(A California Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 ----------------------------------------------- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- The Partnership's current assets of $493,656 exceed its current liabilities of $160,975 by $332,681. This excess of current assets over current liabilities exceeds the $297,050 operating reserve requirement in the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership had a positive cash flow of $32,209 during the nine month period covered by this report. During that period the Partnership has made $150,000 in mortgage principal payments in excess of those required under the mortgage as discussed in the next paragraph. The Partnership's Bakersfield Motel is encumbered by a mortgage calling for a $108,215 balloon payment on September 11, 1997. Rather than accumulate funds to make this balloon payment, the General Partners have decided to make additional principal payments on the mortgage, thus saving on interest expense. The General Partners have also decided to suspend quarterly distributions to the Limited Partners in order to accumulate the funds necessary for these extra principal payments. The Partnership has no major commitments for capital expenditures. The Partnership has a replacement and renovation target equal to 3% of guest room revenue. During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Partnership has expended $31,671 in such expenditures ($9,020 of which was capitalized) which is equal to 2.6% of guest room revenue. The General Partners anticipate that renovation and repair expenditures will not substantially exceed 3% of guest room revenue during the current fiscal year. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - ------------------------ SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed OF, requires the Partnership to disclose information about potential impairment to the value of long-lived assets. The Partnership is not required to adopt and does not currently plan to adopt SFAS No. 121 until its fiscal year ending December 31, 1996. The Partnership does not expect to make any disclosures about impairment of long-lived assets under SFAS No. 121. -7- SUPER 8 MOTELS III, LTD. (A California Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION (Continued) SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 ----------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- The following is a comparison of the first nine months of the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995 with the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year. Occupancy Percentage 1995 1994 Current Year Current Year Quarter to Date Quarter to Date San Bernardino 56.6% 59.5% 59.9% 61.1% Bakersfield 88.0% 88.1% 87.2% 90.8% Combined 73.2% 74.6% 74.3% 76.8% Average Room Rate 1995 1994 Current Year Current Year Quarter to Date Quarter to Date San Bernardino $40.18 $40.21 $42.09 $41.38 Bakersfield $31.41 $31.04 $31.08 $31.26 Combined $34.63 $34.51 $35.29 $35.08 Total revenues decreased $46,056 (or 3.6%) for the nine month period covered by this report as compared to the previous fiscal year. The decrease in total revenue was due primarily to a $55,185 or 4.4% decrease in room revenue. The San Bernardino lodging market conditions are the least favorable in the country according to current industry trade magazines. The declines in both revenue and room rates at the Bakersfield motel are associated with a reduction in patronage by Amtrak train crews. Amtrak has reduced the crew size and number of trains at its Bakersfield facility, thus reducing the demand for rooms, and it has insisted that the Partnership match a competing bid to house its crews, thereby reducing the room rates received by the Partnership for such business from $22 to $20 per room night. The Partnership's expenses decreased $113,163 or 9.0% . The Partnership achieved the expenses reductions by a vigorous cost control program in addition to the savings from reduced occupancy. -8- SUPER 8 MOTELS III, LTD. (A California Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION (Continued) SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 ----------------------------------------------- FUTURE TRENDS - -------------- The General Partners expect that overall occupancy for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995 will be equal to or less than that achieved in 1994. The General Partners expect income for the current fiscal year to be equal to the previous fiscal year or to reflect a slight decrease. However, due to expense reductions, discussed above, the General Partners anticipate net income equal to the previous fiscal year or slightly better than that achieved in the previous fiscal year. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments which were necessary to a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. -9- PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ---------------------------- Item 1. Legal Proceedings ----------------- None Item 2.
