INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying condensed interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited. These condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, such statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of such periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES The Partnership has a management and service agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner (the "Manager") for a monthly management fee of 5% of revenues, excluding revenues from the sale of cable television systems or franchises. Management fee expense approximated $38,800 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. In addition to the monthly management fee described above, the Partnership reimburses the Manager for direct expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership and for the Partnership's allocable share of operational costs associated with services provided by the Manager. All cable television properties managed by the Corporate General Partner and its subsidiary are charged a proportionate share of these expenses. The Corporate General Partner has contracted with Falcon Communications, L.P. ("FCLP"), successor to Falcon Holding Group, L.P. ("FHGLP"), an affiliated partnership, to provide corporate management services for the Partnership. Corporate office allocations and district office expenses are charged to the properties served based primarily on the respective percentage of basic subscribers or homes passed (dwelling units within a system) within the designated service areas. The total amount charged to the Partnership for these services approximated $77,300 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Management fees and reimbursed expenses due the Corporate General Partner are non-interest bearing. Substantially all programming services have been purchased through FCLP. FCLP, in the normal course of business, purchases cable programming services from certain program suppliers owned in whole or in part by affiliates of an entity that became a general partner of FCLP on September 30, 1998. Such purchases of programming services are made on behalf of the Partnership and the other partnerships managed by the Corporate General Partner as well as for FCLP's own cable television operations. FCLP charges the Partnership for these services based on an estimate of what the Corporate General Partner could negotiate for such programming services for the 15 partnerships managed by the Corporate General Partner as a group. The Partnership recorded programming fee expense of $184,400 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Programming fees are included in service costs in the statements of operations. -5- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS --------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- 3. EARNINGS PER UNIT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST Earnings and losses per unit of limited partnership interest is based on the average number of units outstanding during the periods presented. For this purpose, earnings and losses have been allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. The General Partners do not own units of partnership interest in the Partnership, but rather hold a participation interest in the income, losses and distributions of the Partnership. -6- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") required the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") to, among other things, implement extensive regulation of the rates charged by cable television systems for basic and programming service tiers, installation, and customer premises equipment leasing. Compliance with those rate regulations has had a negative impact on the Partnership's revenues and cash flow. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Telecom Act") substantially changed the competitive and regulatory environment for cable television and telecommunications service providers. Among other changes, the 1996 Telecom Act ended the regulation of cable programming service tier rates on March 31, 1999. There can be no assurance as to what, if any, further action may be taken by the FCC, Congress or any other regulatory authority or court, or the effect thereof on the Partnership's business. Accordingly, the Partnership's historical financial results as described below are not necessarily indicative of future performance. This Report includes certain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, future results of operations, regulatory requirements, competition, capital needs and general business conditions applicable to the Partnership. Such forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the uncertainty of legislative and regulatory changes and the rapid developments in the competitive environment facing cable television operators such as the Partnership. In addition to the information provided herein, reference is made to the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998 for additional information regarding such matters and the effect thereof on the Partnership's business. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Partnership's revenues increased from $769,700 to $776,600, or by 1.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. Of the $6,900 increase, $8,700 was due to other revenue producing items, including charges for franchise fees that the Partnership is permitted to pass through to its customers. The increase was partially offset by a $1,800 decrease due to decreases in the number of subscriptions for basic, tier and equipment rental services. As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership had approximately 7,100 basic subscribers and 1,600 premium service units. Service costs increased from $229,600 to $262,600, or by 14.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. Service costs represent costs directly attributable to providing cable services to customers. The increase was primarily due to increases in franchise and programming fees. Franchise fees increased due to a non-recurring adjustment in the first quarter of 1999 related to a payment that was greater than the estimates previously recorded. Programming expense increased primarily due to increases in rates charged by program suppliers. General and administrative expenses decreased from $90,800 to $89,300, or by 1.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in professional fees, including audit fees, and bad debt expense. -7- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Management fees and reimbursed expenses decreased from $121,200 to $116,100, or by 4.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. Management fees increased in direct relation to increased revenues as described above. Reimbursed expenses decreased primarily due to lower allocated personnel costs resulting from staff reductions. Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $108,400 to $122,200, or by 12.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998, primarily due to the rebuild of the Partnership's plant in Taylorville, Illinois. Depreciation expense increased as portions of the system rebuild were placed into service following the first three months of 1998. Operating income decreased from $219,700 to $186,400, or by 15.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the equivalent period in 1998, primarily due to increases in depreciation expense and franchise and programming fees as described above. Interest income, net of interest expense, increased from $17,000 to $17,400, or by 2.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. The increase was primarily due to higher average cash balances available for investment. Due to the factors described above, the Partnership's net income decreased from $236,700 to $203,800, or by 13.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. Based on its experience in the cable television industry, the Partnership believes that operating income before depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and related measures of cash flow serve as important financial analysis tools for measuring and comparing cable television companies in several areas, such as liquidity, operating performance and leverage. EBITDA is not a measurement determined under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA should not be considered by the reader as an alternative to net income as an indicator of financial performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. In addition, the definition of EBITDA may not be identical to similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA as a percentage of revenues decreased from 42.6% to 39.7% during the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period in 1998. The decrease was primarily caused by higher franchise and programming fees as described above. EBITDA decreased from $328,100 to $308,600, or by 5.9%, as a result. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Partnership's primary objective, having invested its net offering proceeds in cable systems, is to distribute to its partners all available cash flow from operations and proceeds from the sale of cable systems, if any, after providing for expenses and capital requirements relating to the expansion, improvement and upgrade of its cable systems. Based on its belief that the market for cable systems has generally improved, the Corporate General Partner is evaluating strategies for liquidating the Partnership. These strategies include the potential sale of substantially all of the Partnership's assets to third parties and/or affiliates of the -8- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED) Corporate General Partner, and the subsequent liquidation of the Partnership. The Corporate General Partner expects to complete its evaluation within the next several months and intends to advise unitholders promptly if it believes that commencing a liquidating transaction would be in the best interests of unitholders. At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had no debt outstanding. The Partnership relies upon cash flow from operations to meet operating requirements and fund necessary capital expenditures. Although the Partnership currently has a significant cash balance, there can be no assurance that the Partnership's cash flow will be adequate to meet its future liquidity requirements. The Partnership is required to rebuild its Taylorville, Illinois cable system at an estimated total cost of $2,640,700 under a provision of its franchise agreement and is also rebuilding portions of its cable systems in surrounding communities at an estimated additional cost of approximately $691,900. Rebuild construction costs amounted to approximately $3,177,000 from inception to December 31, 1998. The Partnership has budgeted expenditures of approximately $300,000 in 1999 to complete the rebuild. The Partnership is required to upgrade its system in the community of Gillespie, Illinois under a provision of its franchise agreement. Expenditures for a digital upgrade, scheduled for 1999, are projected to total approximately $96,000. The Partnership expects to complete the project by the required deadline of December 31, 1999. Additionally, the Partnership is planning to upgrade its cable system in Litchfield, Illinois at an estimated cost of approximately $1,100,000 provided a franchise renewal is obtained. Although the franchise agreement is still under negotiation, the Partnership anticipates that the agreement will require completion of the upgrade within 24 to 36 months. Other capital expenditures budgeted for 1999 total approximately $327,000 for the improvement and upgrade of other assets. Capital expenditures approximated $7,200 in the first three months of 1999. As a result of these planned capital expenditures, the Partnership intends, if possible, to maintain cash reserves. In the future, the Partnership may also need to borrow. On September 30, 1997, Enstar Finance Company, LLC ("EFC"), a subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, obtained a secured bank facility of $35 million from two agent banks in order to obtain funds that would in turn be advanced to the Partnership and certain of the other partnerships managed by the Corporate General Partner. The Partnership's maximum loan commitment is approximately $799,600, which it will become eligible to borrow at such time as the Partnership enters into a loan agreement with EFC. The partnership agreement requires borrowings from an affiliate to be repaid within 12 months. Such funds would be used to provide capital to fund future rebuild and upgrade requirements. Borrowings, if any, will bear interest at the lender's base rate (7.75% at March 31, 1999) plus 0.625%, or at an offshore rate plus 1.875%. The Partnership will be permitted to prepay amounts outstanding under the facility at any time without penalty, and will be able to reborrow throughout the term of the facility up to the maximum commitment then available so long as no event of default exists. The facility will contain certain financial tests and other covenants including, among others, restrictions on incurrence of indebtedness, investments, sale of assets, acquisitions and other covenants, defaults and conditions. The facility will not restrict the payment of distributions to partners unless an event of default exists thereunder. -9- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED) The Partnership paid distributions totaling $94,500 during the quarter ended March 31, 1999, and expects to continue to pay distributions at this level during 1999. There can, however, be no assurances regarding the level, timing or continuation of future distributions. Beginning in August 1997, the Corporate General Partner elected to self-insure the Partnership's cable distribution plant and subscriber connections against property damage as well as possible business interruptions caused by such damage. The decision to self-insure was made due to significant increases in the cost of insurance coverage and decreases in the amount of insurance coverage available. In October 1998, FCLP reinstated third party insurance coverage for all of the cable television properties owned or managed by FCLP to cover damage to cable distribution plant and subscriber connections and against business interruptions resulting from such damage. This coverage is subject to a significant annual deductible which applies to all of the cable television properties owned or managed by FCLP. All of the Partnership's subscribers are served by its system in Taylorville, Illinois and neighboring communities. Significant damage to the system due to seasonal weather conditions or other events could have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's liquidity and cash flows. The Partnership continues to purchase insurance coverage in amounts its management views as appropriate for all other property, liability, automobile, workers' compensation and other types of insurable risks. During the first quarter of 1999, FCLP, on behalf of the Corporate General Partner, continued its identification and evaluation of the Partnership's Year 2000 business risks and its exposure to computer systems, to operating equipment which is date sensitive and to the interface systems of its vendors and service providers. The evaluation has focused on identification and assessment of systems and equipment that may fail to distinguish between the year 1900 and the year 2000 and, as a result, may cease to operate or may operate improperly when dates after December 31, 1999 are introduced. Based on a study conducted in 1997, FCLP concluded that certain of the Partnership's information systems were not Year 2000 compliant and elected to replace such software and hardware with applications and equipment certified by the vendors as Year 2000 compliant. FCLP installed the new systems in the first quarter of 1999. The total anticipated cost, including replacement software and hardware, will be borne by FCLP. FCLP is continuing to utilize internal and external resources to extend the functionality of the new systems. FCLP does not believe that any other significant information technology projects affecting the Partnership have been delayed due to efforts to identify and address Year 2000 issues. Additionally, FCLP has continued to inventory the Partnership's operating and revenue generating equipment to identify items that need to be upgraded or replaced and has surveyed cable equipment manufacturers to determine which of their models require upgrade or replacement to become Year 2000 compliant. Identification and evaluation, while ongoing, are substantially completed and a plan has been developed to remediate non-compliant equipment prior to January 1, 2000. Upgrade or replacement, testing and implementation will be performed over the remaining months of 1999. The cost of such replacement or remediation, currently estimated at $82,900, is not expected to have a material effect on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations. The -10- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED) Partnership had not incurred any costs related to the Year 2000 project as of March 31, 1999. FCLP plans to inventory, assess, replace and test equipment with embedded computer chips in a separate segment of its project, presently scheduled for the second half of 1999. FCLP has continued to survey the Partnership's significant third party vendors and service suppliers to determine the extent to which the Partnership's interface systems are vulnerable should those third parties fail to solve their own Year 2000 problems on a timely basis. Approximately 80% of the Partnership's most critical equipment vendors have responded to the surveys regarding the Year 2000 compliance of their products. Additional compliance information has been obtained for specific products from vendor Web sites. Among the most significant service providers upon which the Partnership relies are programming suppliers, power and telephone companies, various banking institutions and the Partnership's customer billing service. A majority of these service suppliers either have not responded to FCLP's inquiries regarding their Year 2000 compliance programs or have responded that they are unsure if they will become compliant on a timely basis. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the systems of other companies on which the Partnership must rely will be Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. FCLP is developing a contingency plan in 1999 to address possible situations in which various systems of the Partnership, or of third parties with which the Partnership does business, are not compliant prior to January 1, 2000. Considerable effort has been directed toward distinguishing between those contingencies with a greater probability of occurring from those whose occurrence is considered remote. Moreover, such a plan has focused on systems whose failure poses a material risk to the Partnership's results of operations and financial condition. The Partnership's most significant Year 2000 risk is an interruption of service to subscribers, resulting in a potentially material loss of revenues. Other risks include impairment of the Partnership's ability to bill and/or collect payment from its customers, which could negatively impact its liquidity and cash flows. Such risks exist primarily due to technological operations dependent upon third parties and to a much lesser extent to those under the control of the Partnership. Failure to achieve Year 2000 readiness in either area could have a material adverse impact on the Partnership. The Partnership is unable to estimate the possible effect on its results of operations, liquidity and financial condition should its significant service suppliers fail to complete their readiness programs prior to the Year 2000. Depending on the supplier, equipment malfunction or type of service provided, as well as the location and duration of the problem, the effect could be material. For example, if a cable programming supplier encounters an interruption of its signal due to a Year 2000 satellite malfunction, the Partnership will be unable to provide the signal to its cable subscribers, which could result in a loss of revenues, although the Partnership would attempt to provide its customers with alternative program services for the period during which it could not provide the original signal. Due to the number of individually owned and operated channels the Partnership carries for its subscribers, and the packaging of those channels, the Partnership is unable to estimate any reasonable dollar impact of such interruption. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998 Cash provided by operating activities increased by $134,800 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared with the corresponding period in 1998. The Partnership used $249,100 less cash -11- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED) to pay liabilities owed to the Corporate General Partner and third party creditors during the three months ended March 31, 1999 than in the first three months of 1998 due to differences in the timing of payments. Receivables and prepaid expenses used $95,200 more cash in the three months ended March 31, 1999 due to timing differences in receivable collections and in the payment of prepaid expenses. The Partnership used $215,600 less cash in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 1999 than in the corresponding three months of 1998 due to a decrease in expenditures for tangible assets. INFLATION Certain of the Partnership's expenses, such as those for wages and benefits, equipment repair and replacement, and billing and marketing generally increase with inflation. However, the Partnership does not believe that its financial results have been, or will be, adversely affected by inflation in a material way, provided that the Partnership is able to increase its service rates periodically, of which there can be no assurance. -12- ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM II-1, L.P.
