NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1997 AND 1996
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Registrant, without audit, for filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to the rules and regulations of said commission. The
financial information presented herein, while not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year, reflects adjustments comprising normal
recurring accruals which in the opinion of the Registrant are necessary for
the fair statement of the results for the periods indicated. This financial
information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report for the two years in
the period ended October 31, 1996.
For comparative purposes, certain 1996 amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the presentation adopted in 1997.
<PAGE>
Part I - Item 2 Management Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Financial Condition
The Company obtained a $250,000 unsecured line of credit from PNC Bank, N.A.;
however, no amounts have been drawn on the line of credit. Over $1.5 million
has been borrowed during 1997 to fund construction, while approximately $.5
million of loans payable have been repaid. Cash was also used to fund
repayment of general unsecured debt of $997,931.
Land development for and construction of an office building continued during
the quarter. Such building shall be leased to the real estate sales company
which is responsible for all of the Company's residential sales.
Inventory at the end of the third quarter of 1997 consisted of thirteen
single family homes in various stages of construction including one model
home, four homes under agreement of sale, and eight homes available for sale.
Also included in inventory are thirty-four multi-family homes, in various
stages of construction, including three model homes, ten homes under
agreement of sale and twenty-one homes available for sale.
Results of Operations for Nine Month Periods
In 1997, rental income decreased from the prior year's period by $171,417 due
to the sale of townhouse units. Since ten of these townhouse units were sold
in 1997 and 32 were sold in 1996, gross revenue from townhouse unit sales
decreased in 1997 by $1,590,196. Management believes that decreased townhouse
sales are a result of increased competition and slightly unfavorable market
conditions. Additionally, management believes that due to the availability of
its newly constructed multi-family units, buyers are opting to purchase the
higher priced units instead of the townhouse units.
Developed lot and house sales increased from 1996 to 1997 by $2,043,509 due
to sales of fourteen lots, ten houses, seventeen multi-family units and three
commercial lots in 1997, compared with sixteen lots, seven houses, and
thirteen multi-family units a year earlier. As a result of the above and
other minor variations, total gross revenue in the nine month period
increased by $299,410 from the prior year's period.
The cost of developed lots and houses sold increased by $1,245,886 in 1997
and the cost of townhouses sold decreased by $744,396 in 1997; both such
variations are due to corresponding proportionate changes in sales volumes.
While gross other operating expenses increased by $83,039 from 1996 to 1997
due to increased maintenance costs and rising activity levels in home
construction and water company activities, net other operating expenses only
increased by $40,180 due to greater capitalization of expenses in 1997.
Interest expense increased in 1997 because of increased borrowing for
construction activities.
<PAGE>
Part I - Item 2 Management Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operations for Nine Month Periods (Cont.)
As a result of the stated variations and due primarily to the decrease of
townhouse sales, the Company's income before provision for income taxes
decreased from 1996 to 1997 by $253,004.
The Company recognized a provision for income tax in 1997 of $386,000; such
amount serves to reduce deferred income tax assets and it is anticipated that
no income tax will be paid this year. Upon adopting Financial Accounting
Standard #109 ("FAS 109") in 1994 the Company recognized a $4 million dollar
deferred tax asset, and, annually, values the realizability of such asset
based on the Company's ability to generate sufficient revenue in future
periods. It is estimated that the deferred tax assets will be utilized upon
development and sale of the Company's remaining property, and the Company has
begun, effective November 1, 1996, recognizing tax expense at a combined
federal and state rate of 40%.
