NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CENTURY REALTY TRUST
March 31, 2000
Unaudited
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Trust's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
NOTE 2 - MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE
Ten of the fifteen properties owned by the Trust are encumbered by
mortgage loans that are payable in monthly installments totaling approximately
$210,000, including interest at fixed rates ranging from 6.97% to 9% per annum,
and which mature from December 1, 2000 to August 1, 2008. Scheduled payments
during the three months ended March 31, 2000 decreased mortgage loan balances,
in the aggregate, by $128,965.
The five apartment properties owned by the operating partnerships
controlled by the Trust have long-term mortgage loans that are payable in
monthly installments totaling approximately $76,000. The loans have interest
rates ranging from 8 1/8% to 8 7/8%, and mature from June 1, 2006 to May 1,
2030. Scheduled payments during the three months ended March 31, 2000
decreased mortgage loan balances, in the aggregate, by $27,334.
Note 3 - Real Estate Investment Transactions
In November, 1997, the Trust, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, CR
Management, Inc., acquired for 286,908 operating partnership units and other
consideration, the general partner interest in five limited partnerships each
of which owned as its principal asset a single apartment property. In
accordance with a provision in the agreement the Trust granted, effective
January 1, 2000, to all beneficial owners of partnership units the right to
exchange their units for an equal number of shares of the Trust. Holders of
160,110 units elected to exchange units for shares as of January 1, 2000.
The Trust immediately repurchased for treasury 9,813 of those shares. On
April 1, 2000, holders of 21,499 units elected to exchange units for shares.
The Trust immediately repurchased 1,079 of those shares for treasury. The
exchange offer provides that exchanges will be exercised effective on the first
day of each calendar quarter. Following the exchanges as of April 1, 2000,
105,299 operating partnership units were outstanding.
NOTE 4 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Trust intends to continue as a real estate investment trust as defined
in the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute its taxable income. Assuming
compliance with other requirements of the Code, income distributed will not be
taxable to the Trust. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is
made in the financial statements. Distributions, however, to the extent that
such payments are from earnings and profits of the Trust, are taxable to the
shareholder recipients as dividend income.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Contained in this discussion are forward-looking statements which
management believe to be reasonable and informative. Such statements are
based on assumptions which may not prove to be correct for reasons management
cannot predict. Consequently, the inclusion of forward-looking statements
should not be considered as representations by the Trust or its management
that expected results will be achieved or that stated objectives will be
attained.
At March 31, 2000 and 1999, and throughout the quarters then ended, the
Trust owned or controlled fifteen apartment communities containing 2,136
apartment units, three multi-tenant commercial properties containing 89,000
rentable square feet, and two restaurant properties leased to operators under
net leases. Five of the fifteen apartment communities containing a total of
586 units are owned by partnerships over which the Trust has exclusive control.
A detailed listing of the investment real estate is contained on Page 2 of the
Trust's 1999 annual report. At March 31, 2000 and 1999 the Trust's net
investment in real estate consisted of apartment properties (94%), commercial
properties (5%) and net-leased restaurant properties (1%). Except for one
restaurant property in Orlando, Florida, the Trusts' real estate investments
are located in Indiana.
The apartment communities, which comprise 94% of the Trust's investment
property, also account for most of the rental income and expenses reported.
Management expects the real estate portfolio will be unchanged during the
second quarter of 2000, and that operating income and expenses will be
comparable with the second quarter of 1999.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the first quarter of 2000, the Trust reported a $16,700, or .5%,
decrease in income from real estate operations from the comparable 1999 period.
Income from apartment operations decreased by $10,000, or .3%, from the prior
year. Higher average rental rates in 2000, up 1.1%, were more than offset by
lower economic occupancy rates. Economic occupancy for the first quarter of
2000 was 92.8%, down from 94% in the prior year quarter.
Rental properties other than apartments accounted for 5.6% of total income
from rental operations in the first quarter of 2000. Gross income from
non-apartment properties decreased $6,800 from the prior year quarter due
primarily to lower occupancy rates. Occupancy rates averaged 93% during the
first quarter of 2000, down from 97% during the comparable quarter of 1999.
Operating expenses, excluding interest and depreciation, for all of the
apartment properties amounted to 48.1% of gross possible income for the first
quarter of 2000, down from 48.4% for the prior year period, and amounted to
an increase of $6,582, or .4%, in total operating expenses. A comparatively
moderate winter season following an unusually severe winter a year ago resulted
in lower utility costs and winter-related repair expenses during the 2000
quarter. Snow and ice removal costs during the 2000 quarter amounted to
approximately $18,000, one half the cost incurred in the first quarter a year
ago.
Real estate taxes on Indiana property are assessed on March 1 each year
and are payable in two installments in the following calendar year. Real
estate tax expense for the first quarter represents one-fourth of the estimated
real estate taxes payable during the next calendar year. Estimates are based
on actual tax payments during the preceding year with allowances for anticipated
rate increases comparable with past experience.
Annual listing fees for NASDAQ of $6,900 and an increase of $10,600 in
legal fees related to general business matters accounted for the increase in
general and administrative expenses between the quarters ended March 31, 2000
and 1999.
Administrative salaries and related payroll taxes and benefits, increased
by less than $600, approximately 1%, over the prior year quarter. In the first
quarter of 2000, general and administrative expenses consumed 4.6% of income
from real estate operations, up from 4.1% in the first quarter of 1999.
Interest expense, all of which related to loans outstanding throughout
the first quarters of 2000 and 1999, decreased by $20,240 due the scheduled
reduction of loan balances. Interest expense applicable to mortgage loans on
partnership-owned properties accounted for $2,100 of the reduction.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
On April 6, 2000, the Trust declared a $.20 per share cash distribution
payable May 15, 2000 to shareholders of record April 28, 2000. With 1,697,911
shares outstanding, that distribution will require $339,582. Four of the five
controlled partnerships declared surplus cash distributions aggregating $52,300
payable May 25, 2000 to partners of record April 28, 2000.
Other than the requirement of $391,882 for declared, but unpaid
distributions management is not aware of any significant transactions or events
which would require material expenditures in 2000.
Except for $100,000 of short-term debt, the Trust has no obligations, nor
has it made any commitments, which will require expenditures in excess of funds
anticipated to be provided by operations during the remainder of 2000. No
transactions or events have occurred to indicate that funds provided by
operations during the balance of 2000 will differ disproportionately from the
first quarter of the year. At March 31, 2000, the Trust held cash and cash
equivalents of approximately $936,000 in its own accounts and $172,000 in
partnership accounts which management believes is sufficient to meet anticipated
working capital requirements.
INFLATION
Management believes that the direct effects of inflation on the Trust's
quarterly operations have been insignificant during 1999 and 2000.
PART II
Item 6(b). No events occurred during the three months ended March 31,
2000, which would have necessitated the filing of a report on Form 8K.
MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATIONS
The information furnished in this report, while not audited, includes
all adjustments, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
representation of the financial position of Century Realty Trust at March
31, 2000, and December 31, 1999, and the results of its operations and its
cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2000, and March 31, 1999, in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
The interim results reported are not necessarily indicative of expected results
for the full year, and should be considered in conjunction with the audited
financial statements contained in the Trust's 1999 annual report.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934,
