See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 5 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2004 (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Mortgage Acceptance Company (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows. However, the operating results for interim periods may not be indicative of the results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 contains a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to these items since December 31, 2003, nor have there been any new accounting pronouncements pending adoption that would have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES - AVAILABLE FOR SALE During September 2004, the Company purchased two Fannie Mae DUS certificates, Bayou Pointe and Pomona with principal amounts of approximately $1.7 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The certificates were purchased at premiums of approximately $55,000 and $455,000, respectively, and bear interest at rates of 5.65% per year and 6.22% per year, respectively. 6 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2004 (Unaudited) Information regarding the Company's investment in debt securities is as follows: (In thousands)
September 30, December 31, 2004 2003 ------------- ------------ Amortized cost $ 155,929 $ 158,533 --------- --------- Unrealized gains 10,434 10,040 Unrealized losses (1,059) (1,313) --------- --------- Net unrealized gain 9,375 8,727 --------- --------- Fair value $ 165,304 $ 167,260 ========= =========
Of the Company's portfolio of debt securities, twelve securities with an aggregate fair value of $30.1 million are in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2004. Eight of these securities, with an aggregate fair value of $17.6 million, have been in an unrealized loss position for more than one year. These unrealized losses are as a result of increases in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of the securities. All of the debt securities are performing according to their terms. Furthermore, the Company has the intent and ability to hold these bonds to maturity, or at least until interest rates change such that the fair value is no longer less than book value. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that these impairments are temporary. At September 30, 2004, approximately $155.2 million of these debt securities are pledged as collateral under the Company's repurchase facilities (see Note 6). NOTE 3 - NOTES RECEIVABLE During June 2004, the Company partially funded a $3.6 million loan for Woods of Mandarin, a 401-unit multifamily apartment complex located in Jacksonville, Florida. The Company's fundings through September 30, 2004 were approximately $3.1 million. Approximately $500,000 will be funded in the future based upon the properties' performance. The loan, which matures June 2007, bears interest at a rate of 13.5% per year. During September 2004, the Baywoods note in the amount of approximately $11.0 million was repaid and the Company received an exit fee of approximately $109,000. Also during September 2004, the Mountain Valley note in the amount of approximately $6.3 million was repaid. 7 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2004 (Unaudited) NOTE 4 - REAL ESTATE OWNED The Company foreclosed on certain mortgage loans and notes receivable during 2003 and, as a result, owns the related real estate. Real estate owned at September 30, 2004 consisted of the following:
Carrying Number of Value Units Location (In thousands) --------- --------------- -------------- Real estate owned - held and used --------------------------------- Plaza at San Jacinto 132 La Porte, TX $ 7,648(1) ===== ======= Real estate owned - subject to sales ------------------------------------ contracts (2) (3) ----------------- Concord at Little York 276 Houston, TX $16,440 Concord at Gessner 288 Houston, TX 17,508 Concord at Gulfgate 288 Houston, TX 18,269 ----- ------- Total real estate owned - subject to sales contracts 852 $52,217 ===== ======= Real estate owned - held for sale (4) ------------------------------------- Reserve at Autumn Creek 212 Friendswood, TX $17,924 ===== =======
(1) Net of accumulated depreciation. (2) In connection with the proposed sales, the Company has entered into a letter of intent under which UBS Real Estate Investments, Inc. will provide first mortgages in the amount of approximately $42.0 to $44.0 million in these properties. The Company will restructure its remaining balance due from the borrower in the form of mezzanine loans. (3) Pledged as collateral under the warehouse facility (see Note 7). (4) Subject to first mortgage financing of approximately $16.0 million. NOTE 5 - INVESTMENTS IN MORTGAGE LOANS During September 2004, the Company funded a $4.6 million loan for the Pines Apartments, a 312-unit multifamily apartment complex located in Las Vegas, Nevada. The loan, which matures September 2007, bears interest at a rate of 30-day LIBOR plus 875 basis points per year. The Company received a loan origination fee of 1% in connection with this loan. During September 2004, the Company funded a $2.0 million loan for the Plaza at Sawmill Place, a 195,000 square-foot shopping center located in Columbus, Ohio. The loan, which matures October 2014, bears interest at a rate of 13.5% per year. Principal and interest payments are based on a 30-year amortization schedule with a 10-year balloon payout at maturity. 8 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2004 (Unaudited) During September 2004, the Mountain Valley mezzanine loan in the approximate amount of $776,000 was repaid along with the note receivable (See Note 3). The Company received exit fees totaling approximately $72,000 in connection with these loans. NOTE 6 - REPURCHASE FACILITIES The Company has repurchase facilities with three parties (the "Counterparties"), which have no expiration dates and offer advance rates between 94% and 97% of the fair market value of GNMA and FNMA DUS certificates and borrowing rates from 30-day LIBOR minus 3 basis points to 30-day LIBOR plus 10 basis points, which terms may change at the discretion of the Counterparties. The borrowings are typically subject to 30-day settlement terms and are subject to repricing at the option of the Counterparties. As of September 30, 2004, $144.6 million was outstanding under these repurchase facilities, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.16%. Certain of the Company's debt securities are pledged as collateral in connection with these repurchase facilities (see Note 2). A significant risk associated with these repurchase facilities is that the market value of the securities held by the Company may decline and that the Company would be required to post additional collateral and/or repay a portion of the facility. NOTE 7 - WAREHOUSE FACILITY In April 2004, as originally contemplated under the mortgage warehouse line of credit with Fleet National Bank (the "Warehouse Facility"), the time period on which to initially fund new projects using this Warehouse Facility expired. Remaining balances outstanding are due August 2005. In April 2004, the Company repaid the $4.6 million outstanding balance related to the Del Mar Villas loan. The Del Mar Villas note receivable is no longer pledged as collateral under any debt facility. During September 2004, the Baywoods note of approximately $11.0 million was repaid (see Note 3) and the Company repaid the related $8.5 million outstanding balance under this Warehouse Facility. During 2004, the Company posted three of its foreclosed properties as additional collateral to the Warehouse Facility (see Note 4). 9 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2004 (Unaudited) NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The costs incurred to related parties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 were as follows: (In thousands)

In June 2004, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") with CharterMac, an affiliated company and parent of the Company's Advisor, Related AMI, Inc. The Revolving Facility, which is an unsecured facility, will provide up to $20.0 million in borrowings to be used to purchase new investments, and bears interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 300 basis points. The Revolving Facility is for a term of one year with a one-year optional extension and contains customary restrictions/covenants that are similar to the Company's Warehouse Facility. In the opinion of management, the terms of this facility are consistent with those of transactions with independent third parties. As of September 30, 2004, the Company has borrowed approximately $15.4 million from the Revolving Facility to fund certain investments. NOTE 9 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was as follows: (In thousands)

NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS During October 2004, the Company purchased the Maple Street FNMA DUS certificate with a principal amount of $1.4 million. This certificate was purchased at a premium of approximately $58,000 and bears interest at a rate of 5.75% per year. In connection with the receipt of funds for the Mountain Valley notes in September 2004 (see Notes 3 and 5), the Company repaid the $5.3 million outstanding balance related to the Mountain Valley loan under the Warehouse Facility in October 2004. 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. Forward-Looking Statements -------------------------- Certain statements made in this report may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and its management and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among other things, the following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect the availability and creditworthiness of prospective tenants, lease rents and the terms and availability of financing; adverse changes in the real estate markets including, among other things, competition with other companies; risks of real estate development and acquisition; governmental actions and initiatives; and environment/safety requirements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Factors Affecting Comparability ------------------------------- In 2003, several loans went into default and the Company foreclosed upon and now owns the properties. In certain instances this required the Company to invest additional capital to acquire senior mortgage positions and subsequently foreclose its position to acquire the real estate securing the loans. As a result of the foreclosures, the Company now has a significant amount of real estate owned and mortgage loans payable on its balance sheet. This results in a reduction of certain interest income, the recognition of rental income and income from real estate owned, and the depreciation of one of the foreclosed properties, none of which were recorded in the first half of 2003 (See "Real Estate Owned" below). Results of Operations --------------------- The following is a summary of the Company's operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003: (In thousands)
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, -------------------------------- ------------------------------ 2004 2003 Change 2004 2003 Change ------- ------- ------ ------- ------- ------- Total revenues $ 4,155 $ 3,559 16.7% $11,806 $11,033 7.0% Total expenses 2,339 1,434 63.1 6,680 4,013 66.5 Total other income 1,433 651 120.1 4,798 1,522 215.2 ------- ------- ------ ------- ------- ------- Net income $ 3,249 $ 2,776 17.0% $ 9,924 $ 8,542 16.2% ======= ======= ====== ======= ======= =======
In both the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the same 2003 periods, revenues and other income have increased mainly due to an increase in fundings of GNMA certificates and revenues generated by foreclosed properties. Expenses have also increased for these periods due to an increase in expenses related to the foreclosed properties as well as higher interest costs. 12 REVENUES
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30 September 30 % Change from % Change from Prior Year Prior Year ------------------ ----------------- Interest income Debt securities 2.6% 15.3% Mortgage loans (5.7) (45.5) Notes receivable (3.1) (21.9) Revenue bonds 100.0 100.0 Temporary investments (67.6) (38.5) Rental income 100.0 100.0 Other income 1015.8 288.1 ------ ----- Total revenues 16.7% 7.0% ====== =====
At September 30, 2004, the Company had approximately $165.3 million in investments in debt securities yielding a weighted average interest rate of 6.64% per year, approximately $22.0 million in investments in notes receivable yielding a weighted average interest rate of 8.90% per year, and approximately $26.2 million in mortgage loans and other investments yielding a weighted average interest rate of 10.86% per year. Interest income from debt securities increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to the continued advances on the Ellington Plaza GNMA certificate and the purchase of 15 FNMA DUS certificates during 2003, partially offset by the repayment of the Autumn Creek GNMA certificate. Interest income from mortgage loans decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to the receipt of additional interest and incremental interest due upon repayment of the Stonybrook II first mortgage and mezzanine loan in 2003, with no comparable items in 2004. Interest income from notes receivable decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to the default of required debt service payments from foreclosed properties (See "Real Estate Owned" below). Interest income from revenue bonds relates to taxable revenue bonds purchased in October 2003. These bonds carry a weighted average interest rate of 8.69% per year. Rental income was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 due to the reclassification of the Plaza at San Jacinto as real estate owned - held and used (see "Real Estate Owned" below). Other income increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to exit fees received from the repayment of the Baywoods and Mountain Valley loans during the third quarter of 2004. 13 EXPENSES
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30 September 30 % Change from % Change from Prior Year Prior Year ------------- ----------------- Interest 51.9% 59.6% General and administrative 144.7 75.9 Fees to Advisor 32.1 30.4 Property operations 100.0 100.0 Depreciation 100.0 100.0 Amortization and other (54.5) (21.1) ------------- ----------------- Total expenses 63.1% 66.5% ============= =================
At September 30, 2004, the Company had total debt of approximately $198.8 million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.1% per year. At September 30, 2003, the Company had total debt of approximately $161.2 million with a weighted average interest rate of 1.8% per year. Interest expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to the increased borrowings stemming from the increased investment base. This increase can also be attributed to an interest rate swap agreement, put into place in April 2003, and increasing interest rates during 2004. General and administrative expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, primarily due to the increase in legal fees related to foreclosed properties, the increase in accounting fees related to Sarbanes-Oxley consulting services, and the increase of certain other administrative costs. Property operations were recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 due to the reclassification of the Plaza at San Jacinto as real estate owned - held and used (see "Real Estate Owned" below). Depreciation expense was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 relating to the reclassification of the Plaza at San Jacinto property from real estate-held for sale to real estate owned-held and used. Depreciation was captured for the 2004 periods, as well as retroactively for the full year that the property was classified as held for sale (see "Real Estate Owned" below). OTHER INCOME Other income increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 2003, due to the increase in net operating income recognized from the operations of foreclosed properties (see "Real Estate Owned" below). REAL ESTATE OWNED During 2003, five loans went into default and the Company foreclosed upon and took ownership of the properties. The Company reclassified its investment in these foreclosed properties as real estate-held for sale on its balance sheet 14 and recognized income from the operations of these properties as income from real estate owned on its income statement. As a result of these unusual circumstances, there was a substantial decrease in interest income from these loans. During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company sold three of the properties. In order to expedite the closings, the Company provided 100% financing to the buyer, via a bridge loan, which matures in April 2005. The Company receives 100% of the properties' cash flow until permanent financing is in place. Due to the fact that the Company provided 100% financing to the buyer, these transactions did not constitute a sale in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, the Company continues to classify the properties as real estate owned on the balance sheet. During the third quarter of 2004, the Company has signed a letter of intent under which UBS Real Estate Investments, Inc. will provide first mortgages in the amount of approximately $42.0 to $44.0 million for these properties. The Company will restructure its remaining balance due from the borrower in the form of mezzanine loans. The financing is anticipated to occur partially in the fourth quarter of 2004, with the balance occurring in the first quarter of 2005. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company reclassified one of the unsold properties as real estate owned for operations. As a result, the Company has begun to depreciate the property in 2004, as well as retroactively for the full year that the property was classified as held for sale. The Company also recognizes the property's rental income and operational expenses in separate line items on the income statement. The Company has focused on increasing the occupancy level and operating income of all of the properties owned to projected stabilization levels. The weighted average occupancy rate on the stabilized properties at the time of foreclosure was 81.4%. The weighted average occupancy rate on these same properties at September 30, 2004 was 97.1%. As a result, the Company has experienced increasing yields on several of its foreclosed assets. While property level operations continue to improve, the Company is actively seeking to sell or refinance the properties with third parties so that the Company can redeploy the capital invested into higher yielding investments. OTHER ITEMS The loss on the repayment of debt securities in 2003 related to the write-off of a purchase premium upon repayment of a GNMA certificate. Funds from Operations --------------------- Funds from operations ("FFO"), represents net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, excluding depreciation and amortization related to real property and including funds from operations for unconsolidated joint ventures calculated on the same basis. FFO is calculated in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a supplemental measure of operating performance, and, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities, and investing activities, it provides investors with an indication of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures, and to fund other cash needs. 15 FFO is summarized in the following table: (In thousands)
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 September 30, 2004 ------------------ ------------------ Net income $ 3,249 $ 9,924 Add back: depreciation of real property 59 367 -------- --------- FFO $ 3,308 $ 10,291 ======== ========= Cash flows from: Operating activities $ 3,765 $ 10,349 ======== ========= Investing activities $ 3,113 $ 11,796 ======== ========= Financing activities $ 3,101 $ (11,738) ======== ========= Weighted average shares outstanding: Basic 8,336 8,337 ======== ========= Diluted 8,336 8,341 ======== =========
For the 2003 periods, FFO was equal to net income, as the Company did not record depreciation expense on any of its real estate owned. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- SOURCES OF FUNDS The Company expects that cash generated from its investments, as well as its borrowing capacity, will meet its needs for short-term liquidity and will be sufficient to pay all expenses and distributions to its shareholders in amounts sufficient to retain the Company's REIT status in the foreseeable future. In order to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, the Company must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of its taxable income. The Company believes that it is in compliance with the REIT-related provisions of the Code. The Company finances its investing activity primarily through borrowing from its various facilities at short-term rates. At September 30, 2004, the Company had approximately $13.6 million available to borrow under its debt facilities without exceeding limits imposed by debt covenants and its declaration of trust. From time to time, the Company may also issue common shares or other equity to fund its investing activity. In April 2003, the Company completed a public offering of 1,955,000 common shares for net proceeds of approximately $27.5 million, which were used to fund investments. The Company has the capacity to raise approximately $170.0 million of additional funds by issuing either common or preferred shares pursuant to a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in 2002. If market conditions warrant, the Company may seek to raise additional funds for investment through further offerings, although the timing and amount of such offerings cannot be determined at this time. 16 Additionally, the refinancing of the Concord Properties (see Note 4) could generate approximately $40.0 million of proceeds, of which approximately $14.0 million would be used to repay the amount borrowed from the Warehouse Facility to purchase the Gulfgate first mortgage. In accordance with the Declaration of Trust, the Company is required to maintain at least 40% of its investments in government-insured or guaranteed investments. At September 30, 2004, the Company owned approximately $165.3 million in GNMA and FNMA certificates, representing approximately 50.7% of the Company's assets. SUMMARY OF CASH FLOWS During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the net change in cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $11.0 million. Operating cash flows improved by $2.1 million primarily due to higher earnings and favorable variances in timing of receivables collected. An increase in net cash provided by investing activities (approximately $104.3 million) offset by a decrease in net cash used in financing activities (approximately $95.3 million) was due to a higher level of investing activity in debt securities, mortgage loans, and mezzanine and bridge loans during the 2003 period. The lower level of investing in 2004 corresponded to the decrease in net borrowings. OTHER Management is not aware of any trends or events, commitments or uncertainties, which have not otherwise been disclosed that will or are likely to impact liquidity in a material way. Distributions ------------- Of the total distributions of $10.0 million and $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, $79,547 ($0.01 per share or 0.80%) and $674,491 ($0.09 per share or 7.32%), represented a return of capital determined in accordance with GAAP. As of September 30, 2004, the aggregate amount of distributions made since the initial public offering representing returns of capital, in accordance with GAAP, was $15.2 million. The portion of the distributions which constituted a return of capital was significant during the Company's initial acquisition stage in order to maintain level distributions to shareholders during that period. Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements ------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 contains a summary of the Company's guarantees and off-balance arrangements. There have been no material changes to these items since December 31, 2003. The Company has no unconsolidated subsidiaries, special purpose off-balance sheet financing entities, or other off-balance sheet arrangements. 17 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS In conducting business, the Company enters into various contractual obligations. Details of these obligations, including expected settlement periods, are contained below. Payments Due by Period (In thousands)

(1) Represents contractual maturity of mortgage loan on real estate owned. However, it is the Company's intention to find a buyer for the property. CONTINGENT OBLIGATIONS Stabilization Guarantees ------------------------ The Company's stabilization loan guarantee on Village at Meadowbend has expired during the fourth quarter of 2004. The Company's stabilization loan guarantee on Colorado Creekside Apartments expired in October 2004. The project is currently seeking permanent financing on the property. In the event that the property does not obtain financing, the Company may be called upon to fund this loan, in the approximate amount of $7.5 million, which would result in an investment on the Company's books. The outcome of any possible fundings cannot be determined by the Company as of the filing date of this document. 18 Inflation Inflation did not have a material effect on the Company's results for the periods presented. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk, which is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond the control of the Company. INTEREST RATE RISK Interest rate fluctuations can adversely affect the Company's income in many ways and present a variety of risks, including the risk of mismatch between asset yields and borrowing rates. The Company's operating results depend in large part on differences between the income from its assets (net of credit losses) and its borrowing costs. Most of the Company's assets generate fixed returns and have terms in excess of five years. The Company funds the origination and acquisition of a significant portion of these assets with borrowings that have interest rates that reset relatively rapidly, such as monthly or quarterly. In most cases, the income from assets will respond more slowly to interest rate fluctuations than the cost of borrowings, creating a mismatch between asset yields and borrowing rates. Consequently, changes in interest rates, particularly short-term interest rates, may influence the Company's net income. The Company's borrowings bear interest at rates that fluctuate with 30-day LIBOR. Various financial vehicles exist which would allow Company management to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the Company's cash flows and earnings. During March 2003, upon management's analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies, the Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement with Fleet National Bank ("Fleet") in order to hedge against increases in the floating interest rate on its Repurchase Facilities. The Company has agreed to pay Fleet a fixed 3.48% on a notional amount of $30.0 million, and in return, Fleet will pay the Company a floating rate equivalent to the 30-day LIBOR rate on the same notional amount. A possible risk of such swap agreements is the possible inability of Fleet to meet the terms of the contracts with the Company; however, there is no current indication of such an inability. Based on the $152.8 million unhedged portion of the $182.8 million of borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2004, a 1% change in LIBOR would impact the Company's annual net income and cash flows by approximately $1.5 million. However, as the interest income from loans made by the Company is also based on LIBOR, a 1% increase in LIBOR would increase the Company's annual net income and cash flows from such loans by approximately $88,000. Increases in these rates would decrease the net income and market value of the Company's net assets. Interest rate fluctuations that result in interest expense exceeding interest income would result in operating losses. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. 19 (b) INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING. There have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 20 PART II.
