The effect of FAS No. 130 on the Company's interim financial statements is to present in the statement of income, unrealized gains on marketable securities net of income taxes, which in periods prior to 1998 had been reported as annual adjustment directly to stockholders' equity. The balance sheets, statements of income and comprehensive income, and statements of cash flow at June 30, 2000 and 1999 and the periods then ended are not audited but reflect all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of the periods shown. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The Company, an Iowa corporation, is engaged principally in the development of commercial real estate for lease to qualified tenants. On March 20, 2000 the Company sold its Fayette, Iowa GTE Telephone Service Center Building to Upper Iowa University. The GTE lease expired April 30, 2000 and the Company retained the monthly rental through lease expiration. The property's fair market value of $185,000 was determined by MAI appraisal dated March 1, 2000. The property was sold for $50,000 cash, and the remaining $135,000 fair market value was gifted to the University. On May 1, 2000 the Company sold its Chariton, Iowa GTE Telephone Service Center Building to Chariton Community School District. The GTE lease expired April 30, 2000. The property's fair market value of $320,000 was determined by MAI appraisal dated March 27, 2000. The property was sold for $150,000 cash, and the remaining $170,000 fair market value was gifted to the School District. At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held May 19, 2000, the Company declared a $0.14 per share dividend to be paid July 28, 2000 to stockholders of record June 30, 2000. The dividend amounts to $58,289. Operating Results Lease revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 amounted to $2,243,000 compared to $2,135,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $108,000 or 5.1%. The Company's convenience stores accounted for approximately $120,000 of the increase with the addition of the Olathe, Kansas and Lee's Summit Missouri stores in December 1999. Lease revenues from two of the Company's three garden centers declined $20,000 in the first six months from their six month level in 1999 after releasing them to a new tenant in October 1999. The Company sold its two GTE Telephone Service Centers in 2000 earning $21,000 less in lease revenues in the current period compared to the first six months of 1999. Contingent rentals based on sales overages increased $29,000 in the first six months over the same period in 1999. Investment income including gains on sale of marketable securities were approximately $30,000 in the first six months of 2000 compared to $79,000 in the same period in 1999. The Company recorded gains of $300,000 during the first six months of 2000 from the sale of its two GTE Telephone Service Centers. The gains were based on fair market values totaling $505,000 for the two buildings as determined by MAI appraisals. The properties were sold for $200,000 cash with the remaining fair market value of $305,000 gifted to the purchasers. See management's discussion and analysis above. Total expenses for the first six months of 2000 were $1,182,000 compared to $962,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase was primarily due to donations of $305,000 recorded in connection with the sale of the Company's two GTE Telephone Service Centers noted above. Depreciation and interest expense, two key figures for the Company, declined $49,000 and $48,000 respectively, in the first six months of 2000 from the same period in 1999. Although interest rates were higher during the first six months of 2000 than the same period in 1999 (average rate of 8.875% for 2000 compared to 7.500% for 1999), the Company had an average of $2,205,000 less borrowed on its three credit lines and mortgage in the six months ended June 30, 2000 then it did during the same period in 1999. Other general and administrative expenses (excluding donations) led by compensation expense increased $12,000 or 4.8% in the first six months of 2000 over the same period in 1999. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $876,000 compared to $788,000 for the same period in 1999, a increase of $88,000 or $0.23 per share. Liquidity As of June 30, 2000 the Company's main source of liquidity consisted of $55,000 in cash, marketable securities having a market value of approximately $1,784,000 and a $4,125,000 remaining loan balance available on three lines of credit with a local bank. In addition, the Company owns unencumbered real estate having an aggregate depreciated cost of approximately $14,000,000. Management believes that its cash flow from operations and other potential sources of cash will be sufficient to finance current and projected operations. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION.
