At June 30, 2004, our shareholders’ equity was $153.1 million and our liabilities for borrowed funds were $50.9 million, including mortgage debt of consolidated LLCs of $22.3 million, which is non-recourse to us.
Effective March 31, 2004, we adopted Financial Interpretation No. 46R (“FIN 46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. Consequently, the June 30, 2004 Consolidated Balance Sheet includes the: (i) assets; (ii) liabilities; (iii) third-party borrowings, which are non-recourse to us, and; (iv) minority interests, of three of our LLC investments that meet the criteria of a variable interest entity and where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. As a result of FIN 46R, assets of $39.4 million and borrowings, which are non-recourse to us, of $22.3 million were recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2004. Also as a consequence of FIN 46R, beginning on April 1, 2004, we began consolidating the results of operations of these LLC investments on our Consolidated Statements of Income. Accordingly, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, our Consolidated Statements of Income included $1.6 million of revenue, $292,000 of depreciation & amortization expense, $582,000 of other operating expenses and $432,000 of interest expense recorded in connection with the consolidation of these LLCs. There was no impact on our net income as a result of the consolidation of these LLCs.

Funds from operations (“FFO”), is a widely recognized measure of REIT performance. Although FFO is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure, we believe that information regarding FFO is helpful to shareholders and potential investors. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than us. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, FFO should not be used as: (i) an indication of our financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP; (ii) as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP; (iii) as a measure of our liquidity; (iv) nor is FFO an indicator of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to shareholders.
