Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - March 31, 1999
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Interim financial statements
Our independent accountants have not audited the accompanying financial
statements of Boddie-Noell Properties, Inc., except for the balance sheet at
December 31, 1998. We derived the amounts in the balance sheet at December 31,
1998, from the financial statements included in our 1998 Annual Report on Form
10-K. We believe that we have included all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
and results of operations for the periods presented.
We have condensed or omitted certain notes and other information from the
interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
You should read these financial statements in conjunction with our 1998 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Note 2. Segment Reporting
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 131,
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Statement
131 uses a management approach to report financial and descriptive information
about a company's operating segments. Operating segments are revenue-producing
components for which separate financial information is produced internally for
the company's management. Under this definition, we operated, for all periods
presented, as a single segment (apartment operations).
Note 3. Chason Ridge Apartments
Effective January 1, 1999, we acquired Chason Ridge Apartments for a total
acquisition cost of approximately $12.5 million, including cash payments
totaling approximately $1.8 million.
Note 4. Notes payable
We funded cash payments for the acquisition of Chason Ridge with draws from our
line of credit totaling $1.75 million.
In conjunction with the acquisition of Chason Ridge Apartments, we assumed a
HUD-insured loan in the amount of $9.7 million, payable in monthly installments
of $72,000 including principal and interest at 8.5%. In addition, the note
provides for payment of mortgage insurance with a premium of 0.5% of the loan
balance. A deed of trust on and assignment of rents of Chason Ridge Apartments
secure the loan. The interest rate on this loan exceeds current market rates,
and the note may not be prepaid until January 2005. Accordingly, the seller gave
a $1.0 million credit for defeasance of above-market interest, which we will
apply to reduce recorded interest expense monthly through 2004.
In February 1999, The Villages of Chapel Hill Limited Partnership reduced the
outstanding principal balance of its note payable to us to $625,000. We applied
the $1.9 million proceeds to reduce our variable-rate note payable to a bank to
$625,000.

granted in 1994 (exercise price $12.50), 1997 (exercise price $12.25), and June
1998 (exercise price $13.125) because they were antidilutive at March 31, 1999.
Note 5. Subsequent events
On April 20, 1999, we declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.31 per
share, which we will pay on May 18, 1999, to shareholders of record on May 3,
1999.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of federal securities law. You can identify such statements by the use
of forward-looking terminology, such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate,"
"estimate," "continue" or other similar words. These statements discuss future
expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial
condition or state other "forward-looking" information. Although we believe that
our plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that we will
achieve our plans, intentions or expectations. Such statements are subject to
various risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from
those currently anticipated due to a number of factors identified in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1998. You should read the
following discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Company Profile
Boddie-Noell Properties, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed real
estate investment trust that owns and operates apartment communities in North
Carolina and Virginia. We currently own and operate 15 apartment communities
containing 3,440 units and have the right to acquire one additional apartment
community containing 108 units. We also own 47 restaurant properties, which we
lease to a third party under a master lease on a triple-net basis. We manage
four other apartment communities and one shopping center through an
unconsolidated subsidiary. Our executive offices are located at 3850 One First
Union Center, Charlotte, North Carolina 28202-6032, telephone 704/944-0100.
We are structured as an UPREIT, or umbrella partnership real estate
investment trust. The company is the sole general partner and owns a controlling
interest in Boddie-Noell Properties Limited Partnership, or the "Operating
Partnership," through which we conduct all of our operations.
Overview
This discussion analyzes our operations for the first quarter of 1999
compared to the first quarter of 1998. In reading this discussion, it may help
if you keep certain factors in mind:
o Throughout the first quarter of 1998, we owned and operated nine apartment
communities containing 2,208 units. Throughout the first quarter of 1999,
we owned and operated 15 apartment communities containing 3,440 units.
o During the period June 1 through September 9, 1998, we acquired five
apartment communities containing 980 units. We issued Operating Partnership
units in conjunction with these acquisitions. You should read our annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, for a detailed
discussion of these acquisitions and related financing transactions.
o Effective January 1, 1999, we acquired one additional apartment community
containing 252 units.

Results of Operations
Revenues
Total revenue for the first quarter of 1999 was $8.4 million, a 41.3%
increase over the first quarter of 1998. We have two principal sources of
revenue: apartment rental income and restaurant rental income. The increase in
total revenue was attributable to a significant increase in apartment rental
income.
Apartment rental income for the first quarter of 1999 was $7.1 million, a
54.7% increase over the first quarter of 1998. This increase was principally due
to the acquisition of six apartment communities during 1998 and the first
quarter of 1999. For the first quarter of 1999, overall economic occupancy
averaged 94.6%, compared to 94.3% in the first quarter of 1998. For the first
quarter of 1999, average monthly revenue per occupied unit decreased slightly to
$729, compared to $736 in the first quarter of 1998.
Rental income for apartment communities we owned throughout the first
quarter of both 1999 and 1998 totaled $4.6 million, unchanged compared to the
first quarter of 1998. For this "same-store" comparison, average economic
occupancy increased by 0.9% to 95.2%, while average monthly revenue per occupied
unit decreased by 0.5% to $732.
Summary amounts for our apartment communities' occupancy and revenue per
occupied unit for the first quarter of 1999 follow:

(6) Acquired June 1998.
For the first quarters of both 1999 and 1998, restaurant rental income was
the minimum rent. Restaurant rental income is the greater of the minimum rent of
$4.5 million per year or 9.875% of food sales. "Same store" sales at our
restaurant properties decreased by 3.0% compared to the first quarter of 1998.
We have agreed to sell three restaurants to Boddie-Noell Enterprises, the
lessee, under the non-economic clause of the restaurant master lease. Following
the sale of these properties in the second quarter of 1999, we expect that
minimum rent will be approximately $4.3 million in 1999 and $4.2 million per
year thereafter. We expect to receive approximately $2 million of proceeds from
these property sales, which we will apply to reduce the line of credit secured
by them. We do not expect the sale of these properties to have a material effect
on our operating results.
Expenses
Total expense for the first quarter of 1999 was $7.3 million, an increase
of 58.0% over the first quarter of 1998. Apartment operations expense was $2.3
million for the first quarter of 1999, an increase of 59.4% over the first
quarter of 1998. These increases are primarily attributable to the acquisition
of six apartment communities during 1998 and the first quarter of 1999.
Apartment operations expense was 32.4% of related rental income in the
first quarter of 1999, compared to 31.5% in the first quarter of 1998. Apartment
operating expenses were in line with management's expectation. The increase in
apartment operations expense as a percent of related revenue is attributable to
a combination of factors, including timing of certain expenses at certain
properties, the mix of properties, and start up expenses at the newly acquired
properties.
Apartment operations expense for apartment communities we owned throughout
the first quarter of both 1999 and 1998 totaled $1.4 million, unchanged compared
to the first quarter of 1998. For this "same-store" comparison, apartment
operations expense was 31.5% of related rental income in the first quarter of
1999.
11
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for restaurant properties are insignificant because the
restaurant properties' triple-net lease arrangement requires the lessee to pay
virtually all of the expenses associated with the restaurant properties.
The 65.6% increase in depreciation and amortization expense is
attributable to the addition of apartment communities.
Administrative costs increased by 46.6% for the first quarter of 1999
compared to the first quarter of 1998. The increase in administrative costs is
generally attributable to additional corporate level staff and overhead costs
resulting from the addition of six apartment communities. We expect that
administrative costs will continue to increase as and when we acquire additional
apartment communities. In addition, we incurred approximately $40,000 legal
expense in the first quarter of 1999 for preparation of our shareholder rights
plan.
Interest expense was $2.7 million in the first quarter of 1999, an
increase of 54.1% over the first quarter of 1998, attributable to long-term debt
issued in conjunction with apartment acquisitions. Weighted average interest
rates were 7.1% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 7.6% in the first
quarter of 1998.
Net income
Net income available to common shareholders was $810,000 in the first
quarter of 1999 compared to $1.0 million in the first quarter of 1998. This
variance reflects the impact of expanded apartment operations and an increase in
the minority interest in the Operating Partnership. While funds from operations
of the Operating Partnership increased by $480,000, or 20.2%, non-cash charges
for depreciation and amortization expense increased by $743,000. In addition,
the minority interest in the net income of the Operating Partnership increased
to 20.9% for the first quarter of 1999 compared to 14.0% for the first quarter
of 1998.
Funds from Operations
Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as "net income (computed in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (losses) from debt
restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and
after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures."
We define funds available for distribution as funds from operations plus
non-cash expense for amortization of loan costs, less scheduled principal
payments on our debt and less recurring capital expenditures.
We consider funds from operations and funds available for distribution to
be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions and measuring the
operating performance of an equity REIT because, together with net income and
cash flows, funds from operations and funds available for distribution provide
investors with additional measures to evaluate the ability of the REIT to incur
and service debt and to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures. Funds
from operations and funds available for distribution do not represent net income
or cash flows from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting
principles. You should not consider funds from operations or funds available for
distribution:
12
<PAGE>
o to be alternatives to net income as reliable measures of our operating
performance, or
o to be alternatives to cash flows as measures of liquidity.
Funds from operations and funds available for distribution do not measure
whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including
principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to shareholders.
Funds from operations and funds available for distribution do not represent cash
flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by generally
accepted accounting principles. Further, funds from operations and funds
available for distribution as disclosed by other REITs may not be comparable to
our calculation of funds from operations or funds available for distribution.
We calculated funds from operations as follows (all amounts in thousands):

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Capital Resources
During the first quarter of 1999, we issued 13,621 shares of our common
stock under our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan for cash proceeds
totaling $153,000.
Effective January 1, 1999, we acquired Chason Ridge Apartments, a 252-unit
community located in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The total acquisition cost
was approximately $12.5 million, including cash payments totaling approximately
$1.8 million. We funded cash payments for the acquisition of Chason Ridge with
draws from our line of credit totaling $1.75 million.
In conjunction with the acquisition of Chason Ridge Apartments, we assumed
a HUD-insured loan in the amount of $9.7 million, payable in monthly
installments of $72,000 including principal and interest at 8.5%. In addition,
the note provides for payment of mortgage insurance with a premium of 0.5% of
the loan balance. A deed of trust on and assignment of rents of Chason Ridge
Apartments secure the loan. The interest rate on this loan exceeds current
market rates, and the note may not be prepaid until January 2005. Accordingly,
the seller gave a $1.0 million credit for defeasance of above-market interest,
which we will apply to reduce recorded interest expense monthly through 2004. We
estimate the effective interest rate on this note to be approximately 7.3%.
In February 1999, The Villages of Chapel Hill Limited Partnership reduced
the outstanding principal balance of its note payable to us to $625,000. We
applied the $1.9 million proceeds to reduce our variable-rate note payable to a
bank to $625,000.
At March 31, 1999, total long-term debt was $149.9 million, including
$129.5 million of notes payable at fixed interest rates ranging from 6.345% to
8.55%, and $20.4 million at variable
14
<PAGE>
rates indexed on 30-day LIBOR rates. The weighted average interest rate on debt
outstanding was 7.1% at March 31, 1999, compared to 7.2% at December 31, 1998,
and 7.5% at March 31, 1998. A 1% increase in variable interest rates would
increase our annual interest expense by approximately $207,000, while a 1%
decrease in variable interest rates would decrease our annual interest expense
by approximately $207,000.
Cash flows and liquidity
Net cash flows from operating activities for the first quarter of 1999
were $3.1 million, compared to $2.3 million for the first quarter of 1998,
reflecting our growth in apartment operations. Investing and financing
activities focused primarily on apartment acquisitions and improvements, along
with payments of dividends and distributions.
We continue to produce sufficient cash flow to fund our regular dividend.
We have announced that the company will pay a regular quarterly dividend of
$0.31 per share on May 18, 1999, to shareholders of record on May 3, 1999.
We capitalize our expenditures relating to acquiring new assets,
materially enhancing the value of existing assets, or substantially extending
the useful life of existing assets. All carpet and vinyl replacements are
capitalized. Additions to owned apartment communities were funded from cash
provided by operating activities.
We generally expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through
net cash provided by operations and utilization of credit facilities. We believe
that net cash provided by operations is, and will continue to be, adequate to
meet the REIT operating requirements in both the short- and the long term. We
anticipate funding our future acquisition activities primarily by using
short-term credit facilities as an interim measure, to be replaced by funds from
equity offerings or long-term debt. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity
requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities and repayment of short-term
financing of possible property acquisitions, through long-term secured and
unsecured borrowings and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity
securities. We believe we have sufficient resources to meet our short-term
liquidity requirements.
We do not believe that inflation poses a material risk to the company. The
leases at our apartment properties are short-term in nature. None are longer
than two years. The restaurant properties are leased on a triple-net basis,
which places the risk of rising operating and maintenance costs on the lessee.
Year 2000 Issues
The Year 2000 issue refers to the inability of certain computer systems to
accurately store and use dates after 1999. If not corrected, this could result
in failure of the information technology systems that we use in our business
operations, such as computer programs related to property management, leasing,
financial reporting and employee benefits. In addition, computerized systems and
microprocessors are embedded in a variety of products used in our operations and
properties, such as HVAC controls, thermostats, elevators, alarms, smoke
detectors, sprinklers and phones.

Our remediation plan has three phases:
o Assessment (inventory and testing of computer systems and inquiries
regarding Year 2000 readiness of significant vendors and suppliers);
o Renovation (repairing or replacing non-compliant systems); and
o Validation (testing of repaired or replaced systems).
The following chart shows our progress with respect to our remediation
plan:

With respect to our material third-party relationships, i.e., our utility
providers, our significant vendors and suppliers and our restaurant tenant, we
made written inquiries of their Year 2000 readiness. To date, none have
indicated Year 2000 issues that could materially impact our operations.
The cost of our remediation efforts to date and the estimated cost of our
future remediation efforts are not material.
Based on our assessment of the Year 2000 readiness of our significant
vendors, suppliers and tenant, as well as the status of our remediation plan, we
do not expect Year 2000 issues to have a material impact on the company. As a
result, we have not created, and we do not expect to create, a contingency plan
for Year 2000 failures. Nevertheless, this assessment, which is a
forward-looking statement, depends on the accuracy of the information we have
received from third parties with respect to their Year 2000 readiness.
Various of our disclosures and announcements concerning our Year 2000
programs are intended to constitute "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures" as defined
in the recently enacted Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act. The
Act provides added protection from liability for certain public and private
statements concerning an entity's Year 2000 readiness and the Year 2000
readiness of its products and services. The Act also potentially provides added
protection from liability for certain types of Year 2000 disclosures made after
January 1, 1996, and before the date of enactment of the Act.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which
must be adopted in years
16
<PAGE>
beginning after June 15, 1999. The Statement will require the recognition of all
derivatives on our consolidated balance sheet at fair value. We do not
anticipate that the adoption of this Statement will have a material impact on
our results of operations or financial position.
