KRUPP CASH PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements including those concerning Management's expectations regarding the future financial performance and future events. These forward-looking statements involve significant risk and uncertainties, including those described herein. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Partnership's ability to generate cash adequate to meet its needs is dependent primarily upon the operations of its real estate investments. Liquidity is also generated by the MBS portfolio. The Partnership's sources of future liquidity will be used for payment of expenses related to real estate operations, capital expenditures, including tenant build-outs, to secure quality tenants, and other administrative expenses. Cash flow, if any, as calculated under Section 17 of the Partnership Agreement, will then be available for distribution to the Partners. The Partnership continuously strives to improve net income, maintain high occupancy and retain quality tenants at its retail centers. However, to attain these objectives, the Partnership has found it necessary to fund a significant portion of tenant build-outs. The Partnership completed improvements at High Point National Furniture Mart ("High Point") which were necessary to reconfigure space for new tenants and comply with present building code standards. In 1997, the Partnership is planning to spend approximately $230,000 for improvements at High Point, most of which are enhancements to the exteriors of the building. At Tradewinds Shopping Center ("Tradewinds"), management has negotiated the expansion of an anchor tenant from its existing 50,181 square foot space to 66,000 square feet. The Partnership and the tenant each intend to spend approximately $4,200,000 for the buildout. The Partnership's portion will mainly fund exterior improvements, while the tenant's portion will mainly fund interior renovation specifications. Completion of the project is scheduled for the first quarter of 1998. The new lease agreement with the anchor tenant includes a significant increase in lease rent which will favorably impact Partnership liquidity. In order to fund the expansion, the Partnership plans to utilize its cash reserves as well as any proceeds received from the possible financing of its mortgage backed securities portfolio in 1997. At Luria's Plaza, the Partnership is planning to spend approximately $105,000 for capital improvements in 1997, most of which are tenant build-outs which the General Partners believe are necessary to maintain or increase its current occupancy level. Liquidity provided by the MBS is derived primarily from interest income, scheduled principal payments and prepayments of the portfolio. The level of prepayments is contingent upon the interest rate environment, which in turn, affects the Partnership's liquidity. Continued KRUPP CASH PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued The Partnership holds MBS that are guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"). The principal risks with respect to MBS are the credit worthiness of GNMA and FHLMC and the risk that the current value of any MBS may decline as a result of changes in market interest rates. Currently, the General Partners believe that the market interest rate risk is minimal due to the fact that the Partnership has the ability to hold these securities to maturity. The General Partners, on an ongoing basis, assess the current and future liquidity needs in determining the levels of working capital reserves the Partnership should maintain. Adjustments to distributions are made when appropriate to reflect such assessments. Based on current assessments, the General Partners have determined that retaining the current annualized distribution rate of $0.55 per Unit will allow the Partnership to maintain adequate reserves. Continued KRUPP CASH PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP Operations The Partnership experienced a decrease in net income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the same periods in 1996, as revenue remained stable and expenses increased. Total revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996, slightly increased due to increases in rental revenue and interest income, partially offset by a decrease in MBS interest income. The increase in rental revenue is due to the newly refurbished showroom spaces at High Point, which have enabled the property to command higher rents. These higher rents have been partially offset by the decrease in rent revenue at Tradewinds due to the Dominicks expansion, discussed below. Interest income increased as a result of higher cash and cash equivalents available for investment. The decrease in MBS interest income is a result of repayments of principal on the MBS portfolio throughout the year. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996, slightly decreased due to decreases in rental revenue and MBS interest income partially offset by an increase in interest income. The decline in rental revenue primarily results from the spaces which have been vacant during the expansion of Dominicks, an anchor tenant at Tradewinds. To facilitate the expansion of Dominicks, management negotiated the termination of the Walgreens's lease, effective December 31, 1996. As a result, rental revenue has decreased in 1997 as compared to 1996. The decrease in MBS interest income is a result of repayments of principal which occur on the MBS portfolio throughout the year. Interest income increased as a result of higher cash and cash equivalents available for investment. Total expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, due to increased general and administrative, real estate tax and depreciation expenses. General and administrative expenses increased as costs incurred in connection with the operation of the Partnership, including the preparation of reports and other communications to the Unitholders, increased as did legal costs relating to the unsolicited tender offers made to purchase Units of Depositary Receipts. The increase in real estate tax expense is due to a refund of real estate taxes received in the third quarter of 1996, as a result of the reassessment of Tradewinds's property value by the local taxing authority, which was reflected as a reduction in the real estate tax expense in the third quarter of 1996. Depreciation expense increased as a result of continued capital improvement expenditures.
