UNITED INVESTORS INCOME PROPERTIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note A - Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of United Investors Income Properties (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. 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 United Investors Real Estate, Inc. (the "General Partner" or "UIRE"), a Delaware corporation, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. For the period of February 27, 2004 to June 30, 2004 and part of the period ended June 30, 2003, the General Partner was a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. On May 1, 2003, Everest Properties, Inc. a California corporation ("Everest") acquired all of the capital stock of the General Partner. In connection with this transaction, the General Partner and the Partnership entered into a Services Agreement effective May 1, 2003 (the "Services Agreement") with NHP Management Company ("NHP"), an affiliate of AIMCO, whereby NHP agreed to provide portfolio and property management services for the Partnership. The portfolio management services included the services the General Partner of the Partnership generally performs or procures in connection with the management of the Partnership, subject to certain limitations provided for in the Services Agreement. As compensation for providing the portfolio management services and the property management services, the General Partner paid and assigned over to NHP all of the income, distributions, fees, commissions, reimbursements and other payments payable by the Partnership to the General Partner or any of its affiliates. On February 27, 2004, AIMCO/IPT, Inc. ("IPT"), a subsidiary of AIMCO, reacquired from Everest all of the capital stock of the General Partner. As of February 27, 2004, the Services Agreement was terminated. Reclassification Certain balances from 2003 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties The Partnership has no employees and depends on the General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to affiliates for services and for reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership. Pursuant to the Services Agreement discussed in "Note A", all such payments for services provided for in the Partnership Agreement shall be paid to NHP. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, affiliates of the General Partner and NHP were entitled to receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $41,000 and $42,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, which is included in operating expenses. An affiliate of the General Partner and NHP charged the Partnership reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $45,000 and $32,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. For acting as real estate broker in connection with the 1999 sale of Peachtree Corners Medical Building, the General Partner earned a real estate commission of approximately $21,000. However, this amount is not payable until the limited partners receive an amount equal to their adjusted capital investment and a cumulative distribution equal to an 8% annual return from the last additional closing date or, if greater, a 6% cumulative annual return from their date of admission to the Partnership. At June 30, 2004, the limited partners had not received their return. Therefore, the commission is included in Due to affiliates on the accompanying balance sheet at June 30, 2004. The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO, which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $15,000 and $23,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration. On February 27, 2004, IPT, a subsidiary of AIMCO, reacquired from Everest all of the capital stock of the General Partner. In addition to its indirect ownership of the sole general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 24,429 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 40.00% of the outstanding units at June 30, 2004. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. AIMCO or its affiliates may acquire additional Units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unit holders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 40.00% of the outstanding Units at June 30, 2004, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO, as its sole stockholder. Note C - Contingencies On August 8, 2003 AIMCO Properties L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, was served with a complaint in the United States District Court, District of Columbia alleging that AIMCO Properties L.P. willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty per week. On March 5, 2004 Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint also naming NHP Management Company, which is also an affiliate of the General Partner. The complaint is styled as a Collective Action under the FLSA and seeks to certify state subclasses in California, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. Specifically, the plaintiffs contend that AIMCO Properties L.P. failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call". Additionally, the complaint alleges AIMCO Properties L.P. failed to comply with the FLSA in compensating maintenance workers for time that they worked in responding to a call while "on-call". The defendants have filed an answer to the amended complaint denying the substantive allegations. Some discovery has taken place and settlement negotiations continue. Although the outcome of any litigation is uncertain, AIMCO Properties, L.P. does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. Similarly, the General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation matters involving it or its investment properties that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business. As previously disclosed, the Central Regional Office of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission is conducting an investigation relating to certain matters. AIMCO believes the areas of investigation include AIMCO's miscalculated monthly net rental income figures in third quarter 2003, forecasted guidance, accounts payable, rent concessions, vendor rebates, and capitalization of expenses and payroll. AIMCO is cooperating fully. AIMCO does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. Similarly, the General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The matters discussed in this report contain certain forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding future financial performance and the effect of government regulations. Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors including, without limitation: national and local economic conditions; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Registrant and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Registrant operates; financing risks, including the risk that cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; real estate risks, including variations of real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting and defending claims and any adverse outcomes, and possible environmental liabilities. Readers should carefully review the Registrant's financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the documents the Registrant files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership's investment properties consist of three apartment complexes. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for each of the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003: Average Occupancy Property 2004 2003 Bronson Place Apartments 89% 90% Mountlake Terrace, Washington Meadow Wood Apartments (1) 86% 94% Medford, Oregon Defoors Crossing Apartments (2) 87% 81% Atlanta, Georgia (1) The General Partner attributes the decrease in average occupancy at Meadow Wood Apartments to increased competition and low mortgage rates allowing more tenants to buy homes. (2) The General Partner attributes the increase in average occupancy at Defoors Crossing Apartments to strong resident relations and customer service, as well as improved marketing to potential quality residents. Average occupancy for the first part of 2003 had decreased due to layoffs and the slow economy in the local area. The end of 2003 saw average occupancy improve due to the reasons previously mentioned. 2004 has remained constant with the end of 2003. The Partnership's financial results are dependent upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment properties, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment properties, general economic conditions and weather. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, the General Partner may use rental concessions and rental rate reductions to offset softening market conditions, accordingly, there is no guarantee that the General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. Further, a number of factors which are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively impact the Partnership's financial results. Results of Operations The Partnership recognized net income of approximately $106,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to net income of approximately $138,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 is due to a decrease in total revenues and an increase in total expenses. The Partnership recognized net income of approximately $55,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to net income of approximately $67,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 is due to a decrease in total revenues while total expenses remained constant. Total revenues decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 due to a decrease in other income partially offset by an increase in rental income. Other income decreased due to a decrease in late charges and lease cancellation fees, primarily at Defoors Crossing Apartments. Rental income increased primarily due to an increase in occupancy at Defoors Crossing Apartments, and reduced bad debt expense at all of the properties, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at Meadow Wood Apartments. Total expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2004 due to an increase in general and administrative expense partially offset by a slight decrease in operating expense. Depreciation and property tax expense remained relatively constant during the comparable periods. Operating expense decreased due to a decrease in maintenance expense partially offset by an increase in advertising expense. Maintenance expense decreased due to a decrease in contract repairs at Bronson Place Apartments. Advertising expense increased at all of the Partnership's investment properties, especially periodical advertising cost at Defoors Crossing Apartments. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased costs of services included in the management reimbursements to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses at both June 30, 2004 and 2003 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement. Liquidity and Capital Resources At June 30, 2004, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $307,000 as compared to approximately $263,000 at June 30, 2003. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $202,000 since December 31, 2003, due to approximately $485,000 and $34,000 of cash used in financing and investing activities partially offset by approximately $317,000 of cash provided by operating activities. Cash used in financing activities consisted of distributions to the partners. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts. The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal, state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. The General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 mandates or suggests additional compliance measures with regard to governance, disclosure, audit and other areas. In light of these changes, the Partnership expects that it will incur higher expenses related to compliance, including increased legal and audit fees. Capital improvements planned for each of the Partnership's properties are detailed below. Bronson Place During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Partnership completed approximately $13,000 of capital improvements at Bronson Place Apartments consisting primarily of floor covering replacements, window replacements and major landscaping. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property during the year and currently expects to complete an additional $25,000 in capital improvements during the remainder of 2004. Additional capital improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as the anticipated cash flow generated by the property. Meadow Wood During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Partnership completed approximately $12,000 of capital improvements at Meadow Wood Apartments consisting primarily of water heater, floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property during the year and currently expects to complete an additional $34,000 in capital improvements during the remainder of 2004. Additional capital improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as the anticipated cash flow generated by the property. DeFoors Crossing During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Partnership completed approximately $9,000 of capital improvements at DeFoors Crossing Apartments consisting primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property during the year and currently expects to complete an additional $24,000 in capital improvements during the remainder of 2004. Additional capital improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as the anticipated cash flow generated by the property. The additional capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations or from Partnership reserves. To the extent that such budgeted capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term. The Partnership distributed the following amounts during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 (in thousands, except per unit data):
Six Months Per Limited Six Months Per Limited Ended Partnership Ended Partnership June 30, 2004 Unit June 30, 2003 Unit Operations $ 485 $ 7.86 $ 405 $ 6.57
Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, the availability of cash reserves, and the timing of financings and/or property sales. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations after required capital improvements to permit additional distributions to its partners during the remainder of 2004 or subsequent periods. Other On February 27, 2004, IPT, a subsidiary of AIMCO, reacquired from Everest all of the capital stock of the General Partner. In addition to its indirect ownership of the sole general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 24,429 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 40.00% of the outstanding units at June 30, 2004. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. AIMCO or its affiliates may acquire additional Units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 40.00% of the outstanding Units at June 30, 2004, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO, as its sole stockholder. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which require the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions. The Partnership believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Investment properties are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation, unless considered impaired. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a property may be impaired, the Partnership will make an assessment of its recoverability by estimating the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the property. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate future cash flows, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the property. Real property investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. Several factors may adversely affect the economic performance and value of the Partnership's investment properties. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in the national, regional and local economic climate; local conditions, such as an oversupply of multifamily properties; competition from other available multifamily property owners and changes in market rental rates. Any adverse changes in these factors could cause impairment of the Partnership's assets. Revenue Recognition The Partnership generally leases apartment units for twelve-month terms or less. Rental income attributable to leases is recognized monthly as it is earned. The Partnership evaluates all accounts receivable from residents and establishes an allowance, after the application of security deposits, for accounts greater than 30 days past due on current tenants and all receivables due from former tenants. The Partnership will offer rental concessions during particularly slow months or in response to heavy competition from other similar complexes in the area. Any concessions given at the inception of the lease are amortized over the life of the lease. ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Partnership's management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On August 8, 2003 AIMCO Properties L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, was served with a complaint in the United States District Court, District of Columbia alleging that AIMCO Properties L.P. willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty per week. On March 5, 2004 Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint also naming NHP Management Company, which is also an affiliate of the General Partner. The complaint is styled as a Collective Action under the FLSA and seeks to certify state subclasses in California, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. Specifically, the plaintiffs contend that AIMCO Properties L.P. failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call". Additionally, the complaint alleges AIMCO Properties L.P. failed to comply with the FLSA in compensating maintenance workers for time that they worked in responding to a call while "on-call". The defendants have filed an answer to the amended complaint denying the substantive allegations. Some discovery has taken place and settlement negotiations continue. Although the outcome of any litigation is uncertain, AIMCO Properties, L.P. does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. Similarly, the General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole.
