See Accompanying Notes to Financial Statements e) CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL INSTITUTIONAL PROPERTIES/3 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3 (the "Partnership") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of ConCap Equities, Inc. (the "General Partner"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 information to conform to the 1997 presentation. NOTE B - INVESTMENT PROPERTY ACQUIRED During 1995, the debtor stopped making note payments on the note secured by the South City Business Center. An affiliate of the General Partner was appointed receiver in September 1995, and the foreclosure proceedings were completed on February 14, 1996, at which time the Partnership assumed operations at the property. The estimated net realizable value at the time of acquisition was $4,400,000 including cash of $74,000, accounts receivable of $15,000, a security deposit liability of $72,000 which the Partnership received along with the South City investment property of approximately $4,383,000. NOTE C - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Partnership has paid property management fees based on collected gross rental revenues for property management services in each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. Property management fees of approximately $548,000 and $484,000 were paid to affiliates of the General Partner for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Partnership Agreement also provides for reimbursement to the General Partner and its affiliates for costs incurred in connection with administration of Partnership activities. Reimbursements for services of affiliates of approximately $270,000 and $295,000 were paid to the General Partner and affiliates for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. For the period of January 1, 1996, to August 31, 1997, the Partnership insured its properties under a master policy through an agency and insurer unaffiliated with the General Partner. An affiliate of the General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain financial obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the agent who placed the master policy. The agent assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the General Partner who received payments on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not significant. NOTE D - COMMITMENT The Partnership is required by the Partnership Agreement to maintain working capital reserves for contingencies of not less than 5% of Net Invested Capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Cash, tenant security deposits and investments, totaling approximately $12,101,000 were greater than the reserve requirement of approximately $3,631,000 at September 30, 1997. NOTE E - DISTRIBUTIONS The Partnership made distributions of cash generated from operations of approximately $838,000 and $4,821,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Partnership also made distributions of cash from surplus funds of approximately $6,161,000 and $2,497,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In addition, during October 1997, the Partnership distributed approximately $1,593,000 from operations and $5,408,000 from surplus funds. In April of 1997, the Partnership paid state withholding taxes of $6,000 for non-resident limited partners. This payment is reflected as a distribution to the limited partners. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Partnership's investment properties consist of eight apartment complexes and two commercial properties. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for each of the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996: Average Occupancy Property 1997 1996 Cedar Rim Apartments Renton, Washington 94% 93% City Heights Apartments Seattle, Washington 96% 95% Corporate Center Office Complex Tampa, Florida 99% 94% Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments Belleville, Michigan 92% 93% Lamplighter Park Apartments Belleview, Washington 95% 97% Park Capitol Apartments Salt Lake City, Utah 97% 98% Sandpiper Apartments St. Petersburg, Florida 96% 89% South City Business Center Chula Vista, California 90% 86% Tamarac Village Apartments Denver, Colorado 94% 94% Williamsburg Manor Apartments Cary, North Carolina 97% 94% The General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Corporate Center to current tenant expansions and several new tenants in previously vacant units. The occupancy increase at Williamsburg Manor and Sandpiper is due to interior and exterior renovations and improved market conditions. South City Business Center's occupancy increase is due to a stronger local market in 1997. The Partnership realized net income of approximately $1,508,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to approximately $732,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was approximately $434,000 compared to approximately $30,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The increase in net income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 is primarily attributable to increased rental income resulting from improved occupancy and increased rental rates at several properties. In addition, other income increased as a result of increased tenant charges at various properties as well as greater interest income earned on increased cash balances. Total revenues were positively affected by South City's revenue for the full nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the period from February 14, 1996, the date of South City's acquisition, to September 30, 1996. Also contributing to the increase in net income for the nine month period was a casualty gain of $16,000 relating to fire damage at Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments. General and administrative expenses decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, due to a decrease in professional fees and expense reimbursements. Also contributing to the increase in net income is a decrease in maintenance expense. Included in maintenance expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is approximately $457,000 of major repairs and maintenance compared to approximately $1,039,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in major repairs and maintenance is due to various rehabilitation projects in 1996 at Williamsburg Manor, Lamplighter, Cedar Rim, and City Heights. At Williamsburg Manor, exterior renovation involving siding, gutter and shutter repairs, as well as exterior painting, accounted for approximately $203,000 of the maintenance expenses. At Lamplighter, approximately $104,000 was spent on exterior painting. At Cedar Rim, 1996 expenditures included an exterior building rehabilitation project of approximately $118,000 for repairs to exterior lighting, balconies, and siding and parking lot repairs of approximately $30,000. At City Heights, $91,000 was spent on exterior painting. Partially offsetting these changes was an increase in interest expense. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to the refinancing of Tamarac Village and Lamplighter Park and new debt on Hidden Cove, Cedar Rim and City Heights, whose debt balances increased approximately $12,500,000 in November of 1996. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. At September 30, 1997, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of $11,527,000 compared to $4,398,000 at September 30, 1996. Net cash provided by operating activities increased primarily due to increased rental revenues and interest income, and decreased maintenance expense partially offset by increased interest payments, as discussed above. Net cash used in investing activities increased due to the funding of restricted escrows required by the November 1996 refinancings. Net cash used in financing activities decreased due to decreased distributions to partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to 1996. During October 1997, the Partnership distributed an additional $7,001,000 to the partners. The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the various properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership. Such assets are currently thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership. The notes payable of approximately $30,525,000 have maturity dates ranging from 2003 to 2005, at which time the individual properties will be refinanced or sold. The mortgage notes payable are nonrecourse and are secured by pledges of the respective properties. All notes require prepayment penalties if repaid prior to maturity and prohibit resale of the properties subject to existing indebtedness. Distributions of approximately $7,005,000 and $7,318,000 were made to the partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations or property sales, if any, and the availability of cash reserves. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6.
