9 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF The accompanying unaudited 2001 consolidated PRESENTATION financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001, or for any other interim period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2000. 2. EARNINGS PER Earnings per share has been computed by dividing common shares outstanding. The per share amounts reflected in the consolidated statements of income are presented in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 "Earnings per Share"; the amounts of the Company's "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share (as defined in SFAS No. 128) are the same. 3. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain amounts in the 2000 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2001 presentation. 9
10 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The Company was established to continue to operate and expand the retail property business of its Predecessors. The Company commenced its operations on April 22, 1994. The assets of the Company are held by, and all operations are conducted through, Agree Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), of which the Company is the sole general partner and held an 86.77% interest as of March 31, 2001. The Company is operating so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes. The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Agree Realty Corporation, including the respective notes thereto, which are included in this Form 10-Q. COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 Minimum rental income increased $319,000, or 6%, to $5,380,000 in 2001, compared to $5,061,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of the development of three properties in 2000 and one property in 2001. Percentage rental income increased $34,000, or 36%, to $125,000 in 2001, compared to $91,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of increased tenant sales. Operating cost reimbursement, which represents additional rent required by substantially all of the Company's leases to cover the tenants' proportionate share of real estate taxes and property operating expenses, increased $18,000, or 3%, to $666,000 in 2001, compared to $648,000 in 2001. Operating cost reimbursement increased due to the net increase in real estate taxes and property operating expenses. Management fees and other income remained relatively constant at $11,000 in 2001 compared to $12,000 in 2000. Real estate taxes decreased 14,000, or 3%, to $432,000 in 2001 compared to $446,000 in 2000. The decrease is the result of general assessment changes on the Company's properties. Property operating expenses (shopping center maintenance, insurance and utilities) increased $27,000, or 6%, to $437,000 in 2001 compared to $410,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of increased snow removal costs of $47,000; a decrease in shopping center maintenance costs of ($32,000); an increase in utility costs of $10,000 and an increase in insurance cost of $2,000. Land lease payments increased $44,000, or 31%, to $185,000 in 2001 compared to $141,000 in 2000 as a result of the Company leasing land for its Petoskey, Michigan development completed in 2000. 10
11 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I General and administrative expenses decreased $10,000, or 3%, to $382,000 in 2001 compared to $392,000 in 2000. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of rental income decreased from 7.6% for 2000 to 6.9% for 2001. Depreciation and amortization increased $52,000, or 6%, to $952,000 in 2001 compared to $900,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of the development and acquisition of three properties in 2000 and one property in 2001. Interest expense increased $191,000, or 12%, to $1,850,000 in 2001, from $1,659,000 in 2000. The increase in interest expense was the result of the Company's additional borrowing to finance its development of properties and increased rates on variable rate notes payable. Equity in net income of unconsolidated entities increased $172,000 to $174,000 in 2001 compared to $2,000 in 2000 as a result of depreciation expense no longer being allocated to the Company pursuant to the agreements relating to the Joint Ventures in which the Company holds interests ranging from 8% to 20%. The Company's income before minority interest increased $250,000, or 13%, to $2,118,000 in 2001, from $1,868,000 in 2000 as a result of the foregoing factors. 11
12 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS Management considers Funds from Operations ("FFO") to be a supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investments Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") to mean net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities in which the REIT holds an interest. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. The following tables illustrate the calculation of FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000: <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> Net income before minority interest $ 2,118,416 $ 1,867,733 Depreciation of real estate assets 931,056 876,274 Amortization of leasing costs 15,431 17,093 Amortization of stock awards 67,000 59,000 Depreciation of real estate assets held in unconsolidated entities - 171,980 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS $ 3,131,903 $ 2,992,080 ========================================================================================================================== WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES AND OP UNITS OUTSTANDING 5,090,416 5,072,216 ========================================================================================================================== </TABLE> 12
13 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Management has included herein certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. When used, statements which are not historical in nature including the words "anticipate," "estimate," "should," "expect," "believe," "intend" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are, by their nature, subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Risks and other factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, the effect of economic and market conditions; risks that the Company's acquisition and development projects will fail to perform as expected; financing risks, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms; the level and volatility of interest rates; loss or bankruptcy of one or more of the Company's major retail tenants; and failure of the Company's properties to generate additional income to offset increases in operating expenses. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal demands for liquidity are distributions to its stockholders, debt repayment, development of new properties and future property acquisitions. During the quarter ended March 31, 2001, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $.46 per share. The dividend was paid on April 12, 2001, to holders of record on March 30, 2001. As of March 31, 2001, the Company had total mortgage indebtedness of $51,776,192 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.95%. Future scheduled annual maturities of mortgages payable for the years ending March 31 are as follows: 2002 - $1,413,987; 2003 - $1,535,387; 2004 - $1,644,572; 2005 - $1,761,523; and 2006 - $2,386,799. This mortgage debt is all fixed rate debt. In addition, the Operating Partnership has in place a $50 million line of Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility") which is guaranteed by the Company. The loan matures in August 2003 and can be extended by the Company for an additional three years. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest within a range of one-month to six-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points to 213 basis points or the bank's prime rate, at the option of the Company, based on certain factors such as debt to property value and debt service coverage. The Credit Facility is used to fund property acquisitions and development activities and is secured by most of the Company's Properties which are not otherwise encumbered and properties to be acquired or developed. As of March 31, 2001, $35,158,232 was outstanding under the Credit Facility. 13
14 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I The Company also has in place a $5 million line of credit (the "Line of Credit"), which matures on February 19, 2002, and which the Company expects to renew for an additional 12-month period. The Line of Credit bears interest at the bank's prime rate less 50 basis points or 175 basis points in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate, at the option of the Company. The purpose of the Line of Credit is to provide working capital to the Company and fund land options and start-up costs associated with new projects. As of March 31, 2001, $300,000 was outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit. The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries have obtained construction financing of approximately $16,100,000 to fund the development of four retail properties. The notes require quarterly interest payments, based on a weighted average interest rate based on LIBOR, computed by the lender. The notes mature on October 16, 2002 and are secured by the underlying land and buildings. As of March 31, 2001, $14,896,962 was outstanding under these notes. The Company has received funding from an unaffiliated third party for the construction of certain of its Properties. Advances under this agreement bear no interest and are secured by the specific land and buildings being developed. As of March 31, 2001, $1,703,590 was outstanding under this arrangement. The Company has one development project under construction that will add an additional 14,490 square feet of retail space to the Company's portfolio. The project is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2001. Additional Company funding required for this project is estimated to be $1,300,000 and will come from the Credit Facility. Management expects the development of this project to have a positive effect on cash generated by operating activities and Funds from Operations. The Company intends to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to the leasing and improvement of the Properties, through its cash flow provided by operations and the Line of Credit. Management believes that adequate cash flow will be available to fund the Company's operations and pay dividends in accordance with REIT requirements. The Company may obtain additional funds for future development or acquisitions through other borrowings or the issuance of additional shares of capital stock. The Company intends to incur additional debt in a manner consistent with its policy of maintaining a ratio of total debt (including construction and acquisition financing) to total market capitalization of 65% or less. 14
15 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION PART I The Company plans to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties, which will initially be financed by the Credit Facility and Line of Credit. Management intends to periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and/or equity. Upon completion of refinancing, the Company intends to lower the ratio of total debt to market capitalization to 50% or less. Nevertheless, the Company may operate with debt levels or ratios which are in excess of 50% for extended periods of time prior to such refinancing. INFLATION The Company's leases generally contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on net income. These provisions include clauses enabling the Company to pass through to tenants certain operating costs, including real estate taxes, common area maintenance, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Certain of the Company's leases contain clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, expiring tenant leases permit the Company to seek increased rents upon re-lease at market rates if rents are below the then existing market rates. 15
16 ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities. There is inherent rollover risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and the Company's future financing requirements. Mortgages payable - As of March 31, 2001 the Company had four mortgages outstanding. The first mortgage in the amount of $32,280,094 bears interest at 7.00%. The mortgage matures on November 15, 2005. The second mortgage in the amount of $7,262,616 bears interest at 7.00%. The mortgage matures on April 1, 2013 and is subject to a rate review after the 7th year (April 1, 2006). The third mortgage in the amount of $11,733,482 bears interest at 6.63%. The mortgage matures on February 5, 2017. The fourth mortgage in the amount of $500,000 bears interest at 10.00%. The mortgage matures October 5, 2005. Construction loans - As of March 31, 2001 the Company had Construction loans outstanding of $16,600,552. Under the terms of the construction loans the Company bears no interest rate risk. Notes Payable - As of March 31, 2000 the Company had $35,458,232 outstanding on its Lines-of-Credit which were subject to interest at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR. The Company does not enter into financial instrument transactions for trading or other speculative purposes or to manage interest rate exposure. A 10% adverse change in interest rates on the portion of the Company's debt bearing interest at variable rates would result in an annual increase in interest expense of approximately $240,000. 16
