INTRODUCTORY NOTE
The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission on September 21, 2001, is being amended to revise “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Results of Operations” (“MD&A”), to describe in further detail factors responsible for changes in various line items of the Company’s historical results of operations and to place such discussion before the unaudited pro forma information which management believes provides a meaningful comparison of the periods presented. Additionally, the table originally found in the MD&A containing a three-year comparison of unaudited pro forma data has been abbreviated to a two-year comparison. Finally, the information contained in footnote 5 to the consolidated financial statements containing the disclosure of unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations, which excluded the operating results from the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa because it was disposed of mid-way through the Company’s fiscal year in December 2000, has been replaced with the historical results of operations of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa.
This information does not change the Company’s consolidated results of operations, or any line item in the consolidated financial statements. Other than the MD&A and the presentation of footnote 5, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K is unchanged. The information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A does not reflect any subsequent information or events and remains as of June 30, 2001, or, as of the date of the filing of the original Form 10-K, as required.

PART I
Item 1. Business
Introduction
Boca Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) is an owner and operator of five luxury resorts located in Florida with hotels, conference facilities, golf courses, spas, marinas and private clubs (the “leisure and recreation business”). The Company owned an entertainment and sports business, which primarily included the operations of the Florida Panthers Hockey Club (the “Panthers”) and related arena management operations. This business was sold on July 25, 2001 and, accordingly, the entertainment and sports business has been accounted for as discontinued operations.
The Company’s resorts include the Boca Raton Resort and Club (Boca Raton), the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay (Naples), the Edgewater Beach Hotel (Naples), the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina (Fort Lauderdale) and the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center (Fort Lauderdale). The Company also owns and operates two championship golf courses located in Florida (the Grande Oaks Golf Club in Davie and Naples Grande Golf Club in Naples) that serve as additional amenities to the Company’s resorts as well as components of the Company’s exclusive social club, known as the Premier Club. Previously, the Company owned the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, however, this property was sold on December 22, 2000.
The Company’s resorts possess numerous competitive and operational strengths. The resorts are unique, irreplaceable assets in desirable locations with strong recognition and positioning in their markets. The facilities and amenities at the Company’s resorts provide multiple and diverse revenue streams and attract upscale business and leisure customers. In addition, through the development of additional guestrooms and/or resort amenities, the resorts have opportunities to significantly increase revenue and cash flow.
For a discussion of the Company’s revenue, profits and assets, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the Consolidated Financial Statements included later herein. The Company was incorporated in Florida in 1996 and re-incorporated in Delaware in 1997.
Business Strategy
While management continuously evaluates ownership, acquisition and divestiture alternatives, its current strategy is to focus on internal expansion and development opportunities of its existing properties. The Company’s objective is to maximize the cash flow from, and the value of, the Company’s leisure and recreation business by:
| | |
| • | Continuing Internal Growth Through Capital Improvements at the Resorts. Management believes that the Company’s resorts have the opportunity for continued internal growth. In addition to normal recurring capital expenditures, during the past five years over $200 million has been invested (or is committed to be invested) in the resorts on capital projects including the Boca Raton Resort and Club marina wing complex (consisting of 112 new water-view luxury guestrooms), spa complex, golf clubhouse, marina slips, retail and restaurant space, conference center, golf course, tennis and fitness center, parking garage and accelerated guestroom renovation; the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay with a new pool complex, additional meeting space and beachfront improvements; the construction of Grande Oaks Golf Club and Naples Grande Golf Club; as well as room renovations at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina, the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center and the Edgewater Beach Hotel. |
Management believes that these capital expenditures have resulted in, and will continue to produce, increases to the average daily room rates at its resorts. Management also believes that the high quality of the Company’s resorts will continue to attract higher spending corporate groups, which in turn will increase total revenue per available room. For the year ended June 30, 2001, the average daily room rate was $209.79, room revenue per available room was $150.42 and total revenue per available room was $353.97, excluding the
1
Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa. For the year ended June 30, 2000, the average daily room rate was $201.08, room revenue per available room was $141.09 and total revenue per available room was $326.58, excluding the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa.
| | |
| • | Continued Focus on Upscale Business and Leisure Customers. Management believes that its focus on corporate group customers and upscale business and leisure customers allows the Company to maximize total revenue per available room. It has been management’s experience that these customers are more likely to use the additional amenities and facilities available at the resorts, thereby increasing revenue. Additionally, group customers tend to book reservations 12 to 36 months in advance of their stay, thus enabling management to better estimate future revenue streams and manage corresponding expenses. Group business has also been used by the Company to fill off-peak leisure periods. Management believes that by targeting upscale customers the Company is well positioned to take advantage of demographic trends (which include an aging “baby-boom” population with increasing disposable income) that are creating increased demand for luxury resorts and related amenities. Management also believes the resorts will be able to capitalize on these trends given the properties’ unique nature and locations. The Company’s ability to capitalize on these trends is enhanced by the high barriers of entry into the luxury resort industry. |
|
| • | Continuing to Capitalize on Integration and Cost-Saving Opportunities. Management believes the integration of certain aspects of the resort operations will allow the Company to realize significant operating efficiencies. Management is focusing on integrating the operations of all of its resorts, including reservations, purchasing, training, information systems, insurance and marketing, in order to achieve greater operating efficiencies and improved profit margins. In addition, management believes that managing all of the resorts by a single management team with established practices and systems will improve the efficiency of the resort operations and will offer employees internal promotional opportunities. |
|
| • | Expanding Premier Club Concept. The Company continues to expand and develop its Premier Club concept, which was first introduced in 1991 at the Boca Raton Resort and Club. Membership in the Boca Raton Resort Premier Club allows Premier Club members’ access to the Boca Raton Resort and Club grounds, restaurants, recreational facilities and other private social functions, which are otherwise restricted to resort guests. The Company expanded its Premier Club operations, with the opening of Grande Oaks Golf Club in June 1999 and Naples Grande Golf Club in February 2000. In addition to attracting new club members who provide an additional revenue stream, the Company is able to offer guests of the Company’s Fort Lauderdale and Naples resorts play at these new 18-hole championship facilities and is able to offer reciprocal amenities to the Boca Raton Resort and Club Premier Club members. With its Premier Clubs, the Company generates substantial incremental revenue from its existing facilities and services. Management anticipates that the Premier Club will continue to be successful in marketing resort amenities, including restaurants, pools, and where available, tennis, golf, spas and other leisure and recreational facilities to residents in local communities in a country club/social club setting. |

(2) | Boca Raton Resort and Club maintains one 18-hole golf course on premises and another at the resort’s country club location. In addition, the resort has access to two 18-hole golf courses through use agreements. |
(3) | Guests at the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay and the Edgewater Beach Hotel have access to the new 18-hole Naples Grande Golf Club, which is owned by the Company, and to three 18-hole golf courses through use agreements. |

(5) | Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina and Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center have access to Grande Oaks Golf Club, which is owned by the Company. |
(6) | Excludes the acreage associated with Grande Oaks and Naples Grande Golf Clubs. |
Amenities and services at the resorts include conference facilities, golf courses, tennis facilities, spas, fitness centers, marinas, restaurants, retail outlets, swimming pools, and other activities and services. The diversity and number of amenities and services at the facilities provide the Company with substantial non-room revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2001, approximately 58% of resort revenue was generated from non-room sources. In addition, these luxury amenities and services allow the Company to maintain premium pricing for its rooms.
The resorts’ conference facilities and other amenities make them attractive locations for group functions. The conference facilities include over 235,000 square feet of conference space. The Company maintains its own in-house planning and logistics capabilities that allow sales and marketing personnel to market multiple resort locations to corporate and association groups that prefer to change conference locations from year to year.
The Company continues to expand and develop the Premier Club concept, which was first introduced in 1991 at the Boca Raton Resort and Club. Membership in the Boca Raton Resort Premier Club allows Premier Club members’ access to the Boca Raton Resort and Club grounds, restaurants, recreational facilities and other private social functions, which are otherwise restricted to resort guests. The Boca Raton Resort Premier Club currently requires an initial membership fee of $50,000 and annual social dues starting at $3,150. Additional dues are required for members who wish to use the resort’s golf and tennis facilities. In addition, Premier Club members generate revenue through the use of existing resort facilities and services, which are available on a fee-for-use basis. The Company opened Grande Oaks Golf Club in June 1999 and Naples Grande Golf Club in February 2000 offering members and guests of the Company’s Fort Lauderdale and Naples resorts play at these championship golf facilities as well as reciprocal amenities to the Boca Resort Premier Club member. The Company currently charges $33,500 and $30,000 for membership initiation fees at Grande Oaks Golf Club and Naples Grande Golf Club, respectively, and annual golf dues of $5,356 and $4,700 at Grande Oaks Golf Club and Naples Grande Golf Club, respectively.

|
| • | Franchise Agreement. Upon the acquisition of Hyatt Regency Pier 66, the Company assumed the rights under a 20-year franchise agreement with Hyatt Franchise Corporation. The Hyatt franchise agreement terminates in November 2014. The Hyatt franchise agreement provides for the payment of |
4
| | |
| | monthly royalty fees equal to 5% of gross room revenue. The Hyatt franchise agreement also provides for the payment to Hyatt of certain Hyatt “allocable chain expenses” relating to sales and marketing costs based on the total number of guestrooms at Hyatt Regency Pier 66 compared to the average number of guestrooms in all Hyatt hotels in the United States, and the Hyatt franchise agreement provides for the payment of a fee for using the Hyatt reservation system.

Annual fees payable to Radisson pursuant to the Radisson license agreement are 5% of gross room sales. |
|
| • | Leases. The site of the resort is subject to a land lease that expires in 2062. |
In addition to the resort properties discussed above, the Company also owns Grande Oaks Golf Club and Naples Grande Golf Club. Grande Oaks Golf Club was formerly known as Rolling Hills Golf Club, site of the hit comedy “Caddy Shack”. The property now features a redesigned 18-hole championship golf course designed by Raymond Floyd, a 35-acre, newly designed practice facility and a newly constructed clubhouse. Naples Grande Golf Club, which opened in February 2000, was designed by golf architect Rees Jones. He created an optimum environment for golfers, relying on the natural surroundings and existing foliage.
Customers and Marketing
The core customer base for the Company’s business consists of corporate and other group customers, affluent local residents, upscale leisure travelers and individual business travelers. The Company’s marketing efforts involve (1) use of a sales force to develop national corporate and other group business for the resort facilities by focusing on identifying, obtaining and maintaining corporate and other group accounts whose employees conduct business nationwide, and (2) the use of advertisements that target individual business travelers and upscale leisure travelers in magazines such as Conde Nast Traveler, Travel and Leisure, Travel Weekly and Meetings and Conventions as well as newspapers such as The New York Times. The Company’s franchised resorts also benefit from the strong distribution resulting from the national reservation systems of the franchisors of the Hyatt and Radisson brands. The Company continues to focus on expanding its Internet presence and sales capabilities to increase revenue and improve customer service. In addition, the Company is enhancing its marketing efforts by integrating the Company’s proprietary customer databases, in order to sell additional products and services to existing customers, improve occupancy rates and create additional marketing opportunities.
5
Competition
The resort and hotel industry is highly competitive. Competitive factors include room rates, quality of accommodations, service levels, convenience of location, reputation, reservation systems, name recognition, and availability of alternative resort and hotel operations in local markets. While some of the Company’s competitors are private management firms, several are large national and international chains that own and operate hotels or manage hotels owned by third parties. A variety of brands compete directly with the Company.
Insurance
The Company maintains comprehensive insurance on its properties, including liability, business interruption, fire and extended coverage including windstorm and flood, in the types and amounts management believes are customary for the resort and hotel industry. Management uses its discretion in determining amounts, coverage limits and deductibility provisions of insurance, with a view to obtaining appropriate insurance on its properties at a reasonable cost and on suitable terms. This may result in insurance coverage that, in the event of loss, might not be sufficient to pay the full current market value of the property. In addition, in the event of such loss, the insurance proceeds received by the Company might not be adequate to restore its economic position.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations, an owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real property, as well as for the costs of complying with environmental laws regulating on-going operations. In connection with the ownership and operation of its properties, the Company may be potentially liable for such costs. The Company has obtained Phase I environmental site assessments for the real property on which each of the resorts is located. In addition, Phase II environmental assessments have been conducted at several properties. Phase I assessments are intended to identify existing, potential and suspected environmental contamination and regulatory compliance concerns, and generally include historical reviews of the property, reviews of certain public records, preliminary visual investigations of the site and surrounding properties and the preparation and issuance of written reports. Phase II assessments involve the sampling of environmental media, such as subsurface soil and groundwater, to confirm whether contamination is present at areas of concern identified during the course of a Phase I assessment.
The Phase I and Phase II assessments have not revealed any environmental liability or compliance concerns that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the business, nor is management aware of any such material liability or concern. Phase I and Phase II assessments cannot provide full and complete knowledge of environmental conditions and compliance matters. Therefore, management cannot assure you that: (1) material environmental liabilities or compliance concerns do not exist; (2) an identified matter that does not appear reasonably likely to be material will not result in significantly greater expenditures than is currently anticipated; or (3) there are no material environmental liabilities or compliance concerns of which management is unaware.
Employees
At June 30, 2001, the Company employed 3,334 full-time and 392 part-time employees in connection with its leisure and recreation business. In addition, the Company employs 15 corporate administrative personnel. None of the employees are subject to any collective bargaining agreement and the Company believes that its relationship with its employees is good.
Seasonality
The Company’s revenue and income are seasonal in nature and are directly affected by the strength and seasonality of the tourism and leisure industry. Tourism is dependent upon weather and the traditional seasons for travel. Because of this variability in demand, the Company’s revenue fluctuates quarter-to-quarter, and
6
revenue for the first quarter of each year can be expected to be lower than the remaining quarters. Although historically the trend in quarterly revenue for the second, third and fourth quarters of each year is generally higher than the first quarter, there can be no assurance that this will occur in future periods. Accordingly, quarterly or other interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for any quarter or for the full year.
Trademarks
The Company has registered trademarks and service marks, some of which, including several relating to the Boca Resort name, are of material importance to the Company’s business. The Company’s other related marks, while valuable, are not material to its business. Trademarks are valid as long as they are in use and/or their registrations are properly maintained and they have not been found to be generic. The Company presently uses two national trade names for two of its resorts pursuant to licensing arrangements with national franchisors. The duration for use pursuant to the licensing arrangements is disclosed under “Franchise Agreement” and “License Agreement.”
Disposition Opportunities and Discontinued Operations
Management periodically reviews the Company’s business with the view to identifying properties or other assets that no longer complement its operations. On July 25, 2001, the Company sold its entertainment and sports business after a thorough examination of its strategic relationship to the core leisure and recreation operations. The purchase price for the business, which incorporated certain working capital adjustments, consisted of $83.5 million in cash, an $11.2 million secured promissory note and the assumption by the purchasers of certain off-balance sheet contingencies including a $10 million construction obligation secured by a performance bond. The net proceeds from the sale of the business after payment of disposal costs and income taxes is estimated to be between $67.0 million and $69.0 million, and the gain on disposition, which will be recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2001, is estimated to be between $23.0 million and $25.0 million. Accordingly, the Company’s entertainment and sports business has been accounted for as discontinued operations and the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been restated to report separately the net assets and liabilities and operating results of this discontinued operation.
On December 22, 2000, the Company executed a definitive agreement and closed on the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa for $335.0 million, plus certain working capital adjustments. The Company received $283.0 million in gross cash proceeds and the buyer of the property assumed $59.4 million in indebtedness. The net proceeds from the asset sale amounted to $279.0 million and was substantially used to repay indebtedness.
Risk Factors
The business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects of the Company, and the prevailing market price and performance of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including the matters discussed below. Such factors, among other items, include:
| |
| The Company faces risks relating to travel. The Company’s customers consist of corporate and other group customers, upscale leisure travelers and individual business travelers, many of which are dependent upon commercial airlines as a primary means of transportation. A change in travel patterns resulting from slowing economic conditions, a change in corporate policies relating to group meetings, air or other travel disruption, third party increases in travel costs or disruption caused by natural disaster, war or political unrest could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. |
|
| The Company faces a variety of risks associated with operating resorts. The Company may encounter risks common to the operations of resorts, including over-building (which may lower room rates), increases in operating costs due to inflation or other factors and decreases in revenue due to moderate or severe economic downturns. The Company may also face risks relating to the concentration |
7
| |
| of the resorts in South Florida. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. |
|
| The Company may make significant capital expenditures to further develop the resorts and these expenditures involve risks. The Company’s growth strategy contemplates expanding the infrastructure at certain of its resorts or expanding its presence within one or more markets. The resorts may also need periodic renovations or other capital improvements to keep them well maintained and competitive. Unexpected excessive costs of any expansion or needed renovation or capital improvements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Also, any capital expenditure for expansion, renovation or improvement of the resorts may not generate the financial returns expected. Such capital expenditures could involve certain risks, including the possibility of environmental problems; the possibility that cash to fund renovations will not be available or that financing for renovations will not be available on favorable terms; uncertainties as to market demand or deterioration in market demand after commencement of renovations; the emergence of unanticipated zoning and regulatory requirements; so called “acts of God” such as hurricanes that could adversely impact a project and competition from other resorts, hotels and alternative lodging facilities. |
|
| The Company may need to make substantial capital expenditures in order to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The resorts and other properties are subject to the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), which generally requires that public accommodations be made accessible to disabled persons. Management believes that the resorts and other properties are in substantial compliance with the ADA and that the Company will not be required to make substantial capital expenditures to address the requirements of the ADA. However, compliance with the ADA could require removal of access barriers and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants. If the Company were required to make substantial alterations in one or more of the resorts or the other properties in order to comply with the ADA, it’s financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. |
|
| The Company may become subject to liabilities under environmental laws. Operating costs may be affected by the obligation to pay for the cost of complying with existing environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, including the cleanup of contamination, as well as the cost of complying with future legislation. In connection with the acquisition of the resorts and other properties, Phase I, and in some instances Phase II, environmental site assessments were obtained in order to evaluate potential environmental liabilities at these properties. Although these assessments have identified certain matters that will require the Company to incur costs to remedy, based on current information, none of these matters appears likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations or liquidity. However, because these assessments cannot give full and complete knowledge of environmental liability and compliance matters, management cannot assure you that the costs of complying with environmental laws and of defending against claims of liability arising under environmental laws will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations. |
|
| The Company’s resort business is seasonal. The resort operations are generally seasonal. The resorts historically experience greater revenue, costs and profits in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year ended June 30 due to increased occupancy and room rates during the winter months. |
|
| The Company competes for customers. The hotel and leisure industry is highly competitive. The Company’s properties compete for customers with other hotel and resort properties, and, with respect to its Premier Club, with other operators of social clubs and golf courses. Some of the Company’s competitors may have substantially greater marketing and financial resources and they may improve their facilities, reduce their prices or expand or improve their marketing programs in ways that adversely affect the Company’s operating results. |
|
| The Company’s financing agreements limit operating flexibility. Certain of the Company’s loan agreements restrict, among other things, the ability to borrow money; pay dividends on stock or make certain other restricted payments; use assets as security in other transactions; make investments; enter into certain transactions with the affiliates; and sell certain assets or merge with other companies. These |
8
| |
| debt instruments also require the Company to maintain specified consolidated financial ratios and satisfy certain consolidated financial tests. Although management is confident that the Company will satisfy all of these requirements, the Company’s ability to meet those financial ratios and financial tests may be affected by events beyond its control, and management cannot assure you that the Company will meet those tests. |
|
| Control by H. Wayne Huizenga. The Company has two classes of common stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. On each matter submitted for stockholder approval each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to 10,000 votes. As of June 30, 2001, Mr. Huizenga, the Company’s Chairman, beneficially owned voting stock of the Company with the power to vote approximately 98.5% of the total votes entitled to be cast on any matter submitted to a vote of stockholders. As the sole owner of Class B Common Stock, Mr. Huizenga has the ability to indirectly control the management and policies as well as the outcome of substantially all non-extraordinary matters submitted to the stockholders for approval, including the election of directors. |
|
| Nothing in the charter or bylaws restricts the transfer of Class B Common Stock. As a result, Mr. Huizenga may sell his controlling interest without the approval of the holders of Class A Common Stock and Mr. Huizenga may receive a substantial premium price for selling his controlling interest in the Company. |
|
| The Company depends on key personnel. For the foreseeable future, the Company will be materially dependent on the services of Mr. Huizenga. The loss of Mr. Huizenga’s services could have a material adverse effect on the business. The Company does not carry key man life insurance on Mr. Huizenga or on any of the officers or directors. |
|
| The Company may face a variety of risks if it enters into business acquisitions, joint ventures and/or divestitures in the future. The Company may pursue acquisitions of resort-related or other types of businesses. In addition, the Company may pursue joint ventures and/or divestitures in the future. The Company’s success will depend upon the ability to identify and finance attractive alternative business acquisitions, ventures and/or divestitures. The risks related to acquisitions, joint ventures and/or divestitures include: potential diversion of management; unanticipated liabilities or contingencies from acquired businesses or ventures; environmental and other regulatory costs; suitability of a joint venture partner; increased interest costs and costs related to integration of acquisitions; integrating the businesses that the Company acquires; need to manage growth of acquired businesses or joint ventures; potential corporate reorganization and reallocation of resources due to divestitures and potential one-time losses on divestitures. |
|
| The Company may seek additional financing. Management believes that the cash flow from operations, together with cash received from the sale of the entertainment and sports business, will be sufficient to finance the business operations, meet the debt obligations and fund the short-term growth strategy of the Company. However, management cannot assure you that the business will generate the level of cash flow from operations that it expects or that future borrowings under credit facilities will be available to the Company. If the plans or assumptions change or if the Company experiences unanticipated costs or competitive pressures, or if the Company cannot reduce its cost of borrowing or increase its borrowing base it may seek additional capital. Management believes the Company can obtain additional capital by selling debt (provided certain incurrence tests are met pursuant to existing debt agreements) or equity securities and/or by borrowing money, although no assurances can be provided that it will be able to do so. If additional capital is not obtained when it is needed, this may have a material adverse effect on the Company. |
Item 2. Properties
The Company’s corporate headquarters are located at the Boca Raton Resort and Club. The Company considers its resorts to be leading establishments with respect to desirability of location, size of facilities, physical condition, quality and variety of services offered in the areas in which they are located. See further

description of properties under “Business”. Certain of the Company’s resorts serve as security under a revolving credit facility. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

(1) | The Company acquired substantially all of its properties comprising the leisure and recreation business during fiscal 1997 and 1998. |
(2) | EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, extraordinary items and discontinued operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (see below) are used by management and certain investors as indicators of the Company’s historical ability to service debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is intended to represent cash flows for the period. In addition, they have not been presented as alternatives to either (a) operating income (as determined by GAAP) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by GAAP) and are thus susceptible to varying calculations. EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. |
(3) | Represents the annual change in deferred revenue from the Company’s Premier Clubs. The Premier Clubs currently require a non-refundable initial membership fee. Initial membership fees are recorded as revenue over the estimated life of the membership. Unrecognized portions of the initial membership fees are included in deferred revenue in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
(4) | Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the amount of the Company’s Premier Club net membership fees deferred during the period. |
(5) | EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA divided by revenue. |
(6) | Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the sum of revenue plus the Company’s Premier Club net membership fees deferred during the period. |

Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of the Company, which are included elsewhere herein.
Business Philosophy
The Company’s current business strategy is to focus on expanding the leisure and recreation business. However, management continuously evaluates ownership, acquisition and divestiture alternatives with the intention of maximizing shareholder value.
Seasonality
The resort operations are generally seasonal. The resorts historically experience greater revenue, costs and profits in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year ended June 30 due to increased occupancy and room rates during the winter months.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation and changing prices have not had a material impact on the Company’s revenue and results of operations. Based on the current economic climate, the Company does not expect that inflation and changing prices will have a material impact on the Company’s revenue or earnings during fiscal 2002. Many of the costs of operating the resorts can be fixed for certain periods of time, reducing the short-term effects of changes in the rate of inflation. Room rates, which are set on a daily basis, can be rapidly changed to meet changes in inflation rates (as well as other changing market conditions). The Company has less flexibility in changing group rates since guest reservations are typically made 12 to 36 months in advance of the stay. To the extent inflationary trends affect short-term interest rates, a portion of the Company’s debt service costs may be adversely affected. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 141, “Business Combinations” prohibits the pooling method of accounting for business combinations and requires business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The requirements of this statement should be applied to business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 141 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets”. SFAS No. 142 addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually, or with a group of assets, should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. It also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill shall not be amortized. Goodwill shall be tested for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit. If the carrying amount of reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The provisions of this statement are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Early adoption is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001, provided that the first interim financial statements have not previously been issued. This statement is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in its financial statements at that date. Impairment losses for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that arise due to the initial application of this statement (resulting from a transitional impairment test) are to be reported as resulting from a change in accounting principle. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will early adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and will not be able to determine the ultimate impact of this statement on its results of operations or financial position until such time as the Company applies its provisions. Amortization of goodwill totaled $1.7 million for the year ended
14
June 30, 2001, however, this is not intended to be indicative of the expected impact on the Company’s future results of operations.
SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position and will adopt such standards on July 1, 2002, as required.

Resort Revenue
The leisure and recreation business generates a diversified stream of revenue. Leisure and recreation revenue totaled $329.2 million, $361.4 million and $327.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Non-room revenue, which represented over 56% of leisure and recreation revenue for each period presented, was derived from sources such as food and beverage sales, yachting and marina revenue, golf revenue, club membership fees and dues, retail sales and other resort amenities.
The decrease in leisure and recreation revenue during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 followed a decrease in available room nights due to the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa mid-way through the fiscal year in December 2000. The decrease in revenue resulting from the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa was partially offset by an overall increase in revenue derived from the Company’s other resort properties. See discussion of same store operating results under “Results of Operations — Pro Forma to Exclude the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa” later herein.
The increase in leisure and recreation revenue during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was the result of increases in ADR, occupancy, along with total available rooms (due to the completion of a 120 guestroom addition at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa in September 1999). In addition, non-room revenue increased during this same period due, in part, to a rise in revenue generated from the Company’s exclusive social club, known as the Premier Club.
Resort Operating Expenses
Cost of leisure and recreation services totaled $143.6 million or 44% of revenue for the year ended June 30, 2001, $156.6 million or 43% of revenue for the year ended June 30, 2000 and $141.5 million or 43% of revenue for the year ended June 30, 1999. Cost of leisure and recreation services primarily consisted of direct costs to service rooms, marinas, food and beverage operations, retail establishments and other amenities at the resorts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) of the leisure and recreation business totaled $81.4 million, or 25% of revenue during the year ended June 30, 2001, $89.3 million or 25% of revenue during the year ended June 30, 2000 and $86.3 million or 26% of revenue for year ended June 30, 1999. S,G&A of the leisure and recreation business primarily consisted of utility and property costs, real estate taxes, insurance, franchise agreement fees and administrative salaries and expenses.
Amortization and depreciation expense for the leisure and recreation business totaled $35.2 million, $34.3 million and $28.2 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in amortization and depreciation expense during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily due to the completion of several capital projects at the Boca Raton Resort and Club and Registry Resort resulting in additional depreciation expense, offset by a $4.2 million decrease in
16
amortization and depreciation expense due to the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa. The increase in amortization and depreciation expense during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was primarily due to the completion of several capital projects including a 120 guestroom addition at the Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa, the redesign and construction at Grande Oaks Golf Club and the development of Naples Grande Golf Club.
Resort Operating Income
Operating income for the leisure and recreation business totaled $69.0 million, $81.2 million and $71.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in operating income for the leisure and recreation business during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was due to a $17.6 million decline in operating income resulting from the sale of the Arizona Biltmore mid-way through the fiscal year, offset by an overall increase in operating income from the Company’s other resort properties. See discussion of same store operating results under “Results of Operations – Pro Forma to Exclude the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa” later herein. The primary factors contributing to the improvement in operating income for the leisure and recreation business during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 were (1) an increase in non-room revenue (2) an increase in ADR (3) an increase in rooms available for occupancy due to the construction of additional rooms at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa and (4) higher profit margins as a result of cost efficiencies from business integration.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses totaled $8.2 million, $9.5 million and $8.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The decrease in corporate general and administrative expenses during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily because of a decline in legal expense and because of a decrease in the management fee, equal to 1% of total revenue, payable to Huizenga Holdings, Inc., a corporation whose sole shareholder is the Company’s Chairman. Pursuant to the management services agreement, Huizenga Holdings, Inc. provides certain administrative, financing, tax, investor relations and strategy related services to the Company. The decrease in total revenue during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was substantially due to the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa as indicated above. The increase in corporate general and administrative expenses during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was primarily due to an increase in certain non-recurring legal fees and an increase in the management fee that varies with the Company’s total revenue.
Interest and Other Income
Interest and other income totaled $5.2 million, $1.5 million, and $2.8 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in interest and other income during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was because the Company invested proceeds from the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa in interest bearing time deposit accounts until such proceeds were used to reduce higher rate indebtedness. See discussion of interest and other expense to follow. The decrease in interest and other income during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was because the Company recognized less interest income due to a decline in interest bearing cash on hand.
Interest and Other Expense
Interest and other expense totaled $47.2 million, $55.0 million and $55.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company’s average cost of borrowing was 10.0%, 10.0% and 10.7% for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company’s average outstanding indebtedness was $472 million, $550 million and $518 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in the average outstanding indebtedness during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily because the Company reduced debt during the second half of its fiscal year with the proceeds from the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa. As of
17
June 30, 2001, the Company’s indebtedness has been reduced to $273.5 million. The increase in the average outstanding indebtedness during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was primarily because the Company financed certain capital expenditures associated with resort expansion.
EBITDA
EBITDA represents earnings before extraordinary items, interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and discontinued operations. EBITDA totaled $96.0 million, $106.0 million, and $90.7 million during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999 respectively. The decrease in EBITDA during the year ended June 30, 2001 over the prior year period was primarily the result of the sale of the Arizona Biltmore in December 2000, partially offset by an increase in revenue and profits derived at the Company’s other resort properties. See discussion of same store operating results under “Results of Operations – Pro Forma to Exclude the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa” later herein. The increase in EBITDA during the year ended June 30, 2000 over June 30, 1999 was substantially attributable to better operating results (including stronger profit margins) for the leisure and recreation business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (see below) are used by management and certain investors as indicators of the Company’s historical ability to service debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is intended to represent cash flows for the period. In addition, they have not been presented as alternatives to either (a) operating income (as determined by GAAP) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by GAAP) and are thus susceptible to varying calculations. EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the amount of net membership fees deferred during the periods presented. The net membership fees deferred represents the annual change in deferred revenue arising from the Premier Clubs at the Boca Raton Resort and Club, Naples Grande and Grande Oaks Golf Clubs. Net memberships deferred totaled $11.8 million, $ 12.5 million, and $8.2 million during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999 respectively. The Company opened Naples Grande Golf Club in February 2000, which resulted in strong introductory membership sales during the year ended June 30, 2000.
Discontinued Operations
The Company sold its entertainment and sports business in July 2001. Accordingly, the operations have been accounted for as discontinued operations. The losses from discontinued operations were $8.9 million, $3.8 million and $436,000, for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The figures for the year ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 are net of a $5.4 million and $805,000 benefit for income taxes, respectively. The figure for the year ended June 30, 1999 is net of a provision for income taxes of $329,000. The decrease in operating results before income taxes during the periods presented was primarily due to a decline in average paid attendance at Panther home games and higher players’ salaries.
A portion of the Company’s interest expense has been allocated to discontinued operations based upon its average borrowing cost and the average funds the discontinued operations borrowed from the parent. Certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company have been allocated to discontinued operations based upon the specific identification method.
Extraordinary Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt, Net of Income Tax Benefit
During the year ended June 30, 2001 the Company repurchased $67.0 million principal amount of its 9.875% senior subordinated notes payable and recognized an extraordinary loss of $2.0 million (or $1.2 million, net of a benefit for income taxes). The extraordinary loss substantially represents the non-cash charge-off of a pro rata portion of the debt issuance costs previously capitalized when the notes were issued.
18
During the year ended June 30, 1999, the Company charged to operations debt issuance costs relating to certain extinguished debt and recognized a $4.3 million extraordinary loss (or $2.7 million, net of a benefit for income taxes).
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — PRO FORMA TO EXCLUDE THE ARIZONA BILTMORE RESORT & SPA
The accompanying table for the years ended June 30 (expressed in 000’s) and related discussion is set forth on a pro forma basis, which excludes the operating results from the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, which was sold in December 2000. Management believes the pro forma information, which is supplemental to the historical discussion, provides readers with a meaningful comparison to the previous year.

The increase in pro forma operating income during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily due to improved leisure and recreation business operating results arising from higher revenue and slightly improved profit margins, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense. Specifically, both consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margins improved two percentage points during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 because of growth in revenue and certain efficiencies in direct room labor costs. Additional information relating to the operating results of the Company’s business is set forth below.

Pro forma Resort Revenue
Pro forma leisure and recreation revenue totaled $289.3 million and $267.7 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The leisure and recreation business generates a diversified stream of revenue. Pro forma non-room revenue, which represented 57% of leisure and recreation revenue for each period presented, was derived from sources such as food and beverage sales, yachting and marina revenue, golf revenue, club membership fees and dues, retail sales and other resort amenities. The increase in non-room revenue during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily associated with increases in golf related revenue at Naples Grande and Grande Oaks Golf Clubs. As outlined above, the resort portfolio also yielded increases in ADR and occupancy during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the prior year periods. Increases to ADR and occupancy were primarily attributable to an expanded amenity base at the Company’s resorts coupled with certain room renovations. The decrease in available rooms nights during the year ended June 30, 2001 versus the prior year period was primarily because the prior year period included one additional room night due to leap year.
Pro forma Resort Operating Expenses
Pro forma cost of leisure and recreation services totaled $126.9 million, or 44% of pro forma revenue, during the year ended June 30, 2001, compared to $121.1 million, or 45% of pro forma revenue, during the year ended June 30, 2000. Pro forma cost of services, as a percent of pro forma revenue, decreased during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the prior year period primarily because of an increase in ADR together with room labor cost efficiencies.
Pro forma S,G&A of the leisure and recreation business totaled $70.8 million and $66.0 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and was 25% of pro forma revenue for each of the periods presented despite an increase in energy and insurance during the year ended June 30, 2001. Pro forma S,G&A of the leisure and recreation business includes, among other items, administrative payroll costs, selling and marketing expenses, energy and property costs, insurance, real estate taxes, franchise agreement fees and other administrative expenses.
Pro forma amortization and depreciation expense for the leisure and recreation business totaled $30.7 million and $25.6 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily due to the completion of several capital projects at the Boca Raton Resort and Club and Registry Resort resulting in additional depreciation expense.
Pro forma Resort Operating Income
Pro forma operating income for the leisure and recreation business totaled $61.0 million and $55.1 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase in pro forma operating income during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily the result of an
20
increase in revenue and profit margins, partially offset by additional depreciation expense associated with recently completed capital projects.
Pro forma Corporate General and Administrative Expenses
Pro forma corporate general and administrative expenses totaled $8.2 million and $8.5 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Pro forma corporate general and administrative expenses decreased during the year ended June 30, 2001 because certain non-recurring legal fees were incurred during the year ended June 30, 2000.
Pro forma EBITDA
Pro forma EBITDA represents earnings before extraordinary items, interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and discontinued operations. Pro forma EBITDA totaled $83.4 million and $72.1 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase in pro forma EBITDA during the year ended June 30, 2001 over the prior year period was primarily due to an increase in revenue and profit margins. See discussion of business segment financial performance above for additional information on comparative operating results. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (see below) are used by management and certain investors as indicators of the Company’s historical ability to service debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is intended to represent cash flows for the period. In addition, they have not been presented as alternatives to either (a) operating income (as determined by GAAP) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by GAAP) and are thus susceptible to varying calculations. EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the amount of net membership fees deferred during the periods presented. The net membership fees deferred represents the annual change in deferred revenue arising from the Premier Clubs at the Boca Raton Resort and Club, Naples Grande and Grande Oaks Golf Clubs. Net memberships deferred totaled $11.8 million and $12.5 million during the years ended June 30, 2001and 2000, respectively. The Company opened Naples Grande Golf Club in February 2000, which resulted in strong introductory membership sales during the year ended June 30, 2000.
Liquidity
Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents increased to $9.9 million at June 30, 2001, from $7.8 million at June 30, 2000 and $7.9 million at June 30, 1999. The major components of the change are discussed below.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $37.0 million, $40.0 million and $71.6 million during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in cash flow from operations during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to the year ended June 30, 2000 was primarily the result of an increase of $9.8 million in income taxes paid, partially offset by an increase in cash derived from the leisure and recreation business. The income taxes paid during 2001 included certain estimated quarterly tax payments for fiscal 2001 as well as actual income taxes incurred for fiscal 2000. Income taxes paid for fiscal 1999 were nominal because the Company had available net operating losses to offset taxable income for that year. The decrease in cash flow from operations during the year ended June 30, 2000 compared to the year ended June 30, 1999 was due to a combination of factors including having an increase in accounts receivable for the leisure and recreation business due to the timing of collection on certain group contracts and incurring an increase in cash paid for certain corporate professional fees (a significant portion of such professional fees were accrued but unpaid as of June 30, 1999).
21
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $222.3 million during the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to cash used in investing activities of $36.9 million and $115.4 million during the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The significant change was primarily the result of the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa during the year ended June 30, 2001, which yielded net proceeds to the Company of $279.0 million.
Capital expenditures totaled $60.8 million, $63.1 million and $98.5 million during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During the year ended June 30, 2001, capital spending at the Boca Raton Resort and Club commenced on new projects including an eight-story marina wing complex consisting of 112 water-view luxury guestrooms, a spa complex, a golf clubhouse and marina slips, as well as continued spending on room renovations, with 80% of the guestrooms completed. In addition, at the Boca Raton Resort and Club the Company completed a new Tuscan style restaurant and retail pavilion, which opened in November 2000. During the year ended June 30, 2001, the Company also completed a new pool/aquatic center, 6,000 square feet of additional conference space and enhancements to the beach facility and boardwalk at the Registry Resort and renovated its 296 guestrooms at the Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center.
During the year ended June 30, 2000, capital spending primarily related to the construction of a guest parking facility and commencement of a luxury guestroom renovation at the Boca Raton Resort and Club, golf related improvements at the Naples Grande golf course and the acquisition of commercial property located near the Company’s Fort Lauderdale resorts.
During the year ended June 30, 1999, capital spending related to continued development and construction at Grande Oaks Golf Club, continued construction of a 120 guestroom addition at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, the acquisition of land in Naples and Plantation, Florida and other recurring furniture, fixture and equipment improvements at the resorts.
Restricted cash totaled $500,000, $10.2 million and $31.7 million at June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The change in restricted cash primarily related to escrow accounts maintained in accordance with the terms of mortgage-note agreements, which notes were subsequently paid by the Company.
Cash used in investing activities from discontinued operations totaled $2.3 million during the year ended June 30, 2001 and $3.5 million during the year ended June 30, 1999. Cash provided by investing activities from discontinued operations totaled $8.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2000 and included a $10.5 million termination fee pursuant to the termination of the Miami Arena Contract, a portion of which was paid to vendors and outside minority interest holders. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included later herein.
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $257.3 million and $3.2 million during the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $19.6 million during the year ended June 30, 1999. Cash flows for each period primarily represent borrowings under credit facilities, net of the repayment of indebtedness (including the repurchase of senior subordinated notes) and sales/repurchases of Class A Common Stock. During the year ended June 30, 2001 a substantial amount of indebtedness was repaid, and Class A Common Stock repurchased, using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa.
Capital Resources
The Company’s capital resources are provided from both internal and external sources. The primary capital resources from internal operations include (1) room rentals, food and beverage sales, retail sales, golf revenue, tennis revenue, marina and conference services at the resorts and (2) Premier Club memberships. The primary external sources of liquidity have been the issuance of debt securities and borrowing under term loans and credit lines.

As of August 31, 2001, the Company had immediate availability of $144.7 million under its revolving credit line, which matures in April 2002. While management expects to renew/replace its existing revolving credit line upon maturity, no assurances can be given that management will be successful in doing so. As a result of the current availability under this credit line, combined with cash on hand due to the sale of the entertainment and sports business in July 2001 which is estimated to be between $67.0 million and $69.0 million and expected cash from operations, management believes the Company has sufficient funds to continue its capital maintenance and expansion plans and support on-going operations, including meeting debt service obligations as they come due.
Working Capital
Current assets exceeded current liabilities by $45.5 million at June 30, 2001. Current liabilities exceeded current assets by $28.3 million at June 30, 2000. The improvement from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001 was primarily because the Company sold the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa and received net proceeds of $279.0 million. A portion of such proceeds was used to repay indebtedness.
Recent Events
On September 11, 2001, there were terrorist attacks on New York’s two World Trace Center towers as well as the Pentagon, which involved the hijacking of four U.S. commercial aircraft. Management is currently evaluating the impact of these events on its near-term results of operations and financial condition.
Forward Looking Statements
Some of the information in this report may contain forward-looking statements. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “continue” or other similar words.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Boca Resorts, Inc.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2001
1. Nature of Operations
Boca Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) is an owner and operator of five luxury resorts located in Florida with hotels, conference facilities, golf courses, spas, marinas and private clubs. The Company’s resorts include the Boca Raton Resort and Club (Boca Raton), the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay (Naples), the Edgewater Beach Hotel (Naples), the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina (Fort Lauderdale), and the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center (Fort Lauderdale). The Company also owns and operates two championship golf courses located in Florida, Grande Oaks Golf Club in Davie and Naples Grande Golf Club in Naples.
As discussed in Note 5, the Company sold the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa on December 22, 2000. In addition, on July 25, 2001, the Company sold its entertainment and sports business, which primarily consisted of the operations of the Florida Panthers Hockey Club (the “Panthers”) and related arena management operations. Accordingly, the Company’s entertainment and sports business has been accounted for as discontinued operations and the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been restated to report separately the net assets and operating results of this discontinued operation.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries after the elimination of significant intercompany accounts and transactions.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents/Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. At June 30, 2001, restricted cash consisted of purchased guarantees (letters of credit) that ensure the Company’s payment to third parties under certain lease agreements. At June 30, 2000, restricted cash primarily consisted of escrow accounts maintained in accordance with the terms of mortgage-note agreements, which notes were subsequently paid by the Company. Concentration of credit risk and market risk associated with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered low due to the credit quality of the issuers of the financial instruments held by the Company and due to their short-term nature.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are primarily from major credit card companies and other large corporations. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its significant customers and generally does not require collateral or a significant allowance for uncollectible balances.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value and primarily consists of food, beverages, marina fuel, retail merchandise and operating supplies. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

BOCA RESORTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Premier Club Notes Receivable
Premier Club notes receivable are carried at cost. The accrual of interest income is suspended on all notes receivable when principal or interest payments are more than three months contractually past due and is not resumed until such loans become contractually current. The amount of loans more than three months contractually past due was not material at June 30, 2001. The Company performs credit evaluations of customers who finance their Premier Club membership and generally does not require additional security or establish a significant allowance for uncollectible balances.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and renewals of relatively minor items are charged to expense as incurred. Significant additions, along with interest incurred during the construction period for expansion at the Company’s resorts, are capitalized. Interest has been capitalized using the average borrowing rate of the Company. Interest capitalized for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999 totaled $1.1 million, $2.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively. Depreciation and amortization has been computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
| | | | |
| | Years |
| |
|
Building and improvements | | | 40 | |
Land improvements | | | 15 | |
Leasehold improvements | | | 5-20 | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | | | 3-7 | |
Debt Issuance Costs
Costs associated with obtaining financing have been capitalized and are amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the effective interest method) over the terms of the related debt. Debt issuance costs are included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of goodwill, which represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets of the acquired business. Goodwill is stated at amortized cost and is amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. Accumulated amortization at June 30, 2001 and 2000 totaled $3.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. The Company continually evaluates whether events and changes in circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives or recognition of an impairment loss of unamortized goodwill. The conditions that would trigger an impairment assessment of unamortized goodwill include a significant negative trend in the Company’s operating results or cash flows, a decrease in demand for the Company’s services, change in the competitive environment and other industry and economic factors. The Company measures impairment of unamortized goodwill utilizing the discounted cash flow method. The present value of those estimated cash flows is then compared to the Company’s net book value; if the book value exceeds the present value of those cash flows, the excess of the unamortized goodwill is written off. The discount rate used in determining the present value of those cash flows would be based on the Company’s weighted average cost of capital commensurate with the risk involved. As of June 30, 2001, the Company determined that there has been no impairment of goodwill.
Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The carrying value of long-lived assets is reviewed if the facts and circumstances suggest that it may be impaired. If this review indicates that long-lived assets will not be recoverable based on the undiscounted cash

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
flows of the entity acquired over the remaining amortization period, the carrying value of the long-lived assets will be reduced by the amount by which the carrying value exceeds fair value. Fair value is determined using management’s best estimate of the discounted net operating cash flows over the remaining life of the assets.
Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of Premier Club notes receivable and long-term debt approximates fair value based on discounted future cash flows. The carrying amount of the Company’s senior subordinated notes payable is $273.0 million, compared to an estimated fair value of $276.9 million, which is based on the quoted market price as of June 30, 2001 in the over-the-counter bond market. The fair value of Premier Club refundable membership fees cannot be reasonably estimated based on the uncertainty of the maturity.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue associated with room rentals, food and beverage sales and other recreational amenity use at the Company’s resort properties is recognized when services are rendered. Deferred revenue arises as a normal part of business for advance payments for resort accommodations, club membership dues and club initiation fees. Annual membership dues from the Company’s Premier Clubs are recognized ratably over the membership year. Initiation fees associated with Premier Club memberships originating after December 31, 1997 are non-refundable and are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated life of the membership. Initiation fees relating to club memberships originating prior to December 31, 1997 are fully refundable and, accordingly, are reflected as a liability captioned Premier Club refundable membership fees in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 10.
Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising expense was $5.3 million, $7.0 million and $6.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Prepaid advertising for each of the periods presented was not material.
Costs of Start-Up Activities
Pre-operating, pre-opening, research and development and organization costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. See Note 15.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. The Company has elected to account for stock option grants in accordance with APB No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and as interpreted in FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation” and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense in connection with stock option grants made to employees. See Note 11.

Earnings Per Common Share
SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share equals net income divided by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the effects of common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. Warrants totaling 325,000 for both the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were antidilutive and have been excluded. Warrants totaling 1,259,905 for the year ended June 30, 1999 were antidilutive and have been excluded. Options totaling 5,513,553, 5,135,273 and 4,357,476 for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were antidilutive and have been excluded. The following table sets forth weighted average shares used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share (in 000’s):

Shareholders’ Equity
The Company has two classes of common stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. On each matter submitted for stockholder approval each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to 10,000 votes.
In connection with the acquisition of the Boca Raton Resort and Club, the Company issued rights to the predecessor owners of the property entitling them to acquire 4,242,586 shares of Class A Common Stock at any time up through April 30, 2001 for no additional consideration. All such shares were reflected as issued in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2000 because the Company believed it was probable that all predecessor owners would exchange their interests for freely tradable Class A Common Stock of the Company. However, at June 30, 2001, shareholders’ equity has been reduced to exclude the 447,892 expired, unexercised exchange rights. Upon issuance of the shares relating to rights that were exercised, the tax effect of the book-tax bases difference resulting from the exchange is reflected as an adjustment to contributed capital in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity.
Treasury Stock
In May 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to $30 million of its outstanding Class A Common Stock over the ensuing 24 months. As of June 30, 2001, the Company had repurchased 592,766 shares of Class A Common Stock for $6.8 million. The Company accounts for repurchases of its Class A Common Stock using the cost method with common stock in treasury classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of shareholders’ equity.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income was the same as net income for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” prohibits the pooling method of accounting for business combinations and requires business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The requirements of this statement should be applied to business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 141 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets”. SFAS No. 142 addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually, or with a group of assets, should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. It also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill shall not be amortized. Goodwill shall be tested for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit. If the carrying amount of reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The provisions of this statement are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Early adoption is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001, provided that the first interim financial statements have not previously been issued. This statement is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in its financial statements at that date. Impairment losses for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that arise due to the initial application of this statement (resulting from a transitional impairment test) are to be reported as resulting from a change in accounting principle. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will early adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and will not be able to determine the ultimate impact of this statement on its results of operations or financial position until such time as the Company applies its provisions. Amortization of goodwill totaled $1.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2001, however, this is not intended to be indicative of the expected impact on the Company’s future results of operations.
SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position and will adopt such standards on July 1, 2002, as required.
3. Supplemental Cash Flow Information
Interest and Income Taxes Paid
Interest paid totaled $48.3 million, $53.1 million and $51.1 million during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Income taxes paid totaled $9.9 million, $54,000 and $380,000 during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The income taxes paid during 2001 included certain estimated quarterly tax payments for fiscal 2001 as well as actual income taxes incurred for fiscal 2000. The income taxes paid for fiscal 1999 were nominal because the Company had available net operating losses to offset taxable income for that year. See Note 15.
Non-Cash Investing and Financing Activities
The Company sold the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa in December 2000. In connection with such transaction, the buyer of the property assumed indebtedness totaling $59.4 million. The Company issued shares of Class A Common Stock totaling 50,000 (which were valued at $539,000) and 62,830 (which were valued at $550,000) in connection with business acquisitions during the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

5. Discontinued Operations and Divestiture
On July 25, 2001, the Company sold its entertainment and sports business. The purchase price for the business, which incorporated certain working capital adjustments, consisted of $83.5 million in cash, an $11.2 million secured promissory note and the assumption by the purchasers of certain off-balance sheet contingencies including a $10 million construction obligation secured by a performance bond. The net proceeds from the sale of the business after payment of disposal costs and income taxes is estimated to be between $67.0 million and $69.0 million, and the gain on disposition, which will be recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2001, is estimated to be between $23.0 million and $25.0 million. Accordingly, the Company’s entertainment and sports business has been accounted for as discontinued operations and the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been restated to report separately the net assets and operating results of this discontinued operation. Operating losses totaling $2.9 million from the measurement date through June 30, 2001 have been deferred and will be recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 2001 (the quarter in which the gain on sale is recognized). A portion of the Company’s interest expense has been allocated to discontinued operations based upon its average borrowing cost and the average funds the discontinued operations borrowed from the parent. Certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company have been allocated to discontinued operations based upon the specific identification method. Summary operating results of the discontinued operations for the year ended June 30 are as follows (in 000’s):

On December 22, 2000, the Company executed a definitive agreement and closed on the sale of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa for $335.0 million, plus certain working capital adjustments. The Company received $283.0 million in gross cash proceeds and the buyer of the property assumed $59.4 million in indebtedness. The net proceeds from the asset sale amounted to $279.0 million and was substantially used to repay indebtedness. The gain on the asset sale was nominal and is included in interest and other income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2001. The Company is contingently liable for certain litigation relating to the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa. While the results of such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that losses, if any, resulting from the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position. A portion of the Company’s interest expense has been allocated to the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa based upon the debt balance attributable to it operations.

9. Senior Subordinated Notes Payable
On April 21, 1999, the Company issued $340.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.875% senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2009 (the “Notes”) in a private placement offering (the “Offering”). The Notes were subsequently registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, in cash, on or after April 15, 2004, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. The optional redemption prices for the twelve month periods beginning April 15 are: 2004 — 104.9375%; 2005 — 103.2910%; 2006 — 101.6450% and 2007 and thereafter — 100.00%.
During the year ended June 30, 2001 the Company repurchased $67.0 million principal amount of Notes and recognized an extraordinary loss of $2.0 million (or $1.2 million, net of a benefit for income taxes). The extraordinary loss substantially represents the non-cash charge-off of a pro rata portion of the debt issuance costs previously capitalized when the Notes were issued.
Prior to April 15, 2002, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of one or more public equity offerings, at a redemption price equal to 109.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, provided that at least 65% of the Notes remains outstanding after any such redemption. The Notes are senior obligations of the Company and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company and rank senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated obligations of the Company. None of the assets of the Company secure its obligations under the Notes, and the Notes are effectively subordinated to secured indebtedness of the Company to any third party to the extent of assets serving as security.
The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Note guarantees are senior obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantors and senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantors.
The Notes contain certain covenants limiting the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make investments and other restricted payments, enter into transactions with 5% stockholders or affiliates, create liens, and sell assets. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2001. Additionally, certain asset sales or specific kinds of change of control may require the Company to offer to repurchase the Notes. In connection with the Offering, the Company charged to operations debt issuance costs relating to certain extinguished debt and recognized a $4.3 million extraordinary loss (or $2.7 million, net of a benefit for income taxes) during the year ended June 30, 1999.
10. Premier Club Refundable Membership Fees
Fully paid initiation fees associated with Premier Club memberships at the Boca Raton Resort and Club executed prior to December 31, 1997 are refundable upon the death of a member or a member’s spouse and upon the expiration of the 30-year membership term (subject to renewal at the member’s option). The fee is also refundable upon a member’s resignation from the Premier Club, but only out of the proceeds of subsequent new members to join the Premier Club following refund of all previously resigned members’ fees. If any member paying over time suspends payment, amounts paid to date are forfeited and recognized as income. Amounts forfeited to date have not been material. Premier Club refundable membership fees of approximately $57.8 million and $60.4 million at June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, have been reflected as a non-current liability in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

11. Stock Options
The Company has a stock option plan under which options to purchase shares of common stock may be granted to key employees and directors of the Company. Options granted under the plan are non-qualified and are granted at a price equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Generally, options granted will have a term of ten years from the date of grant, and will vest in increments of 25% per year over a four-year period on the annual anniversary of the date of grant.

12. Commitments and Contingencies
Capital Expenditures
At June 30, 2001, the Company had commitments outstanding for capital expenditures under purchase orders and contracts of approximately $35.5 million associated with expansion projects at the Boca Raton Resort and Club.
Leases
The Company leases the site of the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center from the City of Fort Lauderdale under an operating lease, which has a term through August 31, 2062. Under the lease agreement, the Company is required to pay annual rent equal to the greater of a percentage (4.0% through September 30, 2012 and 4.25% thereafter) of annual gross operating revenue, as defined, or a $300,000 minimum annual rent (escalating after September 2037). Rent expense under this lease totaled $891,000, $850,000 and $785,000 for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The lease agreement also requires the Company to set aside 3% of Bahia Mar’s revenue annually, as defined in the lease agreement, for the purchase, replacement and upgrade of furniture, fixtures and equipment. All such restricted funds have been spent on their required purpose through June 30, 2001.
Future minimum lease obligations under various noncancellable operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year at June 30, 2001 (including the lease described in the preceding paragraph) are as follows (in 000’s):
| | | | |
2002 | | $ | 1,976 | |
2003 | | | 1,211 | |
2004 | | | 508 | |
2005 | | | 300 | |
2006 | | | 300 | |
Thereafter | | | 16,800 | |
| | |
| |
| | $ | 21,095 | |
| | |
| |
As of June 30, 2001, the Company has two letters of credit, which secure two operating leases. The letters of credit are collateralized by certificates of deposit totaling $500,000, which mature in November 2001 and are included in restricted cash in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Litigation
The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings. However, the Company may from time to time become a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which are incidental to its business.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations, an owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real property, as well as for the costs of complying with environmental laws regulating on-going operations. The Company may be potentially liable for any such costs in connection with the ownership and operation of its properties. The Company has obtained Phase I environmental site assessments for the real property on which each of the resorts is located. In addition, Phase II environmental assessments have been conducted at several properties. Phase I assessments are intended to identify existing, potential and suspected environmental contamination and regulatory compliance concerns, and generally include historical reviews of the property, reviews of certain public records, preliminary visual investigations of the site and surrounding properties and the preparation and issuance of written reports. Phase II assessments involve the sampling of environmental media, such as subsurface soil and groundwater, to confirm whether contamination is present at areas of concern identified during the course of a Phase I assessment.
The Phase I and Phase II assessments have not revealed any environmental liability or compliance concerns that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on its business, nor is the Company aware of any such material liability or concern. Phase I and Phase II assessments cannot provide full and complete knowledge of environmental conditions and compliance matters. Therefore, there can be no assurances that: (1) material environmental liabilities or compliance concerns do not exist; (2) an identified matter that does not appear reasonably likely to be material will not result in significantly greater expenditures than is currently anticipated; or (3) there are no material environmental liabilities or compliance concerns of which the Company is unaware.
13. License and Franchise Agreements
Upon the acquisition of the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina, the Company assumed the rights of the franchise agreement with Hyatt Franchise Corporation. The franchise agreement expires in November 2014 with various early termination provisions and liquidated damages for early termination. The franchise agreement provides for payments of monthly royalty fees equal to 5.0% of gross room revenue. The franchise agreement also provides for the payment of certain Hyatt “allocable chain expenses” primarily relating to sales and marketing. Aggregate Hyatt fees and expenses amounted to $1.6 million, $1.4 million and $1.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The franchise agreement also requires maintenance of a customary reserve for replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment equal to 4.0% of gross room revenue. All such restricted funds have been spent for their required purpose through June 30, 2001.
Upon the acquisition of Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center, the Company assumed the rights of a ten-year license agreement with Radisson Hotels International, Inc. (“Radisson”). The terms of the agreement allow the Company to operate the resort using the Radisson system. Annual fees payable to Radisson pursuant to the agreement equal 5.0% of gross room sales. Fees paid to Radisson pursuant to the license agreement totaled $469,000, $469,000 and $436,000 for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

14. Related Party Transactions
The following is a summary of certain agreements and transactions between or among the Company and certain related parties. It is the Company’s policy to enter into any such transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are no less favorable than those that would be available from unaffiliated parties.
The Company pays a management fee to Huizenga Holdings, Inc., a corporation whose sole shareholder is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, H. Wayne Huizenga, equal to 1% of total revenue, excluding all NHL national television revenue, enterprise rights and expansion fees. Pursuant to the agreement, Huizenga Holdings, Inc. primarily provides certain administrative, financing, tax, investor relations and strategy related services to the Company. The Company incurred management fees of approximately $3.7 million, $4.1 million and $3.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Such management fees are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company paid Callaghan & Partners, Ltd. $448,000, $501,000 and $1.0 million for construction and development services during the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company is obligated to pay Callaghan & Partners, Ltd. 1.5% of the budgeted construction and development cost of certain approved projects. As of June 30, 2001, unpaid amounts associated with such approved projects totaled $326,000. Dennis J. Callaghan, a director of the Company, is President of Callaghan & Partners, Ltd., an entity founded by Mr. Callaghan to acquire, develop, finance, renovate and manage resorts, hotels and residential and commercial properties in the United States and abroad.
Until June 30, 2000, Leisure Management International, Inc. (“LMI”), an entity that was 50% owned by Mr. Huizenga, managed the Miami Arena under a management agreement with Decoma Miami Associates, Ltd., a company in which the Company owns a 78% interest (“Decoma”). Under the management agreement, LMI received from Decoma management fees of approximately $142,000 and $150,000 for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. On June 30, 2000, Decoma’s contract with the Miami Sports and Exhibition Authority (“MSEA”) was terminated and the Company was paid a termination fee by MSEA of $10.5 million. Following termination of Decoma’s contract with MSEA, Decoma terminated its agreement with LMI and paid LMI a termination fee of $400,000. The Company also entered into an agreement with LMI to manage the National Car Rental Center, home of the Panthers (which were sold by the Company in July 2001), and incurred management fees of approximately $205,000 and $200,000 for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Mr. Huizenga disposed of his interest in LMI’s ongoing operations in March 2000.
The Panthers had a contract with SportsChannel Florida, a Florida limited partnership, 70% of which was owned by Mr. Huizenga until January 2000, when such entity was sold. Under the terms of the contract, the Panthers granted local television broadcast and pay television rights, exclusively to SportsChannel Florida. Aggregate payments by SportsChannel Florida totaled $5.5 million ($2.5 million of which was paid before SportsChannel Florida was sold to the unrelated party) for the year ended June 30, 2000 and $3.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1999.

Realization of future tax benefits related to deferred tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income. The valuation allowance is adjusted in the period management determines it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will or will not be realized. Management has considered these factors in reaching its conclusion to release the valuation allowance during the year ended June 30, 2001.
A reconciliation between the statutory federal income tax expense relating to continuing operations and the income tax expense at the Company’s effective rate for the year ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999 is set forth below (in 000’s).

The Company’s revenue and income are seasonal in nature and are directly affected by the strength and seasonality of the tourism and leisure industry. Tourism is dependent upon weather and the traditional seasons for travel. Because of this variability in demand, the Company’s revenue fluctuates quarter-to-quarter, and revenue for the first quarter of each year can be expected to be lower than the remaining quarters. Although historically the trend in quarterly revenue for the second, third and fourth quarters of each year is generally higher than the first quarter, there can be no assurance that this will occur in future periods. Accordingly, quarterly or other interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for any quarter or for the full year.
