Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Partnership's annual 1995 audited consolidated financial statements
within Form 10-K.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of
financial position as of August 31, 1996 and the results of operations for the
three and nine months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, and cash flows for the
nine months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, and the statement of partners'
capital (deficit) for the nine months ended August 31, 1996. Results of
operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
Certain balances in the 1995 consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 1996 presentation.
No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1995, and no
material contingencies exist which would require disclosure in this interim
report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10- 01, Paragraph (a)(5).
Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Since the full amount of units offered was not sold, insufficient funds were
raised to meet the Partnership's commitments with respect to the acquisition
and lease-up of the properties. In order to meet these commitments, the
General Partners have postponed reimbursement of certain fees and expenses.
Cash flow from operations is being utilized to service the mortgage debt
secured by Crosswest Office Center ("Crosswest"). Pursuant to the terms of the
mortgage loan, cash flow in excess of debt service is held in escrow to fund
future leasing and capital obligations. As a result, cash distributions are
not currently being paid to investors and no further cash distributions will be
made until the Partnership is generating sufficient cash flow in excess of
these requirements.
The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents at August 31, 1996 of $1,229,307,
compared with $859,541 at November 30, 1995. The increase is primarily
attributable to net cash from operating activities exceeding debt service and
additions to real estate. At August 31, 1996, the Partnership also had a
restricted cash balance of $837,182 compared with $769,775 at November 30,
1995. The restricted cash balance at August 31, 1996 consisted of $162,327
reserved to fund real estate taxes at Crosswest, $634,805 representing the
building lockbox escrow and security deposits of $40,050. The Partnership's
cash balance, along with funds generated by operating activities, are expected
to provide sufficient liquidity to enable the Partnership to meet its operating
expenses.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $345,446 at August 31, 1996
compared to $423,101 at November 30, 1995. The decrease is primarily
attributable to lower prepaid rents and the timing of payments and required
accruals.
As previously reported, the local municipality approved the General Partners'
request to expand the property's leasable space by approximately 6,500 square
feet by converting an existing first-floor storage area to usable office space.
In anticipation of leasing such space, first-floor renovations commenced during
October 1996. The costs of the renovation will be funded out of Partnership
cash reserves. The General Partners believe that these renovations will
enhance the value of the property.
At August 31, 1996 the Property remained 100% leased versus 99% a year earlier.
Results of Operations
- ----------------------
Partnership operations resulted in a net loss of $63,929 and $144,238,
including depreciation and amortization, for the three and nine months ended
August 31, 1996, respectively, compared with net income of $661 and a net loss
of $148,516 for the three and nine months ended August 31, 1995, respectively.
The change from net income to net loss for the three-month period is primarily
due to higher property operating expenses and lower rental income.
Rental income totaled $680,627 and $2,009,917 for the three and nine months
ended August 31, 1996, respectively, compared with $698,272 and $1,936,428 for
the three and nine months ended August 31, 1995, respectively. The higher
rental income for the nine-month period is largely due to an increase in base
rent resulting from higher occupancy and lease renewals. The lower rental
income for the three-month period is mainly due to the timing of escalation
receipts. Interest income totaled $23,989 and $61,486 for the three and nine
months ended August 31, 1996 compared with $14,432 and $38,494 for the
comparable periods in 1995. The increases reflect the Partnership's higher
average cash balance for the 1996 periods.
Property operating expenses totaled $352,853 and $961,668 for the three and
nine months ended August 31, 1996, respectively, compared with $314,332 and
$897,533 for the comparable periods in 1995. The increases are primarily due
to higher local municipal taxes and cleaning costs. General and administrative
expenses totaled $39,538 and $117,755 for the three and nine months ended
August 31, 1996, compared with $23,515 and $104,207 for the comparable periods
in 1995. The increases are largely due to higher legal costs, partnership
accounting, tax reporting and administrative costs.
