                               J. W. MAYS,  INC.
             NOTES TO  CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Accounting Records and Use of Estimates:

   The accounting records are maintained in accordance with accounting
   principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The
   preparation of the Company's financial statements in accordance with GAAP
   requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
   reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
   statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
   reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
   estimates that we make include allowance for doubtful accounts,
   depreciation and amortization, income tax assets and liabilities, fair
   value of marketable securities and revenue recognition. Estimates are based
   on historical experience where applicable or other assumptions that
   management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the
   inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may
   differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

   The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
   for reporting on Form 10-Q.  The July 31, 2010 balance sheet was derived
   from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures
   required by GAAP.  The interim financial statements and notes thereto
   should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
   included in the Company's latest Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal
   year ended July 31, 2010.  In the opinion of management, the interim
   financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature
   necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods.  The
   results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative
   of the results for the entire fiscal year ending July 31, 2011.

2. Income Per Share of Common Stock:

   Income per share has been computed by dividing the net income for the
   periods by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
   outstanding during the periods, adjusted for the purchase of treasury
   stock.  Shares used in computing income per share were 2,015,780 for the
   three months ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009.

3. Comprehensive Income:

   FASB ASC 220-10 (formerly known as SFAS No. 130), "Reporting Comprehensive
   Income", establishes standards for the reporting of comprehensive income
   and its components.  It requires all items that are required to be
   recognized as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial
   statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other income
   statement information.  Comprehensive income is defined to include all
   changes in equity except those resulting from investments by and
   distributions to shareholders.

                                    -7-

4.  Discontinued Operations:

   The Company's lease with its landlords at the Jowein building in Brooklyn,
   New York expired on April 30, 2010.  The Company returned the premises in
   "as is" condition and the Company will have no obligation to correct, cure
   or take any action relating to repairing such premises other than the cure
   of certain existing violations.

   As part of the settlement the Company paid to the landlords' successor
   ("490 Owner") $1,000,000.  The Company also transferred to 490 Owner title
   to 484 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of
   $4,490,000) subject to the existing tenancy and 490 Owner has caused title
   to 14 Hanover Place, Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of
   $900,000) to be transferred to the Company.  The appraised values of the
   two buildings were based upon a review of "comparables" (other properties
   which are believed by the appraisers to be similar to the properties
   subject to the appraisals).  The appraised values of the two properties
   were not derived from a negotiation between the parties as to the actual
   purchase and sale prices for such properties since no such negotiation took
   place.  Nor were such appraised values derived using other valuation
   methods, such as the net present value from cash flows.  Accordingly, these
   appraised values are merely estimated values of the properties.  The
   exchange was accounted for under ASC Topic 805 "Exchanges of Nonmonetary
   Assets."

5.  Marketable Securities:

   The Company categorizes marketable securities as either trading, available-
   for-sale or held-to-maturity.  Trading securities are carried at fair value
   with unrealized gains and losses included in income.  Available-for-sale
   securities are carried at fair value measurements using quoted prices in
   active markets for identical assets or liabilities (which is considered a
   Level 1 valuation) with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate
   component of shareholders' equity.  Held-to-maturity securities are carried
   at amortized cost.  Dividends and interest income are accrued as earned.
   Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification
   basis.  The Company reviews marketable securities for impairment whenever
   circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that
   the carrying amounts may not be recovered.  The Company did not classify
   any securities as trading during the three months ended October 31, 2010
   and October 31, 2009.  The implementation of ASC 810-10 (formerly FASB
   157), Fair Value Measurements, had no impact on the presentation of
   marketable securities in the Company's financial statements.  The Company
   does not have any assets valued using Level 2 or 3 valuation methods.
   During 2009, the Company adopted ASC 320-10-65, Transition Related to FSB
   FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-
   Temporary Impairment ("ASC 320-10-65").  The implementation of ASC 320-10-
   65 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements.

   In accordance with the provisions of Fair Value Measurements, the following
   are the entity's financial assets presented at fair value at October 31,
   2010.

6. Financial Instruments and Credit Risk Concentrations:

   Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of
   credit risk consist principally of marketable securities, cash and cash
   equivalents and receivables.  Marketable securities and cash and cash
   equivalents are placed with multiple financial institutions and
   instruments to minimize risk.  No assurance can be made that such
   financial institutions and instruments will minimize all such risk.

   The Company derives rental income from fifty-five tenants, of which one
   tenant accounted for 18.46% and another tenant accounted for 16.76% of
   rental income during the three months ended October 31, 2010.  No other
   tenant accounted for more than 10% of rental income during the same
   period.

   The Company has two irrevocable Letters of Credit totaling $297,500 at
   October 31, 2010 and July 31, 2010, provided by two tenants.

(a) The Company, on September 11, 1996, closed a loan with a bank in the
   amount of $4,000,000.  The loan is secured by a first mortgage lien
   covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant, in a
   certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property.  In
   March 2007, the Company extended the loan for five years with an option for
   an additional five year period.  The interest rate for the initial five
   years is 6.00% per annum.  Interest and amortization of principal will be
   made in constant monthly amounts based on a fifteen year (15) payout
   period.  The outstanding balance of the loan totaling $1,036,602 will
   become due and payable on April 1, 2012.

(b) The Company, on December 13, 2000, closed a loan with a bank in the amount
   of $3,500,000.  The loan is secured by a second position leasehold mortgage
   covering the entire leasehold interest of the Company, as tenant, in a
   certain ground lease and building in the Jamaica, New York property.  The
   outstanding balance of the loan, totaling $2,739,452, became due and
   payable on October 1, 2006.  The Company exercised its option to extend the
   loan for a additional five (5) years.  The interest rate for the extended
   period is 6.81% per annum.  The outstanding balance of the loan totaling
   $2,077,680 will become due and payable October, 2011.

   As additional collateral security, the Company conditionally assigned to
   the bank all leases and rents on the premises, or portions thereof,
   whether now existing or hereafter consummated. The Company has an option
   to prepay principal, in whole or in part, plus interest accrued thereon,
   at any time during the term, without premium or penalty. Other
   provisions of the loan agreement provide certain restrictions on the
   incurrence of indebtedness on the Jamaica property and the sale or

(c) On August 19, 2004, the Company extended the then existing loan for an
   additional forty-two (42) months, with an option to convert the loan to a
   seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan.  (See Note 9(d) below).  The
   Company in February 2008 converted the loan to a seven (7) year permanent
   mortgage loan.  The interest rate on conversion was 6.98%.

(d) The Company, on August 19, 2004, closed a loan with a bank for a
   $12,000,000 multiple draw term loan.  This loan finances seventy-five (75%)
   percent of the cost of capital improvements for an existing lease to a
   tenant and capital improvements for potential future tenant leases at the
   Company's Brooklyn, New York (Bond Street building) and Fishkill, New York
   properties through February 2008.  The loan also financed $850,000 towards
   the construction of two new elevators at the Company's Brooklyn, New York
   property (Bond Street building).  The loan consists of:  a) a permanent,
   first mortgage loan to refinance an existing first mortgage loan affecting
   the Fishkill Property, which matured on July 1, 2004 (the "First Permanent
   Loan")(see Note 9(c)), b) a permanent subordinate mortgage loan in the
   amount of $1,870,000 (the "Second Permanent Loan"), and c) multiple,
   successively subordinate loans in the amount $8,295,274 ("Subordinate
   Building Loans").  As of August 19, 2004, the Company refinanced the
   existing mortgage on the Company's Fishkill, New York property, which
   balance was $1,834,726 and took down an additional $2,820,000 for capital
   improvements for two tenants at the Company's Bond Street building in
   Brooklyn, New York.  In fiscal 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company drew down
   additional amounts totaling $916,670, on its multiple draw term loan to
   finance tenant improvements and brokerage commissions for the leasing of
   13,026 square feet for office use at the Company's Bond Street building in
   Brooklyn, New York.  The Company in February 2008 converted the loan to a
   seven (7) year permanent mortgage loan.  The interest rate on conversion
   was 6.98%.  Since the loan has been converted to a permanent mortgage loan,
   the balance of the financing on this loan was for the new elevators at the
   Company's Bond Street building in Brooklyn, New York in the amount of
   $850,000 referred to above.  The $850,000 was drawn down in fiscal 2010.

(e) The Company, on July 22, 2005, closed a loan with a bank for $1,200,000.
   The loan was used to finance the construction costs and brokerage
   commissions associated with the leasing of 15,000 square feet for office
   use to a tenant at the Company's Jowein building in Brooklyn, New York.
   The loan was secured by the assignment of lease of 15,000 square feet.  The
   loan was for a period of five (5) years and was self-amortizing, at a
   floating interest rate of prime plus 1.00% per annum.  The loan was paid in
   full as of August 1, 2010.

13. Capitalization:

   The Company is capitalized entirely through common stock with identical
   voting rights and rights to liquidation.  Treasury stock is recorded at
   cost and consists of 162,517 shares at October 31, 2010 and at July 31,
   2010.

14. Contingencies:

   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 Condensed Consolidated
   Financial Statements.

   In response to a termination notice that the Company received concerning
   its tenancy in a portion of the Jowein building, Brooklyn, New York, on
   April 25, 2007, the Company filed a lawsuit against its landlords in New
   York State Supreme Court, Kings County.  In the lawsuit, the Company sought
   a judgment declaring that the landlords' termination notice was improperly
   issued and that the Company was not required to correct or cure the
   purported defaults cited in the termination notice.  In addition, the
   Company sought an order temporarily, preliminarily and permanently
   enjoining the landlords from taking any action to terminate the lease or
   otherwise interfere with the Company's possession of the premises.

   The lawsuit that was brought by the Company against its prior landlords
   concerning the Company's tenancy in a portion of the Jowein building at 490
   Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York ("490 Fulton") has been dismissed
   pursuant to a stipulation of discontinuance filed on June 1, 2010.  The
   dismissal of the lawsuit is with prejudice and includes all claims and
   counterclaims relating to the Company's tenancy and the lawsuit.

   In connection with the settlement, the Company has paid to the landlords'
   successor ("490 Owner") $1,000,000.  In return, 490 Owner has provided to
   the  Company general releases of past, present and future claims relating
   to the lease of 490 Fulton from former landlords Snyder Fulton Street, LLC
   and Fulton Interest, LLC and successor landlord 490 Owner.

   The Company has transferred to 490 Owner title to 484 Fulton Street,
   Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of $4,490,000) subject to the
   existing tenancy and 490 Owner has caused title to 14 Hanover Place,
   Brooklyn, New York (with an appraised value of $900,000) to be transferred
   to the Company.  The appraised values of the two buildings were merely
   based upon a review of "comparables" (other properties which are believed
   by the appraisers to be similar to the properties subject to the
   appraisals).  The appraised values of the two properties were not derived
   from a negotiation between the parties as to the actual purchase and sale
   prices for such properties since no such negotiation took place.  Nor were
   such appraised values derived using other valuation methods, such as the
   net present value from cash flows.  Accordingly, these appraised values are
   merely estimated values of the properties.

                                    -14-

   The Company has entered into a 49-year lease with a designee of 490 Owner
   for approximately 20,000 square feet in the basement, first and second
   floors of 25 Elm Place, Brooklyn, New York at an annual rental of $100,000,
   with 10% rent escalations every five years.

   The Company surrendered to 490 Owner possession of 490 Fulton as of May 1,
   2010 in "as is" condition and the Company has no obligation to correct,
   cure or take any action relating to repairing such premises other than the
   cure of certain existing violations as documented in the settlement
   agreement.  The Company retains rights to access and maintain certain
   offices, equipment and systems in the alleyway between 490 Fulton and 25
   Elm Place.

   490 Owner will indemnify and hold the Company harmless from all claims by
   its affiliates and the landlord concerning the Company's obligations under
   its lease at 14 Hanover Place.

   The Company is required to remove the foot bridge over Bond Street in
   Brooklyn, New York by June 2012.  The estimated cost has not yet been
   determined.

   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 Company has a commitment to do construction work in connection with a
   new lease agreement for 18,218 square feet at the Company's Nine Bond
   Street Brooklyn, New York building.  The costs related to the construction
   work are estimated at $1,500,000.

         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 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 8 and 9 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July
31, 2010).

                                    -15-

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended October 31, 2010 Compared to the Three Months Ended October
31, 2009:

In the three months ended October 31, 2010, the Company reported net income of
$174,955, or $.09 per share.  In the comparable three months ended October 31,
2009, the Company reported net income of $298,454, or $.15 per share.

In the three months ended October 31, 2010, the Company reported net income
from continuing operations of $174,955, or $.09 per share.  In the comparable
three months ended October 31, 2009, the Company reported net income from
continuing operations of $328,834, or $.16 per share.

In the three months ended October 31, 2009, the Company reported a net loss
from discontinued operations of ($30,380), or ($.01) per share.  In the
comparable three months ended October 31, 2010, the Company did not have
discontinued operations.

Revenues from continuing operations in the current three months decreased to
$3,608,290 from $3,753,252 in the comparable 2009 three months.  The decrease
in revenues was primarily due to a real estate tax refund in the 2009 year
(see below).

There was a recovery of real estate taxes, net of legal expenses in the 2009
three months in the amount of $114,251.  The comparable 2010 three months did
not have a recovery of real estate taxes.

Real estate operating expenses from continuing operations in the current three
months increased slightly to $1,863,977 from $1,860,937 in the comparable 2009
three months primarily due to an increase in maintenance expense, partially
offset by decreases in real estate taxes, insurance costs and rental expense.

Administrative and general expenses from continuing operations in the current
three months increased slightly to $874,173 from $872,018 in the comparable
2009 three months primarily due to increases in payroll costs and legal and
professional costs partially offset by decreases in insurance costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations in the
current three months increased to $391,195 from $374,929 in the comparable
2009 three months.  The increase was due to improvements on the Nine Bond
Street building in Brooklyn, New York.

Interest expense in the current three months exceeded investment income by
$154,990 and by $140,534 in the comparable 2009 three months. The increase in
the excess of interest expense over investment income was due primarily to
additional interest expense on the additional elevator loan, offset by
scheduled repayments of debt.


Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The Company has been operating as a real estate enterprise since the
discontinuance of the retail department store segment of its operations on
January 3, 1989.

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 $2,767,160 at October 31,
2010.

In September 2009, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a drive-in
restaurant at the Company's Massapequa premises. The drive-in restaurant
intends to construct a new building. The tenant's occupancy is subject to it
receiving the necessary building permits and licenses to construct the
building and open for business within a reasonable time period. Rent is
anticipated to commence in late 2011. This will replace the tenant that
vacated the premises in April 2009. The rental income from this lease
agreement will more than offset the rental income lost from the previous
tenant.

In October, 2010, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a tenant for
18,218 square feet for office space at the Company's Nine Bond Street,

                                    -16-

Brooklyn, New York building.  The cost of construction and brokerage
commissions to the Company will be approximately $2,000,000.  The Company
plans to finance these costs through operating funds.  Rent is anticipated to
commence in late 2011.


Cash Flows From Operating Activities:

Deferred Charges: The Company had expenditures for brokerage commissions in
the three months ended October 31, 2010 in the amount of $475,140, relating to
a tenant at its Brooklyn, New York property.

Payroll and Other Accrued Liabilities: The Company incurred $475,140 for
brokerage commissions in order to lease space at the Company's property in
Brooklyn, New York in the three months ended October 31, 2010.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities:

The Company had expenditures of $101,000 in the three months ended October 31,
2010 for the renovation of 18,218 square feet for office space for a tenant at
the Company's Nine Bond Street Brooklyn, New York building.  The cost of the
project is estimated to be $1,500,000 and is anticipated to be completed in
May 2011.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:

This section, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, other sections of this Report on Form 10-Q and other
reports and verbal statements made by our representatives from time to time
may contain forward-looking statements that are based on our assumptions,
expectations and projections about us and the securities industry. 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. We
caution that a variety of factors, including but not limited to the factors
listed below, could cause business conditions and our results to differ
materially from what is contained in forward-looking statements:

 changes in the rate of economic growth in the United States;
 the ability to obtain credit from financial institutions and at what costs;
 changes in the financial condition of our customers;
 changes in regulatory environment;
 lease cancellations;
 changes in our estimates of costs;
 war and/or terrorist attacks on facilities where services are or may be
provided;
 outcomes of pending and future litigation;
 increasing competition by other companies;
 compliance with our loan covenants;
 recoverability of claims against our customers and others by us and claims
by third parties against us; and
 changes in estimates used in our critical accounting policies.

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. Most of these factors are
difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You
should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any
forward-looking statements that may be made by us.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are
advised, however, to review any additional disclosures we make in proxy
statements, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K and
Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                    -17-


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks:

The Company uses fixed-rate debt to finance its capital requirements.  These
transactions expose the Company to market risk related to changes in interest
rates.  The Company does not use derivative financial instruments.  At October
31, 2010, the Company had fixed-rate debt of $10,359,082.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures:

The Company's management reviewed the Company's internal controls and
procedures and the effectiveness of these controls. As of October 31, 2010,
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.

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 are 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.

                                    -18-

Part II - Other Information

  Item 1A.  Risk Factors
