INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Some of the statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, particularly those included in Part I, Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”), may be considered “forward-looking statements” because the statements relate to matters which have not yet occurred.  For example, phrases such as “we anticipate,” “believe” or “expect” indicate that it is possible that the event anticipated, believed or expected may not occur.  If these events do not occur, the result which we expected also may, or may not, occur in a different manner, which may be more or less favorable to us.  We do not undertake any obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

 

Any forward-looking statements included in MD&A, or elsewhere in this report, reflect our managing general partner’s best judgment based on known factors, but involve risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to those described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed on March 28, 2007.
Any forward-looking information provided by us pursuant to the safe harbor established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 should be evaluated in the context of these factors.

NTS REALTY HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership’s (“NTS Realty”) 2006 annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2007.  In the opinion of NTS Realty Capital, Inc., our managing general partner, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation have been made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period.  As used in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the terms “we,” “us” or “our,” as the context requires, may refer to NTS Realty or its interests in its properties and joint ventures.

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization and Distribution Policy

 

We are in the business of developing, constructing, owning and operating multifamily properties, commercial and retail real estate and land leases.  At September 30, 2007, we owned wholly or as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party, twenty-nine properties, comprised of eleven multifamily properties, fourteen office and business centers, three retail properties, and one ground lease.  The properties are located in and around Louisville (16) and Lexington (1), Kentucky, Fort Lauderdale (3), Florida, Indianapolis (4), Indiana, Nashville (2), Tennessee, Richmond (2), Virginia, and Atlanta (1), Georgia.  Our office and business centers aggregate approximately 1.5 million square feet.  We own multifamily properties containing 3,222 units, retail properties containing approximately 210,000 square feet of space and one ground lease associated with a 120-space parking lot attached to one of our properties.

 

We pay distributions if and when authorized by our managing general partner.  We are required to pay distributions on a quarterly basis, equal to sixty-five percent (65%) of our “net cash flow from operations” as this term is defined in regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; provided that if a law is enacted or existing law is modified or interpreted in a manner that subjects us to taxation as a corporation or otherwise subjects us to entity level taxation for federal, state or local income tax purposes, we will adjust the amount distributed to reflect our obligation to pay tax.  Any distribution other than a distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year will be made no later than forty-five (45) days after the last day of such quarter based on our estimate of “net cash flow from operations” for the year.  Any distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year will be made no later than ninety (90) days after the last day of such quarter based on actual “net cash flow from operations” for the year, adjusted for any excess or insufficient distributions made with respect to the first three quarters of the calendar year.

 

“Net cash flow from operations” may be reduced by the amount of reserves as determined by us each quarter.  Our managing general partner will establish these reserves for, among other things, working capital or capital improvement needs.  Therefore, there is no assurance that we will have “net cash flow from operations” from which to pay distributions in the future.  For example, our partnership agreement permits our managing general partner to reinvest sales or refinancing proceeds in new and existing properties or to create reserves to fund future capital expenditures.  Because “net cash flow from operations” is calculated after reinvesting sales or refinancing proceeds or establishing reserves, we may not have any “net cash flow from operations” from which to pay distributions.

 

We paid quarterly distributions of $0.10 per unit to limited partners on April 13, 2007, July 13, 2007 and October 16, 2007.

Consolidation Policy and Minority Interest

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly-owned properties and properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party where we are the majority owner.  Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

We include the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of The Overlook at St. Thomas and Creek’s Edge at Stony Point in our consolidated financial statements.  The minority interest in The Overlook at St. Thomas and Creek’s Edge at Stony Point is stated separately in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Use of Estimates and Reclassifications in the Preparation of Financial Statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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.

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the September 30, 2007 classifications.  These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported operating results or partners’ equity.

 

Note 3 – Real Estate Transactions

 

Acquisitions

 

We account for our acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 “Business Combinations”.  The assets and liabilities purchased are recorded at their fair market value at the date of the acquisition.  We allocate the purchase price for each of the properties to net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired based on fair values (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, acquired above and below market leases and the origination cost of acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities.  The intangible assets recorded in relation to our multifamily properties will be amortized over a period of one year, which approximates the weighted average lease lives.  No above or below market leases exist.  No customer relationship intangibles exist.  At the date of the acquisition, the carrying value of mortgages and other liabilities approximated fair market value.  We retained an independent appraiser to assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and capitalizations rates deemed appropriate and available market information.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we made the following property acquisitions:

Discontinued Operations and Long-Lived Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

 

On June 12, 2007, the board of directors of NTS Realty Capital, Inc., our managing general partner, authorized the sale of Atrium Center, Blankenbaker Business Center I, Blankenbaker Business Center II, Anthem Office Center, NTS Center, Plainview Center, Plainview Point Office Center Phase I and II, Plainview Point Office Center Phase III, and the ITT Parking Lot (the “Office Portfolio”).  These properties have been classified as held for sale on our balance sheet and discontinued operations on our statements of operations at September 30, 2007 and all comparative dates and periods presented.

 

On August 2, 2007, we announced that we entered into an agreement to sell the Office Portfolio.  Pursuant to the agreement, we will receive $66,550,000 in proceeds.  We intend to use the sale proceeds to repay outstanding debt on the properties and to purchase properties in a manner that would qualify as a tax deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  The sale of the Office Portfolio is expected to close on or prior to February 1, 2008, although there can be no assurance that the sale will occur by that date or at all.

 

We have presented separately as discontinued operations in all periods the results of operations for the following properties:

Note 4 – Concentration of Credit Risk

 

We own and operate, either wholly or as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party, multifamily properties, commercial and retail real estate and a land lease in Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Indianapolis, Indiana, Nashville, Tennessee, Richmond, Virginia and Atlanta, Georgia.

 

Our financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and equivalents.  We maintain our cash accounts primarily with banks located in Kentucky.  The total cash balances are insured by the FDIC up to $100,000 per bank account.  We may at times, in certain accounts, have deposits in excess of $100,000.

 

Note 5 – Cash and Equivalents

 

Cash and equivalents include cash on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less.  We have a cash management program which provides for the overnight investment of excess cash balances.  Under an agreement with a bank, excess cash is invested in a mutual fund for U.S. government and agency securities each night.

 

Note 6 – Cash and Equivalents - Restricted

 

Cash and equivalents - restricted represents cash on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less which have been escrowed with certain mortgage companies and banks for property taxes, insurance and tenant improvements in accordance with certain loan and lease agreements and certain security deposits.

 

Note 7 – Property and Depreciation

 

Land, buildings and amenities are stated at cost.  Costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which are generally 5-30 years for land improvements, 7-30 years for buildings and improvements and 5-30 years for amenities.  Tenant improvements are generally depreciated over the life of the initial or renewal term of the respective tenant lease.  Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $4,110,000 and $3,267,000, respectively.  Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $11,320,000 and $8,628,000, respectively.

 

SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” specifies circumstances in which certain long-lived assets must be reviewed for impairment.  If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of its expected future cash flows, the asset’s carrying value must be written down to fair value.  In determining the value of an investment property and whether the investment property is impaired, management considers several factors such as projected rental and vacancy rates, property operating expenses, capital expenditures and interest rates.  The capitalization rate used to determine property valuation is based on the market in which the investment property is located, length of leases, tenant financial strength, the economy in general, demographics, environment, property location, visibility, age and physical condition among others.  All of these factors are considered by management in determining the value of any particular investment property.  The value of any particular investment property is sensitive to the actual results of any of these factors, either individually or taken as a whole.  If the actual results differ from management’s judgment, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.  Application of this standard during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 did not result in an impairment loss.

Our mortgage payable to an insurance company, maturing December 1, 2010, has been included in our long-lived liabilities held for sale.

 

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of long-term debt on September 30, 2007 was approximately $251.5 million.

 

Our borrowing base limitation on the revolving note payable was approximately $28.0 million at September 30, 2007.

 

13



 

On February 13, 2007, we paid down $21.2 million on the mortgage payable to a bank, maturing November 15, 2007, in connection with the sale of Springs Medical Office Center and Springs Office Center.  We are currently seeking an extension of maturity of this loan.

 

Interest paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $10.6 million and $9.1 million, respectively.

 

Our mortgages may be prepaid but are generally subject to a yield-maintenance premium.  Certain mortgages and notes payable contain covenants and requirements that we maintain specified debt limits and ratios related to our debt balances and property values.  We complied with all covenants and requirements at September 30, 2007.  We intend to renew or refinance our mortgages and revolving note payable coming due in the next twelve months.

 

We entered into an interest rate swap agreement beginning in September 2007 that effectively converts $18 million of our variable-rate debt bearing interest at the LIBOR one month rate to a 5.05% fixed rate basis for the next two years, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.  Approximately $17.8 million, or 7%, of our outstanding debt had its interest payments converted to the interest rate swap agreement at September 30, 2007.

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement at September 30, 2007 was approximately $166,000 and is included in Other Assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2007, we recognized a net gain of approximately $166,000 to record the swap agreement at fair value.

 

Note 9 – Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses Due to Affiliate

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses due to affiliate includes amounts owed to NTS Development Company for reimbursement of employee costs and overhead expenses and fees for services rendered as provided for in our management agreement.

 

Note 10 – Related Party Transactions

 

Pursuant to our management agreement, NTS Development Company receives fees for a variety of services performed for our benefit.  NTS Development Company also receives fees under separate management agreements for each of our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  Property management fees are paid in an amount equal to 5% of the gross collected revenue from our wholly-owned properties and 3.5% of the gross collected revenue from our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  We were the beneficiary of a preferential ownership interest, disproportionately greater than our initial cash investment in each property owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  Construction supervision fees are paid in an amount equal to 5% of the costs incurred which relate to capital improvements.  These construction supervision fees are capitalized as part of land, buildings and amenities.  Also pursuant to the agreement, NTS Development Company receives commercial leasing fees equal to 4% of the gross rental amount for new leases and 2% of the gross rental amount for new leases in which a broker is used and for renewals or extensions.  Disposition fees are paid to NTS Development Company in an amount of 1% to 4% of the aggregate sales price of a property pursuant to our management agreement and up to a 6% fee upon disposition on our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party under separate management agreements.  NTS Development Company is reimbursed its actual costs for services rendered to NTS Realty.  NTS Development Company has agreed to accept a lower management fee for the properties we own as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party in exchange for a larger potential disposition fee.

 

Employee costs are allocated among NTS Realty, other affiliates of our managing general partner and for the benefit of third parties, so that a full time employee can be shared by multiple properties.  Each employee’s services which are dedicated to a particular entity’s operations are allocated as a percentage of each employee’s costs to that entity.  We do not have any employees.  Pursuant to our management agreement, NTS Development Company provides its employees to us.  We only reimburse charges from NTS Development Company for actual costs of employee services incurred for our benefit.

 

14



 

We were charged the following amounts pursuant to our management agreement with NTS Development Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.  These charges include items which have been expensed as operating expenses reimbursed to affiliate or professional and administrative expenses reimbursed to affiliate and items which have been capitalized as other assets or as land, buildings and amenities.  Certain of these items are included in our results of discontinued operations.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements in Item 1 and the cautionary statements below.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

General

 

A critical accounting policy is one that would materially affect our operations or financial condition, and requires management to make estimates or judgments in certain circumstances.  These judgments often result from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  Critical accounting policies discussed in this section are not to be confused with accounting principles and methods disclosed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  GAAP requires information in financial statements about accounting principles, methods used and disclosures pertaining to significant estimates.  The following disclosure discusses judgments known to management pertaining to trends, events or uncertainties known which were taken into consideration upon the application of those policies and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported upon taking into consideration different conditions and assumptions.

Impairment and Valuation

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” specifies circumstances in which certain long-lived assets must be reviewed for impairment.  If this review indicates that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of its expected future cash flows, the asset’s carrying value must be written down to fair value.  In determining the value of an investment property and whether the investment property is impaired, management considers several factors such as projected rental and vacancy rates, property operating expenses, capital expenditures, interest rates and recent appraisals when available.  The capitalization rate used to determine property valuation is based on among others, the market in which the investment property is located, length of leases, tenant financial strength, the economy in general, demographics, environment, property location, visibility, age and physical condition.  All of these factors are considered by management in determining the value of any particular investment property.  The value of any particular investment property is sensitive to the actual results of any of these factors, either individually or taken as a whole.  If the actual results differ from management’s judgment, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.

 

Our property acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations.”  Each property’s assets and liabilities acquired from unaffiliated third parties was adjusted to reflect its fair market value.  In accordance with SFAS No. 141, we have allocated the purchase price of each acquired investment property among land, buildings and improvements, other intangibles, including acquired above market leases, acquired below market leases and acquired in-place lease origination cost which is the market cost avoidance of executing the acquired leases.  Allocation of the purchase price is an area that requires complex judgments and significant estimates.  We used the information contained in a third-party appraisal as the primary basis for allocating the purchase price between land and buildings.  A pro rata portion of the purchase price was allocated to the value of avoiding a lease-up period for acquired in-place leases.  The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining initial term of the respective leases.  A portion of the purchase price was allocated to the estimated lease origination cost based on estimated lease execution costs for similar leases and considered various factors including geographic location and size of leased space.  We then evaluated acquired leases based upon current market rates at the acquisition date and various other factors including geographic location, size and the location of leased space within the property, tenant profile and the credit risk of the tenant in determining whether the acquired lease is above or below market.  After acquired leases were determined to be at, above or below market, we allocated a pro rata portion of the purchase price to any acquired above or below market lease based upon the present value of the difference between the contractual lease rate and the estimated market rate.  We also consider an allocation of purchase price to in-place leases that have a customer relationship intangible value.  The characteristics we consider in allocating these values include the nature and extent of existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant and the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.  We did not have any tenants with whom we have identified a developed relationship that we believe had any intangible value.

 

Recognition of Rental Income

 

Under GAAP, we are required to recognize rental income based on the effective monthly rent for each lease.  The effective monthly rent is equal to the average monthly rent during the term of the lease, not the stated rent for any particular month.  The process, known as “straight-lining” or “stepping” rent, has the effect of increasing rental revenues during the early phases of a lease and decreasing rental revenues in the latter phases of a lease if the stated rent progressively increases over the term of the lease.  Due to the impact of “straight-lining,” the cash collected exceeded the rental income for rent by approximately $38,000 and $315,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, the cash collected exceeded the rental income for rent by approximately $65,000 and $187,000, respectively.  If rental income calculated on a straight-line basis exceeds the cash rent due under the lease, the difference is recorded as an increase in deferred rent receivable and included as a component of accounts receivable on the relevant balance sheet.  If the cash rent due under the lease exceeds rental income calculated on a straight-line basis, the difference is recorded as a decrease in deferred rent receivable and is recorded as a decrease of accounts receivable on the relevant balance sheet.  We defer recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage or excess rent, until the breakpoint that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved.  We periodically review the collectability of outstanding receivables.  Allowances are generally taken for tenants with outstanding balances due for a period greater than ninety days and tenants with outstanding balances due for a period less than ninety days if we believe these balances may be uncollectible.

 

21



 

Recognition of Lease Termination Income

 

We recognize lease termination income upon receipt of the income.  We accrue lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met and the tenant is no longer occupying the property.

 

Cost Capitalization and Depreciation Policies

 

We review all expenditures and capitalize any item exceeding $2,500 deemed to be an upgrade or a tenant improvement with an expected useful life greater than one year.  Land, buildings and amenities are stated at cost.  Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Generally, buildings and improvements have estimated useful lives between 7-30 years, land improvements have estimated useful lives between 5-30 years and amenities have estimated useful lives between 5-30 years.  Acquired above and below market leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related leases as an adjustment to rental income.  Acquired in-place lease origination cost is amortized over the life of the lease as a component of amortization expense.

 

Results of Operations

 

At September 30, 2007, we owned wholly or as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party, twenty-nine properties, comprised of eleven multifamily properties, fourteen office and business centers, three retail properties and one ground lease.  Discontinued operations consisted of eight office and business centers and one ground lease.  We generate substantially all of our operating income from property operations.

 

Net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $2,634,000 and $3,418,000, respectively.  The decrease in net loss was primarily due to increased revenue which was partially offset by increased operating expenses and interest due to the 2007 acquisitions of The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments.  Net loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $8,220,000 and $7,811,000, respectively.  The increase in net loss was primarily due to increased operating expense, property tax and insurance, depreciation and interest expense, which was partially offset by increased revenue related to the 2007 acquisitions of The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments, and the 2006 acquisitions of Castle Creek Apartments, Lake Clearwater Apartments, The Grove at Richland Apartments, The Grove at Swift Creek Apartments, and The Grove at Whitworth Apartments.

 

The following tables include certain selected summarized operating data for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.  This data should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes attached hereto.

Management Fees

 

Management fees from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $511,000 and $441,000, respectively.  Management fees from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $1,473,000 and $1,219,000, respectively.  The increases of $70,000, or 16%, and $254,000, or 21%, respectively, were primarily due to the 2007 acquisitions of The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments, and the 2006 acquisitions of Castle Creek Apartments, Lake Clearwater Apartments, The Grove at Richland Apartments, The Grove at Swift Creek Apartments, and The Grove at Whitworth Apartments.

 

Pursuant to our management agreement, NTS Development Company receives property management fees equal to 5% of the gross collected revenue from our wholly-owned properties.  NTS Development Company receives property management fees from our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party equal to 3.5% of their gross collected revenue under separate management agreements.  We were the beneficiary of a preferential ownership interest, disproportionately greater than our initial cash investment in each property owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  NTS Development Company has agreed to accept a lower management fee for the properties we own as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party in exchange for a larger potential disposition fee.  Disposition fees of up to 6% of the gross sales price may be paid to NTS Development Company for the sale of one of our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  Management fees are calculated as a percentage of cash collections and are recorded on the accrual basis.  As a result, the fluctuations in revenue between years will differ from the fluctuations of management fee expense.

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $3,319,000 and $2,862,000, respectively.  Interest expense from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $9,195,000 and $7,546,000, respectively.  The increases of $457,000, or 16%, and $1,649,000, or 22%, are primarily related to the loans obtained for the 2007 acquisitions of The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments, and the 2006 acquisitions of Castle Creek Apartments, Lake Clearwater Apartments, The Grove at Richland Apartments, The Grove at Swift Creek Apartments, and The Grove at Whitworth Apartments.

 

Loss on Disposal of Assets

 

The loss on disposal of assets from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 can be attributed to assets that were not fully depreciated at the time of replacement, primarily at our commercial and multifamily properties.  These replacements include roof replacements, stairwell upgrades and heating and air conditioning units.

Minority interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 includes the net operating loss attributable to the minority holder of the tenant in common interests in our properties acquired in 2007 as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party.  The properties are The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

Discontinued operations, net for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $672,000 and $319,000, respectively.  Discontinued operations, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $1,048,000 and $1,064,000, respectively.  Discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 includes the net operating results for the properties previously sold and currently held for sale as listed below.  The increase of $353,000, or 111%, for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is primarily due to discontinued depreciation on the properties presently held for sale.  Discontinued Operations includes the net operating results of the following properties:

Gain on Sale of Discontinued Operations

 

Gain on sale of discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $13,482,000 due to the sale of Springs Medical Office Center and Springs Office Center on February 12, 2007.  Gain on sale of discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was approximately $49,950,000 due to the sale of Golf Brook and Sabal Park Apartments on February 2, 2006 and Commonwealth Business Center Phases I and II on May 18, 2006.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our most liquid asset is our cash and equivalents, which consist of cash and short-term investments, but do not include any restricted cash.  Operating income generated by the properties will be the primary source from which we generate cash.  Other sources of cash include the proceeds from mortgage loans and notes payable.  Our main uses of cash will relate to capital expenditures, required payments of mortgages and notes payable, distributions and property taxes.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to approximately $6.3 million from $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The change was primarily due to funds restricted from the sale of Springs Medical Office Center and Springs Office Center along with an increase in minority interest due to the 2007 acquisitions of The Overlook Apartments and Creek’s Edge Apartments.

 

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to approximately $47.1 million from $56.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The decrease was primarily due to changes in investing activities from property acquisitions and dispositions.

 

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased to approximately $41.3 million from $43.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The change was primarily the result of additional payments on a mortgage payable of $21.2 million and a decrease in proceeds from the revolving note payable.  The decrease is partially offset by an increase in mortgages payable due to property acquisitions.

 

Future Liquidity

 

Our future liquidity depends significantly on our properties’ occupancy and operating results remaining at a level which provides for debt payments, distributions to our limited partners and adequate working capital, currently and in the future.  If occupancy were to fall below that level and remain at or below that level for a significant period of time, our ability to make payments due under our debt agreements and to continue paying daily operational costs would be greatly impaired.  In the next twelve months, we intend to operate the properties in a similar manner to their operation in recent years.  Cash reserves, which consist of unrestricted cash as shown on our balance sheet, were approximately $495,000 on September 30, 2007.

 

On March 19, 2007, we announced that the board of directors of our managing general partner approved a quarterly distribution of $0.10 per unit on our limited partnership units.  The distribution was paid on April 13, 2007, to limited partners of record at the close of business on March 31, 2007.

 

On June 12, 2007, we announced that the board of directors of our managing general partner approved a quarterly distribution of $0.10 per unit on our limited partnership units.  The distribution was paid on July 13, 2007, to limited partners of record at the close of business on June 30, 2007.

 

On September 17, 2007, we announced that the board of directors of our managing general partner approved a quarterly distribution of $0.10 per unit on our limited partnership units.  The distribution was paid on October 16, 2007, to limited partners of record at the close of business on September 28, 2007.

 

As a result of increased real estate and franchise taxes on certain of the Company’s properties and legal expenses necessary to conclude the class action litigation involving the Company and its predecessors, among others, the amount of the Company’s fourth quarter 2007 distribution may be lower than the corresponding distribution in 2006.

 

28



 

We expect to incur expenditures of approximately $6.4 million funded by borrowings on our debt during the next twelve months primarily for renovations and tenant origination costs necessary to continue leasing our properties.  This discussion of future liquidity details our material commitments.  We anticipate seeking renewal or refinancing of our notes payable coming due in the next twelve months.

 

Our borrowing base limitation on the revolving note payable was approximately $28.0 million at September 30, 2007.

(1)          Gain of approximately $8.8 million.

(2)          Gain of approximately $4.6 million.

(3)          We used proceeds from this disposition transaction, intended to qualify as a Section 1031 like kind exchange, to make additional principal payments of $10.6 million on a mortgage payable to a bank and to acquire a 60% tenant in common interest in The Overlook at St. Thomas.

 

On June 12, 2007, the board of directors of NTS Realty Capital, Inc., our managing general partner, authorized the sale of Atrium Center, Blankenbaker Business Center I, Blankenbaker Business Center II, Anthem Office Center, NTS Center, Plainview Center, Plainview Point Office Center Phase I and II, Plainview Point Office Center Phase III, and the ITT Parking Lot (the “Office Portfolio”).  These properties have been classified as held for sale on our balance sheet and discontinued operations on our statements of operations at September 30, 2007 and all comparative dates and periods presented.

 

On August 2, 2007, we announced that we entered into an agreement to sell the Office Portfolio.  Pursuant to the agreement, we will receive $66,550,000 in proceeds.  We intend to use the sale proceeds to repay outstanding debt on the properties and to purchase properties in a manner that would qualify as a tax deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

We may engage in transactions structured as “like-kind exchanges” of property to obtain favorable tax treatment under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  If we are able to structure an exchange of properties as a “like-kind exchange,” then any gain we realize from the exchange would not be recognized for federal income tax purposes.  The test for determining whether exchanged properties are of “like-kind” is whether the properties are of the same nature or character.

 

We were unable to use approximately $1.3 million of the proceeds from the sale of Springs Medical Office Center and Springs Office Center in the purchase of The Overlook at St. Thomas.  Under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code certain tax consequences may result for the limited partners of record due to our inability to use these funds in a “like-kind exchange”.  The consequences include the recognition of gain or loss on the transaction and related tax attributes.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Our primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is expected to be our exposure to changes in interest rates.  We refinanced substantially all of our debt acquired at the time of our merger with instruments which bear interest at a fixed rate, with the exception of approximately $78.5 million at variable rates.  We anticipate that a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an approximate $9.9 million decrease in the fair value of our fixed rate debt while increasing interest expense on our variable rate debt by approximately $785,000 annually.

 

We entered into an interest rate swap agreement beginning in September 2007 that effectively converts $18 million of our variable-rate debt bearing interest at the LIBOR one month rate to a 5.05% fixed rate basis for the next two years, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.  Approximately $17.8 million, or 7%, of our outstanding debt had its interest payments converted to the interest rate swap agreement at September 30, 2007.

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement at September 30, 2007 was approximately $166,000 and is included in Other Assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2007, we recognized a net gain of approximately $166,000 to record the swap agreement at fair value.

Item 2 – Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

On May 16, 2007, we announced that Mr. J.D. Nichols, Chairman of our managing general partner, adopted two pre-arranged trading plans to purchase our limited partnership units pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The plans authorized their administrator, Wells Fargo Investments, to purchase up to $168,000 of our limited partnership units from time to time, through no later than December 31, 2007, on behalf of two entities controlled or established by Mr. Nichols.  Under the terms of the plans, Mr. Nichols has no discretion or control over the timing, effectuation or the amount of each purchase.  During the three months ended September 30, 2007, the two entities controlled or established by Mr. Nichols purchased our limited partnership units as follows:
