See Accompanying Notes to Financial Statements e) RIVERSIDE PARK ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note A - Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Riverside Park Associates Limited Partnership (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. 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 Winthrop Financial Associates, A Limited Partnership (the "General Partner" or "WFA"). NHP Management Company ("NHP"), the associate general partner of the General Partner and an affiliate of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust, has the right to cause the General Partner to take such action as it deems advisable with respect to the Partnership. In the opinion of the 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, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 balances to conform to the 2002 presentation. Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on NHP and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for certain payments to affiliates for services based on a percentage of revenue and an annual partnership and investor service fee of $110,000 subject to a 6% annual increase. During the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, affiliates of NHP were entitled to receive 4% of gross receipts from the Partnership's investment property for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $140,000 and $150,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which are included in operating expenses. Affiliates of NHP were eligible to receive reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $365,000 and $316,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which are included in general and administrative expenses, investment properties, and due to affiliates. Included in these amounts are fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of NHP of approximately $245,000 and $178,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The construction management service fees are calculated based on a percentage of current additions to investment property. At March 31, 2002 approximately $182,000 was owed to affiliates for unpaid reimbursements. Beginning in 2001, the Partnership began insuring its property up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its property above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $138,000 and $127,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration. Note C - Contingencies The Partnership is unaware of any pending or outstanding litigation that is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business. 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 Partnership from time to time. The discussion of the Partnership'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 Partnership'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 sole asset is a 1,229 unit apartment complex known as Riverside Park Apartments located in Fairfax County, Virginia. Average occupancy for both the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was 96%. Results of Operations The Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was approximately $388,000 as compared to net income of approximately $216,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The increase in net income is attributable to a decrease in total expenses partially offset by a decrease in total revenues. Total expenses decreased primarily due to decreases in operating expense, interest expense, property tax expense and general and administrative expense, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense. The decrease in operating expense is primarily due to decreases in corporate housing expenses, which are no longer being offered at the property, maintenance expense, advertising expense as a result of decreased referral fees, and payroll related expenses. The decrease in operating expense was partially offset by an increase in insurance expense as a result of increased premiums. The decrease in interest expense is due to scheduled principal payments resulting in a lower carrying balance of the mortgage encumbering the property. Property tax expense decreased due to the timing and receipt of property tax bills which affected the Partnership's property tax accrual in the prior year. General and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in management reimbursements to NHP and its affiliates as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. In addition, costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership agreement are also included. The increase in depreciation expense is due to property improvements and replacements placed into service during the past twelve months. Total revenues decreased due to a decrease in other income. The decrease in other income is primarily due to a decrease in corporate housing income, which is no longer offered at the property, and a decrease in interest income due to lower cash balances maintained in interest bearing accounts, partially offset by an increase in utility reimbursements. Rental income remained relatively constant for the comparable periods. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, NHP monitors the rental market environment of its investment property 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, NHP 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 NHP will be able to sustain such a plan. Liquidity and Capital Resources At March 31, 2002, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $268,000 compared to approximately $799,000 at March 31, 2001. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $19,000, from the Partnership's year ended December 31, 2001, is due to approximately $1,394,000 of cash provided by operating activities, offset by approximately $1,071,000 of cash used in investing activities and approximately $304,000 of cash used in financing activities. Cash used in financing activities consisted of payments of principal made on the mortgage encumbering the Partnership's investment property. 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 investment property are as follows. The Partnership has budgeted, but is not limited to, approximately $1,484,000 of capital improvements at the property for 2002 which consist primarily of structural improvements, interior improvements, garage and carport upgrades and heating upgrades. As of March 31, 2002, the Partnership expended approximately $292,000 for capital improvements at its investment property consisting primarily of interior improvements, major landscaping, cabinet upgrades, and floor covering replacement. These improvements were funded from operations. Additional improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as 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 capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term. The Partnership's current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness of approximately $49,076,000 is being amortized over 240 months until the loan matures on July 1, 2020 at which time the loan will be fully amortized. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Partnership paid distributions of approximately $2,080,000, which was related to a payable at December 31, 2000. There were no distributions declared or paid during the three months ended March 31, 2002. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, the availability of cash reserves, and the timing of the debt maturity, refinancing and/or property sale. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations after required capital expenditures to permit distributions to its partners during the remainder of 2002 or subsequent periods. In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 381.19 limited partnership units in the Partnership representing 67.35% of the outstanding units at March 31, 2002. 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 acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or in exchange for units in the operating partnership of AIMCO either through private purchases or tender offers. 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 voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 67.35% of the outstanding units, AIMCO is in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood vote the Units it acquired in a manner favorable to the interest of the General Partner because of its affiliation with the General Partner.
