Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the partnership's financial position at June 30, 1998, the results of operations and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT Net income per Limited Partnership Unit is based upon the weighted average number of Units outstanding during the periods presented, which amounted to 8,751 in 1998 and 1997. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, annual partnership net income is allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the Limited Partners. A Partnership net loss in any year will be allocated 24 percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the Limited Partners until the losses so allocated equal income previously allocated. Any additional losses will be allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the Limited Partners. Partnership gains from any sale or refinancing will be allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the Limited Partners until allocated gains and profits equal losses. Additional gains will be allocated 24 percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the Limited Partners. -6- 7 DEL TACO RESTAURANT PROPERTIES I -------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED ----------------------------------------- JUNE 30, 1998 ------------- NOTE 3 - LEASING ACTIVITIES The Registrant leases (the "Leases") certain properties (the "Properties") for operation of restaurants to Del Taco, Inc. ("General Partner") on a triple net basis. The Leases are for terms of 35 years commencing with the completion of the restaurant facility located on each Property and require monthly rentals equal to 12 percent of the gross sales of the restaurants. There is no minimum rental under any of the Leases. The Registrant had a total of six Properties leased as of June 30, 1998 and 1997, two of which have been subleased to Del Taco franchisees (one of which is affiliated with Del Taco, Inc.) For the three months ended June 30, 1998, the five restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $925,165 and net income of $51,211 as compared to $867,749 and $29,141 respectively, for the corresponding period in 1997. Net income by restaurant includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense. For the three months ended June 30, 1998, the one restaurant operated by a Del Taco franchisee, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had unaudited sales of $167,803 as compared with $150,201 during the same period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the five restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $1,761,425 and net income of $81,911 as compared to $1,658,449 and $50,973 respectively, for the corresponding period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the one restaurant operated by a Del Taco franchisee, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had unaudited sales of $326,333 as compared with $283,809 during the same period in 1997. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, the Elkhorn Boulevard restaurant in Sacramento, California reported net losses of $4,600 and $8,724 as compared to net losses of $5,394 and $9,960 respectively, for the corresponding period in 1997. -7- 8 DEL TACO RESTAURANT PROPERTIES I -------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED ----------------------------------------- JUNE 30, 1998 ------------- NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the month of June. The June rent receivable was collected on July 10, 1998. Del Taco, Inc. serves in the capacity of general partner in other partnerships which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants, and four partnerships which were formed for the purpose of acquiring real property in California for construction of Mexican-American restaurants for lease under long-term agreements to Del Taco, Inc. for operation under the Del Taco trade name. In addition, see Note 5 with respect to certain distributions to the General Partner. NOTE 5 - DISTRIBUTIONS On July 15, 1998, a distribution to the Limited Partners of $116,715, or approximately $13.34 per Limited Partnership Unit, was approved. Such distribution was paid on August 5, 1998. The General Partner also received a distribution of $1,179 with respect to its 1% partnership interest. -8- 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Registrant commenced offering of Limited Partnership Units on March 21, 1983. By March 20, 1984, the sale of such Units provided a total capitalization for the Registrant of $4,375,500. Fifteen percent of the cash received from the sale of Limited Partnership Units was used to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse the General Partner for offering costs incurred. The remaining funds were expended for the acquisition of sites and construction of six restaurants. In 1985, the first four restaurants opened for business and two additional restaurants were opened in 1986. Approximately $4,002,000 was expended for such purposes. Since the six restaurants owned by the Registrant opened, cash flow from Lease payments received from Del Taco, the Registrant's General Partner, which leases all six restaurants, has provided adequate liquidity for operation of the Registrant. However, the Registrant's overwhelmingly predominant source of income to meet its expenses and fund distributions to its Limited Partners is payments from Del Taco under the Leases, comprising primarily rent calculated on the basis of the gross sales of the restaurants operated on the Properties, as to which there are no contractually specified minimum or guaranteed amounts. Thus, the adequacy of the Registrant's liquidity and capital resources in the future will depend primarily upon the gross revenues of such restaurants as well as upon Del Taco's financial condition and results of operations generally. Results of Operations - --------------------- The Registrant owns six Mexican-American restaurants that are under long-term lease to its General Partner for operation under the Del Taco trade name. The Registrant receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of restaurant sales. For the three months ended June 30, rental revenues increased from $122,154 in 1997 to $131,156 in 1998. For the six months ended June 30, rental revenues increased from $233,071 in 1997 to $250,531 in 1998. Such increases are directly attributable to increased sales at the restaurants. -9- 10 The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant for the quarter and year to date: THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30 JUNE 30 ------------------------ ----------------------- 1998 1997 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- -------- Riverside Avenue, Rialto, CA 21,562 20,553 41,018 38,123 Elden Avenue, Moreno Valley, CA 20,667 19,430 38,615 36,772 Foothill Boulevard, La Verne, CA 28,340 26,105 54,146 50,879 Baseline & Archibald, Rancho Cucamonga, 20,136 18,024 39,160 34,057 CA Elkhorn Boulevard, Sacramento, CA 13,268 12,380 25,283 22,954 Haven Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 27,183 25,662 52,309 50,286 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total $131,156 $122,154 $250,531 $233,071 ======== ======== ======== ======== The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to total general and administrative expenses of items included in the Registrant's Statements of Income: Percentage of Total General & Administrative Expense -------------------------------- Six Months Ended June 30 -------------------- 1998 1997 ------ ------ Accounting fees 68.32% 70.42% Distribution of information to Limited Partners 31.68 29.58 ------ ------ 100.00% 100.00% ====== ====== Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses which consist primarily of accounting fees and costs of distribution of information to the Limited Partners. For the three months ended June 30, general and administrative expenses increased from $8,760 in 1997 to $9,977 in 1998. For the six months ended June 30, general and administrative expenses increased from $29,567 in 1997 to $30,624 in 1998. General and administrative expenses increased due to increased costs of printing and distribution. For the three months ended June 30, the Registrant incurred depreciation expense in the amount of $10,943 in 1997 and 1998. The Registrant incurred depreciation expense of $21,886 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998. -10- 11 For the three months ended June 30, revenues increased by $8,593 while expenses increased by $1,217 resulting in an increase in net income from $103,608 in 1997 to $110,984 in 1998. For the six months ended June 30, revenues increased by $17,013 while expenses increased by $1,057 resulting in an increase in Registrant's net income from $183,874 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $199,830 for the corresponding period in 1998. For the reasons stated under "Liquidity and Capital Resources" above, the Registrant's results of operations in the future will depend primarily upon the gross revenues of the restaurants located on the Properties leased to Del Taco as well as upon Del Taco's financial condition and results of operations generally.
