(Unaudited)

1.    CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Dominion and its subsidiaries, including United Dominion Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and Heritage Communities L.P. (the “Heritage OP”), (collectively, “United Dominion”). As of June 30, 2002, there were 74,974,018 units in the Operating Partnership outstanding, of which 68,589,282 units, or 91.5%, were owned by United Dominion and 6,384,736 units, or 8.5%, were owned by non-affiliated limited partners. As of June 30, 2002, there were 5,501,300 units in the Heritage OP outstanding, of which 4,906,867 units, or 89.2%, were owned by United Dominion and 594,433 units, or 10.8%, were owned by non-affiliated limited partners. The consolidated financial statements of United Dominion include the minority interests of the unitholders in the operating partnerships.
 
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes appearing in United Dominion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for the fair presentation of financial position at June 30, 2002 and results of operations for the interim periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a full year.
 
The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates.
 
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

3.    INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
United Dominion adopted SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” as of January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 144 requires, among other things, that the primary assets and liabilities and the results of operations of United Dominion’s real properties which have been sold during 2002, or otherwise qualify as held for disposition (as defined by SFAS No. 144), be classified as discontinued operations and segregated in United Dominion’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Balance Sheets. Properties classified as real estate held for disposition generally represent properties that are under contract for sale and are expected to close within the next twelve months.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion had sold nine communities and one commercial property with a total of 2,366 apartment homes. At June 30, 2002, United Dominion had a portfolio of 5,151 apartment homes with a net book value of $197.5 million and four parcels of land with a net book value of $9.6 million included in real estate held for disposition. The results of operations for these properties are classified on the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the line item entitled “Income from discontinued operations, net of minority interests.” Real estate held for disposition contributed property operating income (property rental income less property operating expenses) of $5.2 million and $10.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and $5.4 million and $10.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001. The assets and liabilities for these properties are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line items entitled “Real estate held for disposition,” “Real estate held for disposition secured debt,” and “Real estate held for disposition other liabilities.”
 
The following is a summary of income from discontinued operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 (dollars in thousands):

(a)
 
As of June 30, 2002, United Dominion had eight interest rate swap agreements associated with commercial bank borrowings with an aggregate notional value of $155 million under which United Dominion pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a variable rate of interest on the notional amounts. The interest rate swaps, which mature over the period from October 2002 to July 2004, effectively change United Dominion’s interest rate exposure on the $155 million of borrowings from a variable rate to a weighted average fixed rate of approximately 6.98%. The weighted average interest rate of the total $82.2 million and $230.2 million in commercial borrowings, after giving effect to swap agreements, was 6.98% and 6.1% at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.
(b)
 
As of June 30, 2002, United Dominion had five interest rate swap agreements associated with borrowings under the term loan with an aggregate notional value of $100 million under which United Dominion pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a variable rate of interest on the notional amounts. The interest rate swaps, which mature in May 2003 and May 2004, effectively change United Dominion’s interest rate exposure on these borrowings from a variable rate to a weighted average fixed rate of approximately 7.53%.
(c)
 
United Dominion has one interest rate swap agreement associated with these unsecured notes with an aggregate notional value of $10 million under which United Dominion pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a variable rate on the notional amount. The interest rate swap agreement, which matures in January 2003, effectively changes United Dominion’s interest rate exposure on the $10 million from a variable rate to a fixed rate of 7.65%.

(e)
 
In June 2002, United Dominion issued $200 million of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due in June 2009. The net proceeds of $198.3 million from the sale were used to reduce outstanding debt under United Dominion’s $375 million unsecured revolving credit facility.

6.    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
United Dominion accounts for its derivative instruments in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 and 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” At June 30, 2002, all of United Dominion’s derivative financial instruments are interest rate swap agreements that are designated as cash flow hedges of debt with variable interest rate features, and are qualifying hedges for financial reporting purposes. For derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings during the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any, is recognized in current earnings during the period of change.
 
The fair value of United Dominion’s derivative instruments is reported on balance sheet at their current fair value. Estimated fair values for interest rate swaps rely on prevailing market interest rates. These fair value amounts should not be viewed in isolation, but rather in relation to the values of the underlying hedged transactions and investments and to the overall reduction in exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates. Each interest rate swap agreement is designated with all or a portion of the principal balance and term of a specific debt obligation. The interest rate swaps involve the periodic exchange of payments over the life of the related agreements. Amounts received or paid on the interest rate swaps are recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment to the related interest expense of the outstanding debt based on the accrual method of accounting. The related amounts payable to and receivable from counterparties are included in other liabilities and other assets, respectively.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion recognized $1.3 million of unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income and a $1.8 thousand loss in net income related to the ineffective portion of our hedging instruments. In addition, United Dominion recognized $13.0 million of derivative financial instrument liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion recognized $1.9 million of net unrealized gains in accumulated other comprehensive income and a $7.1 thousand gain in net income related to the ineffective portion of our hedging instruments.
 
As of June 30, 2002, United Dominion expects to reclassify $12.3 million of net losses on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings (interest expense which, combined with the interest paid on the underlying debt, results in interest expense at the fixed rates shown above) during the next twelve months on the related hedged transactions.
 
7.    EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based upon common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. The dilutive effect of stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents is determined using the treasury stock method based on United Dominion’s average stock price.

The effect of the conversion of the operating partnership units and convertible preferred stock is not dilutive and is therefore not included in the above calculations. If the operating partnership units were converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 would be 7,003,884 and 7,029,393 for 2002 and 7,416,706 and 7,421,208 for 2001, respectively. If the convertible preferred stock was converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 would be 12,307,692 common shares.
 
8.    COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
Total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $26.1 million and $27.6 million for 2002 and $31.5 million and $28.1 million for 2001, respectively. The difference between net income and total comprehensive income is primarily due to the fair value of accounting for interest rate swaps.
 
9.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Commitments
 
United Dominion is committed to completing its real estate currently under development, which has an estimated cost to complete of $11.2 million at June 30, 2002.
 
Contingencies
 
         In May 2001, the shareholders of United Dominion approved the Out-Performance Program (the “Program”) pursuant to which executives and other key officers of United Dominion were given the opportunity to invest in United Dominion by purchasing performance shares (“Out-Performance Partnership Shares” or “OPPSs”) of the Operating Partnership for an initial investment of $1.27 million (the full market value of the OPPSs at inception, as determined by Salomon Smith Barney, Inc.). The Program measures United Dominion’s performance over a 28-month period beginning February 2001. The Program is designed to provide participants with the possibility of substantial returns on their investment if United Dominion’s total return, considering the reinvestment of dividend income as well as share price appreciation, on its common stock during the measurement period exceeds the greater of industry average (defined as the total cumulative return of the Morgan Stanley REIT Index over the same period) or a 30% total return (12% annualized) (the “minimum return”). At the conclusion of the measurement period, if United Dominion’s total return satisfies these criteria, the holders of the OPPSs will receive distributions and allocations of income and loss from the Operating Partnership equal to the distributions and allocations that would be received on the number of interests in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) obtained by: (i) determining the amount by which the cumulative total return of United Dominion’s common stock

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
June 30, 2002
(Unaudited)

over the measurement period exceeds the greater of the cumulative total return of the peer group index (the Morgan Stanley REIT Index) or the minimum return (such being the “excess return”); (ii) multiplying 4% of the excess return by United Dominion’s market capitalization (defined as the average number of shares outstanding over the 28-month period multiplied by the daily closing price of United Dominion’s common stock); and (iii) dividing the number obtained in (ii) by the market value of one share of United Dominion common stock on the valuation date, determined by the volume-weighted average price of the common stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the valuation date, capped at 2% of market capitalization. If, on the valuation date, the cumulative total return of United Dominion’s common stock does not meet the minimum return or the total return of the peer group and there is no excess return, then the holders of the OPPSs will forfeit their entire initial investment of $1.27 million. The OPPSs, unlike United Dominion’s other OP Units, are not convertible into common stock except upon a change of control of United Dominion or upon the death of the participant. It is this feature, combined with the fact that management paid market value for the shares, that we believe makes this program better than previous programs, such as stock options, that were likewise designed to motivate and retain executives and key management. It ensures that management’s goals are perpetually aligned with the shareholders since the OP Units can not be conveyed or disposed of except as outlined previously. Accordingly, the contingently issuable OPPSs are not included in common stock and common stock equivalents in the calculation of earnings per share. Based upon results through June 30, 2002, 1,066,414 OPPSs would have been issued. However, since the ultimate determination of OPPSs to be issued will not occur until June 2003, and the number of OPPSs is determinable only upon future events, the financial statements do not reflect any additional impact for these events.
 
United Dominion and its subsidiaries are engaged in various litigations and have a number of unresolved claims pending. The ultimate liability in respect of such litigations and claims cannot be determined at this time. United Dominion is of the opinion that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, is not likely to be material in relation to the consolidated financial statements of United Dominion.
 
10.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
As of June 30, 2002 the Company has $3.2 million of Notes Receivable from certain Officers and Directors of the Company (original principal balances of $3.6 million), at an interest rate of 7.0% and maturities scheduled from December 2002 to June 2004. The purpose of the loans was for the borrowers to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s 1991 Stock Purchase and Loan Plan. The loans are evidenced by Promissory Notes between the borrowers and the Company and are secured by a pledge of the shares of common stock (289,250 shares with a market value of $4.6 million at June 30, 2002). The Notes require that dividends received on the shares be applied towards payment of the Notes.
 
In addition, the Company entered into a Servicing and Purchase Agreement ( the “Servicing Agreement”) with Sun Trust Bank (the “Bank”) whereby the Company has agreed to act as servicing agent for and to purchase certain loans made by the Bank to Officers and Directors of the Company (the “Borrowers”) to finance the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock. The loans are evidenced by promissory notes ("Notes") between each Borrower and the Bank. The Servicing Agreement provides that the Bank can require the Company to purchase the Notes upon an event of default by the Borrower or the Company under the Servicing Agreement and at certain other times during the term of the Servicing Agreement. The aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Notes as of June 30, 2002 was $12.3 million (original principal balance was $13.2 million), and all of the Notes mature during 2004. Because certain of the Borrowers elected floating rate loans and others elected fixed rate loans, the interest rates on these loans as of June 30, 2002 ranged from 3.64% to 7.68%. Each Borrower entered into a Participation Agreement with the Company which requires that all cash dividends received on the shares (1,122,912 shares at June 30, 2002 with a closing market value of $17.7 million) be applied towards payment of the Note. Based upon the fact that 100% of all cash dividend payments are paid to amortize the Notes and that the Notes are recourse to the Borrowers, the Company believes that its exposure to liability under the Notes is remote.

11.    IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Correction” (“SFAS No. 145”). Statement 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt” (“SFAS No. 4”), required that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt that were included in the determination of net income be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 will require United Dominion to reclassify prior period items into continuing operations, including those recorded in the current period, that do not meet the extraordinary classification. Additionally, future gains and losses related to debt extinguishment may be required to be classified in income from continuing operations. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 become effective in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. United Dominion from time to time incurs such charges and is currently assessing the impact that these statements will have on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of United Dominion.

Business Overview
 
United Dominion is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns, acquires, renovates, develops and manages middle market apartment communities nationwide. From 1996 through 1999, United Dominion acquired other REITs, private portfolios and individual communities to create a national platform. Beginning in 2000, United Dominion started to upgrade the quality of the portfolio and invested in infrastructure and technology to catch up with the rapid growth of its portfolio of assets. In 2002, United Dominion continues to refine its strategy with the goal of enhancing long-term earnings growth on a sustained basis by focusing on operational issues that management believes will produce above-average net operating income growth, steadily increase cash flow per apartment home and strengthen the capital structure of United Dominion. Our strategy includes the following key initiatives:
 
n
 
Own and operate middle market apartment homes across a geographically diverse platform by enhancing our presence in 25 to 30 core markets to enable United Dominion to capitalize on operating efficiencies.
 
n
 
As local market cycles create opportunities, exit current markets where long-term growth is below the national average (the “non-core markets”).
 
n
 
Employ a strict capital allocation discipline throughout all decision-making processes to enhance performance, improve the strength of United Dominion’s balance sheet and increase financial flexibility.
 
n
 
Lead, manage, measure and reward associates based upon performance specifically tied to key financial and investment indicators, including the growth of funds from operations, adjusted funds from operations and the common share price.
 
Over the long-term, these key initiatives will better position United Dominion to serve its customers, increase profitability and capitalize on changes in the marketplace. At June 30, 2002, United Dominion owned 273 communities with 78,253 apartment homes nationwide, including properties held for sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations either through the sale or maturity of existing assets or by the acquisition of additional funds through working capital management. Both the coordination of asset and liability maturities and effective working capital management are important to the maintenance of liquidity. United Dominion’s primary source of liquidity is its cash flow from operations as determined by rental rates, occupancy levels and operating expenses related to its portfolio of apartment homes. United Dominion routinely uses its unsecured bank credit facility to temporarily fund certain investing and financing activities prior to arranging for longer-term financing. During the past several years, proceeds from the sales of real estate have been used for both investing and financing activities.
 
United Dominion expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its net cash provided by operations and borrowings under credit arrangements. We expects to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements such as scheduled debt maturities, the repayment of financing on development activities and potential property acquisitions, through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings, the disposition of properties and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity securities of United Dominion. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will continue to be adequate to meet both operating requirements and the payment of dividends by United Dominion in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short- and long-term. The budgeted expenditures for improvements and renovations of certain properties are expected to be funded from property operations.
 
United Dominion filed a shelf registration statement in December 1999 providing for the issuance of up to an aggregate of $700 million in common shares, preferred shares and debt securities to facilitate future financing activities in the public capital markets. In March 2002, United Dominion completed the sale of 3.0 million shares of common stock at a price of $14.91 per share. In June 2002, United Dominion issued $200 million of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due in June 2009. As of June 30, 2002, approximately $294 million of equity and debt securities remain available for use under the shelf registration statement. Access to capital markets is dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance.
 
Future Capital Needs
 
Future development expenditures are expected to be funded primarily through joint ventures or with proceeds from the sale of property, and to a lesser extent, cash flows provided by operating activities. Acquisition activity in strategic markets is expected to be largely financed by the reinvestment of proceeds from the sale of property in non-strategic markets.
 
As of June 30, 2002, United Dominion has approximately $17.6 million of secured debt maturing during 2002 which we anticipate repaying using proceeds from mortgage refinancing activity or borrowings under unsecured or secured credit facilities.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. The accounting policies used in preparing our interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are the same as those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Our critical accounting policies are those having the most impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results and those requiring significant judgements and estimates. These policies include those related to (1) capital expenditures, (2) revenue recognition, and (3) derivatives and hedging activities. Our critical accounting policies are described in more detail in the section entitled “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, 2001. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies from those reported in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K. With respect to these critical accounting policies, our management believes that the application of judgements and assessments is consistently applied and produces financial information that fairly depicts the results of operations for all periods presented.

Statements of Cash Flow
 
The following discussion explains the changes in net cash provided by operating and financing activities and net cash used in investing activities that are presented in United Dominion’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
 
Operating Activities
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion’s cash flow from operating activities was $116.9 million compared to $117.2 million for 2001. The slight decrease in cash flow from operating activities resulted primarily from decreased collections on escrow accounts and joint venture receivables and increased payments of accrued incentive compensation, which were partially offset by increased revenues and operating earnings.
 
Investing Activities
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, net cash used in investing activities was $117.7 million compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $51.4 million for 2001. Changes in the level of investing activities from period to period reflect United Dominion’s strategy as it relates to its acquisition, capital expenditure, development and disposition programs, as well as the impact of the capital market environment on these activities.
 
Acquisitions
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion acquired six communities with 2,197 apartment homes for approximately $157 million. In addition, in June 2002, United Dominion purchased the remaining two apartment communities with 644 apartment homes that were part of an unconsolidated development joint venture in which United Dominion owned a 25% interest and served as the managing partner for approximately $52 million.
 
During 2002, management plans to continue to channel new investments to those markets that are projected to provide the best investment returns for us over the next ten years. Markets will be targeted based upon defined criteria including past performance, expected job growth, current and anticipated housing supply and demand and the ability to attract and support household formation.
 
Capital Expenditures
 
United Dominion capitalizes those expenditures related to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. Expenditures necessary to maintain an existing property in ordinary operating condition are expensed as incurred.
 
During the first six months of 2002, $21.5 million or $280 per home was spent on capital expenditures for all of United Dominion’s communities excluding development and commercial properties. These capital improvements included turnover related expenditures for floor coverings and appliances, other recurring capital expenditures such as HVAC equipment, roofs, landscaping, siding, parking lots and other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures, which aggregated $16.9 million or $220 per home. In addition, revenue enhancing capital expenditures, including water sub-metering, the initial installation of microwaves or washer-dryers and extensive interior upgrades totaled $4.2 million or $55 per home and major renovations totaled $0.4 million or $5 per home for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Total capital improvements during the first half of 2002 remained relatively constant compared to the same period in 2001. United Dominion will continue to selectively add revenue enhancing improvements that we believe will provide a return on investment substantially in excess of United Dominion’s cost of capital. Recurring capital expenditures during 2002 are currently expected to be approximately $435 per home.
 
Real Estate under Development
 
Development activity is focused in core markets that have strong operations managers in place. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion invested approximately $7.4 million in real estate projects, down $22.9 million from its 2001 level of $30.3 million.

In addition, United Dominion owns nine parcels of land that it continues to hold for future development that had a carrying value at June 30, 2002 of $11.3 million. Seven of the nine parcels represent additional phases to existing communities as United Dominion plans to add apartment homes adjacent to currently owned communities that are in improving markets.
 
Disposition of Investments
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion sold nine communities with 2,366 apartment homes and one commercial property for an aggregate sales price of approximately $103.8 million and recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $11.5 million. Proceeds from the sales were

20


Table of Contents
applied primarily to acquire communities, fund development activities and reduce debt. In addition, during the first quarter of 2002, $3.1 million in proceeds was received on the condemnation of 96 units of a community in Fresno, California that resulted in a gain of $1.2 million.
 
United Dominion continues to pursue its strategy of exiting markets where long-term growth prospects are limited and redeploying capital into markets that would enhance future growth rates and economies of scale. United Dominion currently has 19 communities with 5,151 apartment homes under contract for sale for a total consideration that is above carrying value. These sales are subject to due diligence by the buyers.
 
During 2002, United Dominion plans to dispose of selected communities in non-core markets or with inferior locations, significant capital expense requirements without the potential of a corresponding increase in rent, or insufficient growth potential. Proceeds from 2002 dispositions, expected to be at levels above that of 2001, are planned to be used to acquire communities, fund development activity and to reduce debt.
 
Financing Activities
 
Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $1.7 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $165.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. As part of the plan to improve United Dominion’s balance sheet position, we utilized proceeds from dispositions, equity and debt offerings and refinancings to extend maturities, pay down existing debt and purchase new properties.
 
The following is a recap of the financing activities for the first six months of 2002:
 
 
 
Borrowed an additional $253.6 million under our existing Fannie Mae credit facilities and $70.7 million under a new $72 million Freddie Mac revolving credit facility (see further discussion under “Credit Facilities”).
 
 
 
Repaid $293.6 million of secured debt and $54.3 million of unsecured debt, assumed $29.1 million of secured debt in connection with the acquisition of properties and was relieved of $14.2 million of secured debt in connection with the disposition of properties.
 
 
 
In March 2002, completed the sale of 3.0 million common shares at a price of $14.91 per share. The net proceeds of $42.3 million were used to acquire apartment communities.
 
 
 
In June 2002, issued $200 million of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due in June 2009. The net proceeds of $198.3 million from the issuance were used to reduce outstanding debt under our $375 million unsecured revolving credit facility.
 
 
 
Incurred $16.8 million in prepayment penalties of which $15.8 million is associated with the refinancing of certain mortgages using the proceeds from the new Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac credit facilities. Management believes that the net present value of these refinancing transactions ranges from approximately $17 to $20 million. The remaining $1.0 million in prepayment penalties were associated with the early payoff of loans on sale properties.

Credit Facilities
 
United Dominion has four secured revolving credit facilities with Fannie Mae with an aggregate commitment of $860 million and one with Freddie Mac for $72 million. As of June 30, 2002, $676.3 million was outstanding under the Fannie Mae credit facilities leaving $183.7 million of unused capacity. The Fannie Mae credit facilities are for an initial term of ten years, bear interest at floating and fixed rates and can be extended for an additional five years at United Dominion’s discretion. As of June 30, 2002, $70.7 million had been funded under the Freddie Mac credit facility leaving $1.3 million of unused capacity. The Freddie Mac credit facility is for an initial term of five years with an option by United Dominion to extend for an additional four year term at the then market rate.
 
As of June 30, 2002, the aggregate borrowings under both the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac credit facilities was $747 million. We have $288.9 million of the funded balance fixed at a weighted average interest rate of 6.4% with a weighted average maturity of nine years. The remaining balance on these facilities is currently at a weighted average variable rate of 2.6%.
 
United Dominion has a $375 million three-year unsecured bank revolving credit facility that matures in August 2003. As of June 30, 2002, $82.2 million was outstanding under the bank credit facility leaving $292.8 million of unused capacity. Under the bank credit facility, United Dominion may borrow at a rate of LIBOR plus 110 basis points for LIBOR-based borrowings and pays a facility fee, which is equal to 0.25% of the commitment.
 
The Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac credit facilities and the bank credit facility are subject to customary financial covenants and limitations.
 
Information concerning short-term bank borrowings under United Dominion’s bank credit facility is summarized in the table that follows (dollars in thousands):

Derivative Instruments
 
As part of United Dominion’s overall interest rate risk management strategy, we use derivatives as a means to fix the interest rates of variable rate debt obligations or to hedge anticipated financing transactions. United Dominion’s derivative transactions used for interest rate risk management include various interest rate swaps with indices that relate to the pricing of specific financial instruments of United Dominion. United Dominion believes that we have appropriately controlled our interest rate risk through the use of derivative instruments. Due to the increase in interest rates during the first half of 2002, the fair value of United Dominion’s derivative instruments has increased from an unfavorable value position of $14.9 million at December 31, 2001 to an unfavorable value position of $13.0 million at June 30, 2002.
 
Funds from Operations
 
Funds from operations, or FFO, is defined as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciable property and extraordinary items, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. United Dominion computes FFO for all periods presented in accordance with the recommendations set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust’s October 1, 1999 White Paper. United Dominion considers FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance, and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flows as a measure of United Dominion’s operating performance and liquidity. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.
 

22


Table of Contents
Adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, is defined as FFO less projected recurring capital expenditures for our stabilized portfolio of $435 per unit in 2002 and $418 per unit actually spent in 2001. The 2002 unit charge will be adjusted to actual at year-end. We believe AFFO is the best measure of economic profitability for REITs.

Results of Operations
 
The following discussion includes the results of both continuing and discontinued operations for the periods presented.
 
Net Income Available to Common Shareholders
 
Net income available to common shareholders was $20.5 million or $0.19 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, compared to $20.1 million or $0.20 per share for the same period in the prior year. Although net income available to common shareholders remained relatively flat for the quarter, continuing property operations generated $7.1 million more of rental income in 2002 and United Dominion reduced interest expense by $2.0 million. This, in part, was offset by higher depreciation expense due to a larger portfolio and lower gains on the sale of depreciable property.

Table of Contents
 
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, net income available to common shareholders decreased $4.9 million or $0.5 per share compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the period was primarily due to an extraordinary charge for the early extinguishment of debt due to secured debt refinancing activity during the first quarter, and to a lesser extent, lower gains recognized from the sale of depreciable property. These charges were partially offset by a $10.2 million increase in rental income generated from continuing property operations and a reduction in interest expense of $6.4 million. There were also $8.6 million in non-recurring charges recognized in the first quarter of 2001.
 
Apartment Community Operations
 
United Dominion’s net income is primarily generated from the operations of its apartment communities. The following table summarizes the operating performance of United Dominion’s total apartment portfolio for each of the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

The increase in property operating income provided by the same communities, development communities and acquisition communities since June 30, 2001 is primarily due to the weighted average number of apartment homes increasing 1.6% from the six month period ended June 30, 2001 to the six month period ended June 30, 2002, and to the continuing lease-up and stabilization of developed communities.
 
Same Communities
 
United Dominion’s same communities (those communities acquired, developed or stabilized prior to April 1, 2001 and held on April 1, 2002 which consisted of 67,132 apartment homes for the six month period) provided 88% of our property operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
 
For the second quarter of 2002, property operating income for the same communities increased 0.3% or $0.2 million compared to the same period in 2001. The growth in property operating income resulted from a $0.3 million or 0.2% increase in property rental income over the same period in the prior year. The increase was driven by a $1.3 million or 0.9% increase in rental rates which was offset by a $1.4 million or 46% increase in concessions. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, same community property operating income increased 1.5% or $2.5 million compared to the same period last year. The growth in property operating income resulted primarily from a $2.6 million or 1.0% increase in property rental income that was driven by a $4.5 million or 1.6% increase in average monthly rental rates partially offset by a $2.6 million or a 48% increase in concessions. Physical occupancy for the quarter declined 0.7% to 93.4%.
 
For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, property operating expenses at these same communities increased only $0.1 million or 0.2%. The increase in property operating expenses was primarily driven by a $0.7 million increase in repair and maintenance expense and a $0.4 million and $0.2 million increase in taxes and insurance costs, respectively. These increases were offset by a $0.9 million decrease in utilities expense and a $0.1 million decrease in personnel expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, same community property operating expenses increased $0.1 million, or 0.1%, compared to the same period last year. The increase in property operating expenses was driven by higher repair and maintenance costs of $1.4 million and a $0.7 increase in taxes that was partially offset by a $2.0 million decrease in utilities expense.

As a result of the percentage changes in property rental income and property operating expenses, the operating margin (property operating income divided by property rental income) increased 0.1% over the comparable period last year to 64.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002.
 
Non-Mature Communities
 
The remaining 12% of United Dominion’s property operating income during the first six months of 2002 was generated from its non-mature communities (those communities acquired or developed during 2001 and 2002 and those properties classified as held for disposition). United Dominion’s development communities, which included 1,238 apartment homes constructed since January 1, 2001, provided $2.6 million of property operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2002. In addition, the 13 communities with 4,145 apartment homes acquired by United Dominion during 2001 and 2002 provided $6.5 million of property operating income for the six-month period. The 19 communities with 5,151 apartment homes classified as real estate held for disposition provided $10.7 million of property operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense decreased $2.0 million and $6.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, from the corresponding periods in 2001 primarily due to the effect of our debt refinancings and decreasing interest rates that were partially offset by the overall increase in the weighted average level of debt outstanding. For the six month period, the weighted average amount of debt outstanding increased 4.7% or $95.3 million when compared to the same period in the prior year and the weighted average interest rate decreased from 7.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 6.1% for the same period in 2002. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the weighted average amount of debt outstanding increased 10.5% or $203.1 million when compared to the same period in the prior year and the weighted average interest rate decreased from 7.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 6.0% for the same period in 2002. The weighted average amount of debt employed during 2002 is higher as we borrowed additional funds under our Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac credit facilities, the proceeds of which were primarily used to acquire additional apartment communities and repurchase common shares. The decrease in the average interest rate during 2002 reflects the ability of United Dominion to take advantage of declining interest rates through refinancing and the utilization of variable rate debt.
 
Impairment Loss on Real Estate
 
United Dominion is diligently pursuing its strategy of exiting markets where long-term growth prospects are limited and the redeployment of capital would enhance future growth rates and economies of scale. During the first quarter of 2002, United Dominion placed nine assets, with an aggregate book value of $89.3 million, under contract of sale and reclassified them as “Real estate held for disposition.” These sales closed in the second quarter of 2002 and resulted in the withdrawal from the markets of Naples, Florida, Tucson, Arizona, Las Vegas, Nevada and substantially all of Memphis, Tennessee. Although these sales resulted in an aggregate net gain of $11.5 million, certain of these assets were contracted at net selling prices below their net book values at March 31, 2002. As a result, United Dominion recorded an aggregate $2.3 million impairment loss during the first quarter for the write-down of a portfolio of five apartment communities in Memphis, Tennessee.
 
General and Administrative
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2002, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million or 13.3% from the comparable period in 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, general and administrative expenses increased $2.4 million or 23.3% over the comparable period in 2001. The increase was primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation expense and a provision made for the pending buyout of certain long-term security monitoring contracts that United Dominion currently has on approximately 25% of its portfolio.
 
Gains on Sales of Investments
 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, United Dominion recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $11.8 million and $12.7 million, respectively, compared to $20.6 million and $24.7 million for the comparable periods in 2001. Changes in the level of gains recognized from period to period

reflect the changing level of United Dominion’s divestiture activity from period to period as well as the extent of gains related to specific properties sold.
 
Inflation
 
United Dominion believes that the direct effects of inflation on our operations have been inconsequential. Substantially all of United Dominion’s leases are for a term of one year or less which generally minimizes our risk from the adverse effects of inflation.
 
Factors Affecting Our Business and Prospects
 
There are many factors that affect our business and the results of our operations, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
 
n
 
Unfavorable changes in apartment market and economic conditions that could adversely affect occupancy levels and rental rates.
 
n
 
The failure of acquisitions to achieve anticipated results.
 
n
 
Possible difficulty in selling apartment communities.
 
n
 
Competitive factors that may limit our ability to lease apartment homes or increase or maintain rents.
 
n
 
Insufficient cash flow that could affect our debt financing and create refinancing risk.
 
n
 
Failure to generate sufficient revenue, which could impair our debt service payments and distributions to shareholders.
 
n
 
Development and construction risks that may impact our profitability.
 
n
 
Our failure to succeed in new markets.
 
n
 
Changing interest rates, which could increase interests costs and affect the market price of our securities.
 
n
 
Potential liability for environmental contamination, which could result in substantial costs.
 
n
 
Certain tax risks if we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year.
 
For a discussion of these and other factors affecting our business and prospects, see “Item 1.—Business—Factors Affecting Our Business and Prospects” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Item 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
United Dominion is exposed to interest rate changes associated with our unsecured credit facility and other variable rate debt as well as refinancing risk on our fixed rate debt. United Dominion’s involvement with derivative financial instruments is limited and we do not expect to use them for trading or other speculative purposes. United Dominion uses derivative instruments solely to manage its exposure to interest rates.
 
See United Dominion’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 “Item 7A Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for a more complete discussion of our interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 2002, United Dominion’s market risk has not changed materially from the amounts reported on the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

PART II
 
Item 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
United Dominion and its subsidiaries are engaged in various litigations and have a number of unresolved claims pending. The ultimate liability in respect of such litigations and claims cannot be determined at this time. United Dominion is of the opinion that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, is not likely to be material in relation to the consolidated financial statements of United Dominion.
 
Item 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
 
On May 7, 2002, United Dominion held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At the meeting, the shareholders voted on the election of directors and on a proposal to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as United Dominion’s independent auditors for the year ended December 31, 2002.
