Nature of Business: The Partnership was formed in July 1986 to acquire, operate, hold for investment and sell real estate. The two properties currently owned are the UCB Building in Greenville, South Carolina, and the EastPark Executive Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. 2. Opinion of Management: In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (all which were normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire year. 3. Statement of Cash Flows: For purposes of reporting the statements of cash flows, the Limited Partnership includes all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying condensed balance sheets. 4. Priority Return: At December 31, 1996, the cumulative unpaid priority return to the unit holders was $1,924,049 compared to $1,681,265 one year prior. This increase resulted from no distributions being made to partners during the year and the pro rata share due partners pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement. Based on the current and projected commercial real estate market conditions, the General Partners believe that it is reasonably unlikely that a sale of the Partnership properties would produce net sale proceeds sufficient to pay the priority return. Furthermore, the General Partners believe that it is reasonably unlikely that the Partnership's operating income or any refinancing of Partnership debt would generate sufficient funds to pay any portion of the priority return. 5 6 YAGER/KUESTER PUBLIC FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Changes in financial condition During the first quarter of 1997, an additional $57,517 was drawn on the line of credit with First Union to pay for the final invoices relating to the IRS upfit at the EastPark Executive Center. This was the final draw on this line of credit, bringing the Partnership to the $1,000,000 maximum amount. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.) Accounts receivable has decreased since year end due to the receipt of payment from the IRS for certain reimburseable items on their upfit. This excess cash was used to pay off the loan with Internet Services Corporation. This loan was paid off nine months early, saving the Partnership an additional $1,400 in interest expense for the year. Accrued expense has decreased in the first quarter due to the payment of the 1996 property taxes in January 1997. Liquidity and Capital Resources During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership continued to fund working capital requirements, and the working capital deficit was reduced by approximately $19,000 from December 31, 1996. The $1,000,000 line of credit with First Union was due and payable on April 30, 1997. The line of credit was not paid and therefore the General Partners are currently negotiating with First Union and have received a verbal commitment from the bank to renew the loan with similar terms. No distributions were paid to the limited partners this quarter, resulting in an increase to their cumulative unpaid priority return. (See note 4 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.) Results of operations Net income is down for the first quarter of 1997 compared to the same period of the prior year by approximately $44,000. Rental income decreased by approximately $22,000 in the first quarter primarily due to the decrease in common area maintenance ("CAM") charges as provided in the leases at the UCB building. Expenses for the first quarter of 1997 are up by approximately $24,000. This is primarily due to the increase in depreciation expense as a result of the completion and capitalization of the IRS upfit at the EastPark Executive Center. Occupancy rate is currently 100% at the UCB building. Occupancy at EastPark Executive Center has increased from 95% to 98% in the first quarter due to the signing of a new lease with FSK Properties, LLC to occupy 1,371 square feet and pay $16,452 annually. FSK Properties, LLC is owned by Faison S. Kuester, Jr., one of the General Partners of the Partnership. Status of Sales Efforts; Future Matters The General Partners continue to focus their efforts on selling both Properties. The General Partners have extended the listing agreements with the Charlotte-based real estate broker through August 1997. At this time a qualified buyer with acceptable terms to the General Partners for either property has not been secured. 6 7 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
