6 CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (In thousands, except per share data) Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is a self-managed, self-administered, fully integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT") that is engaged in the development, acquisition and operation of regional shopping malls and community centers. The Company's shopping center properties are located primarily in the Southeast, as well as in select markets in the Northeast and Midwest regions of the United States. The Company conducts substantially all of its business through CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). The Company is the 100% owner of two qualified REIT subsidiaries, CBL Holdings I, Inc. and CBL Holdings II, Inc. At June 30, 2003, CBL Holdings I, Inc., the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, owned a 1.7% general partnership interest and CBL Holdings II, Inc. owned a 52.3% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership for a combined interest held by the Company of 54.0%. At June 30, 2003, the Operating Partnership owns controlling interests in 51 regional malls, 20 associated centers (each adjacent to a regional shopping mall), 62 community centers and an office building. The Operating Partnership consolidates the financial statements of all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Operating Partnership owns non-controlling interests in four regional malls, two associated centers and two community centers. Because major decisions such as the acquisition, sale or refinancing of principal partnership assets must be approved by one or more of the other partners, the Operating Partnership does not control these partnerships and, accordingly, accounts for these investments using the equity method. The Operating Partnership currently has under construction one mall, which is owned in a joint venture, one associated center, and two community centers and has options to acquire certain development properties owned by third parties. The minority interest in the Operating Partnership is held primarily by CBL & Associates, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively "CBL's Predecessor") and by affiliates of The Richard E. Jacobs Group, Inc. ("Jacobs"). CBL's Predecessor contributed their interests in certain real estate properties and joint ventures to the Operating Partnership in exchange for a limited partnership interest when the Operating Partnership was formed in November 1993. Jacobs contributed their interests in certain real estate properties and joint ventures to the Operating Partnership in exchange for a limited partnership interest when the Operating Partnership acquired Jacobs' interests in 23 properties in January 2001. At June 30, 2003, CBL's Predecessor owned a 15.7% limited partnership interest, Jacobs owned a 21.4% limited partnership interest and third parties owned an 8.9% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. CBL's Predecessor also owned 2.3 million shares of the Company's common stock at June 30, 2003, for a combined total interest of 19.7% in the Operating Partnership. Under the terms of the Operating Partnership's limited partnership agreement, each of the limited partners has the right to exchange all or a portion of its partnership interests for shares of the Company's common stock or their cash equivalent, at the Company's election. In such case, the Company assumes the limited partner's ownership of its interests in the Operating Partnership. The number of shares of common stock received by a limited partner of the Operating Partnership upon exercise of its exchange rights will be equal on a one-for-one basis to the number of partnership units exchanged by the limited partner. The amount of cash received by the limited partner, if the Company elects to pay cash, will be based on the trading price at the time of exercise of the shares of common stock that would otherwise have been received by the limited partner in the exchange. Neither the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership nor the shares of common stock of the Company are subject to any right of mandatory redemption. 7 The Operating Partnership conducts the Company's property management and development activities through CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the "Management Company") to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Operating Partnership has a controlling financial interest in the Management Company based on the following factors: |X| The Operating Partnership holds 100% of the preferred stock and owns 6% of the common stock of the Management Company. Through its ownership of the preferred stock, the Operating Partnership has the right to perpetually receive 95% of the economic benefits of the Management Company's operations. |X| The Operating Partnership provides all of the operating capital of the Management Company. |X| The Management Company does not perform any material services for entities in which the Operating Partnership is not a significant investor. |X| The remaining 94% of the Management Company's common stock is owned by individuals who are directors and/or officers of the Company (with the exception of one individual who is a member of the immediate family of a director of the Company) and whose interests are aligned with those of the Company. These individuals contributed nominal amounts of equity in exchange for their interest in the Management Company's common stock. |X| All of the members of the Management Company's Board of Directors are members of the Company's Board of Directors. All of these factors result in the Company having a controlling financial interest in the Management Company and, accordingly, the Management Company is treated as a consolidated subsidiary. CBL & Associates Properties, Inc., the Operating Partnership and the Management Company are collectively referred to herein as "the Company". Note 2 - INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES The Operating Partnership owns non-controlling interests in four regional malls, two associated centers and two community centers, as well as one mall under construction, vacant land held for sale or lease and one development property. Condensed combined financial statement information for the unconsolidated affiliates is as follows:

On February 26, 2003, the Company obtained an $85,000, non-recourse loan that is secured by Westmoreland Mall and Westmoreland Crossing in Greensburg, PA. The loan bears interest at 5.05% and has a term of ten years with payments based on a 25-year amortization schedule. On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into a new secured credit facility for $255,000. This new credit facility replaced both the Company's $130,000 secured credit facility and its unsecured facility of $105,275. The new credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 100 basis points, expires in February 2006, and has a one-year extension, which is at the Company's election. Six regional malls and three associated centers secure the new credit facility. As discussed in Note 6, the Company assumed $40,000 of debt in connection with its acquisition of Sunrise Mall on May 1, 2003. The debt bears interest at LIBOR plus 300 basis points, with a floor of 4.90%, and matures in May 2004. The Company's credit facilities total $365,000, of which $99,566 was available at June 30, 2003. In addition to the $245,000 of outstanding borrowings under these credit facilities, there were also $20,434 outstanding under letters of credit. Additionally, the Company had other credit facilities totaling $19,585 that are used only for issuances of letters of credit, of which $5,930 was available at June 30, 2003. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had total commitments under construction loans of $29,018, of which $12,965 was available to be used for completion of construction and redevelopment projects and replenishment of working capital previously used for construction. The Company also had $12,276 available in unfunded construction loans on operating properties that can be used to replenish working capital previously used for construction. The weighted average remaining term of the Company's consolidated debt was 5.3 years at June 30, 2003 and 5.7 years at December 31, 2002. In May 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections", which rescinds SFAS No. 4. As a result, gains and losses from extinguishments of debt should be classified as extraordinary items only if they meet the criteria of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 ("APB 30"). SFAS No. 145 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. All losses on extinguishment of debt that were classified as an extraordinary item in prior periods have been reclassified to expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Fourteen malls, five associated centers and the office building are owned by special purpose entities that are included in the consolidated financial statements. The sole business purpose of the special purpose entities is the 9 ownership and operation of the properties. The mortgaged real estate and other assets owned by these special purpose entities are restricted under the loan agreements in that they are not available to settle other debts of the Company. However, so long as the loans are not under an event of default, as defined in the loan agreements, the cash flows from these properties, after payments of debt service, operating expenses and reserves, are available for distribution to the Company. Note 4 - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate risks inherent in variable-rate debt and does not use them for trading or speculative purposes. At June 30, 2003, the Company had one interest rate swap agreement, which was designated as a cash flow hedge, with a notional amount of $80,000 that expires August 30, 2003. Under this interest rate swap agreement, the Company receives payments at a rate equal to LIBOR (1.125% at June 30, 2003) and pays interest at a fixed rate of 5.83%. The Company also had one interest rate cap of 5.50%, which expires May 7, 2004, that was in place on $40,000 of variable rate debt that was assumed in connection with the acquisition of Sunrise Mall during the second quarter (see Note 6). At June 30, 2003, the interest rate swap's fair value of $(626) was recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The interest rate cap's fair value was $0 at June 30, 2003. For the quarter, adjustments of $917 were recorded as adjustments in other comprehensive income. Over time, unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified to earnings. This reclassification occurs in the same period or periods that the hedged cash flows affect earnings. The Company estimates that it will reclassify the entire balance of $(626) to earnings as interest expense by August 30, 2003. The Company is exposed to credit losses if counterparties to the swap and cap agreements are unable to perform; therefore, the Company continually monitors the credit standing of the counterparties. Note 5 - SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company measures performance and allocates resources according to property type, which is determined based on certain criteria such as type of tenants, capital requirements, economic risks, leasing terms, and short- and long-term returns on capital.

12 Note 6 - ACQUISITIONS On May 1, 2003, the Company acquired Sunrise Mall and its associated center, Sunrise Commons, which are located in Brownsville, TX. The results of operations of both Sunrise Mall and Sunrise Commons have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The total purchase price of $80,686 consisted of $40,686 in cash and the assumption of $40,000 of debt. The $40,000 of debt bears interest at LIBOR plus 300 basis points, with a floor of 4.90%, and matures in May 2004. This debt was assumed subject to a pre-existing interest rate cap of 5.50% The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

Note 7 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On February 28, 2003, the Company sold a community center for $7,760 and recognized a net gain on discontinued operations of $2,935. Total revenues for this community center were $116 and $389 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $0 and $197 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Note 8- EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common stock for all potential dilutive common shares outstanding. The limited partners' rights to convert their minority interest in the Operating Partnership into shares of common stock are not dilutive. The following summarizes the impact of potential dilutive common shares on the denominator used to compute earnings per share:

13 Note 10 - CONTINGENCIES The Company is currently involved in certain litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business. It is management's opinion that the pending litigation will not materially affect the financial position or results of operations of the Company. Based on environmental studies completed to date, management believes any exposure related to environmental cleanup will not materially affect the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company has guaranteed all of the construction debt related to Waterford Commons, a community center in Waterford, CT, which is owned in a joint venture with a third party that owns a minority interest. The total amount of the commitment for this construction loan is $30,000, of which $10,762 was outstanding at June 30, 2003. The Company will receive a fee from the joint venture in exchange for the guaranty, which will be recognized as revenue pro rata over the term of the guaranty to the extent of the third-party partner's ownership interest. The guaranty will expire when the construction loan matures in July 2004. The fee had not been received as of June 30, 2003. The Company has guaranteed 50% of the debt of Parkway Place L.P., an unconsolidated affiliate in which the Company owns a 45% interest, which owns Parkway Place in Huntsville, AL. The total amount outstanding at June 30, 2003, was $29,235, of which the Company has guaranteed $14,618. The guaranty will expire when the related debt matures in December 2003. The Company did not receive a fee for issuing this guaranty. Under the terms of the partnership agreement of Mall of South Carolina L.P., an unconsolidated affiliate in which the Company owns a 50% interest, the Company has guaranteed 100% of the construction debt to be incurred to develop Coastal Grand in Myrtle Beach, SC. The Company received a fee of $1,571 for this guaranty when it was issued during the three months ended June 30, 2003. The Company will recognize one-half of this fee as revenue pro rata over the term of the guaranty until it expires in May 2006, which represents the portion of the fee attributable to the third-party partner's ownership interest. The Company recognized $44 of revenue related to this guaranty during the three months ended June 30, 2003. Note 11 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Historically, the Company has accounted for stock options using the intrinsic value method of APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Effective January 1, 2003, the Company will record the expense associated with stock options granted after January 1, 2003, on a prospective basis in accordance with the fair value and transition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". There were no stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2003. No stock-based compensation expense related to stock options granted prior to January 1, 2003, has been reflected in net income since all options granted had an exercise price equal to the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to employee stock options: 14

Note 12 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 requires that the costs associated with exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured at fair value when the liability is incurred. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Since the Company typically does not engage in significant disposal activities, the implementation of SFAS No. 146 in 2003 did not have a significant impact on the Company's reported financial results. In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of SFAS No. 5, 57, and 107, and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34." The interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its financial statements. It also requires a guarantor to recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee at the inception of a guarantee, which is effective for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45 in the fourth quarter of 2002. In accordance with the interpretation, the Company adopted the remaining provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45 effective January 1, 2003. See Note 10 for disclosures related to the Company's guarantees. In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51". FASB Interpretation No. 46 requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. Currently, entities are generally consolidated by an enterprise when it has a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity. The consolidation provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 will be effective for the Company beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2003, for entities formed prior to January 1, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of the issuance of FASB Interpretation No. 46. Note 13 - NONCASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES The Company's noncash investing and financing activities were as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002:

15 Note 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On July 25, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into separate agreements to acquire four regional malls for a total purchase price of $340,000. The purchase price will consist of cash and the assumption of $170,000 of non-recourse fixed rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 7.71%. The Company expects the acquisition to close in at least two separate transactions beginning in the third quarter of 2003. On August 6, 2003, the Company agreed to issue 4,200,000 depositary shares in a public offering, each representing one-tenth of a share of 7.75% Series C cumulative redeemable preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. The underwriters of the offering have been granted an option, exercisable for 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 630,000 depositary shares. The Series C preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $250.00 per share ($25.00 per depositary share). Dividends on the Series C preferred stock are cumulative, accrue from the date of issuance and are payable quarterly in arrears at a rate of $19.375 per share ($1.9375 per depositary share) per annum. The Series C preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not redeemable before August 22, 2008. The net proceeds will be used to partially fund the purchase price of the four malls discussed in the preceding paragraph and for general corporate purposes, including funding future developments, expansions and acquisitions. The offering is scheduled to close on August 22, 2003. On August 6, 2003, the Company sold a community center in for $1.1 million and recognized a gain of $0.4 million. The results of operations of this community center will be reflected as discontinued operations beginning in the third quarter of 2003. Note 15 - RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' financial information to conform to the current period presentation. Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that are included in this Form 10-Q. Certain statements made in this section or elsewhere in this report may be deemed "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that these expectations will be attained, and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, general industry, economic and business conditions, interest rate fluctuations, costs of capital and capital requirements, availability of real estate properties, inability to consummate acquisition opportunities, competition from other companies and retail formats, changes in retail rental rates in the Company's markets, shifts in customer demands, tenant bankruptcies or store closings, changes in vacancy rates at the Company's properties, changes in operating expenses, changes in applicable laws, rules and regulations, the ability to obtain suitable equity and/or debt financing and the continued availability of financing in the amounts and on the terms necessary to support the Company's future business. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the forward-looking information. 16 GENERAL BACKGROUND See Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for a description of the Company. The Company classifies its regional malls into two categories - malls that have completed their initial lease-up ("Stabilized Malls") and malls that are in their initial lease-up phase ("Non-Stabilized Malls"). The Non-Stabilized Mall category is presently comprised of The Lakes Mall in Muskegon, MI, which opened in August 2001, and Parkway Place Mall in Huntsville, AL, which opened in October 2002. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 The following significant transactions impact the comparison of the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to the comparable period ended June 30, 2002: |X| The Company has opened or acquired nine properties since May 1, 2002. Therefore, the three months ended June 30, 2003, include a greater amount of operations for these properties than the comparable period a year ago. The properties opened or acquired are as follows:

Revenues The $17.3 million increase in revenues resulted primarily from: |X| an increase in minimum rents and tenant reimbursements of $15.2 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated, |X| an increase in minimum rents and tenant reimbursements of $2.9 million from the Company's remaining properties, including a reduction in lease termination fees of $2.6 million to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2002. The Company's cost recovery percentage increased to 101% for the second quarter of 2003 compared to 92.5% for the second quarter of 2002 due to increases in occupancy and the recovery of capital expenditures from tenants, |X| an increase in other revenues of $0.8 million due to an increase in the revenues of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary, |X| a reduction in percentage rents of $0.6 million, which resulted from a decline at the Company's existing properties of $0.8 offset by an increase of $0.2 million from the addition of the twelve properties discussed above, and |X| a reduction of $1.1 million in management, development and leasing fees, which resulted from a decrease in management and leasing fees related to the three properties that are now consolidated. Expenses The $3.2 million increase in property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs, resulted from: |X| an increase of $0.5 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated and |X| an increase of $2.7 million in general operating costs at the Company's remaining properties. 18 The increase of $4.0 million in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to: |X| an increase of $2.8 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated and |X| an increase of $1.2 million as a result of the ongoing capital expenditures made by the Company for renovations, expansions, tenant allowances and deferred maintenance. General and administrative expenses increased $1.2 million primarily as a result of additional salaries and benefits of personnel added to manage newly opened or acquired properties, as well as annual increases in salaries and benefits of existing personnel. Other expense increased due to an increase in operating expenses of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary. Interest Income The increase of $0.4 million in interest income results from the increase in the amount of mortgage and other notes receivable outstanding compared to the prior year period. The increase in mortgage and other notes receivable primarily relates to mortgage notes receivable from buyers of real estate assets the Company has sold. Interest Expense Interest expense increased by $4.3 million primarily due to the additional debt related to the nine properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated. Loss on Extinguishment of Debt The loss on extinguishment of debt of $167,000 recognized during the second quarter of 2003 resulted from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to a loan that was retired before its scheduled maturity. The loss on extinguishment of debt in the second quarter of 2002 consisted of the write-off of $1.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs. Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets The gain on sales of $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2003 was primarily from gains on sales of ten outparcels and an option on land. The gain on sales of $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2002 resulted from gains on sales of two outparcels offset by a loss on one outparcel. Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates The three properties that are now consolidated accounted for $1.2 million of the decline in equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Discontinued Operations Discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2003 represent the true-up of estimated costs related to the sale of Capital Crossing to the actual amounts that became known in the second quarter. Discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2002 represent the operations for Capital Crossing plus five community centers and one office building that were sold during 2002. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of operating properties that have been sold are reclassified and presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. One of the community centers and the office building were sold for gains and one community center was sold at a loss during the second quarter of 2002. 19 COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 The following significant transactions impact the comparison of the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to the comparable period ended June 30, 2002: |X| The Company has opened or acquired nine properties since May 1, 2002. Therefore, the six months ended June 30, 2003, include a greater amount of operations for these properties than the comparable period a year ago. The properties opened or acquired are as follows:

20 Revenues The $39.1 million increase in revenues resulted primarily from: |X| an increase in minimum rents and tenant reimbursements of $28.8 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since the May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated, |X| an increase in minimum rents and tenant reimbursements of $13.1 million from the Company's remaining properties, including a reduction in lease termination fees of $3.0 million to $1.6 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2002. The Company's cost recovery percentage increased to 98.9% for the first six months of 2003 compared to 91.8% for the comparable periods of 2002 due to increases in occupancy and the recovery of capital expenditures from tenants, |X| a reduction in percentage rents of $1.0 million, which resulted from a decline at the Company's existing properties of $1.5 million, offset by an increase of $0.5 million from the addition of the properties discussed above, |X| a reduction of $1.0 million in management, development and leasing fees, which resulted from a decrease in management and leasing fees related to the three properties that are now consolidated, and |X| a reduction in other revenues of $0.8 million due to a reduction in the revenues of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary. Expenses The $13.6 million increase in property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs, resulted from: |X| an increase of $10.6 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated and |X| an increase of $3.0 million in general operating costs at the Company's remaining properties. The increase of $7.9 million in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to: |X| an increase of $5.1 million attributable to the nine properties opened or acquired since the first quarter of 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated and |X| an increase of $2.8 million as a result of the ongoing capital expenditures made by the Company for renovations, expansions, tenant allowances and deferred maintenance. General and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million primarily as a result of additional salaries and benefits of personnel added to manage newly opened or acquired properties, as well as annual increases in salaries and benefits of existing personnel. Other expense decreased due to a reduction in operating expenses of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary. Interest Income The increase of $0.2 million in interest income results from the increase in the amount of mortgage and other notes receivable outstanding compared to the prior year period. The increase in mortgage and other notes receivable primarily relates to mortgage notes receivable from buyers of real estate assets the Company has sold. Interest Expense Interest expense increased $4.5 million primarily because of the additional debt related to the properties opened or acquired since May 1, 2002 and the properties that are now consolidated. 21 Loss on Extinguishment of Debt The loss on extinguishment of debt of $167,000 recognized during the first six months of 2003 resulted from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to a loan that was retired before its scheduled maturity. The loss on extinguishment of debt in the first six months of 2002 consisted of prepayment penalties of $1.9 million and the write-off of $1.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs. Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets The gain on sales of $4.1 million in 2003 resulted from gains on sales of 12 outparcels and two options on land. The gain on sales of $2.2 million in 2002 resulted from gains on five outparcels offset by losses on two outparcels and one department store building. Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates The decrease in equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates of $1.6 million was due to a reduction of $2.0 million related to the three properties that are now consolidated, offset by improvements in the operations of the remaining unconsolidated affiliates. The improvement from the remaining unconsolidated affiliates was primarily attributable to Kentucky Oaks Mall, where occupancy increased 4.90% compared to the prior year. The increase in the equity in earnings of Kentucky Oaks Mall was $0.7 million. Discontinued Operations Discontinued operations in 2003 relate to Capital Crossing, a community center in Raleigh, NC, that was sold during the first quarter of 2003 for a gain of $2.9 million. Discontinued operations in 2002 represent the operations of Capital Crossing plus five community centers and one office building that were sold during 2002. Two of the community centers and the office building were sold for gains and one community center was sold at a loss in the first six months of 2002. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS The shopping center business is, to some extent, seasonal in nature with tenants achieving the highest levels of sales during the fourth quarter because of the holiday season. The malls earn most of their "temporary" rents (rents from short-term tenants), during the holiday period. Thus, occupancy levels and revenue production are generally the highest in the fourth quarter of each year. Results of operations realized in any one quarter may not be indicative of the results likely to be experienced over the course of the fiscal year. The Company's consolidated revenues were derived from the Company's property types as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2003: Malls 84.4% Associated centers 3.4% Community centers 9.1% Mortgages, office building and other 3.1% 22 Sales and Occupancy Costs For those tenants who occupy 10,000 square feet or less and have reported sales, mall shop sales in the 53 Stabilized Malls decreased by 1.5% on a comparable per square foot basis to $125.71 per square foot for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $127.61 per square foot for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Total sales volume in the mall portfolio, including Non-Stabilized Malls, decreased 0.5% to $1.325 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $1.332 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Sales were negatively impacted by severe winter weather and the effects of the war in Iraq. Occupancy costs as a percentage of sales for the Stabilized Malls for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, were 14.5% and 14.1%, respectively. Occupancy costs as a percentage of sales are generally higher in the first three quarters of the year as compared to the fourth quarter due to the seasonality of retail sales. Occupancy Occupancy for the Company's portfolio was as follows:
At June 30, --------------------------------- 2003 2002 ----------------- --------------- Total portfolio occupancy 92.4% 91.1% Total mall portfolio 91.7% 89.4% Stabilized Malls (53) 92.2% 89.7% Non-Stabilized Malls (2) 77.8% 84.5% Associated centers 91.7% 95.9% Community centers 94.0% 94.3%
Occupancy for the associated centers declined due to the acquisition of Westmoreland Crossing in Greensburg, PA, in December 2002, which has a 68,000 square foot former Ames store that is vacant. Excluding Westmoreland Crossing, occupancy for the associated centers would have been 95.3% at June 30, 2003. Occupancy for the Non-Stabilized Malls declined because Arbor Place in Douglasville, GA, was moved from the Non-Stabilized Mall category to the Stabilized Mall category. Average Base Rents Average base rents per square foot for the portfolio were as follows:
At June 30, ---------------------- Percentage Increase 2003 2002 (Decrease) -------- ------- ---------- Stabilized Malls $23.98 $23.22 3.3% Non-Stabilized Malls 26.52 21.87 21.3% Associated centers 9.88 9.78 1.0% Community centers 9.39 9.65 (2.7)%
23 Leasing Results The Company achieved the following results from renewal and new leasing for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the base rent at the end of the lease term for spaces previously occupied:
Base Rent Base Rent Per Square Per Square Percentage Foot Foot Renewal/ Increase Prior Lease New Lease (1) (Decrease) -------------- -------------- ----------- Stabilized malls $21.53 $21.99 2.1% Associated centers 15.33 14.43 (5.9)% Community centers 10.31 10.46 1.5% (1) Average base rent over the term of the lease.
CASH FLOWS Cash provided by operating activities increased $2.3 million primarily due to the additional operations of the nine properties opened or acquired since the first quarter of 2002 and the three properties that are now consolidated. Additionally, the Company's cost recovery ratio increased to 98.9% in 2003 from 91.8% in 2002 as a result of increased portfolio occupancy and the recovery of capital expenditures from tenants. Cash used in investing activities increased $42.6 million primarily due to increases in other capital expenditures related to ongoing renovations of properties and a significant decrease in the amount of proceeds received on sales of real estate assets due to fewer transactions in the current year period as compared to the prior year period. Cash provided by financing activities was $20.5 million in 2003 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $21.0 million in 2002. The change was due to a significant decrease in the amount of loan borrowings and repayments, a significant decrease in proceeds from issuances of common and preferred stocks, an increase in distributions to minority investors and an increase in the amount of dividends paid. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The principal uses of the Company's liquidity and capital resources have historically been for property development, expansions, renovations, acquisitions, debt repayment and distributions to shareholders. In order to maintain its qualification as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income, computed without regard to net capital gains or the dividends-paid deduction, to its shareholders. The Company's current capital structure includes: |X| property specific mortgages, which are generally non-recourse, |X| construction loans, term loans, and revolving lines of credit, which have recourse to the Company |X| common stock and preferred stock, |X| joint venture investments and |X| a minority interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company anticipates that the combination of its equity and debt sources will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate liquidity to continue its capital programs substantially as in the past and make distributions to its shareholders in accordance with the requirements applicable to real estate investment trusts. 24 The Company's policy is to maintain a conservative debt-to-total-market capitalization ratio in order to enhance its access to the broadest range of capital markets, both public and private. Based on the Company's share of total consolidated and unconsolidated debt and the market value of equity described below, the Company's debt-to-total-market capitalization (debt plus market value equity) ratio was 50.3% at June 30, 2003. Equity As a publicly traded company, the Company has access to capital through both the public equity and debt markets. The Company has an effective shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, that authorizes the Company to publicly issue shares of preferred stock and common stock, preferred and common stock represented by depositary shares and warrants to purchase shares of common stock up to $562.0 million, which includes $62.3 million that is available under a previously filed shelf registration statement. On August 6, 2003, the Company agreed to issue 4,200,000 depositary shares in a public offering, each representing one-tenth of a share of 7.75% Series C cumulative redeemable preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. The underwriters of the offering have been granted an option, exercisable for 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 630,000 depositary shares. The Series C preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $250.00 per share ($25.00 per depositary share). Dividends on the Series C preferred stock are cumulative, accrue from the date of issuance and are payable quarterly in arrears at a rate of $19.375 per share ($1.9375 per depositary share) per annum. The Series C preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not redeemable before August 22, 2008. The net proceeds will be used to partially fund the purchase of the four malls to be acquired as discussed in the Acquisitions section that follows and for general corporate purposes, including funding future developments, expansions and acquisitions. The offering is scheduled to close on August 22, 2003. As of June 30, 2003, the minority interest in the Operating Partnership includes the 15.7% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership held by the Company's executive and senior officers that may be exchanged for approximately 8.8 million shares of common stock. Additionally, executive and senior officers and directors own approximately 2.3 million shares of the Company's outstanding common stock, for a combined total interest in the Operating Partnership of approximately 19.7%. Limited partnership interests issued to acquire the Richard E. Jacobs Group's interest in a portfolio of properties in January 2001 and March 2002, may be exchanged for approximately 12.0 million shares of common stock, which represents a 21.4% interest in the Operating Partnership. Other third-party interests may be exchanged for approximately 5.0 million shares of common stock, which represents an 8.9% interest in the Operating Partnership. Assuming the exchange of all limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership for common stock, there would be approximately 55.8 million shares of common stock outstanding with a market value of approximately $2.40 billion at June 30, 2003 (based on the closing price of $43.00 per share on June 30, 2003). The Company's total market equity is $2.57 billion, which includes 2.675 million shares of Series A preferred stock ($66.9 million based on a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share) and 2.0 million shares of Series B preferred stock ($100.0 million based on a liquidation preference of $50.00 per share). The Company's executive and senior officers' and directors' ownership interests had a market value of approximately $478.8 million at June 30, 2003. 25 Debt The Company presents its total share of consolidated and unconsolidated debt because the Company believes that this amount provides investors with a clearer understanding of the Company's total debt obligations. The Company's share of mortgage debt on consolidated properties, adjusted for minority investors' interests in consolidated properties, and its pro rata share of mortgage debt on unconsolidated properties, consisted of the following at June 30, 2003 (in thousands):
Minority Company's Share Investors' Company's Weighted of Share of Total Average Consolidated Unconsolidated Consolidated Share Interest Debt Debt Debt of Debt Rate(1) Total -------------- ---------------- ------------ ------------- ---------- Fixed-rate debt: Non-recourse loans on operating properties $1,973,945 $ 37,924 $(19,857) $1,992,012 7.05% -------------- ---------------- ------------ ------------- Variable-rate debt: Recourse term loans on operating properties 305,721 29,235 -- 334,956 3.66% Lines of credit 245,000 -- -- 245,000 2.15% Construction loans 16,248 14,962 -- 31,210 2.82% -------------- ---------------- ------------ ------------- Total variable-rate debt 566,969 44,197 -- 611,166 3.01% ============== ================ ============ ============= Total $2,540,914 $ 82,121 $(19,857) $2,603,178 6.10% ============== ================ ============ ============= (1) Weighted-average interest rate before amortization of deferred financing costs.
On February 26, 2003, the Company obtained an $85.0 million, non-recourse loan that is secured by Westmoreland Mall and Westmoreland Crossing in Greensburg, PA. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.05% and has a term of ten years with a 25-year amortization schedule. On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into a new secured credit facility for $255.0 million. This new credit facility replaced both the Company's $130.0 million secured credit facility and its unsecured facility of $105.3 million. The new credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 100 basis points, expires in February 2006, and has a one-year extension, which is at the Company's election. Six regional malls and three associated centers secure the new credit facility. The Company's credit facilities total $365.0 million, of which $82.6 million was available at June 30, 2003. Additionally, the Company had other credit facilities totaling $19.6 million that are used only for issuances of letters of credit, of which $5.9 million was available at June 30, 2003. As of June 30, 2003, total commitments under construction loans were $161.8 million, of which $106.5 million was available to be used for completion of construction and redevelopment projects and replenishment of working capital previously used for construction. The Company also had $13.6 million available in unfunded construction loans on operating properties that can be used to replenish working capital previously used for construction. The Company has fixed the interest rate on $80.0 million of an operating property's debt at a rate of 6.95% using an interest rate swap agreement that expires in August 2003. The Company did not incur any fees for the swap agreement. The Company also has an interest rate cap of 5.50% that was in place on the $40.0 million of variable rate debt the Company assumed in connection with its acquisition of Sunrise Mall (see Acquisitions). The interest rate cap agreement expires in May 2004. The Company expects to refinance the majority of its mortgage notes payable maturing over the next five years with replacement loans. Taking into consideration extension options that are available to the Company, there are no debt maturities through December 31, 2003, other than normal principal amortization. 26 DEVELOPMENTS, EXPANSIONS, ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS The Company expects to continue to have access to the capital resources necessary to expand and develop its business. Future development and acquisition activities will be undertaken as suitable opportunities arise. The Company does not expect to pursue these opportunities unless adequate sources of financing are available and a satisfactory budget with targeted returns on investment has been approved internally. The Company intends to fund major development, expansion and acquisition activities with traditional sources of construction and permanent debt financing as well as other debt and equity financings, including public financings and the lines of credit, in a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt-to-total-market capitalization ratio. Developments and Expansions The following development projects are currently under construction:
Projected Property Location GLA Opening Date ------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ -------------- --------------------------- MALL ---- Coastal Grand Myrtle Beach, SC 902,000 March 2004 (50/50 Joint Venture)* ASSOCIATED CENTER ----------------- The Shoppes of Panama City Panama City, FL 110,000 February 2004 COMMUNITY CENTERS ----------------- Waterford Commons Waterford, CT 348,000 September 2003 (75/25 Joint Venture)** Wilkes-Barre Township Marketplace Wilkes-Barre Township, PA 281,000 May 2004 * Joint venture development. ** The Company will own at least 75% of the joint venture.
The following renovation projects are currently under construction:
Property Location Projected Completion Date ----------------------- ------------------------ ------------------------- Parkdale Mall Beaumont, TX August 2003 Jefferson Mall Louisville, KY October 2003 Eastgate Mall Cincinnati, OH November 2003 East Towne Mall Madison, WI November 2003 West Towne Mall Madison, WI November 2003 St. Clair Square Fairview Heights, IL November 2003
The Company has entered into a number of option agreements for the development of future regional malls and community centers. Except for the projects discussed under Developments and Expansions above and Acquisitions below, the Company does not have any other material capital commitments. Acquisitions On May 1, 2003, the Company acquired Sunrise Mall, a 740,000 square foot regional mall, and Sunrise Commons, a 225,000 square foot associated center, in Brownsville, TX, for a total purchase price of $80.7 million. The total purchase price consisted of $40.7 million in cash and the assumption of a non-recourse loan of $40.0 million that bears interest at 300 basis points over LIBOR, with a minimum rate of 4.90%. This debt was assumed subject to a pre-existing interest rate cap of 5.50%. 27 On July 25, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into separate agreements to acquire four regional malls for a total purchase price of $340.0 million. The purchase price will consist of cash and the assumption of $170.0 million of non-recourse fixed rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 7.71%. The Company anticipates that three of the transactions will close during the third quarter of 2003 and that the fourth will close during the fourth quarter of 2003. Dispositions On February 28, 2003, the Company sold Capital Crossing, a community center in Raleigh, NC, for $7.8 million and recognized a net gain on discontinued operations of $2.9 million. In addition, the Company sold twelve outparcels, plus two options on land, and recognized a total net gain of $4.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003. On August 6, 2003, the Company a community center for $1.1 million and recognized a gain of $0.4 million. The results of operations of this community center will be reflected as discontinued operations beginning in the third quarter of 2003. OTHER CAPITAL EXPENDITURES The Company prepares an annual capital expenditure budget for each property that is intended to provide for all necessary recurring and non-recurring capital improvements. The Company believes that its operating cash flows will provide the necessary funding for such capital improvements. These cash flows will be sufficient to cover tenant finish costs associated with tenant leases and capital expenditures necessary for the enhancement and maintenance of the properties. Including its share of unconsolidated affiliates' capital expenditures and excluding minority investor's share of capital expenditures, the Company spent $19.3 million during the first six months of 2003 for tenant allowances, which generate increased rents from tenants over the terms of their leases. Deferred maintenance expenditures, a majority of which are recovered from tenants, were $13.7 million for the first six months of 2003. Renovation expenditures, which include some deferred maintenance items, were $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, a portion of which is recovered from tenants. Deferred maintenance expenditures and renovation expenditures included $4.3 million for the resurfacing and the improved lighting of parking lots and $4.2 million for roof repairs and replacements. Deferred maintenance expenditures are billed to tenants as common area maintenance expense, and most are recovered over a 5- to 15-year period. Renovation expenditures are primarily for remodeling and upgrades of malls, of which approximately 30% is recovered from tenants over a 5- to 15-year period. OTHER The Company believes the properties are in compliance, in all material respects, with federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding the handling, discharge and emission of hazardous or toxic substances. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority, and is not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances in connection with any of its present or former properties. Therefore, the Company has not recorded any material liability in connection with environmental matters. 28 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the presentation of a company's financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgment or complex estimation processes. The Company believes that its most significant accounting policies are those related to revenue recognition, accounting for the development of real estate assets and evaluating long-lived assets for impairment. Minimum rental revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial terms of the related leases. Certain tenants are required to pay percentage rent if their sales volumes exceed thresholds specified in their lease agreements. Percentage rent is recognized as revenue when the thresholds are achieved and the amounts become determinable. The Company receives reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and other recoverable operating expenses as provided in the lease agreements. Tenant reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the related operating expenses are incurred. Tenant reimbursements related to certain capital expenditures are billed to tenants over periods of 5 to 15 years and are recognized as revenue when billed. The Company receives management, leasing and development fees from third parties and unconsolidated affiliates. Management fees are charged as a percentage of minimum and percentage rents and are recognized as revenue when earned. Development fees are recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the development period. Leasing fees are charged for newly executed leases and recognized as revenue when earned. Gain on sales of real estate assets is recognized when title to the asset is transferred to the buyer, if the buyer's initial and continuing investment is adequate and the buyer assumes all future ownership risks of the asset. The Company capitalizes predevelopment project costs paid to third parties. All previously capitalized predevelopment costs are expensed when it is no longer probable that the project will be completed. Once development of a project commences, all direct costs incurred to construct the project, including interest and real estate taxes are capitalized. Additionally, certain general and administrative expenses are allocated to the projects and capitalized based on the amount of time applicable personnel work on the development project, and the investment in the project relative to all development projects. Once a project is completed and placed in service, it is depreciated over its estimated useful life. Buildings and improvements are depreciated generally over 40 years and leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the applicable leases or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Nos. 141 and 142, when operating real estate assets are acquired, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The Company determines the estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. The capitalized above market (deferred charge) or below market (deferred credit) intangible is amortized to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases. The intangible related to in-place leases is amortized over the remaining term of the respective leases. 29 The Company periodically evaluates its real estate assets to determine if there has been any impairment in their carrying values and records impairment losses if the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts or if there are other indicators of impairment. At June 30, 2003, the Company did not own any real estate assets that were impaired. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK OPTIONS Historically, the Company has accounted for stock options using the intrinsic value method of APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Effective January 1, 2003, the Company began recording the expense associated with stock options granted after January 1, 2003, on a prospective basis in accordance with the fair value and transition provisions of Statement of Financial Accountings Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." There were no stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2003. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS As described in Note 12 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, the FASB has issued certain statements that were effective January 1, 2003. IMPACT OF INFLATION In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company because of the relatively low inflation rate. Substantially all tenant leases do, however, contain provisions designed to protect the Company from the impact of inflation. These provisions include clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rent based on tenant's gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, many of the leases are for terms of less than ten years, which may enable the Company to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base and/or percentage rents if rents of the existing leases are below the then existing market rate. Most of the leases require tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS Funds from operations ("FFO") is a widely used measure of the operating performance of real estate investment trusts that supplements net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Company computes FFO in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts' definition of FFO, which is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Beginning with the first quarter of 2003, the Company includes gains on sales of outparcels in FFO to comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules related to disclosure of non-GAAP financial measures. FFO for the comparable periods of 2002 have been restated to include gains on sales of outparcels. The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of the Company's properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides investors with a better understanding of the Company's operating performance. 30 The use of FFO as an indicator of operating performance is influenced not only by the operations of the properties and interest rates, but also by the capital structures of the Company and the Operating Partnership. Accordingly, FFO will be one of the significant factors considered by the Board of Directors in determining the amount of cash distributions the Operating Partnership will make to its partners, including the REIT. FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by accounting principals generally accepted in the United States, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income for purposes of evaluating the Company's operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, FFO increased $8.0 million, or 13.5%, to $67.4 million from $59.4 million for the same period in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, FFO increased by $19.8 million, or 17.3%, to $134.7 million as compared to $114.9 million for the same period in 2002. The increase in FFO is primarily attributable to the results of operations of the properties added to the portfolio, increases in base rents and tenant reimbursements at the existing properties and increases in gains on outparcel sales. These increases were offset by reductions related to operating properties that were sold and a reduction in lease termination fees. Lease termination fees were $1.2 million and $3.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $1.6 million and $4.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Gains on sales of outparcels were $3.0 million and $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $4.1 million and $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company's calculation of FFO is as follows (in thousands):

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk The Company has exposure to interest rate risk on its debt obligations and derivative financial instruments. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates and not for speculative purposes. The Company's interest rate risk management policy requires that derivative instruments be used for hedging purposes only and that they be entered into only with major financial institutions based on their credit ratings and other factors. 31 Based on the Company's share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable rate debt at June 30, 2003, excluding debt fixed using an interest rate swap agreement, a 0.5% increase or decrease in interest rates on this variable rate debt would decrease or increase annual cash flows by approximately $3.1 million and, after the effect of capitalized interest, annual earnings by approximately $2.7 million. Based on the Company's share of consolidated and unconsolidated debt at June 30, 2003, a 0.5% increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of debt by approximately $52.9 million, while a 0.5% decrease in interest rates would increase the fair value of debt by approximately $54.6 million. See Note 4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for a description of the Company's derivative financial instruments. Item 4: Controls and Procedures As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation, under Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was performed under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and with the participation of the Company's management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. No change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 32 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings None ITEM 2: Changes in Securities None ITEM 3: Defaults Upon Senior Securities None ITEM 4: Submission of Matter to a Vote of Security Holders The Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 5, 2003.
