Forward-Looking Statements

This report (including, but not limited to, the information contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) contains forward-looking statements.  All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this report, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.  When used, statements which are not historical in nature, including those containing words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  We have based forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  This report also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other industry data.  This data involves several assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates.  We have not independently verified the statistical and other industry data generated by independent parties which are contained in this report and, accordingly, we cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness.

These forward-looking statements are subject, but not limited, to various risks and uncertainties, including those relating to:

 

current maturities of our financing arrangements and our ability to renew or refinance such financing arrangements;

 

defaults on the mortgage loans securing our mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”);

 

the competitive environment in which we operate;

 

risks associated with investing in multifamily and student residential properties and commercial properties, including changes in business conditions and the general economy;

 

changes in interest rates;

 

our ability to use borrowings or obtain capital to finance our assets;

 

local, regional, national and international economic and credit market conditions;

 

recapture of previously issued Low Income Housing Tax Credits (“LIHTCs”) in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code;

 

changes in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (“HUD”) Capital Fund Program;

 

geographic concentration within the MRB portfolio held by the Partnership;

 

appropriations risk related to the funding of federal housing programs, including HUD Section 8; and

 

changes in the U.S. corporate tax code and other government regulations affecting our business.

Other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements we make. We are not obligated to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industry in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of America First Multifamily Investors, L.P.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

All references to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Partnership” in this document mean America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (“ATAX”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its consolidated variable interest entities.

AMERICA FIRST MULTIFAMILY INVESTORS, L.P.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on April 2, 1998, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring, holding, selling and otherwise dealing with a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”) that provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily and student housing residential properties (collectively “Residential Properties”) and commercial properties. The Partnership may also invest in other types of securities that may or may not be secured by real estate and may make property loans to multifamily residential properties which may or may not be financed by MRBs held by the Partnership.   The Partnership may acquire real estate securing its MRBs or property loans through foreclosure in the event of a default or through the receipt of a fee simple deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In addition, the Partnership may acquire interests in multifamily and student residential properties (“MF Properties”) in order to position itself for future investments in MRBs that finance these properties or to operate the MF Properties until their “highest and best use” can be determined by management.

The Partnership’s general partner is America First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Two (“AFCA 2” or “General Partner”).  The general partner of AFCA 2 is Greystone AF Manager LLC (“Greystone Manager”). The Partnership has previously issued Beneficial Unit Certificates (“BUCs”) representing assigned limited partnership interests to investors (“BUC holders”). The Partnership has issued non-cumulative, non-voting, non-convertible Series A Preferred Units (“Series A Preferred Units”) that represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership under the Partnership’s First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated September 15, 2015, as further amended (the “Amended and Restated LP Agreement”). The holders of the BUCs and Series A Preferred Units are referred to herein as “Unitholders.”     

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The “Partnership,” as used herein, includes America First Multifamily Investors, L.P., its consolidated subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (Note 5). All intercompany transactions are eliminated.  As of September 30, 2019, the consolidated subsidiaries of the Partnership consist of:

 

ATAX TEBS I, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the M24 Tax Exempt Bond Securitization (“TEBS”) Financing with the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”).

 

ATAX TEBS II, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the M31 TEBS Financing with Freddie Mac.

 

ATAX TEBS III, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the M33 TEBS Financing with Freddie Mac.

 

ATAX TEBS IV, LLC, a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership, created to hold MRBs to facilitate the M45 TEBS Financing with Freddie Mac.

 

ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, which is committed to loan money or provide equity for the development of multifamily properties.

 

One wholly-owned corporation (“the Greens Hold Co”).  The Greens Hold Co owns 100% of The 50/50 MF Property and certain property loans.

The Partnership also consolidates variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary.  See Note 5 for information regarding the Partnership’s consolidated VIEs.

 

10


 

Lease Accounting

 

On January 1, 2019, the Partnership adopted the lease guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842.  The Partnership adopted ASC 842 at the required adoption date of January 1, 2019, using the transition method that allowed the Partnership to initially apply ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of partners’ capital in the period of adoption. No changes have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements dated prior to the effective date related to the adoption of ASC 842.

 

Lessee Operating Leases  

 

The Partnership’s only material lessee lease is a ground lease at The 50/50 MF Property. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Partnership elected the package of practical expedients in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-11, elected not to apply ASC 842 to short-term leases and elected to combine lease and non-lease components when accounting for these lease arrangements.  On the date of adoption of ASC 842, the Partnership recognized operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets of $1.7 million, operating lease liabilities of $2.2 million, and an immaterial cumulative adjustment to partners’ capital.  The Partnership used a discount rate of 6.6% to calculate the ROU asset and lease liability related to the ground lease.  The discount rate is based on the Partnership’s estimated incremental borrowing rate to borrow, on a fully collateralized basis, over a similar term for the amount of contractual lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate was estimated using market transactions adjusted for differences in the term and security.

 

The Partnership’s lessee ROU assets are reflected in other assets on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheet (see Note 12).  The Partnership’s lessee operating lease liabilities are reflected in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheet (see Note 13).  See Note 13 for additional information on the Partnership’s ground lease.

 

Lessor Operating Leases

The Partnership’s lessor leases consist of tenant leases related to real estate assets, specifically at the MF Properties. Tenant leases also contain terms for non-lease revenues related to operations at the MF Properties, such as parking and food service revenues. The Partnership has elected to combine the lease and non-lease components when accounting for lessor leases. The unit lease component of the tenant lease is considered the predominant component, so all components of the tenant lease are accounted for under ASC 842. Tenant leases are typically for terms of 12 months or less and do not include extension options.  Lease revenue is recognized monthly and is reported within property revenues on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.  ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s accounting for its lessor arrangements with tenants at the MF Properties.

PHC Certificate Impairment

The Partnership periodically reviews the PHC Certificates for impairment. The Partnership evaluates whether declines in the fair value of the investments below amortized cost are other-than temporary. Factors considered include:

 

The duration and severity of the decline in fair value,

 

The Partnership’s intent to hold and the likelihood of it being required to sell the security before its value recovers,

 

Potential changes in HUD appropriations to local housing authorities,

 

Downgrade in the security’s rating by Standard & Poor’s, and

 

Volatility of the fair value of the security.

 

Real Estate Assets Impairment

The Partnership reviews real estate assets for impairment at least quarterly and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment suggest that the carrying value of a real estate asset may not be recoverable, the Partnership compares the carrying amount of the real estate asset to the undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the asset. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted net cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value.

11


 

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation.

 

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Partnership reported amortization of deferred financing costs within interest expense in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.  Previously, “Amortization of deferred financing costs expense” had been reported as a separate line item in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.  Accordingly, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Partnership has included amortization of deferred financing costs expense within interest expense in conformity with the current reporting period presented herein. This reclassification has no effect on the Partnership’s reported net income or partners’ capital in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

Estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management 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.  The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such SEC rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared consistently with the 2018 Form 10-K, with the exception of new accounting standards that were adopted and reclassifications that are discussed herein. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Partnership’s financial position as of September 30, 2019, and the results of operations for the interim periods presented, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited annual consolidated financial statements but does not contain all the footnote disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The ASU enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit losses for financial assets, to include the use of reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to better estimate credit losses. The ASU is effective for the Partnership’s annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be applied using a modified-retrospective approach. In October 2019, the FASB approved a delay in the effective date of this ASU for smaller reporting companies, such as the Partnership, and other non-SEC reporting entities.  The FASB expects to issue two final ASUs relating to this matter in mid-November 2019. The new ASUs will delay the effective date for such entities to fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal periods.  As the Partnership is a smaller reporting company, it may elect to delay its effective date. The Partnership has completed an assessment of the items that are within the scope of the new ASU. The items include property loans, receivables reported within other assets, financial guarantees and commitments. Also within the scope of the ASU are changes to the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, which includes the Partnership’s MRBs, PHC Certificates, and taxable MRBs.  The Partnership is currently developing data collection processes, assessment procedures and internal controls required to implement the ASU for such items in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Partnership is continuing to evaluate whether to defer their implementation date of the ASU and will make a final determination in the fourth quarter of 2019.

 

In July 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-07, “Codification Updates to SEC Sections” which amends the SEC Rules, Regulations and Interpretations section of various topics within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.  The amendments were made as the result of the SEC’s Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, “Disclosure Update and Simplification”, No. 33-10231, “Investment Company Reporting Modernization”, and No. 33-10442, “Miscellaneous Update”.  The Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are in compliance with the relevant Codification updates. There were no significant changes to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of the ASU.

3. Partnership Income, Expenses and Cash Distributions  

The Amended and Restated LP Agreement of the Partnership contains provisions for the distribution of Net Interest Income, Net Residual Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds; for the allocation of income or loss from operations; and for the allocation of income and loss arising from a repayment, sale, or liquidation of investments.  Income and losses will be allocated to each Unitholder on a periodic basis, as determined by the General Partner, based on the number of Series A Preferred Units and BUCs held by each Unitholder as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is to be made. Distributions of Net Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds will be made to each Unitholder of record on the last day of each distribution period based on the number of Series A Preferred Units and BUCs held by each Unitholder on that date. Cash distributions are currently made on a quarterly basis.  

The holders of the Series A Preferred Units are entitled to distributions at a fixed rate of 3.0% per annum prior to payment of distributions to other Unitholders.

 

Net Interest Income (Tier 1) is allocated 99% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class and 1% to the General Partner. Net Interest Income (Tier 2) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 2) are allocated 75% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class and 25% to the General Partner.  Net Interest Income (Tier 2) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 2) in excess of the maximum allowable amount as set forth in the Amended and Restated LP Agreement are considered Net Interest Income (Tier 3) and Net Residual Proceeds (Tier 3) and are allocated 100% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class.

 

4. Net income per BUC

The Partnership has disclosed basic and diluted net income per BUC on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The unvested Restricted Unit Awards (“RUAs”) issued under the Partnership’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) are considered participating securities. There were no dilutive BUCs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

 

5. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs

The Partnership has determined the Tender Option Bond (“TOB”), Term TOB, Term A/B and TEBS Financings are VIEs and the Partnership is the primary beneficiary. In determining the primary beneficiary of each VIE, the Partnership considered which party has the power to control the activities of the VIE which most significantly impact their financial performance, the risks that the entity was designed to create, and how each risk affects the VIE.  The executed agreements related to the TOB, Term TOB, Term A/B and TEBS Financings stipulate the Partnership has the sole right to cause the trusts to sell the underlying assets. If underlying assets were sold, the extent to which the VIEs will be exposed to gains or losses would result from decisions made by the Partnership.

As the primary beneficiary, the Partnership reports the TOB, Term TOB, Term A/B and TEBS Financings on a consolidated basis. The Partnership reports the senior Floater Certificates for the TOB Trusts and the Class A Certificates for the Term TOB, Term A/B Trusts and TEBS Financings as secured debt financings on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets (see Note 15). The MRBs secured by the TOB, Term TOB, Term A/B and TEBS Financings are reported as assets on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets (see Notes 6 and 7).

Non-Consolidated VIEs

The Partnership has variable interests in various entities in the form of MRBs, property loans and investments in unconsolidated entities. These variable interests do not allow the Partnership to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of such VIEs. As a result, the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate the financial statements of these VIEs in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Partnership held variable interests in 16 and 17 non-consolidated VIEs as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The following table summarizes the Partnership’s variable interests in these entities as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

The maximum exposure to loss for the MRBs as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is equal to the cost adjusted for paydowns. The difference between an MRB’s carrying value on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and the maximum exposure to loss is a function of the unrealized gains or losses on the MRB. 

 

The maximum exposure to loss on the property loans as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is equal to the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest. The difference between a property loan’s carrying value and the maximum exposure is the value of loan loss allowances, if any, that have been previously recorded against the property loan.

 

The maximum exposure to loss for investments in unconsolidated entities as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is equal to the Partnership’s carrying value.

6. Investments in Mortgage Revenue Bonds

MRBs owned by the Partnership provide construction and/or permanent financing for Residential Properties and a commercial property.  MRBs are either held directly by the Partnership or are held in trusts created in connection with debt financing transactions (Note 15). The Partnership had the following investments in MRBs as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

As of the date presented, the MRB had been in a cumulative unrealized loss position for less than 12 consecutive months.

 

See Note 22 for a description of the methodology and significant assumptions used in determining the fair value of the MRBs. Unrealized gains or losses on the MRBs are recorded in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) to reflect changes in their estimated fair values resulting from market conditions and fluctuations in the present value of the expected cash flows from the MRBs.

 

Cumulative unrealized loss positions on MRBs are not considered credit losses as of September 30, 2019.  The cumulative unrealized loss for the Pro Nova 2014-1 MRB, related to a commercial property, as of September 30, 2019, is a result of fluctuations in market interest rates and comparable trades of MRBs for similar commercial properties. Due to the historical volatility of the fair value of this MRB, the cumulative unrealized loss is considered temporary. The cumulative unrealized loss for the Live 929 Apartments MRB as of September 30, 2019, is due to recent operational results and debt service coverage declines. The Partnership has evaluated the operational results and loan-to-collateral value ratio for the property underlying this MRB and has determined that the cumulative unrealized loss is temporary.

7. Public Housing Capital Fund Trust (“PHC”) Certificates

The Partnership’s PHC Certificates represent beneficial interests in three PHC Trusts. The assets held by the PHC Trusts consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to numerous local public housing authorities.  Principal and interest on these loans are payable by the respective public housing authorities out of annual appropriations to be made to the public housing authorities under the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (“HUD”) Capital Fund Program established under the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (the “Capital Fund Program”).  The PHC Trusts have a first lien on these annual Capital Fund Program payments to secure the public housing authorities’ respective obligations to pay principal and interest on their loans.  The loans payable by the public housing authorities are not debts of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America or HUD.  Interest payable on the public housing authority debt held by the PHC Trusts is exempt from federal income taxes.  The PHC Certificates issued by each of the PHC Trusts have been rated investment grade by Standard & Poor’s. The PHC Certificates are held in trust at Mizuho Capital Markets, LLC (“Mizuho”) in secured financing transactions as of September 30, 2019 (see Note 15).

The Partnership had the following investments in the PHC Certificates as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

See Note 22 for a description of the methodology and significant assumptions for determining the fair value of the PHC Certificates. Unrealized gains or losses on the PHC Certificates are recorded in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income to reflect changes in their estimated fair values resulting from market conditions and fluctuations in the present value of the expected cash flows from the PHC Certificates.

 

The Partnership recognized an impairment charge on the three PHC Certificates of approximately $310,000 and $1.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. See Note 2 for information considered in the Partnership’s evaluation of impairment of the PHC Certificates.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the interest to be earned on the Cross Creek property loans was in nonaccrual status.  The discounted cash flow method used by management to establish the net realizable value of these property loans determined the collection of the interest earned since inception was not probable.  In addition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, interest to be earned on approximately $983,000 of property loan principal for the Ohio Properties and all principal for Live 929 Apartments was in nonaccrual status as, in management’s opinion, the interest was not considered collectible.

 

Activity in the First Nine Months of 2019

 

In August 2019, the Partnership entered into a secured property loan with Live 929 Apartments. The property may request additional advances for the sole purpose of funding monthly operating shortfalls up to a total loan amount of $1.0 million. The property loan is subordinate to the MRBs associated with the property and has a stated maturity date of July 31, 2049.

 

In January 2019, the Vantage at Brooks property was sold by its owner. Upon sale, the Partnership received all outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Vantage at Brooks, LLC property loan. The Partnership received additional proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, which is recorded as contingent interest on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The contingent interest recognized is considered Tier 2 income for purposes of distributions to the General Partner and BUC holders (see Note 3).

Activity in the First Nine Months of 2018

 

In September 2018, the Lake Forest property was sold by its owner.  Upon the sale, the Partnership received all outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Lake Forest property loans. The Partnership received approximately $5.1 million of principal and approximately $4.6 million of interest on the property loans at sale. The interest received was not previously recognized as income as the property loans were on nonaccrual status. The interest realized is reported within other interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

 

11. Income Tax Provision

 

The Partnership recognizes current income tax expense for federal, state, and local income taxes incurred by the Greens Hold Co, which owns The 50/50 MF Property and certain property loans.

The 50/50 MF Property has a ground lease with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with an initial lease term expiring in March 2038. The Partnership has an option to extend the lease for an additional five-year period, which has not been factored into the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability.  Annual lease payments are $100 per year. The Partnership is also required to make monthly payments, when cash is available at The 50/50 MF Property, to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Payment amounts are based on The 50/50 MF Property’s revenues, subject to an annual guaranteed minimum amount.  As of September 30, 2019, the minimum aggregate annual payment due under the agreement is approximately $132,000. The minimum aggregate annual payment increases 2% annually until July 31, 2034 and increases 3% annually thereafter.  The 50/50 MF Property will be required to make additional payments under the agreement if its gross revenues exceed certain thresholds.  The Partnership recognized expenses related to the ground lease of approximately $42,000 and $126,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and are included within real estate operating expenses on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The TOB, Term TOB and Term A/B Trusts with Deutsche Bank are subject to a Master Trust Agreement that contains covenants with which the Partnership is required to comply. If the Partnership were to be out of compliance with any of these covenants, a termination event of the financing facilities would be triggered which would require the Partnership to purchase a portion or all of the senior SPEARS or Class A Certificates held by Deutsche Bank. The most restrictive covenant within the Master Trust Agreement states that cash available to distribute plus interest expense for the trailing twelve months must be at least twice the trailing twelve-month interest expense. The Partnership was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2019.

 

The TOB Trusts with Mizuho require that the Partnership’s residual interest in the TOB Trusts maintain a certain value in relation to the total assets in each Trust.  If the Partnership is not in compliance with any of these covenants, a termination event of the financing facility would be triggered which would require the Partnership to purchase a portion or all of the senior interests issued by each TOB Trust. The Partnership was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2019.

 

The Term TOB Trust with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. (“Morgan Stanley”) is subject to a Trust Agreement and other related agreements that contains covenants with which the Partnership is required to comply.  If the Partnership is out of compliance with any of these covenants, a termination event of the financing facility would be triggered which would require the Partnership to purchase a portion or all of the Class A Certificates held by Morgan Stanley.  The most restrictive covenant within the Trust Agreement and related agreements requires the maintenance of a debt service coverage ratio above a specified threshold and the Partnership’s net assets cannot decline by more than specific percentages over designated periods of time.  The Partnership was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2019.

 

The Partnership’s variable rate debt financing arrangements include maximum interest rate provisions that prevent the debt service on the debt financings from exceeding the cash flows from the underlying securitized asset.

 

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Partnership had posted restricted cash as contractually required under the terms of the four TEBS Financings. In addition, the Partnership has entered in interest rate cap agreements to mitigate its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on the variable-rate debt financings (Note 17).

 

The TOB, Term TOB, Term A/B and TEBS Financing arrangements are consolidated VIE’s to the Partnership (Note 5). As the residual interest holder, the Partnership may be required to make certain payments or contribute certain assets to the VIEs if certain events occur. Such events include, but are not limited to, a downgrade in the investment rating of PHCs or of the senior securities issued by the VIEs, a ratings downgrade of the liquidity provider for the VIEs, increases in short term interest rates beyond pre-set maximums, an inability to re-market the senior securities or an inability to obtain liquidity for the senior securities. If such an event occurs in an individual VIE, the underlying collateral may be sold and, if the proceeds are not sufficient to pay the principal amount of the senior securities plus accrued interest and other trust expenses, the Partnership will be required to fund any such shortfall. If the Partnership does not fund the shortfall, the default and liquidation provisions will be invoked against the Partnership. The Partnership has never been, and does not expect in the future, to be required to reimburse the VIEs for any shortfall.

 

Debt Financing Activity in the First Nine Months of 2019

 

New Debt Financings:

 

In July 2019, the Partnership refinanced the M24 TEBS Financing with Freddie Mac. The M24 TEBS Financing was converted to a fixed interest rate of 3.05%, which is inclusive of credit enhancement and servicing fees, and the stated maturity was extended to May 2027. The refinancing was treated as an extinguishment for accounting purposes and the Partnership capitalized approximately $307,000 as deferred financing costs related to the refinancing.

 

In July 2019, the Partnership refinanced the M33 TEBS Financing with Freddie Mac. The M33 TEBS Financing converted to a fixed interest rate of 3.24%, which is inclusive of credit enhancement and servicing fees, and the stated maturity was extended to September 2030. The refinancing was treated as an extinguishment for accounting purposes and the Partnership expensed approximately $496,000 of previously unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the M33 TEBS Financing. The Partnership capitalized approximately $265,000 as deferred financing costs related to the refinancing. The Partnership received premium proceeds upon refinancing of approximately $435,000, which will be amortized using the effective interest method through the term of the agreement.

During the third quarter of 2019, The Partnership entered into various TOB Trust financings with Mizuho secured by MRBs and PHC Certificates. Under each TOB Trust structure, the trustee issues senior Floater Certificates and Residual Certificates that represent beneficial interests in the securitized asset held by the TOB Trusts. The Floater Certificates are sold to unaffiliated investors and entitle the holder to cash flows from the securitized assets at a stated interest rate. The Floater Certificates are credit enhanced by Mizuho such that Mizuho will cover any shortfall if the cash flows from the securitized assets are less than the contractual principal and interest due to the Floater Certificate holders. The Partnership would then be required to reimburse Mizuho for any credit enhancement payments. The Residual Certificates are retained by the Partnership and grant the Partnership rights to certain cash flows from the securitized assets after payment to the Floater Certificates and related trust fees, as well as certain other rights to the securitized assets. The TOB Trusts are considered VIEs (Note 5) because the Partnership’s rights are such that the Partnership is the primary beneficiary and the Partnership consolidates the TOB Trusts in its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the Partnership and its newly created consolidated subsidiary, ATAX TEBS IV, LLC (the “2018 Sponsor”), entered into a long-term debt financing facility provided through the securitization of 25 MRBs, with an initial par value of approximately $260.6 million owned by the 2018 Sponsor pursuant to the M45 TEBS Financing. The M45 TEBS financing facility provides the Partnership with a long-term fixed-rate facility. Of the 25 MRBs securitized in the M45 TEBS Financings, 24 MRBs were in Term A/B Trusts that were collapsed prior to the closing of the M45 TEBS Financing. The collapse of the Term A/B Trusts and subsequent closing of the M45 TEBS Financing resulted in a debt modification for accounting purposes and the Partnership capitalized approximately $371,000 as deferred financing costs.

 

In August 2018, the Partnership entered into four Term A/B Trusts financings secured by various MRBs. The following table summarizes the gross principal and terms of the Term A/B Trusts:

See Note 22 for additional details.

 

In August 2019, the Partnership purchased an interest rate derivative intended to cap the variable interest rate component of the M31 TEBS Financing at 4.5%. The Partnership paid approximately $30,000 for the interest rate derivative.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Partnership was a party to two interest rate swaps with Deutsche Bank, which were designated to mitigate interest rate risk for the variable-rate TOB Trusts secured by the Partnership’s PHC Certificates. The interest rate swaps were terminated in September 2018 and October 2018.

 

The Partnership’s interest rate derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value are included in current period earnings as interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 22 for a description of the methodology and significant assumptions for determining the fair value of the interest rate derivatives. The interest rate derivatives are presented within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  

 

18. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Partnership, from time to time, may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are frequently covered by insurance. If it has been determined that a loss is probable to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is accrued in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Partnership believes the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Construction Loan Guarantees

The Partnership entered into guaranty agreements for construction loans related to certain investments in unconsolidated entities. The Partnership will only have to perform on the guarantees if a default by the borrower were to occur.  All guarantees were initially for the entire amount of the respective construction loan and decrease based on the achievement of certain events or financial ratios, as defined by the respective construction loan agreement.  The Partnership has not accrued any amount for these contingent liabilities because the likelihood of guarantee claims is remote. The following table summarizes the Partnership’s maximum exposure under these guarantee agreements as of September 30, 2019:

The Partnership’s maximum exposure will decrease to 50% of the construction loan balance upon receipt of the certificate of occupancy and to 25% of the construction loan balance when certain debt service coverage levels are achieved by the borrower.

Other Guarantees and Commitments

The Partnership has entered into guarantee agreements with unaffiliated entities under which the Partnership has guaranteed certain obligations of the general partners of certain limited partnerships upon the occurrence of a “repurchase event.” Potential repurchase events include the delivery of LIHTCs, tax credit recapture and foreclosure. The Partnership’s maximum exposure is limited to 75% of the equity contributed by the limited partner to each limited partnership. No amount has been accrued for these guarantees because the likelihood of repurchase events is remote. The following table summarizes the Partnership’s maximum exposure under these guarantee agreements as of September 30, 2019:

The Partnership has agreed, in limited instances, to indemnify certain parties to the TOB Trusts related to the PHC Certificates for claims by the Floater Certificates holders related to the calculation of interest and principal payments. The maximum exposure for such claims is up to the total value of the Floater Certificates plus accrued interest. The Partnership has not accrued any amount for this commitment as of September 30, 2019 because the likelihood of a claim is remote. The maximum exposure was approximately $36.0 million as of September 30, 2019.

 

19. Redeemable Series A Preferred Units

 

The Partnership has issued non-cumulative, non-voting, non-convertible Series A Preferred Units via private placements to five financial institutions. The Series A Preferred Units represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership and are redeemable in the future. The balance of Series A Preferred Units on the condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented net of issuance costs.

20. Restricted Unit Awards (“RUAs”)

The Plan, as approved by the BUC holders, permits the grant of RUAs and other awards to the employees of Greystone Manager, the Partnership, or any affiliate of either, and members of the Board of Managers of Greystone Manager for up to 3.0 million BUCs. RUAs are generally granted with vesting conditions ranging from three months to approximately three years. Unvested RUAs are entitled to receive distributions during the restriction period. The RUAs provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control related to the Partnership, the General Partner, or Greystone Manager; or death or disability of the participant. All of the restrictions applicable to the previously unvested RUAs lapsed and all such RUAs became immediately vested and nonforfeitable upon the closing of the previously disclosed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding partnership interests in the General Partner from Burlington Capital LLC (“Burlington”) by Greystone Manager and Greystone AF Holdings, LLC (“Greystone Holdings,” and collectively with Greystone Manager, “Greystone”), which occurred on September 10, 2019.

The fair value of each RUA is estimated on the grant date based on the Partnership’s exchange-listed closing price of the BUCs. The Partnership recognizes compensation expense for the RUAs on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. The compensation expense for RUAs totaled approximately $3,266,000 and $622,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.  The compensation expense for RUAs totaled approximately $3,636,000 and $1,372,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Compensation expense is reported within general and administrative expenses in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

21. Transactions with Related Parties

 

Effective September 10, 2019, Greystone acquired all of the issued and outstanding partnership interests of AFCA 2, at which time Burlington and its affiliates ceased to be related parties of the Partnership. The disclosures herein related to Burlington and its affiliates only reflect transactions that occurred through September 9, 2019.  

 

The Partnership incurs costs for services and makes contractual payments to AFCA 2, the general partner of AFCA 2, and their affiliates. The costs are reported either as expenses or capitalized costs depending on the nature of each item. The following table summarizes transactions with related parties that are reflected in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

(1)

The General Partner of the Partnership, AFCA 2, is entitled to receive an administrative fee from the Partnership equal to 0.45% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of any of its MRBs, property loans collateralized by real property, and other investments for which the owner of the financed property or other third party is not obligated to pay such administrative fee directly to AFCA 2. The disclosed amounts represent administrative fees paid or accrued during the periods specified and are reported within general and administrative expenses on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(2)

An affiliate of AFCA 2, Burlington Capital Properties, LLC (“Properties Management”), provides property management, administrative and marketing services for the MF Properties (excluding Suites on Paseo). The property management fees are reported within real estate operating expenses in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(3)

The Partnership pays franchise margin taxes on revenues in Texas related to its investments in unconsolidated entities. Such taxes are paid by the Partnership as the unconsolidated entities are required by tax regulations to be included in the Partnership’s group tax return. The Partnership is then reimbursed for franchise margin taxes paid on behalf of the unconsolidated entities.

 

AFCA 2 receives fees from the borrowers of the Partnership’s MRBs for services provided to the borrower and based on the occurrence of certain investment and debt financing transactions. These fees were paid by the borrowers and are not reflected in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table summarizes transactions between borrowers of the Partnership’s MRBs and affiliates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

AFCA 2 received administrative fees directly from the owners of certain properties financed by certain MRBs held by the Partnership.  These administrative fees equal 0.45% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of the MRBs. These amounts represent administrative fees received by AFCA 2 during the periods specified.

(2)

AFCA 2 received placement fees in connection with the acquisition of certain MRBs and investments in unconsolidated entities.  

(3)

AFCA 2 received a one-time administrative fee related to early redemption of the Lake Forest MRB from the property in September 2018.

 

In addition, Properties Management provided services to seven of the properties collateralizing MRBs of the Partnership and one of the Partnership’s investments in unconsolidated entities. These property management fees are paid out of the revenues generated by the respective property prior to the payment of debt service on the Partnership's MRBs and property loans, as applicable, and the construction loan for the unconsolidated entity. Properties Management ceased to be a related party effective September 10, 2019.

The Partnership reported receivables due from unconsolidated entities and affiliates totaling approximately $29,000 and $77,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These amounts are reported within other assets on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Partnership had outstanding liabilities due to related parties totaling approximately $599,000 and $330,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These amounts are reported within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

22. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Current accounting guidance on fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and provides for expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.  The guidance:

 

Defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and

 

Establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date.

Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.  To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.  The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for asset or liabilities.

35


 

The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following are descriptions of the valuation methodologies used for the Partnership’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Investments in MRBs

The fair value of the Partnership’s investments in MRBs and taxable MRBs, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, is based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the MRBs and price quotes for the MRBs are not available. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each MRB as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, legal structure of the borrower, collateral, seniority or subordination to other obligations, operating results of the underlying property, geographic location, and property quality. These characteristics are used to estimate an effective yield for each MRB. The MRB fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis by applying the effective yield to contractual cash flows. Significant increases (decreases) in the effective yield would have resulted in a significantly lower (higher) fair value estimate. Changes in fair value due to an increase or decrease in the effective yield do not impact the Partnership’s cash flows.

The Partnership evaluates pricing data received from the third-party pricing service by evaluating consistency with information from either the third-party pricing service or public sources. The fair value estimates of the MRBs and taxable MRBs are based largely on unobservable inputs believed to be used by market participants and require the use of judgment on the part of the third-party pricing service and the Partnership. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurements of the Partnership’s investments in MRBs and taxable MRBs are categorized as a Level 3 input. As of September 30, 2019, the range of effective yields on the individual MRBs was 2.6% to 8.7% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 3.8% when weighted by the total principal outstanding of all MRBs as of the reporting date; and the range of effective yields on the individual taxable MRBs was 8.1% to 8.8% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 8.6% when weighted by the total principal outstanding of all taxable MRBs as of the reporting date.  As of December 31, 2018, the range of effective yields on the individual MRBs was 3.3% to 9.1% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 4.6% when weighted by the total principal outstanding of all MRBs as of the reporting date; and the range of effective yields on the individual taxable MRBs was 8.3% to 9.3% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 9.1% when weighted by the total principal outstanding of all taxable MRBs as of the reporting date.

Investments in PHC Certificates  

The fair value of the Partnership’s investment in PHC Certificates as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the PHC Certificates owned by the Partnership. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each PHC Certificate as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, security ratings from rating agencies, the impact of potential political and regulatory change, and other inputs.

The Partnership reviews the inputs used by the primary third-party pricing service by reviewing source information and reviews the methodology for reasonableness.  The Partnership also engages a second third-party pricing service to confirm the values developed by the primary third-party pricing service. The valuation methodologies used by the third-party pricing services encompass the use of judgment in their application. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurement of the Partnership’s investment in PHC Certificates is categorized as a Level 3 input. As of September 30, 2019, the range of effective yields on the PHC Certificates was 4.5% to 5.4% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 5.3% when weighted by the principal outstanding of all PHC Certificates as of the reporting date. As of December 31, 2018, the range of effective yields on the PHC Certificates was 5.3% to 6.0% per annum, with a weighted average effective yield of 5.5% when weighted by the principal outstanding of all PHC Certificates as of the reporting date.

Interest Rate Derivatives.  

The effect of the Partnership’s interest rate derivatives is to set a cap, or upper limit, subject to performance by the counterparty, on the base rate of interest paid on the Partnership’s variable rate debt financings equal to the notional amount of the derivative agreement.   The effect of the Partnership’s interest rate swaps is to change a variable-rate debt obligation to a fixed rate for that portion of the debt equal to the notional amount of the derivative agreement.  The fair value of the interest rate derivatives is based on a model whose inputs are not observable and therefore is categorized as a Level 3 input.  The inputs in the valuation model include three-month LIBOR rates, unobservable adjustments to account for the SIFMA index, as well as any recent interest rate cap trades with similar terms.

Total gains and loss included in earnings for the interest rate derivatives are reported as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In September 2019 and 2018, the Partnership determined that the land held for development in Gardner, KS was impaired. The Partnership recorded impairment charges of $75,000 and $150,000 in the third quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively. The impairment charges represent the difference between the Partnership’s carrying value and the estimated fair value of the land.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Partnership utilized a third-party pricing service to determine the fair value of the Partnership’s financial liabilities, which are indicative of market prices. The valuation methodology of the Partnership’s third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each financial liability as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, legal structure, seniority to other obligations, operating results of the underlying assets, and asset quality. The financial liabilities values are then estimated using a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis.

The Partnership evaluates pricing data received from the third-party pricing service, including consideration of current market interest rates, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the underlying collateral, and other information from either the third-party pricing service or public sources. The fair value estimates of these financial liabilities are based largely on unobservable inputs believed to be used by market participants and require the use of judgment on the part of the third-party pricing service and the Partnership. Due to the judgments involved, the fair value measurements of the Partnership’s financial liabilities are categorized as a Level 3 input. The TEBS Financings are credit enhanced by Freddie Mac. The variable-rate TOB Trust financings are credit enhanced by either Deutsche Bank or Mizuho. The table below summarizes the fair value of the financial liabilities as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

23. Segments

 

The Partnership has four reportable segments - Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments, MF Properties, Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts, and Other Investments.  In addition to the four reportable segments, the Partnership also separately reports its consolidation and elimination information because it does not allocate certain items to the segments.

The Amended and Restated LP Agreement authorizes the Partnership to make investments in tax-exempt securities other than MRBs provided that the tax-exempt investments are rated in one of the four highest rating categories by a national securities rating agency. The Amended and Restated LP Agreement also allows the Partnership to invest in other securities whose interest may be taxable for federal income tax purposes. Total tax-exempt securities, other than MRBs and other investments, cannot exceed 25% of the Partnership’s total assets at the time of acquisition as required under the Amended and Restated LP Agreement.  In addition, the amount of other investments is limited based on the conditions to the exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  The Partnership’s tax-exempt securities, other than MRBs and other investments, include PHC Certificates and Other Investments, which are reported as separate segments.

 

Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments Segment

The Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments segment consists of the Partnership’s portfolio of MRBs and related property loans which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for Residential Properties and commercial properties in their market areas.  Such MRBs are held as investments and the related property loans, net of loan loss allowance, are reported as such on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.  As of September 30, 2019, the Partnership held 76 MRBs. The Residential Properties financed by MRBs contain a total of 10,871 rental units. In addition, one MRB (Pro Nova 2014-1) is collateralized by commercial real estate. All general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations are reported within this segment.

 

39


 

MF Properties Segment

The MF Properties segment consists of multifamily and student housing residential properties held by the Partnership. During the time the Partnership holds an interest in an MF Property, any net rental income generated by the MF Properties in excess of debt service will be available for distribution to the Partnership.  As of September 30, 2019, the segment includes two MF Properties comprised of a total of 859 rental units. Income tax expense for the Greens Hold Co is reported within this segment.

 

Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts Segment

The Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts segment consists of the assets, liabilities, and related income and expenses of the Partnership’s PHC Certificates (Note 7) and the related debt financings.

 

Other Investments Segment

The Other Investments segment consists of the operations of ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, which invests in unconsolidated entities (Note 9) and made property loans to certain multifamily housing properties (Note 10).

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

In this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, all references to “we,” “us,” and the “Partnership” refer to America First Multifamily Investors, L.P., its consolidated subsidiaries, and consolidated VIEs for all periods presented. See Note 2 and Note 5 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for further disclosure.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership’s critical accounting policies are the same as those described in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

Executive Summary

The Partnership was formed for the primary purpose of acquiring a portfolio of MRBs that are issued by state and local housing authorities to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily and student housing (collectively “Residential Properties”), and commercial properties in their market areas. We expect and believe the interest received on these bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. We may also invest in other types of securities and investments that may or may not be secured by real estate, to the extent allowed by the Partnership’s Amended and Restated LP Agreement.

The Partnership includes the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Partnership, our wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs. All significant transactions and accounts between us and the consolidated VIEs have been eliminated in consolidation. See Note 2 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

As of September 30, 2019, we have four reportable segments: (1) Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments, (2) Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts, (3) MF Properties, and (4) Other Investments. The Partnership separately reports its consolidation and elimination information because it does not allocate certain items to the segments.  See Notes 2 and 23 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

(1)

The decrease in volume is due primarily to the redemption of the Vantage at Judson Series B MRB in December 2018 and the scheduled redemption of various subordinate bonds during 2018.

(2)

The increase in rate for the variable TEBS financing was due primarily to approximately $496,000 of previously unamortized deferred financing costs that were recognized as interest expense upon refinancing of the M33 TEBS financing to a fixed interest rate in July 2019.

(3)

The fixed-rate M45 TEBS Financing closed in August 2018 through the securitization of 25 MRBs. Of the 25 MRBs included in the financing, 24 MRBs were in Term A/B Trusts that were collapsed prior to the closing of the M45 TEBS Financing.  

 

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

The decrease in total revenues and the increase in total interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the rate and volume changes noted in the tables above.

 

Segment net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased as compared to the same period in 2018. The change consisted of the decrease in total revenues and increase in interest expense detailed in the tables above, offset by an increase of approximately $2.6 million in restricted unit compensation expense related to issuances and vesting during the third quarter of 2019. Upon the closing of the acquisition by Greystone of AFCA 2 on September 10, 2019, all outstanding restricted units vested and all previously unrecognized compensation expense was recognized. In addition, there was an increase of approximately $530,000 in professional fees due primarily to lower than usual consulting expenses in the third quarter of 2018.

 

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

The decrease in total revenues and increase in total interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the rate and volume changes noted in the tables above.

 

The decrease in segment net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the decrease in total revenues and increase in interest expense detailed in the tables above and an increase of approximately $2.3 million in restricted unit compensation related to vesting in the third quarter of 2019. Upon the closing of the acquisition by Greystone of AFCA 2 on September 10, 2019, all outstanding restricted units vested and all previously unrecognized compensation expense was recognized.

 

Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts Segment

 

The PHC Certificates within this segment consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to public housing authorities.  Principal and interest on these loans are payable by the respective public housing authorities out of annual appropriations to be made to the public housing authorities by HUD under HUD’s Capital Fund Program.

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

Total revenues were down slightly for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periods in 2018 due to principal repayments.

 

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to fair value adjustments to interest rate swaps. The net increase in interest expense related to these adjustments was approximately $48,000, partially offset by the impact of lower interest rates and principal balances.

 

The increase in segment net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the revenue and interest expense changes noted above and an impairment charge of approximately $310,000 recognized in the third quarter of 2018 that did not recur in 2019.

 

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

Total revenues were down slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periods in 2018 due to principal repayments.

 

The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to fair value adjustments to interest rate swaps. The net increase in interest expense related to these adjustments was approximately $588,000, partially offset by the impact of lower interest rates and principal balances.

 

The increase in segment net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the revenue and interest expense changes noted above and impairment charges of approximately  $1.1 million recognized in 2018 that did not recur in 2019.

 

MF Properties Segment

 

The Partnership’s strategy has been to acquire ownership positions in MF Properties while assessing the viability of restructuring the property ownership through a sale of the MF Properties. As of September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries owned two MF Properties which contained a total of 859 rental units.

Physical occupancy is defined as the total number of units occupied divided by total units at the date of measurement.

51


 

(2)

Economic occupancy is defined as the net rental income received divided by the maximum amount of rental income to be derived from each property. This statistic is reflective of rental concessions, delinquent rents and non-revenue units such as model units and employee units. Physical occupancy is a point in time measurement while economic occupancy is a measurement over the period presented. Therefore, economic occupancy for a period may exceed the actual occupancy at any point in time.

(3)

A property is considered stabilized once it reaches 90% physical occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for a period after construction completion or completion of the rehabilitation.

(4)

The Ohio Properties consist of Crescent Village, located in Cincinnati, Ohio, Willow Bend, located in Columbus (Hilliard), Ohio and Postwoods, located in Reynoldsburg, Ohio.

(5)

The MRB associated with the property was redeemed during 2018, so the number of units and occupancy are not applicable as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

(6)

The property relates to a forward bond purchase commitment that was executed after September 30, 2018. The property was considered stabilized when the MRB was acquired. Information was not available for the 2018 periods presented.

(7)

Previous period occupancy information is not available as these are new investments acquired after September 30, 2018.

(8)

The physical and economic occupancy amounts are based on the latest available occupancy and financial information, which is as of June 30, 2019.

(9)

The economic occupancy amounts are based on the latest available financial information, which is as of June 30, 2019. Physical occupancy is as of September 30, 2019.

 

Physical and economic occupancy as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were relatively consistent with the same period in 2018.

(1)

Physical occupancy is defined as the total number of units occupied divided by total units at the date of measurement.

(2)

Economic occupancy is defined as the net rental income received divided by the maximum amount of rental income to be derived from each property. This statistic is reflective of rental concessions, delinquent rents and non-revenue units such as model units and employee units. Physical occupancy is a point in time measurement while economic occupancy is a measurement over the period presented. Therefore, economic occupancy for a period may exceed the actual occupancy at any point in time.

(3)

These properties were undergoing rehabilitation.  As such, these properties are not considered stabilized as they have not met the criteria for stabilization. A property is considered stabilized once it reaches 90% physical occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for a period after completion of the rehabilitation.

(4)

Previous period occupancy information is not available as this was a new investment acquired after September 30, 2018.

 

Physical occupancy for the non-stabilized Residential Properties increased as of September 30, 2019 as compared to September 30, 2018 due to a new investment in Montevista with higher than average occupancy and increased occupancy at Rosewood Townhomes and South Pointe Apartments, which are nearing the completion of rehabilitation projects begun in 2018.

 

Economic occupancy for the non-stabilized Residential Properties increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 due to increasing physical occupancy at Rosewood Townhomes and South Pointe Apartments. We expect economic occupancy for these non-stabilized properties to increase in future periods as the properties complete rehabilitation and lease-up.

MF Properties

As of September 30, 2019, we owned two MF Properties. We report the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of these properties on a consolidated basis.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, both MF Properties met the stabilization criteria (see footnote 3 below the table). The MF properties are encumbered by mortgage loans with an aggregate principal balance of $27.1 million as of September 30, 2019.  Debt service on our mortgage payables was current as of September 30, 2019.

A property is considered stabilized once it reaches 90% physical occupancy for 90 days and an achievement of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service for all MF Properties that are not student housing residential properties. Suites on Paseo and The 50/50 MF Property are student housing residential properties.

 

The physical and economic occupancy as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were consistent as compared to the same period in 2018. These projects are stabilized and we are focused on maintaining high occupancy and efficient operations.

Discussion of the Total Revenues and Other Income for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

Property revenues.  The decrease in property revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 is due primarily to a decrease of approximately $396,000 from the sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018.

53


 

Investment income.    The decrease in investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the following factors:

 

Decreases of approximately of approximately $411,000 and $350,000 related to decreasing MRB volume and interest rates, respectively. See discussion of volume and interest rate changes in the Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments segment previously included in Item 2; and

 

An increase of approximately $646,000 in investment interest income related to additional investments in unconsolidated entities during 2019 and 2018. We made investments in unconsolidated entities totaling approximately $41.5 million during 2018 and $18.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Contingent interest income. There was minimal contingent interest income recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The contingent interest income recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was realized upon redemption of the Lake Forest MRB and sale of the underlying property.

 

Other interest income. Other interest income is comprised primarily of interest income on property loans held by us. The decrease in other interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to approximately $4.6 million of interest income realized on the redemption of the Lake Forest property loans during 2018 that did not recur in 2019. In addition, we experienced a decrease of approximately $388,000 related to redemptions of the Vantage at New Braunfels, LLC and Vantage at Brooks, LLC property loans in December 2018 and January 2019, respectively.

Other income. Other income was minimal for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The other income reported for the three months ended September 30, 2018 related to early redemption of the Lake Forest MRB in September 2018.

There was no gain on sale reported for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Discussion of the Total Revenues and Other Income for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

Property revenues.  The decrease in property revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 is due primarily to a decrease of approximately $1.2 million from the sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018.

Investment income.  The decrease in investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the following factors:

 

Decreases of approximately $1.6 million and $1.1 million related to decreasing MRB volume and interest rates, respectively. See discussion of volume and interest rate changes in the Mortgage Revenue Bond Investments segment previously included in Item 2; and

 

An increase of approximately $1.4 million in investment interest income related to additional investments in unconsolidated entities during 2019 and 2018. We made investments in unconsolidated entities totaling approximately $41.5 million during 2018 and $18.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Contingent interest income. The contingent interest income recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was predominantly realized upon redemption of the Vantage at Brooks, LLC property loan in January 2019. The contingent interest income recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was realized upon redemption of the Lake Forest MRB and sale of the underlying property in September 2018.

 

Other interest income. Other interest income is comprised primarily of interest income on property loans held by us. The decrease in other interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to approximately $4.6 million of interest income realized on redemption of the Lake Forest property loans in September 2018 that did not recur in 2019, a decrease of approximately $1.2 million related to redemptions of the Vantage at New Braunfels, LLC and Vantage at Brooks, LLC property loans in December 2018 and January 2019, respectively, and non-recurring interest income of approximately $354,000 recognized in 2018. The remaining decrease was due to less interest recognized on cash balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

54


 

Other income. Other income was minimal for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Other income recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 consists primarily of approximately $1.5 million additional income realized upon early redemption of the Lake Forest MRB in September 2018.

Discussion of the Total Expenses for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Real estate operating expenses.  Real estate operating expenses are related to MF Properties and are comprised principally of real estate taxes, property insurance, utilities, property management fees, repairs and maintenance, and salaries and related employee expenses of on-site employees. The decrease in real estate operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to a decrease of approximately $202,000 related to the sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018.

 

Impairment of securities. There was no impairment of securities recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The impairment of securities for the three months ended September 30, 2018 related to decreases in the fair value of the PHC Certificates.

 

Impairment charge on real estate assets.  The impairment charge on real estate assets for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 related to the land held for development in Gardner, KS.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense.  Depreciation relates entirely to the MF Properties.  Amortization consists of in-place lease intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition-method of accounting for the acquisition of MF Properties.  The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $76,000 at the 50/50 related to furniture & fixtures that became fully depreciated in July 2019.

 

Interest expense. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the following factors:

 

A decrease of approximately $400,000 due to lower average principal outstanding;

 

An increase of approximately $19,000 due to an increase in effective interest rates of the debt financing portfolio;

 

An increase of approximately $160,000 related to fair value adjustments to interest rate derivatives, net of cash paid; and

 

An increase of approximately $336,000 in amortization of deferred financing costs.

 

General and administrative expenses.  The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to an increase of approximately $2.6 million in restricted unit compensation expense. Upon the closing of the acquisition by Greystone of AFCA 2 on September 10, 2019, all outstanding restricted

55


 

units vested and all previously unrecognized compensation expense was recognized. In addition, there was an increase of approximately $530,000 in professional fees due primarily to lower than usual consulting expenses in the third quarter of 2018.

Discussion of the Total Expenses for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Real estate operating expenses.  The decrease in real estate operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to a decrease of approximately $589,000 related to the sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018. In addition, there was decrease of approximately $188,000 at the Suites on Paseo MF Property due to utility expense adjustments in 2019, and one-time costs in 2018 that did not recur in 2019.

 

Impairment of securities. There was no impairment of securities recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The impairment of securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to decreases in the fair value of the PHC Certificates.

 

Impairment charge on real estate assets.  The impairment charge on real estate assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 related to the land held for development in Gardner, KS.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense. The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due primarily to a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $267,000 related to the sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018.

 

Interest expense. The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was due to the following factors:

 

A decrease of approximately $1.4 million due to lower average principal outstanding;

 

An increase of approximately $710,000 due to an increase in effective interest rates of the debt financing portfolio;

 

An increase of approximately $1.5 million related to fair value adjustments to interest rate derivatives, net of cash paid; and

 

An increase of approximately $172,000 in amortization of deferred financing costs.

General and administrative expenses.  The increase in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to an increase of approximately $2.3 million in restricted units compensation expense upon the closing of the acquisition by Greystone of AFCA 2.

Discussion of the Income Tax Expense for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

 

A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, the Greens Hold Co, is a corporation subject to federal and state income tax. The Greens Hold Co owns controlling equity interests in certain MF Properties. The Greens Hold Co generated minimal taxable income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. The income tax benefit recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to tax adjustments upon filing the Greens Hold Co tax returns during 2018. The gain on sale of the Jade Park MF Property in September 2018 did not generate taxable income as it was not owned by the Greens Hold Co.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our short-term liquidity requirements over the next 12 months will be primarily for distribution payments, operational expenses, equity investment commitments, debt servicing (principal and/or interest payments) and maturities of debt financings and mortgages payable. We expect to meet these liquidity requirements primarily using cash on hand and operating cash flows from our investments and MF Properties. We expect to refinance our debt financings and mortgages payable maturing within the next 12 months with the same or similar lenders prior to maturity.

Our long-term liquidity requirements will be primarily for maturities of debt financings and mortgages payable, additional investments in MRBs, and additional investments in unconsolidated entities. We expect to meet these liquidity requirements primarily through refinancing of maturing debt financings with the same or similar lenders, principal and interest proceeds from investments in MRBs and PHCs, proceeds from asset sales and redemptions, and the issuance of additional BUCs and Series A Preferred Units.  

56


 

Sources of Liquidity

The Partnership’s principal sources of liquidity consist of:

 

Operating cash flows from investments in MRBs, PHCs, property loans and investments in unconsolidated entities;

 

Net operating cash flows from MF Properties;

 

Unsecured lines of credit;

 

Proceeds from increasing leverage of debt financings;

 

Issuances of BUCs and Series A Preferred Units; and

 

Proceeds from the sale of assets.

Operating Cash Flows from Investments

Cash flows from operations are primarily comprised of regular interest payments received on our MRBs, PHC Certificates and property loans that provide consistent cash receipts throughout the year.  The Partnership also receives distributions from investments in unconsolidated entities if, and when, cash is available for distribution to the underlying investees. Receipt of cash from our investments in MRBs, property loans and investments in unconsolidated entities is dependent upon the generation of net cash flows at multifamily properties that underlie our investments. These underlying properties are subject to risks usually associated with direct investments in multifamily real estate, which include (but are not limited to) reduced occupancy, tenant defaults, falling rental rates, and increasing operating expenses. Receipt of cash from our PHC Certificates is payable from annual appropriations to be made to the public housing authorities by HUD under HUD’s Capital Fund Program. There is risk that annual appropriations will be reduced, delayed or eliminated, which may make the PHC Certificates unable to pay principal and interest.

Net Operating Cash Flows from MF Properties

Cash flows generated by MF Properties, net of operating expenses and mortgage service payments, are considered unrestricted for use by the Partnership. The MF properties are subject to risks usually associated with direct investments in multifamily real estate, which include (but are not limited to) reduced occupancy, tenant defaults, falling rental rates, and increasing operating expenses.  

Unsecured Lines of Credit

We maintain two unsecured lines of credit with a financial institution. Our unsecured operating line of credit allows for the advance of up to $10.0 million to be used for general operations. We are required to make repayments of the principal to reduce the outstanding principal balance on the operating line to zero for fifteen consecutive days during each calendar quarter. We fulfilled this requirement during the quarter ended September 30, 2019.  In addition, we have fulfilled this requirement for the fourth quarter of 2019. In July 2019, we extended the maturity of the unsecured operating line of credit to June 2021.

Our unsecured non-operating line of credit allows for the advance of up to $50.0 million and may be utilized for the purchase of multifamily real estate and taxable or tax-exempt MRBs. Advances on the unsecured non-operating line of credit are due on the 270th day following the advance date, but may be extended for up to an additional 270 days by making certain payments. The unsecured non-operating line of credit contains a covenant, among others, that the Partnership’s ratio of the lender’s senior debt will not exceed a specified percentage of the market value of the Partnership’s assets, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Partnership was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2019. We anticipate paying off the balances on our unsecured non-operating line of credit by entering into fixed-rate or variable-rate debt financing arrangements, to be secured with the previously acquired MRBs or multifamily real estate. We had approximately $36.8 million available on the unsecured non-operating line of credit as of September 30, 2019. In July 2019, we extended the maturity of the unsecured non-operating line of credit to June 2021.

Proceeds from Increasing Leverage of Debt Financings

In certain circumstances, the Partnership may have debt financings that have a relatively low leverage when comparing the outstanding debt principal to the value of the related securitized assets. This can occur due to either principal paydowns on the debt financings or increasing value of the securitized assets. In such cases, the Partnership may elect to refinance the existing debt financings to increase leverage and obtain additional cash proceeds from increases in the outstanding principal balances.

57


 

Issuances of BUCs and Series A Preferred Units

As of September 30, 2019, we had an effective Registration Statement on file with the SEC to issue up to $225.0 million of BUCs. From time to time, we may issue BUCs under this Registration Statement to raise funds to invest in additional MRBs and unconsolidated entities, fund the repayment of debt financing maturities or for other general purposes. The Partnership had approximately $222.0 million of BUCs available to be issued under the Registration Statement as of September 30, 2019.  This Registration Statement expires in November 2019, and the Partnership expects to file a new shelf registration statement with the SEC prior to the expiration of the current Registration Statement, which will allow the Partnership to issue BUCs thereunder for an additional three-year period.

The Partnership is authorized to issue Series A Preferred Units under the Amended and Restated LP Agreement. As of September 30, 2019, we had issued 9,450,000 Series A Preferred Units for gross proceeds of approximately $94.5 million to five financial institutions. The Series A Preferred Units were issued in a private placement that was terminated as of October 25, 2017.  The Partnership did not issue any Series A Preferred Units during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 or the year ended December 31, 2018. The Partnership may conduct additional private offerings of Series A Preferred Units in the future to supplement its cash flow needs.

Proceeds from the Sale of Assets

We may, from time to time, sell our investments in MRBs, PHCs, investments in unconsolidated entities and MF Properties on a basis consistent with the Partnership’s strategic plans. Our ability to sell such investments on favorable terms is dependent upon a number of factors including (but not limited to) the availability of credit to potential buyers to purchase these investments at prices we consider acceptable. In addition, potential adverse changes to general market and economic conditions could negatively impact our future ability to sell our investments.

In September 2019, our investment in Vantage at Panama City Beach was liquidated upon the sale of the property. In total, we received approximately $22.7 million upon sale, which consists of the return of our initial capital contributions, investment income and gain on sale.

Uses of Liquidity

Our principal uses of liquidity consist of:

 

General, administrative and operating expenses;

 

Distributions paid to holders of Series A Preferred Units and BUCs;

 

Investments in additional MRBs, tax-exempt investments, other investments and unconsolidated entities;

 

Debt service on debt financings and mortgages payable; and

 

Other contractual obligations of the Partnership.

General, Administrative and Operating Expenses

We use cash for general and administrative expenses of the Partnership’s operations.  For additional details, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and the section captioned “Cash Flows from Operating Activities” in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Distributions Paid to Holders of Series A Preferred Units and BUCs

Distributions to the holders of Series A Preferred Units, if declared by the General Partner, are paid quarterly at an annual fixed rate of 3.0%.  The Series A Preferred Units are non-cumulative, non-voting and non-convertible.  

We have paid total annual distributions of $0.50 per BUC, payable quarterly at $0.125 per BUC, during the year ended December 31, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Distributions to the BUC holders may increase or decrease at the determination of the General Partner based on its determination of cash available for distribution and other factors deemed relevant by the General Partner.

Investments in Additional MRBs, Tax Exempt Investments, Other Investments and Unconsolidated Entities

Our overall strategy is to continue to increase our investment in multifamily properties through either the acquisition of MRBs, tax exempt investments, other investments or equity investments in both existing and new markets. We evaluate investment opportunities based on (but not limited to) our market outlook, including general economic conditions, development opportunities and long-term growth potential. Our ability to make future investments is dependent upon identifying suitable acquisition and development opportunities, access to long-term liquidity sources, and the availability of investment capital.

Debt Service on Debt Financings and Mortgages Payable

Our debt financing arrangements consist of various secured financing transactions to leverage our portfolio of MRBs and PHC Certificates. The financing arrangements generally involve the securitization of MRBs and PHC Certificates into trusts whereby we retain beneficial interests in the trusts that provide certain rights to the underlying investment assets. The senior beneficial interests are sold to unaffiliated parties with the residual interests retained by the Partnership. The senior beneficial interests require periodic interest payments that may be fixed or variable, depending on the terms of the arrangement, and scheduled principal payments. The Partnership is required to fund any shortfall in principal and interest payable to the senior beneficial interests. We anticipate that cash flows from the securitized assets will fund normal, recurring principal and interest payments to the senior beneficial interests.

Prior to 2019, all our debt financing arrangements, excluding TEBS Financings, were with Deutsche Bank. During 2019, we have strategically diversified our lending relationships to reduce our exposure to Deutsche Bank. We closed on a new Term TOB trust financing structure with Morgan Stanley in May 2019 and new TOB trust financing structures with Mizuho in the third quarter of 2019. The addition of these two investment banking relationships will further diversify our access to debt financing arrangements.

We actively manage both our fixed and variable rate debt financings. The following table summarizes our fixed and variable rate debt financings as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

As disclosed in Note 15 of the condensed consolidated financial statements, we refinanced the M24 and M33 TEBS Financings from variable to fixed in July 2019, which has resulted in an increase in the percentage of fixed rate debt financing. This increase was somewhat offset by eight new variable rate TOB Trusts with Mizuho in the third quarter of 2019.

Our mortgages payable and other secured financing arrangements are used to leverage our MF Properties. The mortgages and other secured financings are entered into with financial institutions and are secured by security interests in the MF Properties. The mortgages and other secured financings bear interest that may be fixed or variable, depending on the terms of the arrangement, and include scheduled principal payments. We anticipate that cash flows from the secured MF properties will be sufficient to pay all normal, recurring principal and interest payments.

We anticipate refinancing all debt financings and mortgage payable arrangements maturing in the next twelve months with similar arrangements with terms of one year or more. We typically refinance these arrangements with existing lenders, assuming the terms are acceptable to the Partnership, or with similar lending providers. We may also explore other financing options with Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, other investment banks or other lending institutions.  

Other Contractual Obligations

We are subject to various guarantee obligations in the normal course of business, and, in most cases, do not anticipate these obligations to result in significant cash payments.

Leverage Ratio

We utilize leverage to enhance rates of return to our Unitholders. We use target ratios for each type of financing obligation utilized by us to manage an overall leverage constraint, established by the Board of Managers (the “Board”) of Greystone Manager, which is the general partner of the Partnership’s General Partner. The leverage utilized is dependent upon several factors, including, but not limited to, the assets being leveraged, the leverage program utilized, constraints of market collateral calls and the liquidity and marketability of the underlying collateral of the asset being leveraged. We define our leverage ratio as total outstanding debt divided by total assets using cost adjusted for paydowns for MRBs, PHC Certificates, property loans, and taxable MRBs, and initial cost for deferred financing costs and MF Properties. As of September 30, 2019, our overall leverage ratio was approximately 61%.  

Cash Flows

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we generated cash of $8.1 million, which was the net result of $12.8 million provided by operating activities, $13.9 million provided by investing activities, and $18.6 million used in financing activities.

 

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $12.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $18.0 million generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease between periods was primarily due to a decrease of $7.2 million in net income.

 

Cash provided by investing activities totaled $13.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to cash provided of $7.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The change between periods was predominantly due to an increase of $20.2 million received on the sale of an investment in an unconsolidated entity, offset by a decrease of $13.5 million received on the sale of an MF Property. The remaining difference was due to roughly offsetting cash flows from our various investments in MRBs, PHCs, property loans and contributions to unconsolidated entities.

 

Cash used in financing activities totaled $18.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to cash used of $71.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The change between periods was predominantly due to an increase of $47.2 million in net proceeds from debt financing and a decrease of $7.5 million in principal payments on mortgages payable.

We believe our cash balance and cash provided by the sources discussed herein will be sufficient to pay, or refinance, our debt obligations and to meet our liquidity needs over the next 12 months.

 

Cash Available for Distribution

 

The Partnership believes that Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”) provides relevant information about the Partnership’s operations and is necessary, along with net income, for understanding its operating results.  To calculate CAD, the Partnership begins with net income and adds back non-cash expenses consisting of depreciation expense, amortization expense related to deferred financing costs, amortization of premiums and discounts, non-cash interest rate derivative expense or income, provision for loan losses, impairments on MRBs, PHC Certificates, real estate assets and property loans, deferred income taxes and RUA compensation expense, to the Partnership’s net income as computed in accordance with GAAP. The Partnership also deducts Tier 2 income (see Note 3 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements) distributable to the General Partner as defined in the Amended and Restated LP Agreement and Series A Preferred Unit distributions and accretion.  Net income is the GAAP measure most comparable to CAD. There is no generally accepted methodology for computing CAD, and the Partnership’s computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by other companies.  Although the Partnership considers CAD to be a useful measure of the Partnership’s operating performance, CAD is a non-GAAP measure that should not be considered as an alternative to net income that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other measures of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

As described in Note 3 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements, Net Interest Income representing contingent interest and Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent interest (Tier 2 income) will be distributed 75% to the limited partners and BUC holders, as a class, and 25% to the General Partner. This adjustment represents the 25% of Tier 2 income due to the General Partner.  

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, Tier 2 income consisted of $10.5 million gain on sale related to the Partnership’s investment in Vantage at Panama City Beach. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, Tier 2 income consisted of $4.2 million of contingent interest from Lake Forest and a $4.1 million gain on sale of the Jade Park MF Property.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, Tier 2 income consisted of $3.0 million of contingent interest realized on redemption of the Vantage at Brooks, LLC property loan and $10.5 million gain on sale related to the Partnership’s investment in Vantage at Panama City Beach. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Tier 2 income consisted of $4.2 million of contingent interest from Lake Forest and a $4.1 million gain on sale of the Jade Park MF Property. 

 

There was no non-recurring CAD per BUC earned by the Partnership during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 we held MRBs that are collateralized by Residential Properties and one commercial property.  The Residential Properties and commercial property are owned by entities that are not controlled by us.  We have no equity interest in these entities and do not guarantee any obligations of these entities.  

The Partnership has entered into various commitments and guarantees. For additional discussions related to commitments and guarantees, see Note 18 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

We do not have any relationships or transactions with persons or entities that derive benefits from their non-independent relationships with us or our related parties, other than those disclosed in Note 21 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations

 

As discussed herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, the debt obligation amounts maturing in 2019 and 2020 consist of the principal paid on lines of credit, the TEBS Financings with Freddie Mac, various TOB, Term TOB and Term A/B debt financings with Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, and Mizuho and payments on the MF Property mortgages payable and other secured financing.  Our strategic objective is to leverage our MRB portfolio utilizing long-term securitization financings either with Freddie Mac through its TEBS program or with other lenders with trust securitizations similar to the TOB, Term TOB or Term A/B Trust programs with Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, and Mizuho.  This strategy allows us to better match the duration of our assets and liabilities and to better manage the spread between our assets and liabilities.

 

The Partnership’s contractual obligations presented in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which is incorporated by reference herein, have only changed pursuant to the executed contracts during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as disclosed herein.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

For a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements that will be adopted in future periods, see Note 2 to the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in market risk, except as discussed below, from the information provided under “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Mortgage Revenue Bonds and PHC Certificate Sensitivity Analysis

A third-party pricing service is used to value our MRBs. The pricing service uses a discounted cash flow and yield to maturity or call analysis which encompasses judgment in its application.  The key assumption in the yield to maturity or call analysis is the range of effective yields of the individual MRBs.  The effective yield analysis for each MRB considers the current market yield on similar MRBs, specific terms of the MRB, and various characteristics of the underlying property serving as collateral for the MRB such as debt service coverage ratio, loan to value, and other characteristics.  

We value the PHC Certificates based upon prices obtained from a third-party pricing service, which are indicative of market prices. There is no active trading market for the PHC Certificates. The valuation methodology of our third-party pricing service incorporates commonly used market pricing methods. It considers the underlying characteristics of each PHC Certificate as well as other quantitative and qualitative characteristics including, but not limited to, market interest rates, security ratings from rating agencies, the impact of potential political and regulatory change, and other inputs. The fair value estimate by the third-party pricing service encompasses the use of judgment in its application.

We completed a sensitivity analysis which is hypothetical and is as of a specific point in time.  The results of the sensitivity analysis may not be indicative of actual changes in fair value and should be used with caution. The table below summarizes the sensitivity analysis metrics related to the investments in the MRBs and PHC Certificates as of September 30, 2019:

Summary of Interest Rates on Borrowings and Interest Rate Cap Agreements

As of September 30, 2019, the total costs of borrowing by investment type were as follows:

 

The unsecured LOCs have variable interest rates ranging between 4.6% and 5.3%;

 

The M31 TEBS facility has a variable interest rate of 3.0%;

 

The M24, M33 and M45 TEBS facilities have fixed interest rates ranging from 3.1% and 3.8%;

 

The Term TOB Trusts securitized by MRBs have fixed interest rates that range between 3.5% and 4.0%;

 

The Term A/B Trusts securitized by MRBs have fixed interest rates of 4.5%;

 

The TOB Trusts securitized by MRBs and PHC Certificates have variable interest rates that range between 2.8% and 3.3%; and

 

The mortgages payable have fixed and variable interest rates that range between 4.7% and 5.0%.

 

We enter into interest rate cap agreements to mitigate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on variable-rate financing facilities. The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Partnership’s interest rate cap agreements as of September 30, 2019:

The above interest rate sensitivity table (“Table”) represents the change in interest income from investments, net of interest on debt and settlement payments on interest rate derivatives over the next twelve months, assuming an immediate parallel shift in the LIBOR yield curve, a shift in the SIMFA yield curve based on its average historical relationship to the LIBOR yield curve, and the resulting implied forward rates are realized as a component of this shift in the curve.  Assumptions include anticipated interest rates, relationships between interest rate indices and outstanding investments, liabilities and interest rate derivative positions.  

No assurance can be made that the assumptions included in the Table presented herein will occur or that other events will not occur that will affect the outcomes of the analysis.  Furthermore, the results included in the Table assume the Partnership does not act to change its sensitivity to the movement in interest rates.  

As the above information incorporates only those material positions or exposures that existed as of September 30, 2019, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. The ultimate economic impact of these market risks will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our risk mitigating strategies at that time and the overall business and economic environment.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.  The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the  Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s current disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Partnership’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.  The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that there were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Partnership’s most recent fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
