NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information as to the three months ended March 31, 2021 is unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
UC Asset, LP (the “Partnership”) is a Delaware Limited Partnership formed for the purpose of making capital investments with a focus on growth-equity investments and real estate. The Partnership was formed on February 1, 2016.
The Partnership is managed by its General Partner, UCF Asset LLC.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of accounting The Partnership prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded upon the closing of the transaction. Investments are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reflected in the statement of changes in net assets.
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”) as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.
(b) Principles of Consolidation The Partnership’s consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of UC Asset, LP and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Atlanta Landsight, LLC, SHOC Holdings LLC and Hotal Service LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
(c) 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, disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and report amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(d) Fair value measurements The Partnership records and carries its investments at fair value, defined as the price the Partnership would receive to sell the asset in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the balance sheet date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets, such measurements involve the development of assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the balance sheet date.

UC ASSET, LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
(d) Fair value measurements, continued
Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable
Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable
The General Partner maintains policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. In addition, The General partner reviews valuations, including independent price validation for certain instruments. Further, in other instances, independent pricing vendors are obtained to assist in valuing certain instruments.
(e) Cash and equivalents The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three (3) months or less to be cash equivalents.
(f) Investments The Partnership’s core activity is to make investments in real estate properties. Excess funds are held in financial institutions.
Investments in short term loans are recorded at fair value, which are their stated amount due to their short-term maturity and modest interest rates. Portfolio investments are recorded at their estimated fair value, as determined in good faith by the General Partner of the Partnership. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in earnings.
The estimated fair value of investments as determined
by the General Partner was $
(g) Federal Income taxes As a limited partnership, the Partnership is not a taxpaying entity for federal or state income tax purposes; accordingly, a provision for income taxes has not been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Partnership income or losses are reflected in the partners’ individual or corporate tax returns in accordance with their ownership percentages.
As defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 740, Income Taxes, no provision or liability for materially uncertain tax positions was deemed necessary by management. Therefore, no provision or liability for uncertain tax positions has been included in these financial statements. Generally, the Partnerships tax returns remain open for three years for federal income tax examination.
(h) Income Interest income from portfolio investments is recorded as accrued.
(i) Recent Accounting Pronouncements Partnership management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 3 - LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
The Partnership’s consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities
and commitments in the normal course of business. The Partnership sustained a net operating loss of approximately $
NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents The fair value of financial instruments that are short-term and that have little or no risk are considered to have a fair value equal to book value.
(b) Unsecured Loan Investments The fair
value of short-term unsecured loans are considered to have a fair value equal to book value due to the short-term nature and market rate
of interest commensurate with the level of credit risk. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were $
(c) Portfolio Investments The portfolio investments consist of member equity interests which are not publicly traded. The General Partner (“GP”) uses the investee entity’s real estate valuation reports as a basis for valuation when there is limited, or no, relevant market activity for a specific instrument or for other instruments that share similar characteristics. Portfolio investments priced by reference to valuation reports are included in Level 3. The GP conducts internal reviews of pricing to ensure reasonableness of valuations used. Based on the information available, management believes that the fair values provided are representative of prices that would be received to sell the individual assets at the measurement date (exit prices).
The fair values of the investee entity’s assets are determined in part by placing reliance on third-party valuations of the properties and/or third party approved internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The third-party valuations and internally developed analyses are significantly impacted by the local market economy, market supply and demand, competitive conditions and prices on comparable properties, adjusted for anticipated date of sale, location, property size, and other factors. Each property is unique and is analyzed in the context of the particular market where the property is located. In order to establish the significant assumptions for a particular property, the GP analyzes historical trends, including trends achieved by the GP’s operations, if applicable, and current trends in the market and economy impacting the property. These methods use unobservable inputs to develop fair value for the GP’s properties. Due to the volume and variance of unobservable inputs, resulting from the uniqueness of each of the GP’s properties, the GP does not use a standard range of unobservable inputs with respect to its evaluation of properties.
Changes in economic factors, consumer demand and market conditions, among other things, could materially impact estimates used in the third-party valuations and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties. Thus, estimates can differ significantly from the amounts ultimately realized by the investee segment from disposition of these assets.

The fair value measurements are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments.

There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Partnership.
Generally, the fair value of the Atlanta investee’s
properties is not sensitive to changes in unobservable inputs since generally the properties are held for less than six months.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Annual Report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Management is currently unaware of any trends or conditions other than those mentioned in this management’s discussion and analysis that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s current financial position, future results of operations, or liquidity. However, investors should also be aware of factors that could have a negative impact on the Company’s prospects and the consistency of progress in the areas of revenue generation, liquidity, and generation of capital resources. These may include: (i) variations in revenue, (ii) possible inability to attract investors for its equity securities or otherwise raise adequate funds from any source should the Company seek to do so, (iii) increased governmental regulation or significant changes in such regulations, (iv) increased competition, (v) unfavorable outcomes to litigation to which the Company may become a party in the future, and (vi) a very competitive and rapidly changing real estate environment.
The risks identified here are not all inclusive. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results.
Overview
UC Asset LP partnership (“UC Asset,” the “Company,” the “Partnership”, “we,” or “us”) is a limited partnership formed on February 01, 2016 under the laws of the State of Delaware. We invest in our portfolio investments for the purpose of capital appreciation. According to our bylaws, a majority of our portfolio investments must be allocated to real estate in metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, GA and Greensboro, NC. Our principal office address is 2299 Perimeter Park Drive, Suite 120, Atlanta, GA 30341. On January 02, 2020, our units began to be quoted on the OTCQX, the Best Market of OTC markets.
Our partnership is managed by our general partner, UCF Asset LLC under the terms of our partnership’s Limited Partnership Agreement. Except for limited conditions defined in our limited partnership agreement, UCF Asset LLC acting as general partner has authority to exercise full management of our partnership. Limited partners are passive investors and have limited power over our partnership and our general partner.
Legal Structure of our Company
The business is structured as a publicly traded limited partnership (Master Limited Partnership or MLP) rather than a real estate investment trust (REIT) in order to appeal to investors looking for long-term growth. The majority of MLPs are organized in natural resources sectors of the economy, and only a very limited number invest in real estate. As a matter of fact, we are the only real estate MLP quoted on OTCQX.
Business Operations
UC Asset was formed to carry on innovative, or otherwise active, real estate investment strategies in order to maximize the Company’s returns. We intend to form separate subsidiaries, each of which will focus on a specialized investment strategy.
By and as of June 30, 2021, our business operations are being performed primarily through our subsidiaries Atlanta Landsight LLC, SHOC Holdings LLC, and Hotal LLC, all of which are our wholly owned Georgia limited liability companies.
Atlanta Landsight LLC, (“ALS”), invests in residential and commercial properties in the Atlanta metropolitan area. It was initially created to focus on residential redevelopment (“house flip”) market in metropolitan Atlanta, where Money Magazine in May 2017 reported that the average return on investment (“ROI”) on house flip is approximately 50%.
1
Over time, ALS’ strategy has shifted to innovative investment in non-residential properties in metro Atlanta. In the second quarter of 2021, ALS acquired historical Rufus Rose House in downtown Atlanta. The Company will partner with block-chain technology companies to issue Non-fungible Tokens (“NFT”) based on certain derivative property rights (For example, the right to use the image of the property for business purpose).
If this business strategy proves to be a success, ALS may acquire more historical buildings to form similar business partnerships. All work in the development and sale of NFTs will be performed by ALS’s technology partners and ALS will focus on acquiring and managing its portfolio of historical buildings.
SHOC Holdings LLC (“SHOC LLC”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and it is start-up with an innovative business model to invest in SHOC properties. SHOC, is an acronym that means Shared Home-Office Cluster/Community. This is a new concept of properties similar to “home rentals” developed and operated by companies such as Airbnb (NASDAQ: ABNB) and Vrbo. The difference of SHOC from “home rentals” is that SHOC properties are defined as home-offices for rent, targeting business travelers.
Home rentals have become trendy and are perceived as alternatives to conventional hotels. However, according to our market research, home rentals are not appealing to certain business travelers, who demand business facilities such as conference rooms, and who prefer to lodge adjacent to major airports, or business centers. As an innovative concept, SHOC will locate nearby major airports or business center districts. These units will be equipped with home-office facilities such as hi-speed internet, video conferencing, office accessories and other tools to empower today’s business travelers. But it also presents the personalized charm, including home-style full-equipped kitchen, to serve travelers with a home office away from home.
In April 2021, SHOC LLC made its first investment by acquiring a 10-unit apartment building in downtown Atlanta in April 2021, for a consideration of approximately $750,000. It plans to convert this building into a SHOC property of 7-8 units, including two executive suites.
Hotal Services LLC (“HOTAL”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and it is a start-up whose business strategy is to invest in hospitality properties. It currently has made no investments and carries zero book value.
UC Asset LP also invests in private debts and other non-real estate opportunities, to the extent that the revenue generated from those opportunities will not exceed ten percent (10%) of total revenue of the Company. From inception through June 30, 2021, UC Asset LP held debt investments of approximately $739,000 in total. $700,000 of those debts were assigned to SHOC LLC as a capital contribution in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Results of Operations
Net equity per common unit has grown from $1.156/per unit as of March 01, 2016, to $1.493/per unit (fully diluted) as of June 30, 2021, after a $0.050 distribution in 2018. The following table shows the change of net equity per share during this period:

Three months Ended June 30, 2020

Trend information
The following discussion covers some significant trends affecting our business during fiscal 2020, in our industry, or to the macro economy, since the last fiscal year, which had impacts on our operations. It also covers known trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our operation for the current fiscal year of 2021.
Public trading of our common units and filing of Form 10-12G
On January 02, 2020, our common units began being quoted on the OTCQX, the Best Market of OTC Markets.
On September 18, 2020, we filed Form 10-12G to convert our Partnership into a fully-reporting public company. This is a step to lay foundations for possible secondary public offering and/or upgrading to national exchanges such as NASDAQ or NYSE, however, there is no assurance that there events will ultimately occur. Since then, we have filed four amendments to Form 10-12G in response to SEC comments.
Impact of COVID-19 on national and local real estate markets
COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on real estate markets. We have closely followed its impacts. We published a “White Paper” on February 23, 2021 to outline our major observations, analyses, and conclusions. In the White Paper the management concluded that the unusual price hike of residential property in 2020 and 2021 was an unexpected consequence of the pandemic, and therefore not sustainable, and probably will peak in the second half of 2021. The White Paper also concluded that fast rising construction costs, which is also a consequence of COVID-19 pandemic, made it undesirable to invest into residential homes that need redevelopments.
For a detailed discussion on the impact of COVID pandemic on real estate market, please refer to a whitepaper published by us: https://www.ucasset.com/WhitePapers/2021%20Management%20White%20Paper.pdf
Application of blockchain technology (NFT) in real estate industry
In the beginning of the third quarter of 2021, ALS acquired historical Rufus Rose House in downtown Atlanta. It will partner with block-chain technology companies to issue Non-fungible Tokens (“NFT”) based on certain derivative property rights (For example, the right to use the image of the property for business purpose). ALS expects to collect $1 million to $5 million from sales of those NFTs.
If this strategy is successful, ALS may acquire more historical buildings to form similar business partnerships. All work in the development and sale of NFTs will be performed by ALS’ technology partners, while ALS will acquire and manage its investment portfolio of historical landmark properties.

Off Balance-sheet Arrangements
The Company doesn’t have any off balance-sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021.
Our management, with the participation of our (principal executive officer, and our principal accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer, our principal accounting officer and our principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The reason or these deficiencies are as follows:
| 1) | We have an inadequate number of personnel. | |
| 2) | We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within our accounting functions. | |
| 3) | We have insufficient written policies and procedure over our disclosures. |

Evaluation of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer and principal financial officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of our company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of our Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
Further, the evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting was made as of a specific date, and continued effectiveness in future periods is subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate, because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management has conducted, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021 in accordance with the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that as of June 30, 2021, our Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on present Company activity. Our Company is in the process of adopting specific internal control mechanisms. Future controls, among other things, will include more checks and balances and communication strategies between the management and the board to ensure efficient and effective oversight over Company activities as well as more stringent accounting policies to track and update our financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
As of the end of the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting subsequent to the date of management’s last evaluation.
Coronavirus Impact (COVID-19)
Due to the recent outbreak of the coronavirus reported in many countries worldwide, local and federal governments have issued travel advisories, canceled large scale public events and closed schools. In addition, some companies have canceled conferences and travel plans and are requiring employees to work from home. Global financial markets have also experienced extreme volatility and disruptions to capital and credit markets.
We are unable to predict the impact of the coronavirus on our operations at this time. Adverse events such as health-related concerns about working in our offices, the inability to travel, potential impact on our business partners and customers, and other matters affecting the general work and business environment could harm our business and interfere with the pursuit of our business plan. The adverse events may also adversely impact our ability to raise capital or to continue as a going concern. We continue to monitor the outbreak of the coronavirus on our operations. The global economic slowdown and the other risks and uncertainties associated with the pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. In addition, to the extent the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s business and results of operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks and uncertainties which the Company faces.
