TABLE OF CONTENTS
PART I J.W. Mays, Inc. (the “Company” or “Registrant”) with executive offices at 9 Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York 11201, operates a number of commercial real estate properties, which are described in Item 2 “Properties”. The Company’s business was founded in 1924 and incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on July
6, 1927. The Company discontinued its department store business which operated under the name of “MAYS”, in the year ended July 31, 1989, and has continued the leasing of real estate. The Company has no foreign operations. The Company employs 30 employees and has a contract, expiring November 30, 2013, with a union covering rates of pay, hours of employment and other conditions of employment for approximately 23% of its employees. The Company considers that its labor relations with its employees and union are good. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This Annual Report on Form 10-K may contain forward-looking statements which include assumptions about future market conditions, operations and financial results. These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties. They are made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements in the future could differ significantly from the results, performance or achievements discussed or implied in such forward-looking statements herein and in prior Securities and Exchange Commission filings by the Company. The
Company assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements or to advise of changes in the assumptions on which they were based. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, changes in the competitive environment of the Company, general economic and business conditions, industry trends, changes in government rules and regulations and environmental rules and regulations. Statements concerning interest rates and
other financial instrument fair values and their estimated contribution to the Company’s future results of operations are based upon market information as of a specific date. This market information is often a function of significant judgment and estimation. Further, market interest rates are subject to significant volatility. Risks Relating to Ownership Structure The controlling shareholder group may be able to vote its shares in favor of its interests that may not always coincide with the interests of shareholders not part of such group. This risk may be counter-balanced to a degree by the actions of the Board of Directors whose composition is made up of a majority of independent directors. The controlling shareholder group includes a corporation that owns a significant percentage of the Company’s common stock and which does business with the Company, as further described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In theory, this could result in a conflict of interest; nevertheless, the Company and its
largest shareholder have put in place some controls to reduce the effects of any perceived conflict of interest. Certain conflicts of interest may be perceived by the relationship between the Company and its largest shareholder. Both entities have the same Chief Executive Officer, and certain management personnel work for both entities. Nevertheless, the Company’s Board of Directors is composed of a majority of independent directors. As
recently as 2005, in a case involving both entities, the Delaware Supreme Court in connection with an attempt to obtain books and records of the Company through a proceeding against the Company’s significant shareholder, held that the actions of the Company’s Board were proper. 1
Risks Related to Our Business We are a part of the communities in which we do business. Accordingly, like other businesses in our communities, we are subject to the following risks:
•
the continued threat of terrorism; • economic downturns, both on a national and on local scales; • loss of key personnel; • the availability, if needed, of additional financing; • the continued availability of insurance (in different types of policies) at reasonably acceptable rates; and • the general burdens of governmental regulation, at the Local, State and Federal levels. Risks Related to Real Estate Operations Our investment in property development may be limited by increasing costs required to “fit up” property to be leased to tenants. Also, as the cost of fitting up properties increases, we may be required to wait and forsake opportunities that would be revenue producing until such time that we obtain the necessary financing of such
ventures. This risk may be mitigated by our obtaining of lines of credit and other financing vehicles, although such have significant limitations on the amounts that may be borrowed at any point in time. We also may be subject to environmental liability as an owner or operator of properties. Many of our properties are old and when we need to fit up a property for a new tenant, we may find materials and the like that could be deemed to contain hazardous elements requiring remediation or encapsulation. We try to lease our properties to tenants with adequate finances, but as a result of the recent economic downturn, even formerly financially strong tenants may be at risk. The Company is trying to mitigate the latter by leasing our properties to multiple tenants where applicable in order to diversify the tenant base. Risks Related to our Investments Excess cash and cash equivalents may be invested from time to time. We seek to earn rates of return that will help us finance our business operations. These investments may be subject to significant uncertainties and may not be successful for many reasons, including, but not limited to the following:
•
fluctuations in interest rates; • worsening of general economic and market conditions; and • adverse legal, financial and regulatory developments that may affect a particular business. Risk Factors Summary These are some of the “Risk Factors” that could affect the Company’s business. The Company endeavors to take actions and do business in a way that reduces these “Risk Factors” or, at least, takes them into account when conducting its business. Nevertheless, some of these “Risk Factors” cannot be avoided so that the Company
must also take actions and do business that negates the adverse effects that these may have on the ongoing business of the Company. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. There are no unresolved comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 2

bays, passage facilities and tunnel, totaling approximately 17,000 square feet, are included in the lease from the City of New York and another landlord referred to in the preceding paragraph. (2) The Company constructed a building of six stories and basement on a 20 x 75-foot plot (acquired and made available by the City of New York and leased to the Company for a term expiring in 2013 with renewal options, the last of which expires in 2073). The plot is adjacent to and connected with the Company’s
Brooklyn properties. In the opinion of management, all of the Company’s properties are adequately covered by insurance. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders, which information is incorporated herein by reference, for information concerning the tenants, the rental income from which equals 10% or more of the Company’s rental income. There are various lawsuits and claims pending against the Company. It is the opinion of management that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company is required to remove the foot bridge over Bond Street in Brooklyn, New York by June 2012. The removal of the foot bridge is anticipated to be completed in October 2011 at a cost of $309,423. If the Company sells, transfers, disposes of or demolishes 25 Elm Place, Brooklyn, New York, then the Company may be liable to create a condominium unit for the loading dock. The necessity of creating the condominium unit and the cost of such condominium unit cannot be determined at this time.

The Registrant’s Consolidated Financial Statements, together with the report of D’Arcangelo & Co., LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, dated October 6, 2011, appearing on pages 4 through 19 of the Registrant’s 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders is incorporated herein by reference. With the exception of the
aforementioned information and the information incorporated by reference in Items 2, 5, 6, and 7 hereof, the 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders is not to be deemed filed as part of this Form 10-K Annual Report. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure. There are no disagreements between the Company and its accountants relating to accounting or financial disclosures. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s management reviewed the Company’s internal controls and procedures and the effectiveness of these controls. As of July 31, 2011, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in its periodic SEC filings. (b) Change to internal controls over financial reporting. There was no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and
therefore there were no corrective actions taken. (c) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f). Our internal control system has been designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and its Board of Directors regarding the preparation
and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Even those systems that have been determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. The Company’s management
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2011. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework Guidance for Small Public Companies. Based
on the Company’s assessments, we believe that, as of July 31, 2011, its internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria. 10
This Form 10-K Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the permanent exemption for small reporting
