NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1997 (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Cobblestone Golf Group, Inc. (the ''Company''), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on August 10, 1992. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cobblestone Holdings, Inc. (''Holdings''). Holdings is controlled by Brentwood Golf Partners, L.P., a partnership organized by Brentwood Associates and the Company's President. The Company owns and operates golf courses in the United States, with a current portfolio of 25 golf properties including private country clubs, semi-private clubs and public (or daily fee) courses. The Company's courses are concentrated in clusters near metropolitan areas primarily in the Sunbelt states (including Arizona, California, Georgia, Florida, Texas and Virginia) which have large golfing populations and attractive climates. The Company's business consists primarily of operating golf courses and related facilities, with revenue generated from membership fees and dues at private country clubs, greens fees, food and beverage services, golf cart rentals, retail merchandise sales, driving range fees and lodging fees. The Company owns nineteen courses, leases four courses (subject to long-term leases in excess of 20 years, including extension options), leases one driving range and pro shop facility and manages one additional course. The Company's portfolio includes ten private country clubs, nine public facilities and six semi-private facilities. Seasonal weather conditions as well as the timing of new course purchases or leases may cause the Company's results of operations to vary from quarter to quarter. The Company has acquired certain golf facilities through its wholly- owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and such subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1997. 2. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 4 COBBLESTONE GOLF GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1997 (UNAUDITED) 3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In January, 1998, Holdings announced that it had reached a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by The Meditrust Companies ("Meditrust") for Meditrust stock valued at approximately $241 million. In addition, under the terms of the agreement, approximately $154 million of Holdings' debt and associated costs will be either refinanced or assumed as a condition of closing. Meditrust is a paired share real estate investment trust and the nation's largest heath care real estate investment trust. In February, 1998, the Company purchased an 18-hole semi-private country club located near Orlando, Florida for a total cash purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. Also in February, 1998, the Company purchased an 18- hole semi-private country club located near Atlanta, Georgia for a total cash purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. 5 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 Operating Revenue. Operating revenue increased to $21.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $17.0 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $4.1 million or 23.9%. Of this increase, $1.9 million is attributable to operating revenue for the two courses acquired by the Company in February and March, 1997 and $0.2 million is attributable to the course acquired by the Company in November, 1997. The remaining $2.0 million is attributable to a general increase in operating revenue from the Company's other facilities as a result of increased marketing efforts, price increases and utilization. Course-level Operating Expenses. Course-level operating expenses, which include costs of golf course operations (e.g., salaries, taxes and utilities), costs of food and beverage sales and costs of pro shop sales increased to $14.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $13.2 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $1.7 million or 13.6%. Of this increase, $1.5 million is attributable to course-level operating expenses for the two courses acquired by the Company in February and March, 1997 and $0.1 million is attributable to the course acquired by the Company in November, 1997. The remaining $0.1 million is attributable to a net increase in course-level operating expenses from the Company's other facilities. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of corporate salaries and related expenses and legal and accounting fees. General and administrative expenses increased to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $1.0 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $0.1 million or 9.0%. The increase in expense is related to non-recurring costs associated with the settlement of a law suit. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of operating revenue was 5.0% for the three months ended December 31, 1997, a decrease from 5.7% for the comparable prior year period. Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $2.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $2.2 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $0.2 million or 9.6 %. This increase is primarily attributable to the inclusion of the two courses acquired in February and March, 1997. Income from Operations. Income from operations increased to $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $0.7 million for the comparable prior year period, primarily due to the factors described above. Income from operations as a percentage of operating revenue was 12.5% for the three month period ended December 31, 1997, an increase from 3.8% for the comparable prior year period. Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, increased to $2.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $2.5 million for the comparable prior period, an increase of $0.4 million or 13.3%. The increase is a result of a higher level of outstanding debt due to the acquisition of three facilities since December 31, 1996. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company recorded a $9,020 provision for income taxes, which reflects the fact that certain subsidiaries generate taxable income in individual states and localities notwithstanding the Company's consolidated loss for financial reporting purposes. Net loss. Net loss decreased to $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $1.9 million for the comparable period, primarily due to the factors described above. 6 Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary uses of cash are to fund debt service and maintenance capital expenditures at its existing facilities (such as landscaping and purchasing golf cart fleets). The Company also implements one-time upgrade and renovation capital expenditures at its existing facilities in order to enhance its appeal to customers and members and to generate additional revenues and cash flow. Examples of these expenditures are the addition of courses (including nine hole additions) to existing facilities to increase capacity and clubhouse renovations to support increased dues and fees. These expenditures are generally of a non-recurring nature. In addition, the Company implements strategic capital expenditure programs which enable it to reduce course level operating costs and improve the efficiency of operations, such as improving the irrigation system, acquiring more efficient maintenance equipment and other programs which enhance the marketability and/or reduce the operating expenses of existing facilities. As part of its business strategy, the Company will require cash to continue to acquire, lease or manage additional golf courses and the related facilities and to complete any targeted renovations. The Company expended $6.4 million on acquisitions and $3.2 million on capital improvements during the three months ended December 31, 1997. As of December 31, 1997, the Company had approximately $3.6 million of long-term commitments for one-time capital expenditures with respect to a golf facility which is currently under development. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated growth, the Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with available borrowings under the Company's credit facility and other sources of liquidity, will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated future requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and scheduled payments of principal and interest on its indebtedness. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future working capital borrowings will be available in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to service its indebtedness or make necessary capital expenditures. The Company intends to fund these expenditures primarily with operating cash flow and borrowings under its credit facility. The credit facility provides for borrowings of up to $50.0 million, of which $45.0 million is available to fund future acquisitions of golf courses and capital expenditures at such courses and certain capital improvements at existing courses, and $5.0 million of which is available for general working capital purposes. The total borrowing availability under the $45.0 million portion of the credit facility will decrease over the term of the facility beginning September 30, 1998. The credit facility provides that the Company may not make any acquisitions or upgrade capital expenditures when Funded Debt plus certain projected upgrade capital expenditures is greater than 6.5x of Adjusted EBITDA (each as defined in the credit facility), with certain adjustments for notes receivable, reducing over time. The maximum funded debt to EBITDA Ratio was 5.5x at December 31, 1997. The credit facility also imposes other limitations on the ability of the Company with respect to borrowings. As on December 31, 1997, the Company had $24.3 million outstanding under the credit facility. In addition, as of December 31, 1997, the Company had $0.4 million of cash on hand to meet its working capital and other needs. Historically, the Company has financed its operations through borrowings under bank credit facilities and equity contributions by its stockholders. As of December 31, 1997, the Company's stockholders have invested a total of $47.6 million of equity to fund the expansion of the Company and its golf course portfolio. In addition, proceeds of a $30 million unit offering were contributed by Holdings to the Company as equity, increasing total equity raised by the Company and Holdings since inception to approximately $74.4 million. For the three month period ended December 31, 1997, net cash used by operating activities was $2.9 million versus $3.2 million in the prior comparable period. The primary component of this change is the payment of accrued property taxes and accrued interest. During the three month period ended December 31, 1997, net cash used in investing activities was $9.6 million versus $1.8 million in the prior comparable period. Expenditures for the three months ended December 31, 1997 consisted of $6.4 million in acquisitions and $3.2 million in capital expenditures. 7 During the three month period ended December 31, 1997, net cash provided by financing activities was $9.4 million versus $0.3 million in the prior comparable period. During the three months ended December 31, 1997, the Company borrowed $9.6 million under the credit facility and paid $0.2 million in principal of its existing obligations. Subsequent Events In January, 1998, Holdings announced that it had reached a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by The Meditrust Companies ("Meditrust") for Meditrust stock valued at approximately $241 million. In addition, under the terms of the agreement, approximately $154 million of Holdings' debt and associated costs will be either refinanced or assumed as a condition of closing. Meditrust is a paired share real estate investment trust and the nation's largest heath care real estate investment trust. In February, 1998, the Company purchased an 18-hole semi-private country club located near Orlando, Florida for a total cash purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. Also in February, 1998, the Company purchased an 18- hole semi-private country club located near Atlanta, Georgia for a total cash purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. 8 Part II.
