Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies
Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of ClubCorp, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries that are not considered variable interest entities (VIEs) and VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary (collectively, ClubCorp). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Interim presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by ClubCorp and are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from the accompanying statements. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto of ClubCorp for the year ended December 28, 2004, which are a part of ClubCorp’s 2004 Form 10-K.
In our opinion, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of ClubCorp as of June 14, 2005, and the consolidated results of operations for the twelve weeks and twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005, and cash flows for the twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations and other factors such as timing of acquisitions and dispositions of facilities.
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and interest bearing deposits in financial institutions, all of which have maturities of 90 days or less.
Restricted cash
There was $28.7 million of restricted cash at December 28, 2004 and June 14, 2005, which is comprised of letters of credit totaling $19.0 million representing collateral related to insurance policies, letters of credit totaling $6.2 million representing collateral related to debt covenants (See Note 9), and $3.5 million representing cash in escrow related to a put option on an operating lease at one of our properties. The letters of credit have one-year terms and, therefore, the related restricted cash is included in current assets.
Recent Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost will be measured based on fair value on the grant date of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service for that award. This new standard will be effective for us beginning in our first quarter of 2006. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard on our financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions”, which clarifies accounting treatment for timeshare transactions and related costs. SFAS No. 152 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We are currently in the process of evaluating the possible effects of this accounting pronouncement. We do not believe the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

ClubCorp, Inc.
Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for using Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the options is greater than or equal to the market price at the date of grant, no compensation expense is recorded. We have also adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-based Compensation” for options issued, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.”
During the twelve weeks ended June 14, 2005, in accordance with our Omnibus Stock Plan, we granted 596,410 options to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $12.50, bringing our year-to-date total to 671,410 options granted. We granted 150,000 options to purchase common stock during the twelve weeks ended June 15, 2004. Stock compensation expense related to options has not been recorded for any of the periods presented.
Effective December 29, 2004, we changed certain of our assumptions used to calculate the fair value of options granted and compensation expense. We now use an expected life of seven years (previously 10 years) and a 3% forfeiture rate (previously zero). We are also calculating compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period. Management believes these changes will more accurately reflect the value of our stock options granted and the requisite service period. These changes have been applied on a prospective basis. Had compensation cost for the option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for the options consistent with the methodology of SFAS 123, our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been changed to the following pro forma amounts (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Note 2. Variable interest entities
During 1994, we formed a joint venture with a real estate developer to acquire and develop real estate around a country club. Prior to the adoption of FIN 46R, we accounted for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method, recording a majority of the venture’s operating results. We are the general partner of the joint venture, however, we do not control a majority ownership percentage; therefore, operating decisions would have to go to arbitration in the event of a split in voting. We recorded 100% of all losses and then participated in earnings proportionally with the other partners.
The joint venture purchases virtually all the support services it requires from us and from the real estate developer under management service agreements, which expire at the completion of the development. With the adoption of FIN 46R, we consolidated the joint venture beginning with our March 23, 2004 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, as the joint venture was determined to be a variable interest entity with us as its primary beneficiary. Due to the historical net operating losses of the joint venture in excess of the partners’ equity interests of the joint venture not owned by us, no noncontrolling interests are reported in our June 14, 2005 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The investment was previously carried as a $19.8 million investment liability prior to consolidation.
The joint venture was financed by the assumption of debt of which $12.8 million is currently outstanding and is included in long-term debt, along with accrued interest of approximately $11.3 million. The majority of the joint venture’s debt is payable only out of distributable cash flow, as defined by the agreements. The notes are subordinated and junior to other liens and are collateralized by the real estate owned by the joint venture. The creditors of the joint venture do not have recourse to our other assets.
Other variable interest entries consolidated by us in conjunction with the implementation of FIN 46R include a managed golf operation and liquor pool entities associated with certain properties. The impact of consolidating these entities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Operations is not significant.

Note 4. Income tax provision
The income tax provision for the twelve weeks and twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005 differ from amounts computed by applying the U.S. Federal tax rate of 35% to income (loss) from operations before income taxes and minority interest primarily due to foreign and state income taxes, net of Federal benefit (provision), and the effect of consolidated operations of foreign and other entities not consolidated for Federal income tax purposes. In addition, for the twelve weeks and twenty-four weeks ended June 14, 2005, we fully reserved all additional tax benefits from available carryforwards of net operating losses generated during the periods and, therefore, recorded no income tax (provision) benefit related to federal income taxes. Therefore, the provisions for 2005 contain only foreign and state income taxes on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 5. Weighted average shares
The following table summarizes the weighted average number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Twelve Weeks Ended
| | Twenty-Four Weeks Ended
|
| | June 15, 2004
| | June 14, 2005
| | June 15, 2004
| | June 14, 2005
|
Weighted average shares outstanding | | 93,691,875 | | 93,248,860 | | 93,700,201 | | 93,313,970 |
| | | | |
Incremental shares from assumed conversion of options | | 890,897 | | 1,330,692 | | — | | 1,330,692 |
| |
| |
| |
| |
|
Diluted weighted average shares | | 94,582,772 | | 94,579,552 | | 93,700,201 | | 94,644,662 |
| |
| |
| |
| |
|
The diluted weighted average shares exclude the impact of the assumed conversion of options to acquire 506,400 shares of common stock for the twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004, because they would be anti-dilutive due to our net loss in the period.

Note 9. Long term debt
Under the provisions of certain of our debt agreements with Textron Financial Corporation (Textron), we are required to maintain debt service coverage ratios at both the portfolio and individual property level. Certain of these individual loans have cross-default provisions; therefore, a default on an individual loan triggers a default on the portfolio. As of June 14, 2005, the debt service coverage ratio was below the minimum level for two individual properties participating in the loan, thereby causing the entire loan ($54 million outstanding principal amount as of June 14, 2005) to be in technical default. We cured the noncompliance by obtaining letters of credit totaling $6.2 million. Additionally, we are out of compliance on two separate promissory notes with Textron related to individual properties with a combined outstanding principal amount of $20 million as of June 14, 2005. Subsequent to June 14, 2005, we paid down $17 million related to one note and received a waiver letter on the other note to bring these properties into compliance. Also, we plan to payoff, prior to their contractual maturity, the remaining balance related to the property for which we received the waiver letter as well as one additional property held individually by Textron. The total amount to be paid off is approximately $8 million. The $25 million that has or will be paid off subsequent to June 14, 2005 has been reclassified to the current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In addition to amounts reclassed to the current portion of long-term debt due to early payoffs and covenant compliance, we have approximately $55 million of unpaid principal maturing during the second quarter of 2006 that has also been reclassified as current. We are in negotiations with one of our lenders regarding a portion of this maturing debt to pay off the balance of approximately $37 million before year end 2005 and obtain a new line of credit.
Note 10. Segment reporting
Our operations are organized into three principal business segments according to the type of facility or service provided: country club and golf facilities, business and sports clubs and resorts. We have determined that the operations of these three segments have similar economic characteristics and meet the criteria which permit the operations to be aggregated into these reportable segments. The primary sources of revenue for all segments are membership revenues, consisting of dues, fees and deposits, and food and beverage sales. Additionally, country club and golf facilities and resorts have significant golf operations revenue and resorts have significant lodging revenue.
Country club and golf facilities operations consist of private country clubs, golf clubs and public golf facilities. Private country clubs provide at least one 18-hole golf course and various other recreational amenities that are open only to members and their guests. Golf clubs provide both private and public golf play and usually offer fewer other recreational amenities. Public golf facilities are open to the public and generally provide the same services as golf clubs.
Business and sports club operations consist of business clubs, business/sports clubs and sports clubs. Business clubs provide a setting for dining, business or social entertainment. Sports clubs provide a variety of recreational facilities and business/sports clubs provide a combination of the amenities available at business clubs and sports clubs. All amenities offered above are available only to members and their guests.
Resorts offer a wide variety of amenities including golf courses, lodging and conference facilities, dining areas and other recreational facilities. Resorts are open to the public and offer optional membership.
Other operations and services consist of real estate operations, corporate overhead and intercompany eliminations made in the consolidation between corporate services and other operating segments. Real estate operations are comprised of residential real estate development and sales, primarily in areas adjacent to golf facilities. The majority of other operating revenues is provided from real estate sales.
We evaluate segment performance and allocate resources based on each segment’s EBITDA. We also use EBITDA to monitor our property-level and overall performance. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA for all periods presented has been calculated using this definition. EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to, or a better indicator of, operating income or loss, is not based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and is not necessarily a measure of our cash flow or ability to fund our cash needs. Our measurements of EBITDA may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other companies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
ClubCorp, Inc. (referred to as ClubCorp®, the Company, we, us and our throughout this document) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware that, through its subsidiaries, owns and operates premier golf and business clubs and destination golf resorts. As of June 14, 2005, we operated 100 country clubs, golf clubs and public golf facilities, three destination golf resorts and 65 business, sports and business/sports clubs in 27 states, Washington D.C. and three foreign countries. Marquee resorts and clubs in our portfolio include Pinehurst® Resort and Country Club in Pinehurst, North Carolina, The Homestead® Resort in Hot Springs, Virginia, Barton Creek Resort and Country Club in Austin, Texas, Firestone® Country Club in Akron, Ohio, Mission Hills® Country Club near Palm Springs, California, and The City Club on Bunker Hill in Los Angeles, California.Golf Digest,Golf Travel and other golf industry publications have consistently ranked several of our approximately 150 golf courses and destination golf resorts among the best in the United States.
Our operations are organized into three principal business segments: country club and golf facilities, resorts, and business and sports clubs. Other operations that are not assigned to a principal business segment include our real estate operations and our corporate services. Our primary sources of revenue include membership dues, membership fees and deposits, food and beverage operations, golf operations and lodging.
Our predecessor corporation was organized in 1957 under the name Country Clubs, Inc. All references to us also include Country Clubs, Inc. and its successor corporations. For purposes of this document, unless otherwise indicated, references to us also include our various subsidiaries. However, we and each of our subsidiaries are careful to maintain separate legal existence, and general references to us should not be interpreted in any way to reduce the legal distinctions and separateness between subsidiaries or between us and our subsidiaries.
There is currently no public market for our common stock. We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Section 15(d) thereof, because we filed a registration statement on Form S-1, which became effective October 24, 1994, pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement registered participation interests in the ClubCorp Stock Investment Plan (the “Plan”) and our common stock, at $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), to be sold to the Plan. The Plan was amended and restated on January 1, 1999, to become the ClubCorp Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Amended Plan”).
Our consolidated financial statements are presented on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the last Tuesday of December, with the first three quarters consisting of 12 weeks each and the fourth quarter consisting of 16 or 17 weeks. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005 should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Critical Accounting Policies
For a discussion of our critical accounting policies refer to Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004.
Results of Operations
We analyze operating results and manage our business segments using the following concepts and definitions:
We employ “same store” analysis techniques for a variety of management purposes. By our definition, facilities are evaluated yearly and considered “same store” once they have been fully operational for one year. Developing facilities and divested facilities are not classified as same store; however, facilities held for sale and held and used are considered same store until they are divested. This distinction between developing and same store facilities allows us to separately analyze the operating results of our established and new facilities. We believe this approach provides an effective analysis tool because it allows us to assess the results of our core operating strategies by tracking the performance of our same store facilities without
14
the distortions that would be caused by the inclusion of developing properties. Facilities divested during a period are removed from the same store classification for all periods presented. We analyze membership and lodging data on a same store basis as well, as it is not distorted by divestitures and we believe it provides a clearer picture of trends in our continuing operations.
Operating revenues are comprised mainly of revenues from dues income, golf, food and beverage and lodging, as well as the revenues recognized from membership deposits and fees. All revenue sources are recognized in the period earned, which is generally at the time of sale or when the service is provided. Operating expenses include payroll and related expenses, other fees and expenses and rent. All operating costs are expensed as incurred.
We evaluate segment performance and allocate resources based on each segment’s EBITDA. We also use EBITDA to monitor our property-level and overall performance. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to, or a better indicator of, operating income or loss, is not based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and is not necessarily a measure of our cash flow or ability to fund our cash needs. Our measurement of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. See Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of this measure to our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
12 Weeks Ended June 15, 2004 Compared to 12 Weeks Ended June 14, 2005
Consolidated Operations – Continuing Operations
Operating revenues increased in all three operating divisions – country club and golf facilities, resorts and business and sports clubs – ending the second quarter at a consolidated total of $256.0 million, an improvement of 8% over second quarter 2004. Country club and golf facilities operating revenue increased 4% over 2004, with the most significant contributions in dues income and food and beverage revenue. These increases were partially offset by decreases in membership fees and deposits. Resorts operating revenue increased 20% over 2004 primarily related to Pinehurst hosting the 2005 U.S. Open and increased occupancy at Barton Creek. Business and sports clubs operating revenue increased 4% over 2004 primarily due to food and beverage private party revenue.
Operating costs and expenses for country club and golf facilities, resorts and business and sports clubs generally increased as a result of variable costs related to increased operating revenues. Country club and golf facilities operating costs and expenses primarily increased in food and beverage and golf operations offset by a decrease in repair and maintenance costs. Resorts operating costs and expenses primarily increased in golf operations and retail. Business and sports clubs operating costs and expenses primarily increased in food and beverage operations.
Operating income for country club and golf facilities reflected improved margins in food and beverage operations offset by decreased margins in golf operations due to increased costs for golf course maintenance coupled with fewer rounds played. Resorts operating income reflected improved margins in golf operations, lodging and retail at Pinehurst and Barton Creek offset by decreases at The Homestead. Business and sports clubs operating income reflected improved food and beverage margins.
Consolidated Operations - Discontinued Operations

Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 for same store country club and golf facilities primarily due to increased membership dues and food and beverage revenues. Membership dues increased $1.9 million or 4.0% as a result of a dues price increase in early 2005. Food and beverage a la carte and private party revenues increased $0.7 million or 4.9% and $0.5 million or 3.5%, respectively, as a result of an increase in volume and pricing. Golf revenues have remained relatively flat due to an increase in green fees and cart fees offset by a decrease in rounds played.
Segment EBITDA increased from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 for same store country club and golf facilities as a result of increased operating revenues, offset by a related increase in operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses offset the majority of our revenue increases due to inflationary increases as well as increased spending on golf course maintenance. Operating margins for food and beverage improved when comparing second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 due to increased volume while golf operating margins decreased. Although golf revenues have increased slightly, expenses increased at a greater rate due primarily to golf course maintenance costs. These costs are primarily covered by our dues price increase. Depreciation and amortization increased slightly from $11.1 million for second quarter 2004 to $11.4 million for second quarter 2005.
Discontinued Operations. The periods ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005 include one managed property divested in 2004 and one property currently held for sale in discontinued operations.

Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 for same store resorts primarily due to increased revenues at Pinehurst principally in merchandise sales, ticket sales and rental of corporate hospitality tents during the hosting of the 2005 U.S. Open. The 2005 U.S. Open week is seven days long with two of the days falling in our second quarter and the other five days falling in our third quarter. In addition, higher occupancy and revenue per occupied room at Pinehurst resulted in increased lodging and retail revenues. Barton Creek increased operating revenues 10.0% from second quarter 2004 compared to second quarter 2005 primarily due to increased occupancy which has led to improved food and beverage and lodging revenues. The Homestead operating revenues decreased 11.8% from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 due to a decrease in occupancy in a highly competitive market.
Segment EBITDA improved from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 for same store resorts primarily due to profits generated from the 2005 U.S. Open at Pinehurst. In addition, the operating margins for lodging and retail improved at Pinehurst. Barton Creek had improved operating margins in food and beverage, golf operations and lodging when comparing second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005. The Homestead operating margins decreased for food and beverage and lodging due to the decrease in occupancy.

Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 at same store business and sports clubs primarily due to increased food and beverage private party revenues and membership dues. Food and beverage private party revenues increased $1.1 million or 7.3% due to an increase in both volume and pricing. Membership dues increased $0.6 million or 2.6% primarily due to a dues price increase in early 2005.
Segment EBITDA increased at same store business and sports clubs from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 due to increased revenue partially offset by a related increase in operating costs and expenses, primarily food and beverage costs. Food and beverage margins improved when comparing second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005. Depreciation and amortization decreased from $2.3 million for second quarter 2004 to $2.0 million for second quarter 2005.
Discontinued Operations. The periods ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005 include four properties divested in 2004 and one property currently held for sale in discontinued operations.
Other Operations and Services – Continuing Operations
Other operations and services consist primarily of real estate operations and our corporate services. Revenues increased primarily due to fees we receive from third-party developers based on a percentage of their real estate sales.
Operating loss from other operations and services improved from second quarter 2004 to second quarter 2005 primarily due to revenue increases mentioned above partially offset by increased insurance costs related to higher claims and the impairment of our investment in a consulting company. During the second quarter of 2004, we accrued $4.4 million related to the potential settlement of an outstanding lawsuit related to one of our former properties.

Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased when comparing the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 for same store country club and golf facilities primarily due to increased membership dues and food and beverage revenues. Membership dues increased $4.1 million or 4.4% as a result of a dues price increase. Food and beverage revenues increased $1.2 million or 2.6% due to increased volume and pricing. Golf revenues have remained relatively flat due to an increase in green fees and cart fees offset by a decrease in rounds played. Paid rounds decreased primarily due to heavy rains on the West coast early in the year.
Segment EBITDA increased from the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 for same store country club and golf facilities as a result of increased operating revenues, partially offset by a related increase in operating costs and expenses. Operating costs and expenses offset the majority of our revenue increases as the clubs had decreased activity in 2005 but incurred increased costs due to inflation increases as well as increased spending on golf course maintenance. The increase in costs is primarily covered by our dues price increase. Food and beverage operating margins have stabilized after a very slow start to the year. Depreciation and amortization increased slightly from $22.6 million for the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to $22.9 million for the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005.

Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased when comparing the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 for same store resorts. The primary reason for the increase is merchandise sales, ticket sales and rental of corporate hospitality tents during Pinehurst’s hosting of the 2005 U.S. Open. The 2005 U.S. Open week is seven days long with two of the days falling in our second quarter and the other five days falling in our third quarter. In addition, food and beverage and lodging revenues increased at Pinehurst and Barton Creek. Food and beverage a la carte and private party revenues increased a combined $1.1 million or 3.9% as a result of higher occupancy and spending by social guests during 2005 at Pinehurst and Barton Creek. A la carte revenues were mainly driven by higher occupancy rates while private party revenues had a significant increase in check average. Lodging revenues increased $1.7 million or 7.7% as a result of increased room nights and higher average room rates from the prior year at Pinehurst and Barton Creek.
Segment EBITDA improved from the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 for same store resorts due to profits generated from the 2005 U.S. Open at Pinehurst. In addition, the operating margins for food and beverage, lodging and retail improved at Pinehurst. Barton Creek had improved operating margins in food and beverage and lodging. Lodging expenses are more fixed in nature and so the increased lodging revenues had a direct effect on our net income contributing an additional $1.4 million. Depreciation and amortization decreased slightly from $7.6 million for the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to $7.5 million for the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005.

(1) | Excludes intercompany consulting and support fees of $4.8 million and $6.0 million for Same Store and Total, respectively in the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005. |
Continuing Operations. Total operating revenues increased when comparing the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 at same store business and sports clubs primarily due to increased food and beverage private party revenues and membership dues. Food and beverage private party revenues increased $2.0 million or 7.4% due to an increase in both volume and pricing. Membership dues increased $1.5 million or 3.3% primarily due to an increase in members as well as a dues price increase in early 2005.
Segment EBITDA increased at same store business and sports clubs from the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 due to increased revenue partially offset by a related increase in operating costs and expenses, primarily food and beverage costs. Food and beverage margins improved when comparing 2004 to 2005. Depreciation and amortization decreased from $4.7 million for the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to $4.0 million for the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005.
Discontinued Operations. The periods ended June 15, 2004 and June 14, 2005 include four properties divested in 2004 and one property currently held for sale in discontinued operations.
Other Operations and Services – Continuing Operations
Other operations and services consist primarily of real estate operations and our corporate services. Revenues increased primarily due to fees we receive from third-party developers based on a percentage of their real estate sales.
Operating loss from other operations and services improved from the 24 weeks ended June 15, 2004 to the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005 primarily due to revenue increases mentioned above as well as a rebate of previously incurred costs partially offset by increased insurance costs related to higher claims and the impairment of our investment in a consulting company. During the second quarter 2004, we accrued $4.4 million related to the potential settlement of an outstanding lawsuit related to one of our former properties.

Seasonality of Demand; Fluctuations in Quarterly Results
Our quarterly results fluctuate as a result of a number of factors. Usage of our country club and golf facilities and resorts declines significantly during the first and fourth quarters, when colder temperatures and shorter days reduce the demand for golf and golf-related activities. Our business facilities generate a disproportionately greater share of their yearly revenues in the fourth quarter, which includes the holiday and year-end party season. In addition, the fourth quarter consists of 16 or 17 weeks of operations and the first, second and third quarters consist of 12 weeks. As a result of these factors, we usually generate a disproportionate share of our revenues in the second, third, and fourth quarters of each year and have lower revenues and profits in the first quarter. The timing of purchases, sales, leases of facilities, or divestitures, has also caused and may cause our results of operations to vary significantly in otherwise comparable periods. In addition, our results can be and have been affected by non-seasonal and severe weather patterns.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary goal as it relates to liquidity and capital resources is to attain and retain the right level of debt and cash to maintain our core properties, fund expansions at our current properties, and be poised for external growth in the marketplace. During the last few years, our focus has been on strengthening our cash position and refinancing and reducing our debt in order to support these goals. Our debt was refinanced in 2003 and has been paid down to $700 million as of June 14, 2005. We have paid down approximately $12 million since December 28, 2004.
Historically, we have financed our operations and cash needs primarily through cash flows from operations, debt and, to a lesser extent, proceeds from divestitures. We anticipate using cash flow from operations in 2005 principally to fund planned capital replacement expenditures, to repay debt and to build cash reserves. We also expect to use our cash flow in 2005 to grow and expand our business through a combination of improvements and expansions of existing facilities, on which we have spent approximately $29 million year-to-date. Based on our current projections, we believe our current assets and cash flow from operations are sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and operating needs for the next 12 months as well as support our anticipated capital expenditures.
Debt
The majority of our outstanding debt at June 14, 2005 was obtained as a result of a major refinancing that took place during 2003. The refinancings resulted in mortgage portfolios which had a combined principal amount of approximately $658 million, including both fixed and variable rate portions. The combined refinancings were comprised of first mortgages on 40 properties and increased borrowings on two existing mortgage loans (see Note 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).
Under the provisions of certain of our debt agreements with Textron Financial Corporation (Textron), we are required to maintain debt service coverage ratios at both the portfolio and individual property level. Certain of these individual loans have cross-default provisions; therefore, a default on an individual loan triggers a default on the portfolio. As of June 14, 2005, the debt service coverage ratio was below the minimum level for two individual properties participating in the loan, thereby causing the entire loan ($54 million outstanding principal amount as of June 14, 2005) to be in technical default. We cured the noncompliance by obtaining letters of credit totaling $6.2 million. Additionally, we are out of compliance on two separate promissory notes with Textron related to individual properties with a combined outstanding principal amount of $20 million as of June 14, 2005. Subsequent to June 14, 2005, we paid down $17 million related to one note and received a waiver letter on the other note to bring these properties into compliance. Also, we plan to payoff, prior to their contractual maturity, the remaining balance related to the property for which we received the waiver letter as well as one additional property held individually by Textron. The total amount to be paid off is approximately $8 million. The $25 million that has or will be paid off subsequent to June 14, 2005 has been reclassified to the current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In addition to amounts reclassed to the current portion of long-term debt due to early payoffs and covenant compliance, we have approximately $55 million of unpaid principal maturing during the second quarter of 2006 that has also been reclassified as current. We are in negotiations with one of our lenders regarding a portion of this maturing debt to pay off the balance of approximately $37 million before year-end 2005 and obtain a new line of credit.
23
Cash and Cash Flow
As a result of our debt refinancing, we no longer have a line of credit. Consequently, we maintain a higher cash balance on hand to cover basic working capital requirements. Our unrestricted cash position was $116 million as of June 14, 2005 as compared to $96 million at December 28, 2004. As previously mentioned, we are in negotiations to pay off the balance of one of our property mortgages before year-end 2005 and obtain a new line of credit which would reduce our outstanding debt and decrease the cash balance on our balance sheet.
Our cash flow from operations was $60.5 million for the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005, an increase of $15.8 million over 2004. In addition to our daily operating transactions, a key component of our annual operating cash comes from our membership programs. Membership deposits and fees represent advance initiation deposits for the right to become a member. Membership deposits are generally not refundable until a fixed number of years (generally 30 years) after the date of acceptance as a member while membership fees are not refundable. Cash from deposits is used to fund our normal operations. Revenue recognition of these deposits is deferred and amortized. In recent years, we have increasingly allowed new members to defer a portion of the payment of fees and deposits as an incentive for them to join. Although this practice adversely affects the current amount of cash received for fees and deposits, it is subsequently offset through the receipt of recurring membership dues and other revenues received from these members.
We utilize cash to fund operations, maintain our properties, pay down our debt and related interest, and, to a limited extent, buy back company stock. For the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005, we reduced debt by nearly $12 million and increased our cash and cash equivalents by approximately $20 million. For the remainder of 2005, we are considering additional investments in expanding our existing properties or acquiring new properties as well as prepaying or refinancing portions of our debt. We are in negotiations with one of our lenders regarding a possible refinancing that will decrease interest rates while extending the maturity date.
Capital Spending
The nature of our business requires us to invest a significant amount of capital in our existing properties to maintain them. For the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005, we expended approximately $27 million in maintenance capital, and we anticipate spending approximately $68 million in fiscal 2005 for maintenance capital.
In addition to maintaining our properties, we also spend discretionary capital to expand existing properties and to enter into new business opportunities. Capital expansion funding totaled more than $2 million for the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005.
Risks
We believe that we have sufficient and stable funds to allow us to operate our business for the next 12 months as well as evaluate growth opportunities during 2005 and beyond. However, the occurrence of any of the following events might limit our ability to fund operations or provide adequate capital funding:
• | | Lack of compliance with debt covenants – currently our defaults on the Textron note are covered by waivers and/or letters of credit. However, should operations cause adverse results at one or a group of properties, we could be put in a position of having to pay down debt or secure additional financing. |
• | | Exercise of the limited put right by our ESOP – As a means of providing liquidity to the trustees of the Amended Plan, we have provided the trustees a limited put right (the “Redemption Right”) to cause us to redeem common stock, held in trust on behalf of the Amended Plan, at the most recent appraised fair market value as necessary, in the event the trust does not have adequate resources, to meet the following requirements: (1) to fund a participant’s distribution in cash, (2) to diversify a participant’s account in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(28), (3) to pay expenses incurred by the trustees, and (4) to comply with directions from the plan administrator. The Redemption Right has never been exercised by the Amended Plan. We do not expect that the Redemption Right will be exercised to a significant extent in 2005, but if it is, we could be required to repurchase shares of common stock. |
• | | Exercise of certain rights by our third party investor – During 1999, we sold 9,375,000 shares of common stock and warrants to acquire 1,012,500 shares of common stock to The Cypress Group. Beginning in October 2004, we are |
24
obligated under certain defined conditions to offer to repurchase a portion of their outstanding shares if we are below a defined leverage ratio. Based on the calculation, we were above the stated leverage ratio and were not required to offer to repurchase any shares during 2004. Furthermore, based on expected future operations, we do not anticipate falling below the stated leverage ratio level until at least October 2006. However, if our actual future operating results differ materially from expectations, we could fall below the leverage ratio before October 2006 and could be required to offer to repurchase a portion of their shares of common stock.
• | | Natural disaster or catastrophic events - Events out of our control could cause significant operational implications and/or an inability to obtain financing. |
We do not anticipate any of the above situations occurring. Additionally, these risks are somewhat mitigated due to the fact that a significant portion of our capital expansions and new growth spending is discretionary. However, we cannot ensure you that these events will not occur.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
During the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2005, there were no material changes outside of the normal course of business to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about contractual obligations, commitments, contingent liabilities and off-balance sheet arrangements previously reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004. See Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments” in the Form 10-K for December 28, 2004 for a detailed discussion.
Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results and the Accuracy of Our Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact should be considered “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions, including statements that include projections of, or expectations about, earnings, revenues or other financial items, statements about our plans and objectives for future operations, statements concerning proposed new products or services, statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, statements concerning our expectations regarding the attraction and retention of members and guests, statements about market risk and statements underlying any of the foregoing. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes,” “estimates,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negative thereof or other similar words. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations or any of our forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Actual results and developments are likely to be different from, and may be materially different from, those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, some of which are summarized in this section and in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004.
Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain members at our clubs and maintain or increase usage of our facilities. We have experienced varying levels of membership enrollment and attrition rates and, in certain areas, decreased levels of usage of our facilities during our operating history. Although management devotes substantial efforts to ensuring that members and guests are satisfied, many of the factors affecting club membership and facility usage are beyond our control, including weather conditions, general economic conditions, changes in demand for golf and private club services and changes in the Federal tax laws. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain or increase membership or facility usage. Significant periods where attrition rates exceed enrollment rates, or where facilities’ usage is below historical levels would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Other factors that may affect our operating results include, but are not limited to, our ability to obtain external financing, the actions of our competitors, changes in labor costs, the timing and success of acquisitions and dispositions, changes in law, future terrorist attacks on U.S. targets, prolonged U.S. military efforts with Iraq and/or other nations, or other related international geopolitical uncertainties.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost will be measured based on fair value on the grant date of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service for that award. This new standard will be effective for us beginning in our first quarter of 2006. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard on our financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions”, which clarifies accounting treatment for timeshare transactions and related costs. SFAS No. 152 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We are currently in the process of evaluating the possible effects of this recently issued accounting pronouncement. We do not believe the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
There were no material changes to the disclosure on this matter made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report in ensuring that all information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities Exchange Commission.
Changes in Internal Controls
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the twelve weeks ended June 14, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
