PART I-FINANCIAL INFORMATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Partnership, without audit, pursuant 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 omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is believed, however, that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's December 31, 2002, audited financial statements and notes thereto. NOTE 2 - INTEREST INCOME During 2002, the Partnership sold three ranches due to low production. The Partnership financed the three sales through long-term mortgage notes, with interest ranging from 6% to 7.5%. Interest income is recognized as earned, as it does not relate to the current year farming operations. PART I-FINANCIAL INFORMATION Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Introduction In the ordinary course of business, the Partnership has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Partnership believes the following discussion addresses the most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Partnership's financial condition and results. The Partnership re-evaluates these significant factors as necessary and makes adjustments where facts and circumstances dictate. Historically, actual results have not significantly deviated from those determined using the necessary estimates inherent in the preparation of financial statements. Estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to: estimated price per pound, useable lives of the orchards and related assets, collectibility of receivables, and the deferral of certain crop costs. These accounting policies are applied consistently for all years presented. Information about the impact on our operating results is included in the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements. " Liquidity and Capital Resources The partnership generally receives payments from crop sales in installments over the twelve months following harvest. The partnership retained sufficient cash proceeds from the 2002 crop and has secured sufficient additional crop financing necessary to sustain production of the 2003 crop. The portion of the additional financing expected for the 2003 crop, if needed, will be supplied by the almond processor. This practice is common to the industry since final cash receipts for any crop year may extend beyond twelve months from the harvest. The General Partner believes that these sources provide adequate capital for the operating needs of the Partnership in 2003. Results of Operations The Partnership continued to operate at a break-even rate in the second quarter 2003. This result is not indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year, due to the seasonal nature of the almond growing business. Almonds are harvested in August through October and the crop revenues and expenses are recognized at that time. Since the partnership's crop care has not been completed for this growing season, it is not possible to say if cultural costs will be higher or lower than last year's costs. At this time though, it seems that cultural costs will be substantially the same as last year. Future Property Sales The California Almond Industry is currently going through a period in which supply exceeds demand. In the last few years, almond production has increased more rapidly than the markets have expanded. This has resulted in lower than normal prices for almonds and depressed prices for almond properties. This trend is expected to continue, until supply and demand can be brought into balance. At this time there is no way to know when this will be. Because of the current condition of the almond industry and the aging of the almond trees on the Partnership properties, the General Partner has decided to put the three remaining properties up for sale. It is intended that the properties will be listed for sale after the harvest of the 2003 crop so that the Partnership can retain the crop income. After the sale of the last property, the liquidation of the Partnership will start. At this time there is no way to estimate the time of the final liquidation, due to the delayed payment for the 2003 crop and the notes the Partnership holds on the three properties that were sold in 2002. Almond Market The Objective Forecast for the 2003 almond crop is one billion pounds. The final 2002 crop was one billion, 82 million pounds. If this estimate is correct, almond prices for the 2003 crop could be equal to or lower then prices received for the 2002 crop. This continues to have a depressing effect on the value of almond orchards in California, and has produced an almond orchard market with few buyers and many sellers. Item 3. Controls and Procedures Within the 90 day period prior to the date of this report, the Partnership carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of the General Partner and the General Partner's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15d-14 ( c ). Based *on that evaluation, the General Partner concluded that the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in a timely manner to alert them to material information relating to the Partnership which is required to be included in the Partnership's periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings. There have been no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date.
