Industry Segment Information: ----------------------------- The Partnership's operations consist of the investment in and the leasing of industrial and commercial real estate. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1996, the Partnership earned its total operating revenues (rental income plus interest income from financing leases) from the following lease obligors: 1995 % 1996 % ---- --- ---- --- Pre Finish Metals Incorporated $1,056,425 31% $1,079,753 31% The Gap, Inc. 919,495 27 919,495 27 IMO Industries, Inc. 635,057 19 635,057 19 Unisource Worldwide, Inc. 257,352 7 247,110 7 Kobacker Stores, Inc. 227,655 7 227,655 7 Broomfield Tech Center Corporation 220,602 7 225,100 7 Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. 76,800 2 76,800 2 ---------- ---- ---------- ---- $3,393,386 100% $3,410,970 100% ========== ==== ========== ==== Note 5. Real Estate Held for Sale: ------------------------- On September 17, 1996, the Partnership entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of the Partnership's property in Louisville, Kentucky, leased to Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. ("Winn-Dixie") for $1,100,000. less selling costs, which includes a 5% brokerage commission. Completion of the transaction is subject to completion of certain due diligence procedures and the ability of the buyer to obtain financing within 120 days. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the sale of the property will be completed. The Winn-Dixie lease provides annual rentals of $102,000 and is scheduled to expire in December 1999. On October 17, 1996, Kobacker Stores, Inc. ("Kobacker") exercised options under the terms of its leases for properties in Eastlake and Cleveland, Ohio to purchase such properties for stated purchase prices of $165,000 and $200,000, respectively. After using a portion of the proceeds to make a partial prepayment on the mortgage loan collateralized by the Kobacker properties, the Partnership received net proceeds of $215,706. As a result of the sale and the related mortgage prepayment, Kobacker's annual rent and debt service on the mortgage loan will decrease by $36,225 and approximately $29,000, respectively. -6- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES (a California limited partnership) Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS ----------------------------------------------- Results of Operations: - --------------------- Although net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996 reflected a decrease as compared to with the same period ended September 30, 1995, such decrease was due to an extraordinary charge of $255,000 incurred in connection with paying off a mortgage loan in the second quarter of 1996 and $161,000 of nonrecurring other income which was earned during the first and second quarters of 1995. Excluding the effects of these items, income for the comparable periods would have reflected an increase of $231,000. Net income for the comparable three-month period ended September 30, 1996 increased by $66,000. The increases in income excluding the effect of nonrecurring items, are primarily attributable to decreases in interest and depreciation expenses. The decrease in interest expense is due to the continuing amortization of principal of the Partnership's mortgage loans and the benefit realized from refinancing, at a lower rate of interest, the limited recourse loan collateralized by the Partnership's property leased to The Gap, Inc. (the "Gap") in April 1996. Depreciation decreased due to the full depreciation of certain components as the Partnership uses component life depreciation methods. Lease revenues for the comparable periods were stable. The extraordinary charge in 1996 was due to prepayment charges incurred in connection with paying off an existing mortgage on the Gap property. As a result of refinancing the mortgage loan, annual debt service on the property will decrease by $143,000. Nonrecurring other income in 1995 consisted of a concession of $42,000 allowed by a vendor in the first quarter and $119,000 received as a bankruptcy settlement in the second quarter from a claim against Storage Technology Corporation relating to its lease with the Partnership which was terminated in 1987 pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy court. Financial Condition: - ------------------- There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition since December 31, 1995. The decrease in the Partnership's cash balances is directly attributable to the cost of paying off the mortgage loan on the Gap property. Cash flow from operations was sufficient to fund payments of scheduled installments of mortgage debt and distributions to partners. In the event that the sale of the Partnership's property leased to Winn- Dixie Stores, Inc. ("Winn-Dixie") is completed, annual cash flow would decrease by $102,400; however, the anticipated proceeds from such proposed sale, net of costs, is approximately $1,000,000. Completion of the sale is subject to certain contingencies, including the ability of the purchaser to obtain financing. As a result of the sale of two properties leased to Kobacker Stores, Inc. ("Kobacker") in October 1996, the Partnership received approximately $216,000 after a partial prepayment on the loan collateralized by the Kobacker properties. Annual rent from the Kobacker leases will decrease by $36,000, and the Partnership's annual debt service obligation will decrease by $29,000. One of the Partnership's leases with IMO Industries, Inc. ("IMO") had originally been scheduled to terminate in March 1996. The lease was extended through July 1996 to enable IMO to meet its lease obligation to return the property to the Partnership in suitable condition. Until IMO makes the necessary repairs or makes some other arrangement acceptable to the Partnership, the Partnership will require IMO to continue paying rent. All rents from IMO are current. Annual rentals from this IMO lease are $91,000. The General Partners are currently investigating ways to provide liquidity for limited partners on a tax-effective basis. -7- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES (a California limited partnership) PART II ------- Item 6. - EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K - ------------------------------------------ (a) Exhibits: None (b) Reports on Form 8-K: During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership was not required to file any reports on Form 8-K. -8- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES (a California limited partnership) SIGNATURES ---------- Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
