Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
As of September 30, 1996
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS:
Indiantown Cogeneration, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a special purpose
Delaware limited partnership formed on October 4, 1991. The general
partners are Toyan Enterprises ("Toyan"), a California corporation and a
special purpose indirect subsidiary of PG&E Enterprises, and Palm Power
Corporation ("Palm"), a Delaware corporation and a special purpose indirect
subsidiary of Bechtel Enterprises, Inc.("Bechtel Enterprises"). The sole
limited partner is TIFD III-Y, Inc. ("TIFD"), a special purpose indirect
subsidiary of General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC"). During 1994,
the Partnership formed its sole, wholly owned subsidiary, Indiantown
Cogeneration Funding Corporation ("ICL Funding"), to act as agent for, and
co-issuer with, the Partnership in accordance with the 1994 bond offering
discussed in Note 4. ICL Funding has no separate operations and has only
$100 in assets and capitalization.
The Partnership was formed to develop, construct, and operate an
approximately 330 megawatt (net) pulverized coal-fired cogeneration
facility (the "Facility") located on an approximately 240 acre site in
southwestern Martin County, Florida. The Facility was designed to produce
electricity for sale to Florida Power & Light Company ("FPL") and will also
supply steam to Caulkins Indiantown Citrus Co. ("Caulkins") for its plant
located near the Facility.
The Partnership was in the development stage through December 21, 1995
and commenced commercial operations on December 22, 1995 (the "Commercial
Operation Date"). The accompanying consolidated statement of operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 reflects operations
through the entire quarter and since the end of the last fiscal year,
respectively. The Partnership's continued existence is dependent on the
ability of the Partnership to sustain successful operations. Management of
the Partnership is of the opinion that the assets of the Partnership are
realizable at their current carrying value.
The net profits and losses of the Partnership are allocated to Toyan,
Palm and TIFD (collectively, the "Partners") based on the following
ownership percentages:
Toyan 48%
Palm 12%
TIFD 40%
All distributions other than liquidating distributions will be made based
on the Partners' percentage interest as shown above, in accordance with
the project documents and at such times and in such amounts as the
Board of Control of the Partnership determines. The Partners
contributed, pursuant to an equity commitment agreement, approximately
$140,000,000 of equity when commercial operation commenced in December
1995.
2. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: The consolidated balance sheet as of September
30, 1996, and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine
months ended on September 30, 1996 and 1995 and the consolidated
statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996, have been prepared by the Partnership, without audit and in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these financial
statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Partnership as of September 30, 1996, results of operations for the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, and cash flows
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.
The financial statements and related notes contained herein should be
read in conjunction with the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1995.
Investments Held by Trustee The investments held by trustee represent bond
and equity proceeds held by a bond trustee/disbursement agent and are
carried at cost which approximates market. The proceeds include
$12,501,000 of restricted tax-exempt debt service reserve required by
the financing documents. The Partnership also maintains restricted
investments in the amount of accrued principal and interest payables.
Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are
recorded at actual cost. Substantially all property, plant and
equipment consist of the Facility, which is depreciated on a
straight-line basis over the useful life of the Facility, estimated to
be 35 years. Other property and equipment are depreciated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated economic or service lives of the
respective assets (ranging from three to ten years). Routine
maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
New Accounting Pronouncement
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
of" ("SFAS No. 121"). SFAS No. 121, which will be adopted for the
Partnership's 1996 annual financial statements, establishes criteria for
recognizing and measuring impairment losses when recovery of recorded
long-lived asset values is uncertain. Management anticipates that adoption
of this pronouncement will not impact the Partnership's financial condition
or results of operations.
Equity Contribution Agreement Pursuant to an Equity Contribution Agreement,
dated as of November 1, 1994, between TIFD and NationsBank of Florida,
N.A. (succeeded by The Bank of New York Trust Company of Florida, N.A.)
(the "Trustee"), the Partners contributed approximately $140,000,000 of
equity on December 26, 1995. Proceeds were used to repay the
$139,000,000 outstanding under the Equity Loan Agreement. The
remaining $1,000,000 was deposited with the Trustee according to a
disbursement agreement among the Partnership, the Trustee and the other
lenders and is included in investments held by trustee in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1995 and
September 30, 1996.
3. DEPOSITS: In 1991, in accordance with a contract between the
Partnership and Martin County, the Partnership provided Martin County
with a security deposit in the amount of $149,357 to secure
installation and maintenance of required landscaping materials. This
amount is included in current assets as of December 31, 1995 and in
noncurrent assets as of December 31, 1994. The landscaping has been
completed and the Partnership has applied to the County for a return of
funds in excess of the required deposit as security for the first year
maintenance.
In 1991, in accordance with the Planned Unit Development Zoning
Agreement between the Partnership and Martin County, the Partnership
deposited $1,000,000 in trust with the Board of County Commissioners of
Martin County (the "PUD Trustee"). Income from this trust will be used
solely for projects benefiting the community of Indiantown. On July 23,
2025, the PUD Trustee is required to return the deposit to the Partnership.
As of December 31, 1995, the estimated present value of this deposit of
approximately $60,000 has been included in deposits in the accompanying
balance sheets. The remaining balance has been included in property plant,
and equipment as part of total construction expenses. 4. FAIR VALUE OF
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following table presents the carrying amounts and
estimated fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments at
September 30, 1996. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", defines the fair
market value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing
parties.
Carrying Amount Fair Value
Financial Liabilities
Tax-Exempt Bonds $ 125,010,000 $141,684,705
Taxable Bonds $ 500,603,000 $563,326,062
For the Tax Exempt Bonds and First Mortgage Bonds, the fair values of the
Partnership's bonds payable are based on the stated rates of the Tax
Exempt Bonds and First Mortgage Bonds and current market interest rates
to estimate market values for the Tax Exempt Bonds and the First
Mortgage Bonds.
The carrying amounts of the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, deposits, prepaid expenses, investments held by
trustee, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued interest
approximate fair value because of the short maturities of these
instruments.
Item 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Partnership and the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this report.
General
The Partnership is primarily engaged in the completion of construction,
ownership and operation of a non-utility electric generating facility.
Since its inception, and until December 21, 1995, the Partnership was in
the development stage and had no operating revenues or expenses. On
December 22, 1995 the Facility commenced commercial operation. As of
September 30, 1996, the Partnership had approximately $704 million of
property, plant and equipment consisting primarily of purchased equipment,
construction-related labor and materials, interest during construction,
financing costs and other costs directly associated with the construction
of the Facility. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the
Partnership had total operating revenues of approximately $42.6 million,
total operating costs of $26 million, and total net interest expenses of
approximately $13.7 million resulting in net income of approximately $2.9
million.
The Partnership has obtained all material environmental permits and
approvals required as of September 1996 for the operation of the Facility.
Certain of such permits and approvals are subject to periodic renewal. The
Partnership filed its application for a Title V air permit on May 24, 1996.
A permit is expected within the next two years. Certain additional permits
and approvals will be required in the future for the continued operation of
the Facility. The Partnership is not presently aware of any technical
circumstances that would prevent the issuance of such permits and approvals
or the renewal of currently existing permits.
On September 9, 1994 Costain Group PLC, parent company of Costain Coal,
Inc. ("Costain Coal"), the Facility's primary fuel supplier, announced that
it was proceeding with the sale of its U.S. coal assets. As of the end of
the second quarter of 1996, no purchase offers had been accepted, though
Costain Group PLC continued to hold discussions with interested parties.
As of the end of the third quarter of 1996, no sale had been completed. If
Costain Coal were to be sold to or merged with another entity, any
surviving corporation in a merger of Costain Coal, or any transferee of its
assets, will be required to assume Costain Coal's obligations under the
Coal Purchase Agreement. In light of the terms of the Coal Purchase
Agreement compared with similar coal supply and ash disposal agreements
which the Partnership believes are currently obtainable in the market, the
Partnership currently does not believe that the sale of Costain Coal will
have an adverse effect on the Partnership's ability to arrange for coal
supply and ash disposal services.
Results of Operations
Because the Facility entered commercial operation on December 22, 1995,
no operating results from the third quarter of last year are available.
For its first ten days of operation ending December 31, 1995, the Facility
achieved an average Capacity Billing Factor of 99.86%. For its first two
full quarters of commercial operation ending March 31, 1996, and June 30,
1996, the Facility achieved an average Capacity Billing Factor of 95.13%
and 91.82%, respectively. For the third quarter ending September 30,
1996, the Facility achieved an average Capacity Billing Factor of 92.79%.
This resulted in earning full monthly capacity payments aggregating $27.9
million and bonuses aggregating $425,885 for the quarter. The Capacity
Billing Factor measures the overall availability of the Facility, but
gives a heavier weighting to on-peak availability. During the quarter,
the Facility was dispatched by FPL and generated 611,626 megawatt-hours.
The monthly dispatch rate for the third quarter of 1996 ranged from 85% in
July to 91% in September.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On November 22, 1994 the Partnership and ICL Funding issued first
mortgage bonds in an aggregate principal amount of $505 million (the "First
Mortgage Bonds"). $236.6 million of the First Mortgage Bonds bear an
average interest rate of 9.26% and $268.4 million of the First Mortgage
Bonds bear an interest rate of 9.77%. Concurrently with the Partnership's
issuance of its First Mortgage Bonds, the Martin County Industrial
Development Authority issued $113 million of Industrial Development
Refunding Revenue Bonds (Series 1994A) which bear an interest rate of
7.875% (the "1994A Tax Exempt Bonds"). A second series of tax exempt bonds
(Series 1994B) in the approximate amount of $12 million, which bear an
interest rate of 8.05%, were issued by the Martin County Industrial
Development Authority on December 20, 1994 (the "1994B Tax Exempt Bonds"
and, together with the 1994A Tax Exempt Bonds, the "1994 Tax Exempt
Bonds"). The First Mortgage Bonds and the 1994 Tax Exempt Bonds are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Bonds."
Certain proceeds from the issuance of the First Mortgage Bonds were
used to repay $421 million of the Partnership's indebtedness and financing
fees and expenses incurred in connection with the development and
construction of the Facility and the balance of the proceeds were deposited
in various restricted funds that are being administered by an independent
disbursement agent pursuant to trust indentures and a disbursement
agreement. Funds administered by such disbursement agent are invested in
specified investments. These funds together with other funds available to
the Partnership were being used: (i) to finance completion of
construction, testing, and initial operation of the Facility; (ii) to
finance construction interest and contingency; and (iii) to provide for
initial working capital.
The proceeds of the 1994 Tax Exempt Bonds were used to refund $113
million principal amount of Industrial Development Revenue Bonds (Series
1992A and Series 1992B) previously issued by the Martin County Industrial
Development Authority for the benefit of the Partnership, and to fund, in
part, a debt service reserve account for the benefit of the holders of its
tax-exempt bonds and to complete construction of certain portions of the
Facility.
The Partnership's borrowings through September 1996 were $769 million,
of which the $139 million equity loan was repaid on December 26, 1995.
Table I illustrates the current application of borrowings (as of September
1996) compared to estimated sources and uses of funds through the
Guaranteed Completion Date (January 21, 1996) found in the Partnership's
Registration Statement (No. 33-82034) filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
TABLE I Sources and Uses of Funds
The following table sets forth the budgeted sources and uses of funds
by the Partnership as of September 30, 1996. Certain actual uses of funds
through the Substantial Completion Date shown below under "Uses as of
9/30/96" differ from the budgeted amounts shown under "Total Funds"
because, among other things, the budget was based upon a Substantial
Completion Date of January 21, 1996 (the Guaranteed Completion Date)
instead of the actual Substantial Completion Date of December 22, 1995. In
addition, certain uses for completion of construction and other costs under
the Construction Contract remain indeterminable.

of $3.9 million was made in September 1996, for Contractor performance
bonuses. (4) The Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit is available to
serve as a debt service reserve for the holders of the First Mortgage Bonds
and the Tax-Exempt Bonds. (5) The difference between the Total Sources
and Total Uses of Funds as of 9/30/96 is reflected in the Remaining Funds
column. (6) The net overrun in TOTAL USES OF FUNDS has been paid out
of remaining Owners' Contingency.
As of September 30, 1996, the borrowings included all of the available
$125 million of the proceeds of the 1994 Tax Exempt Bonds and all of the
available First Mortgage Bond proceeds. Series A-1 of the First Mortgage
Bonds, in the aggregate principal amount of $4,397,000, matured and were
repaid on June 15, 1996. Series A-2 of the First Mortgage Bonds, in the
aggregate principal amount of $4,398,000, is scheduled to mature and be
repaid on December 15, 1996. The weighted average interest rate paid by
the Partnership on its debt for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
was 9.09%. The comparable rate, including the equity loan, was 9.71% for
the same period in 1995.
The Partnership, pursuant to certain of the Project Contracts, is
required to post letters of credit which, in the aggregate, will have a
face amount of no more than $65 million. Certain of these letters of
credit have been issued pursuant to a Letter of Credit and Reimbursement
Agreement with Credit Suisse and the remaining letters of credit will be
issued when required under the Project Contracts, subject to conditions
contained in such Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement. As of
September 30, 1996, no drawings have been made on any of these letters of
credit. The Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement has a term of
seven years subject to extension at the discretion of the banks party
thereto.
The Partnership entered into a debt service reserve letter of credit
and reimbursement agreement, dated as of November 1, 1994, with Banque
Nationale de Paris pursuant to which a debt service reserve letter of
credit in the amount of approximately $60 million was issued. Such
agreement has a rolling term of five years, subject to extension at the
discretion of the banks party thereto. Drawings on the debt service
reserve letter of credit became available on the Commercial Operation Date
of the Facility to pay principal and interest on the First Mortgage Bonds,
the 1994 Tax Exempt Bonds and interest on any loans created by drawings on
such debt service reserve letter of credit. Cash and other investments
held in the debt service reserve account will be drawn on for the Tax
Exempt Bonds prior to any drawings on the debt service reserve letter of
credit. As of September 30, 1996, no drawings have been made on the debt
service reserve letter of credit.
In order to provide for the Partnership's working capital needs, the
Partnership entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement with Credit Suisse
dated as of November 1, 1994. Such Agreement has a term of seven years
subject to extension at the discretion of the banks party thereto. The
revolving credit agreement has a maximum available amount of $15 million
and may be drawn on by the Partnership from time to time. The interest
rate is based upon various short term indices at the Partnership's option
and is determined separately for each draw. As of September 30, 1996, no
working capital loans have been made to the Partnership under the working
capital loan facility.
The Partnership believes that it has adequate sources of capital to
complete final construction of the Facility.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Partnership is not currently aware of any pending or threatened
litigation that it anticipates would have a material adverse effect on the
Partnership. The Partnership has been named as a co-defendant with Bechtel
Power in a suit brought by the spouse of an employee of Bechtel Power who
died in an accident which occurred on the Facility's site. A defense
motion for summary judgment was denied as to Bechtel Power; no ruling was
made as to the Partnership. The litigation has been stayed pending the
appeal of this decision. Pursuant to the terms of the Construction
Contract, Bechtel Power has notified the Partnership that it has assumed
the defense in this case on behalf of the Partnership. Although the
ultimate resolution of this action is not currently determinable, the
Partnership believes that Bechtel Power maintains insurance coverage
adequate to cover any resulting liability and that any resulting liability
in excess of such insurance coverage should not have a material adverse
effect on the Part nership's financial position.
The Partnership's steam host, Caulkins, has been named as a defendant in a
law suit by various Florida citrus growers. The plaintiffs allege that
Caulkins did not pay the growers the proper amounts for their crops at
various times from 1989 through 1994 and are claiming $10 million in
damages. Caulkins, without admitting the veracity of the plaintiffs'
allegations, has settled with citrus growers not involved in the litigation
which represent over 95% of the fruit processed during the period which is
the subject of the lawsuit and, therefore, over 95% of the damages alleged.
While the Partnership is not and does not anticipate being involved with
this action, a significant judgment against Caulkins could have an adverse
impact on Caulkins' ability to continue purchasing steam from the
Partnership and, therefore, require the Partnership to take certain
actions, under the steam sales agreement with Caulkins and otherwise, to
preserve the Facility's status as a qualifying facility. Caulkins has
informed the Partnership of its view that the magnitude of the remaining
exposure with respect to this litigation is not material to Caulkins'
financial position. The Partnership does not, and cannot, express any
opinion as to the likelihood or remoteness of a decision being rendered
against Caulkins in this case.
Item 5 OTHER INFORMATION
Governmental Approvals
The Partnership has obtained all material environmental permits and
approvals required, as of September 1996, in order to continue commercial
operation of the Facility. The Partnership timely filed its application
for a Title V air permit on May 24, 1996. A permit is expected within the
next two years. Certain of such permits and approvals are subject to
periodic renewal. Certain additional permits and approvals will be
required in the future for the continued operation of the Facility. The
Partnership is not aware of any technical circumstances that would prevent
the issuance of such permits and approvals or the renewal of currently
issued permits.
Energy Prices
On October 1, 1996, FPL filed with the Florida Public Service
Commission its most recent projections for its 1996-1999 "as available"
energy costs (in this context, "as available" energy costs reflect actual
energy production costs avoided by FPL resulting from the purchase of
energy from the Facility and other Qualifying Facilities). The
projections filed by FPL are lower for certain periods than the energy
prices specified in the Power Purchase Agreement for energy actually
delivered by the Facility. At other times, the projections exceed the
energy prices specified in the Power Purchase Agreement. Should FPL's "as
available" energy cost projections prove to reflect actual rates, FPL may
elect, pursuant to its dispatch and control rights over the Facility set
forth in the Power Purchase Agreement, to run the Facility less frequently
or at lower loads than if the Facility's energy prices were lower than the
cost of other energy sources available to FPL. Because capacity payments
under the Power Purchase Agreement are not affected by FPL's dispatch of
the Facility and because capacity payments are expected by the Partnership
to cover all of the Partnership's fixed costs, including debt service, the
Partnership currently expects that, if the recently filed projections
prove to reflect actual rates, such rates and the resulting dispatch of
the Facility will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's
ability to service its debt. To the extent the Facility is not operated
by FPL during Caulkins' processing season (November to June), the
Partnership may elect to run the Facility at a minimum load or shut down
the Facility and run auxiliary boilers to produce steam for Caulkins in
amounts required under the Partnership's steam agreement with Caulkins.
Such operations may result in decreased net operating income for such
periods. The Partnership expects that the decrease, if any, will not be
material. To date, the Facility has not been dispatched off-line by FPL
and the Partnership has not been pe nalized for running at minimum load in
order to provide steam to Caulkins. Based upon FPL's projections, the
Partnership does not expect that, if the recently filed projections prove
to reflect actual rates, its dispatch rate will change materially during
the period covered by such projections.
