1. Organization
and Description of Business
American
Campus Communities, Inc. (the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust
(“REIT”) that was incorporated on March 9, 2004 and commenced operations
effective with the completion of an initial public offering (“IPO”) on August
17, 2004. Through the Company’s controlling interest in American Campus
Communities Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”) and American
Campus Communities Services, Inc., (the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary or
“TRS”), the Company is one of the largest owners, managers and developers of
high quality student housing properties in the United States in terms of beds
owned and under management. The Company is a fully integrated, self-managed
and
self-administered equity REIT with expertise in the acquisition, design,
financing, development, construction management, leasing and management of
student housing properties.
As
of
June 30, 2006, the Company’s property portfolio contained 38 student housing
properties with approximately 22,900 beds and approximately 7,400 apartment
units, consisting of 34 owned off-campus properties that are in close proximity
to colleges and universities and four on-campus participating properties
operated under ground/facility leases with the related university systems.
These
communities contain modern housing units, offer resort-style amenities and
are
supported by a resident assistant system and other student-oriented
programming.
Through
the TRS, the Company also provides construction management and development
services for student housing properties owned by colleges and universities,
charitable foundations, and others. As of June 30, 2006, the Company provided
third party management and leasing services for 19 student housing properties
(12 of which the Company served as the third party developer and construction
manager) that represented approximately 11,700 beds in approximately 4,400
units. Third party management and leasing services are typically provided
pursuant to multi-year management contracts that have initial terms that range
from one to five years. As of June 30, 2006, the Company’s total owned and
managed portfolio included 57 properties with approximately 34,600 beds in
approximately 11,800 units.

Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles
of Consolidation and Combination
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts
of
the Company, the Operating Partnership and the subsidiaries of the Operating
Partnership. The Company consolidates entities in which it has an ownership
interest and over which it exercises significant control over major operating
decisions, such as budgeting, investment and financing decisions. The real
estate entities included in the consolidated financial statements have been
consolidated only for the periods that such entities were under control by
the
Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. All dollar amounts in the tables herein, except
share and per share amounts, are stated in thousands unless otherwise indicated.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Interim
Financial Statements
The
accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited, but have been prepared
in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for
interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include
all
disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters)
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim
periods have been included. Because of the seasonal nature of the Company’s
operations, the results of operations and cash flows for any interim period
are
not necessarily indicative of results for other interim periods or for the
full
year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
AMERICAN
CAMPUS COMMUNITIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and
liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Investments
in Real Estate
Investments
in real estate are recorded at historical cost. Major improvements that extend
the life of an asset are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful
life of the asset. The cost of ordinary repairs and maintenance is charged
to
expense when incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:
Buildings
and improvements
|
|
7-40
years
|
Leasehold
interest - on-campus participating properties
|
|
25-34
years (shorter of useful life or respective lease term)
|
Furniture,
fixtures and equipment
|
|
3-7
years
|
The
cost
of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the property,
including legal fees and acquisition costs. Project costs directly associated
with the development and construction of an owned real estate project, which
include interest, property taxes, and amortization of deferred finance costs,
are capitalized as construction in progress. Upon completion of the project,
costs are transferred into the applicable asset category and depreciation
commences. Interest totaling approximately $0.7 million and $0.5 million was
capitalized during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively,
and $1.1 million and $0.8 million was capitalized during the six months ended
June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs
totaling approximately $31,000 and $32,000 was capitalized during the three
months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and approximately $0.1
million was capitalized during both the six months ended June 30, 2006 and
2005.
Management
assesses whether there has been an impairment in the value of the Company’s
investments in real estate whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is
recognized when estimated expected future cash flows (undiscounted and before
interest charges) are less than the carrying value of the property. The
estimation of expected future net cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies
on assumptions regarding current and future economics and market conditions.
If
such conditions change, then an adjustment to the carrying value of the
Company’s long-lived assets could occur in the future period in which the
conditions change. To the extent that a property is impaired, the excess of
the
carrying amount of the property over its estimated fair value is charged to
earnings. The Company believes that there were no impairments of the carrying
values of its investments in real estate as of June 30, 2006.
The
Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to net tangible
and
identified intangible assets based on relative fair values in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business
Combinations.
Fair
value estimates are based on information obtained from a number of sources,
including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the
acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data.
Information obtained about each property as a result of due diligence, marketing
and leasing activities is also considered. The value of in-place leases is
based
on the difference between (i) the property valued with existing in-place leases
adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued “as-if” vacant. As
lease terms are typically one year or less, rates on in-place leases generally
approximate market rental rates. Factors considered in the valuation of in-place
leases include an estimate of the carrying costs during the expected lease-up
period considering current market conditions, nature of the tenancy, and costs
to execute similar leases. Carrying costs include estimates of lost rentals
at
market rates during the expected lease-up period, as well as marketing and
other
operating expenses. The value of in-place leases is amortized over the remaining
initial term of the respective leases, generally less than one year. The
purchase price of property acquisitions is not expected to be allocated to
tenant relationships, considering the terms of the leases and the expected
levels of renewals. The Company’s allocation of purchase price is contingent
upon the final true-up of certain prorations.

TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Intangible
Assets
In
connection with property acquisitions completed during the six months ended
June
30, 2006 and 2005, the Company capitalized approximately $2.3 million and $1.1
million, respectively, related to management’s estimate of the fair value of the
in-place leases assumed. These intangible assets are amortized on a
straight-line basis over a term of approximately six months, which represents
the average remaining term of the underlying leases. The amortization is
included in depreciation expense in the accompanying consolidated statements
of
operations. See Note 3 for a detailed discussion of the property acquisitions
completed during the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Debt
Premiums and Discounts
Debt
premiums and discounts represent fair value adjustments to account for the
difference between the stated rates and market rates of debt assumed in
connection with the Company’s property acquisitions. The debt premiums and
discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related loans
using the effective-interest method. As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
unamortized debt premiums were $7.2 million and $4.4 million, respectively,
net
of unamortized debt discounts of $0.5 million and $-0-, respectively. Debt
premiums and discounts are included in secured debt on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets.
Third
Party Development Services Costs
Costs
associated with the pursuit of development and construction management contracts
are expensed as incurred, until such time that management believes it is
probable the contract will be executed. To the extent such costs will be
reimbursed from a third party, those costs are deferred and included in other
assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. If the costs will not
be
reimbursed, they are deferred and recognized in relation to the revenues earned
on executed contracts. Management evaluates the status of awarded projects
on a
periodic basis and expenses any deferred costs related to projects whose current
status indicates the costs may not provide future value to the Company in the
form of revenues. Such write-offs are included in third party development and
management services expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations. As of June 30, 2006, the Company has deferred approximately $3.5
million in pre-development costs related to awarded projects that have not
yet
commenced construction. Such costs are included in other assets in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for equity based awards in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (R),
Share-Based
Payment.
Accordingly, the Company has recognized compensation expense related to certain
restricted stock grants (see Note 9) over the underlying vesting periods, which
amounted to approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.3 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Income
Taxes
The
Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”). To continue to qualify as a REIT, the Company
must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including
a
requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable
income to its stockholders. As a REIT, the Company is generally not subject
to
corporate level federal income tax on taxable income it currently distributes
to
its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable
year,
it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including
any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a
REIT
for the subsequent four taxable years. Even though the Company qualifies for
taxation as a REIT, the Company could be subject to certain state and local
income and excise taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and
excise taxes on its undistributed income.
The
TRS
manages the Company’s non-REIT activities and is subject to federal, state and
local income taxes.

Other
Nonoperating Income
Other
nonoperating income of approximately $0.4 million for the six months ended
June
30, 2005 consists of a gain recognized related to insurance proceeds received
for a fire that occurred at one of the Company’s owned off-campus properties in
2003.
Income
Per Share
Basic
income per share is computed using net income and the weighted average number
of
shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period, including
restricted stock units (“RSUs”) issued to outside directors. RSUs are included
in both basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because
they were fully vested on the date of grant and all conditions required in
order
for the recipients to earn the RSUs have been satisfied. Diluted income per
share reflects weighted average common shares issuable from the assumed
conversion of unvested restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) granted to employees and
common and preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership (“Common Units” and “Series A Preferred Units,” respectively). See
Note 7 for a discussion of Common Units and Series A Preferred Units and Note
9
for a discussion of RSAs.

Property Acquisitions
On
March
1, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of a portfolio of 13 student
housing properties (the “Royal Portfolio”) pursuant to a contribution and sale
agreement with contributors affiliated with Royal Properties for a contribution
value of $244.3 million, which was paid as follows: (i) the issuance to certain
partners of the contributors of approximately 2.1 million Common Units valued
at
$23.50 per unit and approximately 0.1 million Series A Preferred Units valued
at
$26.75 per unit (See Note 7); (ii) the assumption of $123.6 million of
fixed-rate mortgage debt (see Note 8); and (iii) the remainder in cash and
promissory notes. As of June 30, 2006, the Company has incurred an additional
$4.9 million in closing costs and other external acquisition costs related
to
this acquisition.
The
Company retained approximately $6.9 million of the contribution value, which
will be utilized to satisfy indemnification obligations that may arise during
a
one-year survival period, with any remaining amounts to be paid to the
contributors upon expiration of such one-year survival period. The retained
amount is composed of Common Units, Series A Preferred Units, cash, and secured
promissory notes of approximately $1.9 million, payable on February 28, 2007
together with accrued interest at 4.39% per annum.
The
Royal
Portfolio consists of five properties in Florida, four properties in Texas,
two
properties in Tennessee, and one property each in Arizona and Kentucky. The
13
properties contain approximately 1,800 units and approximately 5,700 beds.
The
acquired properties’ results of operations have been included in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations since the acquisition date.
The following pro forma information for the three and six months ended June
30,
2006 and 2005 presents consolidated information for the Company as if the
property acquisitions discussed above, the 2005 acquisitions and the July 2005

Property Disposition and Discontinued Operations
In
November 2004, California State University - San Bernardino exercised its option
to purchase from the Company the University Village at San Bernardino off-campus
student housing property for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $28.3
million. This transaction was consummated in January 2005, resulting in net
proceeds of approximately $28.1 million. The resulting gain on disposition
of
approximately $5.9 million is included in discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended
June
30, 2005.
The
related net loss for the aforementioned property is reflected in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended
June
30, 2005, as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS No. 144,
Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
Total
revenues and operating expenses of $29,000 and $31,000, respectively, resulted
in a net loss of $2,000 through the property’s disposition date.

On-Campus Participating Properties
The
Company is a party to ground/facility lease agreements (“Leases”) with certain
state university systems and colleges (each, a “Lessor”) for the purpose of
developing, constructing, and operating student housing facilities on university
campuses. Under the terms of the Leases, title to the constructed facilities
is
held by the applicable Lessor and such Lessor receives a de minimus base rent
paid at inception and 50% of defined net cash flows on an annual basis through
the term of the lease. The Leases terminate upon the earlier to occur of the
final repayment of the related debt, the amortization period of which is
contractually stipulated, or the end of the lease term.
Pursuant
to the Leases, in the event the leasehold estates do not achieve Financial
Break
Even (defined as revenues less operating expenses, excluding management fees,
less debt service), the applicable Lessor would be required to make a rental
payment, also known as the Contingent Payment, sufficient to achieve Financial
Break Even. The Contingent Payment provision remains in effect until such time
as any financing placed on the facilities would receive an investment grade
rating without the Contingent Payment provision. In the event that the Lessor
is
required to make a Contingent Payment, future net cash flow distributions would
be first applied to repay such Contingent Payments and then to unpaid management
fees prior to normal distributions. Beginning in November 1999 and December
2002, as a result of the debt financing on the facilities achieving investment
grade ratings without the Contingent Payment provision, the Texas A&M
University System is no longer required to make Contingent Payments under either
the Prairie View A&M University Village or University College Leases. The
Contingent Payment obligation continues to be in effect for the Texas A&M
International University and University of Houston leases.
In
the
event the Company seeks to sell its leasehold interest, the Leases provide
the
applicable Lessor the right of first refusal of a bona fide purchase offer
and
an option to purchase the lessee’s rights under the applicable
Lease.
In
conjunction with the execution of each Lease, the Company has entered into
separate five-year agreements to manage the related facilities for 5% of defined
gross receipts. The five-year terms of the management agreements are not
contingent upon the continuation of the Leases. Upon expiration of the initial
five year terms, the agreements continue on a month-to-month basis.

7. Minority
Interests
The
Company consolidates the accounts of the Operating Partnership and its
subsidiaries into its consolidated financial statements. However, the Company
does not own 100% of the Operating Partnership and certain consolidated real
estate joint ventures. The amounts reported as minority interests on the
Company’s consolidated balance sheet reflect the portion of these consolidated
entities’ equity that the Company does not own. Accordingly, the amounts
reported as minority interest on the Company’s consolidated statements of
operations reflect the portion of these consolidated entities’ net income or
loss not allocated to the Company.
Equity
interests in the Operating Partnership not owned by the Company are held in
the
form of Common Units and Series A Preferred Units. On March 1, 2006,
approximately 2.1 million Common Units valued at $23.50 per unit and
approximately 0.1 million Series A Preferred Units valued at $26.75 per unit
were issued to individuals and entities affiliated with Royal Properties in
connection with the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio (see Note 3). Such Common
Units and Series A Preferred Units are exchangeable on or after March 1, 2007
into an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock, or, at the
Company’s election, cash. A Common Unit and a share of the Company’s common
stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they effectively
participate equally in the net income and distributions of the Operating
Partnership. Series A Preferred Units have a cumulative preferential per annum
cash distribution rate of 5.99%, payable quarterly concurrently with the payment
of dividends on the Company’s common stock.
Income
or
loss allocated to minority interests on the Company’s consolidated statements of
operations includes the Series A Preferred Unit distributions as well as the
pro
rata share of the Operating Partnership’s net income or loss allocated to Common
Units. The Common Unitholders’ minority interest in the Operating Partnership is
reported at an amount equal to their ownership percentage of the net equity
of
the Operating Partnership at the end of each reporting period. As of June 30,
2006, approximately 12% of the equity interests of the Operating Partnership
was
held by persons affiliated with Royal Properties and certain current and former
members of management (collectively, “Common Unitholders”) in the form of Common
Units and Series A Preferred Units. As of December 31, 2005, approximately
0.7%
of the equity interests of the Operating Partnership was held by certain current
and former members of management in the form of Common Units.
Minority
interests also include the equity interests of external joint venture partners
in three joint ventures. Two of the joint ventures serve to own and operate
the
Company’s Callaway House and University Village at Sweethome owned-off campus
properties, which are located near the campuses of Texas A&M University and
the State University of New York - Buffalo, respectively. The other joint
venture was formed to develop, own, and operate the Company’s Village at Newark
owned off-campus property, which is currently under development and is located
near the campuses of Rutgers University, New Jersey Institute of Technology
and
Essex County Community College.

Loans
Assumed or Entered Into in Conjunction with Property
Acquisitions
In
connection with the March 1, 2006 acquisition of the Royal Portfolio (see Note
3), the Company assumed approximately $123.6 million of fixed-rate mortgage
debt. At the time of assumption, the debt had a weighted average interest rate
of 5.95% and an average term to maturity of 6.3 years. Upon assumption of this
debt, the Company recorded debt premiums of approximately $2.9 million, net
of
discounts, to reflect the estimated fair value of the debt assumed.
The
above
mortgage loans are secured by the related properties.
Revolving
Credit Facility
The
Operating Partnership has a $100 million revolving credit facility, which may
be
expanded by up to an additional $100 million upon the satisfaction of certain
conditions. The maturity date of the facility is August 2007 and the Company
guarantees the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the facility.
Availability
under the revolving credit facility is limited to an "aggregate borrowing base
amount" equal to the lesser of (i) 65% of the value of certain properties,
calculated as set forth in the credit facility, and (ii) the adjusted net
operating income from these properties divided by a formula amount. The facility
bears interest at a variable rate, at the Company’s option, based upon a base
rate or one-, two-, three-, or six-month LIBOR plus, in each case, a spread
based upon the Company’s total leverage. Additionally, the Company is required
to pay an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.20% per annum, depending
on the aggregate unused balance. As of June 30, 2006, the balance outstanding
on
the revolving credit facility totaled $81.2 million, bearing interest at a
weighted average rate of 6.83%, with remaining availability under the facility
(subject to certain financial covenants) totaling approximately $17.6 million.
The
terms
of the facility include certain restrictions and covenants, which limit, among
other items, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, and the
disposition of assets. The facility contains customary affirmative and negative
covenants and also contains financial covenants that, among other things,
require the Company to maintain certain minimum ratios of "EBITDA" (earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense
and
fixed charges. Before June 30, 2006, the Company was not permitted to pay
distributions that exceeded 100% of funds from operations for any four
consecutive quarters. After June 30, 2006, the Company may not pay
distributions that exceed 95% of funds from operations for any four consecutive
quarters. The financial covenants also include consolidated net worth and
leverage ratio tests. As of June 30, 2006, the Company was in compliance with
all such covenants.

Incentive Award Plan
The
Company has adopted the 2004 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan
provides for the grant to selected employees and directors of the Company and
the Company’s affiliates of stock options, RSUs, RSAs, and other stock-based
incentive awards. The Company has reserved a total of 1,210,000 shares of the
Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to the Plan, subject to certain
adjustments for changes in the Company’s capital structure, as defined in the
Plan. As of June 30, 2006, the Company has issued 623,624 awards under the
Plan.

10.
Interest
Rate Hedges
In
connection with the December 2003 extension of a construction note payable
for
Cullen Oaks, an on-campus participating property, the Company’s predecessor
entered into an interest rate swap on November 19, 2003 (effective December
15,
2003 through November 15, 2008) that was designated to hedge its exposure to
fluctuations on interest payments attributed to changes in interest rates
associated with payments on its advancing construction note payable. Under
the
terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of
5.5%
and receives a floating rate of LIBOR plus 1.9%. The interest rate swap had
an
estimated fair value of approximately $0.7 million and $0.5 million at June
30,
2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, and is reflected in other assets
in
the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The
Company does not expect to reclassify a material amount of net gains on hedge
instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings in 2006.
Ineffectiveness resulting from the Company’s hedges is not
material.
11.
Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
Development-related
guarantees: The
Company commonly provides alternate housing and project cost guarantees, subject
to force majeure. These guarantees are typically limited, on an aggregate basis,
to the amount of the projects’ related development fees or a contractually
agreed-upon maximum exposure amount. Alternate housing guarantees typically
expire five days after construction is complete and generally require the
Company to provide substitute living quarters and transportation for students
to
and from the university if the project is not complete by an agreed-upon
completion date. Project cost guarantees hold the Company responsible for the
cost of a project in excess of an approved budget. The budget consists primarily
of costs included in the general contractors’ guaranteed maximum price contract
(“GMP”). In most cases, the GMP obligates the general contractor, subject to
force majeure and approved change orders, to provide completion date guarantees
and to cover cost overruns and liquidated damages. In addition, the GMP is
typically secured with payment and performance bonds. Project cost guarantees
expire upon completion of certain developer obligations, which are normally
satisfied within one year after completion of the project.
AMERICAN
CAMPUS COMMUNITIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On
one
completed project, the Company has guaranteed losses up to $3.0 million in
excess of the development fee if the loss is due to any failure of the Company
to maintain, or cause its professionals to maintain, required insurance for
a
period of five years after completion of the project (August 2009).
The
Company’s estimated maximum exposure amount under the above guarantees is
approximately $9.2 million.
At
June
30, 2006, management does not anticipate any material deviations from schedule
or budget related to third party development projects currently in
progress. The Company has estimated the fair value of guarantees entered
into or modified after December 31, 2002, the effective date of FASB
Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,
to be
immaterial.
In
the
normal course of business, the Company enters into various development-related
purchase commitments with parties that provide development-related goods and
services. In the event that the Company was to terminate development
services prior to the completion of projects under construction, the Company
could potentially be committed to satisfy outstanding purchase orders with
such
parties.
Contract
to Acquire Development Property:
The
Company is under contract to acquire a $24.8 million development property in
Waco, Texas. The closing of this transaction is dependent upon completion of
construction and lease-up and the achievement of certain occupancy levels and
rental rates. There can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied
or that this acquisition will be consummated. If the Company were to acquire
the
property, the transaction would be consummated in the third quarter of
2006.
Contingencies
Litigation:
In
the
normal course of business, the Company is subject to claims, lawsuits, and
legal
proceedings. While it is not possible to ascertain the ultimate outcome of
such
matters, management believes that the aggregate amount of such liabilities,
if
any, in excess of amounts provided or covered by insurance, will not have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of
operations of the Company.
Environmental
Matters: The
Company is not aware of any environmental liability with respect to the
properties that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
assets or results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that such
a
material environmental liability does not exist. The existence of any such
material environmental liability could have an adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations and cash flows.
12.
Segments
The
Company defines business segments by their distinct customer base and service
provided. The Company has identified four reportable segments: Owned Off-Campus
Properties, On-Campus Participating Properties, Development Services, and
Property Management Services. Management evaluates each segment’s performance
based on operating income before depreciation, amortization, minority interests
and allocation of corporate overhead. Intercompany fees are reflected at the
contractually stipulated amounts.

Forward-looking
Statements
This
report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements
presented in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing
from
time to time, are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions made by, and
information currently available to, management. When used, the words
“anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,”
“project,” “should,” “will,” “result” and similar expressions, which do not
relate solely to historical matters, are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions
and may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and
factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or
projected. We caution you that while forward-looking statements reflect our
good
faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance
and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements.
We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly,
investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements,
which are based on results and trends at the time they were made, to anticipate
future results or trends.
Some
of
the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance
or
achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: general risks
affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability
to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants’ financial condition, and
competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate); risks
associated with changes in University admission or housing policies; risks
associated with the availability and terms of financing and the use of debt
to
fund acquisitions and developments; failure to manage effectively our growth
and
expansion into new markets or to integrate acquisitions successfully; risks
and
uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including,
without limitation, construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain
necessary permits and public opposition to such activities); risks associated
with downturns in the national and local economies, increases in interest rates,
and volatility in the securities markets; costs of compliance with the Americans
with Disabilities Act and other similar laws; potential liability for uninsured
losses and environmental contamination; risks associated with our potential
failure to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
“Code”), as amended, and possible adverse changes in tax and environmental laws;
and risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued
service is not guaranteed.
The
risks
included here are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect
our business and financial performance, including factors and risks included
in
other sections of this report. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and
rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and
it
is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it
assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to
which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these
risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.
Our
Company and Our Business
American
Campus Communities, Inc. (referred to herein as “the Company,” “us,” “we,” and
“our”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated on March
9, 2004 and commenced operations effective with the completion of our initial
public offering (“IPO”) on August 17, 2004. Through our controlling interest in
American Campus Communities Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating
Partnership”) and American Campus Communities Services, Inc., (our taxable REIT
subsidiary or “TRS”), we are one of the largest owners, managers and developers
of high quality student housing properties in the United States in terms of
beds
owned and under management. We are a fully integrated, self-managed and
self-administered equity REIT with expertise in the acquisition, design,
financing, development, construction management, leasing and management of
student housing properties.
As
of
June 30, 2006, our property portfolio contained 38 student housing properties
with approximately 22,900 beds and approximately 7,400 apartment units,
consisting of 34 owned off-campus properties that are in close proximity to
colleges and universities and four on-campus participating properties operated
under ground/facility leases with the related university systems. These
communities contain modern housing units, offer resort-style amenities and
are
supported by a resident assistant system and other student-oriented
programming.
Through
the TRS, we also provide construction management and development services for
student housing properties owned by colleges and universities, charitable
foundations, and others. As of June 30, 2006, we provided third party management
and leasing services for 19 student housing properties (12 of which we served
as
the third party developer and construction manager) that represented
approximately 11,700 beds in approximately 4,400 units. Third party management
and leasing services are typically provided pursuant to multi-year management
contracts that have initial terms that range from one to five years. As of
June
30, 2006, our total owned and managed portfolio included 57 properties with
approximately 34,600 beds in approximately 11,800 units.
Our
development and construction management services as of June 30, 2006 consisted
of six projects under contract and currently in progress with fees ranging
from
$0.3 million to $3.5 million. As of June 30, 2006, fees of approximately $2.2
million remained to be earned by us with respect to these projects, which have
scheduled completion dates of August 2006 through July 2008. In addition, as
of
June 30, 2006, we had been awarded four projects which have not yet commenced
construction.
While
we
believe that our third party development/construction management and property
management services allow us to develop strong and key relationships with
colleges and universities, revenue from this area has over time become a smaller
portion of our operations due to the continued focus on and growth of our owned
property portfolio. Nevertheless, we believe these services continue to provide
synergies with respect to our ability to identify, acquire or develop, and
successfully operate, student housing properties.
Acquisitions
On
March
1, 2006, we completed the acquisition of a portfolio of 13 student housing
properties (the “Royal Portfolio”) pursuant to a contribution and sale agreement
with contributors affiliated with Royal Properties for a contribution value
of
$244.3 million, which was paid as follows: (i) the issuance to certain partners
of the contributors of approximately 2.1 million Common Units valued at $23.50
per unit and approximately 0.1 million Series A Preferred Units valued at $26.75
per unit; (ii) the assumption of $123.6 million of fixed-rate mortgage debt;
and
(iii) the remainder in cash and promissory notes. As of June 30, 2006, we have
incurred an additional $4.9 million in closing costs and other external
acquisition costs related to this acquisition.
We
retained approximately $6.9 million of the contribution value, which will be
utilized to satisfy indemnification obligations that may arise during a one-year
survival period with any remaining amounts to be paid to the contributors upon
expiration of such one-year survival period. The retained amount is composed
of
Common Units, Series A Preferred Units, cash, and secured promissory notes
of
approximately $1.9 million, payable on February 28, 2007 together with accrued
interest at 4.39% per annum.
The
Royal
Portfolio consists of five properties in Florida, four properties in Texas,
two
properties in Tennessee, and one property each in Arizona and Kentucky. The
13
properties contain approximately 1,800 units and approximately 5,700 beds.
Owned
Development Activities
Overview:
As of
June 30, 2006, we were in the process of constructing two owned off-campus
properties. We estimate that the total development costs relating to these
activities will be approximately $110.4 million. As of June 30, 2006, we have
incurred development costs of approximately $61.9 million in connection with
these properties, with the remaining development costs estimated at
approximately $48.5 million. The activities are described below:
Village
at Newark:
As of
June 30, 2006, our Village at Newark owned off-campus property was under
construction with total development costs estimated to be approximately $72.9
million. The project is scheduled to complete construction in Summer 2007 and
open for occupancy in Fall 2007 in connection with the commencement of the
2007/2008 academic year. As of June 30, 2006, the project was approximately
45%
complete and we estimate that remaining development costs will be approximately
$43.8 million. As of June 30, 2006, we have funded $25.1 million of the
project’s development costs internally, with the remaining development costs to
be funded through a construction loan.
Callaway
Villas:
As of
June 30, 2006, our Callaway Villas owned off-campus property was under
construction with total development costs estimated to be approximately $37.5
million. The project is scheduled to be completed in August 2006 in connection
with the commencement of the 2006/2007 academic year. As of June 30, 2006,
the
project was approximately 91% complete, and we anticipate incurring remaining
development costs of approximately $4.7 million, which will be funded through
the construction loan.

Off-Campus Properties Operations
Revenues
from our owned off-campus properties for the three months ended June 30, 2006
compared with the same period in 2005 increased by $8.8 million primarily due
to
the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio on March 1, 2006 and the completion
of
construction and opening of University Village at Sweet Home in August 2005.
Operating expenses increased approximately $4.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2006 compared with the same period in 2005, primarily due to
the
same factors which affected the increase in revenues.
New
Property Operations.
On March
1, 2006, we acquired the Royal Portfolio, which consists of 13 properties
containing 5,745 beds located in Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Arizona and
Kentucky. In addition, in August 2005 we completed construction of and opened
an
828-bed property serving the State University of New York - Buffalo. These
new
properties contributed $8.5 million of additional revenues and $4.4 million
of
additional operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2006 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005.
Same
Store Property Operations (Excluding New Property Activity).
We had
18 properties containing 10,244 beds which were operating during both the three
months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. These properties produced revenues of
$15.5
million and $15.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively, an increase of $0.5 million. This increase was primarily due
to an
increase in average rental rates during the three months ended June 30, 2006
as
compared to the same period in 2005, as well as the improved lease up for the
2005/2006 academic year, which resulted in average occupancy rates increasing
to
93.7% during the three months ended June 30, 2006 from 92.8% during the three
months ended June 30, 2005. Revenues in 2006 will be dependent on our ability
to
obtain appropriate rental rates and desired occupancy for the 2006/2007 academic
year at our various properties during our leasing period, which typically begins
in January and ends in August.
At
these
existing properties, operating expenses remained relatively constant at $6.9
million for both the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. We anticipate
that operating expenses for the full year 2006 will increase slightly as
compared with 2005 as a result of expected increases in insurance costs, utility
costs, property taxes and general inflation.
On-Campus
Participating Properties (“OCPP”) Operations
New
Property Operations.
In
August 2005, we completed construction of and opened an additional phase of
our
Cullen Oaks property, consisting of 180 units and 354 beds. This additional
phase contributed approximately $0.5 million of additional revenues and
approximately $0.2 million of additional operating expenses during the three
months ended June 30, 2006.
Same
Store OCPP Operations.
We had
four participating properties containing 4,167 beds which were operating during
both the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Revenues from our
same store on-campus participating properties decreased to $3.0 million during
the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $3.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of $0.1 million. This decrease was primarily
due
to a decrease in average occupancy from 39.9% during the three months ended
June
30, 2005 to 38.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was
slightly offset by an increase in average rental rates during the respective
periods. Occupancy at our on-campus participating properties is typically low
in
the second and third quarter of each calendar year due to the expiration of
the
9 month leases at these properties concurrent with the end of the spring
semester.
At
these
existing properties, operating expenses remained relatively constant at $2.0
million for both the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. We anticipate
that operating expenses for the full year 2006 will increase slightly as
compared with 2005 as a result of expected increases in insurance costs, utility
costs and general inflation.
Third
Party Development Services Revenue
Third
party development services revenue decreased by $0.2 million from $1.3 million
during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $1.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a lower percentage
of
construction completed during the three months ended June 30, 2006 as compared
to the same period in 2005. This decrease was slightly offset by more projects
in progress and a higher average contractual fee per project during the three
months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Of the total
contractual fees of the projects in progress during the respective periods,
approximately 10% of the total contractual fees was recognized during the three
months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to approximately 18% for the three
months ended June 30, 2005. We had six projects in progress during the three
months ended June 30, 2006 with an average contractual fee of approximately
$1.7
million, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005, in which we had
five projects in progress with an average contractual fee of $1.4 million.
Development
services revenues are dependent on our ability to successfully be awarded such
projects, the amount of the contractual fee related to the project and the
timing and completion of the construction of the project. In addition, to the
extent projects are completed under budget, we may be entitled to a portion
of
such savings, which are recognized as revenue upon third party verification
of
the project costs. It is possible that projects for which we have deferred
pre-development costs will not close and that we will not be reimbursed for
such
costs. The pre-development costs associated therewith will ordinarily be charged
against income for the then-current period.
Third
Party Management Services Revenues
Third
party management services revenues increased by $0.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. This increase
was primarily the result of improved fee income from contracts managed during
both periods and the addition of four new contracts, which was offset by the
loss of five management contracts between the respective periods. We anticipate
that revenues in our third party management segment in 2006 will decrease
slightly as compared with 2005, as a result of the discontinuation of the Texas
State University System management contracts in July 2006, which should be
slightly offset by the addition of three management contracts with anticipated
commencement dates in August 2006.
Third
Party Development and Management Services Expenses
Third
party development and management services expenses decreased by $0.2 million,
from $1.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2005, to $1.4 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to
fewer expenses incurred in the second quarter of 2006 as compared to 2005 in
relation to the West Virginia University projects. Expenses in our third party
development segment in 2006 will be dependent on the level of awards we pursue,
and as previously mentioned, any pre-development costs charged against income
for projects which did not close.
Resident
Services
Resident
services revenue represents revenue earned by our TRS related to the provision
of certain services to residents at our properties, such as food service,
housekeeping, and resident programming activities. Revenue from resident
services increased by $0.1 million, to $0.3 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2006, as compared to $0.2 million during the three months ended
June 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to additional revenue earned
during the three months ended June 30, 2006 from the acquisition of the Royal
Portfolio on March 1, 2006 and the completion of construction and opening of
University Village at Sweet Home in August 2005. We anticipate that resident
services revenues will continue to increase in 2006 as compared to 2005 as
additional revenues are generated from the timing of acquisitions and the
completion of construction properties placed in service.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses decreased approximately $0.1 million from $1.9
million during the three months ended June 30, 2005, to $1.8 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a $0.4
million compensation charge recorded during the three months ended June 30,
2005
to reflect a separation agreement entered into with a former executive officer
in April 2005. This decrease was offset by an increase in payroll and other
related costs as a result of overall increases in corporate staffing levels
due
to the recent growth experienced in our owned off-campus portfolio.
Depreciation
and Amortization
Depreciation
and amortization increased by $2.7 million, from $4.5 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2005 to $7.2 million for the three months ended June
30,
2006. This increase was due to the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio on March
1, 2006, the opening of one owned off-campus property in August 2005, and the
completion of an additional phase at an on-campus participating property in
August 2005. We expect depreciation and amortization in 2006 to increase
significantly from 2005 levels primarily due to 2006 acquisitions and a full
year of depreciation on properties acquired and placed into service in 2005.
Amortization
of deferred financing costs increased $0.1 million, from $0.3 million during
the
three months ended June 30, 2005, to $0.4 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to debt assumed in connection
with the previously mentioned Royal Portfolio acquisition and additional finance
costs incurred in June 2005 related to an amendment to our revolving credit
facility. We expect amortization of deferred financing costs for the full year
2006 to increase from 2005 levels due to a full year of amortization related
to
debt assumed in connection with our previously mentioned property acquisitions.
Interest
Expense
Interest
expense increased $2.4 million, from $4.6 million during the three months ended
June 30, 2005, to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. This
increase was primarily due to additional interest incurred during the three
months ended June 30, 2006 associated with debt assumed in connection with
the
previously mentioned Royal Portfolio acquisition, net of the amortization of
debt premiums and discounts recorded to reflect the market value of debt
assumed. In addition, we incurred additional interest expense during the three
months ended June 30, 2006 related to the $81.2 million outstanding balance
on
our revolving credit facility, $67.0 million of which was incurred to finance
our acquisition of the Royal Portfolio on March 1, 2006 and the remainder of
which was used to fund our current owned development activities and
distributions to shareholders and unitholders. These increases were offset
by an
increase in capitalized interest as a result of two owned off-campus properties
being under construction during the three months ended June 30, 2006 as compared
to one property being under construction during the three months ended June
30,
2005. We anticipate that interest expense in 2006 will increase from 2005 levels
due to interest expense assumed in connection with property acquisitions and
expected increases in potential borrowing rates that may impact the floating
rate on our revolving credit facility.
Income
Taxes
Our
TRS
manages our non-REIT activities and is subject to federal, state and local
income taxes. As such, our TRS is required to recognize the future tax benefits
attributable to deductible temporary differences between book and tax basis,
to
the extent that the asset will be realized. An income tax benefit of
approximately $0.1 million was recorded by our TRS during the three months
ended
June 30, 2005 to better reflect the anticipated realization of our deferred
tax
asset based on management’s estimate of future taxable income of our TRS.
Management determined that no such provision was required for the three months
ended June 30, 2006. The amount of income taxes to be recognized is dependent
on
the operating results of the TRS.
Minority
Interests
Minority
interests share of net loss increased by $0.2 million for the three months
ended
June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. This increase was due
to
the issuance of Common Units and Series A Preferred Units in our Operating
Partnership on March 1, 2006 in connection with our acquisition of the Royal
Portfolio. See Note 7 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in Item 1 herein for a detailed discussion of Common Units
and Series A Preferred Units.

Owned
Off-Campus Properties Operations
Revenues
from our owned off-campus properties for the six months ended June 30, 2006
compared with the same period in 2005 increased by $15.9 million primarily
due
to the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio on March 1, 2006, the acquisition
of
seven properties during the first quarter of 2005 and the completion of
construction and opening of University Village at Sweet Home in August 2005.
Operating expenses increased approximately $7.4 million for the six months
ended
June 30, 2006 compared with the same period in 2005, primarily due to the same
factors which affected the increase in revenues.
New
Property Operations.
On March
1, 2006, we acquired the Royal Portfolio and on various dates during the three
months ended March 31, 2005, we acquired seven properties containing 3,118
beds
located in Florida and Texas. In addition, in August 2005 we completed
construction of and opened an 828-bed property serving the State University
of
New York - Buffalo. These new properties contributed $15.4 million of additional
revenues and $7.2 million of additional operating expenses during the six months
ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
2005.
Same
Store Property Operations (Excluding New Property Activity).
We had
11 properties containing 7,126 beds which were operating during both the six
month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. These properties produced revenues
of $22.2 million and $21.5 million during the six month periods ended June
30,
2006 and 2005, respectively, an increase of $0.7 million. This increase was
primarily due to an increase in average rental rates during the six months
ended
June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005, as well as the improved
lease up for the 2005/06 academic year, which resulted in average occupancy
rates increasing to 95.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2006 from 95.0%
during the six months ended June 30, 2005.
At
these
existing properties, operating expenses increased to $8.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 from $8.8 million for the six months ended June
30,
2005, an increase of $0.1 million.
On-Campus
Participating Properties (“OCPP”) Operations
New
Property Operations.
In
August 2005, we completed construction of and opened an additional phase at
our
Cullen Oaks property, consisting of 180 units and 354 beds. This additional
phase contributed approximately $1.1 million of additional revenues and
approximately $0.4 million of additional operating expenses during the six
months ended June 30, 2006.
Same
Store OCPP Operations. We
had
four participating properties containing 4,167 beds which were operating during
both the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Revenues from our
same
store on-campus participating properties decreased to $8.4 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2006 from $8.6 million for the six months ended
June
30, 2005, a decrease of $0.2 million. This decrease was primarily due to a
decrease in average occupancy from 67.1% during the six months ended June 30,
2005 to 63.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was slightly
offset by an increase in average rental rates during the respective periods.
Occupancy at our on-campus participating properties is typically low in the
second and third quarter of each calendar year due to the expiration of the
9
month leases at these properties concurrent with the end of the spring
semester.
At
these
existing properties, operating expenses decreased to $3.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 from $3.9 million for the six months ended June
30,
2005, a decrease of $0.1 million.
Third
Party Development Services Revenue
Third
party development services revenue increased by $0.7 million from $2.0 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $2.7 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to more projects in
progress as well as a higher average contractual fee per project during the
six
months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. We had seven
projects in progress during the six months ended June 30, 2006 with an average
contractual fee of approximately $1.6 million, as compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2005 in which we had five projects in progress with an average
contractual fee of $1.4 million. As an offset to the factors discussed above,
a
lower percentage of the contractual fees was recognized during the six months
ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Of the total
contractual fees of the projects in progress during the respective periods,
approximately 23% of the total contractual fees was recognized during the six
months ended June 30, 2006, compared to approximately 27% for the six months
ended June 30, 2005.
Resident
Services
Revenue
from resident services increased by $0.2 million, to $0.6 million during the
six
months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to $0.4 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to additional revenue
earned during the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the acquired properties
discussed above and the completion of construction and opening of University
Village at Sweet Home in August 2005.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses increased approximately $0.1 million from $3.3
million during the six months ended June 30, 2005, to $3.4 million for the
six
months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to an increase
in
payroll and other related costs as a result of overall increases in corporate
staffing levels due to recent growth in our owned off-campus portfolio from
the
property acquisitions completed in 2006 and 2005. The increase in payroll and
other related costs was offset by a $0.4 million compensation charge recorded
during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to reflect a separation agreement
entered into with a former executive officer in April 2005.
Depreciation
and Amortization
Depreciation
and amortization increased by $4.6 million, from $7.9 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2005 to $12.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2006. This increase was due to the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio on March
1, 2006, the acquisition of seven properties during the six months ended June
30, 2005, and the opening of one owned off-campus property and an additional
phase at an on-campus participating property in August 2005.
Amortization
of deferred financing costs increased $0.2 million from $0.5 million to $0.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. This
increase was primarily due to debt assumed in connection with the previously
mentioned Royal Portfolio acquisition and additional finance costs incurred
in
June 2005 related to an amendment to our revolving credit facility.
Interest
Income
Interest
income increased by $0.2 million, from $0.1 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2005 to $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This
increase was primarily due to interest earned on the remaining proceeds from
our
July 2005 equity offering, prior to those funds being used for the acquisition
of the Royal Portfolio.
Interest
Expense
Interest
expense increased $4.0 million from $8.4 million to $12.4 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. This increase was primarily
due to additional interest incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2006
associated with debt assumed in connection with the previously mentioned 2006
and 2005 acquisitions, net of the amortization of debt premiums and discounts
recorded to reflect the market value of debt assumed. In addition, we incurred
additional interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2006 related
to
the $81.2 million outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility, $67.0
million of which was incurred to finance our acquisition of the Royal Portfolio
on March 1, 2006 and the remainder of which was used to fund our owned
development activities and distributions to shareholders and unitholders. We
also incurred additional interest in 2006 related to the construction loan
incurred to fund the additional phase at an on-campus participating property
that opened in August 2005. These increases were offset by an increase in
capitalized interest as a result of two owned off-campus properties being under
construction during the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to one
property being under construction during the six months ended June 30,
2005.
Other
Nonoperating Income
Other
non-operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 represents a gain
of
approximately $0.4 million related to insurance proceeds received for a fire
that occurred at one of our owned off-campus properties in 2003.
Minority
Interests
Minority
interests increased by $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006
as
compared to the same period in 2005. This increase was due to the issuance
of
Common Units and Series A Preferred Units in our Operating Partnership on March
1, 2006 in connection with our acquisition of the Royal Portfolio.
Discontinued
Operations
Our
University Village at San Bernardino property was sold to Cal State University
-
San Bernardino in January 2005. The net operating loss attributable to this
property and the resulting gain on disposition are included in discontinued
operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
Cash
Flows
Comparison
of Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005
Operating
Activities
For
the
six months ended June 30, 2006, net cash provided by operating activities was
$11.4 million, as compared to $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30,
2005, an increase of $5.5 million. This change was primarily due to an
increase in depreciation and amortization resulting from the acquisition of
the
Royal Portfolio on March 1, 2006, the acquisition of seven properties during
the
six months ended June 30, 2005, and the opening of one owned off-campus property
and an additional phase at an on-campus participating property in August 2005.
Investing
Activities
Investing
activities utilized $109.7 million and $81.4 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This increase related primarily to
proceeds received from the sale of our University Village at San Bernardino
property in January 2005 as well as an increase in cash used to fund the
construction of our owned off-campus development properties. During the six
months ended June 30, 2006, two owned off-campus properties were under
development while only one property was under development during the six months
ended June 30, 2005, which was completed in Fall 2005. These increases were
offset by development costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2005
on an additional phase of an on-campus participating property that was completed
in Fall 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, our cash used
in
investing activities was comprised of the following:

Financing
Activities
Cash
provided by financing activities totaled $83.1 million and $75.3 million for
the
six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in cash
provided by financing activities was the result of a $42.8 million increase
in
proceeds received from our revolving credit facility, net of paydowns, which
was
primarily used to fund the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio, and $13.9 million
in proceeds from a construction loan used to fund one of our owned development
properties. These increases were offset by the receipt of proceeds from a $38.8
million bridge loan during the six months ended June 30, 2005, a $7.7 million
decrease in proceeds from a construction loan used to fund an additional phase
of an on-campus participating property that was completed in Fall 2005 and
a
$3.1 million increase in distributions to common and restricted stockholders
as
a result of the July 2005 equity offering.
Structure
of On-campus Participating Properties
At
our
on-campus participating properties, the subject universities own both the land
and improvements. We then have a leasehold interest under a ground/facility
lease. Under the lease, we receive an annual distribution representing 50%
of
these properties’ net cash available for distribution after payment of operating
expenses (which includes our management fees), debt service (which includes
repayment of principal) and capital expenditures. We also manage these
properties under multi-year management agreements and are paid a management
fee
representing 5% of receipts.
We
do not
have access to the cash flows and working capital of these participating
properties except for the annual net cash distribution as described above.
Additionally, a substantial portion of these properties’ cash flow is dedicated
to capital reserves required under the applicable property indebtedness and
to
the amortization of such indebtedness. These amounts do not increase our
economic interest in these properties since our interest, including our right
to
share in the net cash available for distribution from the properties, terminates
upon the amortization of their indebtedness. Our economic interest in these
properties is therefore limited to our interest in the net cash flow and
management and development fees from these properties, as reflected in our
calculation of Funds from Operations modified for the operational performance
of
on-campus participating properties (“FFOM”) contained herein. Accordingly, when
considering these properties’ contribution to our operations, we focus upon our
share of these properties’ net cash available for distribution and the
management fees that we receive from these properties, rather than upon their
contribution to our gross revenues and expenses for financial reporting
purposes.
The
following table reflects the amounts related to our on-campus participating
properties included in our consolidated financial statements for the three

six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005:

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Cash
Balances and Liquidity
As
of
June 30, 2006, excluding our on-campus participating properties, we had $14.0
million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as compared to $27.2
million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31,
2005. This decrease was primarily due to the use of the remaining proceeds
from
our July 2005 equity offering to fund the acquisition of the Royal Portfolio
on
March 1, 2006 and the construction of our owned development properties.
Restricted cash primarily consists of escrow accounts held by lenders and
resident security deposits, as required by law in certain states. Additionally,
restricted cash as of June 30, 2006 also included $0.3 million of funds held
in
escrow in connection with potential property acquisitions.
As
of
June 30, 2006, our short-term liquidity needs included, but were not limited
to,
the following: (i) anticipated distribution payments to our common and
restricted stockholders totaling approximately $23.4 million based on an
anticipated annual distribution of $1.35 per share based on the number of our
shares currently outstanding, including those distributions required to maintain
our REIT status and satisfy our current distribution policy, (ii) anticipated
distribution payments to our Operating Partnership unitholders totaling
approximately $3.2 million based on an anticipated annual distribution of $1.35
per Common Unit and a cumulative preferential per annum cash distribution rate
of 5.99% on our Series A Preferred Units based on the number of units currently
outstanding, (iii) funds for other potential future development projects,
including remaining pre-development expenditures for the Arizona State
University project which are estimated to range from $7.0 to $8.0 million.
We
expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through net
cash
provided by operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and
a
shelf registration available in which we may offer up to $500 million of debt
securities, preferred stock, common stock and securities warrants.
We
may
seek additional funds to undertake initiatives not contemplated by our business
plan or obtain additional cushion against possible shortfalls. We also may
pursue additional financing as opportunities arise. Future financings may
include a range of different sizes or types of financing, including the sale
of
additional debt or equity securities. While we believe we will be able to obtain
such funds, these funds may not be available on favorable terms or at all.
Our
ability to obtain additional financing depends on several factors, including
future market conditions, our success or lack of success in penetrating our
markets, our future creditworthiness, and restrictions contained in agreements
with our investors or lenders, including the restrictions contained in the
agreements governing our revolving credit facility. These financings could
increase our level of indebtedness or result in dilution to our equity holders.
Revolving
Credit Facility
The
Operating Partnership has a $100 million revolving credit facility, which may
be
expanded by up to an additional $100 million upon the satisfaction of certain
conditions. The maturity date of the facility is August 2007 and we guarantee
the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the facility.
Availability
under the revolving credit facility is limited to an "aggregate borrowing base
amount" equal to the lesser of (i) 65% of the value of certain properties,
calculated as set forth in the credit facility, and (ii) the adjusted net
operating income from these properties divided by a formula amount. The facility
bears interest at a variable rate, at the Company’s option, based upon a base
rate or one-, two-, three-, or six-month LIBOR plus, in each case, a spread
based upon the Company’s total leverage. Additionally, the Company is required
to pay an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.20% per annum, depending
on the aggregate unused balance. As of June 30, 2006, the balance outstanding
on
the revolving credit facility totaled $81.2 million, bearing interest at a
weighted average rate of 6.83%, with remaining availability under the facility
(subject to certain financial covenants) totaling approximately $17.6
million. Assuming that we choose to exercise our option to extend the
capacity of the facility by another $100 million, remaining availability would
be approximately $33.0 million as of June 30, 2006.
The
terms
of the facility include certain restrictions and covenants, which limit, among
other items, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, and the
disposition of assets. The facility contains customary affirmative and negative
covenants and also contains financial covenants that, among other things,
require us to maintain certain minimum ratios of "EBITDA" (earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense and fixed
charges. Before June 30, 2006, we were not permitted to pay distributions
that exceeded 100% of funds from operations for any four consecutive quarters.
After June 30, 2006, we may not pay distributions that exceed 95% of funds
from operations for any four consecutive quarters. The financial covenants
also
include consolidated net worth and leverage ratio tests. As of June 30, 2006,
we
were in compliance with all such covenants.
Distributions
We
are
required to distribute 90% of our REIT taxable income (excluding capital gains)
on an annual basis in order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax
purposes. Accordingly, we intend to make, but are not contractually bound to
make, regular quarterly distributions to common stockholders and Common
Unitholders. All such distributions are at the discretion of the Board of
Directors. We may be required to use borrowings under the credit facility,
if
necessary, to meet REIT distribution requirements and maintain our REIT status.
The Board of Directors considers market factors and our Company’s performance in
addition to REIT requirements in determining distribution levels.
Pre-Development
Expenditures
Our
third
party development activities have historically required us to fund
pre-development expenditures such as architectural fees, permits and deposits.
Because the closing of a development project’s financing is often subject to
third party delay, we cannot always predict accurately the liquidity needs
of
these activities. We frequently incur these pre-development expenditures before
a financing commitment has been obtained and, accordingly, bear the risk of
the
loss of these pre-development expenditures if financing cannot ultimately be
arranged on acceptable terms. Historically, the development projects that we
have been awarded have been successfully structured and financed; however,
these
developments have at times been delayed beyond the period initially scheduled,
causing revenue to be recognized in later periods. As of June 30, 2006, we
have
deferred approximately $3.5 million in pre-development costs related to awarded
projects that have not yet commenced construction.
Indebtedness
As
of
June 30, 2006, we had approximately $504.3 million of outstanding consolidated
indebtedness (excluding unamortized debt premiums, net of discounts, of
approximately $6.7 million), comprised of an $81.2 million balance on our
unsecured revolving credit facility, $331.2 million in mortgage and construction
loans secured by 27 of our owned off-campus properties, $33.7 million in
mortgage and construction loans secured by two phases of an on-campus
participating property, and $58.2 million in bond issuances secured by three
of
our on-campus participating properties. The weighted average interest rate
on
our consolidated indebtedness as of June 30, 2006 was 6.69%. As of June 30,
2006, approximately 21.9% of our total consolidated indebtedness was variable
rate debt, comprised of our revolving credit facility and the Callaway Villas
and Cullen Oaks Phase II construction loans discussed below.
Owned
Off-Campus Properties
The
weighted average interest rate of the $331.2 million of owned off-campus
mortgage and construction debt was 6.55% as of June 30, 2006. Each of the 27
mortgages is a non-recourse obligation subject to customary exceptions. Each
of
these mortgages has a 30 year amortization, and none are cross-defaulted or
cross-collateralized to any other indebtedness. The loans generally may not
be
prepaid prior to maturity; in certain cases prepayment is allowed, subject
to
prepayment penalties.
The
development and construction of Callaway Villas, an owned off-campus property
scheduled to open in August 2006, is partially financed with a construction
loan. The loan amount is $25.0 million, of which $3.2 million is subject to
holdback provisions. We began making draws on this loan in January 2006 and
for
each borrowing we have the option of choosing the Prime rate or one-, two-,
three-, or six-month LIBOR plus 1.35%. The loan requires payments of interest
only during the term of the loan and any accrued interest and outstanding
borrowings become due on the maturity date of July 8, 2008. As of June 30,
2006,
the balance outstanding on the construction loan totaled $13.9 million, bearing
interest at a weighted average rate of 6.88%.
On-Campus
Participating Properties
Three
of
our on-campus participating properties are 100% financed with $58.2 million
of
outstanding project-based taxable bonds. Under the terms of these financings,
one of our special purpose subsidiaries publicly issued three series of taxable
bonds and loaned the proceeds to three special purpose subsidiaries that each
hold a separate leasehold interest. Although a default in payment by these
special purpose subsidiaries could result in a default under one or more series
of bonds, the indebtedness of any of these special purpose subsidiaries is
not
cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized with indebtedness of the Company, the
Operating Partnership or other special purpose subsidiaries. Repayment of
principal and interest on these bonds is insured by MBIA, Inc. The loans
encumbering the leasehold interests are non-recourse, subject to customary
exceptions.
Cullen
Oaks Phase I is currently encumbered by a mortgage loan originated in September
2000 in the original principal amount of approximately $17.7 million. The loan
bears interest at the Prime rate, or LIBOR plus 1.9%, at our election with
principal amortizing on a 30 year schedule. We have in place an interest rate
swap agreement which effectively caps the interest on the outstanding balance
as
of June 30, 2006 of approximately $16.7 million at 5.54%. The loan matures
in
November 2008. Pursuant to the Leases, in the event the leasehold estate does
not achieve Financial Break Even (defined as revenues less operating expenses,
excluding management fees, less debt service), the applicable Lessor would
be
required to make a rental payment, also known as the Contingent Payment,
sufficient to achieve Financial Break Even. The Contingent Payment provision
remains in effect until such time as any financing placed on the facilities
would receive an investment grade rating without the Contingent Payment
provision. In the event that the Lessor is required to make a Contingent
Payment, future net cash flow distributions would be first applied to repay
such
Contingent Payments and then to unpaid management fees prior to normal
distributions Pursuant to the leases, in the event the leasehold estates do
not.
In turn, we have guaranteed payment of this property’s indebtedness.
In
addition, the construction of Cullen Oaks Phase II, which was completed in
August 2005, was financed by a construction loan. The balance on this
construction loan as of June 30, 2006 was approximately $17.0 million, bearing
interest at a weighted average rate of 7.44%. In June 2006 we extended the
maturity date of this construction loan to November 17, 2008. The terms of
the
loan were modified to require monthly payments of principal and interest
beginning in July 2006.
The
weighted average interest rate of the indebtedness encumbering our on-campus
participating properties was 7.09% at June 30, 2006.
Off
Balance Sheet Items
We
do not
have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Funds
From Operations
As
defined by NAREIT, Funds from Operations (“FFO”) represents income (loss) before
allocation to minority interests (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding
gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation
and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs) and after
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We present
FFO
because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operating
performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors
and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present
FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical
cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which
assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time.
Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market
conditions. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real
estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items,
it
provides a performance measure that, when compared year
over
year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental
rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing
perspective not immediately apparent from net income.
We
compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors
of NAREIT in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April
2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by
other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary
use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations
or other commitments and uncertainties. FFO should not be considered as an
alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an
indicator of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities
(computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is
it
indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability
to
pay dividends or make distributions.
The

While
our
on-campus participating properties contributed $3.5 million and $3.1 to our
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and
$9.5 million and $8.6 million to our revenues for the six months ended June
30,
2006 and 2005, respectively, under our participating ground leases, we and
the
participating university systems each receive 50% of the properties’ net cash
available for distribution after payment of operating expenses, debt service
(which includes significant amounts towards repayment of principal) and capital
expenditures. A substantial portion of our revenues attributable to these
properties is reflective of cash that is required to be used for capital
expenditures and for the amortization of applicable property indebtedness.
These
amounts do not increase our economic interest in these properties or otherwise
benefit us since our interest in the properties terminates upon the repayment
of
the applicable property indebtedness.
As
noted
above, FFO excludes GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real
estate and related assets because these GAAP items assume that the value of
real
estate diminishes over time. However, unlike the ownership of our owned
off-campus properties, the unique features of our ownership interest in our
on-campus participating properties cause the value of these properties to
diminish over time. For example, since the ground/facility leases under which
we
operate the participating properties require the reinvestment from operations
of
specified amounts for capital expenditures and for the repayment of debt while
our interest in these properties terminates upon the repayment of the debt,
such
capital expenditures do not increase the value of the property to us and
mortgage debt amortization only increases the equity of the ground lessor.
Accordingly, when considering our FFO, we believe it is also a meaningful
measure of our performance to modify FFO to exclude the operations of our
on-campus participating properties and to consider their impact on performance
by including only that portion of our revenues from those properties that are
reflective of our share of net cash flow and the management fees that we
receive, both of which increase and decrease with the operating measure of
the
properties, a measure referred to herein as FFOM.

This
narrower measure of performance measures our profitability for these properties
in a manner that is similar to the measure of our profitability from our
services business where we similarly incur no initial or ongoing capital
investment in a property and derive only consequential benefits from capital
expenditures and debt amortization. We believe, however, that this narrower
measure of performance is inappropriate in traditional real estate ownership
structures where debt amortization and capital expenditures enhance the property
owner’s long-term profitability from its investment.
Our
FFOM
may have limitations as an analytical tool because it reflects the unique
contractual calculation of net cash flow from our on-campus participating
properties, which is different from that of our owned off-campus properties.
Additionally, FFOM reflects features of our ownership interests in our on-campus
participating properties that are unique to us. Companies that are considered
to
be in our industry may not have similar ownership structures; and therefore
those companies may not calculate a FFOM in the same manner that we do, or
at
all, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. We compensate for these
limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP and FFO results and using our
FFOM
only supplementally.
Inflation
Our
leases do not typically provide for rent escalations. However, they typically
do
not have terms that extend beyond 12 months. Accordingly, although on a short
term basis we would be required to bear the impact of rising costs resulting
from inflation, we have the opportunity to raise rental rates at least annually
to offset such rising costs. However, a weak economic environment or declining
student enrollment at our principal universities may limit our ability to raise
rental rates.
Market
risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest
rates. Our future earnings and cash flows are dependent upon prevailing market
rates. Accordingly, we manage our market risk by matching projected cash inflows
from operating, investing and financing activities with projected cash outflows
for debt service, acquisitions, capital expenditures, distributions to
stockholders and unitholders, and other cash requirements. The majority of
our
outstanding debt has fixed interest rates, which minimizes the risk of
fluctuating interest rates. Our exposure to market risk includes interest rate
fluctuations in connection with our revolving credit facility and variable
rate
construction loans and our ability to incur more debt without stockholder
approval, thereby increasing our debt service obligations, which could adversely
affect our cash flows. No material changes have occurred in relation to
market risk since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31,
2005.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As
required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we have carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
of
the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and
procedures for the quarter covered by this report were effective at the
reasonable assurance level.
There
has
been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our
most
recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
