NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2005
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - MANAGEMENT'S OPINION REGARDING INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries, including certain variable interest entities
("VIEs") in which the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary
(see Note 5).
The consolidated financial statements and the information and tables
contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements as of March 31,
2005 and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are
unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in this
Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. However, in the opinion of management, these interim financial
statements include all the necessary adjustments to fairly present the results
of the interim periods presented. The unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2004 ("fiscal 2004"). The results of operations for the three
months and six months ended March 31, 2005 may not necessarily be indicative of
the results of operations for the full fiscal year ending September 30, 2005
("fiscal 2005").
Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2004
consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2005 presentation.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In April 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Staff Position No. FAS 19-1 ("FSP FAS 19-1"), which addressed a discussion that
was ongoing within the oil and gas industry regarding capitalization of costs of
drilling exploratory wells. Paragraph 19 of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") 19, "Financial Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas
Producing Companies" ("SFAS 19"), requires costs of drilling exploratory wells
to be capitalized pending determination of whether the well has found proved
reserves. If the well has found proved reserves, the capitalized costs become
part of the entity's wells, equipment, and facilities; if, however, the well has
not found proved reserves, the capitalized costs of drilling the well are
expensed.
Questions arose in practice about the application of this guidance due
to changes in oil and gas exploration processes and lifecycles. The issue was
whether there are circumstances that would permit the continued capitalization
of exploratory well costs if reserves cannot be classified as proved within one
year following the completion of drilling other than when additional exploration
wells are necessary to justify major capital expenditures and those wells are
underway or firmly planned for the near future. FSP FAS 19-1 amends SFAS 19 to
allow for the continued capitalization of suspended well costs when the well has
found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing
well and the enterprise is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and
the economic and operating viability of the plan. This guidance requires
management to exercise more judgment than was previously required and also
requires additional disclosure. This new guidance is effective for the first
reporting period beginning after April 4, 2005 and is to be applied
prospectively to existing and newly capitalized exploratory well costs. The
Company does not believe this statement of position will have a significant
effect on our financial statements.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for
Conditional Assets Retirement Obligations" ("FIN 47"), which will result in (a)
more consistent recognition of liabilities relating to asset retirement
obligations, (b) more information about expected future cash outflows associated
with those obligations, and (c) more information about investments in long-lived
assets because additional asset retirement costs will be recognized as part of
the carrying amounts of the assets. FIN 47 clarifies that the term "conditional
asset retirement obligation" as used in SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations," refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset
retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are
conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the
entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional
even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement.
Uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of a conditional asset
retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability
when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would
have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset
retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years
ending after December 15, 2005. Retrospective application of interim financial
information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of this
interpretation is encouraged. As FIN 47 was recently issued, the Company has not
determined whether the interpretation will have a significant effect on its
financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - (CONTINUED)
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123-R, "Share-Based Payment"
("SFAS 123-R"), which is a revision of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." SFAS 123-R supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and amends SFAS 95, "Statement
of Cash Flows." Generally, the approach to accounting in SFAS 123-R requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options,
to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.
Currently, the Company accounts for these payments under the intrinsic value
provisions of APB 25 with no expense recognition in the financial statements.
SFAS 123-R is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2005. The statement
offers several alternatives for implementation. At this time, the Company has
not made a decision as to which alternative it may select.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation plans under
the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25 and related
interpretations. For substantially all grants of stock options, no stock-based
employee compensation expense is reflected in net income since each option
granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common
stock on the date of grant.
SFAS 123 requires the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings
per share as if the Company had adopted the fair value method for stock options
granted after June 30, 1996. Under SFAS 123, the fair value of stock-based
awards to employees is calculated through the use of option pricing models, even
though such models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable,
fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly
differ from the Company's stock option awards. These models also required
subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected
time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values.
The following table provides the pro forma effects of recognizing
compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123 (in thousands, except per
share data):

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of periodic temporary
investments of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its temporary cash
investments in high-quality, short-term money market instruments and deposits
with high-quality financial institutions and brokerage firms. At March 31, 2005,
the Company had $65.0 million in deposits at various banks, of which $61.9
million was over the insurance limit of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. No losses have been experienced on such investments.
RECEIVABLES - ENERGY
In evaluating its allowance for possible losses, the Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon
payment history and the customer's current creditworthiness, as determined by
the Company's review of its customers' credit information. The Company extends
credit on an unsecured basis to many of its energy customers. At March 31, 2005
and September 30, 2004, the Company's credit evaluation indicated that it had no
need for an allowance for possible losses.
REVENUE RECOGNITION - ENERGY
Because there are timing differences between the delivery of natural
gas, natural gas liquids ("NGLS") and oil and the Company's receipt of a
delivery statement, the Company has unbilled revenues. These revenues are
accrued based upon volumetric data from the Company's records and the Company's
estimates of the related transportation and compression fees which are, in turn,
based upon applicable product prices. The Company had unbilled trade receivables
at March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004 of $26.7 million and $22.1 million,
respectively, which are included in accounts receivable on its consolidated
balance sheets.
INTEREST INCOME RECOGNITION - SECURITIES
The Company accounts for its interests in unconsolidated collateralized
debt obligations in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 99-20,
"Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained
Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets" ("EITF 99-20"), using the
effective yield method.
NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and all other
changes in the equity of a business during a period from transactions and other
events and circumstances from non-owner sources. These changes, other than net
income (loss), are referred to as "other comprehensive income (loss)" and for
the Company include changes in the fair value, net of taxes, of marketable
securities and unrealized hedging gains and losses.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share ("Basic EPS") is determined by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by
dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding after giving effect to the potential dilution from the
exercise of securities, such as stock options, into shares of common stock as if
those securities were exercised.

NOTE 5 - CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Financial Interpretation 46-R ("FIN 46-R") issued by the FASB in
December 2003 provides guidance as to the definition of a VIE and requires it to
be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, generally the party having an
ownership or other contractual financial interest that is expected to absorb the
majority of the VIE's expected losses. If no party has exposure to the majority
of the VIE's expected losses, the primary beneficiary will be the party, if any,
entitled to receive the majority of the VIE's residual returns. The primary
beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE's assets, liabilities and
non-controlling interest at fair value.
Certain entities relating to the Company's real estate business have
been consolidated in accordance with FIN 46-R. Because of the timing of the
receipt of financial information, the Company accounts for these entities'
activities on a one quarter lag, except when adjusting for the impact of events
such as a refinance or sale. The assets, liabilities, revenues and costs and
expenses of the consolidated VIEs are included in the Company's financial
statements where previously the Company's interests had been recorded as
investments in real estate loans.

=========== ============ =========== ===========
At March 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company held, for its own account, real
estate loans with aggregate face values of $58.1 million and $184.6 million,
respectively. Amounts receivable, net of senior lien interests, were $42.5
million and $100.6 million at March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
In determining the Company's allowance for possible losses related to
its investments in real estate loans and real estate, the Company considers
general and local economic conditions, neighborhood values, competitive
overbuilding, casualty losses and other factors which may affect the value of
loans and real estate. The value of loans and real estate may also be affected
by factors such as the cost of compliance with regulations and liability under
applicable environmental laws, changes in interest rates and the availability of
financing. Income from a property will be reduced if a significant number of
tenants are unable to pay rent or if available space cannot be rented on
favorable terms. In addition, the Company continuously monitors collections and
payments from its borrowers and maintains an allowance for estimated losses
based upon its historical experience and its knowledge of specific borrower
collection issues. The Company reduces its investments in real estate loans and
real estate by an allowance for amounts that may become unrealizable in the
future. Such allowance can be either specific to a particular loan or property
or general to all loans and real estate.

NOTE 8 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation, depletion and
amortization is based on cost, less estimated salvage value, primarily using the
unit-of-production or straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful
lives. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and
improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are
capitalized.
The Company uses the "successful efforts" method to account for its
exploration and production activities. Under this method, costs are accumulated
on a pool-by-pool basis with certain exploratory expenditures and exploratory
dry holes expensed as incurred. Costs of productive wells and development dry
holes are capitalized and amortized on the unit-of-production method for each
pool based on estimated proved oil and gas reserves.
The estimated service lives of other property and equipment are as
follows:
Pipelines, processing and compression facilities......... 15-20 years
Rights-of-way - Appalachia .............................. 20 years

NOTE 13 - CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In the ordinary course of its business operations, the Company has
ongoing relationships with several related parties. For a more detailed
description of these transactions, see the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, at Note 5 of the "Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements."

revenue of $208,000 and $149,000, respectively, from RCC formed in March 2005.
The Company is the external manager of this newly-formed real estate investment
trust (see Note 9).
Other Relationships. In October 2003, the Company paid $200,000 to
Messrs. S. Schaeffer, D. Cohen and E. Cohen to reimburse them (without interest)
for costs that they had incurred in assuming title to a property in 1998,
facilitating the Company's maintenance of control of the property at that time.
In October 2003, the asset of an entity that is consolidated on the
Company's financial statements (as a result of the application of FIN 46-R) and
that underlies one of the Company's loans was sold to an entity of which D.
Cohen is a shareholder. The buyer was the highest bidder for the property. The
Company received $6.6 million in cash and recognized a gain of $78,000. Prior to
such sale, the FIN 46 entity's asset had been owned by a partnership in which
Messrs. E. Cohen, D. Cohen and Mrs. B. Cohen were limited partners.
In December 2003, RAIT provided the Company a standby commitment to
provide $10.0 million in bridge financing in connection with the retirement of
the Company's senior debt. RAIT received a $100,000 facilitation fee from the
Company in connection with providing this standby commitment. During January

NOTE 14 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Atlas Pipeline enters into certain financial swap and option
instruments that are classified as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity." Atlas Pipeline
entered into these instruments to hedge the forecasted natural gas, NGLs and
condensate sales against the variability in expected future cash flows
attributable to changes in market prices. The swap instruments are contractual
agreements between counterparties to exchange obligations of money as the
underlying natural gas, natural gas liquids and condensate is sold. Under these
swap agreements, Atlas Pipeline receives a fixed price and pays a floating price
based on certain indices for the relevant contract period. The options fix the
price for Atlas Pipeline within the puts purchased and calls sold.
Atlas Pipeline formally documents all relationships between hedging
instruments and the items being hedged, including its risk management objective
and strategy for undertaking the hedging transactions. This includes matching
the natural gas futures and options contracts to the forecasted transactions.
Atlas Pipeline assesses, both at the inception of the hedges and on an ongoing
basis, whether the derivatives are effective in offsetting changes in the
forecasted cash flow of hedged items. If it is determined that a derivative is
not effective as a hedge or it has ceased to be an effective hedge due to the
loss of correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying commodity,
Atlas Pipeline will discontinue hedge accounting for the derivative and
subsequent changes in fair value for the derivative will be recognized
immediately into earnings.
Derivatives are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as assets
or liabilities at fair value. For derivatives qualifying as hedges, the
effective portion of changes in fair value are recognized in stockholders'
equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to
earnings as such transactions are settled. For non-qualifying derivatives and
for the ineffective portion of qualifying derivatives, changes in fair value are
recognized in earnings as they occur. At March 31, 2005, Atlas Pipeline
reflected a net hedging liability on its balance sheet of $10.8 million. Of the
Company's $1.7 million accumulated other comprehensive loss related to
unrealized hedging losses at March 31, 2005, $1.1 million of losses will be
reclassified to earnings over the next twelve month period as these contracts
expire, and $600,000 will be classified in later periods if the fair values of
the instruments remain constant. Actual amounts that will be reclassified will
vary as a result of future changes in prices. Ineffective gains and losses are
recorded in income while the hedge contract is open and may increase or decrease
until settlement of the contract. Atlas Pipeline recognized a loss of $669,000
and $645,000 related to these hedging instruments for the three and six months
ended March 31, 2005, respectively. A loss of $224,000 and a hedging gain of
$216,000 resulting from ineffective hedges are included in energy revenues for
the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.
A portion of Atlas Pipeline's future natural gas sales is periodically
hedged through the use of swap and collar contracts. Realized gains and losses
on these instruments are reflected in the contract month being hedged as an
adjustment to energy revenues.

The Company's natural gas and NGLs are sold under contract to various
purchasers. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, sales to one of Atlas

NOTE 19 - SETTLEMENT OF ALASKA PIPELINE COMPANY ARBITRATION
In September 2003, Atlas Pipeline entered into an agreement with SEMCO
Energy, Inc. to purchase all of the stock of Alaska Pipeline Company ("APC"). In
order to complete the acquisition, Atlas Pipeline needed the approval of the
Regulatory Commission of Alaska. The Regulatory Commission initially approved
the transaction, but on June 4, 2004, it vacated its order of approval based
upon a motion for clarification or reconsideration filed by SEMCO. On July 1,
2004, SEMCO sent Atlas Pipeline a notice purporting to terminate the
transaction. Atlas Pipeline pursued its remedies under the acquisition
agreement. In connection with the acquisition, subsequent termination, and
settlement of the legal action, Atlas Pipeline incurred costs of approximately
$1.2 million in the six months ended March 31, 2005 which were included in other
income on the Company's consolidated statements of income. Atlas Pipeline also
incurred $3.0 million of costs in the year ended September 30, 2004. On December
30, 2004, Atlas Pipeline entered into an agreement with SEMCO settling all
issues and matters related to SEMCO's termination of the sale of APC to Atlas
Pipeline and SEMCO paid Atlas Pipeline $5.5 million which was also included in
other income.
NOTE 20 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In connection with the Company's sale on August 1, 2000 of its former
leasing subsidiary, Fidelity Leasing, Inc. and its subsidiary, JLA Credit
Corporation, the Company has been advised in April 2005 by the successor in
interest to the purchaser that the State of California has asserted a claim for
sales taxes, plus interest, of $4.0 million relating to JLA's operations for the
period from October 1996 through July 2000. Fidelity Leasing acquired JLA in
February 1999. The successor has asserted that payments, if any, with respect to
such claim are covered under indemnification provisions of the agreement of
sale. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to any such
indemnification claim, as well as cross claims against the entities and persons
from whom it acquired JLA for that portion of any sales tax claim made by the
State of California relating to periods before the Company acquired JLA. The
Company also believes that JLA likely has meritorious defenses to the sales tax
claim purportedly being made by the State of California.
From time to time, the Company is named as a defendant in legal actions
arising from its normal business activities. Although the amount of any
liability that could arise with respect to currently pending actions cannot be
accurately predicted, the Company does not believe that the resolution of any
pending action will have a material adverse effect on its financial position,
results of operations or liquidity.

other things, on gas imbalances, certain prepaid expenses, capital expenditures,
and title defects, if any. In addition, Atlas Pipeline is in the process of
evaluating certain estimates made in the purchase price and related allocations;
accordingly, the purchase price and allocation are both subject to adjustment.

On April 14, 2005, Atlas Pipeline entered into a new $270.0 million
credit facility which replaced its existing $135.0 million facility. Wachovia
Capital Markets, LLC and Bank of America Securities LLC are co-lead arrangers
for this facility. The bank group consists of the twelve banks that participated
in the prior credit facility plus five new participants. The five year facility
is comprised of a $225.0 million revolving line of credit and a $45.0 million
five year term loan. Atlas Pipeline immediately drew down $249.5 million to
refinance the existing $53.8 million outstanding on the prior $135.0 million
facility and to finance the acquisition of Elk City. The credit facility
requires Atlas Pipeline to maintain a specified interest coverage ratio, a
specified ratio of funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
depletion and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted as provided in the credit
facility and a specified ratio of senior secured debt to such adjusted EBITDA.
SPIN-OFF OF ATLAS AMERICA, INC.
In May 2005, the Company received the rulings it requested from the
Internal Revenue Service in connection with the distribution of its remaining
10.7 million shares of Atlas America to the Company's stockholders. The effect
of the rulings is that, among other things, the distribution will be tax-free
for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the Company and its stockholders.
According to the terms of the spin-off, each stockholder of the Company will
receive a tax-free dividend of approximately 0.6 shares of Atlas America for
each share of Company common stock owned. The Company intends to complete the
distribution by the close of its June 30, 2005 fiscal quarter. Although the
distribution itself will be entirely tax-free to recipients, the consequent
deconsolidation of the Company and Atlas America may result in some tax
liability to Atlas America arising from prior unrelated corporate transactions
among Atlas America and some of its subsidiaries.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)
WHEN USED IN THIS FORM 10-Q, THE WORDS "BELIEVES" "ANTICIPATES,"
"EXPECTS" AND SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS. SUCH STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES MORE
PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED IN ITEM 1, UNDER THE CAPTION "RISK FACTORS", IN OUR
ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR FISCAL 2004. THESE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES COULD
CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY. READERS ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE
UNDUE RELIANCE ON THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, WHICH SPEAK ONLY AS OF THE
DATE HEREOF. WE UNDERTAKE NO OBLIGATION TO PUBLICLY RELEASE THE RESULTS OF ANY
REVISIONS TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHICH WE MAY MAKE TO REFLECT EVENTS OR
CIRCUMSTANCES AFTER THE DATE OF THIS FORM 10-Q OR TO REFLECT THE OCCURRENCE OF
UNANTICIPATED EVENTS.
OVERVIEW OF THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, our results reflect
the continued dominant position of our energy operations. However, the
initiatives we began in fiscal 2003 and continue in fiscal 2004 and 2005 to
expand our specialized asset management business in preparation for the spin-off
of Atlas America, Inc., our energy business, resulted in material revenue growth
for certain of those operations. We intend to spin-off Atlas America in our
third fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2005. After the spin-off, we will no longer
consolidate Atlas America's financial statements with ours and, as a result, our
assets, revenues and stockholders' equity will be substantially reduced.
Although the distribution itself will be entirely tax-free to recipients, as a
result of the deconsolidation there may be some tax liability arising from prior
unrelated corporate transactions among Atlas America and some of its
subsidiaries.
During the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, we continued to
build our specialized asset management business focusing on the structured
finance, equipment leasing and real estate businesses that we will retain
following the planned spin-off of Atlas America. In structured finance, we
increased the amount of assets we managed for issuers of collateralized debt
obligations, or CDOs, by $335.0 million through our sponsorship of Trapeza CDO
VII. In addition, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Ischus Capital Management
LLC ("Ischus"), focusing on selecting, investing in and managing primarily real
estate-related asset-backed securities ("ABS"). In December 2004, we closed our
first Ischus CDO which, as of March 31, 2005, had approximately $400.0 million
in ABS collateral. We also formed Apidos Capital Management, LLC ("Apidos") to
focus on selecting, investing in and managing syndicated loans. In addition, we
formed Resource Capital Corp. ("RCC"), a real estate investment trust, that is
externally managed by Resource Capital Manager, Inc. ("RCM"), an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary. RCC's principal business activity is to purchase and
manage a diversified portfolio of real estate-related securities and commercial
finance assets. As a result of these initiatives, our structured finance
revenues increased by $2.8 million (146%) to $4.7 million and by $3.1 million
(109%) to $6.0 million in the three months and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, from $1.9 million and $2.9 million in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2004, respectively.
In equipment leasing, the amount of assets we managed for investors in
the investment partnerships we sponsored and on behalf of Merrill Lynch through
a multi-year alliance, increased $88.5 million (54%) to an aggregate of $253.3
million at March 31, 2005 from $164.8 million at September 30, 2004. The growth
was principally due to portfolio acquisitions, new vendor programs and expansion
of our sales staff.
32
In real estate, we increased the amount of assets we managed on behalf
of the investment limited partnerships we sponsored to $143.2 million at March
31, 2005 from $86.5 million at March 31, 2004. As part of our strategic plan, we
are continuing to resolve our real estate loan portfolio through sales and loan
resolutions. In the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, we resolved loans with a
book value of $25.2 million, realizing $25.6 million in net proceeds. In
addition, we refinanced the first mortgage on a property accounted for by us as
a FIN 46 asset and received net proceeds of $8.6 million. As a result, the loans
and real estate assets in our loan portfolios, principally outstanding loan
receivables, decreased from $454.4 million at March 31, 2004 to $330.7 million
at March 31, 2005.
The following is an analysis and discussion of the results of our
energy, real estate, equipment leasing and structured finance operations and our
costs and expenses and other income (expense).

WELL DRILLING
Our well drilling revenues and costs and expenses incurred represent
the billings and costs associated with the completion of wells for drilling
investment partnerships we sponsor. The following table sets forth information
relating to these revenues and the related costs, gross profit margins and
number of net wells drilled during the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):
THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED

========== ========= ========= =========
Net wells drilled....................................... 207 157 343 268
========== ========= ========= =========
33
Our well drilling gross margin was $5.4 million and $9.4 million in the
three months and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of
$2.0 million (58%) and $3.1 million (49%) from $3.4 million and $6.3 million in
the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. In the three months
ended March 31, 2005, the increase of $2.0 million in gross margin was
attributable to an increase in the number of wells drilled ($1.3 million) and an
increase in the gross profit per well ($677,000). In the six months ended March
31, 2005, the increase of $3.1 million was attributable to an increase in the
number of wells drilled ($1.0 million) and an increase in the gross profit per
well ($2.1 million). Since our drilling contracts are on a "cost plus" basis
(typically cost plus 15%), an increase in our average cost per well also results
in an increase in our average revenue per well. The increase in our average cost
per well in the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 resulted from an
increase in the cost of tangible equipment used in the wells. In addition, it
should be noted that "Liabilities associated with drilling contracts" on our
consolidated balance sheets includes $17.1 million of funds raised in our
drilling investment programs in late fiscal 2004 and in the three months ended
December 31, 2004 that had not been applied to drill wells as of March 31, 2005
due to the timing of drilling operations, and thus had not been recognized as
well drilling revenue. We expect to recognize this amount as revenue in the
remainder of fiscal 2005. Because we raised $62.3 million in the first six
months of fiscal 2005 as compared to $40.2 million in the six months of fiscal
2004, we anticipate drilling revenues and related costs to be substantially
higher in fiscal 2005 than in fiscal 2004.
GAS AND OIL PRODUCTION

Our natural gas revenues were $12.3 million and $25.0 million in the
three months and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of
$2.2 million (21%) and $5.8 million (30%) from $10.1 million and $19.2 million
in the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increases
were due to an increase in the average sales price of natural gas of 16% and 25%
for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, and an increase
of 6% and 5% in the volume of natural gas produced in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2005, respectively. The $2.2 million increase in gas revenues in
the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the prior period consisted
of $1.6 million attributable to increases in natural gas sales prices, and
$582,000 attributable to increased production volumes. The $5.8 million increase
in natural gas revenue in the six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the
prior year period consisted of $4.7 million attributable to increases in natural
gas sales prices, and $1.1 million attributable to increased production volumes.
Our oil revenues were $1.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for
the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, a decrease of $19,000 (1%) and an
increase of $800,000 (29%), respectively, from $1.7 million and $2.8 million in
the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The average sales
price of oil increased 42% and 56% for the three and six months ended March 31,
2005 as compared to the prior periods. The $19,000 decrease in oil revenues in
three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the prior year period consisted
of $694,000 attributable to increases in sales prices, offset by a $713,000
decrease in production volumes. The $800,000 increase in oil revenues for the
six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the prior year period consisted
of $1.6 million attributable to increases in sales prices offset by $755,000
attributable to decreased production volumes.
Our production costs were $2.2 million and $3.9 million in the three
and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $382,000 (21%)
and $495,000 (14%) from $1.8 million and $3.4 million in the three and six
months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. These increases include an increase
in insurance expense, material costs related to well workovers and an increase
in transportation expenses associated with increased production volumes and
natural gas sales prices, as a portion of our wells are charged transportation
based on the sales price of the gas transported.
Our exploration costs were $236,000 and $288,000 in the three and six
months ended March 31, 2005, a decrease of $1.3 million (82%), from $1.5 million
and $1.6 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2004. We attribute
these decreases to the following: a $907,000 increase in the benefit we receive
for our contribution of well sites to our drilling investment partnerships as a
result of more wells drilled; dry hole costs decreased $587,000 which were
expensed in the prior period, no such costs were incurred in the six months
ended March 31, 2005 and partially offset by an increase of $206,000 in the cost
of running our land department due to the increase in our drilling activities.
Our depletion of oil and gas properties as a percentage of oil and gas
revenues was 20 % and 19% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, compared to 21% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2004,
respectively. Depletion expense per mcfe was $1.36 and $1.29 in the three and
six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $.12 (10%) per
mcfe and $.14 (12%) per mcfe from $1.24 and $1.15 in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2004, respectively. Increases in our depletable basis and
production volumes caused depletion expense to increase $240,000 (10%) and
$730,000 (15%) to $2.8 million and $5.5 million in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2005 compared to $2.5 million and $4.7 million in the three and
six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The variances from period to
period are directly attributable to changes in our oil and gas reserve
quantities, product prices and changes in the depletable cost basis of our oil
and gas properties.
GATHERING, TRANSMISSION AND PROCESSING
Our gathering, transmission and processing revenues and related
expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 increased
significantly from the prior year periods due to the acquisition of Spectrum on
July 16, 2004.
Revenues increased $42.2 million and $84.3 million to $43.7 million and
$87.5 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 from $1.6
million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004.
Expenses increased $36.8 million and $71.9 million to $37.5 million and
$73.1 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 from $620,000
and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004.
35
WELL SERVICES
Our well services revenues were $2.3 million and $4.6 million in the
three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $227,000
(11%) and $538,000 (13%) from $2.1 million and $4.1 million in the three and six
months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increase resulted from an
increase in the number of wells operated for our investment partnerships due to
additional wells drilled in the twelve months ended March 31, 2005.
Our well services expenses were $1.3 million and $2.5 million in the
three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $295,000
(29%) and $445,000 (22%) from $1.0 million and $2.1 million in the three and six
months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increases were attributable to an
increase in wages, benefits, and field office expenses associated with an
increase in employees due to the increase in the number of wells we operate for
our investment partnerships.
NON-DIRECT COSTS AND EXPENSES
Our non-direct expenses were $1.7 million and $3.6 million in the three
and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $492,000 and
$1.5 million from $1.2 million and $2.2 million in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2004, respectively. These expenses include, among other things,
salaries and benefits not allocated to a specific energy activity, costs of
running our energy corporate office, partnership syndication activities and
outside services. These expenses are partially offset by reimbursements we
receive from our drilling investment partnerships. The increase of $1.5 million
in the six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March
31, 2004 is attributable principally to the following:
o non-direct expenses related to our Atlas Pipeline operations
were $1.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2005;
we acquired Spectrum on July 16, 2004;
o costs associated with Atlas Pipeline's long-term stock incentive
plan were $1.1 million in the six months ended March 31, 2005;
there were no such expenses in the prior year similar period;
These increases in expenses were partially offset by the following:
o non-direct expense reimbursements from our investment partnerships
increased by $209,000 as we continue to increase the number of
wells we drill and manage; and
o net syndication revenues increased $547,000 due to increased
credits we received for costs incurred in organizing and offering
our partnership investments.
36
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On April 14, 2005, Atlas Pipeline acquired all of the outstanding
equity interests in ETC Oklahoma Pipeline, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership,
for $194.4 million including related transaction costs. ETC Oklahoma Pipeline's
principal assets include approximately 318 miles of natural gas pipelines
located in the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma, a natural gas processing
facility in Elk City, Oklahoma with total capacity of 130 million cubic feet of
gas per day or mmcf/d and a gas treatment facility in Prentiss, Oklahoma, with a
total capacity of 100 mmcf/d. Total gas throughput is currently approximately
262 mmcf/d. Total compression horsepower consists of 21,000 hp at six field
stations and 12,000 horsepower within the Elk City and Prentiss facilities. The
system gathers and processes gas from more than 300 receipt points representing
more than fifty producers and delivers that gas into multiple interstate
pipeline systems. The acquisition expands Atlas Pipeline's activities in the
mid-continent area and provides the potential for further growth in Atlas
Pipeline's operations based in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
37
To finance the acquisition, Atlas Pipeline entered into a new $270.0
million credit facility which replaces its existing $135.0 million facility.
Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and Bank of America Securities LLC were co-lead
arrangers. The bank group consisted of the twelve banks that participated in the
prior credit facility, plus five new participants.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: REAL ESTATE
During the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, our real estate
operations continued to be affected by three principal trends or events:
o we continued to selectively resolve the loans in our existing
portfolio through repayments, sales, refinancings and
restructurings;
o we sought growth in our real estate business through the
sponsorship of real estate investment partnerships in which we are
also an investor; and
o the adoption of FIN 46-R.
The principal effects of the first two factors has been to reduce the
number of our real estate loans while increasing our interests in real property
and, as a result of repayments, sales, refinancings and restructurings, also
increasing our cash flow from loan resolutions. The principal effect of the
adoption of FIN 46-R has been to consolidate in our financial statements the
assets, liabilities, revenues and costs and expenses of a number of borrowers,
although not affecting our creditor-debtor legal relationship with these
borrowers and not causing these assets and obligations to become our legal
assets or obligations.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
revenues recognized and costs and expenses incurred in our real estate
operations (in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 as Compared to the Three Months Ended March
31, 2004
Revenues decreased $11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as
compared to the prior year period. We attribute the decrease to the following:
o a $376,000 decrease in interest and accreted discount income (46%)
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2004 resulting from the resolution of six
loans which decreased interest income by $369,000;
o a $71,000 decrease in rental income reflecting the sale of a real
estate investment during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004; and
38
o a $626,000 decrease in gains on resolution of loans, FIN 46 assets
and ventures. In the three months ended December 31, 2004, we sold
an investment and recorded an estimated gain of $50,000. In the
three months ended March 31, 2005, an additional gain of $33,000
was recognized. In the three months ended March 31, 2004, we
resolved one loan with a book value of $2.3 million for $2.1
million recognizing a loss of $182,000. We also received $3.4
million for the sale of our investment in one venture resulting in
a gain of $841,000.
The decrease was partially offset by the following:
o a $676,000 increase (343%) in fee income. We earned fees for
services provided to the real estate investment partnerships which
we sponsored relating to the purchase and third party financing of
three properties during the three months ended March 31, 2005.
These transaction fees totaled $478,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2005. No such fees were earned in the three months ended
March 31, 2004. Additionally, we earned management fees for the
properties owned by real estate investment partnerships which we
sponsored totaling $395,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2005 as compared to $197,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2004. We anticipate earning additional fees from our existing
partnerships and any future real estate investment partnerships
which we may sponsor; and
o a $318,000 increase (133%) in our share of the operating results
of our unconsolidated real estate investments accounted for on the
equity method. The increase was primarily due to the results from
one investment which provided $700,000 of the income in the three
months ended March 31, 2005; this income was offset by the loss
from an equity investment which was converted from a loan during
fiscal 2004 and the losses from other equity investments in our
real estate investment partnerships made subsequent to March 31,
2004.
Gain on resolution of loans, FIN 46 assets and other real estate assets
(if any) and the amount of fees received (if any) vary by each transaction and,
accordingly, there may be significant variations in our gains on resolutions and
fee income from period to period.
Costs and expenses of our real estate operations increased $665,000
(23%) for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to for the three
months ended March 31, 2004. We attribute the increase to the following:
o a $274,000 increase in real estate general and administrative
expenses. The increase resulted primarily from the following:
- a $392,000 increase in wages and benefits as a result of the
addition of personnel in our real estate subsidiary to manage
our existing portfolio of commercial loans and real estate and
to expand our real estate operations through the sponsorship
of real estate investment partnerships;
- a $73,000 increase in sales and marketing expenses (none for
the three months ended March 31, 2004) reflecting the efforts
of in-house marketing personnel and external wholesale
representatives to sell interests in our real estate
investment partnerships and an increase in travel costs of
$31,000 due to the increased acquisition activity associated
with our management of our real estate investment programs;
- a $13,000 decrease in property management expenses related to
real estate investment partnerships; and
- a $207,000 net decrease in outside services and office
expenses.
39
o an increase of $399,000 (26%) in FIN 46 operating expenses. We
early adopted FIN 46-R on July 1, 2003, which resulted in our
consolidating six and seven entities for the three months ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The decrease resulted from
two of the six entities having lower operating expenses offsetting
higher operating expenses for the other four entities for the
three months ended March 31, 2005.
Six Months Ended March 31, 2005 as Compared to the Six Months Ended March 31,
2004
Revenues increased $243,000 (3%) to $9.2 million in the six months
ended March 31, 2005 from $8.9 million in the six months ended March 31, 2004.
We attribute the increase to the following:
o an $802,000 increase in FIN 46 revenues for the six months ended
March 31, 2005, as compared to the six months ended March 31,
2004. We adopted FIN 46 which resulted in our consolidating six
entities as of March 31, 2005 and recording their operations as
FIN 46 revenue and expenses. The increase is primarily related to
a hotel property in Savannah, Georgia;
o an $87,000 increase in our share of the operating results of our
unconsolidated real estate investments accounted for on the equity
method for the six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the
six months ended March 31, 2004. The increase was the result of
higher earnings from one of our investments offset by the loss of
income from five other investments, including an asset sold during
the second quarter of fiscal 2004;
o a $784,000 increase in fee income for the six months ended March
31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004. We
earned fees for services provided to the real estate investment
partnerships which we sponsored relating to the purchase and third
party financing of four properties in the six months ended March
31, 2005 and one property in the six months ended March 31, 2004.
The transaction fees totaled $968,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 2005 and $397,000 for the six months ended March 31,
2004. Additionally, we earned management fees for the properties
owned by real estate investment partnerships which we sponsored
totaling $547,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2005 and
$334,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2004.
The increases were partially offset by the following:
o a $114,000 decrease in rental income for the six months ended
March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004
because of the sale of a real estate investment during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2004;
o a $667,000 decrease in interest and accreted discount income
(43%) resulting from the resolution of five loans since March
31, 2004. The decrease relates principally to one loan
resolved during fiscal 2004;
o a $649,000 decrease in gains on resolutions of loans, FIN 46
assets and real estate assets. In the six months ended March
31, 2004, we resolved three loans having an aggregate book
value of $3.7 million for $3.5 million, recognizing losses of
$109,000. We also received $3.4 million for the sale of our
investment in one venture resulting in a gain of $841,000. In
the six months ended March 31, 2005, we resolved one
investment having a book value of $917,000 for $1.0 million,
recognizing a gain of $83,000.
Gains on resolutions of loans, FIN 46 assets and other real estate
assets (if any) and the amount of fees received (if any) vary from transaction
to transaction and there may be significant variations in our gains on
resolutions and fee income from period to period.
40
Costs and expenses of our real estate operations were $6.9 million for
the six months ended March 31, 2005, an increase of $1.4 million (24%) as
compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004.
We attribute the increase to the following:
o an increase of $700,000 in real estate general and administrative
expenses in the six months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to
the six months ended March 31, 2004. The increase resulted
primarily from the following:
- a $620,000 increase in wages and benefits and $127,000 in
office expenses as a result of the addition of personnel in
our real estate subsidiary to manage our existing portfolio of
commercial loans and real estate and to expand our real estate
operations through the sponsorship of real estate investment
partnerships;
- a $72,000 increase in both property management expenses
related to real estate investment partnerships and $78,000 of
travel costs due to the increased acquisition activity
associated with managing our real estate investment programs;
- a $181,000 increase in sales and marketing expenses reflecting
the efforts of in-house marketing personnel and external
wholesale representatives to sell interests in our real estate
investment partnerships;
- a $377,000 decrease in outside services, primarily legal and
consulting.
o a $52,000 decrease in rental properties expenses for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2004. These expenses are primarily related to one
property upon which we foreclosed during fiscal 2004 and sold at
the end of fiscal 2004; and
o a $711,000 increase in FIN 46 operating expenses for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2004. We early adopted FIN 46 on July 1, 2003, which
resulted in our consolidating six and seven entities for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, recording their operations
as FIN 46 revenues and operating expenses.

The growth in originations and assets under management resulted in
total revenues from leasing operations increasing to $3.4 million and $6.0
million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, an increase of $1.3
million (62%) and $2.3 million (61%) from $2.1 million and $3.7 million in the
three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. Our lease originations
for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 were $79.9 million and $121.7
million, respectively, an increase of $59.9 million (299%) and $74.7 million
(159%) from the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. Our
total lease assets under management at March 31, 2005 were $253.3 million, an
increase of $164.0 million (184%) from $89.3 million at March 31, 2004. Our
leasing origination growth was driven by our March 21, 2005 acquisition of the
business and lease portfolio of Allco Enterprises of Lake Oswego, Oregon, new
vendor programs and expansion of our sales staff. This growth was facilitated by
our relationships with Merrill Lynch and our investment partnership.
Our lease operation revenues consist primarily of leasing revenues from
leases owned by us before they are sold, asset acquisition fees which are earned
when leases are sold to one of the investment partnerships and asset management
fees which are earned over the life of the lease after a lease is sold. Lease
revenues were $1.0 million and $1.8 million in the three and six months ended
March 31, 2005, an increase of $480,000 (89%) and $777,000 (77%) from $540,000
and $1.0 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively.
The increase in leasing revenues is attributable to the March 2005 interim
expansion of our warehouse lines of credit to $60.0 million from $35.0 million,
which enabled us to maintain a larger lease portfolio, as well as the increase
in our lease originations. Asset management fees were $924,000 and $1.9 million
for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of
$262,000 (40%) and $450,000 (32%) from $662,000 and $1.4 million in the three
and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increase in asset
management fees was due to an increase in assets under management to $253.3
million as of March 31, 2005 from $89.3 million as of March 31, 2004. Asset
acquisition fees were $1.3 million and $2.1 million in the three and six months
ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $881,000 (197%) and $1.3
million (154%) from $448,000 and $817,000 in the three and six months ended
March 31, 2004, respectively. The increase in lease originations for the three
and six months ended March 31, 2005 over March 31, 2004 allowed us to sell more
leases to our investment partnership and Merrill Lynch.
In December 2004, we began a $60.0 million offering of our second
investment partnership, Lease Equity Appreciation Fund II ("LEAF II"). On April
14, 2005, we sold the required number of units which allowed us to break escrow
and commence operations. We will begin selling leases to LEAF II in April 2005.
As of March 31, 2005, Lease Equity Appreciation Fund I, our first investment
partnership, is approaching full investment and has $94.0 million in leased
assets. In March 2005, our agreement with Merrill Lynch Equipment Finance LLC
was extended for two more years until April 2007.
42
Included in other income are gains on lease terminations which vary
from transaction to transaction and can result in significant income variances
from period to period depending upon the termination schedules.
Our equipment leasing expenses were $2.5 million and $4.8 million in
the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, a decrease of
$384,000 (13%) and an increase of $381,000 (9%) from $2.9 million and $4.4
million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively.
Included in equipment leasing expenses for the three and six months ended March
31, 2004 are charges to earnings of $1.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively,
related to the expected reimbursements of capitalized offering costs from our
LEAF I investment partnership. Without those charges, expenses increased
$700,000 (38%) and $1.7 million (62%) in the three and six months ended March
31, 2005, respectively. The increase in expenses is primarily related to an
increase in general corporate overhead and an increase in wages and benefits of
$535,000 and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, due
to the expansion of our leasing operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: STRUCTURED FINANCE
TRAPEZA
We have co-sponsored, structured and currently co-manage seven
collateralized debt obligations ("CDO") CDO issuers holding approximately $2.4
billion in bank and bank holding company trust preferred securities.
We own a 50% interest in an entity that manages five CDO issuers with
collateral pools consisting of the trust preferred securities of financial
institutions and a 33.33% interest in another entity that manages two collateral
pools of trust preferred CDO issuers. We also own a 50% interest in the general
partners of the limited partnerships that own the equity interest of the five
Trapeza CDO issuers (the "Trapeza Partnerships"). We also have invested as a
limited partner in each of these limited partnerships.
We derive revenues from these CDO operations through management and
administration fees. We also receive distributions on amounts we invest in the
limited partnerships. Management fees vary by CDO issuer, but have ranged from
between 0.25% and 0.60% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral
securities owned by the CDO issuers. These fees are also shared with our
co-sponsors. The fees are payable monthly, quarterly or semi-annually, as long
as we continue as the collateral manager of the CDO issuer. Our interest in
distributions from the CDO issuers varies with the amount of our investment in a
particular limited partnership and with the terms of our general partner
interest. We have incentive distribution interests in four of the partnerships.
ISCHUS
In June 2004, we formed Ischus to focus on selecting, managing and
investing in asset backed securities ("ABS") (primarily real estate asset backed
securities) including residential mortgage backed securities and commercial
mortgage backed securities. In December 2004, we closed Ischus CDO LTD, a CDO
with approximately $400.0 million in ABS collateral. Ischus will act as
collateral manager for the CDO.
We own a 50% interest in the general partner of Structured Finance
Fund, L.P. and Structured Finance Fund II, L.P., ("SFF"). These partnerships own
a portion of the equity interests of three Trapeza CDO issuers and one Ischus
CDO issuer. We also have invested as a limited partner in each of these limited
partnerships.
43
We derive revenues from these CDO operations through management and
administration fees. We also receive distributions on amounts we invest in the
limited partnerships. Ischus receives management fees of 0.35% of the aggregate
principal balance of the collateral securities owned by the CDO issuer of which
a portion is subordinated. Our interest in distributions from the CDO issuer
varies with the amount of our investment in a particular limited partnership and
with the terms of our general partner interest.
APIDOS
In January 2005, we formed Apidos to focus on selecting, investing in
and managing syndicated loans. Apidos intends to leverage the Company's
expertise and experience as a CDO collateral manager.
RESOURCE CAPITAL CORP. ("RCC")
In March 2005, we formed RCC, a real estate investment trust, that is
externally managed by Resource Capital Manager, Inc. ("RCM"), an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary. RCC's principal business activity is to purchase and
manage a diversified portfolio of real estate related securities and commercial
finance assets.
We derive revenues from RCC through its management agreement with RCM.
In return for certain investment and advisory services, RCM is entitled to
receive a base management fee, an incentive management fee and a reimbursement
for certain out-of-pocket expenses that relate to RCC. In addition, we have
invested $15.0 million in RCC and expect to receive dividends on our investment
in the future.
In connection with the formation of RCC, we were granted 345,000 shares
of restricted common stock and options to purchase 651,666 common shares at an
exercise price of $15.00 per share. We subsequently transferred 279,000 of
restricted shares to certain members of management. RCC's net equity
compensation is the difference between the revenue recognized on the shares and
the options received and the expense associated with those shares transferred to
management.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
revenues recognized and costs and expenses incurred in our structured finance
operations (in thousands):

Revenues - Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 as Compared to the Three Months
Ended March 31, 2004
Revenues increased $2.8 million (146%) to $4.7 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2005 from $1.9 million in the three months ended March
31, 2004. We attribute the increase to the following:
o a $990,000 increase in collateral management fees for the three
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 2004 was principally caused by the completion of our
seventh Trapeza CDO issuer and our first Ischus CDO issuer,
coupled with a full quarter of collateral management fees for our
fourth, fifth and sixth Trapeza CDO issuers;
o a $323,000 increase in limited partner and general partner
interests for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to
the three months ended March 31, 2004, to $1.4 million from $1.0
million. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in net
unrealized appreciation on the mark-to-market of securities and
swap agreements of $472,000. In addition, there was a decrease in
net reimbursement fees accrued of $145,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 as compared to March 31, 2004 in connection
with the completion of a Trapeza CDO issuer in the three months
ended March 31, 2004. No such fees were accrued at March 31, 2005;
o a $1.2 million increase in equity in earnings of consolidated
partnerships resulting from the following:
- in May 2004, SFF invested $6.9 million in Trapeza CDO V and
VI. In December 2004, SFF invested $4.5 million in Ischus CDO
I. In January 2005, SFF invested $1.3 million in Trapeza CDO
VII. We began to consolidate SFF on July 1, 2004, when we
assumed control. Interest income from SFF investments in
unconsolidated CDO issuers of $1.1 million was recognized in
the three months ended March 31, 2005; and
- in December 2004, we invested $2.5 million in Ischus CDO I
which resulted in the recognition of $133,000 of interest
income in the three months ended March 31, 2005.
o a $336,000 increase in consulting and advisory fees for the three
months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 2004. These fees are the result of a consulting
agreement entered into by Ischus to provide consulting services
relating to structuring of financing transactions. This agreement
terminates on April 8, 2005;
o a $208,000 increase in RCC management fees for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the three months ended March
31, 2004. These fees are the result of the management agreement,
dated March 8, 2005, between RCM and RCC;
o a $149,000 increase in RCC net equity compensation for the three
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 2004. In connection with the formation of RCC, we were
granted 345,000 shares of restricted common stock and options to
purchase 651,666 common shares at an exercise price of $15 per
share. In March 2005, we transferred 279,000 of the restricted
shares to certain members of management. RCC's net equity
compensation is the difference between the revenue recognized on
the shares and the options received and the expense associated
with the shares transferred to management; and
o a decrease of $440,000 in other revenue in the three months ended
March 31, 2005 as compared to the three months ended March 31,
2004. This was primarily due to the accrual of two net
reimbursement fees of $514,000 in anticipation of the completion
of Trapeza CDO V and VI in the three months ended March 31, 2004.
No such fees were accrued in other revenue in the three months
ended March 31, 2005. The fees in the three months ended March 31,
2004 were partially offset by an increase in net operating
expenses of $94,000.
45
Revenues - Six Months Ended March 31, 2005 as Compared to the Six Months Ended
March 31, 2004
Revenues increased $3.1 million (109%) to $6.0 million in the six
months ended March 31, 2005 from $2.9 million in the six months ended March 31,
2004. We attribute the increase to the following:
o a $1.2 million increase in collateral management fees for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2004 which was principally caused by the completion of
our seventh Trapeza CDO issuer and our first Ischus CDO issuer,
coupled with six months of collateral management fees for our
fourth, fifth and sixth Trapeza CDO issuers;
o a $275,000 increase in revenues from limited partner and general
partner interests resulting from the following:
- a $140,000 increase in net unrealized appreciation on
mark-to-market securities and swap agreements in the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months
ended March 31, 2004;
- an increase of $293,000 from our general and limited partner
share of the operating results of our unconsolidated Trapeza
Partnerships for the six months ended March 31, 2005 as
compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004. The increase
was the result of having five Trapeza Partnerships for the
entire six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to three
Trapeza Partnerships for the entire six months ended March 31,
2004; and
- a $166,000 decrease from net reimbursement fees accrued for
the six months ended March 31, 2004 in connection with the
completion of Trapeza CDO issuers in the six months ended
March 31, 2004. No such fees were accrued at March 31, 2005.
o a $1.2 million increase in equity in earnings of consolidated
partnerships of resulting from the following:
- in May 2004, SFF invested $6.9 million in Trapeza CDO V and
VI. In December 2004, SFF invested $4.5 million in Ischus CDO
I. In January 2005, SFF invested $1.3 million in Trapeza CDO
VII. We began to consolidate SFF in July 1, 2004 when we
assumed control. Interest income from SFF investments in
unconsolidated CDO issuers of $1.1 million was recognized in
the six months ended March 31, 2005; and
- in December 2004, we invested $2.5 million in Ischus CDO I.
Interest income from our investments in unconsolidated CDO
issuers of $112,000 was recognized in the six months ended
March 31, 2005.
o a $530,000 increase in consulting and advisory fees for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months
ended March 31, 2004;
o a $208,000 increase in RCC management fees for the six months
ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31,
2004. These fees are the result of the management agreement, dated
March 8, 2005, between RCM and RCC, previously described. These
fees are paid on a monthly basis;
o a $149,000 increase in RCC net equity compensation for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2004. In connection with the formation of RCC, we were
granted 345,000 shares of restricted common stock and options to
purchase 651,666 common shares at an exercise price of $15 per
share. In March 2005, we transferred 279,000 of these shares to
certain members of management. RCC's net equity compensation is
the difference between the revenue recognized on the shares and
the options received and the expense associated with the shares
transferred to management; and
46
o a decrease of $407,000 in other revenue in the six months ended
March 31, 2005, as compared to the six months ended March 31,
2004. This was primarily due to the accrual of two net
reimbursement fees of $514,000 in anticipation of the completion
of Trapeza CDO V and VI in the six months ended March 31, 2004. No
such fees were accrued in other revenue in the six months ended
March 31, 2005. These fees in the six months ended March 31, 2004
were partially offset by an increase in net operating expenses of
$94,000.
Costs and Expenses for the Three and Six Months March 31, 2005 and 2004
Our structured finance expenses were $1.8 million and $2.4 million for
the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. These expenses
represent costs associated with our sponsorship and management of investment
partnerships in the trust preferred, asset backed securities and syndicated loan
areas. These expenses include primarily salaries and benefits and legal and
professional fees associated with the significant growth of our structured
finance businesses. These expenses were partially offset by reimbursements of
$1.0 million from the closing of Ischus CDO I for the three and six months ended
March 31, 2005. Expenses totaling $823,000 have been specifically identified as
relating to RCC start-up costs on the consolidated statement of income for the
three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.
Our sturctured finance expenses were $74,000 and $413,000 in the three
and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. These expenses represent
costs associated with our sponsorship and management of investment partnerships
in the trust preferred area. These expenses include primarily salaries and
benefits and legal and professional fees.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: OTHER COSTS AND EXPENSES AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
Our general and administrative expenses were $2.2 million and $3.7
million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an
increase of $631,000 (40%) and $143,000 (4%) as compared to $1.6 million and
$3.6 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively.
The company expended an additional $566,000 in accounting and consulting fees
during the first six months of 2005 related in part to additional auditing,
monitoring and testing of accounting systems as required by Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Our depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $5.5 million
and $12.0 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, an increase of $1.3 million (32%) and $4.1 million (52%) as
compared to $4.1 million and $7.9 million for the three and six months ended
March 31, 2004, respectively. This increase arose primarily from our energy
operations. Our depletion of oil and gas properties as a percentage of oil and
gas revenues was 20 % and 19% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, as compared to 21% for the three and six months ended March 31,
2004. Depletion expense per mcfe was $1.36 and $1.29 for the three and six
months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $.12 (10%) per mcfe
and $.14 (12%) per mcfe from the $1.24 and $1.15 for the three and six months
ended March 31, 2004, respectively. Increases in our depletable basis and
production volumes caused depletion expense to increase $240,000 (10%) and
$730,000 (15%) to $2.8 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months
ended March 31, 2005, respectively, compared to $2.5 million and $4.7 million in
the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The variances from
period to period are directly attributable to changes in our oil and gas reserve
quantities, product prices and changes in the depletable cost basis of our oil
and gas properties.
Our provision for possible losses decreased to $161,000 for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 from $400,000 for the six months ended March 31,
2004. This decrease reflects primarily our decreased investment in our real
estate loan portfolio and other real estate assets owned through the repayment
of loans and property resolutions during the past twelve months.
47
Interest expense was $2.2 million and $4.6 million for the three and
six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, an increase of $748,000 and
$53,000, as compared to $1.5 million and $4.5 million for the three and six
months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increase in interest expense
reflects the higher borrowings on our credit facilities, primarily used to fund
the expansion of our businesses including acquisitions made by Atlas Pipeline
and LEAF, offset in part by the reduction of interest from the prior year
redemption of our 12% senior notes during the six months ended March 31, 2004
and the repayment of other debt related to our real estate operations.
At March 31, 2005, we owned 24% of Atlas Pipeline through both our
general partner interest and our limited partner units, compared to 39% at March
31, 2004, as a result of the completion by Atlas Pipeline of its secondary
equity offerings of its common units in April and July 2004. As the general
partner, we control the operations of Atlas Pipeline, and therefore include it
in our consolidated financial statements and show the ownership by the public as
a minority interest. The minority interest in Atlas Pipeline's earnings was $2.5
million and $9.7 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2005,
respectively, an increase of $1.2 million and $7.1 million, as compared to $1.3
million and $2.6 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004,
respectively. This increase was the result of an increase in the percentage
interest of public unitholders and an increase in Atlas Pipeline's net income,
principally as a result of the settlement of the terminated Alaska Pipeline
arbitration, the acquisition of the Spectrum and increases in transportation
rates received. Atlas Pipeline's transportation rates vary, to a significant
extent, with the prices of natural gas and natural gas liquids, which, on
average, were higher in the three and six months ended March 31, 2005 than the
three and six months ended March 31, 2004.
At March 31, 2005, we owned a 15.1% and 36.1% limited partner interest
in Structured Finance Fund, L.P. and Structured Finance Fund II, L.P., ("SFF"),
respectively, limited partnerships formed to invest in the equity of CDO issuers
we have formed. We also own a 50% interest in Structured Finance Management, LLC
and Structured Finance Fund GP LLC, the manager and general partner,
respectively, of the SFF. As the general partner, we control the operations of
the SFF and, therefore, include it in our consolidated financial statements and
reflect the ownership of the partners as a minority interest. For the six months
ended March 31, 2005, we recorded $743,000 of minority interest related to these
entities. As of March 31, 2004, these entities were not yet formed.
Other income, net, was $50,000 and $7.8 million for the three and six
months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, a decrease of $3.2 million and an
increase of $2.7 million, as compared to $3.2 million and $5.1 million for the
three and six months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. The increase for the
first six months of fiscal 2005 primarily reflects the $4.3 million we received
in December 2004, net of expenses, upon the settlement of the arbitration
associated with our terminated Alaska Pipeline acquisition. Additionally, in
November 2004, we had received a $1.4 million settlement against one of our
directors' and officers' liability insurance carriers for reimbursement of our
costs. During the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, we sold 105,000 and
447,700 shares, respectively, of RAIT and recorded gains of $1.5 million and
$5.5 million, respectively. Dividend income from RAIT decreased by $663,000 to
$8,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2005 from $671,000 for the six
months ended March 31, 2004 as a result of these sales. As of March 31, 2005, we
own approximately 5,600 shares of RAIT. The three and six months ended March 31,
2004 reflected charges of $428,000 and $2.0 million, respectively, related to
the write-off of deferred finance costs and the premium paid on the redemption
of our 12% senior notes.
Our effective tax rate was 35% for the three months and six months
ended March 31, 2005, a 1% increase as compared to the 34% effective rate for
the three and six months ended March 31, 2004. The increase in rate reflects the
reduced benefit of statutory depletion and tax exempt interest relative to the
increase in our pre-tax income.
48
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In accordance with SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long Lived Assets," our decision to dispose of certain real estate properties
resulted in the presentation of these assets, liabilities and operations as
discontinued operations. We classified three FIN 46 entities and two real estate
properties owned as held for sale at March 31, 2005 and have reported their
operations as discontinued.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General. Our major sources of liquidity have historically been funds
generated by operations, funds raised and fees earned from investment
partnerships, resolutions of real estate loans, borrowings under our existing
energy, real estate, leasing and corporate credit facilities and sales of our
RAIT shares. We have employed these funds principally to expand our energy and
specialized asset management operations and to reduce our outstanding debt and
for the redemption of our senior notes. The following table sets forth our
sources and uses of cash for the periods presented (in thousands):
SIX MONTHS ENDED

----------- -----------
$ (14,137) $ (14,040)
=========== ===========
We had $55.0 million in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2005
compared to $69.1 million at September 30, 2004. Our ratio of earnings from
continuing operations before income taxes, minority interest and interest
expense to fixed charges was 10.1 to 1.0 for the six months ended March 31, 2005
as compared to 5.0 to 1.0 for the six months ended March 31, 2004. Our working
capital was $28.3 million as of March 31, 2005 as compared to $54.5 million at
September 30, 2004. The decrease primarily reflected our investments in drilling
partnerships and structured finance entities. Our ratio of long-term debt
(including current maturities) to equity was 57% and 50% at March 31, 2005 and
September 30, 2004, respectively.
Our liquidity is affected by national, regional and local economic
trends and uncertainties as well as trends and uncertainties more particular to
us, including natural gas prices, interest rates, and our ability to raise funds
through our sponsorship of investment partnerships. While the current favorable
natural gas pricing and interest rate environment have been positive
contributors to our liquidity and lead us to believe that we will be able to
refinance, repay, or renew, our indebtedness as it matures, there are numerous
risks and uncertainties involved. Factors affecting our liquidity, as well as
the risks and uncertainties relating to our ability to generate this liquidity,
are described in "-Results of Operations," and "-Contractual Obligations and
Commercial Commitments," as well as in Item 1, "Business-Risk Factors" in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2004.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating
activities of continuing operations is an important source of short-term
liquidity for us. It is directly affected by changes in the prices of natural
gas and oil, interest rates, our ability to raise funds for our investment
partnerships, obtaining sufficient financing for our operational expansion, and
the strength of the market for rentals of the types of properties secured by our
real estate loans and real estate. Net cash provided by operating activities
increased $8.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to
the six months ended March 31, 2004, substantially as a result of the following:
49
o our net income, before depreciation, depletion and amortization,
increased by $10.6 million;
o changes in operating assets and liabilities accounted for a $13.7
million decrease in cash flows, primarily as a result of an
increase in the drilling obligations related to our investment
partnerships; and
o minority interests increased by $11.3 million, reflecting
primarily the May 2004 initial public offering of Atlas America
and two follow on offerings by Atlas Pipeline in addition to the
increased earnings generated by those entities.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used in our investing
activities of continuing operations decreased by $55.1 million for the six
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004,
primarily reflective of the following:
o capital expenditures increased by $23.0 million due to an increase
in the number of wells we drilled and expenditures related to
Atlas Pipeline's gathering system extensions and compressor
upgrades;
o we invested $15.0 million in RCC, an affiliated real estate
investment trust we formed in March 2005;
o structured finance investments increased by $4.3 million,
primarily reflecting our investment in the Ischus initial CDO; and
o a decrease of $8.6 million net proceeds received from the sale of
shares we held of RAIT Investment Trust to $2.9 million for the
six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to $11.5 million for
the six months ended March 31, 2004.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by our
financing activities of continuing operations increased by $73.5 million for the
six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31,
2004. This increase in our cash flows is principally reflective of the
following, as follows:
o our borrowings, net of repayments, increased by $75.3 million in
the six months ended March 31, 2005, principally to fund the
acquisitions made by our energy and leasing companies and
increased lease originations;
o dividends paid to minority interests increased by $5.1 million as
a result of higher earnings and more common units outstanding for
Atlas Pipeline as a result of its fiscal 2004 offerings of its
common units; and
o we received $3.6 million of additional investor contributions,
principally in our Structure Finance Fund II.
Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations. Net cash provided by
discontinued operations decreased by $27.4 million for the six months ended
March 31, 2005 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2004. We received
$6.9 million principally from the proceeds from refinancing a first mortgage on
a FIN 46 property during the six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to
$34.3 million of proceeds received related to the sale of two FIN 46 assets
during the comparable period last year.
50
Capital Requirements
During the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2003, our capital
expenditures related primarily to investments in our drilling partnerships and
pipeline expansions, in which we invested $20.2 million and $17.3 million,
respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2005 and the remaining quarters
of fiscal 2005, we funded and expect to continue to fund these capital
expenditures through cash on hand, borrowings under our credit facilities, and
from operations. We have established two credit facilities to facilitate the
funding of our capital expenditures. In September 2004, the borrowing base under
Atlas Pipeline's credit facility was increased to $75.0 million from $65.0
million. In December 2004, the borrowing base further was further increased to
$90.0 million.
The level of capital expenditures we must devote to our exploration and
production operations depends upon the level of funds raised through our
drilling investment partnerships. We have budgeted to raise up to $138.0 million
in fiscal 2005 through drilling partnerships. During the six months ended March
31, 2005, we raised $62.3 million. We believe cash flows from operations and
amounts available under our energy credit facility will be adequate to fund our
contributions to these partnerships. However, the amount of funds we raise and
the level of our capital expenditures will vary in the future depending on
market conditions for natural gas and other factors.
We continuously evaluate acquisitions of gas and oil and pipeline
assets. In order to make any acquisition, we believe we will be required to
access outside capital either through debt or equity placements or through joint
venture operations with other energy companies. There can be no assurance that
we will be successful in our efforts to obtain outside capital.
In addition, the amount of funds we must commit to investments in our
real estate, equipment leasing and structured finance operations depends upon
the level of funds raised through real estate, equipment leasing and structured
finance partnerships. We believe cash flows from operations, cash on hand and
amounts available under our real estate and equipment leasing credit facilities
will be adequate to fund our contribution to these partnerships. However, the
amount of funds we raise and the level of our investments will vary in the
future depending on market conditions.

A real estate investment partnership in which we have a general partner
interest has obtained senior lien financing with respect to five properties it
acquired. The senior liens are with recourse only to the properties securing
them subject to certain standard exceptions, which we have guaranteed. These
guarantees expire as the related indebtedness is paid down over the next ten
years. In addition, property owners have obtained senior lien financing with
respect to five of our real estate investments. The senior liens are with
recourse only to the properties securing them subject to certain standard
exceptions, which we have guaranteed. These guarantees expire as the related
indebtedness is paid down over the next five years.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires
us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our
assets, liabilities, revenues and cost and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our
estimates, including those related to the provision for possible losses,
deferred tax assets and liabilities, goodwill and identifiable intangible
assets, and certain accrued liabilities. We base our estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.
For a detailed discussion on the application of policies critical to
our business operations and other accounting policies, see our annual report on
Form 10-K for fiscal 2004, at Note 2 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements."
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Assets Retirement
Obligations" ("FIN 47"), which will result in (a) more consistent recognition of
liabilities relating to asset retirement obligations, (b) more information about
expected future cash outflows associated with those obligations, and (c) more
information about investments in long-lived assets because additional asset
retirement cost will be recognized as part of the carrying amounts of the
assets. FIN 47 clarifies that the term conditional asset retirement obligation
as used in SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," refers to a
legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and
(or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not
be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset
retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the
timing and (or) method of settlement. Uncertainty about the timing and (or)
method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be
factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information
exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information
to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47
is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15,
2005. Retrospective application of interim financial information is permitted
but is not required. Early adoption of this interpretation is encouraged. As FIN
47 was recently issued, we have not determined whether the interpretation will
have a significant adverse effect on its financial position or results of
operations.
52
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123-R "Share-Based Payment"
("SFAS 123-R"), which is a revision of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." SFAS 123-R supersedes Accounting Principal Board Opinion ("APB")
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and amends SFAS 95, "Statement
of Cash Flows." Generally, the approach to accounting in SFAS 123-R requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options,
to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.
Currently, we account for these payments under the intrinsic value provisions of
APB 25 with no expense recognition in the financial statements. SFAS 123-R is
effective for us beginning July 1, 2005. The Statement offers several
alternatives for implementation. At this time, management has not made a
decision as to which alternative it may select.
In April 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 19-1 ("FSP
FAS 19-1"), which addressed a discussion that was ongoing within the oil and gas
industry regarding capitalization of costs of drilling exploratory wells.
Paragraph 19 of SFAS 19, Financial Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas
Producing Companies ("SFAS 19"), requires costs of drilling exploratory wells to
be capitalized pending determination of whether the well has found proved
reserves. If the well has found proved reserves, the capitalized costs become
part of the entity's wells, equipment, and facilities; if, however, the well has
not found proved reserves, the capitalized costs of drilling the well are
expensed.
Questions arose in practice about the application of this guidance due
to changes in oil and gas exploration processes and lifecycles. The issue was
whether there are circumstances that would permit the continued capitalization
of exploratory well costs if reserves cannot be classified as proved within one
year following the completion of drilling other than when additional exploration
wells are necessary to justify major capital expenditures and those wells are
underway or firmly planned for the near future. FSP FAS 19-1 amends SFAS 19
to allow for the continued capitalization of suspended well costs when the well
has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a
producing well and the enterprise is making sufficient progress assessing the
reserves and the economic and operating viability of the plan. This guidance
requires management to exercise more judgment than was previously required and
also requires additional disclosure. This new guidance is effective for the
first reporting period beginning after April 4, 2005 and is to be applied
prospectively to existing and newly capitalized exploratory well costs. We do
not believe this statement of position will have a significant effect on our
financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The primary objective of the following information is to provide
forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about our potential
exposure to market risks. The following discussion is not meant to be a precise
indicator of expected future losses, but rather an indicator of reasonable
possible losses. This forward-looking information provides indicators of how we
view and manage our ongoing market risk exposures. All of our market
risk-sensitive instruments were entered into for purposes other than trading.
GENERAL
We are exposed to various market risks, principally fluctuating
interest rates and changes in commodity prices. These risks can impact our
results of operations, cash flows and financial position. We manage these risks
through regular operating and financing activities and periodically use
derivative financial instruments such as forward contracts and interest rate cap
and swap agreements.
53
The following analysis presents the effect on our earnings, cash flows
and financial position as if hypothetical changes in market risk factors
occurred at March 31, 2005. Only the potential impacts of hypothetical
assumptions are analyzed. The analysis does not consider other possible effects
that could impact our business.
ENERGY
Interest Rate Risk. At March 31, 2005, the amount outstanding under our
credit facility had increased to $50.0 million from $25.0 million at September
30, 2004. The weighted average interest rate for this facility increased from
4.1% at September 30, 2004 to 5.4% at March 31, 2005 due to a larger portion of
our borrowings tied to the bank's prime rate.
At March 31, 2005, Atlas Pipeline had a $90.0 million revolving credit
facility ($10.0 million outstanding) and a $45.0 million term loan ($43.7
million outstanding) to fund the expansion of its existing gathering systems and
the acquisitions of other gas gathering systems. The weighted average interest
rate for these borrowings increased from 5.7% at September 30, 2004 to 5.5% at
March 31, 2005 due to a larger portion of our borrowings tied to the bank's
LIBOR rate.
Holding all other variables constant, if interest rates hypothetically
increased or decreased by 10%, our annual net income would have changed by
approximately $176,000.
Commodity Price Risk. Our major market risk exposure in commodities is
fluctuations in the pricing of our gas and oil production. Realized pricing is
primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide prices for crude oil and spot
market prices applicable to United States natural gas production. Pricing for
gas and oil production has been volatile and unpredictable for many years. To
limit our exposure to changing natural gas prices, we use hedges. Through our
hedges, we seek to provide a measure of stability in the volatile environment of
natural gas prices. Our risk management objective is to lock in a range of
pricing for expected production volumes.
We also are exposed to commodity prices as a result of being paid for
certain services in the form of commodities rather than cash. For gathering
services, we receive fees or commodities from the producers to bring the raw
natural gas from the wellhead to the processing plant.
For processing services, we either receive fees or commodities as
payment for these services, based on the type of contractual agreement. Based on
Atlas Pipeline's current contract mix, we have a long condensate, NGL and
natural gas position. Based upon Atlas Pipeline's portfolio of supply contracts,
a change in the average price of 10% of NGLs, natural gas and crude oil sold and
processed by Atlas Pipeline would result in a change to our annual net income of
approximately $24,000.
Atlas Pipeline acquired and/or entered into certain financial swap and
option instruments that are classified as cash flow hedges in accordance with
SFAS 133. Atlas Pipeline entered into these instruments to hedge the forecasted
natural gas, natural gas liquids and condensate sales against the variability in
expected future cash flows attributable to changes in market prices. The swap
instruments are contractual agreements between counterparties to exchange
obligations of money as the underlying natural gas, natural gas liquids and
condensate is sold. Under these swap agreements, Atlas Pipeline receives a fixed
price and pays a floating price based on certain indices for the relevant
contract period. The options fix the price for Atlas Pipeline within the puts
purchased and calls sold.
54
Derivatives are recorded on our consolidated balance sheets as assets
or liabilities at fair value. For derivatives qualifying as hedges, the
effective portion of changes in fair value are recognized in stockholders'
equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to
earnings as such transactions are settled. For non-qualifying derivatives and
for the ineffective portion of qualifying derivatives, changes in fair value are
recognized in earnings as they occur. At March 31, 2005, Atlas Pipeline
reflected an unrealized net pre-tax commodity hedging loss of $10.8 million on
its balance sheet. Of the Company's $1.7 million in accumulated other
comprehensive loss related to unrealized hedging losses at March 31, 2005, $1.1
million of losses will be reclassified to earnings over the next twelve month
period as these contracts expire, and $600,000 will be later periods, if future
prices remained constant. Actual amounts that will be reclassified will vary as
a result of future change in prices. Ineffective gains or losses are recorded in
income while the hedge contract is open and may increase or decrease until
settlement of the contract. Atlas Pipeline recognized a loss of $669,000 and
$645,000 related to these hedging instruments in the three and six months ended
March 31, 2005, respectively. A hedging loss of $224,000 and a hedging gain of
$216,000 resulting from ineffective hedges is included in energy revenues for
the three and six months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.
A portion of our future natural gas sales is periodically hedged
through the use of swap and collar contracts. Realized gains and losses on these
instruments are reflected in the contract month being hedged as an adjustment to
energy revenues.
REAL ESTATE
Portfolio Loans and Related Senior Liens. We believe that none of the
five loans held in our portfolio as of March 31, 2005 (including loans treated
in our consolidated financial statements as FIN 46 entities) are sensitive to
changes in interest rates since:
o the loans are subject to forbearance or other agreements that
require all of the operating cash flow from the properties
underlying the loans, after debt service on senior lien interests,
to be paid to us and thus are not currently being paid based on
the stated interest rates of the loans;
o the senior lien interests ahead of our interests are at fixed
rates and are thus not subject to interest rate fluctuation that
would affect payments to us; and
o each loan has significant accrued and unpaid interest and other
charges outstanding to which cash flow from the underlying
property would be applied even if cash flow were to exceed the
interest due, as originally underwritten.
FIN 46 Loans. Three of the four loans we treated as FIN 46 liabilities
upon adoption of FIN 46-R are at fixed interest rates and are thus not subject
to interest rate fluctuations. One loan is variable but the impact on annual net
income is immaterial.
EQUIPMENT LEASING
At March 31, 2005, the amount outstanding on the $45.0 million LEAF
credit facility with National City Bank was $27.6 million at a weighted average
interest rate of 5.8%; while the amount outstanding on its $15.0 million credit
facility with Commerce Bank was $3.3 million at a weighted average interest rate
of 5.7%. A hypothetical 10% change in the weighted average interest rates on
these facilities would change our annual net income by approximately $126,000.
55
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports
required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial
Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply
its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls
and procedures.
Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer and with the participation of our disclosure committee
appointed by such officers, we have carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the
period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective.
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over
financial reporting that has partially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during our most
recent fiscal quarter.
