CANAL CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2010

1.             DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Canal Capital Corporation ("Canal"), incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1964, commenced business operations through a predecessor in 1936.

As a Stockholder of Canal Capital Corporation you should be aware that due to financial constraints Canal’s fiscal 2010 Financial Statements are being presented in this Form 10-Q without benefit of independent review.

General - While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Canal continues to closely monitor and reduce where possible its operating expenses and plans to continue its program to develop or sell the property it holds for development or resale as well as to reduce the level of its art inventories to enhance current cash flows. Management believes that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program and planned reduction of its art inventory will enable it to finance its current business activities. There can, however, be no assurance that Canal will be able to effectuate its planned art inventory reductions or that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program in itself will be sufficient to fund operating cash requirements.

Canal is engaged in two distinct businesses - real estate and stockyard operations.

Real Estate Operations - Canal's real estate properties are located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri, Omaha, Nebraska and Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The properties consist, for the most part, of an Exchange Building (commercial office space), land and
structures leased to third parties (rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. Its principal real estate operating revenues are derived from lease income from land and structures leased to various commercial and retail enterprises, rental income from its Exchange Building, and proceeds from the sale of real estate properties. In addition to selling what was excess stockyard property, the company entertains any offers to purchase, develop and restructure real estate lots surrounding its existing operating lease properties, stockyard operating properties and properties held for development or resale in order to enhance the value of the existing properties and surrounding real estate.
 
 
13


Real estate operations resulted in operating income of $147,000 and $397,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There were no real estate sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2010. Included in the fiscal 2009 results is a $194,000 gain on the sale of approximately 16 acres of vacant land located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Additionally, real estate operations contributed $217,000 and $575,000 to Canal’s revenues for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As of July 31, 2010, there are approximately 37 acres of undeveloped land owned by Canal adjacent to its stockyard properties. In addition to selling what was excess stockyard property, the company entertains any offers to purchase, develop and restructure real estate lots surrounding its existing operating lease properties, stockyard operating properties and properties held for development or resale in order to enhance the value of the existing properties and surrounding real estate.

In May 2010 Canal entered into a contract to sell a 30 acre parcel of land (formerly used in stockyard operations) located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota to a local developer for $2,000,000. Canal anticipates closing this sale in its fourth fiscal quarter.

Stockyard Operations - Canal currently operates one central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal closed the stockyard it operated in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in December 2009(collectively the “Stockyards”).

Sioux Falls Stockyard Closure - In December 2009, after extensive efforts to reorganize and return this stockyard to profitability, Canal ceased all stockyard operations at its Sioux Falls, South Dakota location. Canal now leases a portion of this property (approximately 10 acres), on a month to month basis, to a group that formerly operated at the stockyards as independent commission firms. This group will only handle hogs and sheep on the leased property.

Public stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading, and price discovery. The livestock handled by the Company’s stockyards include cattle, hogs, and sheep. Cattle and hogs may come through the stockyard facilities at two different stages, either as feeder livestock or slaughter livestock. The Company’s stockyards provide all services and facilities required to operate an independent market for the sale of livestock, including veterinary services facilities, auction arenas, auctioneers, weigh masters and scales, feed and bedding, and security personnel. In addition, the stockyards provide other services including pure bred and other specialty sales for producer organizations. The Company promotes its stockyard business through public relations efforts, advertising, and personal solicitation of producers.

 
14


Actual marketing transactions at a stockyard are managed for livestock producers by market agencies and independent commission sales people to which the livestock are consigned for sale. These market agencies (some of which are owned and operated by the Company) and independent sales people receive commissions from the seller upon settlement of a transaction and the stockyard receives a yardage fee on all livestock using the facility which is paid within twenty-four hours of the sale. Yardage fees vary depending upon the type of animal, the extent of services provided by the stockyard, and local competition. Yardage revenues are not directly dependent upon market prices, but rather are a function of the volume of livestock handled. In general, stockyard livestock volume is dependent upon conditions affecting livestock production and upon the market agencies and independent commission sales people which operate at the stockyards. Stockyard operations are seasonal, with greater volume generally experienced during the first and fourth quarters of each fiscal year, during which periods livestock is generally brought to market.

In addition to market agencies and independent commission sales people the St. Joseph stockyards has solicitation operations of its own which account for approximately 50% of its livestock volume annually. Canal intends to continue its soliciting efforts at its St. Joseph stockyards in fiscal 2010. Further, Canal tries to balance its dependence on market agencies and independent commission sales people in various ways, including: developing solicitation operations of its own; direct public relations; advertising and personal solicitation of producers on behalf of the stockyards; providing additional services at the stockyards to attract sellers and buyers; and providing incentives to market agencies and independent commission sales people for increased business.

Stockyard operations resulted in operating income of $214,000 and operating income of $121,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, stockyard operations contributed $1,648,000 and $2,151,000 to Canal’s revenues for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Canal maintains an inventory of feed and bedding which is comprised primarily of hay, corn and straw. The value of this inventory was $5,000 and $17,000 at July 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively.

2.             SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
A)   Principles of Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Canal Capital Corporation ("Canal") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“the Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
B)   Properties and Related Depreciation -- Properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties. Such lives are estimated from 35 to 40 years for buildings and from 5 to 20 years for improvements and equipment.

Property held for Development or Resale -- Property held for development or resale consist of approximately 37 acres located in the Midwest of undeveloped land not currently utilized for corporate purposes nor included in any of the present operating leases. The Company constantly evaluates proposals received for the purchase, leasing or development of this asset. The land is valued at cost which does not exceed the net realizable value.

Long-Lived Assets – The Company reviews the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. The measurement of the loss, if any, will be calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

C)   Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. When properties are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in current income.

D)   Reclassification -- Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

E)   Art Inventory Held for Sale - Inventory of art is valued at the lower of cost, including direct acquisition and restoration expenses, or net realizable value on a specific identification basis. The nature of art makes it difficult to determine a replacement value. The most compelling evidence of a value in most cases is an independent appraisal. The net realizable value of Canals remaining art inventory has been estimated by management based in part on the Company’s history of art sales in the current and previous years and in part on the results of the independent appraisals done in previous years. However, because of the nature of art inventory, such determination is very subjective and, therefore, the estimated values could differ significantly from the amount ultimately realized.

 
16


F)   Income Taxes -- Canal and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.

G)   Stockyard Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

H)   Accounting Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

I)   Revenue Recognition –- Lease and rental revenues are recognized ratably over the period covered. All real estate leases are accounted for as operating leases. Revenues from the sale of real estate are recognized at the time the sale has been consummated on the full accrual method wherein the seller has transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership in a transaction that is in substance a sale and does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property; the seller’s receivable is not subject to future subordination and the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property. Revenues from stockyard operations which consist primarily of yardage fees (a standard per head charge for each animal sold through the stockyards) and sale of feed and bedding are recognized at the time the service is rendered or the feed and bedding are delivered.

Other Income (Expense) Items -- Art sales are recognized using the specific identification method, when the piece is shipped to the purchaser. Art owned by Canal which is on consignment, joint venture, or being examined in contemplation of sale is not removed from inventory and not recorded as a sale until notice of sale or acceptance has been received. The sale of investments available for sale, if any, are recognized on a specific identification method, on a trade date basis.

 
17


J)   Statements of Cash Flows -- The company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents primarily include bank, broker and time deposits with an original maturity of less than three months. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates market value. Canal made state income tax payments of $0, and $0, and interest payments of $88,000, and $95,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

K)   Comprehensive Income (Loss) -- The Company’s only adjustments for each classification of the comprehensive income was for minimum pension liability.

L)   Earnings (Loss) Per Share -- Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusts basic earnings (loss) per share for the effects of convertible securities, stock options and other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the period in which such effect is dilutive. There were no dilutive securities in any of the periods presented herein. The shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options are excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share as their effect would be antidilutive.

M)   Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements –- In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a frame work for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which is the Company’s 2009 fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB staff position No. 157-2, effective date of FASB statement No. 157 (FSP 157-2), which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company evaluated the impact of SFAS No. 157 and FSP 157-2 on its consolidated financial statements, and has determined the impact of adopting this standard does not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”). Under SFAS 168, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) will become the sole source of authoritative U.S. GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. SFAS 168 is effective for the financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption will have no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but will require that interim and annual filings include references to the Codification.

3.             INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a Stockholder of Canal Capital Corporation you should be aware that due to financial constraints Canal’s fiscal 2010 Financial Statements are being presented in this Form 10-Q without benefit of independent review.

General - While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Management, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and in the opinion of Management, contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position as of July 31, 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine month period ended July 31, 2010. All of the above referenced adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the three years ended October 31, 2009 and the notes thereto which are contained in Canal’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the period presented is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the remainder of fiscal 2010.


4.             STOCK OPTION PLAN

Under Canal's 1984 Employee and 1985 Directors Stock Option Plans, $550,000 and 264,000 shares, respectively, of Canal's common stock have been reserved for option grants. The purchase price of shares subject to each option granted, under the Employee and Directors Plans, will not be less than 85% and 100%, respectively, of their fair market value at the date of grant. Options granted under both plans are exercisable for 10 years from the date of grant, but no option will be exercisable earlier than one year from the date of grant. Under the Employee Plan, stock appreciation rights may be granted in connection with stock options, either at the time of grant of the options or at any time thereafter. No stock appreciation rights have been granted under this plan. There were no exercisable options outstanding under either of these plans at July 31, 2010 or 2009.

5.             BORROWINGS

The Company’s variable rate mortgage notes (originally issued in 1998) are due May 15, 2012 and are held entirely by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and members of his family. These notes carry interest at the rate of ten percent per annum. These notes, among other things, prohibit Canal from becoming an investment company as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940; require Canal to maintain minimum net worth; restricts Canal’s ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock and require principal prepayments to be made only out of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets. As of July 31, 2010, the balance due under these notes was 1,332,000, all of which is classified as long-term debt-related party. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of $88,000 and $95,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

At July 31, 2010, substantially all of Canal's real properties, the stock of certain subsidiaries, the investments and a substantial portion of its art inventories are pledged as collateral for the following obligations:

6.             RESTRICTED CASH

Letter of Credit - This is a $140,000 deposit with Chase Bank to secure a Letter of Credit issued by the bank to the Hartford Insurance Company for bonds issued in relation to the St. Joseph Stockyards clearing operation. This deposit is maintained in an interest bearing account.

Transit Insurance - Transit insurance covers livestock for the period that they are physically at the stockyards and under the care of stockyard personnel. This self insurance program is funded by a per head charge on all livestock received at the stockyard. The restricted cash - transit insurance balances of approximately $37,000 and $31,000 at July 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively, represents the excess of per head fees charged over actual payments made for livestock that was injured or died while at the stockyards.


7.             INCOME TAXES

At July 31, 2010, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10,200,000 that expire through 2029. For financial statement purposes, a valuation allowance has been provided to offset the net deferred tax assets due to the cumulative net operating losses incurred during recent years. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if, in the opinion of management, significant positive evidence exists which indicates that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize its deferred tax assets.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” FIN 48 prescribes detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The Company applied the provisions of this interpretation on November 1, 2007. The provisions of FIN 48 were applied to all existing uncertain income tax provisions on the effective date. Upon the implementation of FIN 48, any cumulative effect of this Interpretation would be required to be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The implementation of FIN 48 did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.


8.             IMPAIRMENT LOSS ON LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews the values of its long-lived assets annually. There was no impairment in the value of Canal’s long-lived assets to be recorded as of July 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009.

 
21


9.             ART INVENTORY HELD FOR SALE

Canal is in the process of selling, in an orderly manner, its remaining art inventory. This will be accomplished primarily through consignment arrangements with various independent art dealers and through sale at public art auctions. The Company's ability to dispose of its art inventory is dependent primarily on general economic conditions and the competitiveness of the art market itself. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Canal will be successful in selling its art inventory. Canal had no sales of art in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 or 2009. Canal's art operations have generated an operating losses of approximately $0 and $4,000 in the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Antiquities art valued at $100,000 represented 100% of total art inventory at both July 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009. The Company records a valuation allowance against the current portion of its inventory to reduce it to its estimated net realizable value based on the history of losses sustained on inventory items sold in the current and previous years. As of July 31, 2010 the valuation allowance is approximately $397,000.


10.           LEASE COMMITMENTS

In July 2009 Canal terminated its lease on approximately 1,000 square feet of office space in Hauppauge, New York at a monthly rental of approximately $1,900. Canal relocated its New York operations to approximately 300 square feet of rent free office space located in Port Jefferson Station, New York.

There are no operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancellable terms in excess of one year as of July 31, 2010. Accordingly, Canal has no future minimum payments due over the next five years.


11.           MINIMUM FUTURE RENTALS ON OPERATING LEASES

Minimum future rentals consist primarily of rental income from leased land and structures, Exchange Building rents (commercial office space) and other rental activities, all of which are accounted for as operating leases. The estimated minimum future rentals on operating leases are $325,000, $350,000, $375,000, $400,000 and $425,000 for fiscal years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively.

 
22


12.           PROPERTY ON OPERATING LEASES

Property on operating leases consist of approximately 16 acres of land located in Omaha, Nebraska; S. St. Paul, Minnesota; Sioux City, Iowa as well as furniture and equipment used in the Port Jefferson Station, New York office. Land and structures leased to third parties include vacant land, exchange buildings (commercial office space), meat packing facilities, railcar repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses.

15.           PENSION VALUATION RESERVE

The Pension Valuation Reserve represents the excess of additional minimum pension liability required under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 87 amended by SFAS 158 over the unrecognized prior service costs of former stockyard employees. Such excess arose due to the decline in the market value of pension assets available for pension benefits of former employees, which benefits were frozen at the time the stockyard operations were sold in 1989. The additional minimum pension liability will be expensed as actuarial computations of annual pension cost recognize the deficiency that exists.

The components of net periodic benefit cost are as follows:

   
Nine Months Ended

Recognized net actuarial loss
    90,000       90,000  
Net periodic benefit cost
    89,000       90,000  


For the nine months ended July 31, 2010 amounts have been estimated, actual amounts will be based on the discount rate and assets available at year end.

The Company’s required contribution to its pension plan for fiscal 2010 is approximately $22,000. A $14,000 contribution has been made to date and the Company expects to make the full required contribution before the end of the fiscal year.


16.           401(k) PLAN

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering substantially all of its full time stockyard employees. The plan provides for employee contributions and 401(k) matching contributions of up to 2 ½% of the employee’s annual salary by the Company. The Company made 401(k) matching contributions of approximately $9,000 and 13,000 for each of the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009.

17.           RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Interest Expense Related Party - At July 31, 2010, all of Canal’s Long-Term Debt is held by the company’s Chief Executive Officer and members of his family. These notes pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum and come due May 15, 2012. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of $88,000 and $95,000 and for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. At various times during fiscal 2010 and 2009 certain holders of these notes have agreed to defer interest payments due them to help Canal with its cash flow. All deferred interest liability for fiscal 2010 and 2009 plus accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum, will be repaid as funds become available. As of July 31, 2010, the balance due under these notes was $1,332,000 all of which is classified as long-term debt related party.


18.           LITIGATION

Canal and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in litigation incidental to their normal business activities, none of which, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Company. Canal was not a party to any ongoing litigation at July 31, 2010. The following situation did arise in fiscal 2005:

Environmental Protection Agency - Special Notice Letter for Investigation, Portland, Oregon Property

In 1989, the Company sold its 48 acre Portland, Oregon stockyard to Oregon Waste Systems, Inc. On September 29, 2003, the United States Environmental Agency (EPA) placed a 4.2 acre portion of that property on the National Priorities List pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as the Superfund Act. In a letter from the EPA dated June 27, 2005 the Company, along with approximately 13 other parties, including the current owner and operator of the site, was notified that it might be liable to perform or pay for the remediation of environmental contamination found on and around the site. Since the receipt of the letter, the Company has been in periodic communications with the other parties who received a similar letter with respect to what action, collectively or individually, should be taken in response to the EPA assertion of liability. The Company believes that the remediation of contamination of the site is properly the responsibility of other parties that have occupied and used it for waste recycling purposes since 1961, although under CERCLA the EPA is able to assert joint and several liability against all parties who ever owned or operated the site or generated or transported wastes to it. This investigation is in its preliminary stages and the Company intends to vigorously defend any liability for remediation. At July 31, 2010, the liability for remediation, if any, is not estimatable and therefore no accrual has been recorded in the financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2010


As a Stockholder of Canal Capital Corporation you should be aware that due to financial constraints Canal’s fiscal 2010 Financial Statements are being presented in this Form 10-Q without benefit of independent review.

You should read the following discussion together with the more detailed business information and consolidated financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this report and in the documents that we incorporate by reference into this report. This report may contain certain “forward-looking” information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Risk factors”.


Company Overview

The Registrant, Canal Capital Corporation ("Canal" or the "Company"), incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1964, commenced business operations through a predecessor in 1936.

Canal is engaged in two distinct businesses -- real estate and stockyard operations.

Real Estate Operations - Canal's real estate properties are located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri, Omaha, Nebraska and Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The properties consist, for the most part, of an Exchange Building (commercial office space), land and structures leased to third parties (meat packing facilities, rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. Its principal real estate operating revenues are derived from lease income from land and structures leased to various commercial and retail enterprises, rental income from its Exchange Building, and proceeds from the sale of real estate properties. In addition to selling what was excess stockyard property, the company entertains any offers to purchase, develop and restructure real estate lots surrounding its existing operating lease properties, stockyard operating properties and properties held for development or resale in order to enhance the value of the existing properties and surrounding real estate. See "Real Estate Operations".

 
28


Stockyard Operations - Canal currently operates one central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal closed the stockyard it operated in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in December 2009(collectively the “Stockyards”). Public stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading, and price discovery. The Company’s principal stockyard revenues are derived from a per head charge (“yardage charge”) imposed on all livestock consigned for sale at the stockyards and the sale of feed and bedding. See “Stockyard Operations”.

Real Estate Operations

Real estate operations resulted in operating income of $147,000 and 397,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There were no real estate sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2010. Included in the fiscal 2009 results is a $194,000 gain on the sale of approximately 16 acres of vacant land located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Additionally, real estate operations contributed $217,000 and $575,000 to Canal’s revenues for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As of July 31, 2010, there are approximately 37 acres of undeveloped land owned by Canal adjacent to its stockyard properties. In addition to selling what was excess stockyard property, the company entertains any offers to purchase, develop and restructure real estate lots surrounding its existing operating lease properties, stockyard operating properties and properties held for development or resale in order to enhance the value of the existing properties and surrounding real estate.

In May 2010 Canal entered into a contract to sell a 30 acre parcel of land (formerly used in stockyard operations) located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota to a local developer for $2,000,000. Canal anticipates closing this sale in its fourth fiscal quarter.

Risk - Real estate activities in general may involve various degrees of risk, such as the ability to collect receivables, competition for tenants, general market conditions and interest rates. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that Canal will be successful in the development, lease or sale of its real estate properties.

Competition - Canal competes in the area of real estate development with other regional developers, some of which are substantially larger and have significantly greater financial resources than Canal.

Stockyard Operations

Stockyard Operations - Canal currently operates one central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal closed the stockyard it operated in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in December 2009(collectively the “Stockyards”).

 
29


Sioux Falls Stockyard Closure - In December 2009, after extensive efforts to reorganize and return this stockyard to profitability, Canal ceased all stockyard operations at its Sioux Falls, South Dakota location. Canal now leases a portion of this property (approximately 10 acres), on a month to month basis, to a group that formerly operated at the stockyards as independent commission firms. This group will only handle hogs and sheep on the leased property.

Public stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading, and price discovery. The livestock handled by the Company’s stockyards include cattle, hogs, and sheep. Cattle and hogs may come through the stockyard facilities at two different stages, either as feeder livestock or slaughter livestock. The Company’s stockyards provide all services and facilities required to operate an independent market for the sale of livestock, including veterinary facilities, auction arenas, auctioneers, weigh masters and scales, feed and bedding, and security personnel. In addition, the stockyards provide other services including pure bred and other specialty sales for producer organizations. The Company promotes its stockyard business through public relations efforts, advertising, and personal solicitation of producers.

Actual marketing transactions at a stockyard are managed for livestock producers by market agencies and independent commission sales people to which the livestock are consigned for sale. These market agencies (some of which are owned and operated by the Company) and independent sales people receive commissions from the seller upon settlement of a transaction and the stockyard receives a yardage fee on all livestock using the facility which is paid within twenty-four hours of the sale. Yardage fees vary depending upon the type of animal, the extent of services provided by the stockyard, and local competition. Yardage revenues are not directly dependent upon market prices, but rather are a function of the volume of livestock handled. In general, stockyard livestock volume is dependent upon conditions affecting livestock production and upon the market agencies and independent commission sales people which operate at the stockyards. Stockyard operations are seasonal, with greater volume generally experienced during the first and fourth quarters of each fiscal year, during which periods livestock is generally brought to market.

In addition to market agencies and independent commission sales people the St. Joseph stockyards has solicitation operations of its own which account for approximately 50% of its livestock volume annually. Canal intends to continue its soliciting efforts at its St. Joseph stockyards in fiscal 2010. Further, Canal tries to balance its dependence on market agencies and independent commission sales people in various ways, including: developing solicitation operations of its own; direct public relations; advertising and personal solicitation of producers on behalf of the stockyards; providing additional services at the stockyards to attract sellers and buyers; and providing incentives to market agencies and independent commission sales people for increased business.

 
30


Stockyard operations resulted in operating income of $214,000 and $121,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, stockyard operations contributed $1,648,000 and $2,151,000 to Canal’s revenues for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Risk - Stockyard activities face a variety of risks and uncertainties related to the safeguarding of the national food supply which are beyond our control. Public confidence in the government’s efforts to safeguard the food supply is essential for the success of our stockyard operations. An outbreak of a disease such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) better known as Mad Cow Disease could have a devastating impact on stockyard operations. For the company’s part we strictly follow all USDA regulations to ensure to the extent we can the safety of the food supply. Furthermore, stockyard activities in general may involve various degrees of risk, such as competition from other regional stockyards and sale barns, general market conditions and to a lesser extent interest rates.

Competition - Canal competes in the area of public stockyards with other regional public stockyards and sale barns, some of which are substantially larger and have greater financial resources than Canal. To a certain extent, Canal’s stockyard revenues are dependent on the ability of the market agencies and independent commission sales people at each of Canal’s stockyard locations to compete within the region.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, income taxes, fixed assets, restructuring, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Management believes the following critical accounting policies impact our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a further discussion of these and other accounting policies, please see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

 
31


Revenue Recognition –- Lease and rental revenues are recognized ratably over the period covered. All real estate leases are accounted for as operating leases. Revenues from the sale of real estate are recognized at the time the sale has been consummated on the full accrual method wherein the seller has transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership in a transaction that is in substance a sale and does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property; the seller’s receivable is not subject to future subordination and the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property. Revenues from stockyard operations which consist primarily of yardage fees (a standard per head charge for each animal sold through the stockyards) and sale of feed and bedding are recognized at the time the service is rendered or the feed and bedding are delivered.

Art Inventory Held for Sale -- The nature of art makes it difficult to determine a replacement value. The most compelling evidence of a value in most cases is an independent appraisal. Canal has had varying percentages of its art inventory appraised by independent appraisers in previous years. For fiscal 2010 the net realizable value of Canals remaining art inventory has been estimated by management based in part on the Company’s history of art sales in the current and previous years and in part on the results of the independent appraisals done in previous years.

Properties and Related Depreciation -- Properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties. Such lives are estimated from 35 to 40 years for buildings and from 5 to 20 years for improvements and equipment.

Property held for Development or Resale -- Property held for development or resale consist of approximately 37 acres located in the Midwest of undeveloped land not currently utilized for corporate purposes nor included in any of the present operating leases. The Company constantly evaluates proposals received for the purchase, leasing or development of this asset. The land is valued at cost which does not exceed the net realizable value.

Long-Lived Assets -– The Company reviews the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. The measurement of the loss, if any, will be calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Canal recognized a net loss of approximately $354,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 as compared to a net loss of $253,000 for the same period in fiscal 2009. After recognition of accrued preferred stock dividends of $54,000 and $54,000 in 2010 and 2009, respectively, the results attributable to common stockholders were a net loss of 408,000 in 2010 and a net loss of 307,000 in 2009.

Canal's revenues from continuing operations consist of revenues from its real estate and stockyard operations. Revenues for the first six months of fiscal 2010 decreased by $570,000 to $1,462,000 as compared with 2009 revenues of $2,156,000. The fiscal 2010 decrease in revenues is due primarily to a $370,000 decrease in stockyard revenues as a result of the closing of the Sioux Falls Stockyards in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 combined with a $263,000 decrease in sale of real estate in the first six months of fiscal 2010.

COMPARISON OF FISCAL PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 2010 AND 2009

Real Estate Revenues

Real estate revenues for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 of $217,000 accounted for 11.6% of the fiscal 2010 revenues as compared to real estate revenues of $575,000 or 21.1% for the same period in fiscal 2009. Real estate revenues are comprised of sale of real estate (0.0% and 45.7%), rentals and other lease income from the rental of vacant land and certain structures (93.3% and 50.4%) and rental income from commercial office space in its Exchange Buildings (6.7% and 3.9%) for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the significant decrease in the sale of real estate during the first nine months of fiscal 2010.

Real estate revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2010 of $70,000 accounted for 17.3% of the fiscal 2010 revenues as compared to real estate revenues of $104,000 or 18.2% for the same period in fiscal 2009. Real estate revenues are comprised of sale of real estate (0.0% and 0.0%), rentals and other lease income from the rental of vacant land and certain structures (96.5% and 93.5%) and rental income from commercial office space in its Exchange Buildings (3.5% and 6.5%) for the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the significant decrease in the sale of real estate during the first nine months of fiscal 2010.

The decrease in real estate expenses is consistent with the 2010 decrease in real estate revenues. Real estate expenses are comprised of the cost of real estate sold (0.0% and 38.9%), labor, operating and maintenance (27.9% and 24.6%), depreciation and amortization (24.0% and 10.4%), taxes other than income taxes (23.8% and 9.4%) and general and administrative expenses (24.3% and 16.7%) for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are consistent with the decrease in real estate revenues discussed above.

 
34

The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are consistent with the decrease in real estate revenues discussed above.

Stockyard Revenues

Stockyard revenues for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 of $1,648,000 accounted for 88.4% of the fiscal 2010 revenues as compared to stockyard revenues of $2,151,000 or 78.9% for the same period in fiscal 2009. The 2010 decrease in stockyard revenues was due primarily to the closing of the Sioux Falls Stockyards in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Stockyard revenues are comprised of yard handling and auction (82.1% and 87.3%), feed and bedding income (4.8% and 7.0%) and rental and other income (13.1% and 5.7%) for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The 2010 percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the closing of the Sioux Falls Stockyards in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as discussed above.

Stockyard revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2010 of $333,000 accounted for 82.7% of the fiscal 2010 revenues as compared to stockyard revenues of $466,000 or 81.8% for the same period in fiscal 2009.

Stockyard expenses are comprised of labor and related costs (39.7% and 45.8%), other operating and maintenance (30.4% and 29.8%), feed and bedding expense (4.3% and 4.1%), depreciation and amortization (0.9% and 0.9%), taxes other than income taxes (9.8% and 7.0%) and general and administrative expense (14.9% and 12.4%) for the three month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There were no significant percentage variations in the year to year comparisons.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 of $628,000 decreased by $52,000 (7.7%) as compared to $680,000 for the same period in fiscal 2009. The major components of general and administrative expenses are officers salaries (56.6% and 51.4%), pension expense (12.9% and 13.2%), insurance expense (6.6% and 5.8%), office salaries (11.2% and 10.2%), travel expense (2.8% and 4.0%), rent (0.0% and 2.6%) and professional fees (2.9% and 3.2%) for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the sharp decreases in both pension and rent expenses in fiscal 2010.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2010 of $208,000 decreased by $23,000 (9.9%) as compared to $231,000 for the same period in fiscal 2009.

The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the sharp decreases in both pension and rent expenses in fiscal 2010.

Interest Expense
 
Interest expense for the nine months ended July 31, 2010 of $88,000 decreased by $7,000 (6.8%) from $95,000 for the same period in fiscal 2009. The 2010 decrease is due primarily to Canal’s $300,000 partial repayment of this debt in fiscal 2009. The principal balance outstanding at July 31, 2010 of $1,332,000 is classified as long-term debt-related party.

(Expense) Income from Art Sales & Operations

Other expense from art sales & operations of $0 and an operating loss of $4,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Canal had no art sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 or fiscal 2009. Art revenues, if any, are comprised of the proceeds from the sale of antiquities art. Art expenses are comprised of the cost of inventory sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. Canal incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of $0 and $4,000 for the nine month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. It is the Company’s policy to use the adjusted carrying value for sales, thereby reducing the valuation reserve proportionately as the inventory is sold.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a Stockholder of Canal Capital Corporation you should be aware that due to financial constraints Canal’s fiscal 2010 Financial Statements are being presented in this Form 10-Q without benefit of independent review.

While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from theresolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s variable rate mortgage notes (originally issued in 1998 and amended several times since then) are due May 15, 2012 and are held entirely by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and members of his family. These notes carry interest at the rate of ten percent per annum.

These notes, among other things, prohibit Canal from becoming an investment company as this is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940;restricts Canal’s ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock and require principal prepayments to be made only out of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets. Accordingly, as of July 31, 2010, the balance due under these notes was $1,332,000, all of which is classified as long-term debt-related party.

 
37


Cash and cash equivalents of $2,000 at July 31, 2010 decreased $153,000 from $155,000 at October 31, 2009. Net cash used in operating activities in fiscal 2010 was $117,000. Substantially all of the net proceeds from the sales of real estate or art, if any, will be used in operating activities or to reduce debt. During fiscal 2010 the balance of Canal’s liabilities increased by a total of $397,000.

At July 31, 2010 the Company’s current liabilities exceed current assets by approximately $0.5 million as compared to October 31, 2009 when the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets by $0.1 million. The only required principal repayments under Canal's debt agreements for fiscal 2010 will be from the proceeds (if any) of the sale of certain assets.

As discussed above, Canal’s cash flow position has been under significant strain for the past several years. Canal continues to closely monitor and reduce where possible its operating expenses and plans to continue its program to develop or sell the property it holds for development or resale as well as to reduce the level of its art inventories to enhance current cash flows. Management believes that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program and planned reduction of its art inventory will enable it to finance its current business activities. There can, however, be no assurance that Canal will be able to effectuate its planned art inventory reductions or that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program in itself will be sufficient to fund operating cash requirements.

ITEM III.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Securities and Exchange Commission’s rule related to market risk disclosure requires that we describe and quantify our potential losses from market risk sensitive instruments attributable to reasonably possible market changes. Market risk sensitive instruments include all financial or commodity instruments and other financial instruments (such as investments and debt) that are sensitive to future changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, commodity prices or other market factors. We are not exposed to market risks from changes in foreign currency, exchange rates or commodity prices. As of July 31, 2010, we do not hold derivative financial instruments nor do we hold securities for trading or speculative purposes. Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage our exposure to interest rate changes.

At July 31, 2010, the following long-term debt-related party financial instruments are sensitive to changes in interest rates by expected maturity dates:

Controls and Procedures

Our management, which includes our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a)-14(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of July 31, 2010 (“the Evaluation Date”) within 45 days prior to the filing date of this report. Based upon that evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective for timely gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. There have been no significant changes made in our internal controls or other factors that could significantly effect our internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date.

Item 1: Legal Proceedings:

Also see Item 3 of Canal’s October 31, 2009 Form 10-K.

Canal and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in litigation incidental to their normal business activities, none of which, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Company. Canal was not a party to any ongoing litigation at July 31, 2010.

The following situation did arise in fiscal 2005:

Environmental Protection Agency - Special Notice Letter for Investigation, Portland, Oregon Property

In 1989, the Company sold its 48 acre Portland, Oregon stockyard to Oregon Waste Systems, Inc. On September 29, 2003, the United States Environmental Agency (EPA) placed a 4.2 acre portion of that property on the National Priorities List pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as the Superfund Act. In a letter from the EPA dated June 27, 2005 the Company, along with approximately 13 other parties, including the current owner and operator of the site, was notified that it might be liable to perform or pay for the remediation of environmental contamination found on and around the site. Since the receipt of the letter, the Company has been in periodic communications with the other parties who received a similar letter with respect to what action, collectively or individually, should be taken in response to the EPA assertion of liability. The Company believes that the remediation of contamination of the site is properly the responsibility of other parties that have occupied and used it for waste recycling purposes since 1961, although under CERCLA the EPA is able to assert joint and several liability against all parties who ever owned or operated the site or generated or transported wastes to it. This investigation is in its preliminary stages and the Company intends to vigorously defend any liability for remediation. At July 31, 2010, the liability for remediation, if any, is not estimatable and therefore no accrual has been recorded in the financial statements.
