Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of the Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and certain reclassifications considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements in order to conform to the current year presentation. Operating results for the
ninethree months endedSeptember 30, 2001March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,2001.2002.The balance sheet at December 31,
20002001 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.For further information, including
definitions fordefinition of capitalized terms not defined herein, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2000. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. The Company limits these risks by following established risk management policies2001.6
Derivative Instruments and
procedures including the use of derivatives. 6The Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. When viewed in conjunction with the underlying and offsetting exposure that the derivatives are designed to hedge, the Company has not sustained a material loss from those instruments nor does it anticipate any material adverse effect on its net income or financial position in the future from the use of derivatives. On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133/138, which requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and to measure those instruments at fair value. Additionally, the fair value adjustments will affect either shareholders' equity or net income depending on whether the derivative instruments qualify as a hedge for accounting purposes and, if so, the nature of the hedging activity. When the terms of an underlying transaction are modified, or when the underlying transaction is terminated or completed, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are marked-to-market with changes in value included in net income each period until the instrument matures. Any derivative instrument used for risk management that does not meet the hedging criteria is marked-to-market each period. As of January 1, 2001, the adoption of the new standard resulted in derivative instruments reported on the balance sheet as liabilities of approximately $6.6 million; an adjustment of approximately $5.3 million to "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income", which are gains and losses not affecting retained earnings in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders' Equity; and a charge of approximately $1.3 million as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company employs derivative financial instruments to hedge qualifying anticipated transactions. Gains and losses are deferred and recognized in net income in the same period that the underlying transaction occurs, expires or is otherwise terminated. As of September 30, 2001, there were approximately $25.4 million in deferred losses, net, included in accumulated other comprehensive income.Hedging ActivitiesAt
September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, the Company had entered into swaps which have been designated as cash flow hedges withana current aggregate notional amount of $614.7 million (notional amounts range from $610.4 million to $626.4 million over the terms of the swaps) at interest rates ranging from3.65125%3.65% to 6.15% maturing at various dates ranging from 2003 to 2007 with a net liability fair value of$27.1$19.0 million; and swaps which have been designated as fair value hedges withana current aggregate notional amount of$296.4$384.7 million (notional amounts range from $380.4 million to $396.4 million over the terms of the swaps) at interest rates ranging from4.458%4.46% to 7.25% maturing at various dates ranging from 2003 to20052011 with a net asset fair value of$13.1$2.0 million.At March 31, 2002, certain joint venture development partnerships in which the Company invested had entered into swaps to hedge the interest rate risk exposure on unconsolidated floating rate construction mortgage loans. The Company has recorded its proportionate share of these qualifying hedges on its consolidated balance sheets. These swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges with a current aggregate notional amount of $329.4 million (notional amounts range from $120.0 million to $538.1 million over the terms of the swaps) at interest rates ranging from 2.28% to 6.94% maturing at various dates ranging from 2002 to 2005 with a net liability fair value of $7.3 million.
As of March 31, 2002, there were approximately $25.5 million in deferred losses, net, included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. On
September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, the net derivative instruments were reported at their fair value as other liabilities of approximately$14.0$17.0 million and as a reduction to investment in unconsolidated entities of approximately $7.3 million.Within the next twelve months theThe Company expects to recognize an estimated$7.6$12.1 million of accumulated other comprehensiveincomeloss as additional interestexpense.

Discontinued Operations
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2002, which did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Under the provisions of SFAS No. 144, for long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company first determines whether any indicators of impairment exist. If indicators exist, the Company compares the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset against the carrying amount of that asset. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset.
For long-lived assets to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the estimated fair value of the asset, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the asset measured at the time that the Company has determined it will sell the asset. Long-lived assets held for disposition are reported at the lower or their carrying amounts or their estimated fair values, less their costs to sell.
15
Goodwill and investments in unconsolidated entities accounted for under the equity method of accounting are specifically excluded from the scope of SFAS No. 144.
On January 11, 2002, the Company disposed of its furniture rental business for $30.0 million and received net proceeds of $28.7 million. No gain/loss on sale was recognized as the net book value at the sale date after giving effect to a previously recorded impairment loss approximated the sales price.

REPORTABLE SEGMENTS16. Reportable Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by senior management. Senior management decides how resources are allocated and assesses performance on a monthly basis.
The Company's primary business is owning, managing, and operating multifamily residential properties, which includes the generation of rental and other related income through the leasing of apartment units to
tenants.residents. Senior management evaluates the performance of each of our apartment communities on an individual basis, however, each of our apartment communities has similar economic characteristics, residents, and products and services so they have been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company's rental real estate segment comprises approximately95.2%98.9% and96.9% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately 95.8% and 94.3%97.9% of total revenues for the quarters endedSeptember 30,March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company's rental real estate segment comprises approximately 99.6% and2000,99.4% of total assets at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.17
The primary financial measure for the Company's rental real estate segment is net operating income ("NOI"), which represents rental income less: 1) property and maintenance expense; 2) real estate
17taxes and insurance expense; and 3) property management expense (all as reflected in the accompanying statements of operations). Current year NOI is compared to prior year NOI and current year budgeted NOI as a measure of financial performance. NOI from our rental real estate totaled approximately $937.1$309.1 million and$886.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and approximately $319.4 million and $294.8$308.1 million for the quarters endedSeptember 30,March 31, 2002, and 2001,and 2000,respectively.During the acquisition, development and/or disposition of real estate, the NOI return on total capitalized costs is the primary measure of financial performance (capitalization rate) the Company considers.

and furniture rental/sales activitiesare immaterial and do not meet the threshold requirements of a reportable segment as provided for in SFAS No. 131.16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS17. Subsequent Events

Propertiesproperties and certain scheduled unsecured note and mortgage note repayments, generally through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company considers its cash provided by operating activities to be adequate to meet operating requirements and payments of distributions. The Company also expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled unsecured note and mortgage debt maturities, property acquisitions, financing of construction and development activities and capital improvements through the issuance of unsecured notes and equity securities, including additional OP Units, and proceeds received from the disposition of certainProperties.properties. In addition, the Company has certainuncollateralized Propertiesunencumbered properties available to secure additional mortgage borrowings in the event that the public capital markets are unavailable to the Company or the cost of alternative sources of capital to the Company is too high.

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures. The Company believes that the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Including Goodwill
The Company periodically evaluates its long-lived assets, including its investments in real estate and goodwill, for impairment indicators. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions and legal factors. Future events could occur which would cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and an impairment loss is warranted.
Depreciation of Investment in Real Estate
The Company depreciates the building component of its investment in real estate over a 30-year estimated useful life, building improvements over a 5-year to 10-year estimated useful life and both the furniture, fixtures and equipment and replacements components over a 5-year estimated useful life, all of which are judgmental determinations.
26
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Including Derivative Instruments
The valuation of financial instruments under SFAS No. 107 and SFAS No. 133 requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the fair value of the instruments. The Company, where possible, bases the fair values of its financial instruments, including its derivative instruments, on listed market prices and third party quotes. Where these are not available, the Company bases its estimates on other factors relevant to the financial instruments.
Stock Option Compensation
The Company has chosen to account for its stock option compensation in accordance with APB No. 25,
which results in no compensation expense for options issued with an exercise price equal to or exceeding market value of the Company's Common Shares on the date of grant, instead of Statement No. 123, which would result in compensation expense being recorded based on the fair value of the stock option compensation issued. Adjusted Net Income
For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, Adjusted Net Income ("ANI") available to Common Shares and OP units decreased $10.6 million as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
The following is a reconciliation of net income available to Common Shares to ANI available to Common Shares and OP Units for the quarters ended March 31, 2002 and 2001:

- Acquisition cost depreciation represents depreciation for the initial cost of the property, including buildings and furniture, fixtures and equipment and depreciation on capital improvements identified in the acquisition underwriting and incurred in the first twenty-four months of ownership when the total cost exceeds $2,000 per unit.
- **
- ANI represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")), including gains or losses from sales of real estate, plus acquisition cost depreciation, plus amortization of goodwill, minus the accumulated acquisition cost depreciation on sold properties, plus/minus extraordinary items and plus the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. Depreciation associated with replacements and capital improvements is deducted in calculating ANI.
The Company believes that ANI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures. ANI in and of itself does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not
27
be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance or to net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. The Company's calculation of ANI may differ from the methodology for calculating ANI utilized by other real estate companies and may differ, for example, due to variations among the Company's and other real estate companies' accounting policies for replacement type items and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
Funds From Operations
For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, Funds From Operations ("FFO") available to Common Shares and OP Units decreased $0.1 million as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
The following is a reconciliation of net income available to Common Shares to FFO available to Common Shares and OP Units for the quarters ended March 31, 2002 and 2001:

- *
- FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization (after adjustments for Partially Owned Properties and Unconsolidated Properties), plus/minus extraordinary items, and plus the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle and impairment charges. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures. FFO in and of itself does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance or to net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. The Company's calculation of FFO may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other real estate companies and may differ, for example, due to variations among the Company's and other real estate companies' accounting policies for replacement type items and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
