We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses of the Florida Portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2006. This statement is the responsibility of the management of the Florida Portfolio (the “Properties”).  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this statement based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement is free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Properties’ internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Properties’ internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

The accompanying statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity Residential and ERP Operating Limited Partnership, as described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Properties’ revenue and expenses.

 

In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses of the Florida Portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

1. Basis of Presentation

 

On January 4, 2007, ERP Operating Limited Partnership (collectively with Equity Residential, its general partner, the “Company”) indirectly acquired a portfolio of apartment buildings in Florida known as the Florida Portfolio (the “Properties”).

 

The statement of revenue and certain expenses relate to the operations of the Florida Portfolio and were prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses has been prepared using the accrual method of accounting, and certain expenses such as depreciation, amortization, income taxes, mortgage interest expense and entity expenses are not reflected in the statement of revenue and certain expenses, as required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently, the statement of revenue and certain expenses for the period presented is not representative of the actual operations for the period presented, as certain revenues and expenses which may not be in the proposed future operations of the Florida Portfolio have been excluded in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The residential apartments are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less.  Rental income is recognized as it is earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis.

 

Repairs and Maintenance

Estimates

 

The preparation of the statement in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Advertising Costs

 

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included as operating expenses on the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses.  Advertising expenses were approximately $124,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

THE GREENWOOD PROPERTIES

Notes to Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses

 

 

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

On July 27, 2007, ERP Operating Limited Partnership (collectively with Equity Residential, its general partner, the “Company”) indirectly acquired two apartment buildings in Centennial, Colorado known as the Greenwood Properties (the “Properties”).

 

The statements of revenue and certain expenses relate to the operations of the Greenwood Properties and were prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying statements of revenue and certain expenses have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting, and certain expenses such as depreciation, amortization, income taxes, mortgage interest expense and entity expenses are not reflected in the statements of revenue and certain expenses, as required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently, the statements of revenue and certain expenses for the periods presented are not representative of the actual operations for the periods presented, as certain revenues and expenses which may not be in the proposed future operations of the Greenwood Properties have been excluded in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim statement of revenue and certain expenses has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and was prepared on the same basis as the statement of revenue and certain expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the information for this interim period have been made. The revenue in excess of certain expenses for such interim period is not necessarily indicative of the revenue in excess of certain expenses for the full year.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The residential apartments are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less.  Rental income is recognized as it is earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis.

 

Repairs and Maintenance

 

Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, while significant improvements, renovations and replacements are capitalized.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of the statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Advertising Costs

 

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included as operating expenses on the accompanying statements of revenue and certain expenses.  For the year ended December 31, 2006 and the period from January 1, 2007 to July 27, 2007 (unaudited), advertising expenses were approximately $108,000 and $53,000, respectively.

3. Related Party Transactions

 

An affiliate of the Greenwood Properties allocated insurance expense under a master policy to the Properties and various affiliated properties.  Insurance expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the period from January 1, 2007 to July 27, 2007 (unaudited) was approximately $217,000 and $126,000, respectively, and is included in real estate taxes and insurance in the accompanying statements.

 

23



 

Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

 

 

 

                The accompanying unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of Equity Residential and ERP Operating Limited Partnership (collectively, the “Company”) are presented as if the properties had been acquired on September 30, 2007.  The Florida Portfolio, Berkeley Portfolio, Teresina at Lomas Verdes, Upper West Side Portfolio and Greenwood Properties were previously acquired on January 4, 2007, April 18, 2007, April 25, 2007, June 12, 2007, and July 27, 2007, respectively, and as a result, these acquisitions are already reflected in the historical amounts as of September 30, 2007.  These Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets should be read in conjunction with the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 and for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company reported on Forms 10-Q for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 and on Forms 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as updated on Forms 8-K dated August 28, 2007.  In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the acquisitions of the Florida Portfolio, Berkeley Portfolio, Teresina at Lomas Verdes, Upper West Side Portfolio and Greenwood Properties have been made.  The following Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets do not purport to represent the future financial position of the Company.

 

24



 

Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

 

 

 

                The accompanying unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 and for the year ended December 31, 2006 of Equity Residential and ERP Operating Limited Partnership (collectively, the “Company”) are presented as if the Florida Portfolio, Berkeley Portfolio, Teresina at Lomas Verdes, Upper West Side Portfolio and Greenwood Properties had been acquired on January 1, 2006.  The Florida Portfolio was purchased on January 4, 2007 and any operations related to the previous owner’s period of ownership related to the nine months ended September 30, 2007 are immaterial.  Therefore, no pro forma adjustment is presented for the Florida Portfolio for the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007.

 

                These Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

                The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 or for the year ended December 31, 2006 assuming the above transactions had been consummated on January 1, 2006, nor do they purport to represent the future results of operations of the Company.

(A)Represents the historical consolidated statements of operations of Equity Residential and ERP Operating Limited Partnership (collectively, the “Company”) as contained in the historical consolidated financial statements included in previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

(B)Represents the pro forma revenues and expenses for the previous owner’s period of ownership during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 attributable to the acquisition of the Berkeley Portfolio as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2006. Results of operations from the date of acquisition, April 18, 2007, and forward are included in the historical amounts column in the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Interest expense incurred of $2.1 million includes $0.7 million related to interest of the assumption of $66.7 million of mortgage debt and $1.4 million is attributable to draws under the lines of credit calculated using a weighted average interest rate of 5.6955%. Although these Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations assume the acquisition of the Berkeley Portfolio would be primarily financed initially by the revolving lines of credit, the Company’s near-term intention is to finance the acquisition through the use of tax-deferred 1031 exchange proceeds from dispositions. Depreciation expense of $1.6 million relates to the aggregate purchase price of $145.9 million less an allocation to land of $32.7 million and is calculated as follows (amounts in thousands except for depreciable lives):
