Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The General Partner of the Partnership is HCW General Partner Ltd., whose sole general partner is IH, Inc. (the "Managing General Partner"), an affiliate of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. In the opinion of the Managing General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. Segment Reporting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. As defined in SFAS No. 131, the Partnership has only one reportable segment. The Managing General Partner believes that segment-based disclosures will not result in a more meaningful presentation than the financial statements as currently presented. Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for (i) certain payments to affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership. The following transactions with the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000: 2001 2000 (in thousands) Property management fees (included in operating expenses) $ 26 $ 25 Asset management fees (included in general and administrative expenses) 32 36 Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in general and administrative expenses) 19 12 Affiliates of the Managing General Partner are entitled to receive 5% of gross receipts from the Registrant's residential property for providing property management services. The Registrant paid to such affiliates approximately $26,000 and $25,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received reimbursement of asset management fees amounting to approximately $32,000 and $36,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $19,000 and $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 5,028 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 32.03% of the outstanding units as of March 31, 2001. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will make one or more additional offers to acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or in exchange for units in the operating partnership of AIMCO. Under the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters, which would include without limitation, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood vote the Units it acquired in a manner favorable to the interest of the Managing General Partner because of its affiliation with the Managing General Partner. Note C - Distributions During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Partnership declared and paid a distribution of approximately $570,000 (approximately $569,000 to the limited partners or $36.25 per limited partnership unit) consisting of approximately $23,000 of cash from operations (approximately $22,000 to the limited partners or $1.40 per limited partnership unit) and approximately $547,000 to the limited partners from the remaining proceeds from the financing of Lewis Park Apartments ($34.85 per limited partnership unit). During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Partnership declared and paid a distribution of approximately $1,700,000 ($107.47 per limited partnership unit) consisting of $627,000 of cash from operations and $1,073,000 from the sale of Highland Professional Tower. The limited partners received approximately $1,687,000 and the general partner received approximately $13,000. Subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Partnership declared and paid distributions of approximately $130,000 (approximately $127,000 paid to the limited partners or $8.09 per limited partnership unit) from operations. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including changing market conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed in the disclosures contained in this Form 10-QSB and the other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Registrant from time to time. The discussion of the Registrant's business and results of operations, including forward-looking statements pertaining to such matters, does not take into account the effects of any changes to the Registrant's business and results of operation. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those identified herein. The Partnership's investment property consists of one apartment complex located in Carbondale, Illinois. The average occupancy of the property for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was 86% and 89%, respectively. The Managing General Partner attributes the decrease in occupancy to decreased enrollment at the local university. Results of Operations The Partnership realized a net loss of approximately $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to net income of approximately $119,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to an increase in total expenses and a slight decrease in total revenue. Total revenue decreased due to a decrease in rental revenue at Lewis Park Apartments. Rental revenue decreased due to a decrease in occupancy slightly offset by an increase in average rental rates. Total expenses increased primarily due to an increase in interest and operating expenses. Interest expense increased due to the issuance of a mortgage note payable during August 2000 on Lewis Park Apartments as discussed below. Operating expense increased due to an increase in salaries and related employee benefits at the investment property. Included in general and administrative expenses at March 31, 2001 and 2000, are management reimbursements to the Managing General Partner allowed under the Partnership Agreement. In addition, cost associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement are also included. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment property to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Registrant from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the Managing 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 Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. Liquidity and Capital Resources At March 31, 2001, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $369,000 as compared to approximately $976,000 at March 31, 2000. Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $783,000 from the Partnership's year ended December 31, 2000, due to approximately $598,000 of cash used in financing activities, approximately $4,000 of cash used in investing activities and approximately $181,000 of cash used in operating activities. Cash used in financing activities consisted of distributions paid to the partners and, to a lesser extent, principal payments on the mortgage encumbering Lewis Park Apartments. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts. 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 property to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal, state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. Capital improvements planned for the Partnership's property are detailed below. Lewis Park Apartments During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Partnership completed approximately $4,000 of capital improvements at Lewis Park, consisting primarily of miscellaneous improvements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership evaluated the capital improvement needs of the property for the year. The amount budgeted is approximately $65,000, consisting primarily of air conditioning unit replacements, appliance replacements, and carpet and vinyl replacement. Additional improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property. The additional capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations or from Partnership reserves. To the extent that such budgeted capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term. The Registrant's current assets are thought to be sufficient for any short-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness of approximately $5,444,000 is amortized over 20 years with a maturity date of September 1, 2020. The Managing General Partner will attempt to refinance this indebtedness and/or sell the property prior to its maturity date. If the property cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the Registrant may risk losing the property through foreclosure. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Partnership declared and paid a distribution of approximately $570,000 (approximately $569,000 to the limited partners or $36.25 per limited partnership unit) consisting of approximately $23,000 of cash from operations (approximately $22,000 to the limited partners or $1.40 per limited partnership unit) and approximately $547,000 to the limited partners from the remaining proceeds from financing of Lewis Park Apartments ($34.85 per limited partnership unit). During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Partnership declared and paid a distribution of approximately $1,700,000 ($107.47 per limited partnership unit) consisting of $627,000 of cash from operations and $1,073,000 from the sale of Highland Professional Tower. The limited partners received approximately $1,687,000 and the general partner received approximately $13,000. Subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Partnership declared and paid distributions of approximately $130,000 (approximately $127,000 paid to the limited partners or $8.09 per limited partnership unit) from operations. The Partnership's distribution policy is reviewed on a quarterly basis. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, the availability of cash reserves, and the timing of debt refinancing and/or a property sale. There can be no assurance that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital improvement expenditures, to permit any additional distributions to its partners during the remainder of 2001 or subsequent periods. In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 5,028 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 32.03% of the outstanding units as of March 31, 2001. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will make one or more additional offers to acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or in exchange for units in the operating partnership of AIMCO. Under the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters, which would include without limitation, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood vote the Units it acquired in a manner favorable to the interest of the Managing General Partner because of its affiliation with the Managing General Partner.
