Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2000
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
from the records of Dover Investments Corporation without audit. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report to Stockholders.
2. Net Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed, on a combined basis, for the two
classes of common stock, Class A and Class B. Computations are based upon
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The weighted
average number of Class A and Class B shares used to compute basic income
per share was 1,142,639 at September 30, 2000, and 1,082,933 at
September 30, 1999. Diluted income per share took into consideration the
outstanding stock options.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The information set forth below and elsewhere in this document contains
forward-looking statements, which reflect the Company's current views with
respect to future events and financial performance. The words "expects",
"intends", "believes", "anticipates", "likely" and "will" and similar
expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. These forward-
looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including,
among others, the risks discussed herein, that could cause actual results
and events to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated
in the forward-looking statements.
General
Dover Investments Corporation (the "Company") engages primarily in
residential real estate development. Westco Community Builders, Inc.,
a California corporation ("WCB"), is primarily responsible for the
construction and the development of real estate.
Real Estate Development
Below is a summary of the Company's major real estate development
activities during the quarter ended September 30, 2000.
Marina Vista
The Company completed development of its Marina Vista project in San
Leandro, California during the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
Glenbriar Estates
The Company, through joint ventures with WCB, continued to develop the
Glenbriar Estates project in Tracy, California. All of the land owned by the
joint ventures is covered by either vesting tentative subdivision maps or
final subdivision maps. The joint ventures are currently building two
product types of homes at Glenbriar Estates, the Glenbrook Subdivision and
the Meadowbrook Subdivision. The market for homes at Glenbriar Estates
remained strong during the third quarter of 2000. Future development in
Tracy is subject to the availability of residential growth allocations
issued by the City of Tracy, which could be negatively affected by the
passage of a citizens initiative during the year 2000, reduced availability
of water or waste water capacity, and the state of the economy generally
in the Bay Area.
Higher Priced Homes
In September of 1999, the Company entered into a joint venture with
WCB to develop one higher priced home. The property is located in Atherton,
California, and construction is scheduled for completion in approximately
July 2001.
South Tracy Industrial Park
In 1999 the Company, through a joint venture with WCB, entered into an
agreement to purchase and develop for industrial use approximately fifty
acres of industrial property in the southern part of the City of Tracy.
The South Tracy property currently is zoned industrial. A tentative
subdivision map has been approved by the City of Tracy, and approval of a
final subdivision map is pending. The Company expects that site improvements
will commence in the fourth quarter of 2000 and that construction of the first
two industrial buildings (approximately 30,000 sq. ft. each) will commence
in the first quarter of 2001. Development and rental of the industrial
park is expected to continue for several years.
Other Properties
The company in conjunction with WCB has entered into contracts to
purchase two additional properties in San Leandro (19 lots) and Novato
(20 lots). Both purchase contracts are conditional upon receipt of
entitlements prior to close of escrow. Close of escrow is not expected
to occur prior to year end.
Coram Plaza Shopping Center, Coram, New York
In 1999 a limited liability company formed by the Company and three
other parties entered into an agreement to purchase property, with buildings
and improvements, located in the Coram Plaza Shopping Center, in Coram,
New York. The property is intended to be developed for commercial use.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company used
liquid assets primarily to fund expenditures in connection with the Glenbriar
Estates project, the higher priced home, debt service and its general and
administrative expenses. The Company met its funding requirements primarily
from cash reserves and from revenues from home and lot sales. The Company
also obtained construction financing from private sources secured by the
homes under construction.
The Company's primary sources of liquidity in the future will continue
to be cash reserves and revenues generated from the development projects,
and construction financing when appropriate.
At September 30, 2000, the Company had an aggregate outstanding balance
of $4,095,000 under its construction loans. These loans will be repaid from
the proceeds of home and lot sales. The loans bear interest at the rate of
prime plus 0.75% through 1.25% per annum and have various maturity dates.
Results of Operations
For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Company had net income of
$1,418,000, compared to $1,683,000 for the same period in 1999.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Company closed no home
sales at the Marina Vista project, compared to 11 homes for the same period
in 1999. At the Glenbriar Estates project, the Company closed the sale of
41 homes and 41 lots for the quarter ended September 30, 2000, compared to
37 homes and 37 lots for the same period in 1999.
Total sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 were $13,615,000,
resulting in a gross profit of $2,738,000 and a gross profit margin of
20.11%, compared to total sales of $21,808,000, resulting in a gross
profit of $4,125,000 and a gross profit margin of 18.92%, for the same
period in 1999. The increase in gross profit resulted primarily from an
increase in sales prices and the strong California real estate market in
general. The decrease in sales resulted primarily from no home sales at
the Marina Vista project and no sales of higher priced homes for the period.
Minority interest in joint ventures for the third quarter of 2000
was $1,394,000, compared to $1,211,000 for the same period in 1999. The
increase in minority interest is attributable to the sale of a larger
number of homes and lots at the Glenbriar Estates project.
Selling expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 were $605,000,
which represents 4.44% of revenues for that quarter, compared to $1,406,000,
which represents 6.45% of revenues for the same period in 1999. The decrease
in selling expenses was primarily due to decreased sales at the development
projects and decreased marketing and related commission expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000 were $443,000, compared to $213,000 for the same period
in 1999, an increase of 107.98%. The increase was primarily due to
increased staffing, salary increases, increased professional, legal and
printing fees, and the initial funding of the Company's qualified
retirement plan.
Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was $443,000,
compared to $198,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase is
attributable to higher cash balances, increases in interest rates and
increased interest income from notes receivable.
The Company expects that the development projects will continue to generate
profits. Factors such as interest rates and general economic conditions
influence the prices at which the Company is able to sell homes and lots
and other developed properties.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates
relates primarily to the Company's investment in high credit quality
securities maintained with three financial institutions and the Company's
notes payable. The Company's objective in managing its exposure to interest
rate changes is to limit the impact of changes on earnings and cash flow
and to lower its overall borrowing costs. The Company believes the
financial risks associated with these investments and notes are minimal.
