MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Balcor Equity Properties-XVIII A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership formed in 1984 to invest in and operate
income-producing real property. The Partnership raised $52,811,000 through the
sale of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized these proceeds to acquire
four real property investments and a minority joint venture interest in one
additional real property. The joint venture property was sold in 1994 and 101
Marietta Tower office complex was sold in February 1996. The Partnership
continues to operate three properties.
Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1995 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.
Operations
- ----------
Summary of Operations
- ---------------------
Due to the February 1996 sale of the 101 Marietta Tower office complex, the
Partnership recognized decreased income before extraordinary item during 1996.
In addition, the purchaser of the 101 Marietta Tower office complex acquired
the property subject to the existing first mortgage loan and the Partnership
recognized an extraordinary gain on extinguishment of debt in 1996. As a
result of these occurrences, the Partnership recognized a slight increase in
net income during the first quarter of 1996 as compared to 1995. Further
discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below.
1996 Compared to 1995
- ---------------------
Unless otherwise noted, discussions of fluctuations between 1996 and 1995 refer
to the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.
Due to the February 1996 sale of 101 Marietta Tower office complex, the
Partnership recognized lower rental and service income, interest on mortgage
notes payable, depreciation, property operating, and property management fee
expenses during 1996 as compared to 1995.
Due to higher cash balances resulting from the proceeds received from the 101
Marietta Tower sale, interest income on short-term investments increased during
1996 as compared to 1995.
A lower property assessment at the 101 Marietta Tower office complex,
retroactive to the 1993 tax year, resulted in a refund of 1993 real estate
taxes received during 1995. This amount was recognized as other income in the
quarter ended March 31, 1995.
The decrease in property operating expense due to the 101 Marietta Tower
<PAGE>
office comples sale was partially offset by additional payroll and repairs
and maintenance costs incurred at the Knollwood
Village Apartments during 1996.
The purchaser of the 101 Marietta Tower office complex acquired the property in
February 1996 subject to the existing first mortgage loan. The Partnership
recognized an extraordinary gain on extinguishment of debt in 1996 representing
the difference between the contractual amount of the first mortgage loan at the
date of sale and the carrying amount of the note for financial statement
purposes. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional
information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The cash position of the Partnership increased by approximately $8,981,000 as
of March 31, 1996 as compared to December 31, 1995 primarily due to the
proceeds received from the sale of 101 Marietta Tower office complex. Cash flow
of approximately $1,191,000 was provided by operating activities during 1996
consisting primarily of cash provided by the operation of the Partnership's
properties and interest income received on short-term investments. The
Partnership's investing activities generated cash of approximately $8,181,000
from the sale of 101 Marietta Tower office complex. Cash of approximately
$392,000 was used in financing activities primarily consisting of distributions
to Limited Partners and principal payments on mortgage notes payable.
The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of its properties as
either positive, a marginal deficit or a significant deficit, each after
consideration of debt service payments. The Partnership defines cash flow
generated from its properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue
receipts less property related expenditures, which include debt service
payments. All three of the Partnership's remaining properties have underlying
debt. During 1996 and 1995, all three of the Partnership's properties generated
positive cash flow. 101 Marietta Tower office complex generated positive cash
flow in 1995 and before it was sold in February 1996. As of March 31, 1996,
the occupancy rates of the Partnership's properties ranged from 94% to 99%.
While the cash flow of certain of the Partnership's properties has improved,
the General Partner continues to pursue actions aimed at improving property
operating performance and to seek rent increases where market conditions allow.
The General Partner believes that the market for multifamily housing properties
has become increasingly favorable to sellers of these properties. Currently,
the Partnership has entered into a contract to sell Mallard Cove Apartments for
a sales price of $7,850,000 and is preparing to market the remaining two
properties in its portfolio. During February 1996, the Partnership sold the
101 Marietta Tower office complex. If current market conditions remain
favorable and the General Partner can obtain appropriate sales prices, the
Partnership's liquidation strategy may be accelerated.
In April 1996, the Partnership paid $16,371,410 ($310.00 per Interest)
representing the regular quarterly distribution of Net Cash Receipts of $5.00
per Interest for the first quarter of 1996, a special Net Cash Receipts
distribution of $130.00 per Interest from cash reserves, and a special
distribution of Net Cash Proceeds of $175.00 per Interest primarily from 101
Marietta Tower office complex sale proceeds. The level of the regular quarterly
Net Cash Receipts distribution is consistent with that of the prior quarter.
Assuming property operations meet current projections, the Partnership
<PAGE>
anticipates making regular quarterly distributions from the Partnership's
continuing property operations and from any cash reserves above an amount
necessary to protect against unforeseen events. Including the April 1996
distribution, Limited Partners have received distributions of Net Cash Receipts
totaling $255.50 and Net Cash Proceeds totaling $189.50 per $1,000 Interest, as
well as certain tax benefits. In light of results to date and current market
conditions, the General Partner does not anticipate that investors will recover
all of their original investment.
In February 1996, the Partnership sold the 101 Marietta Tower office complex
for a sales price of $26,000,000. The purchaser acquired the property subject
to the existing $17,353,151 first mortgage loan and the Partnership received
the net proceeds of approximately $8,181,000. See Notes 4 and 5 of Notes to
Financial Statements for additional information.
Each of the Partnership's properties is owned through the use of third-party
mortgage loan financing and, therefore, the Partnership is subject to the
financial obligations required by such loans. As a result of the General
Partner's efforts to modify and refinance these loans, the Partnership has no
third party financing which matures prior to 1998.
Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate
investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs
which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices,
depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation
can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead
to increased rental revenues and real estate values.
