MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Capitalized terms are used as defined elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company had identified significant accounting policies that, as a result of the judgements, uncertainties, uniqueness and complexities of the underlying accounting standards and operations involved, could result in material changes to its financial condition or result of operations under different conditions or using different assumptions. Details regarding the Company's significant accounting policies are described fully in the Company's 2001 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. During the first quarter of 2002, there have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies that impacted the Company's financial condition or results of operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 For the three months ended March 31, 2002, income before gain from property dispositions, net and minority interests decreased by 3.2 percent from $11.3 million to $10.9 million, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. The decrease was due to increased revenues of $1.7 million and increased expenses of $2.0 million. Income from property increased by $3.9 million from $34.5 million to $38.4 million, or 11.2 percent, due to acquisitions ($2.1 million) and rent increases and other community revenues ($1.8 million). Income from affiliates decreased from $0.2 million to a loss of $0.2 million. Other income decreased by $1.8 million from $4.3 million to $2.5 million due primarily to a decrease in interest income. Property operating and maintenance expenses increased by $0.8 million from $7.4 million to $8.2 million, or 11.0 percent, primarily due to acquisitions ($0.5 million). Real estate taxes increased by $0.3 million from $2.2 million to $2.5 million due to acquisitions ($0.15 million) and changes in certain assessments. Property management expenses remained constant at $0.8 million representing 2.0 percent and 2.3 percent of income from property in 2002 and 2001, respectively. 11 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED: General and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million from $1.1 million to $1.3 million, representing 3.2 percent and 2.9 percent of total revenues in 2002 and 2001, respectively. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA", an alternative financial performance measure that may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, defined as total revenues less property operating and maintenance, real estate taxes, property management, and general and administrative expenses) increased by $0.4 million from $27.5 million to $27.9 million. EBITDA as a percent of revenues was 68.5 percent in 2002 compared to 70.4 percent in 2001. Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.3 million from $7.8 million to $9.1 million, or 16.8 percent, due primarily to the net additional investment in rental properties. Interest expense decreased by $0.5 million from $8.4 million to $7.9 million, or 6.4 percent, due primarily to decreasing rates on variable rate debt. The three months ended March 31, 2001 also included a $3.5 million gain from property dispositions, net. 12 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED: SAME PROPERTY INFORMATION The following table reflects property-level financial information as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. The "Same Property" data represents information regarding the operation of communities owned as of January 1, 2001 and March 31, 2002. Site, occupancy, and rent data for those communities is presented as of the last day of each period presented. The "Total Portfolio" column differentiates from the "Same Property" column by including financial information for managed but not owned communities, new development and acquisition communities.
Same Property Total Portfolio ------------------------ ----------------------- 2002 2001 2002 2001 --------- --------- --------- --------- Income from property $ 33,257 $ 31,732 $ 38,397 $ 34,543 --------- --------- --------- --------- Property operating expenses: Property operating and maintenance 6,092 6,041 8,171 7,362 Real estate taxes 2,383 2,246 2,547 2,248 --------- --------- --------- --------- Property operating expenses 8,475 8,287 10,718 9,610 --------- --------- --------- --------- Property EBITDA $ 24,782 $ 23,445 $ 27,679 $ 24,933 ========= ========= ========= ========= Number of operating properties 103 103 116 109 Developed sites 36,504 36,304 41,228 38,028 Occupied sites 33,696 33,869 37,770 35,338 Occupancy % 94.4% 95.5% 93.5%(1) 95.0%(1) Weighted average monthly rent per site $ 309 $ 296 $ 306(1) $ 294(1) Sites available for development 2,354 1,913 4,375 4,476 Sites planned for development in current year 252 185 609 593
(1) Occupancy % and weighted average rent relates to manufactured housing sites, excluding recreational vehicle sites. On a same property basis, property EBITDA increased by $1.3 million from $23.4 million to $24.8 million, or 5.7 percent. Property revenues increased by $1.5 million from $31.7 million to $33.2 million, or 4.8 percent, due primarily to increases in rents including water and property tax pass through. 13 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal liquidity demands have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, distributions to the Company's stockholders and the Operating Partnership's unitholders, property acquisitions, development and expansion of properties, capital improvements of properties and debt repayment. The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements through its working capital provided by operating activities and its line of credit, as described below. The Company considers its ability to generate cash from operations (anticipated to be approximately $70 million annually) to be adequate to meet all operating requirements, including recurring capital improvements, routinely amortizing debt and other normally recurring expenditures of a capital nature, pay dividends to its stockholders to maintain qualification as a REIT in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and make distributions to the Operating Partnership's unitholders. The Company plans to invest approximately $25 to $30 million annually in developments consisting of expansions to existing communities and the new or continuing development of new communities. The Company expects to finance these investments by using net cash flows provided by operating activities and by drawing upon its line of credit. Furthermore, the Company expects to invest in the range of $40 to $60 million in the acquisition of properties in 2002, depending upon market conditions. The Company plans to finance these investments by using net cash flows provided by operating activities and by drawing upon its line of credit. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $0.1 million to $4.7 million at March 31, 2002 compared to $4.6 million at December 31, 2001 because cash provided by operating activities and financing activities exceeded used in investing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $3.5 million to $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to $22.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to accounts payable and other liabilities decreasing by $3.4 million and other assets increasing by $1.1 million offset by an increase in income before minority interests, depreciation and amortization, gain from property dispositions, net and discontinued operations increasing by $1.0 million. The Company's net cash flows provided by operating activities may be adversely impacted by, among other things: (a) the market and economic conditions in the Company's current markets generally, and specifically in metropolitan areas of the Company's current markets; (b) lower occupancy and rental rates of the Company's properties (the "Properties"); (c) increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, real estate taxes and utilities, that cannot be passed on to the Company's tenants; and (d) decreased sales of manufactured homes. See "Factors that May Affect Future Results" in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K. 14 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES, CONTINUED: The Company's $150 million unsecured line of credit, which expires in January 2003, bears interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.0%. At March 31, 2002, the average interest rate of outstanding borrowings under the line of credit was 2.91%, $125 million was outstanding and $25 million was available to be drawn. The line of credit facility contains various leverage, debt service coverage, net worth maintenance and other customary covenants all of which the Company was in compliance with at March 31, 2002. The Company's primary long-term liquidity needs are principal payments on outstanding indebtedness. At March 31, 2002, the Company's outstanding contractual obligations were as follows:
PAYMENTS DUE BY PERIOD (IN THOUSANDS) ------------------------------------------------------- CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS(1) TOTAL DUE 1 YEAR 2-3 YEARS 4-5 YEARS AFTER 5 YEARS --------- ------ --------- --------- ------------- Line of credit $ 125,000 $ 125,000 Collateralized term loan 42,671 $ 1,389 $ 1,597 $ 39,060 625 Senior notes 285,000 85,000 200,000 Mortgage notes, other 41,222 9,155 9,317 21,927 823 Capitalized lease obligations 25,891 16,087 9,804 Redeemable Preferred OP Units 48,458 8,064 40,394 --------- --------- --------- -------- --------- $ 568,242 $ 142,535 $ 105,348 $ 18,978 $ 301,381 ========= ========= ========= ======== =========
(1) The Company is the guarantor of $23.2 million in personal bank loans which is not reflected in the balance sheet, maturing in 2004, made to the Company's directors, employees and consultants for the purpose of purchasing shares of Company common stock or Operating Partnership OP Units pursuant to the Company's Stock Purchase Plan. The Company is obligated under the Guaranty only in the event that one or more of the borrowers cannot repay their loan when due. The Company anticipates meeting its long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, large property acquisitions and Operating Partnership unit redemptions, through the issuance of debt or equity securities, including equity units in the Operating Partnership, or from selective asset sales. Along with Origen LLC's other investors, the Company may be requested to make additional capital contributions to maintain its respective ownership interest. The Company has maintained investment grade ratings with Fitch ICBA, Moody's Investor Service and Standard & Poor's, which facilitates access to the senior unsecured debt market. Since 1993, the Company has raised, in the aggregate, $263.4 million from the sale of shares of its common stock, $84.2 from the sale of OP units in the Operating Partnership and $430 million from the issuance of secured and unsecured debt securities. In addition, at March 31, 2002, ninety-six of the Properties were unencumbered by debt, therefore, providing substantial financial flexibility. 15 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES, CONTINUED: The ability of the Company to finance its long-term liquidity requirements in such manner will be affected by numerous economic factors affecting the manufactured housing community industry at the time, including the availability and cost of mortgage debt, the financial condition of the Company, the operating history of the Properties, the state of the debt and equity markets, and the general national, regional and local economic conditions. See "Factors that May Affect Future Results" in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K. If the Company is unable to obtain additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition will be harmed. At March 31, 2002, the Company's debt to total market capitalization approximated 36.5 percent (assuming conversion of all Common OP Units to shares of common stock). The debt has a weighted average maturity of approximately 4.6 years and a weighted average interest rate of 6.3 percent. Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 included recurring capital expenditures of $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $43.8 million to $27.3 million compared to $16.1 million provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was due to a $23.1 million increase in rental property acquisition activities, repayments from financing notes receivable, net decreasing by $16.1 million, a $12.9 million decrease in proceeds related to property dispositions offset by an increase of $8.3 million increase in investment in and advances to affiliates. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $47.5 million to $8.6 million from $38.9 million used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily due to a $44.0 million increase in borrowings on the line of credit, proceeds from issuance of common stock increasing by $8.0 million including reduced treasury stock purchases offset by a $4.1 million increase in repayments on notes payable. 16 SUN COMMUNITIES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OTHER Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus rental property depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Industry analysts consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of the operating performance of an equity REIT primarily because the computation of FFO excludes historical cost depreciation as an expense and thereby facilitates the comparison of REITs which have different cost bases in their assets. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, whereas real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen based upon market conditions. FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and is a supplemental measure of performance that does not replace net income as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REIT's ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. The following table calculates FFO for both basic and diluted purposes for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands):
