MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto contained in this report. In this discussion, the words “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us” refer to J.W. Mays, Inc. and subsidiaries.

Forward Looking Statements:

The following can be interpreted as including forward looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “outlook”, “intend”, “plans”, “efforts”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects” or words of similar import typically identify such statements. Various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are identified under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below. Our actual results may vary significantly from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, availability of labor, marketing success, competitive conditions and the change in economic conditions of the various markets we serve.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe the critical accounting policies in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. (See Note 1 on page 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein and Note 1 on pages 9 through 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013).

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended April 30, 2014 Compared to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2013:

In the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company reported net income of $218,315, or $.11 per share. In the comparable three months ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $73,037, or $.04 per share.

Revenues in the current three months increased to $4,268,129 from $3,704,426 in the comparable 2013 three months primarily due to increased rents from two office tenants who replaced previous office tenants at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

Real estate operating expenses in the current three months increased to $2,435,241 from $2,154,463 in the comparable 2013 three months primarily due to increases in real estate taxes and maintenance costs, partially offset by a bad debt expense in the amount of $240,258 in the comparable 2013 three months.

Administrative and general expenses in the current three months increased to $1,013,284 from $876,370 in the comparable 2013 three months primarily due to increases in payroll costs, legal and professional costs and pension costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense in the current three months increased to $427,921 from $404,479 in the comparable 2013 three months primarily due to improvements to the Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and the Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

-15-

Interest expense in the current three months exceeded investment income by $100,368 and by $87,077 in the comparable 2013 three months. The increase was due to decreased investment income and a decrease in capitalized interest expense.

Nine Months Ended April 30, 2014 Compared to the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2013:

In the nine months ended April 30, 2014, the Company reported net income of $597,289, or $.30 per share. In the comparable nine months ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $562,843, or $.28 per share.

Revenues in the current nine months increased to $12,626,482 from $12,004,447 in the comparable 2013 nine months primarily due to the settlement of litigation with a retail tenant in the amount of $181,257 at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and increased rents from the office tenants who replaced previous office tenants at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

Real estate operating expenses in the current nine months increased to $7,088,526 from $6,607,728 in the comparable 2013 nine months primarily due to increases in real estate taxes, payroll costs and maintenance costs, partially offset by a decrease in leasing commission expense and a bad debt expense in the amount of $240,258 in the comparable 2013 nine months.

Administrative and general expenses in the current nine months increased to $3,119,880 from $2,673,644 in the comparable 2013 nine months primarily due to increases in legal and professional costs and pension costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense in the current nine months increased to $1,270,828 from $1,208,221 in the comparable 2013 nine months primarily due to improvements to the Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York building and the Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.

The current nine months had a loss on disposition of property and equipment in the amount of $4,291. The 2013 nine month period had a loss on disposition of property and equipment in the amount of $316,021.

Investment expense in the current nine months exceeded investment income by $91,668 and by $253,990 in the comparable 2013 nine months. The decrease in interest expense over investment income was primarily due to the gain on sale of marketable securities and interest expense reductions effected by scheduled repayments of debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Management considers current working capital and borrowing capabilities adequate to cover the Company’s planned operating and capital requirements. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $1,420,298 at April 30, 2014.

In February 2013, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a tenant for 10,000 square feet for office space at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York property. The cost of construction was $1,283,188 and brokerage commissions were $247,830. Occupancy commenced in December 2013 and rent commenced in March 2014. The Company had to relocate part of its general offices to accommodate the tenant at a cost of $556,868. Both of these projects were financed through operating funds.

In October 2013, the Company leased 99,992 square feet to a retail tenant at the Company's Fishkill property. Occupancy commenced in November 2013 and rent commenced in March 2014. The Company expects to incur total construction costs of approximately $1,700,000, including a new roof and repavement of the parking lot.

The Company also renewed leases with two office tenants at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York who occupy 8,000 and 8,300 square feet, respectively. The existing lease renewal periods were extended to June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2018, respectively. The Company also renewed a lease with an office tenant at the Company's Jamaica, New York building, who occupies 38,109 square feet for an additional five year period expiring on November 30, 2018.

Two of the Company's retail tenants at its Jamaica, New York building who occupy 28,335 square feet and 25,954 square feet and whose leases expired in August 2013 and September 2013, respectively, did not renew their leases. The loss in annual rental income will be $240,000 and $300,000, respectively. The tenant who occupied 28,335 square feet stayed as a tenant on a month to month rental until February 2014 and the tenant who occupied 25,954 square feet vacated the premises in October 2013. The Company in November 2013 leased the 25,954 square feet to a retail furniture store for a ten year period and leased with an existing retail tenant the 28,335 square feet for a fifteen year period. The rental income received from these tenants will be greater than the rental income from the previous tenants. Rent commenced in May 2014 for the retail furniture store and will commence August 2014 with the existing retail tenant.

In January 2013, a tenant who occupies 7,401 square feet of retail space at the Company's Nine Bond Street, Brooklyn, New York property informed the Company that it will vacate the premises. The Company was in litigation to evict the tenant from the premises. In October 2013, the Company settled the litigation with this tenant. Under the terms of the settlement the tenant will pay all the rent due the Company and in turn the tenant will continue its occupancy under the terms of the lease agreement.

In October 2013, a tenant at the Company's Circleville, Ohio property extended its lease for a period of five years expiring on October 31, 2018. This tenant also increased the amount of square footage occupied from 30,000 square feet to 48,000 square feet.

The Company has commitments with contractors to replace the roof on its Fishkill, New York building and the repavement of the parking lot. The cost of the projects will be $1,362,000 and work began in April 2014.

These include statements regarding our expectations about revenues, our liquidity, our expenses and our continued growth, among others. Such forward-looking statements by their nature involve a degree of risk and uncertainty.

Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the formation of these forward-looking statements and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized, as well as other factors, may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
