NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. Dollar amounts in tables are in thousands. Certain 2003 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation.
NOTE 2. STOCK OPTION PLANS
In 2002, we adopted the fair value method defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, in accounting for our stock option plans, where previously we applied the Accounting Principles Boards Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. We elected to apply it prospectively for all options granted or modified since the beginning of 2002, as allowed by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure. Because some awards under the plans vest over periods ranging from one to five years, the cost related to stock-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per common share as if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
NOTE 3. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation 46-R (FIN 46R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, Consolidated Financial Statements. FIN 46R changes the criteria by which one company includes another entity in its consolidated financial statements. FIN 46R requires a variable interest entity (VIE) to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIEs activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entitys residual returns or both. Additionally, if the holders of equity at risk as a group do not have controlling financial interest, the entity may be defined as a VIE. Once an entity is determined to be a VIE, the primary beneficiary must consolidate the VIE into its financial statements.
We adopted the provisions of FIN 46R on January 1, 2004, and identified seven partnerships and joint ventures, over which we exercise significant influence but do not control, which qualified as VIEs and of which we are the primary beneficiary. These seven entities, previously accounted for using the equity method, have been consolidated in accordance with FIN 46R. Their assets and liabilities were recorded at carrying value. The seven entities consist of three limited partnerships engaged in homebuilding and one partnership and three limited liability companies which own and operate rental apartment communities with 1,226 units. The consolidation of these seven entities increased assets by $341 million as of June 30, 2004. Gross revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, includes rentals of $3.2 million and $6.2 million, respectively, and respective homebuilding sales of $17 million and $40 million produced by these seven newly consolidated entities. One Las Olas, Ltd. is the most significant of the VIEs consolidated with $195 million in assets as of June 30, 2004 and gross revenue of $17 million and $40 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. One Las Olas, Ltd. is a limited partnership currently developing Las Olas River House, a luxury high-rise condominium development in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

NOTE 5. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share have been computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used in the computation of earnings per share and earnings per share assuming dilution. The information presented for 2003 has been restated to give effect to the five-for-four stock split in January 2004.

On a weighted average basis, options to purchase 3,598,174 shares of common stock at a price of $5.66 were outstanding during the six month period ended June 30, 2003. Their effect is not reflected in the computation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding assuming dilution because their effect is antidilutive due to a loss from continuing operations allocable to common stockholders during the period. During all periods presented, the exercise prices of all options were less than the market prices of the common stock.
On a weighted average basis, options to purchase 3,581,783 shares of common stock at a price of $5.66 were outstanding during the three month period ended June 30, 2003. Their effect is not reflected in the computation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding assuming dilution because their effect is antidilutive due to a loss from continuing operations allocable to common stockholders during the period.
The convertible preferred interest of minority partner in consolidated joint venture represents the preferred interest of Mr. Robert Rohdie in a joint venture we consolidate. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, his interest was convertible into 445,398 shares. However, its effect is not reflected in weighted average shares of common stock outstanding assuming dilution because its effect is antidilutive due to losses from continuing operations allocable to common stockholders in these periods.

NOTE 6. SEGMENT REPORTING
Our business is divided into two principal segments homebuilding and the operation of our investment portfolio. Our Homebuilding Division has become the main focus of our business in terms of financial and human capital. Our activities in the Homebuilding Division encompass condominium conversions of existing apartment communities, the development of town homes, carriage homes, and new, mid-rise or high-rise condominiums for sale to residents, the sale of single-family home sites to homebuilders, and development of new investment properties, primarily apartment communities, which, upon stabilization, become part of our investment portfolio.
Our investment portfolio of stabilized apartment communities and commercial properties is the larger segment in terms of assets. Funds generated by the operation, sale, or refinancing of properties in the investment portfolio support our overhead and finance our homebuilding activities. We transfer rental properties from the Homebuilding Division to the Investment Division once they have achieved stabilized operations, as defined below. We transfer properties from the Investment Division to the Homebuilding Division if we have initiated renovation, reposition, or condominium conversion activities.

NOTE 6. SEGMENT REPORTING (Continued)
Also included in the Homebuilding Division are rental communities under development or in initial lease-up, existing rental communities under renovation or reposition, and land held for development or sale. The Homebuilding Division has 216 apartments in one rental community, one community with 262 apartments under construction, and land for the development of two additional communities with 270 apartments.
We measure the performance of our Homebuilding Division primarily by gross profit from home sales. Intercompany sales, which represent the transfer of properties from the Homebuilding Division to the Investment Division, are also included in the following operating statements for 2003 for the Homebuilding Division. The sale prices for these properties were their estimated fair market values as of the date of transfer, and the cost of sales was their net carrying values as of the same date. Gains on transfers of assets between segments do not represent gains recognizable in accordance with GAAP and, accordingly, are eliminated for purposes of consolidated reporting. Beginning in 2004, properties are transferred between divisions at cost, and we do not report intercompany sales.
Investment. This division includes properties with stabilized operations. We consider a property stabilized when development or renovation is substantially complete and recurring operating income exceeds operating expenses and debt service. The Investment Division has 10,291 consolidated stabilized apartments and 3,868 stabilized apartments owned through unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. It also has consolidated commercial properties with 1.1 million square feet and commercial properties owned through unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures with 267,022 square feet.
We use net operating income to measure the performance of our Investment Division. Net operating income is defined as rental revenue less property operating expenses (excluding depreciation). We believe net operating income is an important supplemental measure of operating performance of our investment properties because it provides a measure of the core operations of the properties. Additionally, we believe that net operating income, as defined, is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. We believe that net income <loss> is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to net operating income. The operating statements for the Investment Division present reconciliations of Investment Division net operating income to Investment Division net income <loss>.
We allocate our general and administrative expenses between the segments based on the functions of the corporate departments. We allocate other corporate items, including interest income, management fee and other revenue, and minority interests in income of consolidated partnerships and joint ventures that are not directly associated with one of our divisions in the same proportions as general and administrative expenses are allocated.
Following are operating statements and balance sheets for our two divisions and net operating income for our Investment Division. In our segment operating statements, we do not distinguish between consolidated and unconsolidated properties. We have provided a reconciliation of segment revenues to consolidated revenue following the operating statements, balance sheets, and summary of investment division net operating income.

TARRAGON CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES
At December 31, 2003, Tarragon had Federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $71.2 million. As a result of the level of income generated in the second quarter, we have concluded that realization of our deferred tax asset is more likely than not. Accordingly, the valuation allowance in the amount of $5 million has been eliminated by a credit to income in the second quarter.
NOTE 8. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, operating results for properties for which we implemented plans of disposals after the adoption of this statement have been reported in discontinued operations. Discontinued operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, include the operations of one property sold in 2004 and seven properties sold during 2003. Total revenues for these properties for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, were $176,000 and $382,000. Total revenues for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, were $1.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The operations of these properties were previously reported in the Investment Division.
NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Tarragon is not aware of any liability relating to federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations that would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, or results of operations. However, in April 2003, in connection with the condominium conversion of Pine Crest Village at Victoria Park, a contractor for Tarragon may have inadvertently disturbed asbestos-containing materials. Such actions are currently under investigation by the Environmental Protection Agency and may result in civil and/or criminal proceedings under applicable law. The extent of any resulting liability is unknown at this time. We have incurred legal and other professional fees and costs of relocating residents in connection with this matter totaling $326,000 to date. Remediation has been completed at a total cost of $800,000.
Tarragon is also party to various claims and routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the results of such claims and litigation, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in Risks Associated with Forward Looking Statements. Actual results may differ from those contained in any such forward-looking statements. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in this document. In the following discussion, dollar amounts in tables are in thousands except for per unit or per share amounts.
Business Overview
General
We are a real estate owner, developer, and builder of homes with over 30 years of experience in the real estate industry. We operate through two business segments:
| the Investment Division, which owns, acquires, and operates residential and commercial rental properties, including almost 5,000 garden apartment homes in communities we developed; and | |||
| the Homebuilding Division, which develops, renovates, builds, and markets homes in high-density, urban in-fill locations and in master-planned communities and develops and sells lots in single-family subdivisions. |
Investment Division. The Investment Division continues to be our larger segment in terms of assets. Funds generated by the operation, sale, or refinancing of properties in the investment portfolio support our overhead, service our outstanding indebtedness and finance our development activities. We measure the performance of the Investment Division primarily by net operating income (rental revenue less property operating expenses) of both consolidated and unconsolidated stabilized rental apartment communities and commercial properties.
Homebuilding Division. Over the past seven years, we have substantially increased our investment in homebuilding and development. We have devoted significant resources to our Homebuilding Division in terms of financial investment and human capital. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, approximately 67% of our corporate and property general and administrative expenses was charged to the homebuilding division. Because of the long lead time for large projects in urban areas, we are just starting to recognize revenues from some of our earliest projects, which began in 2000. We measure the performance of the Homebuilding Division primarily by gross profit from home sales of its for-sale communities.
Revenue. Our revenue is principally derived from:
| Rental revenues associated with leases of apartments to residents and office and retail space to commercial tenants; and | |||
| Homebuilding sales, which represent sales of condominium homes, townhomes, and residential lots reported on either the completed contract or percentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition; |
21
Expenses. Our expenses principally consist of:
| Property operating expenses, which are costs associated with operating, leasing, and maintaining rental apartment communities and office and retail properties, including payroll and benefit expenses of site-level employees; | |||
| Costs of homebuilding sales, which include construction costs, costs of construction supervision, marketing, commissions and other selling costs, interest, developer fees, architectural and engineering fees; | |||
| Depreciation of rental apartment communities and office and retail properties; and | |||
| General and administrative expenses, a significant portion of which consist of compensation and benefits and other personnel-related costs. |
Other income and expenses. Other income and expenses include:
| Interest expense related to mortgages and other debt; | |||
| Equity in income of partnerships and joint ventures, which represents our pro rata share of the net income or net loss of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and may include income from distributions received from those entities in excess of our share of their income when we have recovered our investment in them. The source of most of such distributions is generally proceeds from sales of properties or financings; | |||
| Gain on sales of real estate, which generally consists of gain from sales of assets in our Investment Division; and | |||
| Minority interests in consolidated partnerships and joint ventures, which consists of our partners pro rata share of gross profit from homebuilding sales, our partners pro rata share of net income or net loss resulting from rental operations, and the return on a preferred interest in Tarragon Development Company, LLC, which owns interests in nine rental apartment communities. |
Outlook
Our Investment Division has recently experienced increased rental revenues and net operating income for two reasons. First, we have devoted more resources to leasing efforts in order to maintain occupancy levels in highly competitive rental markets. The availability of low cost mortgage financing, while a benefit to our sales efforts in the Homebuilding Division, creates more competition among rental communities for residents desiring rental housing. The more intensive leasing efforts have resulted not only in maintaining occupancy levels but also in increased rental revenue and higher net operating income for our same store properties. Second, our investment portfolio has grown as a result of the transfer from the Homebuilding Division to the Investment Division of newly constructed or repositioned properties upon their stabilization.
We continue to evaluate investment opportunities for additions to our investment portfolio. In May 2004, we acquired a 158-unit rental apartment community in New Haven, Connecticut. This brings the size of our Connecticut portfolio, which has historically been one of the stronger-performing markets, to 2,707 apartments. The Homebuilding Division has also acquired land in Meriden, Connecticut, for development of a 180-unit rental apartment community, which, upon completion and stabilization, will be transferred to the investment portfolio. The Homebuilding Division also has three other rental communities in various stages of development that are planned additions to the investment portfolio:
| 90 affordable apartments in Hoboken, New Jersey, neighboring our for-sale communities of XII Hundred Grand, XIII Hundred Grand, and 1100 Adams; | |||
| 262 apartments in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, where we previously built 278 rental apartments for our investment portfolio; and |
22
| 328 apartments in Ocala, Florida, the state in which approximately two-thirds of the 5,000 rental apartment homes we have built are located. |
Our Homebuilding Division has experienced rapid growth in the last few years. Many of our communities are targeted at highly defined market segments in keeping with the more varied lifestyles often associated with the urban areas where our homebuilding is concentrated. We believe the urban in-fill segment of the homebuilding business will continue to present growth opportunities due to several factors:
| Scarcity of suburban land for development and increased restrictions and controls on growth in many areas channeling a larger share of new construction into urban areas; | |||
| Demographic trends of increased immigration, smaller households, and later marriages tend to favor demand in urban as opposed to suburban areas; and | |||
| The recent investment performance of residential real estate and the availability and low cost of mortgage financing resulting in more demand for home ownership instead of renting. |
Factors Affecting Comparability of Results of Operations
Application of FIN 46R. One factor that may affect the comparability of our results is the application of FASB Interpretation 46-R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, or FIN 46R. On January 1, 2004, we adopted the provisions of FIN 46R for our partnerships and joint ventures formed before February 1, 2003. As a result of the application of FIN 46R, we were required to consolidate seven of our joint ventures that were previously unconsolidated, including the partnership that holds the Las Olas River House development. The consolidation of these seven entities increased our total consolidated assets by $340.5 million and total liabilities by $258.3 million as of June 30, 2004. Gross revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, included homebuilding sales of $22.6 million and $39.5 million and rental revenue of $3 million and $6.2 million produced by these seven newly consolidated entities. In addition, the segment results for our Investment and Homebuilding Divisions do not distinguish between revenues generated by consolidated and unconsolidated entities, so the revenues reflected in the segment results may not be fully comparable with our consolidated results.
Distributions in Excess of Investment in Unconsolidated Entities. Distributions in excess of investment in our unconsolidated entities are primarily related to distributions by those entities of non-recourse refinancing or property sale proceeds where we have recovered our investment in those entities. If such an unconsolidated entity becomes consolidated, we will no longer recognize the receipt of cash in excess of our share of income from that entity as income.
Accounting for Inter-Segment Property Transfers. Prior to January 1, 2004, when a property was transferred from our Investment Division to our Homebuilding Division (such as in connection with a condominium conversion), we recorded in our segment results an intercompany sale at the estimated fair value of that property at the time of the sale, which could exceed the propertys carrying value at the time. The calculation of the cost of sales related to a subsequent sale of that property (or condominium units) by our Homebuilding Division would then be based on that estimated fair value. The same was true for a transfer of a property from our Homebuilding Division to our Investment Division, with the depreciation expense associated with the transferred property being based on the fair value at the time of transfer rather than the carrying value. Gains on transfers of assets between segments do not represent gains recognizable in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and, accordingly, are eliminated for purposes of consolidated reporting. Beginning with the first quarter of 2004, we began recording each inter-segment property transfer at the propertys carrying value. Nevertheless, since we still own a number of properties that were transferred prior to January 1, 2004, our segment results will continue to include depreciation expense and cost of homebuilding sales based on these intercompany transfers at the properties fair values for some future periods.
23
Percentage-of-Completion Revenue Recognition. The percentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition applies to mid-rise and high-rise condominium developments, where construction typically takes eighteen months or more, including our Las Olas River House project. Because this method of revenue recognition requires us to recognize revenues from sales of units prior to the closing of such sales, the timing of revenues generated by projects using the percentage-of-completion method may not be comparable to the timing of revenues generated by projects using the completed contract method. Furthermore, we will recognize a significant portion of the revenues from unit sales at a percentage-of completion-project prior to our receiving cash in respect of such unit sales. See Critical Accounting Policies and EstimatesRevenue Recognition.
Rental Properties in Lease-up. Rental properties that have not yet been stabilized typically have lower rental revenues and net operating income than rental properties that are stabilized. Trends in our results of operations may be masked or distorted in a period in which we have a number of properties in lease-up. However, once a property has been stabilized, the results for that property for a period in which it is stabilized will likely be markedly better than the results for that property during lease-up, which may also mask or distort trends in our results of operations. Where possible, when we make comparisons between periods, we segregate the results of properties that were in lease-up in either or both of the two periods to better illustrate the trends in our results of operations.
Consolidated Results of Operations
Results Overview
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, total consolidated revenue was $66.7 million and $127.2 million, more than double revenues reported for the corresponding periods in 2003 of $31.4 million and $55.6 million. These increases are mostly attributable to the increase in homebuilding sales, which, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, included sales at our Las Olas River House and Tuscany on the Intracoastal projects of $38.7 million and $67.2 million, while sales at our Pine Crest Village I and 5600 Collins Avenue projects were the most significant portion of our sales for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003. Homebuilding sales and gross profit have become more significant components of our results of operations as more of our for-sale projects have begun to close sales or are nearing completion. We expect this trend to continue as more of the projects in our pipeline, including our Hoboken projects, begin to generate revenue. See the tables that summarize homebuilding sales and present our backlog of homes sold, not closed, below under Homebuilding Division. The application of FIN 46R had no effect on comparability of homebuilding revenues for the two periods, since the projects generating homebuilding revenue prior to our adoption of FIN 46R were consolidated.
Rental revenue increased $4.3 million, or 21%, for the three month period and $8.2 million, or 20%, for the six month period ended June 30, 2004. As presented below under Operating Results of Consolidated Rental Properties, $3 million and $6.2 million of these increases resulted from the consolidation in January 2004 of four rental apartment communities as a result of our adoption of the provisions of FIN 46R. Rental apartment communities in lease-up during any of the periods presented contributed increases in rental revenue of $683,000 for the three month period and $1.5 million for the six month period.
Income from continuing operations was $14.6 million and $16.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, compared to losses from continuing operations of $5.1 million and $13.2 million for the corresponding periods in 2003. Gross profit from homebuilding sales was the most significant factor in these changes between periods. Additionally, equity in income of partnerships and joint ventures increased $5.8 million and $6.7 million during these periods chiefly because of distributions received from Ansonia
Apartments, L.P., in excess of our investment in this partnership in 2004. Additionally, as a result of the level of income generated in the second quarter of 2004, we have concluded that realization of our deferred tax asset is more likely than not. Accordingly, the valuation allowance in the amount of $5 million has been eliminated by a credit to income in the second quarter of 2004.
During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we recognized gains on sale of real estate totaling $3 million ($2.7 million in the second quarter), including those presented in discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS No. 144. During the corresponding period of 2003, gains on sale, including those presented in discontinued operations, were $10.4 million (all in the first quarter). During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we also sold our interest in Ninth Street Development, which has development rights for land in Hoboken, New Jersey, for $2.2 million and recognized a gain of $1.7 million.

Operating Results of Consolidated Rental Properties. At June 30, 2004, our consolidated apartment communities included 10,507 operating rental apartments, and our consolidated commercial properties had an aggregate 1.1 million square feet.

The most significant factor affecting equity in income <loss> of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures during the periods presented above was income from distributions in excess of investment, which increased $4.6 million and $5 million for the three and six month periods. As discussed above, this income relates to distributions from Ansonia Apartments, L.P., in excess of our share of its net income.
26
Increases in equity in income <loss> of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures of $823,000 and $1.5 million are due to the consolidation of four rental apartment communities held by variable interest entities pursuant to FIN 46R in 2004. These properties were in lease up in 2003 and reported net losses. Rental revenue of these properties was $2.1 million and $3.9 million for the three and six month periods in 2003. The consolidation of these properties also accounted for much of the decrease in property operating expenses, interest expense, and depreciation expense.
General and Administrative Expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses increased $675,000, or 21%, and $1.4 million, or 22%, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, compared to the corresponding periods of 2003 primarily due to homebuilding-related personnel additions and compensation increases. We have assembled a team dedicated to homebuilding to manage our pipeline of projects. Because of the long lead time for large projects in urban areas, we are just starting to recognize revenues from some of our earliest projects.
We have also added personnel in our property management group, which has resulted in an increase of $227,000, or 12%, for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the corresponding period of 2003 in property general and administrative expenses. Our property management team oversees the Investment Division properties and the initial lease-up of newly constructed rental apartment communities, provides our developers with real time market data, and provides property management services to rental apartment communities acquired for the purpose of converting them to condominiums. Property general and administrative expenses were slightly lower for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2003.
Sales of Consolidated Properties. We recognized a $2.7 million gain on the sale of a 128-unit rental apartment community in June 2004 and a $378,000 gain on the sale of a parcel of land in March 2004. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we sold three rental apartment communities with 333 units, a 25,323-square foot shopping center, and a portion of an office building and recognized gains totaling $10.4 million. All of the 2003 sales were in the first quarter. The number of properties sold and the gains on those sales vary from period to period based on market conditions and other factors, including the length of time we have held the properties. We plan to continue to opportunistically sell properties we own based upon market conditions.
Homebuilding Division
Results Overview
As stated previously, results for our segments do not distinguish between revenues of consolidated and unconsolidated properties. Therefore, revenue and gross profit <loss> from homebuilding sales presented in the Homebuilding Division Operating Statements include both consolidated and unconsolidated homebuilding projects.
The following table summarizes homebuilding sales in both units and revenues and gross profit both in dollars and as a percentage of sales. Units sold represent units closed except for Las Olas River House, where we have recorded sales revenue under the percentage-of-completion method. See Factors Affecting Comparability of Results of Operations Percentage-of-Completion Revenue Recognition.

(a) | Sales represent revenues recognized under the percentage of completion method. At June 30, 2004, sales under firm contracts were $152 million, and construction was 90% complete. Through December 31, 2003, this was an unconsolidated project. Beginning January 1, 2004, we began reporting Las Olas River House as a consolidated project in connection with the adoption of the provisions of FIN 46R. Gross profit reported in 2004 is before interest on advances from Tarragon, which is eliminated upon consolidation. |
Revenue from home sales was $42.1 million and $78.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, compared to $11.1 million and $14.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003. Most of the 2004 revenues relate to sales at Las Olas River House, a luxury, high-rise development in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and Tuscany on the Intracoastal, a property purchased for the purpose of conversion to condominiums in June 2003. We are recognizing revenues for Las Olas River House under the percentage-of-completion method. At June 30, 2004, the project was 90% complete, and 70% of the homes were subject to firm contracts, representing an aggregate contract value of $152 million. We recognize revenues for all of our other for-sale projects using the completed contract method. Gross profit net of selling expenses on home sales was 22% and 20% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, and 25% and 8% for the corresponding periods in 2003. Our lower gross profit for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 reflects our smaller number of projects at the time as well as the impact of the write-down of 5600 Collins. Net of minority interests in consolidated home sales and outside partners interests in home sales of unconsolidated projects, we reported $7.8 million and $13.2 million of gross profit from home sales for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, and $2.7 million $1.1 million for the corresponding periods in 2003.
28
Rental properties in the Homebuilding Division reported overall net losses from operations of $324,000 and $761,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, and $1.5 million and $2.8 million for the corresponding period in 2003. These losses are due to operating, interest, and depreciation expenses exceeding revenues during lease-up prior to stabilization. We transfer rental properties from the Homebuilding Division to the Investment Division once they are stabilized.
General and administrative expenses of the Homebuilding Division increased to $3.4 million and $6.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, from $2.9 million and $5.5 million for the corresponding periods in 2003. As stated previously, assembling the homebuilding team has driven the growth in overall general and administrative expenses.
As of June 30, 2004, as presented in the following table, our backlog of sales was $316 million for our 15 for-sale communities with active sales programs (see table below). Of this amount, we have recognized $137 million of revenues on sales of 202 homes under the percentage-of-completion revenue recognition method for Las Olas River House. We expect to begin closing sales at Las Olas River House during the third quarter of 2004. Because these sales have not yet been closed, they are presented as backlog in this table.

Investment Division
Results Overview
As stated previously, results for our segments do not distinguish between revenues of consolidated and unconsolidated properties. Therefore, rental revenue and net operating income in the following discussion include both consolidated and unconsolidated rental communities. You should read the following discussion along with the Investment Division operating statements and summary of Investment Division net operating income presented in Note 6. SEGMENT REPORTING in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Net operating income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of Investment Division net operating income to Investment Division net income <loss> is presented in the Investment Division operating statements in Note 6. SEGMENT REPORTING in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Investment Division reported net operating income of $16.9 million and $33.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, and $14.4 million and $29.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003. Net operating income as a percentage of rental revenue was 49.7% and 49.1% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, and 48.4% and 48.7% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003.
The following table presents net operating income for our 53 same store Investment Division apartment communities with 11,471 units and the seven apartment communities stabilized and moved to the Investment Division since the beginning of 2003. Prior to their stabilization, the operating results of these seven properties were included in the Homebuilding Division.

Net operating income for our 53 same store stabilized apartment communities increased $906,000 , or 7.63%, in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003 and increased $1.2 million, or 5.05%, in the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the corresponding period in 2003. These increases were mostly due to increases (4.55% and 4.13%, respectively) in rental revenues, which were partially offset by increases (1.57% and 3.22%, respectively) in property operating expenses. The ratio of net operating income to rental revenue for these properties increased 1.4% in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003 and increased 0.4% for the six month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to the corresponding period in 2003. Increased property operating expenses included personnel, landscaping, and other costs incurred in connection with leasing efforts in highly competitive rental markets.
The Investment Division reported a $2.7 million gain on the sale of one apartment community in June 2004 and recognized gains totaling $9.2 million in the first six months of 2003. In 2003, we sold three apartment communities, one shopping center, and a portion of an office building. The Investment Divisions gains on sale
30
of real estate were reduced by $1.3 million in 2003 for intercompany profit recognized previously by the Homebuilding Division upon the transfer of an office building to the Investment Division upon its stabilization.
Interest expense for the Investment Division increased by $148,000, or 2%, and $1 million, or 6%, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, compared to the corresponding periods in 2003. Increases of $1.1 million and $2 million were related to stabilized apartment communities transferred into the Investment Division. For the 53 same store stabilized apartment communities, interest expense increased $371,000, or 3%, for the six-month period due to additional debt from financings of these properties in 2003 and 2004. One commercial property contributed decreases of $638,000 and $712,000 due to costs incurred in paying off an existing mortgage in connection with a refinancing. Decreases of $171,000 and $430,000 came from the sale of Investment Division apartment communities during 2003.
Investment Division depreciation expense was $8 million and $15.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, compared to $8 million and $14.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003. The 53 same store stabilized apartment communities reported decreases in depreciation expense of $1.1 million and $1 million, primarily the result of resuming depreciation of two properties upon their reclassification from Real Estate Held for Sale to Real Estate Held for Investment in April 2003, including an adjustment to record depreciation for the period during which they were classified as Held for Sale. Increases of $1.2 million and $2.3 million were related to stabilized apartment communities transferred into the Investment Division. Decreases of $215,000 and $495,000 resulted from the sale of properties during 2003.
General and administrative expenses of the Investment Division increased to $1.5 million and $3.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, from $1.3 million and $2.9 million for the corresponding periods in 2003 mostly due to an increase in property general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of divisional revenues were 4.5% for both three month periods and 4.8% for both six months periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our principal sources of cash are home sales, rental operations of Investment Division properties, borrowings, and proceeds from the sale of Investment Division properties. As our Homebuilding Division continues to grow, home sales, along with project-related construction loans, will become our primary source of cash. We believe these sources will continue to meet our cash requirements, including debt service, property maintenance and improvements, acquisitions of land for development, development costs for rental apartment and for-sale communities under construction or renovation, projected purchases of existing properties, dividends on preferred stock, and repurchases of common stock under the announced buy back program. Although we expect these sources of cash to be sufficient to fund planned uses of cash, we can make no assurance that the expected home sales and Investment Division property sales and borrowings will be completed as planned.
Long-Term Debt
Unsecured Credit Facilities. We have a $20 million unsecured line of credit with affiliates of William S. Friedman, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors. Advances under the line of credit bear interest at the lower of 100 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR or the lowest rate offered in writing to us for an unsecured loan by an institutional lender. Payments of interest only are due on demand, but such demands may be made no more frequently than monthly. All outstanding principal and interest are due at maturity in January 2006. As of June 30, 2004, all of these funds are available to us.
31
We have a $5 million unsecured line of credit with Wachovia Bank. Payment terms are interest only monthly at 200 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR, with the outstanding balance due at maturity of July 2005.
Secured Credit Facilities. We have a $20.2 million revolving line of credit with SouthTrust Bank, an Alabama banking corporation. This loan bears interest at a floating rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus 175 basis points, and is payable monthly, with the principal amount maturing in June 2005. It is secured by five properties (one of which was added in July 2004) and shares of our common stock owned by Mr. Friedman and his affiliates. The fair market value of the common stock pledged as collateral is required at all times to be at least $12 million. If the value of the stock pledged as collateral drops below this threshold, we will have 10 days to pledge additional stock or pay down the loan such that the existing collateral meets the banks valuation requirements. We have agreed to indemnify Mr. Friedman and his affiliates from any loss, cost, or liability associated with their pledge of stock to secure this line of credit. As of June 30, 2004, there was $10.4 million available to us under this line of credit.
We currently have mortgage loans totaling $198.3 million (of which $25 million represents a revolving commitment), secured by a pool of eleven properties, under a secured credit facility with General Electric Capital Corporation that matures in May 2006. Two of the eleven properties were added to the portfolio after June 30, 2004, in connection with the refinancing of two recourse construction loans. See Construction Loans. The mortgage loans under this facility are cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other. We currently have outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate balance of $103.8 million that bear interest at 173 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR, payable monthly. If our ratio of net operating income of all of the properties in the pool to the total debt outstanding in the facility (the Cash on Cash Ratio) falls below 8% or our ratio of net operating income of the pool to the total debt service required under the facility (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) falls below 1.2x, the interest rate for these loans will be increased to 190 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR.
Under this facility, we also have mortgage loans with an aggregate balance of $94.5 million that currently bear interest at 190 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR and require monthly payments of principal and interest computed on a 271/2 -year amortization schedule. If our Cash on Cash Ratio for this sub-portfolio reaches 9%, the interest rate on these loans will be reduced to 173 basis points over the thirty-day LIBOR; if our Cash on Cash Ratio for this sub-portfolio reaches 9.75%, principal amortization will cease.
If the portfolio Cash on Cash Ratio does not reach 9.75% by August 2, 2004, payments on all of the loans will change to principal and interest computed on a 30-year amortization schedule beginning on September 1, 2004. Furthermore, if at any time during the term of the loans the portfolio Cash on Cash Ratio falls below 8.75%, we are required to pay the lender 100% of our net cash flow (after payment of property operating expenses, debt service, and impounds) from all of the properties in the portfolio in reduction of the principal balance of the loans until the portfolio Cash on Cash Ratio is again 8.75% or greater for two consecutive quarters. We are currently in discussions with the lender to maintain the current amortization terms.
This credit facility has two one-year extension options. The first extension option requires a Cash on Cash Ratio of 10% or greater and a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.25x or greater. The second extension option requires a Cash on Cash Ratio of 10.5% or greater and a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.3x or greater.
Non-recourse Mortgage Debt. As of June 30, 2004, in addition to the secured facilities, we had an aggregate of $214.1 million of outstanding non-recourse indebtedness secured by 33 Investment Division assets. The agreements governing this mortgage debt generally do not contain restrictive covenants and are not guaranteed by us or any of our subsidiaries or joint ventures. Of these mortgage loans, $179.1 million bear interest at various fixed rates, and $35 million bear interest at various floating rates. As of June 30, 2004, they bore interest at a weighted average rate of 5.9%.

Construction Loans. In connection with our various homebuilding projects, we obtain construction loans to finance the cost of construction. Generally, one of our subsidiaries or a joint venture will incur the construction loan, and we will guarantee the repayment of the construction loan and/or grant a completion guarantee with respect to the project. In general, we repay outstanding amounts under construction loans on for-sale communities with proceeds from home sales. We refinance construction loans on rental communities with permanent or semi-permanent mortgage financing open the completion and stabilization of the properties.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We have guaranteed an unconsolidated entitys $5 million land loan that matures in December 2004 and $900,000 of a self-amortizing mortgage that matures in July 2023 on an unconsolidated office building. Additionally, we have guaranteed two construction loans totaling $55 million, with an aggregate balance at June 30, 2004, of $23.7 million, of an unconsolidated joint venture. The construction loans mature in March and April 2005 and may be extended for one additional year.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
Our Board of Directors has authorized a common stock repurchase program. Since the beginning of 2001, we have repurchased almost 900,000 shares of our common stock because we believe the fair market value of our net assets per share is substantially greater than the market price of our common stock. We expect to repurchase fewer shares of our common stock during 2004 than we have in the past three years. During the first half of 2004, we repurchased 21,585 shares at a cost of $297,000. As of June 30, 2004, Tarragon had authority to repurchase an additional 832,717 common shares.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and our financial reporting process and are based on our current judgments. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to our consolidated financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ from our current judgments. The most significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements are as follows.
Asset Impairment. GAAP requires a property held for sale to be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. In instances where a propertys estimated fair value less costs to sell is less than its carrying value at the time of evaluation, we recognize a loss and write down the propertys carrying value to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. We recognize a gain for subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell, but not in excess of the cumulative loss previously recognized. Our review of properties held for sale generally includes selective site inspections, comparing the propertys current rents to market rents, reviewing the propertys expenses and maintenance requirements, discussions with the property manager, and a review of the surrounding area. We may make adjustments to estimated fair values based on future reviews.
We also evaluate our properties held for investment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a propertys carrying value may not be recoverable. This evaluation generally consists of reviewing the propertys cash flow and current and projected market conditions, as well as changes in general and local economic conditions. If we conclude that a property has been impaired, we
36
recognize an impairment loss and write down the propertys carrying value to estimated fair value.
Investments in Joint Ventures Accounted for Using the Equity Method. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46R. FIN 46R clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, for certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, or variable interest entities. Variable interest entities within the scope of FIN 46R are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is determined to be the party that absorbs a majority of the entitys expected losses, receives a majority of its expected returns, or both. We adopted the provisions of FIN 46R in the first quarter of 2004 and, as a result, consolidated seven variable interest entities.
We use the equity method to account for investments in partnerships and joint ventures over which we exercise significant influence but do not control or which are not variable interest entities of which we are the primary beneficiary. Under the equity method, our initial investments are increased by our proportionate share of the partnerships operating income and additional advances and decreased by our proportionate share of the partnerships operating losses and distributions received. Our interest in intercompany transactions is eliminated.
We determine our proportionate share of the profits or losses of the partnerships and joint ventures consistent with the allocation of cash distributions in accordance with the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 78-9, Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures.
We have investments in a number of partnerships or joint ventures in which we hold non-controlling interests or our outside partners have significant participating rights, as defined by the FASBs Emerging Issues Task Force in its 96-16 Abstract, or important rights, as defined by SOP 78-9 and which we have determined not to be variable interest entities, as defined by FIN 46R. The net effect of not consolidating these joint ventures has been to exclude their assets, liabilities, and gross revenues and expenses. There has been no effect on reported net income or loss except in instances where we have received distributions from a joint venture in excess of our investment in the joint venture, with the excess recorded as income. In these situations, we have recovered our investment in the joint venture; its indebtedness is non-recourse to us, and we have no obligation to fund any of its cash flow deficits.
Revenue Recognition. We have generally recognized revenue from homebuilding sales at the time of closing under the completed contract method. The related profit is recognized when collectibility of the sale price is reasonably assured and the earnings process is substantially complete. When a sale does not meet the requirements for income recognition, profit is deferred until such requirements are met. For mid-rise and high-rise condominium developments, where construction typically takes eighteen months or more, the percentage-of-completion method is employed. Under this method, once construction is beyond a preliminary stage, buyers are committed to the extent of being unable to require refunds except for non-delivery of the home, a substantial percentage of homes are under firm contracts, the sale prices are deemed collectible, and remaining costs and revenues can be reasonably estimated, revenue is recorded as a portion of the value of non-cancelable sale contracts. Revenue recognized is calculated based upon the percentage of construction costs incurred in relation to total estimated construction costs. Any amounts due under sale contracts, to the extent recognized as revenue, are recorded as contracts receivable.
Rental revenue is recognized on the straight-line method. Lease terms for our apartment communities are generally for one year or less. Lease terms for our commercial properties are generally from three to five years, although they may be shorter or longer. Rental concessions are deferred and amortized on the straight-line method over the lease terms as a reduction to rental revenue. We accrue percentage rentals only after the tenants sales have reached the threshold provided for in the lease.
Interest and management fee revenue are recognized when earned. Revenue from long term laundry and cable service contracts is deferred and amortized to income on the straight-line method over the terms of the contracts.
Gains on Sale of Real Estate. Gains on sales of real estate are recognized when and to the extent permitted by SFAS No. 66 Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. Until the requirements of SFAS No. 66 for full profit recognition have been met, transactions are accounted for using the deposit, installment, cost recovery, or financial method, whichever is appropriate.
37
Deferred Tax Assets. Our deferred tax assets represent expenses and losses that will offset future income tax liability. If we are unable to generate income tax liability resulting from future net income, the value of this tax asset would be impaired. We consider such factors as current trends and profit margins in determining projected net income, and projected net income is used to assess realizable value of the deferred tax asset.
Environmental Matters
Under federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations, Tarragon may be liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as other costs (such as fines or injuries to persons and property) where our employees may have arranged for removal, disposal, or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties can seek recovery from Tarragon for personal injury associated with those materials. We are not aware of any liability relating to these matters that would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, or results of operations. However, there is a matter involving the alleged release of asbestos-containing materials at one of our condominium conversion projects, as described in Part II, Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. As of this date, we are unable to determine the outcome of this matter and whether it will have a material impact on our financial statements. We have incurred legal and other professional fees and costs of relocating residents in connection with this matter totaling $326,000 to date. Remediation has been completed at a total cost of $800,000.
Risks Associated with Forward-Looking Statements Included in this Form 10-Q
In addition to historical information, this Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are expressions of our current beliefs and expectations, based on information currently available to us, estimates, and projections about our industry, and certain assumptions made by our management. These statements are not historical facts. We use words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates, and similar expressions to identify our forward-looking statements, which include, among other things, our anticipated financings and sales of properties and Homebuilding inventory.
Because we are unable to control or predict many of the factors that will determine our future performance and financial results, including future economic, competitive, and market conditions, our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They are subject to risks, uncertainties, and errors in assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. We believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. They only reflect our view and expectations as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement in light of new information, future events, or otherwise. Please read this discussion along with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included elsewhere in this report. Dollar amounts in tables are in thousands except for per unit or per share amounts.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Tarragon is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates that may adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. In seeking to minimize the risks from interest rate fluctuations, we manage such exposure through our regular operating and financing activities. We do not trade or speculate in financial instruments. There have been no material changes to Tarragons market risk since December 31, 2003.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Based on their most recent evaluation, which was completed as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2004, to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There were no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2004, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
38
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In April 2003, in connection with the condominium conversion of Pine Crest Village at Victoria Park, a contractor for Tarragon may have inadvertently disturbed asbestos-containing materials. Such actions are currently under investigation by the Environmental Protection Agency and may result in civil and/or criminal proceedings under applicable law. The extent of any resulting liability is unknown at this time. We have incurred legal and other professional fees and costs of relocating residents in connection with this matter totaling $326,000 to date. Remediation has been completed at a total cost of $800,000.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Tarragons Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1 million shares of its common stock under a share repurchase program implemented in September 2001. Through December 31, 2003, we had repurchased 645,698 shares of our common stock pursuant to this repurchase program. We did not repurchase shares of our common stock during the first three months of 2004. In March 2004, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 500,000 shares. The share repurchase program has no expiration date. The following table presents shares repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2004.
