TRUPP HODNETT COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:
THE Management Company ("TMC"), an S Corporation, and Trupp-Hodnett Enterprises,
Inc. ("THE"), a C Corporation, (collectively "Trupp Hodnett" or the "Company"),
both Georgia corporations, are leading providers of vacation property rentals,
management services and sales in St. Simons Island, Georgia. Trupp Hodnett
manages approximately 400 total rental units. The Company provides its
management services to property owners pursuant to management contracts, which
generally are one year in length. The majority of such contracts contain
automatic renewal provisions but also allow property owners to terminate the
contract at any time. The Company's operations are seasonal, with peaks during
the second and third quarters of the year.
On May 26, 1998, ResortQuest International, Inc. ("ResortQuest") consummated its
initial public offering and acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Company
in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock (the "Combination").
In addition, the owner and certain key employees have agreed to reductions in
salary and benefits which would have reduced general and administrative expenses
by approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1997, and $317,000
for the period from January 1, 1998 through May 26, 1998. In addition, certain
stockholders retained non-operating assets and assumed or retired certain
liabilities that were excluded from the Combination and the purchase price for
the Company was adjusted for certain working capital adjustments of
approximately $221,000.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Revenue Recognition
The Company records property rental fees on the accrual basis of accounting,
ratably over the term of guest stays, as earned. For weekly and monthly stays in
homes and cottages the Company requires a deposit equal to 50% of the rental fee
60 days prior to the expected arrival date. These deposits are refundable with
60 days notice of cancellation. Daily and weekly stays in "condo hotels" use a
credit card to guarantee arrival.
All deposits are recorded as customer deposits and deferred revenue in the
accompanying combined financial statements until the guest stay commences.
Advance deposits are recorded as payable to property owners, ratably over the
term of guest stays, as earned. The Company records revenue for cancellations as
they occur.
Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are recognized as the
service is provided, including management fees.
Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded net
of the related commission expense. The Company recognized commission revenues of
$1,621,000 and $1,208,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the period
from January 1, 1998 through May 26, 1998, respectively, and commission expense
of $729,000 and $510,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the period
from January 1, 1998 through May 26, 1998.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses include travel agent commissions, salaries, communications,
advertising, credit card fees and other costs associated with managing and
selling properties.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the balance sheets and statements of cash flows, the Company
considers all investments with original maturities of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.
Expenditures for major renewals and betterments, which extend the useful lives
of existing equipment, are capitalized and depreciated. Upon retirement or
disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is
recognized in the combined statements of operations.
Income Taxes
TMC has elected S Corporation status as defined by the Internal Revenue Code and
state tax statutes, whereby, TMC is not subject to taxation for federal or state
tax purposes. Under S Corporation status, the stockholders report their share of
the Company's taxable earnings or losses in their personal tax returns.
THE is a regular C Corporation and as such is subject to taxation for federal
and state purposes. THE accounts for income taxes under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109") Under SFAS
No. 109, the current provision for income taxes represents actual or
estimated amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be filed
for each year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the
estimated future tax effects of: (a) temporary differences between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the consolidated
balance sheets, and (b) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The
overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures
the deferred tax expense for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax
laws on
2
deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense
in the period of enactment. The measurement of deferred tax assets may be
reduced by a valuation allowance based on judgemental assessment of available
evidence if deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Risk
The Company's operations are exclusively in the St. Simons Island area and are
subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.
