GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Interim Period Reporting
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Grubb & Ellis
Company, its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries and
controlled partnerships (the "Company"), and are
prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial
information. The information presented includes all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to a fair statement of results for the
interim periods reported. All adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature. Such information should be
read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993.
Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified
to conform to the current presentation.
2. Income Taxes
The Company's tax provision is attributable to current
state tax liabilities.
3. Loss Per Common Share and Equivalents
Loss per common share and equivalents computations are
based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding after giving effect to potential dilution
from common stock options and warrants.
The calculation of loss per share of common stock
includes net loss plus amounts applicable to the Senior
and Junior Preferred Stock for the undeclared dividends
(accretion of liquidation preference) earned in the
amounts of approximately $444,000 and $194,000,
respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 1994.
4. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company was contingently liable for approximately
$486,000 at March 31, 1994 as a guarantor of certain
notes payable of real estate joint ventures and
partnerships. These notes payable mature at various
dates through 1998. Of the Company's contingent
liability at March 31, 1994, substantially all is
collateralized by land and improved property of these
entities. In the opinion of management, the current
underlying value of the assets collateralizing the
contingent liabilities is greater than the related
obligations guaranteed by the Company. The Company has
also indemnified two wholly owned partnerships for
their contingent liabilities of up to $2 million each.
Grubb & Ellis Asset Services Company ("GEASC") since
September 1993 has voluntarily withdrawn from entering
into new service contracts with the Resolution Trust
Corporation (the "RTC") and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") until certain
federal government contracting compliance requirements
are met relative to one of the Company's principal
shareholders. In April 1994, the Company was notified
by the RTC that it has proposed to exclude the Company
and GEASC from RTC contracting as the Company had not
filed certain reports with the RTC. The Company plans
to file a response to the RTC's proposed exclusion and
is unable to predict the outcome or timing of these
</PAGE>
GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
matters or whether or when it will be allowed to resume
RTC and FDIC contracting services.
Johsz et al v. Koll Company et al was filed in the
Orange County (California) Superior Court on March 14,
1994 against the Koll Company, Grubb & Ellis Company,
Koll Center Number 10, a California general partnership
("Koll"), and Southern California Edison Company
("Edison"). The Complaint has not yet been served and
no discovery has been conducted. The plaintiffs, two
former Company brokers, their wives, and a current
Company employee, allege that the brokers and employee
acquired cancer from electromagnetic waves produced by
the electric transformer owned by Edison and situated
in a vault below office space leased by the Company in
a building owned by Koll. The Complaint alleges
negligence, battery, negligent infliction of emotional
distress, fraudulent concealment, loss of consortium
and, against Edison only, strict liability. Specific
damages were not pled, but punitive as well as
compensatory damages are sought. The potential
financial impact of this lawsuit on the Company cannot
not yet be determined.
The Company is involved in various other claims and
lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, as
well as in connection with its participation in various
joint ventures, partnerships and a trust. In the
opinion of management, upon the advice of counsel, the
eventual outcome of such claims and lawsuits will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position.
5. Long-Term Debt Modifications and Proposed Rights
Offering
During March 1994, the Company, Warburg, Pincus
Investors, L.P. ("Warburg") and The Prudential
Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") entered
into an agreement in principle (the "Agreement")
pursuant to which certain provisions of the existing
Prudential debt agreements were waived to provide that
the Company will not be required to make principal
payments on any of the Prudential debt during 1994.
Upon formal amendment of such debt agreements, the
revolving credit facility will mature on November 1,
1999, principal on the Senior Note will be payable in
two equal installments on November 1, 1997 and 1998,
and principal on the PIK Notes will be payable in two
approximately equal installments on November 1, 2000
and 2001. The interest rate on the PIK Notes will
increase from 10.65% to 11.65% per annum on January 1,
1996. In addition, certain covenants of the debt
agreements remain in place, but will not be in effect
until April 1, 1997. The debt agreements, as amended,
will provide for supplemental principal payments
commencing July 1, 1998 if the Company meets certain
financial tests.
The Agreement also provided for the Company to seek
additional equity capital through a rights offering,
subject to stockholder approval, and for Warburg to
loan the Company up to $10 million at an initial
interest rate of 5% per annum with a maturity date of
April 28, 1995 ("Warburg Interim Financing Loan"). The
interest rate will increase to 10% per annum in the
event that stockholder approval of certain of the
</PAGE>
GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
transactions contemplated by the Agreement is not
obtained. Interest on the loan will be due upon
maturity or upon refinancing, whichever occurs first.
The loan is secured by the Company's commercial
brokerage revenues through a cash collateral account.
Prudential also has a lien on the cash collateral
account which will be subordinated to Warburg's loan.
The Company has borrowed $4 million from Warburg under
this facility. Warburg has agreed to acquire the
common stock not acquired by the holders of common
stock in the rights offering, through the conversion of
the Warburg Interim Financing Loan up to an amount not
exceeding $10 million plus accrued interest on the
loan.
The Agreement also contemplates certain amendments to
the existing Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants
to purchase common stock of the Company held by Warburg
and Prudential, and the issuance of additional warrants
to Warburg and Prudential, also subject to stockholder
approval.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Revenue
The Company has typically experienced its lowest quarterly
revenue in the first quarter of each year with historically
higher and more consistent revenue in the second and third
quarters. The fourth quarter has historically provided the
highest quarterly level of revenue due to increased activity
caused by the desire of clients to complete transactions by
year-end. However, quarterly revenue variations are not
significant. Over the last three years, revenue in any
given quarter, as a percentage of total annual revenue,
ranged from a high of no more than 29.2% to a low of 21.1%.
Revenue of $39.1 million for the first quarter of 1994
declined $3.2 million or 7.6% from revenue of $42.3 million
in the first quarter of 1993. Excluding revenue from the
sold Northern California residential brokerage operations
and certain offices closed during the last quarter of 1993
and first quarter of 1994, as well as government contracting
business conducted during the first quarter of 1993 not
repeated in 1994 (See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements), revenue increased approximately $2.8
million or 7.9% in the first quarter of 1994 compared to the
first quarter of 1993.
Effective February 1, 1994, the Company modified its
reporting structure to increase operating efficiencies and
reduce costs. The modifications include the integration of
management of commercial brokerage operations with the
appraisal and consulting and commercial mortgage brokerage
operations, on a regional basis. The integration also
includes those property management operations which the
Company has resumed, independent of Axiom Real Estate
Management, Inc. ("Axiom"), a majority owned subsidiary of
the Company which provides property and facilities
management. Axiom closed certain offices pursuant to its
strategic objectives. Additionally, in February 1994, the
Company closed several unprofitable appraisal and consulting
offices.
</PAGE>
Increases in revenue of $1.1 million or 26.6% and $185,000
or 1.9%, as compared to the first quarter of 1993, occurred
in the Pacific Northwest and Pacific Southwest regions,
respectively. These increases were offset by declines in
revenue in the Eastern and Midwest/Texas regions of $544,000
or 8.5% and $254,000 or 2.9%, respectively.
Revenue from the Company's remaining residential brokerage
operation increased $241,000 or 6.8% as compared to the
first quarter of 1993 and property management, under Axiom,
improved $226,000 or 4.6%. Revenue from the existing
residential mortgage brokerage operations declined $167,000
or 31.3% from the first quarter of 1993.
Costs and Expenses
Real estate brokerage commissions expense (salespersons'
participation) is the Company's major expense and is
contingent upon gross brokerage commission revenue levels.
As a percentage of total revenue, salespersons'
participation expense for the three months ended March 31,
1994 decreased to 47.4% from 49.6% for the same period in
1993. This decrease is primarily a result of the sale of
the Northern California residential brokerage operation.
Operating expenses, other than real estate brokerage
commissions expense, of $25.2 million for the first quarter
of 1994 declined by 2.5% from $25.9 million in the first
quarter of 1993. Excluding the decline in expenses
resulting from the sale of Northern California residential
brokerage operations and the closure of the offices
discussed above, operating expenses increased by $2.0
million or 8.6% in the first quarter of 1994 compared to the
same period of 1993. The increase was primarily a result of
several key management positions being filled in the latter
part of 1993 and additional investments in training,
computer systems, and other resources anticipated to improve
future profits.
Net Loss
The net loss for each of the first quarters of 1994 and 1993
was $4.7 million. Net loss per common share was $1.33 for
the first quarter of 1994 compared to $1.30 for the same
period last year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $12.0 million from
December 31, 1993 to March 31, 1994. The decrease was mainly
attributable to cash used by operations of $15.7 million,
which included $5.4 million for 1993 salespersons' and
managers' incentive compensation, $2.6 million for deferred
salespersons' commission payments, and an interest payment
of $495,000 on the Prudential Senior Note. These cash
outflows were offset by cash received of $4 million from the
Warburg interim financing loan (see Note 5 of Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements).
During the first quarter, working capital increased by $8.1
million to a deficit of $9.7 million, primarily due to the
modification of terms on the Prudential debt. The
modification had the effect of reclassifying approximately
$9 million of principal payments on the Prudential Senior,
Subordinated and Revolving Credit Notes from current to
noncurrent liabilities. Additionally, the Company borrowed
$4 million on the Warburg interim financing loan.
</PAGE>
Stockholders' deficit was $74.1 million or $18.02 per share
at March 31, 1994 as compared to $68.9 million or $16.96 per
share at December 31, 1993. The accumulated deficit
increased to $121.7 million from $117.0 million at December
31, 1993.
The Company believes that its short-term and long-term cash
requirements will be met by operating cash flow, seasonal
use of the Prudential $5-million Revolving Credit Note, use
of the interim financing provided by Warburg (see Note 5 of
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements), and
assuming the Company obtains the required stockholder
approval, the subsequent sale of rights to acquire common
stock in the Company (also discussed in Note 5). Although
first quarter operating cash flow was not positive,
historically the Company's cash flow typically has improved
in each subsequent quarter. While the Company's full year
operating plan for 1994 provides for positive operating cash
flow, the Company was unable to generate positive operating
cash flow during 1993 despite plans to do so. If the 1994
operating plan is not substantially achieved because of
adverse economic conditions or other unfavorable events, the
Company may find it necessary to further reduce expense
levels, or undertake other actions as may be appropriate.
