The unaudited interim financial statements include all normal and reoccurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 1997 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the statement of partners' capital (deficit) for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Results of operations for the periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The following significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1996, which require disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5): On March 20, 1997, the Partnership executed a letter of intent to sell the Radisson Plaza Hotel and Golf Course (the "Hotel") to a joint venture of Host Marriott Corporation and Interstate Hotels Corporation for a cash purchase price of $38,250,000, subject to closing adjustments (the "Marriott/Interstate Sale"). Interstate Hotels Corporation currently manages the Hotel and has done so with its wholly-owned subsidiary for more than five years. On July 15, 1997, the Partnership executed a formal purchase and sale contract with a partnership comprised of affiliates of Host Marriott Corporation and Interstate Hotels Corporation to sell the Hotel. It is currently anticipated that the closing of the Marriott/Interstate Sale will take place in August 1997, following the satisfaction of certain requirements to closing. Part I, Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources The Hotel's operations improved during 1997 principally as a result of strengthening conditions in the Los Angeles Airport hotel market and management's efforts to diversify the Hotel's customer base. The Hotel is dependent primarily on business, group, contract and leisure travel for its revenues. The improved profitability of the Hotel during the year is largely attributable to the 12.6% increase in the Hotel's average room rate, which was achieved as a result of management's efforts to reduce the volume of airline contracts and increase the number of business and group guests at higher rates. In view of the recently improved operating results of the Hotel and the strengthening hotel market, the General Partner decided to market the Hotel for sale during the fourth quarter of 1996. The General Partner subsequently retained the services of Eastdil Realty Company ("Eastdil"), a nationally-recognized real estate firm, to market the Hotel for sale with the goal of maximizing the selling price of the Hotel and ultimately distributing the net sales proceeds to partners. On March 20, 1997, the Partnership executed a Letter of Intent to sell the Hotel to a joint venture of Host Marriott Corporation and Interstate Hotels Corporation for a cash purchase price of $38,250,000, subject to closing adjustments (the "Marriott/Interstate Sale"). Interstate Hotels Corporation ("Interstate") currently manages the Hotel and has done so with its wholly-owned subsidiary for more than five years. On July 15, 1997, the Partnership executed a formal purchase and sale contract with a partnership comprised of affiliates of Host Marriott Corporation and Interstate Hotels Corporation to sell the Hotel. It is currently anticipated that the closing of the Marriott/Interstate Sale will take place in August 1997, following the satisfaction of certain requirements to closing. After consummating the Marriott/Interstate Sale, the General Partner intends to make one or more liquidating distributions to Partners. The General Partner currently estimates that the distributable cash will be approximately $5.50 per Unit. However, the final amount will be dependent on Hotel and Partnership operations until closing, the timing of the closing, closing adjustments and other factors, all of which are uncertain at this time. In view of the anticipated sale of the Hotel in 1997, the Partnership's real estate has been recorded on the Partnership's Balance Sheet as "Property held for disposition." Property held for disposition at June 30, 1997 was $36,800,000. At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $3,430,061, including cash held at the Hotel for working capital, compared to $2,100,400 at December 31, 1996. The increase is due to net cash provided by operating activities. Such cash balances are expected to be sufficient to meet the anticipated cash requirements for operations of the Partnership. Pursuant to the management agreement for the Hotel, contributions to the account for furniture, fixtures and equipment ("FF&E reserve account") are to be made over time to protect and maintain the value of the Hotel. Restricted cash was $500,270 at June 30, 1997, compared to $413,229 at December 31, 1996. The increase is due to contributions to the FF&E reserve account exceeding expenditures. Accounts receivable decreased to $1,240,004 at June 30, 1997, compared to $1,386,303 at December 31, 1996. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased to $1,576,939 at June 30, 1997, compared to $1,549,286 at December 31, 1996. The changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due primarily to differences in the timing of payments. Prepaid and other assets increased to $398,988 at June 30, 1997, compared to $382,225 at December 31, 1996, primarily due to professional fees incurred in connection with the retention of Eastdil, which were partially offset by a decrease in prepaid inventory and other property expenses. Due to affiliates was $62,746 at June 30, 1997, largely unchanged from $63,495 at December 31, 1996. Assuming the pending sale of the Hotel is consummated, the General Partner intends to make one or more liquidating distributions in 1997. Unless the Hotel is sold, the ability of the Partnership to make future distributions is dependent upon various factors, including the cash flow generated from Hotel operations, the adequacy of cash reserves, and the outcome of the Partnership's marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that future cash flow will be sufficient to fund any such distributions. Results of Operations For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership had net income of $847,458 and $1,260,262, respectively, compared with net income of $165,937 and $292,865, respectively, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996. The increases are primarily due to increases in Hotel revenues, comprised of rooms, food and beverage, telephone and other departmental income, and also due to the cessation of depreciation and amortization expenses. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997, the Hotel generated departmental income of $2,637,256 and $4,862,487, respectively, compared to $2,167,897 and $4,273,754, respectively, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996. The increases in departmental income for the 1997 periods are due to increases in total Hotel revenues as a result of higher room rates, and higher food and beverage and other revenues, which were partially offset by increases in departmental expenses. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997, unallocated Partnership and Hotel operating expenses were $1,824,972 and $3,663,801, respectively, compared to $2,039,186 and $4,057,725, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1996. The 1996 balances include depreciation and amortization. The decreases for the 1997 periods primarily are due to the Hotel no longer being depreciated as a result of it being reclassified as "Property held for disposition". These decreases were partially offset by Loss on real estate assets held for disposition, primarily due to FF&E additions being expensed as a result of the reclassification of the Partnership's real estate to "Property held for disposition". To a lesser extent, the decreases in unallocated Partnership and Hotel operating expenses were partially offset by increases in advertising and sales expenses, Hotel and other general and administrative expenses, ground rent and management fees. Advertising and sales expense increased due to an increase in administrative costs related to the advertising and sales department. Hotel and other general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to an increase in the franchise fee, which is applied to the Hotel's total room sales. Ground rent, which is based on total revenues, increased due to higher total revenues for the 1997 periods. Management fees increased due to higher gross sales on which the Hotel manager, Interstate, receives a base percentage fee and higher profits on which Interstate's incentive management fee is based. For the three-month period ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership generated total other income of $35,174, largely unchanged from $37,226 for the three-month period ended June 30, 1996. For the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership generated total other income of $61,576, compared to $76,836 for the six- month period ended June 30, 1996. The decrease for the six-month period is due primarily to a decrease in interest income as a result of lower cash balances being maintained by the Partnership during 1997. The following summarizes the Hotel's performance for the six- month period ended June 30 of the indicated years: 1997 1996% Change Average Occupancy 83.2% 86.4% (3.7%) Average Room Rate $93.31 $82.89 12.6% Hotel Sales $8,456,686 $7,674,799 10.2% Hotel House Profit $2,740,125 $2,286,295 19.9% Part II Other Information Item 1-5 Not applicable.
