PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1 - Financial Statements
The unaudited financial statements of Southeast Acquisitions III, L.P.
(the "Partnership") at March 31, 1997 are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Background
The Partnership was formed to acquire, own and realize appreciation in
the following properties by holding them for investment and eventual sale (each
a "Property," collectively the "Properties"): 211 acres of undeveloped land in
Fulton County Georgia; 265 acres of undeveloped land in Henry County, Georgia;
24 acres of undeveloped land near Nashville, Tennessee; 48 acres of undeveloped
land near Fort Myers, Florida; and 51 acres of undeveloped land near Colombia,
South Carolina. There can be no assurance that the Partnership's objectives will
be realized.
Results of Operations
The Partnership had no operations from the date of its formation on
November 4, 1988 until June 1, 1989 when it acquired the first property and sold
6,215 Units of limited partnership interest. During 1989, the Partnership
acquired four additional Properties and sold 6,185 additional units of limited
partnership interest.
The Partnership's activities for the first quarter of 1997 were
primarily focused on attempting to sell certain of the Properties. Revenues for
the first quarter of 1997 consisted of interest income of $3,613 and partnership
transfer fees of $150. Expenses for the first quarter of 1997 consisted of
general and administrative costs of $1,940, management fees of $6,222, real
estate taxes of $8,913 and insurance costs of $127.
The Partnership's activities for fiscal year 1996 were primarily
focused on attempting to sell certain of the Properties. During 1996, the
Partnership sold 11 acres of the Henry County, Georgia property for a gain of
$103,294. Revenues for 1996 consisted of timber revenues of $14,199, interest
income of $12,373 and partnership transfer fees of $1,225. Expenses for 1996
consisted of general and administrative costs of $27,136, management fees of
$24,886, real estate taxes of $35,773 and insurance costs of $508.
The Partnership's activities for fiscal year 1995 were primarily
focused on attempting to sell certain of the Properties. During 1995, the
Partnership sold all 24 acres of the Nashville,
2
<PAGE> 3
Tennessee parcel for a gain of $410,858. Revenues for 1995 consisted of
interest income of $26,706 and Partnership transfer fees of $975. Expenses for
1995 consisted of general and administrative costs of $13,469, management fees
of $24,886, real estate taxes of $36,835 and insurance of $578.
Inflation did not have any material impact on operations during 1996
and it is not expected to materially impact future operations.
The General Partner has the right to sell the Properties without the
consent of the Limited Partners if the net proceeds of the sale will be
sufficient to return the Limited Partners' Capital Contribution plus their 10%
Non-Compounded Cumulative Annual Return. The General Partner believes that the
Partnership's cash reserves will be sufficient to last for an additional three
years, assuming no significant increases in expenses and no funding for the
construction of sewer to the Fulton County Property. However, if the reserves
are exhausted and the partnership is unable to borrow funds, the Partnership may
have to sell some or all of the Properties on unfavorable terms.
The General Partner has no plans to develop the Properties, except for
activities including rezoning, land planning, market surveys and other
activities necessary to prepare the Properties for sale. There can be no
assurance that necessary funds would be available should it be desirable for the
Partnership to improve the Properties to facilitate their sale.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership had cash reserves of $347,333 at March 31, 1997, which
will be used to cover the following estimated annual costs: $16,194 annual
administration fee to the General Partner (1997) only, $10,000 per year for
auditing, accounting, tax, legal and other administrative services, $525 per
year for insurance and $36,000 per year for real estate taxes. In the General
Partner's opinion, the Partnership's reserves will be sufficient for an
additional three years. However, if additional expenses are incurred or if the
Partnership goes forward with the construction to bring sewer to the Fulton
County Property then the reserves may be inadequate to cover the Partnership's
operating expenses. If the reserves are exhausted, the Partnership may have to
dispose of some or all of the Properties or incur indebtedness on unfavorable
terms.
During 1996, appraisals were performed on the Partnership's properties
causing the Partnership to write-down the Columbia, South Carolina property by
$50,560, the Fulton County, Georgia property by $3,622,126 and the Fort Myers,
Florida property by $676,200.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
3
<PAGE> 4
The Partnership is not a direct party to, nor is the Partnership's
property directly the subject of, any material legal proceeding. However, on
November 6, 1992, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania issued an order placing
The Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Fidelity Mutual"), the indirect
parent of the General Partner of the Partnership, into rehabilitation under the
control and authority of the Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner pursuant to the
provisions of the Pennsylvania Insurance Department Act, 40 P.S. ss.221.1 et
seq. The Partnership is not a direct party to the order, but ownership of the
stock of (and consequently control of) the General Partner is vested in the
Insurance Commissioner pursuant to the Order.
Item 2 - Changes in Securities
There was no change in the partnership's securities during the first
quarter of 1997.
Item 3 - Defaults Upon Senior Securities
There was no default in the payment of principal, interest, a sinking
or purchase fund installment or any other default with respect to any
indebtedness of the Partnership. The Partnership has issued no preferred stock;
accordingly, there has been no arrearages or delinquencies with respect to any
such preferred stock.
Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matters were submitted to the Partners for a vote during the first
quarter of 1997.
