Paragraph (a)(5).
Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's cash and cash equivalents balance consists of working capital
and undistributed cash flow from operations. At September 30, 1996, the
Partnership's cash and cash equivalents balance was $436,015, compared to
$502,341 at December 31, 1995. The decrease is primarily attributable to the
payment of cash distributions in excess of cash flow generated from operations.
At September 30, 1996, the Partnership had distributions payable of $430,858,
which were subsequently distributed to the partners on October 30, 1996.
Rent receivable totaled $180,965 at September 30, 1996, compared to $50,447 at
December 31, 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to rental income
earned by the Partnership during the third quarter of 1996 which had not been
paid by Burger King Corporation ("BKC") as of September 30, 1996.
Due from BKC decreased from $50,977 at December 31, 1995 to $0 at September 30,
1996. The decrease is attributable to a refund of a portion of BKC's
management fees paid by the Partnership during 1995 which was received during
the first quarter of 1996. In accordance with the terms of the property
management agreement between BKC and the Partnership, BKC is required to refund
all or a portion of the annual management fee paid by the Partnership if rents
from the properties (individually, a "Property" and, collectively, the
"Properties") do not provide an annual return of 15.5% on the Partnership's
initial investment, as defined in the property management agreement.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased from $40,838 at December 31,
1995 to $31,132 at September 30, 1996. The decrease is primarily attributable
to the payment of the Partnership's 1995 audit and tax fees.
After a careful evaluation of existing market conditions, BK III Restaurants
Inc., the general partner of the Partnership (the "General Partner"), has
decided to market the Partnership's remaining 24 Properties for sale. The
General Partner currently plans to commence its marketing efforts in the fourth
quarter of 1996. Until all of the Properties are sold, the Partnership intends
to continue operating the Properties and distributing cash flow from operations
to the partners in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
Results of Operations
The Partnership generated net income for the three-month and nine- month
periods ended September 30, 1996 of $358,023 and $1,072,139, respectively,
compared to $357,741 and $1,002,683, respectively, for the corresponding
periods in 1995. The increase in net income for the nine-month period is
primarily attributable to an increase in rental income and, to a lesser extent,
a decrease in general and administrative expenses, which were partially offset
by increases in ground lease rents and management fees paid to BKC.
Rental income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996 was $572,218 and $1,716,981, respectively, compared to $565,175 and
$1,632,611, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1995. The increases
in rental income are primarily attributable to an increase in food and beverage
sales at the Properties which resulted in an increase in percentage rental
income and, to a lesser extent, scheduled escalations in ground lease rents at
the leasehold Properties. Ground lease rent escalations received from the
franchisees are offset by a corresponding increase in the ground lease rents
paid by the Partnership to BKC. Management fees, which are based on the amount
of rental income received by the Partnership, were higher for the three-month
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 due to the increase in
percentage rental income.
General and administrative expenses for the three-month and nine- month periods
ended September 30, 1996 totalled $19,564 and $58,044, respectively, compared
to $17,817 and $70,040, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1995.
The decrease for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996 is primarily
attributable to a decrease in environmental consulting fees incurred by the
Partnership during the first nine months of 1996.
