Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The Company operates Saddlebrook Resort (the “Resort”) in Wesley Chapel, Florida, which contains condominium units that have been sold to third parties or to affiliates of the Company. The majority of the condominium units are hotel accommodations that participate in a rental-pooling program (the “Rental Pool”) that provides its owners with a percentage distribution of related room revenues minus certain fees and expenses. The remainder of the condominium units either participate in a non-pooling rental program, are owner-occupied or are designated as hospitality suites or housing for young athletes independent of the rental programs. Other resort property owned by the Company and its affiliates include golf courses, tennis courts, a spa, restaurants and conference center facilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s operations are seasonal with the highest volume of sales generally occurring in the first quarter of each calendar year. The third quarter has historically produced the lowest volume of sales. Consequently, the Company’s financial condition declined during the third quarter of 2003. However, due to the earlier seasonal period, the Company’s financial condition at September 30, 2003 approximates its financial condition at its fiscal year-end of December 31, 2002. The primary effect of this period was a slight increase in accumulated earnings.

The Company’s financing from a third-party lender has a fixed annual interest rate of 7.7%, monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $244,000 and matures on June 30, 2013. The current debt agreement contains additional financing from the same lender of $5,000,000 provided the Company is in compliance with certain financial covenants. For the debt’s reporting period ended June 30, 2003, the Company was not in compliance with the financial covenants related to this additional financing. However, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants related to its existing debt.

There were no significant capital additions or improvements during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the Company’s management has no major capital projects anticipated in the immediate future. Future operating costs and planned expenditures for minor capital additions and improvements are expected to be adequately funded by the Company’s and its affiliates’ current cash reserves and cash generated by resort operations.

Regarding the Company’s operation of the Rental Pool, the related condominium units’ kitchens, bathrooms and carpeting are currently being renovated and upgraded. This project commenced in 1998 and has been completed for unit Clusters One through Ten with an aggregate billing to the maintenance escrow fund of $6,071,000. The project is currently underway in the Resort’s Lakeside Village units and the Company’s management expects the related billing to the condominium owners’ maintenance escrow fund accounts to occur in 2004. Additionally, the Company’s management will commence a project to replace and upgrade unit furniture packages in early 2004.

Results of Operations

Third quarter 2003 compared to third quarter 2002

The Company’s total revenues decreased approximately $16,000, or less than 1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total revenues for the Rental Pool decreased approximately $184,000, or 14%, from the same

-12-

Table of Contents

period in the prior year. These reductions were primarily due to a 23% decrease in the number of paid room nights, partially offset by an 8% increase in the average daily room rate for the condominium units that participated in the Rental Pool. Paid room nights decreased 25% for the Resort’s group business and 22% for social hotel stays. The Company’s total resort revenues were also affected by decreased sales in its food and beverage and other areas of operations that resulted from a 10% decrease in the number of individual guests that stayed at the Resort for the current quarter when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Although comparable to the prior year, the above revenues for 2003 are lower than previous years due to the slowdown in the nation’s economy and concerns about national security that have adversely affected travel. Regarding the projection of future revenues, these negative events have created a trend in the booking of resort business where reservations for both group and social guests are now generally occurring closer to their arrival dates instead of several months in advance as in previous years. Although this trend makes it difficult to project future business, the Company’s management believes the occupied room nights for the remainder of the year 2003 will approximate the prior year’s level. Similarly, projections for occupied room nights in the year 2004 and subsequent fiscal periods are expected to remain at the resort’s current volume of business pending an improvement in the nation’s economy and less concern about national security.

A net loss for the third quarter of 2003 decreased approximately $220,000, which was an 11% improvement from the net loss for the third quarter of 2002. This was primarily a result of reductions in various operating and administrative expenses, partially offset by slightly higher marketing costs. Depreciation and amortization expense were effectively unchanged for the current period when compared to the prior year’s third quarter. Interest expense decreased approximately 6% as the Company continued to pay down its self-amortizing debt discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above.

First nine months 2003 compared to first nine months 2002

The Company’s total revenues decreased approximately $1,228,000 or 4% for the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total revenues for the Rental Pool decreased approximately $924,000, or 10%, from the same period in the prior year. These reductions were primarily due to a 1% decrease in the average daily room rate and a 9% decrease in the number of paid room nights for the condominium units that participated in the Rental Pool during the nine–month period. Paid room nights decreased 9% for the Resort’s group business and 8% for social hotel stays. The Company’s total resort revenues also reflected sales in its food and beverage and most other areas of operations that resulted from a 3% increase in the number of individual guests that stayed at the Resort for the period when compared to the first nine months of 2002.

The Company’s net income for the current period decreased $673,000, which was a 52% reduction from the net income for the first nine months of 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of lower revenues and increases in various marketing and administrative costs. Depreciation and amortization expense were effectively unchanged for the current period when compared to the prior year’s. Interest expense decreased approximately 6% as the Company continued to pay down its self-amortizing debt discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above.

Due to the seasonal business of the Company, the results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s invested cash, including investments escrowed on behalf of the condominium unit owners in the Rental Pool’s Maintenance Escrow Fund, are subject to changes in market interest rates. Consequently, the related yields for these investments continue to have a downward trend. Otherwise, the Company does not have significant market risk with respect to foreign currency exchanges or other market rates.

The Company’s debt is self-amortizing and has a fixed contractual interest rate through June of 2013. Accordingly, fluctuations in related market costs of capital are not expected to affect its financial results.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2003, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2003, in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, insurance or indemnification from other third parties adequately covers these matters. Accordingly, the effect, if any, of these claims is considered immaterial to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
