Nine months ended September 30, Management Real Estate Other(1) Total Company - ------------------------------- ---------- ----------- ----- ------------- Revenues: 2001 $32,189 $64,046 $4,661 $100,896 2000 12,794 66,301 4,721 83,816 Operating and interest expenses(4) (excluding depreciation, amortization and provision for income taxes): 2001 $17,257 $24,269 $3,519 $45,045 2000 5,439 29,319 3,629 38,387 Income from equity investments: 2001 $281 $2,954 - $3,235 2000 1,804 - 1,804 Net operating income(2)(3)(4): 2001 $10,215 $31,973 $1,142 $43,330 2000 7,099 24,728 1,092 32,919 Long-lived assets: September 30, 2001 $110,384 $759,000 $6,137 $875,521 December 31, 2000 105,504 761,028 7,136 873,668 Total assets: September 30, 2001 $122,629 $789,200 $8,067 $919,896 December 31, 2000 111,375 784,628 8,239 904,242
(1) Primarily consists of the Company's hotel operations. (2) Excludes amortization of intangibles and goodwill of $8,929 and $3,208 in 2001 and 2000, respectively. (3) Net operating income excludes gains and losses on sales. (4) Excludes the writeoff of an acquired management contract of $38,000 in 2000. Note 7. Gain on Sale of Real Estate Interests: During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company sold nine properties and an equity investment in a real estate partnership for proceeds of $18,557 (including a note for $700) and recognized net gain on sales of $1,227. In July, 2001, the Company sold a property in Arkansas leased to Duff-Norton Company, Inc. ("Duff-Norton") for approximately $9,400. The Company has placed the proceeds of the Duff-Norton sale in an escrow account for the purpose of entering into a Section 1031 noncash exchange which, under the Internal Revenue Code, would allow the Company to acquire like-kind property, and defer a taxable gain until the new property is sold, upon satisfaction of certain conditions. - 11 - W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued) (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts) Note 8. Accounting Pronouncements: In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141 "Business Combinations" and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangibles," which establish accounting and reporting standards for business combinations and certain assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method, establishes specific criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill and requires that unallocated negative goodwill be written off immediately as an extraordinary gain. Use of the pooling-of-interests method for business combinations is no longer permitted. The adoption of SFAS 141 will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. SFAS No. 142 primarily addresses the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and must be adopted at the beginning of a fiscal year. Early adoption and retroactive application of SFAS No. 142 are not permitted in 2001. SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets acquired in business combinations will only be amortized if such assets are capable of being separated or divided and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged or arise from contractual or legal rights, and will be amortized over their useful lives. The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002. With the acquisition of real estate management operations in 2000, the Company allocated a portion of the purchase price to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. In adopting SFAS No. 142, the Company will discontinue amortization of existing goodwill. Based on the current amount of goodwill, amortization of goodwill in 2001 is expected to approximate $3,150. The Company will also be required to evaluate its intangible assets to determine whether a portion of such intangible assets will continue to be amortized. The results of any evaluation of existing intangible assets cannot be determined at this time. In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which addresses the accounting and reporting for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 is effective January 1, 2002 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company. Note 9. Subsequent Event: A. On October 9, 2001, the Company entered into a $2,450 settlement agreement with Harcourt General, Inc., the guarantor of a lease with General Cinema Corporation ("General Cinema") for a property in Burnsville, Minnesota. General Cinema filed a petition of bankruptcy in October 2000, and in March 2001 the bankruptcy court permitted General Cinema to disaffirm the lease in connection with its plan of reorganization. The lease had been scheduled to expire in July 2006. The Company has also entered into an agreement-in-principle to sell the Burnsville property for $2,200. In connection with the proposed sale, the Company has recorded an impairment loss of $763 and has classified the property as an asset held for sale in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. B. The Company is the Advisor to Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated ("CPA(R):15"), a newly-formed CPA(R) REIT. CPA(R):15 will commence a "best efforts" public offering on November 16, 2001, and will attempt to raise up to $400,000 over a two-year period. - 12 - W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (In thousands, except share and per share amounts) The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of September 30, 2001 of W. P. Carey & Co. LLC and its subsidiaries ("WPC") included in this quarterly report and WPC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. This quarterly report contains forward looking statements. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievement of WPC to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations by WPC that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of WPC will be achieved. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Effective June 29, 2000, WPC acquired the real estate management operations of an affiliate. Since that date, WPC is engaged in two reportable operating segments, real estate operations and management services as the Advisor to four affiliated real estate investment trusts (the "CPA(R) REITs"). Accordingly, the results of operations for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are not fully comparable. WPC had net income of $11,237 and $35,628 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared with net income of $11,375 and a net loss of $9,041 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000. Upon acquisition of the management services operation in 2000, WPC incurred a charge of $38,000 in connection with terminating its management contract. Excluding the charge on the termination of the management contract in 2000, an impairment charge of $763 on the writedown of a property in 2001 and gains and losses on sales of real estate interests, income for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods decreased by $448 and increased by $5,453, respectively. The decrease in income for the comparable three-month period was primarily due to an increase in the provision for income taxes and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in lease revenues (rental income and interest income from direct financing leases). These were partially offset by a decrease in interest expense and an increase in income from equity investments. The increase in income for the comparable nine-month period was primarily due to revenue from the management services operations and decreases in interest expense and depreciation, and was partially offset by increases in amortization and general and administrative expenses. Net income from real estate operations increased to $10,397 and $33,200 from $8,381 and $23,976 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase in income for the comparable three-month and nine-month periods was primarily due to decreases in interest expense and depreciation. The decrease in interest expense was attributable to lower average outstanding balances on WPC's $185,000 credit facility and a decrease in interest rates during 2001. WPC's credit facility is indexed to the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and the LIBOR benchmark rate has declined substantially in 2001. As of September 30, 2001, advances outstanding on the credit facility were $98,000. Based on current outstanding balances on the credit facility, a decrease of 1% in the benchmark rate decreases annual interest charges by approximately $1,000. The decrease in depreciation was due to the disposition of the majority interest in the Federal Express Corporation property in Colliersville, Tennessee in December 2000 to an affiliate. Income from real estate operations also reflected an increase in other income for the comparable nine-month periods due to a $2,500 final settlement of a claim against a former lessee, New Valley Corporation, relating to a termination of a lease in 1993. WPC is continuing to seek settlements with other former lessees; however, the timing of such settlements and the amounts that will be received cannot be estimated. As described in Note 8 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, WPC reached a settlement in October 2001 relating to the termination of a lease with General Cinema Corporation for a property in Burnsville, Minnesota. The settlement on the General Cinema property for $2,450 will not be recognized until the fourth quarter. Property expenses in 2001 were affected by noncash charges for (a) the writeoff of $1,321 of straight-line rents as uncollectible in connection with a lease amendment and (b) an increase in the provision for uncollected rents of $1,369. - 13 - W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share amounts) Lease revenues (rental income and interest income from direct financing leases) decreased primarily as a result of the sale of a 60% majority interest in the Federal Express property, and the restructuring of a lease with Livho, Inc., the lessee of the Holiday Inn in Livonia, Michigan. The lease restructuring with Livho, Inc. resulted in a decrease in rental income of $493. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, revenues from the Federal Express lease were $4,246. The remaining 40% interest in the property is now accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, WPC recognizes its share of the net income or loss from the Federal Express investment, but does not record pro rata rents nor depreciation expense for financial statement purposes. The increase in equity income was primarily due to income from investments in the four affiliated CPA(R) REITs which were initially acquired in June 2000, and to a lesser extent, increases in equity income from WPC's ownership interests in four entities that each own real estate net leased to a single tenant. Equity income from the investment in the CPA(R) REITs is included in the results for the management services segment. WPC acquired a 90% interest in a joint venture that has entered into a build-to-suit commitment in Strasbourg, France which will be net leased to Bouygues Telecom S.A., an existing lessee. The expected completion date of the property is November 2001. The lease will have an initial term of nine and a half years and annual rents will be approximately $2,000. During 2000, WPC committed to fund an expansion at the Sprint Spectrum L.P. property in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The Sprint expansion was completed in July 2001, and annual rent from Sprint has increased by approximately $270. The Company also committed to fund a $4,000 expansion of the AT&T property in Bridgeton, Missouri. The expansion is scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter and AT&T's annual rent will increase by $360. In July 2001, the Company sold its property in Forrest City, Arkansas to the lessee, Duff-Norton Company, Inc. Annual rent from the Duff-Norton lease was $1,164. In order to defer the substantial taxable gain from the sale, the sale has been structured as a 1031 like-kind exchange and requires WPC to use the proceeds within a stated period to acquire new properties. In addition, annual rents have decreased by $997 as a result of selling eight properties in 2001. WPC is closely monitoring its real estate investment in the hospitality industry, including its ownership of 780,269 units of the operating partnership of Meristar Hospitality Corporation, a publicly-traded real estate investment trust which is being accounted for under the equity method, and its lease with Livho, Inc. due to current economic trends. At its current distribution rate, Meristar provides annual cash flow to WPC of $1,577. Meristar is currently evaluating whether it will maintain its distribution rate. Net income from WPC's management services operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 was $227 and $1,286, respectively, and is not fully comparable to net income of $2,320 and $3,891 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 as the acquisition of the management services operations occurred June 29, 2000. Results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 include noncash charges for amortization of goodwill and intangible assets of $2,977 and $8,929, respectively, and $2,855 and $3,208, respectively, for the comparable periods ended September 30, 2000. Excluding the charges for amortization, income would have been $3,204 and $10,215 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and $5,175 and $7,099 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000. The provision for income taxes was substantially higher for the periods ended September 30, 2001 due to the increase in income from management services operations. Total revenues earned by the management services operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 were $11,141 and $32,189, respectively, compared with $9,951 and $12,794 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000. Management fee revenues were comprised of transaction fees of $4,336 and $10,087 and asset-based fees and reimbursements of $6,805 and $22,102 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001, respectively. Transaction fees included fees from structuring - 14 - W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share amounts) acquisition and refinancing transactions. The asset-based management income includes fees based on the value of CPA(R) REIT real estate assets under management. A portion of the CPA(R) REIT management fees is based on each CPA(R) REIT meeting specific performance criteria (the "performance fee") and WPC earns this performance fee income only when the performance criteria of each CPA(R) REIT are being achieved. During the second quarter, the performance criteria for Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated ("CPA(R):14") were satisfied for the first time, resulting in WPC's recognition of a performance fee of $3,112 for the period December 1997 through March 31, 2001. WPC had not previously earned performance fees from CPA(R):14. Based on CPA(R):14's current asset base, annual performance fees earned under the advisory agreement are approximately $3,800. CPA(R):14 continues to invest funds from its "best efforts" public offering in net lease real estate. As the real estate asset base of CPA(R):14 continues to increase, the management and performance fees earned under WPC's advisory agreement with CPA(R):14 will increase. CPA(R):14's public offering will terminate on November 15, 2001, and CPA(R):14 will still have funds raised from the offering available for investment. Management currently projects that CPA(R):14's real estate asset base will increase by approximately $250,000 to $1,000,000. Accordingly, asset-based fees from the CPA(R):14 Advisory Agreement are projected to increase substantially as CPA(R):14's asset base increases over the next several years. Additionally, a new CPA(R) REIT, Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated ("CPA(R):15"), has been formed, and a "best efforts" public offering will commence on November 16, 2001. CPA(R):15 will attempt to raise up to $400,000 over the next two years. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to the acquisition of the management services operations. Approximately 93% of the increase in general and administrative costs resulted from personnel-related costs. The portion of personnel costs necessary to administer the CPA(R) REITs is billed back to the REITs and is included in management income. FINANCIAL CONDITION: Management believes that WPC will generate sufficient cash from operations and, if necessary, from the proceeds of debt financings, including its $185,000 line of credit, to meet its short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Cash flows from operations and equity investments of $41,067 for the period ended September 30, 2001 were not sufficient to fund dividends to shareholders of $43,328. Cash flows from operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 are not expected to be representative of cash flows from operations for the full year as both transaction-based and asset-based management revenues are projected to be proportionately higher during the fourth quarter of 2001. In addition, cash from operations was affected by certain compensation-related costs that are paid annually during the second quarter but are accrued for proportionately throughout the year. The difference between cash flow from operations and dividends paid decreased by $1,378 during the current quarter, and the deficit should be narrowed or eliminated during the fourth quarter. Investing activities included using $20,669 for purchases of real estate and additional capital expenditures, including $17,376 used for the construction of the Bouygues Telecom facility, $893 for the Sprint property expansion, $1,408 related to the redevelopments of the former Copeland Beverage Group property in Los Angeles and a property in Broomfield, Colorado and $792 to fund other improvements. The funding commitment at the AT&T property, which is expected to be completed in November 2001, is estimated to amount to $4,000, of which $3,646 has been funded since September 30, 2001. Costs to complete the Bouygues Telecom facility are estimated to be $900. WPC received $17,857 in net cash and a note receivable of $700 in connection with the sales of properties and an equity investment in a property in Carlsbad, California. WPC sold its property in Arkansas leased to Duff-Norton Company, Inc. for $9,400. WPC has placed the proceeds in an escrow account for the purpose of entering into a Section 1031 noncash exchange which, under the Internal Revenue Code, would allow WPC to acquire like-kind property, and defer a taxable gain of approximately $8,900 until the new property is sold, if certain conditions are met. - 15 - W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share amounts) Management continues to evaluate the real estate portfolio and is actively evaluating opportunities to sell smaller properties, as such properties require more intensive asset-management services than larger single-tenant net lease properties. In January 2001, WPC paid an installment of deferred acquisition fees for $520 relating to 1998 and 1999 purchases to WPC's former management company. Deferred acquisition fees are payable over a period of no less than eight years. In March 2001, WPC entered into a revolving credit agreement for a $185,000 line of credit which renewed and extended its original revolving unsecured line of credit. The credit agreement has a three-year term through March 2004. WPC has a one-time right to increase the commitment to up to $225,000. Borrowings on the credit facility were $98,000 as of September 30, 2001. The revolving credit agreement has financial covenants that require WPC to maintain a minimum equity value and to meet or exceed certain operating and coverage ratios. WPC remains in compliance with the financial covenants. In addition to paying dividends to its shareholders of $43,328, WPC increased its outstanding balance of its credit facility by $4,000, paid off three existing mortgages of $10,542 including $9,225 of balloon payments on properties leased to Quebecor, Inc., obtained new limited recourse mortgage financing of $5,000 on one of the Quebecor properties, obtained a limited recourse mortgage loan on the Sprint property and drew $17,706 of construction financing on the Bouygues Telecom build-to-suit project. WPC received proceeds of $3,040 from the issuance of shares primarily through WPC's dividend reinvestment plan, stock purchase plan, and the exercise of options by employees. WPC issued an additional 500,000 shares pursuant to its merger agreement for the management services operations in connection with meeting specified performance criteria. WPC also acquired the remaining minority interest in the CPA(R) Partnerships for $2,811 through the issuance of 151,964 shares. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method, establishes specific criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill and requires that unallocated negative goodwill be written off immediately as an extraordinary gain. Use of the pooling-of-interests method for business combinations is no longer permitted. The adoption of SFAS 141 will not have a material effect on WPC's financial statements. SFAS No. 142 primarily addresses the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and must be adopted at the beginning of a fiscal year. Early adoption and retroactive application of SFAS No. 142 are not permitted in 2001. SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets acquired in business combinations will only be amortized if such assets are capable of being separated or divided and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged or arise from contractual or legal rights, and will be amortized over their useful lives. WPC will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002. With the acquisition of real estate management operations in 2000, WPC allocated a portion of the purchase price to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. In adopting SFAS No. 142, WPC will discontinue amortization of existing goodwill. Based on the current amount of goodwill, amortization of goodwill in 2001 is expected to approximate $3,150. WPC will also be required to evaluate its intangible assets to determine whether a portion of such intangible assets will continue to be amortized. The results of any evaluation of existing intangible assets cannot be determined at this time. In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which addresses the accounting and reporting for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 is effective January 1, 2002 and is not expected to have a significant impact on WPC. - 16 - W. P. CAREY & CO.
