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, 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 fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. Reclassifications 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 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. 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 for both of the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, which is included in operating expenses. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received reimbursement of asset management fees amounting to approximately $17,000 and $32,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $20,000 and $19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. 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 Managing General Partner. During the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $14,000 and $15,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration. 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, 2002 and 2001 was 87% and 86%, respectively. Results of Operations The Partnership realized net income of approximately $36,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to a net loss of approximately $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The increase in net income is primarily attributable to an increase in total revenues and a decrease in total expenses. Total revenues increased due to an increase in rental income partially offset by a decrease in other income. Rental income increased due to an increase in student housing fees. Other income decreased due to a decrease in interest income as a result of lower cash balances throughout the period. Total expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in operating and general and administrative expenses. Operating expense decreased due to a decrease in salaries and related employee benefits and advertising costs. General and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in reimbursements to the Managing General Partner allowed under the Partnership Agreement associated with its management of the Partnership. 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 in general and administrative expenses. 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, 2002, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $351,000 compared to approximately $369,000 at March 31, 2001. Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $50,000 from December 31, 2001, due to approximately $157,000 of cash provided by operating activities which was offset by approximately $36,000 and $71,000 of cash used in investing and financing activities, respectively. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements. Cash used in financing activities consists of payments of principal made on the mortgage encumbering Lewis Park Apartments and distributions to the partners. 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. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Partnership completed approximately $36,000 of capital improvements at Lewis Park, consisting primarily of floor covering replacements, furniture, appliances and miscellaneous improvements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. Capital improvements of approximately $99,000 have been budgeted for 2002 which include appliance and floor covering replacements and parking lot improvements. 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 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 $5,324,000 is amortized over 20 years with a maturity date of September 1, 2020. The Partnership distributed the following amounts during the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands, except per unit data): Three Months Per Limited Three Months Per Limited Ended Partnership Ended Partnership March 31, 2002 Unit March 31, 2001 Unit Operations $ 40 $ 2.48 $ 23 $ 1.40 Refinancing (1) -- -- 547 34.85 $ 40 $ 2.48 $ 570 $36.25 (1) From the refinancing of Lewis Park Apartments. 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 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 2002 or subsequent periods. In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 5,389 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 34.33% of the outstanding units as of 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 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.
