively with the Second Acquisitions, the “Acquisition”) by the Company in July 2021 of a 100% membership interest in National Consumer Title Group LLC, a Florida limited liability company, which owns a 50% membership interest in TAV, the Company now is the sole owner of TAV, and by virtue thereof, owns all of the membership interests in Omega National Title Agency (“Omega”), a Florida based title agency. Omega operates 10 title agency locations in Florida providing title agency services for residential and commercial real estate transactions. As previously disclosed, in the First Acquisition, the Company also effectively purchased 100% of the stock of National Consumer Title Insurance Company (“NCTIC”), NCTIC provides title insurance, closing and/or escrow services and similar or related services in the state of Florida in connection with residential real estate transactions. The Company has previously provided certain pro forma financial statements of NCTIC in its amendment No. 1 of its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 5, 2021 (“October 2021 Form 8-K/A”) and the pro forma financial statements provided herein include NCTIC’s pro forma financial statements as set forth below.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Please refer to the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements in Exhibit 99.3 of the October 5, 2021 Form 8-K/A for more information regarding the NCTIC pro forma information.
1. Description of the Acquisition
On September 1, 2021, HG Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Title Agency Ventures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TAV”), and Fidelis US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”). On such date, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and in an immediate sign-and-close transaction, the Company purchased 50% of the membership interests of TAV from Seller (the “Acquisition”) for $2.2 million (the “Purchase Price”).
The Acquisition, combined with the previously-announced acquisition by the Company in July 2021 of a 100% membership interest in National Consumer Title Group LLC, a Florida limited liability company, which owns a 50% membership interest in TAV, the Company now is the sole owner of TAV, and by virtue thereof, owns all of the membership interests in Omega National Title Agency (“Omega”), a Florida based title agency. Omega operates 10 title agency locations in Florida providing title agency services for residential and commercial real estate transactions.
2. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet presents the Company’s historical financial position combined with NCTIC, NCTG and TAV as if the Acquisition had occurred on June 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 present the combined results of the Company as if the Acquisition with NCTIC, NCTG and TAV had occurred on January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 present the combined results of the Company as if the Acquisition with NCTIC, NCTG and TAV had occurred on January 1, 2021. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements include management’s assumptions and certain adjustments as described in greater detail herein.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet information is based on the following:
|
● |
With respect to the Company, the unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 2021; and |
|
● |
With respect to NCTIC, NCTG and TAV, the unaudited combined balance sheets as of June 30, 2021. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 is based on the following:
|
● |
With respect to the Company, the unaudited statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021; and |
|
● |
With respect to NCTIC, NCTG and TAV, the unaudited combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 is based on the following:
|
● |
With respect to the Company, the audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020; and |
|
● |
With respect to NCTIC and NCTG, the audited combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and with respect to TAV, the unaudited combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. |
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”) and are based on the audited annual and unaudited interim historical financial statements of the Company and NCTIC and NCTG. The unaudited pro forma financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only. The historical financial statements have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma financial statements to give effect to the pro forma events that are (a) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results.
As the acquirer for accounting purposes, the Company has estimated the fair value of the NCTIC, NCTG and TAV assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and conformed the accounting policies of NCTG to its own accounting policies. The acquisition method of accounting uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). Fair value is defined in ASC 820 as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Fair value measurements can be highly subjective, and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could result in different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary, pending the finalization of various estimates and analyses as outlined in the Purchase Agreement. Since these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared based on preliminary estimates of fair values attributable to the Acquisition, the actual amounts eventually recorded for the Acquisition, may differ materially from the pro forma information presented.
The unaudited forma condensed combined financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Acquisition occurred on the dates indicated. They may also not be useful in predicting the future financial condition or results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies that could result from the Acquisition, or additional expenses which could also result from the Acquisition. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect additional revenue opportunities following the Acquisition.
3. Accounting Policies and Reclassifications
As a result of the continuing review of NCTG and TAV’s accounting policies, the Company may identify differences between the accounting policies of the businesses that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not assume any differences in accounting policies other than the assumptions regarding useful lives for certain elements of property and equipment impacting depreciation expense.
4. Preliminary Purchase Price and Allocation
The following tables set forth the purchase considerations paid for the equity of NCTG as of July 20, 2021 and the remaining 50% equity interest in TAV as of September 1, 2021, the respective dates of each acquisition. The preliminary purchase price allocation set forth below assumes the acquisition had closed on June 30, 2021 (in thousands):

Bargain purchase gain |
$ | (17 | ) | $ | - | |||
A bargain purchase gain is recognized in current earnings when the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The bargain purchase gain was primarily driven by differences in NCTIC’s statutory surplus and GAAP surplus at the date of acquisition. The Company believes that the Sellers wanted to exit the business relatively quickly and there were a limited number of potential buyers due to factors inherent to the property and casualty market, which resulted in a bargain purchase gain.
On September 1, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 50% membership interests of TAV for $2.2 million. This acquisition, combined with the July 2021 Acquisition of a 100% membership interest in NCTG, which owns a 50% membership interest in TAV, the Company now is the sole owner of TAV.
The final purchase price allocation for TAV at fair value is as follows (in thousands):
|
Cash paid for remaining 50% of TAV |

For the purposes of this pro forma analysis, the purchase price has been preliminarily allocated based on an estimate of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition date. The determination of estimated fair value requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is expected to be completed as soon as possible but no later than one year from the Acquisition date. The Company will adjust its estimates as needed upon the final valuation.
