Item 1. Financial Statements (continued)
ALLSTAR INNS INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. History and Basis of Presentation
Allstar Inns Inc. was originally organized as a privately-
owned corporation in 1982 to purchase 52 motels. The
acquisition was consummated on April 28, 1983. On February
11, 1987 a partnership (the "Partnership") was formed and
succeeded to the business and operations of the original
company on April 3, 1987. On November 25, 1993 the
Partnership merged with and into Allstar Inns Inc. (the
"Company").
In July 1992, the security holders of the Company approved a
plan that placed the business and operations of the
Company's Allstar Inns under the management of Motel 6
Operating L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Motel 6
Operator"). A management contract (the "Management
Contract") with the Motel 6 Operator provided that the Motel
6 Operator would operate and manage all the Company's motels
through December 31, 2011.
On May 26, 1995, the security holders of the Company
approved a plan to terminate the Management Contract
effective January 1, 1995 and replace it with a Master Lease
Agreement under which the Motel 6 Operator will lease the
properties on a "net, net, net" basis from the Company for a
15 year term starting as of January 1, 1995. Under the
Master Lease Agreement, the Motel 6 Operator has an option
(the "Lease Purchase Option") to purchase the Company's
motels prior to the end of 1998.
As a consequence of entering into the Master Lease
Agreement, the Company's financial statements presented in
this report include only the period January 1, 1996 through
June 30, 1996, with the exception of the Balance Sheets
which includes the audited results for December 31, 1995.
Comparable prior periods do not exist and are, therefore,
not reflected in the statements presented in this report.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position and results of operations have been made.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1995. The results of operations for the
period from January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996 are not
indicative of the results for the full year.
2. Net Loss Per Share
Net Loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
As of June 30, 1996 there were 985,710 outstanding Shares
("Shares") of common stock.
3. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost and consists of the
following at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 (in
thousands of dollars):
June 30, December 31,
1996 1995
Land.............................. $ 31,067 $ 31,067
Buildings and improvements........ 166,199 166,957
Furniture and equipment........... 42,454 42,750
Leasehold interests............... 2,498 2,539
242,218 243,313
Less accumulated depreciation
and amortization............ 110,388 107,081
Net property and equipment........ $131,830 $136,232
In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement No. 121, Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of. The statement, which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995, requires that an entity evaluate long-lived assets and
certain other identifiable intangible assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amounts of the asset may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss meeting the recognition criteria is to be
measured as the amount by which the carrying amount for
financial reporting purposes exceeds the fair value of the
asset. The Company adopted this statement in 1996 and the
adoption of the statement has had no effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

5. Dividends
The Company did not declare or pay dividends to its
stockholders during the period January 1, 1996 through June
30, 1996.
6. Litigation
Allstar Inns Inc. vs. Herrick and Campbell
This litigation involved an action against the sellers of
the original 52 motels acquired by the Company in 1983. The
matter was heard in May 1995 and the court issued its
decision in favor of the defendant sellers.
Defendant sellers, as prevailing parties, asserted a claim
with the court for reasonable attorney fees and costs and
the court on April 30, 1996 awarded defendant sellers a
judgement in the amount of $2.5 million. However, to avoid
any further litigation and to fully and finally resolve all
disputes, differences and disagreements, the Company and
defendant sellers entered into a settlement agreement on
June 7, 1996. Under the settlement agreement the court
judgement was vacated, the action was dismissed in its
entirety and the Company paid defendant sellers a reduced
settlement amount of $1.8 million.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition
Results of Operations
General
The Company's business strategy is to maximize net cash flow
through the leasing of its motel properties to the Motel 6
Operator, and in the event the Lease Purchase Option is exercised
by December 31, 1997, the Company will receive $40.0 million in
proceeds from sale of the properties to the Motel 6 Operator
after payment of all indebtedness of the Company relating to the
motels.
In the event the option is not exercised by the Motel 6
Operator, the Company will continue to maximize net cash flow
through leasing activities through the remaining term of the
Master Lease Agreement (2009). Thereafter, the Company will
either resume operations of the motels, seek another lessee or
sell the motels.
Demand for the Company's motel rooms is dependent in part
upon regional and national economic conditions. In addition, the
operations of individual motels may be adversely affected by
changes in local business conditions, travel patterns, highway
relocations and the addition of competitors' motels. Under the
Master Lease Agreement, however, such business factors do not
affect the Motel 6 Operator's obligation to pay rent to the
Company at the agreed rate. The Motel 6 Operator's continuing
ability to pay such rent may be affected by, and its decision to
exercise the Lease Purchase Option will depend largely on, its
success in maximizing occupancy and operating income at the motel
properties. The Company is unable to predict whether the
purchase option will be exercised.
Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
Rent Income is comprised of:
o Basic Rent of -0- for the quarter and $3.5 million for
the six month period is the annual prepaid rent paid
directly to the Company by the Motel 6 Operator. It
represents the second year's rent payment under the
Master Lease Agreement.
o Debt service rent of $5.1 million for the quarter and
$10.2 million for the six month period represents
monthly principal and interest payments made by the
Motel 6 Operator to the Company's lenders.
Interest income is the interest earned from investing the
Company's available cash balances in top grade commercial paper
and other short term investments.
Interest expense includes year-to-date payments made to the
Company's lenders by the Motel 6 Operator.
Depreciation & amortization and other expense primarily
reflects the year-to-date depreciation expense of the Company's
property and equipment.
Provision <benefit> for income taxes reflects the year-to-
date accrual of the deferred tax benefit that will result from
this year's projected net operating loss.
During the second quarter, the land lease term on the 35
room motel at La Habra, California expired and was not renewed.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 1996, the Company had $13.7 million of cash and
cash equivalents, an increase of approximately $.2 million from
December 31, 1995. As of June 30, 1996, the Company has no
borrowing capacity available on its credit facilities with its
lenders.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.9 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1996. This favorable result
was primarily due to receiving, in January 1996, the annual
prepaid Basic Rent payment of $3.5 million from the Motel 6
Operator.
There were no expenditures by the Company for investment
activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The Motel 6
Operator, under the Master Lease Agreement, is responsible for
all motel capital expenditures.
Net cash used by financing activities was <$1.7 million> for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and includes a $1.1 million
loan amortization payment, by the Company, to Wells Fargo Bank
("WFB"). Also included in the above was $.6 million of mortgage
principal payments made to the Company's other lenders.
Under the terms of the WFB Loan Modification Agreement
entered into in 1995, the Company is required to provide annually
out of the Basic Rent payment an annual principal payment, based
on a 25-year amortization schedule, in an amortization account
with WFB. Under terms of the Master Lease Agreement, the Motel 6
Operator is required to reimburse the Company for these payments.
Such reimbursement shall come from an annual calculation of
excess cash flow from the WFB mortgaged motels, or in lump sum at
December 31, 1998 if the interim years' annual excess cash flow
payments have not been sufficient for full reimbursement to the
Company.
EBITDA was $13.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1996. EBITDA, as used above, is defined as earnings before
interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
The Company believes this definition of EBITDA provides a
meaningful measure of its ability to service debt, especially
when considering that any increase in debt service will be
largely offset by an increase in debt service rent paid by the
Motel 6 Operator.
The Company has substantial repayment obligations under its
long-term debt facilities and is subject to a number of
significant affirmative and negative covenants. Management is
unable to predict whether the Lease Purchase Option will be
exercised by the Motel 6 Operator. The Company does not believe
that it will generate sufficient cash from operations to repay
the principal amount of its long-term indebtedness when such
indebtedness comes due in 1998. Thus, unless the Company sells
its assets to the Motel 6 Operator or another purchaser which
assumes or satisfies the Company's indebtedness (or unless the
Company is able to refinance its indebtedness at an earlier
date), the Company will be forced to attempt to refinance such
indebtedness on or before December 31, 1998. Under the terms of
the Master Lease Agreement, if the Motel 6 Operator fails to
exercise the Lease Purchase Option, the Company's indebtedness to
an affiliate of the Motel 6 Operator (the "Motel 6 Lender")
(approximately $37.1 million as of June 30, 1996) will be
cancelled. The Company is unable to predict whether it will be
able to refinance its indebtedness and, if so, the terms on which
such refinancing might occur.
The Company currently anticipates, that with its present
cash balances, sufficient working capital will be available to
meet its fiscal year 1996 obligations.
