Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
(1) Liquidity
As of September 30, 1997, Registrant had cash of
$15,741. Such funds are expected to be used to pay liabilities of
Registrant, and to fund cash deficits of the properties. Cash
generated from operations is used primarily to fund operating expenses
and debt service. If cash flow proves to be insufficient, the
Registrant will attempt to negotiate loan modifications with the
various lenders in order to remain current on all obligations. The
Registrant is not aware of any additional sources of liquidity.
As of September 30, 1997, Registrant had
restricted cash of $165,959 consisting primarily of funds held as
security deposits, replacement reserves and escrows for taxes and
insurance. As a consequence of the restrictions as to use, Registrant
does not deem these funds to be a source of liquidity.
In recent years the Registrant has realized
significant losses, including the foreclosure of one property, due to
the properties' inability to generate sufficient cash flow to pay
their operating expenses and debt service. At the present time, with
the exception of the Magazine Place, where the Registrant does not
receive any of the distributable cash, the Registrant has feasible
loan modifications in place on all of its properties. However, in
each of these cases, the mortgages are basically "cash-flow"
mortgages, requiring all available cash after payment of operating
expenses to be paid to the first mortgage holder. Therefore, it is
unlikely that any cash will be available to the Registrant to pay its
general and administrative expenses. See Accountant's Report with
respect to financial statements included in the Registrant's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
It is the Registrant's intention to continue to
hold the properties until they can no longer meet the debt service
requirements and the properties are foreclosed, or the market value of
the properties increases to a point where they can be sold at a price
which is sufficient to repay the underlying indebtedness (principal
plus accrued interest).
(2) Capital Resources
Due to the relatively recent rehabilitations of
the properties, any capital expenditures needed are generally
replacement items and are funded out of cash from operations or
replacement reserves, if any. The Registrant is not aware of any
factors which would cause historical capital expenditures levels not
to be indicative of capital requirements in the future and accordingly
does not believe that it will have to commit material resources to
capital investment in the foreseeable future. The first mortgage
holder for Lincoln Court, Green Street Apartments and Loewy Building,
has agreed that, in the event a need for capital expenditures arises
with respect to either property, it will fund capital expenditures at
terms similar to the first mortgage. The mortgagee did not fund any
capital expenditures during the third quarter of 1997.
(3) Results of Operations
During the third quarter of 1997, Registrant
incurred a net loss of $216,850 ($15.35 per limited partnership unit)
compared to a net loss of $280,510 ($19.86 per limited partnership
unit) for the same period in 1996. For the first nine months of 1997,
the Registrant incurred a net loss of $700,627 ($49.61 per limited
partnership unit) compared to a net loss of $751,138 ($53.19 per
limited partnership unit) for the same period in 1996.
Rental income increased $9,388 from $296,540 in
the third quarter of 1996 to $305,928 in the same period in 1997. The
increase from the third quarter of 1996 to the same period in 1997 is
the result of an increase in rental income at The Loewy Building due
to an increase in the average rental rates, an increase at 18th and
Green due to an increase in the average occupancy (94% to 97%) and an
increase at Lincoln Court due to an increase in the average occupancy
(78% to 86%) and in the average rental rates.
Rental income decreased $22,533 from $946,289 for
the first nine months of 1996 to $923,756 in the same period in 1997.
The decrease from the first nine months of 1996 to the same period in
1997 is the result of a decrease in rental income at The Loewy
Building due to a one-time recognition of rental income in the first
quarter of 1996 (not repeated in 1997) that related to a prior period
partially offset by an increase at 18th and Green due to an increase
in the average occupancy (92% to 93%) and an increase at Lincoln Court
due to an increase in the average rental rates.
Expense for rental operations decreased by $28,563
from $145,579 in the third quarter of 1996 to $117,016 in the same
period in 1997. The decrease from the third quarter of 1996 to the
same period in 1997 is mainly the result of a decrease in leasing fees
at The Loewy Building partially offset by an increase in management
fees expense at Lincoln Court due to an increase in rental income. At
the Loewy Building, leasing fees decreased due to commissions relating
to a lease extension in the second quarter of 1996 that were not
repeated in 1997.
Expense for rental operations and decreased by
$81,698 from $521,600 for the first nine months of 1996 to $439,902 in
the same period in 1997. The decrease from the first nine months of
1996 to the same period in 1997 is mainly the result of a decrease in
real estate taxes expense at Lincoln Court and a decrease in leasing
fees and management fees expense at The Loewy Building. Real estate
taxes expense at Lincoln Court decreased due to a one-time payment in
the second quarter of 1996 of penalties for unpaid real estate taxes
that increased tax expense over typical levels of tax expense. At the
Loewy Building, leasing fees decreased due to commissions relating to
a lease extension in the second quarter of 1996 that was not repeated
in 1997 and management fees expense decreased due to a decrease in
rental income.
Interest expense decreased by $60,254 from
$296,176 in the third quarter of 1996 to $235,922 in the same period
in 1997 and decreased $41,857 from $748,006 for the first nine months
of 1996 to $706,149 in the same period in 1997. The decreases are due
to the accrual of additional interest in the third quarter of 1996
that should have been accrued in prior years which did not recur in
1997.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased
$18,413 from $118,938 in the third quarter of 1996 to $137,351 in the
same period in 1997 and increased $32,504 from $354,360 for the first
nine months of 1996 to $386,864 in the same period in 1997. The
increases are the result of an increase in amortization expense at the
Loewy Building due to the amortization of leasing fees and an increase
in amortization expense at Lincoln Court due to the amortization of
loan fees incurred in connection with the refinancing in June 1996.
Losses incurred during the quarter at the
Registrant's properties amounted to $169,000, compared to a loss of
approximately $250,000 for the same period in 1996. For the first
nine months of 1997 the Registrant's properties recognized a loss of
$561,000 compared to approximately $632,000 for the same period in
1996.
In the third quarter of 1997, Registrant incurred
a loss of $62,000 at Lincoln Court including $40,000 of depreciation
and amortization expense, compared to a loss of $144,000 in the third
quarter of 1996, including $35,000 of depreciation and amortization
expense. The decrease in the loss from the third quarter of 1996 to
the same period in 1997 is due to an increase in rental income
resulting from an increase in the average rental rates and the average
occupancy (78% to 86%) and a decrease in interest expense partially
offset by an increase in management fee expense. Interest expense
decreased due to the accrual of additional interest in the third
quarter of 1996 that should have been accrued in prior years and
management fees expense increased due to the increase in rental
income.
For the first nine months of 1997, Registrant
incurred a loss of $228,000 at Lincoln Court including $120,000 of
depreciation and amortization expense, compared to a loss of $307,000
for the same period in 1996, including $104,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense. The decrease in the loss from the first nine
months of 1996 to the same period in 1997 is the result of an increase
in rental income due to an increase in the average rental rates and a
decrease in real estate taxes and interest expense partially offset by
an increase in amortization expense. Real estate taxes expense
decreased due to the payment in the second quarter of 1996 of
penalties for unpaid real estate taxes and interest expense decreased
due to the accrual of additional interest in the third quarter of 1996
that should have been accrued in prior years. Amortization expense
increased due to the amortization of loan fees incurred in connection
with the refinancing in June 1996.
In the third quarter of 1997, Registrant incurred
a loss of $29,000 at the Green Street Apartments, including $15,000 of
depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $31,000 including $15,000
of depreciation expense in the third quarter of 1996 and for the first
nine months of 1997, Registrant incurred a loss of $107,000 including
$44,000 of depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $109,000 for
the same period in 1996, including $44,000 of depreciation expense.
The decrease in the loss for both the quarter and the first nine
months of 1996 to the same periods in 1997 is the result of an
increase in rental income due to increases in the average occupancy
(94% to 97% in the third quarter and 92% to 93% for the first nine
months).
In the third quarter of 1997, Registrant incurred
a loss of $78,000 at the Loewy Building, including $79,000 of
depreciation and amortization expense, compared to a loss of $75,000
including $65,000 of depreciation expense in the third quarter of
1996. The increased loss is the result of an increase in amortization
expense due to the amortization of leasing fees partially offset by a
decrease in commissions expense due to a commission paid in 1996 with
respect to a lease extension in the second quarter of that year which
was not repeated in 1997 and an increase in rental income due to an
increase in average rental rates.
For the first nine months of 1997, Registrant
incurred a loss of $226,000 at the Loewy Building including $212,000
of depreciation and amortization expense, compared to a loss of
$216,000 for the same period in 1996, including $195,000 of
depreciation expense. The increased loss from the first nine months
of 1996 to the same period in 1997 is the result of a decrease in
rental income due to the recognition of rental income in the first
quarter of 1996 (and not repeated in 1997) that related to a prior
period and was not previously accrued, combined with an increase in
amortization expense due to the amortization of leasing fees. The
increases are partially offset by a decrease in commissions expense
due to a lease extension with the tenant who leases 34% of the
building in the second quarter of 1996 and a decrease in management
fees expense due to the decrease in rental income.
Summary of Minority Interests
In the third quarter of 1997, the Registrant
incurred a loss of $1,000 at Magazine Place compared to income of
$15,000 in the third quarter of 1996. For the first nine months of
1997 the Registrant recognized income of $3,000 compared to income of
$20,000 for the same period in 1996. The Registrant accounts for this
investment on the equity method. The decrease is due to lower overall
occupancy of the property combined with an overall increase in
operating expenses.
