A. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Moore's Lane Properties, Ltd. ("Registrant"), is a Tennessee limited partnership organized in December 1985, pursuant to the provisions of the Tennessee Uniform Limited Partnership Act, Chapter 2, Title 61, Tennessee Code Annotated, as amended. The General Partner of the Partnership is 222 Partners, Inc. The Partnership is a venturer in Moore's Lane Venture Associates (the "Joint Venture") and has controlling interest in this Joint Venture.

Registrant's primary objective, as a consolidated entity with the Joint Venture, is to sell certain undeveloped real property located in Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee (the "Property") and distribute to the limited partners, a return of capital from the net proceeds of the sales.

B. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the Partnership's financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Nine months Ended September 30, 2003and 2002

(Unaudited)

E. IMPAIRMENT

Effective January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of long-lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Land and improvements held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying value or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell (Fair Value). To determine the Fair Value, management estimates the future discounted net cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with the property. If this land is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated Fair Value. In herent in the calculation of future discounted net cash flows are certain significant management judgments and estimates including, among others, liquidation period, discount rate, selling price, and costs to sell, which significantly impact the estimated Fair Value. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

 

 

 

Item 2: Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003.

On July 8, 2003, the Registrant sold 5 acres of land for gross proceeds of $1.5 million. Of the proceeds, approximately $1.3 million was distributed to the partners of the joint venture. The Registrant has 2 acres left for sale. Expenses of the Registrant are comparable with prior quarters except for the following. Legal and accounting fees are lower due to a change in principal accountants. The increase in state taxes is due to an accrual for state excise tax on the gain on sale.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

As of October 31, 2003 the Registrant had an operating cash balance of $71,582 that the General Partner believes will sufficiently cover operating expenses for the next year.


Critical Accounting Policies

Land and improvements held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying value or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell (Fair Value). To determine the Fair Value, management estimates the future discounted net cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with the property. If this land is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated Fair Value. Inherent in the calculation of future discounted net cash flows are certain significant management judgments and estimates including, among others, liquidation period, discount rate, selling price, and costs to sell, which significantly impact the estimated Fair Value.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

At September 30, 2003, the Partnership has no capital lease obligations, operating leases, unconditional purchase obligations or other long term obligations. The Partnership does not enter into derivative transactions. Further, the Partnership does not have lines of credit, guarantees, or other commercial commitments. At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Partnership has restricted cash balances of $96,502 and $32,252, respectively, to be used to fund property improvements, consisting of road and utility work, and property taxes. The restricted cash secures a letter of credit in the same amount to ensure that the required developments were made. The Partnership may borrow from the General Partner in order to meet cash flow needs and may have amounts payable to the General Partner for management fees or other services. At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Partnership had no borrowings from the General Partner. Transactions with the General Partner and affiliates are discussed in footnote C to the financial statements.

 

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
