Common Shares
The company’s common shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The common shares were listed on the NYSE under the symbol “TCR” on April 18, 1997. Before that date, there was no active trading market for the common shares. The following table sets forth the high and low sale prices on the NYSE for the common shares (as reported by the NYSE) and the cash distributions declared and paid for each quarterly period indicated. On March 7, 2003, the last reported sale price on the NYSE was $7.00 per common share.
Distributions of $53.5 million and $45.9 million were made to the shareholders during 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The timing and amounts of distributions to shareholders are within the discretion of the company’s board of directors. Future distributions will depend on the company’s results of operations, cash flow from operations, economic conditions and other factors, such as working capital, cash requirements to fund investing and financing activities, capital expenditure requirements, including improvements to and expansions of properties and the acquisition of additional properties, as well as the distribution requirements under federal income tax provisions for qualification as a REIT. The company’s distributions to its shareholders also may be limited by the agreements pertaining to the company’s unsecured lines of credit.
On October 7, 2002, the company announced that, effective April 2003, its common share dividend policy will be to pay a regular quarterly cash dividend of $.20 per common share. For 2003, common share distributions would be reduced as a result of this policy by approximately $11.6 million based on the outstanding common shares at December 31, 2002.
For federal income tax purposes, distributions paid to common shareholders may consist of ordinary income, capital gains distributions, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. Distributions constitute ordinary income to the extent of the company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. Distributions which exceed the company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits constitute a return of capital rather than a dividend to the extent of a shareholder’s basis in his common shares and reduce the shareholder’s basis in the common shares. To the extent that a distribution exceeds both the company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits and the shareholder’s basis in his common shares, it is generally treated as gain from the sale or exchange of that shareholder’s common shares. The company notifies shareholders annually as to the taxability of distributions paid during the preceding year. In 2002, approximately 70.2% of distributions on common shares represented a return of capital and 29.8% represented ordinary income.
The company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (as amended, the “Plan”) which allows any record holder to reinvest distributions without payment of any brokerage commissions or other fees. Of the total proceeds raised from common shares during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, $6.8 million, $6.5 million, and $6.1 million, respectively, were provided through the reinvestment of distributions.
In addition, the Plan has a direct purchase feature in which investors may acquire common shares by making cash payments without payment of any brokerage commissions or other fees. During 2002 and 2001, direct purchases accounted for $0.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of the proceeds raised under the Plan.
In September 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $50 million of the company’s common shares. Under this authorization, the company has, as of December 31, 2002, repurchased 1.9 million common shares at an average price of $10.85 per share for a total cost of $21.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the company repurchased 35,800 common shares at an average price of $10.25 per share for a total cost of $0.4 million.
On March 7, 2003, the company’s common shares were held by 1,259 shareholders of record.
Preferred Shares
The company issued Series A Convertible Preferred Shares in July 1999. The company imputed dividends calculated as the present value difference between the perpetual preferred stock distribution and the stated distribution rate. The imputed dividend is reflected as additional non-cash preferred stock distributions. The company declared and paid total distributions of $2.3752 per share on the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares during 2002.
On April 18, 2001, the company completed a tender offer for the company’s outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares (“Exchange Offer”). A total of 12.5 million preferred shares were tendered, representing 99% of the issued and outstanding preferred shares. Of the preferred shares tendered, the holders of 0.7 million such shares received two common shares for each preferred share and the holders of 11.7 million shares received one common share and $12.25 in cash for each preferred share. The company issued a total of 13.2 million common shares and paid $143.8 million in cash in exchange for all of the preferred shares tendered in the Exchange Offer. The difference between the total consideration given and the carrying value of the preferred shares totaled approximately $27.5 million, including direct transaction expenses, and is included on the statement of operations as a reduction to arrive at net loss available to common shareholders. The preferred shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange on August 7, 2001 and trade under the symbol “TCR-PR.” At December 31, 2002, a total of 127,380 preferred shares remained outstanding.
Item 6.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data
The following table sets forth selected consolidated financial and other information as of and for each of the years in the five-year period ended December 31, 2002. The table should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included elsewhere in this Report.
(a)
The company purchased four apartment communities of which two apartment communities are combined with two existing apartment communities.
(b)
The company purchased ten apartment communities of which one apartment community is combined with an existing apartment community and two are adjacent to each other and are operated as one apartment community.
(c)
Funds from Operations (FFO) is defined as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains and (losses) from sales of depreciable property, minority interest of unit holders in operating partnerships, plus depreciation. This definition conforms with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust’s (NAREIT) definition issued in October 1999 which was effective beginning January 1, 2000. The company’s management believes that FFO provides investors with an understanding of the company’s ability to incur and service debt and make capital expenditures. The company considers FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flows as a measure of the company’s activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. In addition, there can be no assurance that the company’s basis for computing FFO is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts.
Item 7.
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The company owned 82 apartment communities with 21,618 apartment homes at December 31, 2002. The company operated in 17 markets overall. At December 31, 2002, the company’s three largest markets comprised 57% of its real estate owned, at cost. The following table summarizes the company’s apartment market information (dollars in thousands).
The following discussion is based on the financial statements of the company as of December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000. This information should be read in conjunction with the selected financial data and the company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31, 2001
Income and Occupancy
During 2002, the company has experienced weakness in occupancy rates and decreases in rental rates as a result of the slow recovery from the recession, new apartment construction, and the strength of the single family housing industry.
The company’s property operations for the year ended December 31, 2002 include the results of operations for the entire year from 80 apartment communities acquired before 2002 and from the respective acquisition dates of the four apartment communities acquired in 2002. The company owned 82 apartment communities at December 31, 2002. Two of the four 2002 acquisitions included two new phases at two existing apartment communities owned by the company. The increases in rental revenues and property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 over the same period in 2001 are primarily due to the effect of a full year of operation in 2002 of the 2001 acquisitions as well as the incremental effect of the 2002 acquisitions. In addition, the company in the third quarter of 2002 recorded a charge of approximately $1.1 million due to a change in the estimate of the collectibility of tenant receivables. The increase in rental revenues is offset in part by a reduction in average economic occupancy from 91% in 2001 to 89% in 2002 and an increase in rental concessions which are both attributable to softening in overall market conditions in the major markets in which the company operates.
The principle source of the company’s revenue is the rental operation of its apartment communities. Rental income increased 7.5% in 2002 to $156.1 million, up $10.9 million over 2001. The increase in rental income is primarily due to the factors described above. The company will continue to add revenue-enhancing improvements in an effort to improve the apartment communities’ marketability, economic occupancies, and rental rates.
Expenses
Property operating expenses include the following expense categories: property and maintenance, taxes and insurance and property management. These categories primarily consist of property taxes and insurance, repairs and maintenance, utilities, payroll costs and advertising and marketing. Property operating expenses in 2002 were $70.7 million and $60.8 million in 2001. The increase is primarily due to the full effect in 2002 of the 2001 acquisitions and the incremental effect of 2002 acquisitions. The increases in property insurance costs, real estate taxes and turnover costs due to the increase in vacancy also contributed to the increases in property operating expenses. The property operating expense ratio (the ratio of property operating expenses to rental income) was 45.3% and 41.9% for 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Depreciation of real estate increased to $46.0 million in 2002 from $40.0 million in 2001, and is directly attributable to a full year of depreciation of the 2001 acquisitions, depreciation on the 2002 acquisitions from their respective acquisition dates and the depreciation associated with capital improvements made during 2002 and 2001.
General and administrative expenses totaled 2.5% and 2.3% of rental income in 2002 and 2001, respectively. These expenses represent the administrative expenses of the company as distinguished from the property operating expenses of the company’s apartment communities.
Interest Income and Expense
The company earned interest income of $30,988 in 2002 and $0.5 million in 2001 from the investment of its cash and cash reserves. The decrease in 2002 is due to a decrease in average invested funds coupled with lower interest rates. In 2001, the company had $46.7 million invested pending its tender offer on April 18, 2001 for the company’s outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares.
The company incurred $41.7 million and $30.9 million of interest expense in 2002 and 2001, respectively, associated with borrowings under its unsecured lines of credit and mortgage notes and amortization of deferred financing costs. During 2002 and 2001, the company incurred interest expense of $39.4 million and $28.0 million, respectively, associated with mortgage notes and $1.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively, associated with the unsecured facilities. The company amortized as interest expense deferred financing costs of $0.8 million in 2002 and $0.7 million in 2001. The increases are due to the full year of the fixed and variable rate mortgage
notes placed or assumed on 26 apartment communities during 2001 and the addition of $53.6 million of secured debt placed or assumed on four apartment communities and the addition of $25 million borrowed on the unsecured line of credit in 2002. This increase was offset in part by decreasing interest rates on the company’s unsecured line of credit during 2002. The overall weighted average interest rate for all borrowings was 6.5% and 6.8% during 2002 and 2001, respectively. Average debt, secured and unsecured, increased from $451 million in 2001 to $630 million in 2002. The increase is due to the full effect of the fixed and variable rate borrowings obtained or assumed in 2001 and the incremental effect of the 2002 fixed and variable rate borrowing obtained or assumed in 2002.
Comparable Property Operations
Property operating income is a measure the company uses to evaluate performance and is not deemed to be an alternative to net income, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, this measure, as calculated by the company, may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. The company’s “same-community” portfolio consists of 69 stabilized apartment communities, containing 17,254 apartment homes, that the company has owned since January 1, 2001, representing approximately 80% of the company’s 21,618 apartment homes. For 2002, same-community property operating income (rental income less property operating expenses) decreased 9%, rental income decreased 3% and property operating expenses increased 5% over 2001. The decrease in rental income is primarily due to the softening in the overall market conditions, which resulted in increased rental concessions and lower average occupancies. The company also experienced an increase in property operating expenses as a result of increased costs to rent vacant apartments along with increases in property insurance costs and real estate taxes. Average monthly rental rates for the “same-community” portfolio decreased 1% to $677 per apartment home in 2002 from $681 per apartment home in 2001. In order to make a meaningful comparison of property operating income for these apartment communities, a one-time charge to tenant receivable of $1.1 million as well as $0.3 million of other charges was excluded as these items occurred in 2002. If the adjustments had been considered for 2002 over 2001, property operating expenses increased 4%; property operating income decreased 10%; and rental income decreased 5%. In addition, property operating income excludes depreciation, amortization, general and administrative, other expenses, interest income and expenses and minority interest, as these are not considered in the operating performance of the apartment communities. The following is a reconciliation of the adjusted same community property operating income to net income as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands):
Results of Operations
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2001 to the year ended December 31, 2000
Income and Occupancy
During 2001 the national economy, as well as the markets in which the company operates, experienced a general downturn. This downturn had an effect on the company’s occupancy and its rental rates. The company also experienced an increase in expenses as a result of increased costs to rent vacant apartments. These factors were more severe in the fourth quarter of 2001.
The company’s property operations for the year ended December 31, 2001 include the results of operations for the entire year from 72 apartment communities acquired before 2001 and from the 10 apartment communities acquired in 2001 from their respective acquisition dates. One of the apartment communities acquired in 2001 is combined with an existing apartment community owned by the company and two are adjacent to each other and are operated as one apartment community. The operations of the 16 apartment communities sold on March 10, 2000 are reflected through the sale date. The increases in rental income and property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 over the same period in 2000 are primarily due to the effect of the apartment communities acquired in 2001 offset in part by a reduction in average economic occupancy from 92% in 2000 to 91% in 2001.
Rental income increased 6.4% in 2001 to $145.2 million, up $8.7 million over 2000. The increase in rental income is primarily due to the factors described above.
Expenses
Property operating expenses increased 12.6% to $60.8 million in 2001 from $54.0 million in 2000. The increase is primarily due to the incremental effect of the 2001 acquisitions, higher real estate tax assessments, increase in property insurance costs and higher rental costs due to higher vacancies. The operating expense ratio (the ratio of property operating expenses to rental revenue) increased to 41.9% in 2001 from 39.6% in 2000 and is due to the factors described above.
Depreciation of real estate increased to $40.0 million in 2001 from $36.3 million in 2000, and is directly attributable to a full year of depreciation of the 2000 acquisitions, depreciation on the 2001 acquisitions from their respective acquisition dates and the depreciation associated with capital improvements made during 2001 and 2000.
General and administrative expenses totaled 2.3% and 2.8% of rental income in 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Interest Income and Expense
The company earned interest income of $0.5 million in 2001 and $0.6 million in 2000 from the investment of its cash and cash reserves. The decrease in 2001 is mainly due to the decreasing interest rates in 2001 compared to 2000 as well as a decrease in average invested funds.
The company incurred $30.9 million and $17.7 million of interest expense in 2001 and 2000, respectively, associated with borrowings under its unsecured lines of credit and mortgage notes and amortization of deferred financing costs. During 2001 and 2000, the company incurred interest expense of $28.0 million and $7.9 million, respectively, associated with mortgage notes and $2.2 million and $9.3 million, respectively, associated with the unsecured facilities. The company amortized as interest expense deferred financing costs of $0.7 million in 2001 and $0.5 million in 2000. The increase in interest expense is due to the fixed and variable rate mortgage notes placed or assumed on 26 apartment communities during 2001, which was offset in part by decreasing interest rates on the company’s unsecured lines of credit during 2001. The overall weighted average interest rate for all borrowings was 6.8% and 7.2% during 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease in the weighted average rate is
attributable to lower fixed and variable interest rates in 2001 compared to 2000. Average debt, secured and unsecured, increased from $240 million in 2000 to $451 million in 2001. This increase is primarily attributable to $146.6 million in financing used to fund the cash portion of the exchange offer for the company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Shares and property acquisitions.
Comparable Property Operations
The company’s “same-community” portfolio consists of 69 stabilized apartment communities, containing 17,014 apartment homes, that the company has owned since January 1, 2000, representing approximately 82% of the company’s 20,686 apartment homes. The apartment communities sold in March 2000 have been eliminated from the calculation. On a comparative basis, same-community property operating income decreased 4% from 2000. Rental income remained the same while property operating expenses increased 8% from 2000. The company experienced an increase in property operating expenses due to higher real estate taxes and property insurance costs in 2001 versus 2000. Average monthly rental rates for the “same-community” portfolio increased 2.2% to $660 per apartment home in 2001 from $646 per apartment home in 2000. However, the majority of the increase was offset by lower occupancies.
The following is a reconciliation of same community property operating income to net income as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands):
Related-Party Transactions
During 2002, Mr. Glade M. Knight, the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of three extended-stay hotel REITs, Apple Suites, Inc., Apple Hospitality Two, Inc., and Apple Hospitality Five, Inc., and also owned companies which provided services to these entities. Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. acquired Apple Suites, Inc. in a merger transaction during the first quarter of 2003. During 2002 and 2001, the company provided real estate acquisition and offering-related and other services to Apple Suites, Inc. and Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. and received payment of approximately $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The majority of the payment is reflected as a reduction in the company’s general and administrative expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company’s primary sources of liquidity are rental income generated from the apartment communities, proceeds from unsecured lines of credit, reinvestment of distributions, and proceeds from secured debt.
The company has met and expects to continue to meet short-term liquidity requirements, generally through rental income generated from the apartment communities, equity raised from its dividend reinvestment plan, and borrowings on its lines of credit. It is expected that rental income will be adequate to meet all normal property operating expenses, payment of distributions, budgeted capital improvements, and scheduled principal payments of mortgage debt in 2003. At December 31, 2002, the company had $1.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The company expects to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities and possible property acquisitions, through secured or unsecured borrowings, possible refinancing, or through the disposition of certain assets that, in our evaluation, may no longer meet our investment requirements.
In September 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $50 million of the company’s common shares. Under this authorization, the company has, as of December 31, 2002, repurchased 1.9 million common shares at an average price of $10.85 per share for a total cost of $21.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the company repurchased 35,800 common shares at an average price of $10.25 per share for a total cost of $0.4 million.
On April 18, 2001, the company completed a tender offer for the company’s outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares (“Exchange Offer”). A total of 12.5 million preferred shares were tendered, representing 99% of the issued and outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares. Of the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares tendered, the holders of 0.7 million such shares received two common shares for each preferred share and the holders of 11.7 million shares received one common share and $12.25 in cash for each preferred share. The company issued a total of 13.2 million common shares and paid $143.8 million in cash in exchange for all of the preferred shares tendered in the Exchange Offer. The difference between the total consideration given and the carrying value of the preferred shares totaled approximately $27.5 million, including direct transaction expenses, and is included in the statement of operations as a reduction to arrive at net loss available to common shareholders. The preferred shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange on August 7, 2001. At December 31, 2002, 127,380 preferred shares remained outstanding.
During 2002 and 2001, the company obtained a total of $37.6 million and $206.9 million, respectively, in fixed and variable rate secured financing from three separate commercial lenders. The financings are secured by mortgages on 22 apartment communities. At the request of the lenders, the financings were provided to new wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company, which were formed for the special purpose of receiving the financing proceeds and holding the mortgaged apartment communities. The company continues to manage the apartment communities. All of these financings are reflected on the audited consolidated financial statements of the company.
Acquisitions
During 2002, the company acquired four apartment communities, comprising 900 apartment homes, for purchase prices totaling $71.1 million. The company committed in October 2001 to the acquisition of two of these apartment communities which were then under construction. These two apartment communities are combined with existing apartment communities owned by the company.
Notes Payable
Secured
Secured borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
(a)
Includes fair value adjustments aggregating $0.6 million in 2002 and $1.0 million in 2001 that were recorded in connection with eight apartment communities acquired in 1999 and 2001.
During 2002, the company entered into a $12.6 million fixed rate mortgage note which bears interest at 6.675% per annum. The mortgage note is payable in monthly installments, including principal and interest, and is secured by one apartment community. The company also entered into a $25 million variable rate mortgage note in conjunction with the acquisition of one apartment community. The note requires monthly payments of interest only.
The company assumed $16 million in variable rate mortgage notes in conjunction with the acquisition of two apartment communities in 2002. The notes require monthly installments, including principal and interest, and are secured by the two apartment communities.
Unsecured
During December 2002, the company’s $50 million unsecured line of credit with a commercial bank was increased to $75 million and the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2003. During 2002, the unsecured line of credit was subject to interest at LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The company is obligated to pay the lenders a quarterly commitment fee equal to .25% per annum of the unused portion of the line. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, borrowings on the unsecured line of credit were $75 million and $50 million, respectively.
The unsecured line of credit agreement contains certain covenants which, among other things, require maintenance of certain financial ratios and includes restrictions on the company’s ability to make distributions to its shareholders over certain amounts. At December 31, 2002, the company was in compliance with this agreement.
The company’s $7.5 million unsecured line of credit for general corporate purposes bears interest at one month LIBOR plus 120 basis points. The maturity date is March 31, 2003. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, borrowings under this arrangement were $2.9 million and $5 million, respectively.
The company is in the process of negotiating an extension to its lines of credit and intends to replace these lines of credit within the year with a combination of a longer-term secured debt arrangement and a reduced line of credit. The company has over 20 unencumbered apartment communities, which the company has the opportunity to use as collateral for a secured financing arrangement. Given the value of these properties and current financing opportunities available to the company, the company believes it will be able to obtain longer-term secured financing.
Capital Requirements
The company has an ongoing capital expenditure plan to fund its renovation program for its apartment communities. Capital expenditures include capital replacements, initial capital expenditures, and redevelopment enhancements. The company anticipates that it will continue to operate as it did in 2002 and fund these cash needs from a variety of sources including equity raised from its dividend reinvestment plan and debt provided by its lines of credit. Given the company’s current debt level, the company will seek to obtain additional debt financing from a variety of sources, both secured and unsecured, if necessary. On October 7, 2002, the company announced that, effective April 2003, its common share dividend policy will be to pay a regular quarterly cash dividend of $.20 per common share. For 2003, common share distributions would be reduced as a result of this policy by approximately $11.6 million based on the outstanding common shares at December 31, 2002.
Capital resources are expected to grow with the future sale of the company’s shares and from cash flows from operations. Approximately 12.6% of all 2002 common stock distributions, or $6.8 million, was reinvested in additional common shares. In general, the company’s liquidity and capital resources are believed to be sufficient to meet its cash requirements during 2003.
The company is operated as, and annually elects to be taxed as, a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, the company has no provision for federal income taxes, and thus there is no effect on the company’s liquidity from federal income taxes.
Operating Partnership
Effective October 1, 2001, State Street, LLC and State Street I, LLC, each a North Carolina limited liability company (collectively, the “Limited Partners”), and the company, as the sole general partner, formed Cornerstone NC Operating Limited Partnership, a Virginia limited partnership (the “Limited Partnership”). The company has approximately an 80% interest in the Limited Partnership. The Limited Partners are minority limited partners and are not otherwise related to the company. The Limited Partners contributed and agreed to contribute property to the Limited Partnership in exchange for preferred and non-preferred operating partnership units. The non-preferred operating partnership units convert into preferred operating partnership units over time or as certain lease-up and stabilization criteria are met. Beginning October 1, 2002, the Limited Partners became able to elect to redeem a portion of the preferred operating partnership units. If the Limited Partners make the election, the company, at its option, will convert the preferred operating partnership units into either common shares of the company on a one-for-one basis or cash in an amount per unit equal to the closing price of a common share of the company on the exercise date (or other specified price if there is no closing price on that date), subject to anti-dilution adjustments.
During 2002, the construction of 288 apartment homes located in North Carolina were completed and other criteria set forth in the partnership agreement were met. A total of 1,111,875 non-preferred operating partnership units were converted to preferred operating partnership units during 2002. There were 2,374,555 preferred and 319,715 non-preferred operating partnership units at December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002, no preferred operating partnership units had been exchanged. In January and March 2003, a total of 887,125 preferred operating partnership units were converted into common shares on a one-for-one basis.
Critical Accounting Policies
Capital Expenditures
The company capitalized expenditures related to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. Expenditures necessary to maintain an existing asset in ordinary operating condition, such as repairs and maintenance, are expensed as incurred.
The company capitalized $16.1 million of improvements to its various apartment communities during 2002. The asset preservation capital expenditures, including floor coverings, HVAC equipment, roofs, appliances, siding, exterior painting, parking lots, and other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures totaled $8.6 million. Revenue enhancing capital expenditures, including interior upgrades, gating and access systems totaled $3.6 million for 2002. Redevelopment expenditures, including amenities that add a material new feature or revenue source at our recently acquired apartment communities, totaled $3.9 million. The company is also required by various lenders to fund a replacement reserve in advance for capital improvements. Capital improvement costs during 2003 are currently expected to be consistent with those incurred in 2002. The company’s capital improvement budget is reviewed continually and adjustments will be made if deemed necessary.
Rental Revenue and Related Cost Recognition
Rental income and other income are recorded on an accrual basis. Rental concessions and direct lease costs associated with lease origination are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. The company’s apartment communities are leased under lease agreements that, typically, have terms that do not exceed one year. Deferred rental concessions and direct lease costs were $2.2 million and $1.7 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS No. 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. SFAS No. 148 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002. The company has adopted the new accounting standard effective as of the first quarter of fiscal year 2003.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Correction” (“SFAS No. 145”). Statement 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt” (“SFAS No. 4”), required that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt that were included in the determination of net income be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 will require the company to reclassify prior items into continuing operations, including those recorded in the current period, that do not meet the extraordinary classification. Additionally, future gains and losses related to debt extinguishment may be required to be classified in income from continuing operations. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 became effective in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. Currently, the company has not incurred such charges and is assessing the impact that this Statement will have on its financial statements.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” This statement requires that a liability for the fair value of a guarantee be recognized at the time the obligation is undertaken. The
statement also requires that the liability be measured over the term of the related guarantee. This statement is effective for all guarantees entered into subsequent to December 31, 2002. For all guarantees entered into prior to December 31, 2002, there is to be no change in accounting; however, disclosure of management’s estimate of its future obligation under the guarantee is to be made. The company currently does not have any guarantee obligations to which Interpretation 45 applies.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This statement refines the identification process of variable interest entities and how an entity assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. The company has formed wholly-owned subsidiaries for financing purposes and such financings is reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Currently, the company does not anticipate this Statement having a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Market Risk Disclosure
The company is subject to changes in the fair market value of its fixed rate secured debt amounting to $531.9 million at December 31, 2002. If market interest rates for fixed rate debt were 100 basis points higher at December 31, 2002, the fair value of fixed rate debt would decrease by $24.3 million to $507.6 million. If market interest rates for fixed rate debt were 100 basis points lower at December 31, 2002, the fair value of fixed rate debt would have increased from $531.9 million to $581.6 million.
The company has market risk exposure to short-term interest rates from variable rate borrowings under its existing unsecured line of credit and variable rate secured debt. The existing unsecured line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The company may utilize variable rate debt up to specified limits to total market capitalization. The company has analyzed its interest rate risk exposure. If market interest rates for these types of credit facilities average 100 basis points more in 2003 than they did in 2002, and the company’s line of credit was at the maximum of $75 million, and the variable rate secured debt remained at $71.9 million, the company’s interest expense would increase, and net income would decrease by $1.5 million. These amounts are determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the company’s borrowing cost. These analyses do not consider the effects of the reduced overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Further, in the event of a change of such magnitude, management would likely take actions to further mitigate its exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in the company’s financial structure.
Impact of Inflation
The company does not believe that inflation had any significant impact on its operations in 2002. Future inflation, if any, would likely cause increased property operating expenses, but the company believes that increases in property operating expenses would be more than offset by increases in rental income. Continued inflation may also cause capital appreciation of the company’s apartment communities over time, as rental rates and replacement costs increase.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 General Information and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business
Cornerstone Realty Income Trust, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “company”), a Virginia corporation, is an owner-operator of one business segment consisting of residential apartment communities in the southern regions of the United States. As of December 31, 2002, the company, as a general partner, has approximately an 80% interest in Cornerstone NC Operating Limited Partnership.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The company’s common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “TCR.”
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The fair market value of cash and cash equivalents approximates their carrying value.
Investment in Rental Property
The investment in rental property is recorded at cost, net of depreciation. The company records impairment losses on rental property used in operations if indicators of impairment are present, and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the respective properties are less than their carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the asset’s fair value less cost to sell, and its carrying value. No impairment losses have been recorded to date.
Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred while significant improvements, renovations and replacements are capitalized. The company capitalizes expenditures related to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. The company’s capital expenditures include floor coverings, HVAC equipment, roofs, appliances, siding, exterior painting, parking lots, interior upgrades, gating and access systems. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets which are 27.5 years for buildings, range from 10 to 27.5 years for major improvements and range from three to seven years for furniture and fixtures.
Development
The company capitalizes costs incurred during the development of the assets (including interest, property taxes, and other direct and indirect costs) when the development commences and ends when the asset is ready for leasing.
Income Recognition
Rental income, interest, and other income are recorded on an accrual basis. Rental concessions are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. The company’s apartment communities are leased under lease agreements that, typically, have terms that do not exceed one year. Deferred rental concessions were $1.1 million and $0.6 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Deferred Financing and Lease Origination Costs
Deferred costs consist of loan fees and related expenses which are amortized on a straight-line basis that approximates the effective interest method over the terms of the related notes. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs totaled $1.8 million and $0.9 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively.
CORNERSTONE REALTY INCOME TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
The company defers direct costs incurred to originate a lease which are amortized over the life of the lease which on an average is one year. Deferred lease origination costs were $1.1 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001.
Stock Incentive Plans
The company follows Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. As discussed in Note 6, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (“SFAS 123”) requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options.
Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the company’s employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.
Advertising Costs
Costs incurred for the production and distribution of advertising are expensed as incurred. Amounts expensed during 2002 were $2.0 million and $1.8 million for 2001 and 2000. These amounts are included in property and maintenance expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic and diluted earnings per common share are calculated in accordance with FASB Statement No. 128 “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the year. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares and operating partnership units are not included in dilutive earnings per share calculations since the impact is not dilutive.
Minority Interest in Operating Partnership
Interest in the Cornerstone NC Operating Limited Partnership held by a limited partner is represented by operating partnership units (“OP Units”), as discussed in Note 5 below. The operating partnership’s income is allocated to holders of OP Units based upon net income available to common shareholders and the weighted average number of OP Units outstanding to weighted average common shares outstanding plus OP Units outstanding during the period. OP Units can be exchanged for cash or common shares on a one-for-one basis, at the company’s option. Capital contributions, distributions, and profits and losses are allocated to minority interests in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement. OP Units as a percentage of total OP Units and shares outstanding were 4.7% at December 31, 2002.
Federal Income Taxes
The company is operated as, and annually elects to be taxed as, a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Generally, a real estate investment trust that complies with the provisions of the Code and distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders does not pay federal income taxes on its distributed income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes.
CORNERSTONE REALTY INCOME TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
The differences between net income available to common shareholders for financial reporting purposes and taxable income before dividend deductions, as well as differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of the company’s assets, relate primarily to temporary differences, principally real estate depreciation, tax deferral of certain gain on property sales and tax free mergers and acquisitions. The temporary differences in depreciation result from differences in the book and tax basis of certain real estate assets and the differences in the methods of depreciation and lives of the real estate assets.
For federal income tax purposes, distributions paid to common shareholders consist of ordinary income, capital gains, return of capital or a combination thereof. For the three years ended December 31, 2002, distributions paid per common share were classified as follows (unaudited):
In 2002 and 2001, of the total preferred distribution, 100% was taxable as ordinary income. In 2000, of the total preferred distribution, 86.6% was taxable as ordinary income and 13.4% was a long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Comprehensive Income
On January 1, 1998, the company adopted SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” The company does not currently have any items of comprehensive income requiring separate reporting and disclosure.
Reclassification
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS No. 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. SFAS No. 148 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002. The company will adopt the new accounting standard effective as of the first quarter of fiscal year 2003.
CORNERSTONE REALTY INCOME TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Correction” (“SFAS No. 145”). Statement 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt” (“SFAS No. 4”), required that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt that were included in the determination of net income be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 will require the company to reclassify prior items into continuing operations, including those recorded in the current period, that do not meet the extraordinary classification. Additionally, future gains and losses related to debt extinguishment may be required to be classified in income from continuing operations. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 became effective in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. Currently, the company has not incurred such charges and is assessing the impact that this Statement will have on its financial statements.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” This statement requires that a liability for the fair value of a guarantee be recognized at the time the obligation is undertaken. The statement also requires that the liability be measured over the term of the related guarantee. This statement is effective for all guarantees entered into subsequent to December 31, 2002. For all guarantees entered into prior to December 31, 2002, there is to be no change in accounting; however, disclosure of management’s estimate of its future obligation under the guarantee is to be made. The company currently does not have any guarantee obligations to which Interpretation 45 applies.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This statement refines the identification process of variable interest entities and how an entity assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. The company has formed wholly-owned subsidiaries for financing purposes and such financing is reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Currently, the company does not anticipate this Statement having a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Unsecured
During December 2002, the company’s $50 million unsecured line of credit with a commercial bank was increased to $75 million and the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2003. During 2002, the unsecured line of credit was subject to interest at LIBOR (the London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 90 basis points (2.46% average at December 31, 2002). The company is obligated to pay the lenders a quarterly commitment fee equal to .25% per annum of the unused portion of the line. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, borrowings on the unsecured line of credit were $75 million and $50 million, respectively.

Note 5 Operating Partnership and Shareholders’ Equity
Operating Partnership
Effective October 1, 2001, State Street, LLC and State Street I, LLC, each a North Carolina limited liability company (collectively, the “Limited Partners”), and the company, as the sole general partner, formed Cornerstone NC Operating Limited Partnership, a Virginia limited partnership (the “Limited Partnership”). The company has approximately an 80% interest in the Limited Partnership. The Limited Partners are minority limited partners and are not otherwise related to the company. The Limited Partners contributed and agreed to contribute property to the Limited Partnership in exchange for preferred and non-preferred operating partnership units. The non-preferred operating partnership units convert into preferred operating partnership units over time or as certain lease-up and stabilization criteria are met. Beginning October 1, 2002, the Limited Partners became able to elect to redeem a portion of the preferred operating partnership units. If the Limited Partners make the election, the company, at its option, will convert the preferred operating partnership units into either common shares of the company on a one-for-one basis or cash in an amount per unit equal to the closing price of a common share of the company on the exercise date (or other specified price if there is no closing price on that date), subject to anti-dilution adjustments.
During 2002, the construction of 288 apartment homes located in North Carolina were completed and other criteria set forth in the partnership agreement were met. A total of 1,111,875 non-preferred operating partnership units were converted to preferred operating partnership units during 2002. There were 2,374,555 preferred and 319,715 non-preferred operating partnership units at December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002, no preferred operating partnership units had been exchanged. In January and March 2003, a total of 887,125 preferred operating partnership units were converted into common shares on a one-for-one basis.
Preferred Stock
The company issued Series A Convertible Preferred Shares in July 1999. The company imputed dividends calculated as the present value difference between the perpetual preferred stock distribution and the stated distribution rate. The imputed dividend is reflected as additional non-cash preferred stock distributions. The company declared and paid total distributions of $2.3752 per share on the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares during 2002.
On April 18, 2001, the company completed a tender offer for the company’s outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares (“Exchange Offer”). A total of 12.5 million preferred shares were tendered, representing 99% of the issued and outstanding preferred shares. Of the preferred shares tendered, the holders of 0.7 million such shares received two common shares for each preferred share and the holders of 11.7 million shares received one common share and $12.25 in cash for each preferred share. The company issued a total of 13.2 million common shares and paid $143.8 million in cash in exchange for all of the preferred shares tendered in the Exchange Offer. The difference between the total consideration given and the carrying value of the preferred shares totaled approximately $27.5 million, including direct transaction expenses, and is included in the statement of operations as a reduction to arrive at net loss available to common shareholders. The preferred shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange on August 7, 2001. At December 31, 2002, 127,380 preferred shares remained outstanding.

Common Stock
During 2000, the company completed its $50 million common share repurchase program which was authorized by the Board of Directors in September 1999. The Board authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $50 million of the company’s common shares in September 2000. Pursuant to the additional authorization, the company has, as of December 31, 2002, repurchased 1.9 million common shares at an average price of $10.85 per share for a total cost of $21.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the company repurchased 35,800 common shares at an average price of $10.25 per share for a total cost of $0.4 million.
In 1997, the company adopted a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (as amended from time to time, “Plan”) which allows any recordholder to reinvest distributions without payment of any brokerage commissions or other fees. Of the total proceeds raised from common shares during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, $6.8 million, $6.5 million, and $6.1 million, respectively, were provided through the reinvestment of distributions.
Note 6 Benefits Plans
Stock Incentive Plan
Based on the outstanding shares, under the 1992 Incentive Plan, as amended, a maximum of 1.9 million options could be granted, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, to certain officers and key employees of the company. Under the Directors Plan, as amended, a maximum of 0.8 million options could be granted to the directors of the company. In 2002, the company granted 57,612 options to purchase shares under the Directors Plan.
Both of the plans provide, among other things, that options be granted at exercise prices not lower than the market value of the shares on the date of grant. Under the Incentive Plan, options become exercisable at the date of grant. Generally the optionee has up to 10 years from the date on which the options first become exercisable during which to exercise the options. The exercise prices of these options range from $9.63 to $12.125 per option. Activity in the company’s share option plans during the three years ended December 31, 2002 is summarized in the following table (in thousands, except per share data):
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if the company has accounted for its employee stock options

granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair value method described in that statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2002, 2001, and 2000:
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
For purposes of SFAS No. 123 pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period. As the options are immediately exercisable, the full impact of the pro forma adjustment to net income is disclosed below (in thousands, except per share data):
401(K) Savings Plan
Eligible employees of the company participate in a contributory employee savings plan. Under the plan, the company may match a percentage of contributions made by eligible employees, such percentage to apply to a maximum of 1% of their annual salary. Expenses under this plan for 2002, 2001 and 2000 were $82,427, $73,894, and $73,445, respectively.

Mr. Knight, the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of three extended stay hotel REITs, Apple Suites, Inc., Apple Hospitality Two, Inc., and Apple Hospitality Five, Inc., and also owns companies which provide services to these entities.

Note 10 Industry Segments
The company owns and operates multifamily apartment communities throughout the southern regions of the United States that generate rental and other property related income through the leasing of apartment homes to a diverse base of tenants. The company separately evaluates the performance of each of its apartment communities. However, because each of the apartment communities has similar economic characteristics, facilities, services, and tenants, the apartment communities have been aggregated into a single apartment communities segment. All segment disclosure is included in or can be derived from the company’s consolidated financial statements.
Note 11 Subsequent Events
On February 19, 2003, the company and Merry Land Properties, Inc, entered into a merger agreement in which Merry Land Properties, Inc. will merge into a subsidiary of the company. Merry Land owns interests in nine apartment communities containing approximately 2,000 units in Georgia, South Carolina and Florida. Merry Land shareholders will receive 1.818 common shares of the company and 0.220 shares of the company’s non-dividend paying Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for each Merry Land common share. The preferred stock will be convertible into 0.220 common shares of the company upon the completion and lease up of Merry Land’s Merritt at Whitemarsh project in Savannah, Georgia or in certain other circumstances. The total value of the common shares to be received by the Merry Land shareholders (including common shares received upon conversion) as of the date of the merger agreement was approximately $42 million. The company will assume approximately $94 million in debt and other liabilities.
The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2003, subject to the approval of Merry Land’s shareholders and other customary closing conditions. The proposed transaction can be terminated at Merry Land’s option, if the closing price of the company’s common shares is below $6.50 per share for 10 of any 30 consecutive trading days prior to the consummation of the merger.
In order to facilitate the merger transaction, a private company called Merry Land & Investment Company, LLC, has been formed by members of Merry Land’s management to buy Merry Land’s non-apartment assets, which the company did not desire, and to continue development of apartment projects for the company.
