See notes to financial statements. 5 THE FIRST CONNECTICUT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of The First Connecticut Capital Corporation (the "Corporation"), formerly known as The First Connecticut Small Business Investment Company, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair representation have been included. Operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation's annual report filed on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 1998. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Corporation is currently licensed in the States of Connecticut and Massachusetts to operate as Mortgage Lender/Broker. The Corporation had net income of $302,000 and a net loss of $5,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. INTEREST INCOME AND OTHER OPERATING INCOME - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ------------------------------------------ Interest and fees on loans increased $26,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 1997. This increase is the result of interest collected on Partnership loans and Loans held for sale. Loan origination fees increased $47,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, as compared with the comparable period of the prior year. This increase was due to an increase in the number and dollar amount of mortgage loans originated and funded by the Corporation. Management attributes the increase to its successful marketing of its knowledge of construction lending, its ability to service loan demand from homebuilders and the favorable general climate for the construction industry. Servicing fees declined by $20,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This decline is due to the continued reduction and liquidation of the portfolio sold under the Loan and Real Property Purchase Agreement dated June 29, 1993 (and amended on October 29, 1993). Servicing fees, generated by this portfolio will continue to decline as the portfolio continues to be liquidated in accordance with such Loan and Real Property Purchase Agreement. However, management feels this decline will be off set by the increase in the servicing fees earned on its short-term construction and remodeling mortgages loans and the Limited Partnership portfolios. 6 THE FIRST CONNECTICUT CAPITAL CORPORATION OTHER OPERATING EXPENSE - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----------------------- Total other operating expenses declined $56,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the comparable period of the prior year. This change is due to a decrease in director's fees and the employees pension plan, and is offset by the increase in professional fees and the issuance of Directors and Officers Liability insurance policy. This change is also due to a non-recurring loss on a note receivable received by the Corporation in satisfaction of the termination of an Asset Management and Loan Servicing Agreement. Management believes that significant further reduction of other operating expenses will be difficult to achieve, based on the already extensive reductions that have already been effected. RECOVERY OF INVESTMENT LOSSES - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----------------------------- The Corporation recorded a recovery of investment losses for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 of $243,000 and $49,000, respectively. On January 26, 1999 an existing portfolio loan dated July 31, 1986 in the original amount of $500,000 was recast. The Modification and Extension Agreement includes additional collateral in the form of a first mortgage position on adjacent real estate as well as an assignment of lease from the tenant occupying this additional parcel. The additional collateral further solidifies the Corporation's original security and eliminates the need for a reserve on this loan. Therefore, a recovery of $183,000 was recorded during the quarter ended December 31, 1998 reflecting the reversal of the reserve on this loan. The Corporation also recorded recoveries of $60,000 and $49,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively resulting from the reversal of excess reserves on loans liquidated during the period. PLAN OF OPERATION - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----------------- The Corporation is engaged in the mortgage banking business, which involves the origination, purchase, sale and servicing of mortgage loans secured by residential properties and other real estate. These loans are predominately secured by first mortgage liens on residential properties and are sold to qualified investors, with origination and servicing fees retained by the Corporation. The Corporation's revenues consist of loan servicing fees, loan origination fees, interest on mortgage loans held prior to sale and mortgage servicing rights. Since January 1996, the Corporation has expanded its Portfolio Loan Program to include short-term mortgages for construction, remodeling and additions, and such short-term mortgages presently constitute and are expected to continue to constitute a significant portion of the Corporation's loan portfolio. It is anticipated that based on the favorable climate in the construction industry in Connecticut, the Corporation will continue to increase its level of activities in these areas, thus generating additional servicing fees and interest income. Management is cognizant that home construction is seasonal in nature, and loan originations, as expected, were lower in the third quarter. The level of activity is expected to improve with the approach of the spring market. 7 THE FIRST CONNECTICUT CAPITAL CORPORATION As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation had approximately $276,000 of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and approximately $1.631 million of Stockholders' Equity. The Corporation currently anticipates that during the fiscal year ending March 31, 1999, its principal financing needs will consist of funding its mortgage loans held for sale and the ongoing net cost of mortgage loan originations and cash flow used in operations. Future cash flow requirements will depend primarily on the level of the Corporation's activities in originating and selling mortgage loans, as well as cash flow required by its operations. If construction loan demand continues to increase, the Corporation will require additional cash to service those requirements. The Corporation continues to investigate and pursue alternative and supplementary methods to finance its operations and to support this anticipated growth. Management is currently negotiating a credit facility up to $1,000,000 with a major regional bank, which will greatly assist the Corporation in meeting its loan demand. Hopefully, this is the first step in establishing a conventional banking relationship that will continue to grow and thus enabling the Corporation to increase its volume of business. The Corporation believes that cash on hand, internally generated funds and the new credit facility will be sufficient to meet its corporate, general and administrative working capital and other cash requirements during the fiscal year ending March 31, 1999. LIMITED PARTNERSHIP - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ------------------- On March 21, 1997, the Corporation formed a Limited Partnership known as First Connecticut Capital Mortgage Fund A, Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), of which the Corporation is the general partner. The Partnership sells units to investors, thus providing a significant portion of the Corporation's short-term Portfolio Loan Program. The limited partners must be investors who qualify as "Accredited Investors" as defined in Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The short-term Portfolio Loan Program generates income to the Corporation by enabling the Corporation to fund loans, which bear a greater rate of return than the return paid to the Limited Partners. As of December 31, 1998 the Corporation sold 71 units, of which 18 units were sold during the quarter ended December 31, 1998, generating $900,000 of funds for lending activities during the quarter ended December 31,1998. 8 THE FIRST CONNECTICUT CAPITAL CORPORATION PART II. OTHER INFORMATION YEAR 2000 READINESS - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ------------------- The Corporation has taken action to understand the nature and extent of the work required to make its computer-based systems that interface with vendors, customers and others ready for the Year 2000. The Corporation has received assurance from vendors that its software is year 2000 compliant and year 2000 issues are not expected to have a material impact on the Corporations' future condition or operations. The Corporations contingency plan involves the use of a manual system that runs dual with the automated system and replacement or repair of the problem software. As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation has expensed approximately $2,000 on costs with Year 2000 issues, and the Corporation expects to incur additional expenses of $3,000 to $5,000 in 1999. ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ------------------------------ The Corporation held an Annual Meeting of Stockholders on October 20, 1998. The meeting was held to elect six Directors for the ensuing year, ratify the appointment of the firm of Deloitte & Touche, LLP as auditors of the Corporation and to conduct any other business that may properly come before the meeting. At the meeting, the Shareholders elected four new Directors, Jan E. Cohen, Thomas D'Addario, Ronald Farrell and Michael L. Goldman, who will serve with David Engelson and Lawrence R. Yurdin, who have been Directors since 1960 and 1986, respectively. Shareholders with an aggregate of 915,131 shares, representing 78% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of the Corporation as of August 24, 1998, voted at the meeting. The Corporation feels that this newly elected board possesses expertise and backgrounds in fields related to the Corporation's primary business, which will be instrumental in assisting the Corporation to meet the challenges of increasing its demand for loans and securing additional sources of funding.
