AMERICAN CHURCH MORTGAGE COMPANY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS
Nature of Business
American Church Mortgage Company, a Minnesota corporation, was incorporated on
May 27, 1994. The Company was organized to engage primarily in the business of
making mortgage loans to churches and other nonprofit religious organizations
throughout the United States, on terms that it establishes for individual
organizations.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions for interim statements and, therefore, do not include all
information and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of results of
operations, financial position, and changes in cash flow in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management,
such statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows for the period presented.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the year ended December 31, 1999.
Accounting Estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues
and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains its accounts primarily at two financial institutions. At
times throughout the year, the Company's cash and equivalents balances may
exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Cash in
money market funds is not Federally insured. The Company has not experienced any
losses in such accounts.
Bond Portfolio
The Company accounts for its bond portfolio under Financial Accounting Standards
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
The Company classifies its bond portfolio as "available-for sale".
Available-for-sale bonds are carried at fair value. Although no ready public
market for these bonds exists, management believes that their cost approximates
their fair value.
7
<PAGE>
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
Allowance for Mortgage Loans Receivable
The Company follows a policy of providing an allowance for mortgage loans
receivable. At September 30, 2000, management believes the mortgage loans
receivable to be collectible in all material respects, and therefore, no
allowance is presently provided.
Deferred Income
Deferred income represents loan origination fees which are recognized over the
life of the loan as an adjustment to the yield on the loan.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the
financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes
related primarily to differences in recognition of income from loan origination
fees for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred taxes are recognized for
operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income.
The Company has elected to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT).
Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent
that distributions to its shareholders if the Company meets all the requirements
under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Income Per Common Share
No adjustments were made to income for the purpose of calculating earnings per
share. Stock options had no effect on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding.
3. MORTGAGE LOANS AND BOND PORTFOLIO
At September 30, 2000, the Company had mortgage loans receivable totaling
$11,366,513. The loans bear interest ranging from 9.50% to 12.00%. The Company
also had a portfolio of secured church bonds at September 30, 2000. The bonds
pay either semi-annual or quarterly interest ranging from 5.75% to 10.50%. The
combined principal of $2,059,000 at September 30, 2000 is due at various
maturity dates between November 1, 2000 and February 1, 2019. Three bond issues
comprised 85% of the total bond portfolio at September 30, 2000.
The maturity schedule for mortgage loans and bonds receivable as of September
30, 2000 is as follows:

<PAGE>
4. STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company adopted a Stock Option Plan granting each member of the Board of
Directors and the president of the Advisor (Note 5) an option to purchase 3,000
shares of common stock annually upon their re-election. The purchase price of
the stock was to be the fair market value at the grant date. On November 15,
1994, the Company began the annual grant of options to purchase an aggregate of
21,000 shares of common stock at $10 per share. These options became exercisable
November 15, 1995 and 21,000 options granted expired November 15, 1999. No
options were exercised during the nine month period ended September 30, 2000.
The Company has chosen to account for stock based compensation in accordance
with APB Opinion 25. Management believes that the disclosure requirements of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 are not material to its
financial statements.
5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has an Advisory Agreement with Church Loan Advisors, Inc.,
Minnetonka, Minnesota ("Advisor"). The Advisor is responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the Company and provides office space, administrative services and
personnel.
Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Advisor an
annual base management fee of 1.25 percent of average invested assets (generally
defined as the average of the aggregate book value of the assets invested in
securities and equity interests in and loans secured by real estate), which is
payable on a monthly basis. The Advisor will also receive one-half of the
origination fees paid by a mortgage loan borrower in connection with a mortgage
loan made or renewed by the Company. The Company paid to the Advisor management
and origination fees totaling $118,165 and $33,750 through September 30, 2000.
The Advisor and the Company are related through common ownership and common
management. See note 6.
6. PUBLIC OFFERINGS OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK
The Company filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for a third public offering of its common stock in August 1999. The
Company offered to sell 1,500,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $10
per share. The offering is being underwritten by an underwriter (an affiliate of
the Advisor) on a "best efforts" basis, and no minimum sale of stock was
required. The stock sale commenced on September 23, 1999. Commencing September
1, 2000, we filed registration statements with each state securities
commissioner in which our shares are being offered for sale to extend the
offering of our shares for an additional 12 month period. A total of 254,216
shares have been sold through September 30, 2000.
7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments, none of which
are held for trading purposes, are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
September 30, 2000 December 31, 1999
--------------------------- ----------------------------

Bond portfolio 2,048,821 2,048,821 2,056,199 2,056,199
</TABLE>
The carrying value of cash and equivalents approximates fair value. The fair
value of the mortgage loans receivable and the bond portfolio are estimated by
discounting future cash flows using current discount rates that reflect the
risks associated with similar types of loans.
8. LINE OF CREDIT
The Company renewed its $1,000,000 line of credit with its bank on August 1,
2000, subject to certain borrowing base limitations, through August 1, 2001.
Interest is charged at 1% over the prime rate totaling 10.50% at September 30,
2000. The line of credit is collateralized by the mortgage secured bonds held by
the Company. Outstanding borrowings were $399,944 at September 30, 2000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AMERICAN CHURCH MORTGAGE COMPANY
Plan of Operation
We were founded in May 1994 and began a "best efforts" offering of our
common stock on July 11, 1995, and commenced active business operations on April
15, 1996 after completion of the "Minimum Amount" in our initial public offering
(described below). Consequently, for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995,
we had no operating revenues, and expenses were limited to organizational and
offering-related costs.
On July 11, 1995, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective
our offering of 2,000,000 common shares at a price of $10.00 per share. We
achieved the Minimum Offering of at least 200,000 shares ($2,000,000) sold to
not less than 100 individuals (the "Minimum Offering") on April 15, 1996. Until
the Minimum Offering was achieved, we could not commence our active business of
making mortgage loans to churches. Consequently, business operations from
inception (May 27, 1994) to completion of the Minimum Offering (April 15, 1996)
were limited to daily business organizational efforts, activities relating to
the offering, reviewing potential candidates for church mortgage loans to be
made by us once the Minimum Offering was achieved, and conducting informational
meetings with brokers and broker- dealers identified to us by the
Dealer/Manager--American Investors Group, Inc. ("American"), an affiliate of
ours. We concluded our initial public offering on November 8, 1996. As of such
date we had sold 335,481 shares to approximately 281 individuals, not including
20,000 shares ($200,000) previously purchased by our initial shareholder -- DRM
Holdings, Inc.
On September 26, 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared
effective our second public offering of 1,500,000 common shares at a price of
$10.00 per share ($15,000,000) under SEC File 333-27601. The Offering was
co-underwritten by American Investors Group, Inc. and LaSalle St. Securities,
Inc., ("LaSalle"). American acted in the capacity of the Managing Underwriter
and is an affiliate of ours. The Offering was conducted on a"best-efforts" basis
pursuant to applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
concluded our second public offering on January 22, 1999. We sold 799,759 shares
during our second public offering.
On September 23, 1999 the Securities and Exchange Commission declared
effective our third public offering of 1,500,000 common shares at a price of
$10.00 per shares ($15,000,000) under SEC files 333-81819. The Offering is being
conducted on a "best-efforts" basis pursuant to applicable rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. As of September 30, 2000 we had sold 254,216
shares and had 1,456,082 shares outstanding and approximately 759 individual
shareholders.
We currently have Thirty two first mortgage loans aggregating $14,350,750
in principal amount, two second mortgage loans aggregating $455,000 in principal
amount and $2,059,000 in principal amount of first mortgage bonds issued by
churches. Funding of additional first mortgage loans is expected to continue on
an on-going basis as more investable assets become available through (i) the
sale of additional shares in future public offerings; (ii) prepayment and
repayment at maturity of existing loans; (iv) borrowed funds; and (v) dividends
reinvested under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
Results of Operations
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2000 our total assets
increased by $1,185,079 due primarily to sale of our common stock. Total
liabilities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2000 decreased by
$46,282 due primarily to the "pay-down" on the line of credit we have with our
bank. We reduced the outstanding balance on our line of credit to $399,944 for
the period ended September 30, 2000. All loans we have made range in interest
rate charged to the borrowers from 9.50% to 12.00%. As of September 30, 2000,
the average, principal-adjusted interest rate on our portfolio of loans was
10.51%. Our portfolio of bonds has an average current yield of 9.02%.
Our net operating income for the three month period ended September 30,
2000 was $282,392 on total revenues of $347,531. Interest income earned on our
portfolio of loans was $289,296. During the three month period ended September
30, 20000 we "paid-down" $400,056 on our line of credit. Stockholders' Equity
rose $420,968 to $13,184,680 as a result of the sale and issuance of our common
stock of which proceeds were used to "pay-down" our line of credit. Our
liabilities at the end of the three month period ended September 30, 2000 are
primarily comprised of a "Deferred Income", reflecting the practice of
recognizing origination income -- fees charged to borrowers at the commencement
of its loans -- over the life of each loan and dividends declared as of
September 30, 2000 but not yet paid.
10
<PAGE>
Our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.1875 for each share held of
record on September 30, 2000. Dividends are computed and paid to each
Shareholder based on the number of days during a quarter that the Shareholder
owned his or her shares. The dividend, which was paid October 30, 2000,
represents a 7.50% annual rate of return on each share of common stock owned and
purchased for $10 per share. This dividend combined with the previous dividends
paid to Shareholders in 2000 represents an annualized dividend yield of 8.33% to
investors.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our revenue is derived principally from interest income, and secondarily,
origination fees and renewal fees generated by mortgage loans we make. We also
earn income through interest on funds that are invested pending their use in
funding mortgage loans or distributions of dividends to its Shareholders, and on
income generated on church bonds it may purchase and own. We generate revenue
through (i) permitted temporary investments of the net proceeds from the sale of
the shares, and (ii) implementation of its business plan of making mortgage
loans to churches and other non-profit religious organizations. Our principal
expenses are advisory fees, legal and accounting fees, communications costs with
our Shareholders, and the expenses of our stock transfer agent, registrar and
dividend reinvestment agent.
Our future capital needs are expected to be met by (i) additional sale of
its shares to the public (ii) prepayment, repayment at maturity and renewal of
mortgage loans we make, and (iii) borrowed funds. We believe that the "rolling"
effect of mortgage loans maturing, together with dividends reinvested under the
Dividend Reinvestment Plan, will provide a supplemental source of capital to
fund our business operations in future years. Nevertheless, we believe that it
may be desirable, if not necessary, to sell additional shares of common stock,
in order to enhance our capacity to make mortgage loans on a continuous basis.
There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional capital on terms
acceptable for such purposes.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2000 our cash position
increased from $382,765 to $583,841. This increase was due to an increase in net
cash from operating activities and a decrease in net cash used for investing
activities and financing activities. Our future cash position may increase due
to (i) the sale of additional shares to the public (ii) prepayment, repayment at
maturity of mortgage loans we make and (iii) borrowed funds. Our future cash
position may decrease due to increases in cash used in our operating activities
and deployment of available cash into new mortgage loans and first mortgage
bonds issued by churches.
We may borrow funds in an amount not to exceed 50% of our average invested
assets. On August 1, 2000 we renewed our line of credit with Beacon Bank,
Shorewood Minnesota. Interest is charged at 1% over the prime rate totaling
10.50% at September 30, 2000. The line of credit is collateralized by the
mortgage secured bonds we own. We have borrowed $399,944 against our line of
credit as of September 30, 2000. During the three month period ended September
30, 2000 we had paid $15,526 in interest expense.
