General Development of Business
Chateau Communities, Inc. ("the Company"), a self-administered and self-managed
equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"), is one of the largest
owner/managers of manufactured home communities in the United States. The
Company conducts substantially all of its activities through CP Limited
Partnership, a Maryland Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), in
which it owns, directly and through ROC Communities, Inc. ("ROC"), the other
general partner of the Operating Partnership, an approximate 89% general partner
interest. The Company owns and operates 166 manufactured home community
properties (the "Properties") containing 52,347 homesites and 1,359 park
model/RV sites in 28 states. The Company also fee manages 44 manufactured home
community properties containing 9,200 homesites. In addition, the Company is
involved in the development and expansion of manufactured home communities, and
through its subsidiary, Community Sales, Inc. ("CSI"), the sale of new and pre-
owned homes, brokerage of used homes and in assisting residents in arranging
financing and insurance services.
Formation of the Company
The Company was formed in Maryland on August 25, 1993, as Chateau Properties,
Inc., to continue and expand the manufactured home community operations and
business objectives of Chateau Estates, a Michigan co-partnership, which had
developed, owned and operated manufactured home communities and properties since
1966.
Industry Overview
A manufactured home community is a residential subdivision designed and improved
with homesites for the placement of manufactured homes, including related
improvements and amenities. Manufactured homes are detached, single-family
homes which are produced off-site by manufacturers and installed on sites within
the community. Manufactured homes are available in a variety of architectural
styles and floor plans, offering a variety of amenities, custom options and on-
site built additional structures.
Modern manufactured home communities are similar to typical residential
subdivisions and generally contain centralized entrances, paved streets, curbs
and gutters and parkways. In addition, such communities often provide a variety
of amenities to residents which may include a clubhouse, swimming pools and
jacuzzis, playgrounds, basketball courts, picnic areas, shuffleboard courts,
tennis courts, cable television service, golf courses, marinas and laundry
facilities. Utilities are provided or arranged for by the owner of the
community. Some communities provide water and sewer service through public or
private utilities, while others provide these services to residents from on-site
facilities.
The owner of each home in a manufactured home community leases a site from the
community. The manufactured home community is the owner of the underlying land,
utility connections, streets, lighting, driveways, common area amenities and
other capital improvements and is responsible for enforcement of community
guidelines and maintenance. Each owner within the manufactured home community is
responsible for the maintenance of his home and leased site. Additionally,
manufactured home communities tend to have stable resident bases, with
relatively few residents moving manufactured homes out of the communities.
Management thus tends to be more stable, and capital expenditures needs less
significant, relative to multi-family rental apartment complexes.
Operating and Investment Strategies
The Company seeks to maximize long-term growth in income and portfolio value
through active management and expansion of certain of its manufactured home
communities and selective acquisition and development
3
of additional communities. The Company focuses on manufactured home communities
that have growth potential and expects to hold such properties for long-term
investment and capital appreciation. The Company's operating and investment
strategies include:
Operations
* Providing attractive and desirable manufactured home communities for
existing and prospective residents;
* Maintaining and upgrading communities on a continuous basis through a
program of regular and preventive maintenance and replacement;
* Offering residents accessibility to on-site managers to maximize
retention, encourage home maintenance and improvements and to minimize
turnover;
* Providing frequent personal contact between on-site managers and
residents to foster a sense of pride within the community and to
enhance community desirability;
* Offering potential community residents the convenience of purchasing a
home already in place within the community or ordering a new home;
* Increasing value to residents by providing additional value-added
services; and
* Assisting potential residents in securing financing and insurance for
their home.
Development, Expansion and Acquisitions
* Utilizing the expertise and relationships developed by the Company's
management to identify new development opportunities;
* Selectively developing new communities in strategically desirable
regions where development is supported by favorable demographics and
strong market demand;
* Capitalizing on opportunities to renovate and expand properties
consistent with local market demand;
* Selectively acquiring well-located manufactured home communities that
demonstrate the potential for increase in revenue and cash flow
through professional property management, improved operating
efficiencies, aggressive leasing and, where appropriate, expansion on
adjacent land; and
* Acquiring properties in existing markets in order to achieve economies
of scale in operations, and in new markets where portfolios may be
acquired with regional management in place.
4
Financing Strategies
The Company intends to maintain a conservative and flexible capital structure
that enables it to (i) continue to access the capital markets on favorable
terms; (ii) enhance potential earnings growth; (iii) minimize its level of
encumbered assets; and (iv) limit its exposure to variable rate debt. The
Company intends to maintain a debt-to-market capitalization ratio of
approximately 50% or less. The Company, however, may from time to time re-
evaluate this policy and decrease or increase such ratio accordingly in light of
then current economic conditions, relative costs to the Company of debt and
equity capital, market values of the properties and other factors.
Expansion and Improvement of Manufactured Home Community Properties
The Company will seek to increase the income generated from its manufactured
home communities by expanding the number of sites available to be leased to
residents if justified by local market conditions and permitted by zoning and
other applicable laws, and by filling vacant sites. During 2000, the Company
substantially completed the development of 275 expansion sites. As of December
31, 2000, the Company owned undeveloped land adjacent to existing communities
containing approximately 4,600 expansion sites, which are zoned for
manufactured housing. The undeveloped land will facilitate additional growth to
the extent market conditions warrant. In addition, where appropriate, the
Company will consider upgrading or adding facilities and amenities to certain
communities in order to make those communities more attractive in their market.
The Company is currently involved in seven joint ventures to construct ground-up
"greenfield communities". In the majority of the arrangements, the Company acts
as the developer or co-developer, performing all accounting and property
management functions and the Company acts as a lender to finance the development
costs. As such, the Company advances amounts to the joint ventures to fund
construction and recognizes the related interest income as earned. The Company
primarily borrows on its line of credit to fund the advances and, accordingly,
includes the related borrowing costs in interest expense and related debt in its
balance sheet. In the majority of the arrangements, the Company has an option
to purchase the completed community when it reaches a pre-determined occupancy
rate. The Company is also involved in two joint ventures in which its joint
venture partner is constructing the communities. The Company has similar
arrangements to lend these joint ventures funds to finance development. The
Company accounts for joint ventures that it does not control utilizing the
equity method of accounting.
2000 Property Acquisitions
During 2000, the Company completed two acquisitions in Alabama and Georgia of
410 homesites for $4,150,000. In addition, the Company acquired land to be used
for future development for a total of $3,427,000.
Sales Brokerage and Finance
The Company conducts its sales and brokerage activities through CSI, which is
operated as a taxable subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. During 2000, CSI
sold 562 new or pre-owned homes and brokered the sales of 1,201 homes. CSI also
has a Financial Services Division, which arranges financing and insurance
services for prospective residents. During 2000, the Financial Services
Division arranged financing on approximately 770 loans.
Competition
Many of the Properties are located in developed areas that include other
manufactured home communities. The number of competitive manufactured home
community properties in a particular area could have a material effect on the
Company's ability to lease sites at its communities and the rents charged.
5
In addition, other forms of multi-family residential properties and single-
family housing provide housing alternatives to residents.
Employees
As of December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately 1,200 full-time
employees. The Company utilizes a resident administrator for the on-site
administration of each of the Properties. Important duties of on-site
administrators, as well as the office manager, include extensive contact with
residents through initial introduction to community guidelines and on-going
accessibility for resident assistance. Typically, clerical and maintenance
workers are employed to assist in the management and care of residents and the
properties. Direct supervision of on-site administrators is the responsibility
of the Company's regional vice presidents and managers and four divisional
presidents. These individuals have significant experience in addressing the
needs of residents and in finding or creating innovative approaches to value
maximization and increasing cash flow from property operations. Approximately 90
corporate employees, who assist on-site administrators in all the property
management functions, also support field management staff.
Commitment to resident satisfaction is demonstrated by ongoing training that the
Company provides for on-site staff. Community administrators meet periodically
at regional and divisional seminars to review Company philosophy and policy, to
discuss relevant administration issues and solutions and to share ideas and
experiences.
Tax Status
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company generally
will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent it distributes 95
percent of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders. REITs are subject to a
number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to
qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to Federal
income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable
income at regular corporate rates. As a REIT, the Company is subject to certain
state and local taxes on its income and property and Federal income and excise
taxes to the extent of its undistributed income.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Information
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Certain statements in this discussion constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Such forward-looking statements may involve the Company's plans,
objectives and expectations, which are dependent upon a number of factors,
including site expansions, acquisitions, development and other new business
initiatives which are all subject to a number of contingency factors such as the
effects of national and local economic conditions, changes in interest rates,
supply and demand for affordable housing and the condition of the capital
markets that may prevent the Company from achieving its objectives.

Item 2. Properties
- ------- ----------
On December 31, 2000, the Properties consisted of 166 manufactured home
communities containing 52,347 homesites and 1,359 park model/RV sites, in 28
states, with amenities designed for either retirement or family living. The
Company also fee managed 44 manufactured home communities containing 9,200 sites
in 16 states. The Company also owned land adjacent to certain existing
communities containing approximately 4,600 expansion sites, which, although not
yet developed, was zoned for manufactured housing.
On December 31, 2000, the Properties had an occupancy rate of approximately 91.1
percent with weighted average rent for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $316
per month. This compares to an occupancy rate of 91.7 percent and weighted
average rent of $302 per month for the prior year. Weighted average rent is
calculated as rental and utility income for the period, on a monthly basis,
divided by the weighted average occupied sites. Weighted average occupancy is
computed by averaging the number of revenue producing sites at the end of each
month in the period.
The Company believes that the Properties provide amenities and common facilities
that create a safe and attractive community for residents. All of the
Properties provide residents with appealing amenities with most offering a
clubhouse, a swimming pool and playgrounds. Many Properties offer additional
amenities such as sauna/whirlpool spas, indoor pools, tennis courts, libraries,
shuffleboard courts, basketball courts, golf courses, day care facilities,
exercise rooms, marinas and laundry facilities.
Since residents own their homes, it is their responsibility to maintain their
homes and surrounding area. The communities have extensive guidelines for
maintenance. It is management's role to provide maintenance of common areas,
facilities and amenities and to ensure that residents comply with community
policies. The Company holds periodic meetings of its property management
personnel for training and implementation of the Company's strategies, and
property administrators make a daily inspection of the properties. The Company
believes that, due in part to this strategy, the Properties historically have
had and will continue to have low turnover and high occupancy rates. Since
1989, the Properties have averaged an annual turnover of homes (where the home
is moved out of the community) of three to four percent.
Leases
The typical lease entered into between the resident and one of the Company's
manufactured home communities for the rental of a site is month-to-month or
year-to-year, renewable upon consent of both parties or, in some instances, as
provided by statute.
Property Information
The Company classifies all its properties in either the Stable Portfolio or the
Active Expansion Portfolio. The Stable Portfolio includes the communities where
the Company does not have, or has not recently had, expansion of the community.
These communities normally have stable occupancy rates. The Active Expansion
are those properties where the Company is currently, or has recently, expanded
the community by adding homesites to the available homesites for rent.
Generally, these communities will have a lower occupancy rate than the Stable
Portfolio as they are in the lease-up phase. In addition, the Company owns
three park model/RV communities.
The following table sets forth certain information, as of December 31, 2000,
regarding the Properties, excluding the three park model/RV communities.

Management believes that FFO is an important and widely used measure of the
operating performance of REITs, which provides a relevant basis for
comparison among REITs. FFO (i) does not represent cash flow from
operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles; (ii)
should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of
operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and
financing activities; and (iii) is not an alternative to cash flows as a
measure of liquidity. FFO is calculated as follows:

NAREIT has revised its definition of FFO. The company adopted the new definition
effective January 1, 2000. The new definition of FFO substantially eliminates
the add-back of non-recurring items in the calculation of FFO. The application
of this new definition decreased FFO in 1998 by $375,000, and had no effect on
any other years reported.

Item 7. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
- ------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
- -------------
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Certain statements in this discussion constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Such forward-looking statements may involve the Company's plans,
objectives and expectations, which are dependent upon a number of factors,
including site expansions, acquisitions, development and other new business
initiatives which are all subject to a number of contingency factors such as the
effects of national and local economic conditions, changes in interest rates,
supply and demand for affordable housing and the condition of the capital
markets that may prevent the Company from achieving its objectives.
Overview
The Company is one of the largest owner/managers of manufactured home
communities in the United States. The Company added 8,500 manufactured home
sites to its portfolio over the three-year period ended December 31, 2000. At
the end of this period, the Company's portfolio comprised 166 manufactured home
communities containing 52,347 manufactured homesites and 1,359 park model/RV
sites, located in 28 states.
The Company provides property management services to N'Tandem Trust ("N'Tandem")
and other manufactured home community owners, with an aggregate of 9,200
homesites. In addition, the Company owns approximately ten percent of N'Tandem
outstanding equity, has made loans to N'Tandem, and provides advisory services
to N'Tandem.
Company growth since the beginning of 1998 can be attributed to community
acquisitions, increased operating performance at existing communities, community
expansions, and new community development. During 1998, the Company acquired 34
communities in four separate portfolio acquisitions, containing an aggregate of
7,045 manufactured homesites and 1,359 park model/RV sites. During 1999 and
2000, the Company acquired two communities each year, containing a total of
1,034 sites (624 sites in 1999 and 410 sites in 2000).
Since its organization, the Company has elected to qualify as a REIT under the
Internal Revenue Code and thus does not generally pay Federal corporate income
taxes on its earnings to the extent that such earnings are distributed to
shareholders.
The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through CP Limited
Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") in which it owned a combined 89
percent general partner interest as of December 31, 2000.

Weighted average monthly rent per site $ 316 $ 302 $ 316 $ 302
For the year ended December 31, 2000, income before minority interests was
$48,722,000, an increase of $3,760,000 from the year ended December 31, 1999.
The increase was due primarily to increased net operating income from the Core
1999 Portfolio and acquisitions. The increase in net operating income from the
Company's Core 1999 Portfolio was due to increased occupancy and rental
increases partially offset by general operating expense increases. Rental
revenue for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $186,963,000, an increase of
$9,174,000 from 1999. Approximately 17 percent of the increase was due to
acquisitions, net of dispositions, and 83 percent was due to rental increases
and occupancy gains in the Company's Core 1999 Portfolio.
Weighted average occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2000 was 47,466 sites
compared with 47,181 sites for the same period in 1999. The occupancy rate for
the total portfolio was 91.1 percent on 52,347 sites as of December 31, 2000,
compared to 91.7 percent on 51,659 sites as of December 31, 1999. The occupancy
rate on the stabilized portfolio (communities where the Company does not have or
has not recently had, expansion of the community) was 92.5 percent as of
December 31, 2000. The Company also added 275 available sites to its portfolio
through expansion of its communities. On a per-site basis, weighted monthly
rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $316 compared with $302
for the same period in 1999.
Interest income primarily includes interest on notes receivable and advances to
affiliates. The increase of $3,998,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 from
the same period in 1999 is due primarily to increased interest income from
Company-funded development projects, increased lending activity, as well as an
increase in interest rates.
Management fee and other income primarily includes management fee and
transaction fee income for the management of 44 manufactured home communities
and equity earnings from CSI. Included in this amount is approximately $3.2
million of acquisition and transaction fees due to N'Tandem's acquisitions
activity in 2000. Also included in management fee and other income is
approximately $2.1 million of management and advisory fees from the N'Tandem
properties. The Company expects to continue to earn management, advisory and
other fees from N'Tandem in 2001, and estimates the recurring component of
revenues from N'Tandem and it's properties to stabilize.
Property operating and maintenance expense for the year ended December 31, 2000
increased by $1,343,000 or 2.7 percent from the prior year. The majority of the
increase was due to operating expense increases in the Company's Core 1999
Portfolio, and to a lesser extent, acquisitions. On a per site basis, monthly
weighted average property operating and maintenance expense increased to $91.03
per site, or 2.0 percent.
Real estate taxes for the year ended December 31, 2000 increased by $751,000 or
5.9 percent from the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase is due primarily
to acquisitions, expansions of communities, and increases in property tax rates.
17
On a per site basis, monthly weighted average real estate taxes were $23.57 in
2000 compared to $22.39 in 1999, an increase of 5.3 percent. Real estate taxes
may increase or decrease due to inflation, expansions and improvements of
communities, as well as changes in taxation in the tax jurisdictions in which
the Company operates.
Administrative expense in 2000 was 5.1 percent of total revenues as compared to
5.2 percent in 1999.
Interest and related amortization costs increased for the year ended December
31, 2000 by $4,082,000, as compared with the year ended December 31, 1999. The
increase is attributed primarily to the indebtedness incurred to finance
acquisitions, development, and lending activities. Interest expense as a
percentage of average debt outstanding decreased to approximately 7.3 percent in
2000 from 7.4 percent in 1999.
Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2000 increased $2,094,000
from the same period a year ago. The increase is directly attributed to
acquisitions, expansions, and additions. Depreciation expense as a percentage of
average depreciable rental property in 2000 remained relatively unchanged from
1999.
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1999 to the year ended December 31,
1998
The following table summarizes certain information relative to the Company's
properties, as of and for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The

For the year ended December 31, 1999, income before minority interests was
$44,962,000, an increase of $10,476,000 from the year ended December 31, 1998.
The increase was due primarily to acquisitions and increased net operating
income from the Core 1998 Portfolio. The increase in net operating income from
the Company's Core 1998 Portfolio was due to increased occupancy and rental
increases partially offset by general operating expense increases. Rental
revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $177,789,000, an increase of
$10,583,000 from 1998. Approximately 30 percent of the increase was due to
acquisitions, net of dispositions, and 70 percent was due to rental increases
and occupancy gains in the Company's Core 1998 Portfolio.
Weighted average occupancy for the year ended December 31, 1999 was 47,181 sites
compared with 45,882 sites for the same period in 1998. The Company also added
525 available sites to its portfolio through the expansion of its communities.
The occupancy rate for the total portfolio was 91.7 percent on 51,659 sites as
of December 31, 1999, compared to 92.4 percent on 51,101 sites as of December
31, 1998. The occupancy rate on the stabilized portfolio was 93.2 percent as of
December 31, 1999. On a per site basis, weighted average monthly rental revenue
for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $302 compared with $292 for the same
period in 1998. For the Company's Core 1998 Portfolio, on a per site basis,
weighted average monthly rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999 was
$307 compared with $295 for the same period in 1998, an increase of 4.0 percent.
18
Interest income primarily includes interest on notes receivable and advances to
joint ventures affiliates. The increase of $3,115,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1999 from the same period in 1998 is due primarily to increased
interest income from Company-funded development projects, as well as increases
in interest rates.
Management fee and other income primarily include management fee and transaction
fee income for the management of 44 manufactured home communities, and equity
earnings from CSI. The increase in 1999 from 1998 is due primarily to increased
development activities in which the Company funds the development costs and
recognizes interest income and expenses and increased equity earnings from CSI.
Property operating and maintenance expense for the year ended December 31, 1999
increased by $3,412,000 or 7.3 percent from the same period a year ago. The
majority of the increase was due to increases in the Company's Core 1998
Portfolio, and to a lesser extent, acquisitions. On a per site basis, monthly
weighted average property operating and maintenance expense increased to $89.21
per site, or 4.3 percent.
Real estate taxes for the year ended December 31, 1999 increased by $424,000 or
3.5 percent from the year ended December 31, 1998. The increase is due primarily
to acquisitions and expansions of communities and general increases. On a site
basis, monthly weighted average real estate taxes were $22.39 in 1999 compared
to $22.25 in 1998, an increase of .63 percent. Real estate taxes may increase or
decrease due to inflation, expansions and improvements of communities, as well
as changes in tax rates in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
Administrative expense in 1999 was 5.2 percent of total revenues as compared to
4.8 percent in 1998.
Interest and related amortization costs for the year ended December 31, 1999
increased by $1,031,000, as compared with the year ended December 31, 1998. The
increase is attributed primarily to the indebtedness incurred to finance
acquisitions and development. Interest expense as a percentage of average debt
outstanding decreased to approximately 7.4 percent for 1999 from 7.7 percent in
1998.
Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 1999, increased $2,168,000
from the same period a year ago. The increase is directly attributed to
acquisitions and expansions. Depreciation expense as a percentage of average
depreciable rental property in 1999 remained relatively unchanged from 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $84,961,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2000, compared to $77,464,000 for the same period in 1999. The
increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to the
increase in net operating income.
Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2000 was
$73,123,000. This amount represents acquisitions, joint venture investments and
advances, lending activity, capital expenditures and development costs. During
2000, the Company acquired two communities with a total of 410 sites and
purchased development properties in Michigan and Iowa. These acquisitions were
financed primarily by borrowings under the Company's lines of credit.
Net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2000 was
$12,087,000. This consisted primarily of $81,534,000 in dividends and
distributions paid to shareholders and OP Unitholders, $214,997,000 in payment
of debt, and repurchasing approximately $11.3 million of common shares, offset
partially by proceeds from debt issuances of $295,295,000.
19
During 2000, the Company invested approximately $10,100,000 in the expansion of
its existing communities, resulting in the addition of 275 available sites to
its portfolio. In addition, during 2000, the Company invested or advanced
$22,000,000 to certain affiliates of the Company. This consisted primarily of
approximately $5,500,000 to joint ventures, through which the Company, or its
joint venture partner is developing manufactured home communities, and
$13,800,000 to N'Tandem, an entity in which the Company owns approximately 10
percent of its outstanding equity and has made loans aggregating $38,466,000 as
of December 31, 2000. For the year ended December 31, 2000, recurring property
capital expenditures, other than development costs, were approximately
$7,400,000. Capital expenditures have historically been financed out of
operating cash flow and it is the Company's intention that such future
expenditures will also be financed out of operating cash flow.
At December 31, 2000, the Company had a $100 million line of credit arrangement
with BankOne, NA acting as lead agent for a bank group to provide financing for
future construction, acquisitions and general business obligations (the "BankOne
Credit Facility"). The line of credit is unsecured, bears interest at the prime
rate of interest or, at the Company's option, LIBOR plus 80 basis points. The
line was scheduled to mature in 2001. In February 2001, the Company renegotiated
the BankOne Credit Facility and increased it from $100 million to $125 million.
The term of the new facility is three years and bears interest at LIBOR plus 90
basis points. In addition, the Company has a $7.5 million unsecured line of
credit from US Bank, which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis
points and matures in October 2001 (the "US Bank Facility" and, together with
the BankOne Credit Facility the "Credit Facilities"). As of December 31, 2000,
approximately $74.7 million was outstanding under the Company's Credit
Facilities and the Company had $32.8 million available in additional borrowing
capacity, which was increased to approximately $57.8 million in available
capacity with the February 2001 expansion of the BankOne Credit Facility.
As of December 31, 2000, the Company had outstanding, in addition to the Credit
Facilities, $320 million of unsecured senior debt with a weighted average
interest rate and remaining maturity of 7.5 percent and 3.7 years, respectively,
and $136.9 million of secured mortgage debt with a weighted average interest
rate and remaining maturity of 7.8 percent and 8.9 years, respectively. As of
December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $535 million of total debt
outstanding, representing approximately 34 percent of the Company's total market
capitalization. All of the debt is fixed rate debt, other than the Company's
Credit Facilities, and has a weighted average interest rate of 7.6 percent.
In June 2000, the Company issued $116 million of 7.8% fixed rate mortgage debt,
maturing in 2010, and collateralized by seven properties. Also in 2000, the
Company issued a total of $150 million of Unsecured Senior Notes, $100 million
at 8.3% maturing March 1, 2005 and $50 million at 8% maturing August 1, 2003,
resulting in net proceeds of $149 million. During 2000, the Company issued and
repaid a $30 million unsecured short-term loan.
On February 29, 2000, the Company announced the establishment of a share
repurchase program pursuant to which it may repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of
common stock from time to time. As of December 31, 2000, the Company repurchased
453,900 shares for approximately $11.3 million.
In addition to repayment of long-term borrowings and amounts outstanding under
the Credit Facilities, future acquisitions of communities and land for
development and new community development activities represent the principal
long-term liquidity needs of the Company. The Company does not expect to
generate sufficient funds from operations to finance these long-term liquidity
needs and instead intends to meet its long-term liquidity requirements through
additional borrowing under the Credit Facilities or other lines of credit, the
assumption of existing secured or unsecured indebtedness and, depending on
market conditions and capital availability factors, the issuance of additional
equity or debt securities.
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including
expansion activities and capital expenditure requirements, through cash flow
from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under the Credit Facilities and
other lines of credit.
20
Inflation
All of the leases or terms of tenants' occupancies at the communities allow for
at least annual rental adjustments. In addition, all leases are short-term
(generally one year or less) and enable the Company to seek market rentals upon
reletting the sites. Such leases generally minimize the risk to the Company of
any adverse effect of inflation.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activities. This new standard requires that all companies record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair
value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives
would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. In June 1999, FASB issued SFAS No. 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the
Effective Date of SFAS No. 133-an amendment of SFAS No. 133." SFAS No. 137
defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000.
In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,"Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No.
133". This statement amends certain requirements of SFAS 133. The Company will
prospectively adopt SFAS No. 138 on January 1, 2001, the required date of
adoption. The adoption of SFAS No. 138 will not have a material impact on the
financial statements of the Company, but will result in the reclassification of
certain deferred gains and losses to accumulated other comprehensive income.
In 2000, the Company adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101 released by
the Securities and Exchange Commission, entitled "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements". SAB 101 establishes guidelines in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to the recognition of revenue in financial
statements based on specific criteria. The adoption of SAB 101 had no material
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Other
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as consolidated net income of the Company
without giving effect to gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of
property and rental property depreciation and amortization. Management believes
that FFO is an important and widely used measure of the operating performance of
REITs, which provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. FFO (i) does
not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted
accounting principles; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net
income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating,
investing and financing activities; and (iii) is not an alternative to cash
flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO is calculated as follows:

NAREIT has revised its definition of FFO. The Company adopted the new definition
effective January 1, 2000. The new definition of FFO substantially eliminates
the add-back of the non-recurring items in the calculation of FFO. The
application of this new definition decreased FFO in 1998 by $375,000, and had no
effect on any other years reported.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- -------- ----------------------------------------------------------
The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. Management has
and will continue to manage interest rate risk by (1) maintaining a conservative
ratio of fixed-rate, long-term debt to total debt such that variable rate
exposure is kept at an acceptable level and (2) taking advantage of favorable
market conditions for long-term debt and/or equity. As of December 31, 2000, the
Company's Credit Facilities represented its only variable rate debt.
The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2000, concerning
the Company's debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled
maturity, weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value ("FV"):
For the Year Ended December 31,
2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 Thereafter Total FV
Debt obligations
Fixed rate $ 1,320 $ 1,842 $ 121,483 $ 103,338 $ 107,947 $ 120,969 $ 456,899 $ 454,079
Average interest rate 7.9% 7.9% 7.7% 6.8% 8.5% 7.8% 7.6%
Variable rate $ 74,730 $ 74,730 $ 74,730
Average interest rate 7.5%
Total debt $ 76,050 $ 1,842 $ 121,483 $ 103,338 $ 107,947 $ 120,969 $ 531,629 $ 528,809
The Company faces market risk relating to its fixed-rate debt upon re-financing
of such debt and depending upon prevailing interest rates at the time of such
re-finance. As a result of the Company's successful re-financing and extension
of its fixed-rate debt, as illustrated in the above chart, it will not need to
re-finance any of its fixed-rate debt until 2003.
In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable rate debt
and believes that a 1% increase in LIBOR rates would result in an approximate
$747,000 increase in interest expense based on $74.7 million of variable rate
debt outstanding at December 31, 2000.
The fair value of the Company's long term debt is estimated based on discounted
cash flows at interest rates that management believes reflects the risks
associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
______
1. Organization and Formation of Company:
-------------------------------------
Chateau Communities, Inc. (the "Company"), a real estate investment trust, was
formed in November 1993 as Chateau Properties, Inc. In 1997, the Company merged
with ROC Communities, Inc. ("ROC").
The Company considers itself to be engaged in only one industry segment. The
Company is engaged in the business of owning and operating manufactured housing
community properties primarily through CP Limited Partnership (the "Operating
Partnership"). As of December 31, 2000, the Company owned 166 properties
containing an aggregate of 52,347 homesites and 1,359 park model/RV sites,
located in 28 states. Approximately 31 percent of these homesites were in
Michigan and 25 percent were in Florida. The Company also fee managed 44
properties containing an aggregate of 9,200 homesites. A manufactured housing
community is real estate designed and improved with sites for placement of
manufactured homes. The owner of the home leases the site from the Company,
generally for a term of one year of less.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
------------------------------------------
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the
Company, its wholly owned qualified REIT subsidiaries and its Operating
Partnership. The Company and ROC are general partners of the Operating
Partnership. All significant inter-entity balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The Company conducts manufactured home sales and brokerage activities through
its taxable subsidiary Community Sales, Inc. ("CSI"). The Company owns 100% of
the preferred stock of CSI and is entitled to 100% of its cash flow. The Company
accounts for its investment in CSI utilizing the equity method of accounting,
since the Company does not own any of the voting common stock of this entity.
Revenue Recognition
Rental income is recognized when earned and due from residents. The leases
entered into by residents for the rental of a site are generally for terms not
longer than one year and are renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in
some instances, as provided by statute. Rent received in advance is deferred and
recognized in income when earned.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT)
under Section 856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The
Company generally will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent it
distributes at least 95% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. REITs
are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the
Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be
subject to Federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax)
on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. The Company remains subject to
certain state and local taxes on its income and property as well as Federal
income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.

______
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. The conversion of an OP Unit to
common stock has no effect on earnings per common share since the earnings of an
OP Unit are equivalent to the earnings of a share of common stock. Diluted
earnings per common share are computed assuming the exercise of all outstanding
stock options that would have a dilutive effect.
Rental Property
Rental property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Management
evaluates the recoverability of its investment in rental property whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that full asset recoverability is
questionable. Management's assessment of the recoverability of its rental
property includes, but is not limited to, recent operating results, expected net
operating cash flow and management's plans for future operations. If a rental
property is determined to be significantly impaired, the asset is written down
to its estimated fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999
there were no impairment conditions at any of the Company's properties.
Depreciation
Depreciation on manufactured home communities is computed primarily on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The
estimated useful lives of the various classes of rental property assets are
primarily as follows:
Estimated Useful
Class of Asset Lives (Years)
- -------------- ----------------
Manufactured home community improvements 20 to 30
Community buildings 25 to 30
Furniture and other equipment 3 to 10
Maintenance, repairs, and minor improvements to rental properties are expensed
when incurred. Major improvements and renewals are capitalized. When rental
property assets are sold or otherwise retired, the cost of such assets, net of
accumulated depreciation, compared to the sales proceeds, are recognized in
income as gains or losses on disposition.
Capitalized Interest
Interest is capitalized on development projects during periods of construction
through the substantial completion of the site. Interest capitalized by the
Company for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, 1998, was $1,646,000,
$1,249,000, and $579,000 respectively.
Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less
are considered to be cash equivalents.

______
Debt Issuance Costs
Costs incurred to obtain financing and costs of interest rate protection are
deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the
effective interest method, over the term of the related loans or agreements.
These costs, net of accumulated amortization, are included in prepaid expenses
and other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company's financial instruments other than debt
approximate their carrying values at December 31, 2000 and 1999. The fair value
of the Company's debt at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was estimated to be $533
million and $447 million, respectively, based on current interest rates for
comparable loans.
Minority Interests
Minority interests include common operating partnership units ("OP Units") that
are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of the Company's common
stock. Issuance of additional shares of common stock or OP Units changes the
percentage ownership of both the minority interests and the Company. Since an OP
Unit is equivalent to a common share (due to, among other things, its
exchangeability for a common stock share), such transactions are treated as
capital transactions and result in an equity transfer adjustment among
shareholders' equity and minority interests in the Company's consolidated
balance sheet to account for the change in the respective ownership in the
underlying equity of the Operating Partnership.
Income before minority interests is ascribed to the holders of common OP Units
based on their respective weighted average ownership percentage of the Operating
Partnership. The ownership percentage is determined by dividing the number of
common OP Units held by the limited partners by the total common OP Units
outstanding, including the OP Units held by the Company.
Also included in minority interests is approximately $73 million, which
represents 1.5 million 8.125% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units
("Preferred Units"). The Preferred Units are exchangeable on or after April 20,
2008 for authorized but unissued shares of 8.125% Series A Cumulative Redeemable
Preferred Stock of the Company.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles involves the use of certain management estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year information to
conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact
on net operating results previously reported.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activities. This new standard requires that all companies record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair
value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives
would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. In June 1999, FASB issued SFAS No. 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the
Effective Date of SFAS No. 133-an amendment of SFAS No. 133." SFAS No. 137
defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000.
In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,"Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No.
133". This statement amends certain requirements of SFAS 133. The Company will
prospectively adopt SFAS No. 138 on January 1, 2001, the required date of
adoption. The adoption of SFAS No. 138 will not have a material impact on the
financial statements of the Company, but will result in the reclassification of
certain deferred gains and losses to accumulated other comprehensive income.
In 2000, the Company adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101 released by
the Securities and Exchange Commission, entitled "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements." SAB 101 establishes guidelines in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to the recognition of revenue in financial
statements based on specific criteria. The adoption of SAB 101 had no material
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
3. Common Stock and Related Transactions:

Development joint ventures
- ---------------------------
The Company is currently involved in seven joint ventures to construct ground-up
"greenfield communities". In the majority of the arrangements, the Company acts
as the developer or co-developer, performing all accounting and property
management functions, and the Company acts as a lender to finance the
development costs. As such, the Company advances amounts to the joint ventures
to fund construction and recognizes the related interest income as earned. The
Company primarily borrows on its line of credit to fund the advances and,
accordingly, includes the related borrowing costs in interest expense and
related debt in its balance sheet. In the majority of the arrangements, the
Company has the option to purchase the completed community when it reaches a
pre-determined occupancy rate. The Company is also involved in two joint
ventures in which its joint venture partner is constructing the communities. The
Company has similar arrangements to lend these joint ventures funds to finance
development. The Company accounts for its joint ventures which it does not
control utilizing the equity method of accounting.

10. Savings Plan:
-------------
The Company has a qualified retirement plan designed to qualify under Section
401 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Savings Plan"). The Savings Plan allows
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to defer a portion of their
compensation on a pre-tax basis subject to certain maximum amounts.
Contributions by the Company are discretionary and determined by the Company's
management. Company contributions are allocated to each participant based on the
relative compensation of the participant to the compensation of all
participants. The Company contributed approximately $500,000, $560,000, and
$550,000 for the Plan years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 respectively.
11. Related Party Transactions:
---------------------------
Rental expense of approximately $130,000 annually has been incurred for leased
space in an office building owned by certain officers and equity owners. The
office lease expires November 2001.
The Company, through CSI, purchases manufactured home inventory for resale from
Clayton Homes, Inc. ("Clayton Homes"), which is affiliated with one of the
Company's directors. During 1998 and 1999, CSI purchased 22 homes and one home
respectively for a cost of approximately $540,000 and $32,000 from Clayton
Homes.
In addition, when CSI sells homes, the purchaser may obtain financing from
Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance, Inc. ("Vanderbilt"), which is also affiliated
with the same director. In certain cases, for homes sold before June 1998,
Vanderbilt has recourse to the Company if the loans are not repaid. As of
December 31, 2000 there is a total of approximately $13.2 million of such
amounts that are recourse to the Company.
Included in management and other income is $4,549,000, $1,610,000 and $582,000
of management and other fee income received from N'Tandem for the years ended

12. Contingencies:
--------------
Several claims and legal actions arising from the normal course of business have
been asserted against the Company, and are pending final resolution. In the
opinion of management, none of these matters will have a material adverse effect
upon the results of operations, financial condition or cash flows of the
