IRT PARTNERS L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2001 and 2000
(Dollars in thousands, except unit amounts)
1. Unaudited Financial Statements
These financial statements for interim periods are unaudited. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to a fair presentation of the financial statements as of
June 30, 2001 have been recorded. The results of operations for the interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
future interim periods or for a full year.
2. Organization and Nature of Operations
IRT Partners L.P. ("LP"), a Georgia limited partnership formed July 15,
1998, is the entity through which IRT Property Company (the "Company"), a
self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"),
conducts a portion of its business and owns (either directly or through
subsidiaries) a portion of its assets.
The Company is the sole general partner of LP and maintains an indirect
partnership interest through its wholly-owned subsidiary, IRT Management
Company. The Company initially contributed 20 shopping centers, related assets
and cash to LP in exchange for 8,486,217 limited partnership units ("OP Units").
The Company was issued additional OP Units in exchange for cash contributions to
fund further acquisition activity. Since the formation of LP, the Company has
contributed cash to acquire six shopping centers, and LP has divested five
shopping centers. At June 30, 2001, the Company owned approximately 94.0% of LP.
LP was formed by the Company in order to enhance the Company's
acquisition opportunities by offering potential sellers the ability to engage in
tax deferred sales of properties in exchange for OP Units. In August 1998,
certain unaffiliated persons contributed their interests in three Florida
shopping centers in exchange for a total of 815,852 OP Units.
LP is obligated to redeem each OP Unit held by a person other than the
Company, at the request of the holder, for cash equal to the fair market value
of a share of the Company's common stock at the time of such redemption,
provided that the Company may elect to acquire any such OP Unit presented for
redemption for one common share or cash. Such limited partnership interest held
by persons unaffiliated with the Company is reflected as "Limited Partners'
Capital Interest" in the accompanying balance sheets at the cash redemption
amount on the balance sheet dates.
Federal income tax laws require the Company, as a REIT, to distribute
95% of its ordinary taxable income. LP makes quarterly distributions to holders
of OP Units to enable the Company to satisfy this requirement.
At June 30, 2001, LP owns 24 neighborhood and community shopping
centers located in Florida, Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina. The shopping
centers are anchored by necessity-oriented retailers such as supermarkets, drug
stores and/or discount variety stores.

- obtained cash proceeds of approximately $6,210 upon the sales
of four properties and recognized a gain of approximately

- obtained cash proceeds of approximately $348 upon the sale of

During the six months ended June 30, 2001, LP utilized funds of:
- approximately $5,655 to pay distributions to the holders of
the OP Units,
- approximately $7,903 for the acquisition of a shopping center
investment, and
- approximately $21,077 for advances to the Company,
During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company advanced LP
$2,633. LP utilized funds of approximately $5,390 to pay distributions
to the holders of the OP Units.
Material Changes in Results of Operations.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, rental income from
LP's portfolio of shopping center investments:
- increased approximately $76 and $271, respectively, for the
core portfolio,
- increased approximately $816 and $1,273, respectively due to
the acquisition of a shopping center in 2000 and a shopping
center in the second quarter of 2001, and
- decreased approximately $123 and $121, respectively, due to
sales of two investments in 2001.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, rental income from
LP's portfolio of shopping center investments:
- increased approximately $96 and decreased approximately $271,
respectively, for the core portfolio,
- increased approximately $0 and $960, respectively, due to the
acquisition of two shopping centers in 1999, and
9
- decreased approximately $222 and $519, respectively, due to
the sales of three shopping centers in 1999.
Percentage rentals received from shopping center investments
totaled approximately $113 and $84 during the three months ended June
30, 2001 and 2000, respectively and $329 and $226 for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Percentage rental income is
recorded upon collection based on the tenants' lease year end.
Interest due from affiliate increased during the three months
ended June 30, 2001 approximately $80 and decreased during the six
months ended June 30, 2001 approximately $64 due primarily to the
timing of the advances from the Company.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, operating
expenses related to LP's portfolio of real estate investments:
- increased approximately $34 and $125, respectively, for the
core portfolio,
- increased approximately $210 and $367, respectively, due to
the acquisition of a shopping center in 2000 and a shopping
center in 2001, and
- decreased approximately $22 and $24, respectively, due to the
sales of two properties in 2001.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, operating
expenses related to LP's portfolio of real estate investments:
- increased approximately $46 and $192, respectively, for the
core portfolio,
- increased approximately $0 and $125, respectively, due to the
acquisition of two shopping center investments in 1999, and
- decreased approximately $41 and $92, respectively, due to the
sales of three shopping centers in 1999.
The net increase of $96 and $183 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same prior year periods,
respectively, in depreciation expense was due to the acquisition of a
real estate investment in the fourth quarter of 2000 and one investment
in the second quarter of 2001.
The net increase in general and administrative expense of
approximately $72 and $124 for the three and six months ended June 30,
2001, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods, was
primarily due to a larger allocation of expenses from the Company due
to the additional real estate investments acquired in 2000 and 2001.
