See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 6 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Mortgage Acceptance Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless otherwise indicated, we herein refer to American Mortgage Acceptance Company and its subsidiaries as "AMAC", "we", "us", "our", and "our Company". We are externally managed by Related AMI Associates, Inc., which acts as our Advisor. We operate in one business segment. In March 2005, we formed AMAC Capital Financing I ("ACFI"), a wholly owned trust, for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities, which are subject to mandatory repurchase in March 2035 and are callable in March 2010 (see Note 8). The condensed 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 our financial position as of September 30, 2005, and the results of our operations and our 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 our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, contains a summary of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to these items since December 31, 2004; however, we have entered into a transaction during 2005 which involves a new significant accounting policy (see Note 8). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us 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, in particular, the reclassification of results of operations of our real estate owned - held and used portfolio. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES - AVAILABLE FOR SALE During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we purchased seven Fannie Mae ("FNMA") certificates with principal amounts totaling approximately $38.2 million. The certificates were purchased at premiums totaling approximately $119,000 with a weighted average maturity date of February 2014 and bear interest at a weighted average rate of 5.56%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we funded approximately $2.2 million on debt securities originated prior to December 31, 2004. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, three Ginnie Mae ("GNMA") and FNMA certificates were repaid, one prior to the maturity date. We received approximately $10.8 million in proceeds, of which, $5.2 million related to penalties and fees resulting from the prepayment, which are classified as "fees related to prepayment of investments" on the condensed consolidated statement of income. The principal balance on the prepaid GNMA certificate (approximately $21.4 million) was received in October 2005, and is classified in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet of September 30, 2005. These pay-downs also resulted in write-offs of unamortized discounts and premiums of approximately $183,000, which are classified as a net gain on 7 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) repayment of debt securities on our condensed consolidated statement of income (see also Note 3 regarding the prepayment of an associated mezzanine loan). In July 2005, we received an executed letter of intent to purchase a defaulted GNMA certificate and mezzanine loan at par plus any accrued interest through the date of the letter. As such, we have recognized approximately $201,000 in previously unrecorded, unpaid interest relating to the mezzanine loan. We are currently in negotiations to finalize this sale. Information regarding our investments in debt securities is as follows:
(In thousands) September 30, December 31, 2005 2004 ------------- ------------ Amortized cost $ 196,591 $ 184,576 Unrealized gains 7,201 11,370 Unrealized losses (854) (1,359) --------- --------- Net unrealized gain 6,347 10,011 --------- --------- Fair value $ 202,938 $ 194,587 ========= =========
The fair value and gross unrealized losses of our debt securities aggregated by length of time that these individual debt securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, is summarized in the table below:
(Dollars in thousands) September 30, 2005 December 31, 2004 ---------------------------------- --------------------------------- Fewer than 12 Months Fewer than 12 Months 12 Months or More Total 12 Months or More Total ---------- --------- --------- ---------- --------- --------- Number of securities 7 5 12 11 7 18 Fair value $35,746 $11,873 $47,619 $46,055 $16,832 $62,887 Gross unrealized loss $ 208 $ 646 $ 854 $ 515 $ 844 $ 1,359
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, we have the intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity, or at least until interest rates change such that the fair value is no longer less than book value. Accordingly, we have concluded that these impairments are temporary. At September 30, 2005, all of our debt securities were partially or wholly pledged as collateral under our repurchase facilities. At September 30, 2005, we had no availability to borrow against partially or unpledged debt securities. 8 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN MORTGAGE LOANS During May 2005, we were called upon to fund a $7.5 million first mortgage in connection with a loan stabilization guarantee (see Note 12). The loan, which we expect to be repaid when permanent financing is arranged, bears interest at a rate of 10.82% per year. During 2005, we originated the following mezzanine loans:
(In thousands) Amount funded through Minimum Amount September 30, interest Maturity Month committed 2005 Secured by Rate rate date ------------ --------- ------------ ----------------- ---------------- -------- ---------- May $ 7,300 $ 3,604 Land parcel 20% N/A Apr 2007 May 8,350 8,350 Multi-family housing LIBOR + 12.75% 16% Dec 2007 June 3,250 3,250 Shopping center 10.25% N/A Jun 2015 July 7,500 6,460 Multi-family housing LIBOR + 11.50% 15% Aug 2007 July 2,800 2,329 Multi-family housing LIBOR + 12.75% 16% Aug 2007 September 5,800 5,000 Land parcel LIBOR + 12.50% 16% Sept 2006 --------- --------- Totals $ 35,000 $ 28,993 ========= =========
During 2005, we also funded approximately $379,000 on existing loans originated prior to December 31, 2004. During September 2005, one mezzanine loan paid off prior to the maturity date. We received approximately $3.0 million, which includes approximately $144,000 in prepayment penalties and fees (see also Note 2 regarding the prepayment of an associated debt security). During September 2005, we sold a mortgage loan to CharterMac, a related party. During October 2005, we received approximately $1.6 million, representing the par value plus unpaid accrued interest up to the date of the sale. This total amount is classified in accounts receivable on the September 30, 2005, condensed consolidated balance sheet. NOTE 4 - NOTES RECEIVABLE During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, several notes receivable have partially or fully repaid. We have received a total of approximately $9.9 million in proceeds relating to repayments of these notes with no gains or losses realized. 9 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 5 - REAL ESTATE OWNED Our real estate owned at September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, consisted of the following:

(1) During February 2005, the Plaza at San Jacinto property was sold to an unaffiliated third party. We received approximately $7.4 million in proceeds from the sale, which approximated the property's carrying value. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recorded. (2) During February 2005, we purchased the first mortgage on the Reserve at Autumn Creek property at a foreclosure auction for approximately $17.2 million. 10 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 6 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable consisted of:
(In thousands) September 30, December 31, 2005 2004 ------------ ----------- GNMA prepayment proceeds (see Note 2) $21,431 $ -- Interest and other 2,847 1,925 Sale proceeds due from related party (see Note 3) (1) 1,479 -- ------- ------- $25,757 $ 1,925 ======= =======
(1) Excludes interest and other costs receivable of approximately $75,000, which is included in "interest and other". NOTE 7 - REPURCHASE FACILITIES During June 2005, we executed a new repurchase agreement with UBS Financial Services, which offers us an advance rate of 97% and a borrowing rate set at 30-day LIBOR. The borrowings are subject to 30-day settlement terms. We transferred ten FNMA and GNMA certificates previously held as collateral on our RBC repurchase facility to this facility, and the amount outstanding under this facility at September 30, 2005, was approximately $50.8 million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.79%. NOTE 8 - SUBSIDIARY EQUITY During March 2005, ACFI issued 25,000 Floating Rate Preferred Securities, having a stated liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. We received approximately $24.2 million in proceeds, net of closing costs, which are deferred and will be amortized ratably over a 30-year period to the redemption date. The securities are callable in March 2010 and bear interest, re-set quarterly, equal to 30-day LIBOR plus 3.75%. At September 30, 2005, the rate was 7.24%. SFAS No. 150, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITY, requires that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments be classified as liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the payments or accruals of dividends and other amounts to be paid to the holders of these securities be reported as interest costs. Due to the mandatory redemption feature, we have classified these securities as liabilities and recorded and carry them at fair value. 11 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 9 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The costs paid or payable to our Advisor for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, were as follows:

* Accrual based on proportion of actual earnings as compared to our estimates of full-year results. In June 2004, we entered into a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") with CharterMac, an affiliated company and parent of our Advisor. The Revolving Facility, which is unsecured, provides up to $20.0 million in borrowings to purchase new investments. As of September 30, 2005, we had no outstanding borrowings on this facility. At December 31, 2004, we had $4.6 million in borrowings outstanding on this facility at an interest rate of 5.42%. This facility expires in June 2006, pursuant to a one year extension. In September 2005, we sold one mortgage loan, at par, to CharterMac (see Notes 3 and 6). NOTE 10 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, was as follows:

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES a) Legal On October 27, 2003, prior to taking possession of the real estate collateral supporting a loan investment, we were named in a lawsuit, Concord Gulfgate, Ltd. vs. Robert Parker, Sunrise Housing Ltd., and American Mortgage Acceptance Company, Cause No. 2003-59290 in the 133rd Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas. The suit alleges that the loan transaction was not properly authorized by the partnership and was not for a legitimate partnership purpose. The suit claims, among other causes of action against the respective defendants, wrongful foreclosure of the real estate collateral, tortious interference with contract and civil conspiracy. The suit seeks, among other relief, actual, consequential, and exemplary damages, and a declaration that the loan documents are unenforceable and constitute a cloud on title. The discovery phase of this suit has been completed. A summary judgment was filed by us, but was denied on July 25, 2005. It is not known when the case will be called to trial. We filed a countersuit on November 25, 2003, against Concord Gulfgate, Ltd., as guarantor, seeking a deficiency on the loan, and recovery of unpaid taxes and certain property receipts. We are currently unable to determine the possible outcome of the litigation. 13 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) b) Guarantees In June and October of 2000, we originated two loans totaling $3.3 million under an agreement with Fannie Mae that provided for our guaranteeing a first-loss position on the loans. In September 2003, we transferred and assigned all of our obligations with respect to the two loans we originated under this program to CharterMac Mortgage Capital Corporation ("CMC"), a subsidiary of CharterMac, both of which are affiliates of our Advisor. Pursuant to the agreement with CMC, CharterMac guaranteed CMC's obligations under the loans, and we agreed to indemnify both CMC and CharterMac for any losses incurred in exchange for retaining all fees which we were otherwise entitled to receive under the program. While provisions of this agreement could potentially result in exposure of up to $7.5 million, the maximum exposure at September 30, 2005, was $3.2 million, and we expect that we will not be called upon to fund these guarantees. In the first quarter of 2003, we discontinued our loan program with Fannie Mae and will issue no further guarantees pursuant to such program. For these guarantees, we monitor the status of the underlying properties and evaluate our exposure under the guarantees. To date, we have concluded that no accrual for probable losses is required under SFAS No. 5, ACCOUNTING FOR CONTINGENCIES. Standby and Forward Loan Commitments ------------------------------------ We issued the following standby and forward bridge and permanent loan commitments for the purpose of funding construction/rehabilitation of certain multifamily apartment complexes in various locations.

The commitment expired unused in April 2005, and we recognized a commitment fee of approximately $412,000, net of related legal expenses, upon the expiration. Loan Stabilization Guarantees ----------------------------- In accordance with an agreement entered into in 2002 with Wachovia Bank ("Wachovia") to provide stabilization guarantees for new construction of multifamily properties, we were called upon to fund the last guarantee made under the program. In May 2005, we funded a $7.5 million loan secured by multifamily housing (see Note 3). 14 AMERICAN MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 13 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS During October 2005, we borrowed $8.0 million from our line of credit with CharterMac to repay a portion of our repurchase facility. This repayment resulted from a GNMA certificate that was repaid in September 2005 (see Note 2). Subsequently, we received the principal proceeds from the GNMA repayment and repaid the full amount outstanding on our line of credit with CharterMac. On November 8, 2005, Stuart J. Boesky, announced that he will step down from his positions as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Chief Executive Officer and President, effective November 15, 2005. Mr. Boesky will serve as a consultant to CharterMac, the parent of our Advisor, for a period of one year, and his consulting contract may be terminated by either party. In the interim, the Board of Trustees has appointed Jeff T. Blau, a trustee of CharterMac, as interim Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board has also appointed Marc D. Schnitzer, the President of CharterMac, as our President. 15 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 and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of us and our management (which includes our Advisor) and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors, which are outlined in detail in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, include the following: o Risks of investing in uninsured and non-investment grade mortgage assets and subordinated CMBS; o Competition in acquiring desirable investments; o Interest rate fluctuations and changes in prepayment rates which may affect the value of our assets; o Risks associated with investments in real estate generally and the properties which secure many of our investments; o General economic conditions, particularly as they affect the value of our assets and the credit status of our borrowers; o Dependence on our external Advisor for all services vital to our operations; o Conflicts which may arise among us and other entities affiliated with our Advisor which have similar investment policies to ours; and o Risks associated with the repurchase agreements we utilize to finance our investments and the availability of financing generally. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this quarterly report. Factors Affecting Comparability ------------------------------- During 2004, we owned several properties through foreclosure, classified as Real Estate Owned - Held and Used, -Subject to Sales Contracts and - Held for Sale. As a result of certain circumstances during 2004, we reclassified some of these assets from Held for Sale to Held and Used, resulting in greater depreciation expenses and recognition of property level mortgage interest in the current year (see "Real Estate Owned" below). During March 2005, we issued $25.0 million of Floating Rate Preferred Securities through a subsidiary. Due to the mandatory redemption feature of these securities, the payments or accruals of dividends and other amounts to be paid to the holders of these securities are reported as interest costs. As a result, these interest costs are classified as Interest - Distributions to Preferred Shareholders of Subsidiary (Subject to Mandatory Repurchase). There were no such interest costs in prior, comparable periods. During September 2005, the GNMA certificate and mezzanine loan investments relating to one property were paid off prior to the maturity date. This pay off resulted in significantly higher levels of fees earned and gain on redemption. As a large portion of these proceeds were retained by GNMA until the normal clearing date in October 2005, we also had higher levels of accounts receivable at September 30, 2005. 16 Results of Operations --------------------- The following is a summary of our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004:
(In thousands) Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, --------------------------------- -------------------------------- 2005 2004 Change 2005 2004 Change -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Total revenues $ 12,766 $ 5,765 121.4% $ 26,367 $ 16,683 58.0% Total expenses 6,711 3,116 115.4 16,166 8,559 88.9 Total other income 1,257 600 109.5 3,007 1,800 67.1 -------- -------- ----- -------- -------- ---- Net income $ 7,312 $ 3,249 125.1% $ 13,208 $ 9,924 33.1% ======== ======== ===== ======== ======== ====
In both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the same periods in 2004, revenues increased mainly due to fees received as a result of early pay-off of investments, the purchases of new FNMA certificates and the funding of several new mezzanine loans. Expenses have also increased for these periods due to the recognition of mortgage interest costs for Real Estate Owned, financing costs (particularly due to higher interest rates), and advisory costs due to expected profits. Other income has increased due to the recognition of income relating to Real Estate Owned - Held For Sale, as well as the recognition of a gain resulting from the early paydown of a GNMA certificate.

At September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, we had the following investments:
As of As of September 30, 2005 December 31, 2004 ---------------------------- ------------------------------ Weighted Weighted Carrying Average Carrying Average Amount Interest Rate Amount Interest Rate ----------- ------------- ----------- -------------- Debt securities $ 202,938 6.16% $ 194,587 6.47% Mortgage loans $ 54,052 14.46% $ 21,376 11.68% Notes receivable $ 13,725 9.49% $ 23,111 9.43% Revenue bonds $ 6,559 8.69% $ 6,672 8.69%
17 Interest income from debt securities increased, primarily due to the continued advances on an existing GNMA certificate and the purchase of eight new FNMA certificates during the fourth quarter of 2004 and seven new FNMA certificates during 2005, partially offset by the repayment of two GNMA certificates. The decrease in the weighted average interest rate on debt securities as of September 30, 2005, as compared to December 31, 2004, was primarily due to the rising interest rates on mortgage loans; as mortgage interest rates rise, interest rates on debt securities tend to decrease. Interest income from mortgage loans increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, primarily due to the funding of three mezzanine loans during the second half of 2004 and the funding of six mezzanine loans during the second and third quarters of 2005. We also funded a loan pursuant to a guarantee during the second quarter of 2005 (see Note 12). The increase in the weighted average interest rates on mortgage loans as of September 30, 2005, as compared to December 31, 2004, was primarily due to the increase in market interest rates. Interest income from notes receivable decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, primarily due to the payoff of several notes in 2004 and 2005, partially offset by the funding of a new note receivable. Fees related to prepayment of assets increased primarily due to the recognition of fees relating to an early payoff of a GNMA certificate and a mezzanine loan during the third quarter of 2005. Other revenues increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, primarily due to the recognition of a commitment fee and a non-refundable due diligence fee during 2005. No such fees were recorded in 2004. Rental income decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, due to the Plaza at San Jacinto sale in February 2005.
EXPENSES Three Months Nine Months Ended Ended September 30, 2005 September 30, 2005 % Change from % Change from Prior Year Prior Year ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Interest 84.0% 74.5% Distributions to preferred shareholders 100.0 100.0 General and administrative 63.4 49.1 Fees to Advisor 208.4 84.1 Amortization and other 23.6 13.2 ---------- --------- Subtotal 137.4 86.8 Property operations (17.2) 2.7 Depreciation 469.5 182.8 Mortgage interest for real estate owned - held and used 100.0 100.0 ---------- --------- Total expenses 115.4% 88.9% ========== =========
At September 30, 2005, excluding mortgages on real estate owned, we had total debt of approximately $243.7 million with a weighted average interest rate of 4.14% per year, including the effect of our swap agreement. At September 30, 2004, we had a comparable balance of approximately $182.8 million with a weighted average interest rate of 2.64% per year. The increase in the weighted average interest rate is due to steady increases in market interest rates during 2004 and 2005. Interest expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, primarily due to the increased borrowings on the repurchase facilities stemming from an increased investment base and the increase in interest rates during 2004 and 2005. 18 Distributions to preferred shareholders were recorded following the issuance of the securities in March 2005. There were no such securities outstanding during 2004. General and administrative expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, primarily due to an increase in legal fees related to foreclosed properties, an increase in accounting fees related to Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, and an increase in excise taxes due to undistributed taxable income. Fees to Advisor increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, due to incentive management fees relating to the increase in 2005 earnings. In addition, we incurred higher overhead costs and asset management fees because of expansion of our business and an increased asset base. Property operations represent all non-interest costs at the property level on all of our Real Estate Owned - Held and Used properties. Mortgage interest for Real Estate Owned - Held and Used increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, due to debt service costs associated with a $41.0 million mortgage on the Concord Portfolio (see "Real Estate Owned" below). Depreciation expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, due to a higher base of depreciable real estate owned in 2005 as compared to the 2004 period. In 2004, only the Plaza at San Jacinto property was depreciated. In 2005, the Concord Portfolio is depreciating, partially offset by the removal of Plaza at San Jacinto upon its sale. OTHER INCOME Other income increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to 2004, due to purchase of the Autumn Creek mortgage, resulting in the recording of property operations from Real Estate Owned - Held For Sale (see "Real Estate Owned" below). REAL ESTATE OWNED During 2004, we reclassified some of our investments in foreclosed properties as Real Estate Owned - Held for Sale on our balance sheet and recognized income from the operations of these properties. As a result of these circumstances, we have reclassified certain prior year amounts relating to the income recognition of our real estate owned portfolio to conform to current year presentation. During the time we have owned the real estate, certain circumstances have occurred that warranted the reclassification of most of these assets. The following is the September 30, 2005 classification of our real estate owned portfolio: o REAL ESTATE OWNED - HELD AND USED During 2004, we had three properties classified as Real Estate Owned - Subject to Sales Contracts, as the sale of these properties did not constitute a sale in accordance with GAAP. After the properties were refinanced during December 2004, we reclassified these properties on our balance sheet as Real Estate Owned - Held and Used; we recorded depreciation on the properties in 2004, as well as retroactively for the period since foreclosure. We recognized income associated with the properties as income from real estate owned on the income statement up to the date of refinancing. Subsequently, we recognize income associated with a $12.8 million mezzanine loan (our remaining economic interest in the properties) as rental income, property operations and mortgage interest on Real Estate Owned - Held and Used on the income statement. During 2005, we sold the Plaza at San Jacinto property to an unaffiliated third party for approximately its carrying value. o REAL ESTATE OWNED - HELD FOR SALE One remaining property in our real estate owned portfolio, Reserve at Autumn Creek, will continue to remain as Real Estate Owned - Held for Sale as we continue to market the real estate. We have changed the marketing strategy of this asset in order to reflect marketplace behavior. 19 IMPACT OF HURRICANES DURING THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 During the third quarter of 2005, two hurricanes struck the Gulf Coast region of the United States. Six of our investments, secured by properties in Texas, were affected by Hurricane Rita. The damage to these properties was minor and therefore it is expected that we have no financial exposure in this matter. There were no properties affected by Hurricane Katrina or by Hurricane Wilma, which occurred subsequent to September 30, 2005. 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. Our 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 our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures, and to fund other cash needs. The following table reconciles net income to FFO:
Three months ended Nine months ended (In thousands) September 30, September 30, ---------------------- ---------------------- 2005 2004 2005 2004 -------- -------- -------- -------- Net income $ 7,312 $ 3,249 $ 13,208 $ 9,924 Add back: depreciation of real property $ 336 $ 59 $ 1,038 $ 367 -------- -------- -------- -------- FFO $ 7,648 $ 3,308 $ 14,246 $ 10,291 ======== ======== ======== ======== Cash flows from: Operating activities $ 8,547 $ 3,765 $ 15,051 $ 10,349 ======== ======== ======== ======== Investing activities $(10,619) $ 3,113 $(67,257) $ 11,796 ======== ======== ======== ======== Financing activities $ 10,182 $ 3,101 $ 66,491 $(11,738) ======== ======== ======== ======== Weighted average shares outstanding: Basic 8,311 8,336 8,320 8,337 ======== ======== ======== ======== Diluted 8,314 8,336 8,323 8,341 ======== ======== ======== ========
Since not all companies calculate FFO in a similar fashion, our calculation presented above may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- SOURCES OF FUNDS We expect that cash generated from our investments, as well as our borrowing capacity, will meet our needs for short-term liquidity and will be sufficient to pay all expenses and distributions to our shareholders in amounts sufficient to retain our Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") status in the foreseeable future. We also believe we have the capacity and the ability to fund our long term growth through equity issuances, debt offerings and other funding vehicles. In order to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), as amended, we must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of our taxable income. We believe that we are in compliance with the REIT-related provisions of the Code. We finance our investing activity primarily through borrowing from various facilities at short-term rates. At September 30, 2005, we had approximately $20.0 million available to borrow, contractually, under our debt facilities without exceeding limits imposed by debt covenants and our by-laws. 20 In August 2005, our warehouse facility matured. Although we can no longer originate new loans on this facility, two existing loans were extended through February 2006. We are currently in negotiations with several financial institutions to replace this facility with others in the near term. From time to time, we may also issue common shares or other equity to fund investing activity. During 2005, our subsidiary issued $25.0 million of variable rate Preferred Securities. The proceeds received were used to purchase FNMA certificates. We have 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 SEC in 2002. If market conditions warrant, we 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. We are currently exploring further expansion of our investment platform through the use of Collateralized Debt Obligations ("CDOs"). A real estate CDO is a capital markets transaction in which the holder of various forms of real estate debt instruments finances those assets by selling bonds backed by the assets. The assets can be floating or fixed rate, and may include first mortgages, subordinate participations in first mortgages, bridge loans, mezzanine loans, CMBS, and trust preferred stock. The assets would be aggregated on our balance sheet and would later be securitized. The CDO execution would enable us to lower our cost of capital significantly, which in turn would make us more competitive in the mezzanine lending marketplace. It is anticipated that our origination activity would begin to increase in the fourth quarter 2005 and we would access the securitization market in the first quarter of 2006, although there are no assurances that we will proceed with such a program. SUMMARY OF CASH FLOWS During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the net change in cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $3.9 million. Operating cash flows increased by approximately $4.7 million primarily due to higher earnings and the timing of collections of receivables. Earnings increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 due to fees received from an early paydown of a GNMA security and mezzanine loan. An increase in net cash used in investing activities (approximately $79.1 million) offset by an increase in net cash provided by financing activities (approximately $78.2 million) was due to a higher level of investing activity in debt securities and mortgage loans, and the purchase of a mortgage loan on real estate owned during the 2005 period. The investing activity was funded through borrowings from our repurchase facilities and through the issuance of preferred shares. OTHER During November 2005, distributions of approximately $3.3 million ($0.40 per share) will be paid to common shareholders, which were declared in September 2005, and special distributions of approximately $2.5 million ($0.30 per share) will be paid, which were declared in October 2005. The special distribution relates to the earnings realized in the third quarter from fees received from the early repayment of a GNMA security and mezzanine loan and is to be made in accordance with REIT provisions. In addition, we expect to purchase an interest in revenue bonds from CharterMac for approximately $18.8 million during November 2005. We are 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 made (approximately $10.0 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004), none were determined to be returns of capital in 2005, while in 2004, approximately $80,000 ($0.01 per share or 0.80%) represented a return of capital determined in accordance with GAAP. As of September 30, 2005, the aggregate amount of distributions made since the initial public offering representing returns of capital in accordance with GAAP was approximately $14.0 million. The portion of the distributions which constituted 21 a return of capital was more significant in our initial years in order to permit us to maintain level distributions to shareholders while we were in the process of investing the proceeds from our initial public offering. Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements ------------------------------------------------------------- See Note 12 of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a complete summary of our guarantees and commitments and contingencies. We have no unconsolidated subsidiaries, special purpose off-balance sheet financing entities, or other off-balance sheet arrangements. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS In conducting business, we enter into various contractual obligations. Details of these obligations, including expected settlement periods, are contained below.

(1) Represents a first mortgage on properties we report as Real Estate Owned - Held and Used (Concord Portfolio) as a sale of the properties did not meet the criteria for sale recognition in accordance with GAAP. The first mortgage loan is non-recourse with respect to AMAC, the debt service is paid from the cash flows of the properties and we will not be required to satisfy the obligation. (See Note 5). Inflation --------- Inflation did not have a material effect on our results for the periods presented. Subsequent Event ---------------- Refer to Note 13 of the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to the resignation of our Chief Executive Officer. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates 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 our income in many ways and present a variety of risks, including the risk of mismatch between asset yields and borrowing rates. Our operating results depend in large part on differences between the income from our assets (net of credit losses) and our borrowing costs. Although we are increasing our originations of variable rate loans, most of our assets generate fixed returns and have terms in excess of five years. We fund the origination and acquisition of a significant portion of our assets with borrowings which have variable interest rates that reset relatively rapidly, such as monthly or 22 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 our net income. Our borrowings under repurchase, warehouse and revolving facilities bear interest at rates that fluctuate with LIBOR. Various financial vehicles exist which would allow our management to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flows and earnings. During March 2003, upon our management's analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies, we entered into an interest rate swap in order to hedge against increases in the floating interest rate on our repurchase facilities. The swap is a five-year agreement with Bank of America ("BOA") whereby we pay BOA a fixed 3.48% on a notional amount of $30.0 million. In return, BOA pays us 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 BOA to meet the terms of the contracts with us; however, there is no current indication of such an inability. Based on the $213.7 million unhedged portion of the $243.7 million of borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2005, a 1% change in LIBOR would impact our annual net income and cash flows by approximately $2.1 million. However, as the interest income from some of our loans is also based on LIBOR, a 1% increase in LIBOR would increase our annual net income and cash flows from such loans by approximately $366,000. The net effect of a 1% increase in LIBOR would therefore result in a reduction of our annual net income by approximately $1.8 million. In addition, an increase in LIBOR could also impede the collections of interest on our variable rate loans. Because the value of our debt securities fluctuates with changes in interest rates, rate fluctuations will also affect the market value of our net assets. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING. There have not been any significant changes in our 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, our internal control over financial reporting. 23 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On October 27, 2003, prior to taking possession of the real estate collateral supporting a loan investment, we were named in a lawsuit, Concord Gulfgate, Ltd. vs. Robert Parker, Sunrise Housing Ltd., and American Mortgage Acceptance Company, Cause No. 2003-59290 in the 133rd Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas. The suit alleges that the loan transaction was not properly authorized by the partnership and was not for a legitimate partnership purpose. The suit claims, among other causes of action against the respective defendants, wrongful foreclosure of the real estate collateral, tortious interference with contract and civil conspiracy. The suit seeks, among other relief, actual, consequential, and exemplary damages, and a declaration that the loan documents are unenforceable and constitute a cloud on title. The discovery phase of this suit has been completed. A summary judgment was filed by us, but was denied on July 25, 2005. It is not known when the case will be called to trial. We filed a countersuit on November 25, 2003, against Concord Gulfgate, Ltd., as guarantor, seeking a deficiency on the loan, and recovery of unpaid taxes and certain property receipts. We are currently unable to determine the possible outcome of the litigation. ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS - None ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES - None ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS - None ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION On November 8, 2005, Stuart J. Boesky, announced that he will step down from his positions as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Chief Executive Officer and President, effective November 15, 2005. Mr. Boesky will serve as a consultant to CharterMac, the parent of our Advisor, for a period of one year, and his consulting contract may be terminated by either party. In the interim, the Board of Trustees has appointed Jeff T. Blau, a trustee of CharterMac, as interim Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board has also appointed Marc D. Schnitzer, the President of CharterMac, as our President. ITEM 6.
