FGIC SECURITIES PURCHASE, INC.
(A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF FGIC HOLDINGS, INC.)
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30,1998
(UNAUDITED)
(1) BUSINESS
FGIC Securities Purchase, Inc. ("FGIC-SPI") is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of FGIC Holdings, Inc. (the "Parent") which, in turn, is
wholly-owned by General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital").
FGIC-SPI provides liquidity for certain floating rate municipal
securities whereby FGIC-SPI will, under certain circumstances, purchase
such securities in the event they are tendered by the holders thereof
as permitted under the terms of the respective bond indentures. As of
September 30, 1998, FGIC-SPI had approximately $2.6 billion (par and
interest) of potential obligations under such arrangements. In order to
obtain funds to purchase the securities, FGIC-SPI has entered into
standby loan agreements with GE Capital totaling $4.0 billion at
September 30, 1998, under which GE Capital will be irrevocably
obligated to lend funds as needed for FGIC-SPI to purchase the
securities.
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The interim financial statements of FGIC-SPI in this report reflect all
normal recurring adjustments necessary, in the opinion of management,
for a fair statement of (a) results of operations for nine months
ending September 30, 1998 and 1997, (b) the financial position at
September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and (c) cash flows for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and related notes included in the 1997 audited
financial statements.
Significant accounting policies are as follows:
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair
value. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, FGIC-SPI considers
all highly liquid investments with original maturities of nine months
or less to be cash equivalents.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Fees are paid up-front and in installments. Up-front fees are earned on
a straight-line basis over the life of the liquidity commitment, and
installment fees are earned straight-line over the installment period.
FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts of FGIC-SPI's financial instruments, relating
primarily to short term investments and liquidity fees, approximate
their fair values.
SEC REGISTRATION FEES
SEC registration fees are reimbursable to FGIC-SPI, as a separate item
at the closing, by issuers, as transactions are consummated. Such fees
are deferred when paid, and netted against the related reimbursement as
transactions are consummated. Management evaluates the recoverability
of such deferred fees at each reporting date.
EXPENSES
Direct expenses incurred by the Parent are fully allocated to FGIC-SPI
on a specific identification basis. Employee related expenses are
allocated by affiliates to FGIC-SPI based on the percentage of time
such employees devote to the activities of FGIC-SPI. Management
believes that such allocation method is reasonable. Management believes
that such expenses, as reported in the statement of income, would not
differ materially from what expenses would have been on a stand-alone
basis.
RESERVE FOR LOSSES
It is management's policy to establish a reserve for losses based upon
its estimate of the ultimate aggregate losses relative to its
obligations under the liquidity facility arrangements written. At
September 30, 1998, management does not anticipate any losses relative
to such arrangements.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases, on a stand alone basis, as provided in SFAs No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". These temporary differences relate
principally to accrued state taxes not settled with GE Capital.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(3) INCOME TAXES
Under an intercompany tax-sharing agreement with its parent, FGIC-SPI
is included in the consolidated Federal income tax returns filed by GE
Capital. FGIC-SPI provides for taxes as if it filed a separate tax
return in accordance with SFAS No. 109.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Liquidity fees are received up-front at the inception of the
contract and in installments over the life of the contract.
Up-front fees are earned on a straight-line basis over the life
of the liquidity commitment, and installment fees are earned
straight-line over the installment period. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1998, FGIC-SPI earned liquidity fees of
$5,427,941 compared to $7,525,523 for the nine months ended 1997.
The decrease in earnings is primarily due to a reduction in the
outstanding liquidity facility and the renewal of existing deals
at lower basis points. FGIC-SPI incurred ($43,164) and $632,158
of general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in
general and administrative expenses is primarily due to a credit
recognized for prior years commitment fees payable, waived by GE
Capital. The expenses incurred primarily include fees associated
with establishing the liquidity facilities.
Liquidity fees are received up-front at the inception of the
contract and in installments over the life of the contract.
Up-front fees are earned on a straight-line basis over the life
of the liquidity commitment, and installment fees are earned
straight-line over the installment period. For the third quarter
of 1998, FGIC-SPI earned liquidity fees of $1,782,598 compared to
$1,625,073 for the three months ended September 30, 1997.
FGIC-SPI incurred ($103,348) and $320,905 of general and
administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in general and
administrative expenses is primarily due to a credit recognized
for prior years commitment fees payable, waived by GE Capital.
The expenses incurred primarily include fees associated with
establishing the liquidity facilities.
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being
written using two digit date fields rather than four to define an
applicable year, which could result in system failures or
miscalculations causing disruptions in the operations of FGIC-SPI
and its suppliers and customers. A Year 2000 Project has been
instituted at FGIC-SPI. An initial evaluation of FGIC-SPI current
computer systems, software, suppliers and customers has been
performed, revealing that FGIC-SPI has no real Year 2000 Issue.
While FGIC-SPI believes its Year 2000 Project will adequately
address FGIC-SPI internal Year 2000 issues, the overall risks
associated with Year 2000 Issue remain difficult to accurately
describe and quantify, and there can be no guarantee that the
Year 2000 Issue will not have a material adverse effect on
FGIC-SPI and its operations.
