MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002, COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 Belair Capital Fund LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Fund) achieved a total return of -13.07% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. This return reflects a decrease in the Fund's net asset value per share from $118.49 to $103.00 during the period. For comparison, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (the "S&P 500"), an unmanaged index of large capitalization stocks commonly used as a benchmark for the U.S. equity market, had a total return of -13.39% over the same period. Investors cannot invest directly in an Index. For the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Fund' total return was 6.32%. This return reflected an increase in the Fund's net asset value per share from $117.79 to $125.23 during that period. Economic growth as measured by Gross Domestic Product slowed in the second quarter of 2002, increasing at a lower than expected rate. The overall equity markets and all major U.S. equity indices continued to post negative returns as occurred in the first quarter of the year. Economic uncertainty and volatility increased during the quarter with reports of corporate malfeasance and accounting fraud. In general, smaller capitalization stocks outperformed larger capitalization stocks, and a value investment style continued to outperform growth. The best performing sector in the S&P 500 for the second quarter of 2002 was materials, followed by consumer staples and energy. Looking back a year ago, consumer cyclicals was the best second quarter sector performer followed by basic materials and transportation. In this environment of increased volatility, the performance of the Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio) fared better than the overall market. The Portfolio maintained an overweighted stance in the consumer discretionary sector, and gradually reduced health care positions, especially in biotechnology and pharmaceutical stocks. The Portfolio's emphasis on industrial company investments, especially in the airfreight and aerospace defense areas, proved to 12 be prudent. Property and casualty insurance names as well as service providers positively contributed to the performance in the quarter. Lack of earnings visibility and continuing structural overcapacity reinforced the Portfolio's cautious stance in telecommunications and information technology groups. The combined impact on performance of the Fund's investments and activities outside of the Portfolio was modestly negative during the period. The performance of the Fund trailed that of the Portfolio by approximately -1.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The Fund's investments in real estate Partnership Preference Units generally benefited from declining interest rates and tightening spreads in income-oriented securities, particularly in real estate-related securities. The Fund's investments in real estate joint ventures suffered from continuing weakness in multifamily fundamentals in many U.S. markets, including those in which the ventures operate. The value of the Fund's holdings in interest rate swaps declined as interest rates fell. For the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the performance of the Fund exceeded that of the Portfolio by approximately 0.7%. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002, COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 The Fund's total return for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was -12.26%. This return reflects a decrease in the Fund's net asset value per share from $117.39 to $103.00 during the period. For comparison, the S&P 500 had a total return of - -13.15% over the same period. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Fund's total return was -5.9%. This return reflected a decrease in the Fund's net asset value per share from $133.13 to $125.23 during that period. During the first half of 2002, overall equity markets and major equity indices continued to post negative returns. Continuing economic uncertainty and increased volatility caused by issues relating to corporate governance, accounting, and geopolitical uncertainties have created a difficult investment environment. During the period, smaller capitalization stocks generally outperformed larger capitalization stocks, and a value investment style continued to outperform growth. The Portfolio delivered better results than the overall market in the first six months of 2002. The Portfolio maintained an overweighted stance in the consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors, as it did in the first half of 2001. The Portfolio gradually reduced health care positions, especially in biotechnology and pharmaceutical stocks. The Portfolio's continued emphasis on industrial company investments, especially in the airfreight logistics and aerospace defense areas, proved to be prudent. Lack of earning visibility and continuing structural overcapacity reinforced the Portfolio's cautious weighting in telecommunications and information technology groups. The two aforementioned groups were de-emphasized last year as well. The combined impact on performance of the Fund's investments and activities outside of the Portfolio was modestly negative during the period. The performance of the Fund trailed that of the Portfolio by approximately -1.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The Fund's investments in real estate Partnership Preference Units generally benefited from declining interest rates and tightening spreads in income-oriented securities, particularly in real estate-related securities. The Fund's investments in real estate joint ventures suffered from continuing weakness in multifamily fundamentals in many U.S. markets, including those in which the ventures operate. Interest rate swap valuations rose modestly as termination dates moved closer. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the performance of the Fund exceeded that of the Portfolio by approximately 0.5%. 13 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Fund has entered into interest rate swap agreements with respect to its borrowings and real estate investments. Pursuant to these agreements, the Fund makes quarterly payments to the counterparty at predetermined fixed rates, in exchange for floating-rate payments from the counterparty at a predetermined spread to three-month LIBOR. During the terms of the outstanding swap agreements, changes in the underlying values of the swaps are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the unrealized depreciation related to the interest rate swap agreements was $27,737,207 and $14,540,921, respectively. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Fund's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Fund's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Fund to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Fund bases these estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Fund believes its more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparation of its consolidated financial statements are affected by its critical accounting policies for the Fund's real estate investments and interest rate swap contracts. Prices are not readily available for these types of investments and therefore they are valued as determined in good faith by Boston Management and Research (Investment Adviser) on an ongoing basis. In estimating the value of the Fund's investments in real estate, the Investment Adviser takes into account all relevant factors, data and information, including with respect to investments in Partnership Preference Units, information from dealers and similar firms with knowledge of such issues and the prices of comparable preferred equity securities and other fixed or adjustable rate instruments having similar investment characteristics. Real estate investments other than Partnership Preference Units are generally stated at estimated market values based upon independent valuations assuming an orderly disposition of assets. Detailed investment valuations are performed at least annually and reviewed periodically. Interim valuations reflect results of operations and distributions, and may be adjusted if there has been a significant change in economic circumstances since the most recent independent valuation. Given that such valuations include many assumptions, including but not limited to an orderly disposition of assets, values may differ from amounts ultimately realized. The Investment Adviser, in determining the value of interest rate swaps, may consider among other things, dealer and counter-party quotes and pricing models. The policies for real estate investments involve significant judgments that are based upon, without limitation, general economic conditions, the supply and demand for different types of real properties, the financial health of tenants, the timing of lease expirations and terminations, fluctuations in rental rates and operating costs, exposure to adverse environmental conditions and losses from casualty or condemnation, interest rates, availability of financing, managerial performance and government rules and regulations. The valuations of Partnership Preference Units held by the Fund through its investment in Belair Real Estate Corporation (BREC) fluctuate over time to reflect, among other factors, changes in interest rates, changes in perceived riskiness of such units 14 (including call risk), changes in the perceived riskiness of comparable or similar securities trading in the public market and the relationship between supply and demand for comparable or similar securities trading in the public market. The value of interest rate swaps may be subject to wide swings in valuation caused by changes in interest rates and in the prices of the underlying instrument and the interest rate swap may be difficult to value since such instrument may be considered illiquid. Fluctuations in the value of Partnership Preference Units derived from changes in general interest rates can be expected to be offset in part (but not entirely) by changes in the value of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund with respect to its borrowings. Fluctuations in the value of real estate investments derived from other factors besides general interest rate movements (including issuer-specific and sector-specific credit concerns, property-specific concerns and changes in interest rate spread relationships) will not be offset by changes in the value of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund. Changes in the valuation of Partnership Preference Units not offset by changes in the valuation of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund and changes in the value of other real estate investments will cause the performance of the Fund to deviate from the performance of the Portfolio. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK - ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Fund's primary exposure to interest rate risk arises from investments in real estate that are financed using floating rate bank borrowings under a revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility). The interest rate on borrowings under the Fund's Credit Facility is reset at regular intervals based on a fixed and predetermined premium to LIBOR for short-term extensions of credit. The Fund utilizes cancelable interest rate swap agreements to fix the cost of its borrowings under the Credit Facility and to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on the Fund's net asset value. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Fund makes cash payments at fixed rates in exchange for floating rate payments that fluctuate with three-month LIBOR. The interest rate swap agreements are valued on an ongoing basis by the Investment Adviser. In the future, the Fund may use other interest rate hedging arrangements (such as caps, floors and collars) to fix or limit borrowing costs. The use of interest rate hedging arrangements is a specialized activity that may be considered speculative and which can expose the Fund to significant loss. The following table summarizes the contractual maturities and weighted-average interest rates associated with the Fund's significant non-trading financial instruments. The Fund has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes. This information should be read in conjunction with Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.
