In addition, the Partnership received $305,163 and $374,030 representing the prepayment penalties associated with the payoff. In May 1997, the Partnership will make a special distribution of $.65 per unit per Limited Partner interest with the proceeds from this prepayment. -5- Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 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 most significant demand on the Partnership's liquidity are quarterly distributions paid to investors of approximately $3.9 million. Funds used for investor distributions come from interest received on the PIMs, MBS, cash and cash equivalents net of operating expenses, and certain principal collections received on the PIMs and MBS. The Partnership funds a portion of the distributions from principal collections causing the capital resources of the Partnership to continually decrease. As the capital resources decrease, the total cash inflows to the Partnership will also decrease which will result in periodic adjustments to the quarterly distributions paid to investors. The General Partners periodically review the distribution rate to determine whether an adjustment to the distribution rate is necessary based on projected future cash flows. In general, the General Partners try to set a distribution rate that provides for level quarterly distributions of cash available for distribution. To the extent quarterly distributions differ from the cash available for distribution the General Partners may adjust the distribution rate or distribute funds through a special distribution. During April, the Partnership will receive proceeds from the repayment of the Paces Arbor and Paces Forest Apartment PIMs. During May, the Partnership will make a special distribution to the investors of $.65 per limited partner interest. The General Partners estimate that the Partnership can maintain the current quarterly distribution rate of $.30 per limited partner interest through 1997. However, in the event of further PIM prepayments the Partnership would be required to distribute any proceeds from the prepayments as a special distribution which may cause an adjustment to the distribution rate to reflect the anticipated future cash inflows from the remaining mortgage investments. For the first five years of the PIMs the borrowers are prohibited from prepaying. For the second five years, the borrower can prepay the loan incurring a prepayment penalty. The Partnership has the option to call certain PIMs by accelerating their maturity if the loans are not prepaid by the tenth year after permanent funding. The Partnership will determine the merits of exercising the call option for each PIM as economic conditions warrant. Such factors as the condition of the asset, local market conditions, interest rates and available financing will have an impact on this decision. Assessment of Credit Risk The Partnership's investments in mortgages are guaranteed or insured by the Federal National Mortgage Association ( FNMA ), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ( FHLMC ), the Government National Mortgage Association ( GNMA ) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development ( HUD ) and therefore the certainty of their cash flows and the risk of -6- material loss of the amounts invested depends on the creditworthiness of these entities. FNMA is a federally chartered private corporation that guarantees obligations originated under its programs. FHLMC is a federally chartered corporation that guarantees obligations originated under its programs and is wholly-owned by the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks. These obligations are not guaranteed by the U.S. Government or the Federal Home Loan Bank Board. GNMA guarantees the full and timely payment of principal and basic interest on the securities it issues, which represent interests in pooled mortgages insured by HUD. Obligations insured by HUD, an agency of the U.S. Government, are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Distributable Cash Flow and Net Cash Proceeds from Capital Transactions Shown below is the calculation of Distributable Cash Flow and Net Cash Proceeds from Capital Transactions as defined in Section 17 of the Partnership Agreement and the source of cash distributions for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and the period from inception through March 31, 1997. The General Partners provide certain of the information below to meet requirements of the Partnership Agreement and because they believe that it is an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance. However, Distributable Cash Flow and Net Cash Proceeds from Capital Transactions should not be considered by the reader as a substitute to net income as an indicator of the Partnership's operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. (Amounts in thousands except per Unit amounts) Three Months Ended Inception to March 31, 1997 March 31, 1997 Distributable Cash Flow: Income for tax purposes $ 3,624 $ 113,458 Items not requiring or (not providing) the use of operating funds: Amortization of prepaid expenses, fees and organization costs 325 8,209 Acquisition expenses paid from offering proceeds charged to operations - 184 Shared appreciation income/prepayment penalties (679) (2,492) Gain on sale of MBS - (253) Total Distributable Cash Flow ("DCF") $ 3,270 $ 119,106 Limited Partners Share of DCF $ 3,172 $ 115,533 Limited Partners Share of DCF per Limited Partner interests ( Unit ) $ .25 9.05(b) General Partners Share of DCF $ 98 $ 3,573 -7- Net Proceeds from Capital Transactions: Principal collections and prepayments (including Shared Appreciation Income) on PIMs $ 1,065 $ 32,001 Principal collections and sales proceeds on MBS (including gain on sale) 454 63,599 Reinvestment of MBS and PIM principal collections - (41,960) Total Net Proceeds from Capital Transactions $ 1,519 $ 53,640 Cash available for distribution (DCF plus proceeds from Capital transactions) $ 4,789 $172,746 Distributions: Limited Partners $ 3,831 (a) $166,303 Limited Partners Average per Unit $ .30 (a) $ 13.02 General Partners $ 98 (a) $ 3,573(a) Total Distributions $ 3,929 $169,876 (a) Includes an estimate of the distribution to be paid in May 1997. (b) Limited Partners average per Unit return of capital as of May 1997 is $3.97 [$13.02 - $9.05]. Return of capital represents that portion of distributions which is not funded from DCF such as proceeds from the sale of assets and substantially all of the principal collections received from MBS and PIMs. Operations The following discussion relates to the operations of the Partnership during the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996: (Amounts in thousands) 1997 1996 Interest income - PIMs: Base interest $2,663 $2,921 Shared income and minimum additional interest 310 159 Interest income on MBS 648 698 Other interest income 60 47 Partnership expenses (411) (432) Distributable Cash Flow 3,270 3,393 Shared appreciation income 679 - Decrease in accrued participation income - (159) Amortization of prepaid fees and expenses (360) (388) Net income $3,589 $2,846 Net income increased by approximately $743,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996. The increase is primarily attributed to participation interest associated with the Paces Forest and Paces Arbor PIMs totaling approximately $877,000. In addition, the -9- Partnership received participation interest relating to the Mill Ponds and Rosewood PIMs in the amount of $62,000 and $51,000, respectively. These increases were somewhat offset by a reduction in base interest income on PIMs of approximately $258,000 due to the prepayment of the Friendly Hills PIM in August 1996. -10- KRUPP INSURED PLUS-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
