5 MAXUS REAL PROPERTY INVESTORS-FOUR, L.P. (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004 AND MAY 31, 2003 (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Refer to the financial statements of Maxus Real Property Investors - Four, L.P., formerly known as Nooney Real Property Investors - Four, L.P. (the "Partnership" or the "Registrant"), for the year ended November 30, 2003, which are contained in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, for a description of the accounting policies which have been continued without change. Also, refer to the footnotes to those statements for additional details of the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations. The details in those notes have not changed except as a result of normal transactions in the interim. In the opinion of the general partner, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at May 31, 2004 and for all periods presented have been made. The results for the periods ended May 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. (a) Description of Business The Partnership is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Missouri on February 9, 1982. The Partnership was organized to invest primarily in income-producing real properties such as shopping centers, office buildings and other commercial properties, apartment buildings, warehouses, and light industrial properties. The Partnership's portfolio is comprised of a 402-unit apartment building located in West St. Louis County, Missouri (Woodhollow Apartments). (b) Basis of Accounting The financial statements include only those assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the partners which relate to the business of Maxus Real Property Investors-Four, L.P. The statements do not include assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses attributable to the partners' individual activities. No provision has been made for federal and state income taxes since these taxes are the responsibility of the partners. (2) Repurchase of Partnership Interests On November 25, 2003, the Partnership commenced an odd-lot offer to purchase up to 3,887 of the Partnership's limited partnership units from limited partners holding 15 units or fewer (the "Offer"). The Offer expired on December 26, 2003. In connection with the Offer, the Partnership redeemed 95 limited partnership units of the Partnership at $450 per unit. The Partnership also redeemed an additional 5 units from a previous odd-lot offer, which had been pending the receipt of complete documentation. As a result, as of June 15, 2004, there are 11,361 outstanding limited partnership units. On June 14, 2004, the Partnership commenced an odd-lot offer to purchase up to 4,874 of the Partnership's limited partnership units from limited partners holding 25 units or fewer (the "June Offer") at $507 per unit. The June Offer expires on July 16, 2004 unless extended. 6 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION This 10-QSB contains forward-looking information (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involves risk and uncertainty, including trends in the real estate investment market, general market conditions, projected leasing and sales, and future prospects for the Partnership. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by such statements. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Refer to the Financial Statements of the Partnership for the year ended November 30, 2003, which are contained in the Partnership's Annual Report in Form 10-KSB, for a description of the accounting policies, which have been continued without change, unless otherwise noted herein. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to revenue recognition for leases, treatment of capital expenditures, depreciable lives of investment property, capital expenditures and the valuation of investment property. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. Revenue Recognition The Partnership leases its property pursuant to operating leases with terms generally of six or twelve months. Rental income is recognized when received; this method approximates recognition using the straight-line method over the related lease term. Investment Property Useful Lives The Partnership is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of its property for the purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual basis with respect to the property. These assessments have a direct impact on the Partnership's net income. Investment property is depreciated over its estimated useful life of 30 years using the straight-line method. Furnishings and appliances are depreciated over periods ranging from 5 to 7 years using the straight-line method. Capital Expenditures For reporting purposes, the Partnership capitalizes all carpet, vinyl, appliance, and HVAC replacements. The Partnership expenses all other expenditures that total less than $10,000. Expenditures over $10,000 and expenditures related to contracts over $10,000 are evaluated individually for capitalization. Impairment of Investment Property Values The Partnership is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its investment property. Management's estimates of impairment in the value of the investment property have a direct impact on the Partnership's net income. The Partnership follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". The Partnership assesses the carrying value of its long-lived asset whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the underlying asset may not be recoverable. Certain factors that may occur and indicate that an impairment exists include, but are not limited to: significant underperformance relative to projected future operating results; significant changes in the manner of the use of the asset; and significant adverse industry or market economic trends. If the carrying value of the property may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, management measures the impairment based on projected discounted cash flows using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the property, compared to the property's current carrying value. 7 Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash as of May 31, 2004 was $401,000, a decrease of $250,000 from November 30, 2003. Cash provided from operating activities for the six months ended May 31, 2004 was $297,000, a decrease of $108,000 from the same period in 2003. An accounts payable for a contract related to the fire damage of $262,000 is offset by an accounts receivable for estimated insurance proceeds related to the fire damage of $252,000. Investing activities used $276,000 primarily due to a renovation of the clubhouse for $103,000 and pool and deck improvements for $40,000 along with other investments in property improvements including carpet, flooring, HVAC and appliance replacements. Cash used in financing activities was $271,000, comprised primarily of $227,000 of distributions of $10 per limited partner unit, which were paid in each of January 2004 and April 2004. Contractual Obligations The mortgage note payable is secured by Woodhollow Apartments and calls for monthly interest payments of $61,000, with interest fixed at 7.45%. The principal balance is due December 1, 2010. In the event of prepayment by the Partnership, the note requires a substantial prepayment penalty. Management believes the Partnership's current cash position and the property's ability to provide operating cash flow should enable the Partnership to fund anticipated capital expenditures and meet debt obligations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2004, the Partnership's revenues were $684,000 and $1,385,000, respectively. Revenues decreased by $24,000 (3.4%) and $56,000 (3.9%) respectively for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2004 as compared to the same periods ended May 31, 2003. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in vacancy loss of $18,000 and $41,000 for the three and six-month periods ended May 31, 2004, respectively. For the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2004, the Partnership's operating expenses were $491,000 and $995,000, respectively. Expenses decreased by $30,000 (5.8%) for the three-month period ended May 31, 2004 as compared to the same period ended May 31, 2003. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in other expenses of $29,000. Expenses for the six-month period ended May 31, 2004 are comparable to those for the same period ended May 31, 2003. Woodhollow was 88% occupied at May 31, 2004, as compared to 94% as of May 31, 2003. Twenty-two (22) units, or approximately 5% of the property, are vacant due to the fire described below. Based on industry information, the average occupancy of the sub-market Woodhollow competes with is in the low to mid 90% range. Interest rates remain low, which normally increases losses of tenants who move out of apartments when they purchase homes. On April 16, 2004, Woodhollow incurred a fire in one building. The damage was limited to the 22 units in that building. Management estimates that the damages are covered by insurance, less a $10,000 deductible. The insurance policy also covers loss of rents and management is currently in discussions with the insurance company as to the amount of rental loss the partnership will be reimbursed for. Management believes that the repairs will be completed in September 2004, and the units will be available for rental at that time. INFLATION The effects of inflation did not have a material impact upon the Registrant's operations in fiscal 2003 or the six months ended May 31, 2004 and are not expected to materially affect the Registrant's operations in the remainder of 2004. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS The Partnership does not have any "off-balance sheet arrangements" as defined in Item 303 (c) of Regulations S-B promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 8 ITEM 3: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Under the supervision and with the participation of the management of Maxus Capital Corp., including the Partnership's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Partnership has established a system of controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures have been evaluated under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of May 31, 2004. Based on such evaluations, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e)) are effective. There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report.
