NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. GENERAL
In the opinion of the management of IDS Life, the accompanying
unaudited financial statements for IDS Life Account RE (the "Account")
contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly its balance sheets as
of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996; statements of operations for
the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996; and the statements of
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. These
statements are condensed and therefore do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statement disclosure. The statements
should be read in conjunction with the Account's financial statements
as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the notes thereto
contained in the Account's prospectus dated April 30, 1997. The
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
2. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures - Summary Information
Summary information for the Account of its investments in
unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996 is as follows:
For the three months ended
March 31
1997 1996
Account's share of net
investment income from
unconsolidated joint ventures $ 598,261 $ 506,771
Total net investment income of
unconsolidated joint ventures $ 7,276,612 $ 6,653,028
Total income of unconsolidated
joint ventures $11,293,000 $11,391,000
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to the
Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 -
Net assets increased from $33,545,476 at December 31, 1996 to $33,646,800 at
March 31, 1997. During this same time period, the accumulation unit value
increased from $.98 to $1.00. The Account experienced net terminations
amounting to $451,884 for the three months ended March 31,1997 compared to
net terminations of $116,260 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The net
terminations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 included approximately
$1,100,000 for accumulation units purchased by IDS Life, which have been used
to pay for contract surrenders, as discussed more fully below. In the three
months endeded March 31, 1997, IDS Life had not purchased any accumulation
units.
Recorded net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $562,889
compared to $343,147 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
Interest income represents income earned in 1997 on the Account's investment in
short-term securities. Interest generated from short-term investments of
$138,137 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 is due primarily to an
increase in short term investments. The increase in short term investments is
due primarily to cash received as a result of (i) the payoff of the
Riverpoint mortgage loan receivable in December 1996 and (ii) the sale of the
West Springfield apartments in September 1996.
Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 primarily represented
income earned on the Account's investment in the participation in a mortgage
loan (Riverpoint Shopping Center). For the three months ended March 31, 1996,
the Account recognized net unrealized depreciation of participation in mortgage
loan of $127,844 as a result of lower effective rents achieved upon
releasing the center.
For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Account's recorded equity in
earnings of its unconsolidated joint ventures (N/S Associates, Monmouth
Associates and 1225 Connecticut) was $598,261, compared to $506,771 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996. The increase is due primarily to
(i) an increase in interest income earned by Monmouth Associates. The increase
in earnings was partially offset by lower rental income achieved at Southridge
and Northridge Malls due to lower effective rents.
In addition, the Account recorded rental income of $0 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 from its wholly-owned real estate investment, West
Springfield Terrace Apartments, compared to $641,538 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996, due to the sale of its wholly-owned real estate investment in
September 1996. Expenses related to the wholly-owned real estate investment
totaled $0 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to $442,361 for
the corresponding period in 1996.
Northridge Mall continues to be adversely affected by the perception that it is
an unsafe place to shop. This perception has resulted in declining sales and
occupancy over a three-year period. Compounding the problem of declining sales
are the high operating costs for tenants at the mall. Occupancy has also been
affected by tenant bankruptcies over the past years. As of March 31, 1997,
occupancy of the mall shops was approximately 73%, including temporary tenants
under short term leases.
To counter the negative perception of Northridge Mall, N/S Associates has
implemented certain capital improvements and operational programs to improve
the shopping center's safety and appearance, as well as instituted certain
marketing and public relation efforts to enhance its image. Certain recent
positive sales trends appear to indicate a modest improvement; however,
elimination of the negative perception is expected to take some time. In
addition, N/S Associates is seeking to increase occupancy at the shopping
center by aggressively marketing space for new and renewal tenants through
leasing incentives, as well as continuing to cooperate with existing tenants
who need short-term rent reductions in order to retain occupancy of their
space. Part of the leasing strategy includes targeting certain
well-recognized retailers as a group that would become tenants at the shopping
center. It is expected that the draw of this group of tenants would help the
shopping center gain leasing momentum and aid in future leasing efforts.
During the first quarter of 1997 occupancy increased 19%. In addition,
comparable sales for the year have also increased approximately 3%. As of
March 31, 1997, occupancy of Southridge Mall which is owned by N/S Associates
was approximately 95%, including temporary tenants under short-term leases.
The Account paid asset management and mortality expense risk fees of $204,146
and $263,223 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to the Three Months Ended
March 31, 1996 -
At March 31, 1997, the Account had cash of approximately $166,000 as compared
to approximately $103,000 at December 31, 1996. The Account had experienced net
contract terminations in 14 consecutive quarters with net sales (including
accumulation units purchased by IDS Life) in three of the last four quarters.
The liquidity requirements of the Account have generally been met by funds
provided from the Account's short-term investments, cash distributions from
unconsolidated joint ventures, operating cash flow, interest income, proceeds
from the sale of West Springfield Terrace apartments, the loan repayment from
Riverpoint Center, proceeds from sales of contracts, and borrowings under the
line of credit from IDS Life and purchases of accumulation units by IDS Life
discussed below. The primary uses of funds currently are expected to be for
asset management and mortality and expense risk fees and payments for contract
terminations and redemption units held by IDS Life.
Effective May 1, 1995, new contract sales of the Account were discontinued.
Additional purchase payments continue to be accepted for existing contracts in
amounts specified in the Account's prospectus, whether by means of the
previously established bank authorizations or otherwise. Existing contracts
also continue to be serviced and surrender requests will be honored.
IDS Life has purchased accumulation units in order to maintain the Account and
its liquidity. IDS Life made these payments so that no contract holder would be
disadvantaged because sales of new contracts have been discontinued. The
initial payments for accumulation units that IDS Life made into the Account
were used to pay off the amount that the Account had borrowed under its
revolving line of credit. As of March 31, 1997, IDS Life had purchased
approximately 26,700,000 accumulation units.
By purchasing accumulation units, IDS Life has an ownership interest in the
Account. Since IDS Life does not purchase a contract, it is not subject to
surrender charges. However, IDS Life, as holder of accumulation units,
participates in the increase or decrease in the value of the Account's
investments just as other owners of accumulation units do. IDS Life may
realize a gain or loss on its accumulation units when redeemed.
IDS Life currently expects to hold the accumulation units it purchases until
the surrender of all outstanding contracts or until the Account's liquidity
improves (through, for example, one or more sales of real estate related
investments) thereby permitting the Account to satisfy its anticipated contract
obligations. Because IDS Life may purchase a significant amount of
accumulation units, IDS Life may be subject to certain conflicts of interest it
would not otherwise have if it had not purchased such accumulation units,
including, among other things, a conflict in approving periodic valuations of
real estate investments made by the Investment Adviser.
Since the Account has experienced substantial net contract terminations over
the past several years, the Account does not intend to acquire additional real
estate related investments. During 1996, the Account liquidated two real estate
related investments. Further, the Account intends to liquidate the real estate
related investments that it currently holds when it becomes advantageous or
necessary to do so. To the extent funds of the Account are not used to pay
obligations of the Account, including those under existing contracts, or the
redemption of accumulation units purchased by IDS Life, such funds will be
invested in short-term debt instruments and possibly intermediate-term bonds
with maturities of up to five years.
Through March 31, 1997, Monmouth Associates had funded approximately
$23,750,000 of the renovation loan (which excludes $1.3 million of construction
loan interest) for Monmouth Mall. Fundings of principal on the loan have been
made from cash reserves held by Monmouth Associates, cash flow from interest
and ground rent payments received from the borrower/lessee and capital
contributions made to Monmouth Associates by its partners pro rata based upon
their respective interests. The aggregate amount of capital contributions to
finance the loan is approximately $9,830,000. The Account's share of these
capital contributions is approximately $685,000. The aggregate amount of the
renovation loan, including accrued and deferred interest of approximately
$1,300,000, is currently expected to be approximately $26,989,000. Remaining
fundings for the renovation loan are expected to be made from cash flow and
funds currently held by Monmouth Associates. Monmouth Associates may also be
required to make certain additional loans to pay a portion of the costs of
certain tenant improvements or other ordinary capital expenditures. In
addition, Monmouth Associates may provide additional financing to the
borrower/lessee in order to pay costs to be incurred in connection with the
replacement of a department store tenant at Monmouth Mall. However, it is not
currently expected that this would occur during 1997.
The renovation is nearing completion with tenant improvement work for one of
the larger tenants and retainage work remaining. The occupancy of mall shops
and outparcel space at the shopping center as of March 31, 1997 was
approximately 84%. However, the mall shops and outparcel space are
approximately 86% leased. Leasing and occupancy at the shopping center have
been adversely affected by tenant bankruptcies occurring over the past several
years.
N/S Associates currently expects that it will incur approximately $2,090,000
in 1997 for tenant improvement, asbestos removal and other capital items at
Northridge and Southridge Malls. Actual amounts expended in 1997 may vary
depending on a number of factors, including actual leasing activity, results
of property operations, liquidity considerations and market conditions over the
course of the year. N/S Associates undertakes asbestos removal from time to
time at portions of the Northridge and Southridge Malls as tenant spaces are
vacated and prior to occupancy by new tenants. The cost of tenant
improvements, asbestos removal and other capital items generally will be
provided out of cash flows from the properties. N/S Associates expended
approximately $2,236,000 for tenant improvements, asbestos removal and other
capital projects in 1996.
At March 31, 1997, real property investments (through two unconsolidated joint
ventures, N/S Associates and 1225 Connecticut), land sale-leaseback investments
(through an unconsolidated joint venture, Monmouth Associates) and short-term
investments represented 42.5 percent, 25.7 percent and 31.3 percent
of total assets, respectively. At March 31, 1996, real property investments,
mortgage loan and land sale-leaseback investments and short-term investments
represented 71 percent, 28 percent and 2 percent of total assets, respectively.
