NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
Unless the context otherwise indicates, references to we, us and our mean Boca Resorts, Inc., a company incorporated in Florida in 1996 and re-incorporated in Delaware in 1997.
The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements 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 generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the financial information furnished in this report reflects all material adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year primarily due to seasonal variations and because the three months ended September 30, 2004 include a loss on the early extinguishment of debt. See Note 6. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated.
2. Nature of Operations
We are an owner and operator of five distinctive destination resorts located in Florida with hotels, conference facilities, golf courses, spas, marinas and private clubs. We have focused on the luxury and upscale resort segment because we believe these segments outperform other lodging industry segments, particularly in times of economic downturn.
Our resorts include the Boca Raton Resort & Club (Boca Raton), the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay (Naples), the Edgewater Beach Hotel (Naples), the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina (Fort Lauderdale) and the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center (Fort Lauderdale). We also own and operate two golf clubs located in Florida (Grande Oaks Golf Club in Fort Lauderdale and Naples Grande Golf Club in Naples) that serve as additional amenities to our resorts, as well as components of our exclusive social club, known as the Premier Club. In addition, we own and operate two golf courses in Boca Raton that are part of the Boca Raton Resort & Club.
3. Loss Per Common Share
Loss per share equals net loss divided by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding. Options to purchase shares of common stock totaling 6.5 million and 6.8 million were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, but were not included in the computation of loss per share because the effect would be antidilutive.
4. Stock Option Plan
We grant stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. We account for the options granted under the intrinsic value method, which follows the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principals Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, except for certain non-cash compensation expenses associated with the modification in terms of stock option awards, which totaled $453,000 (or $279,000 net of benefit for income taxes) during the three months ended September 30, 2003. The following table summarizes the effect of accounting for stock option awards as if the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of

6. Loss on Early Retirement of Debt
In July 2004 we closed on a new $325.0 million senior credit facility. The senior credit facility consists of a term loan in the principal amount of $200.0 million, which matures in July 2009 and a revolving credit facility in the principal amount of $125.0 million, which expires in July 2007. The interest rate on the new facility is tied to consolidated leverage ratios, but generally ranges from LIBOR plus 225 basis points to 250 basis points on the term loan and from LIBOR plus 175 basis points to 250 basis points on the revolver. The proceeds of the term loan were used in August 2004 to redeem in full our outstanding $190.1 million principal amount of senior subordinated notes payable. As a result, we recorded a loss on the early retirement of debt during the quarter ending September 30, 2004 of approximately $13.1 million, which includes a $9.4 million premium paid to redeem the notes, together with the write-off of $3.7 million in debt issuance costs previously capitalized in connection with the issuance of the notes.

7. Subsequent Event
We entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 20, 2004 (the Merger Agreement), with Baton Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (Parent), and Baton Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (Merger Sub), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into us (the Merger), and we will continue as the surviving corporation. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of The Blackstone Group. As a result of the Merger, we will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of our Class A common stock, par value $.01 per share, and each outstanding share of our Class B common stock, par value $.01 per share (collectively, the Shares), other than any Shares owned by us, Merger Sub, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or of us, or by any stockholders who are entitled to and who properly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law, shall be canceled and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive $24.00 in cash, without interest.
The Merger is conditioned, among other things, on the adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders and the termination or expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.
Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, H. Wayne Huizenga, the Chairman of our Board of Directors and our Chief Executive Officer and Huizenga Investments Limited Partnership (HILP), a Nevada limited partnership controlled by Mr. Huizenga, entered into a Voting Agreement (the Voting Agreement) with Parent. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, Mr. Huizenga has agreed to vote his shares of Class B common stock, which represent approximately 98% of our voting power, in favor of the Merger and against any proposal or action that could reasonably be expected to interfere with the Merger.
We may terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, including prior to the adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders if our board of directors determines in good faith, in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, that it has received an unsolicited bona fide superior proposal, as defined in the Merger Agreement, and otherwise complies with certain terms of the Merger Agreement (including giving Parent the opportunity to make an offer that is at least as favorable to our stockholders as such superior proposal). In connection with such termination we must pay a fee of $38 million to Parent. The Voting Agreement will terminate upon any termination of the Merger Agreement. In certain other circumstances the Merger Agreement provides for Parent or us to pay to the other party a fee of $38 million upon termination of the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement (the Agreements) do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Agreements, which are filed as exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 21, 2004 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This report may not contain all the information that is important to you and should be read together with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004, including the disclosure relating to critical accounting policies in Managements Discussion and Analysis. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has requested that all registrants list their most critical accounting policies in MD&A. The SEC indicated that a critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and requires managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Overview
We are an owner and operator of five distinctive destination resorts located in Florida with hotels, conference facilities, golf courses, spas, marinas and private clubs. We have focused on the luxury and upscale resort segment because we believe these segments outperform other lodging industry segments, particularly in times of economic downturn.
Our resorts include the Boca Raton Resort & Club (Boca Raton), the Registry Resort at Pelican Bay (Naples), the Edgewater Beach Hotel (Naples), the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Hotel and Marina (Fort Lauderdale) and the Radisson Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center (Fort Lauderdale). We also own and operate two golf clubs located in Florida (Grande Oaks Golf Club in Fort Lauderdale and Naples Grande Golf Club in Naples) that serve as additional amenities to our resorts, as well as, components of our exclusive social club, known as the Premier Club. In addition, we own and operate two golf courses in Boca Raton that are part of the Boca Raton Resort & Club.
Our resorts possess considerable competitive and operational strengths. They are unique, irreplaceable assets in desirable waterfront locations with strong name recognition and positioning in their respective markets. We believe it would be difficult for potential competitors to replicate our resorts and, therefore, we benefit from high barriers to entry. Our resorts provide us with multiple, diverse revenue streams and primarily attract corporate groups and affluent leisure customers. We further believe that each of our properties is well positioned to maintain or increase market share. We historically increased revenue and cash flow in large part through the development of additional guestrooms and resort amenities at our existing properties and believe there are additional opportunities for development initiatives to our portfolio in the future.
Business Philosophy
Our objective is to enhance shareholder value principally through improvements in earnings, cash flow and the quality of our resorts. While management continuously evaluates ownership, acquisition and divestiture alternatives, we continue to pursue internal expansion and development opportunities at our existing properties. See Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which discusses the merger agreement we entered into on October 20, 2004.
Seasonality
The resort operations are generally seasonal. The resorts historically experience greater revenue, costs and income in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year ended June 30 due to increased occupancy and room rates during the winter and spring months. Historically, approximately 16%, 23%, 36% and 25% of annual revenue has been derived during the first, second, third and fourth fiscal quarters, respectively.
Hurricanes
We face a variety of risks relating to travel including disruption caused by natural disaster such as hurricanes, which are common to South Florida. During the three months ended September 30, 2004 Hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne interrupted our business. While we experienced only
8
minor landscaping damage and clean up efforts, we were required to evacuate certain of our resorts as the storms approached landfall, which adversely affected our results of operations.

We derive all significant revenue from a single line of business, hotel and resort real estate ownership, which we characterize as leisure and recreation revenue. Corporate expenses have been segregated in the preceding table and in the accompanying discussion because they largely relate to public company compliance costs and corporate governance expenses.

Leisure and Recreation Revenue
We generate a diversified stream of revenue. Leisure and recreation revenue totaled $48.8 million and $47.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Non-room revenue, which represented over 60% of leisure and recreation revenue for each period presented, was derived from sources such as food and beverage sales, yachting and marina revenue, spa revenue, golf revenue, Premier Club membership fees and dues, retail sales and other resort amenities.
9
The $1.8 million increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2003, resulted from increases in occupancy at each of our properties (contributing $650,000 of the increase to revenue), increases to average daily rate (contributing $484,000 of the increase to revenue), as well as increased revenue derived from non-room sources such as food and beverage revenue, yachting and marina revenue, and spa revenue (contributing $671,000 of the increase to revenue). We believe increases in resort occupancy and rate are largely the result of an improving economic landscape, significant property enhancements, the high quality of our assets, our commitment to quality customer service resulting in strong guest loyalty and a favorable market mix that combines high-end leisure travelers and corporate groups.
Leisure and Recreation Operating Expenses
Cost of leisure and recreation services totaled $27.2 million, or 56% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to cost of leisure and recreation services of $26.6 million, or 57% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2003. Cost of leisure and recreation services primarily consisted of direct costs to service rooms, marinas, food and beverage operations, retail establishments, spas and other amenities at the resorts.
Leisure and recreation selling, general and administrative expenses (S,G&A) totaled $18.8 million, or 39% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to S,G&A of $18.9 million, or 40% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2003. Leisure and recreation S,G&A primarily consisted of utility and property maintenance costs, real estate taxes, property and casualty insurance, franchise agreement fees, sales and marketing expenses and administrative salaries and expenses.
Leisure and recreation depreciation expense totaled $9.2 million and $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2003, was primarily because certain furniture, furnishings and equipment, which was assigned a seven year estimated life (upon acquisition of certain resorts), became fully depreciated during the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses and Corporate Depreciation Expense
Corporate general and administrative expenses totaled $1.7 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, corporate general and administrative expenses included certain non-cash compensation expenses associated with the modification in terms of stock option awards, which totaled $453,000.
Corporate depreciation expense totaled $53,000 for both the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and represents depreciation on corporate furniture and equipment.
Loss on Early Retirement of Debt
In July 2004 we closed on a new $325.0 million senior credit facility. The senior credit facility consists of a term loan in the principal amount of $200.0 million, which matures in July 2009 and a revolving credit facility in the principal amount of $125.0 million, which expires in July 2007. The proceeds of the term loan were used in August 2004 to redeem in full our outstanding $190.1 million principal amount of senior subordinated notes payable. As a result, we recorded a loss on the early retirement of debt during the quarter ending September 30, 2004 of approximately $13.1 million, which includes a $9.4 million premium paid to redeem the notes, together with the write-off of $3.7 million in debt issuance costs previously capitalized in connection with the issuance of the notes.

Interest expense totaled $4.2 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was primarily because we retired our outstanding 9.875% senior subordinated notes on August 27, 2004 following the completion of a lower-cost financing. See Note 6.
Benefit for Income Taxes
We recorded a benefit for income taxes totaling $9.7 million, or 38.5% of pretax loss, and $6.0 million, or 38.5% of pretax loss, for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Net Loss
Net loss totaled $15.5 million and $9.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Leisure and recreation revenue and gross margins increased following gains in occupancy and average daily rate despite disruption caused by Hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne. However, the improvement in operating results derived from core operations was more than offset by a $13.1 million loss on the early retirement of debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents decreased to $42.4 million at September 30, 2004, from $47.6 million at June 30, 2004. The major components of the change are discussed below.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.9 million and $13.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2003, was primarily because we retired our outstanding senior subordinated notes payable in August 2004 and paid accrued interest totaling $6.9 million associated with such notes. Interest on the notes would have otherwise been paid on October 15 (interest on the notes was paid semi-annually on October 15 and April 15).
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $5.7 million and $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and primarily relate to capital expenditures.
During the three months ended September 30, 2003 capital expenditures included the final stages of a marina renovation at the Bahia Mar Resort and Yachting Center. This extensive marina renovation, which was funded substantially from operations, results in a state-of-the art yachting center with 245 reconfigured boat slips, sized to accommodate larger yachts ranging from 80 feet to over 200 feet, without reducing the rentable linear feet. We were also working on a number of smaller initiatives during the three-month period including the renovation of the pool area at the Boca Raton Resort & Club and new themed restaurants at Pier 66 Resort and Marina and at Registry Resort.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $2.4 million and $2.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Financing activities for the periods primarily includes borrowings, net of repayments, under credit agreements, proceeds from the exercise of stock options, as well as costs paid in connection with the origination and extinguishment of debt.

Capital Resources
Our capital resources are provided from both internal and external sources. The primary capital resources from internal sources include (1) room rentals, food and beverage sales, retail sales, spa revenue, golf revenue, tennis revenue, marina revenue and conference service revenue at our resorts and (2) Premier Club membership revenue, net of related costs. The primary external sources of liquidity have been the issuance of debt securities, borrowing under term loans and credit lines, the issuance of our stock for property acquisitions and the exercise of non-qualified stock options by employees pursuant to our stock option plan.
In July 2004 we closed on a new $325.0 million senior credit facility. The senior credit facility consists of a term loan in the principal amount of $200.0 million, which matures in July 2009 and a revolving credit facility in the principal amount of $125.0 million, which expires in July 2007. The proceeds of the term loan were used in August 2004 to redeem in full our outstanding $190.1 million principal amount of senior subordinated notes payable. As a result, we recorded a loss on the early retirement of debt during the quarter ending September 30, 2004 of approximately $13.1 million, which includes a $9.4 million premium paid to redeem the notes, together with the write-off of $3.7 million in debt issuance costs previously capitalized in connection with the issuance of the notes. The $125.0 million revolving credit facility replaces our previous revolver, which was scheduled to mature in June 2005. We have no borrowings under the new revolving credit facility. As a result of our cash on hand, our availability under the new revolving credit facility and expected cash from operations over the ensuing year, we believe we have sufficient funds to continue our capital maintenance and expansion plans and support on-going operations, including meeting debt service obligations as they come due.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined by the SEC, include certain transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements pursuant to which a company has any obligation under certain guarantee contracts, certain retained or contingent interests in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity, any obligation under certain derivative investments, or any obligation under a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us. We generally do not enter into off-balance sheet arrangements, other than those described in our Annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 relating to operating leases and commitments outstanding for capital expenditures under purchase orders and contracts. There has been no material change in our off-balance sheet arrangements from June 30, 2004.
Contractual Obligations
There has been no material change in our contractual obligations under operating leases from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004. We are also obligated to make future payments under our new senior credit facility. The following table sets forth our contractual debt obligations as of September 30, 2004 (000 omitted):

Financial Condition
Significant changes in balance sheet data from June 30, 2004 to September 30, 2004 are discussed below.

Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased to $26.5 million at September 30, 2004, from $30.7 million at June 30, 2004. The decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses was primarily the result of a $3.9 million decrease in accrued interest on our senior subordinated notes. At September 30, 2004, there was no accrual for interest on the notes since they were fully redeemed in August 2004. At June 30, 2004, the accrual for interest totaled $3.9 million (and represented interest for 76 days on $190.1 million outstanding notes).
Current Portion of Deferred Revenue and Advance Deposits
Current portion of deferred revenue and advance deposits increased to $33.8 million at September 30, 2004, from $26.1 million at June 30, 2004. The increase substantially related to the receipt of annual Premier Club dues at the Boca Raton Resort & Club. We bill such annual Premier Club dues in August of each year. The annual dues are being recognized as revenue ratably over the membership year, which commenced on October 1.
Working Capital
Current assets exceeded current liabilities by $17.9 million and $27.6 million at September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively. The decrease in working capital is primarily because we collected annual Premier Club dues associated with the Boca Raton Resort & Club and such dues are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as September 30, 2004. Deferred revenue will be relieved (and revenue recognized) ratably over the membership year, which commenced on October 1.
Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the information in this report contains forward-looking statements. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, expect, anticipate, estimate, continue or other similar words. These statements discuss future expectations (including those related to the expected completion and timing of the merger and other information relating to the merger), contain projections of results of operations or of financial position or state other forward-looking information. When considering such forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements in this report. The risk factors include certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
These risk factors include, among others, risks relating to travel; risks associated with construction and development at our properties; competition in our principal business; the availability of financing on terms suitable to us and our dependence on key personnel. Risks relating to travel include a change in travel patterns resulting from slowing economic conditions and geopolitical conditions, as well as changes in corporate policies relating to group meetings and air or other travel disruption.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to a number of financial market risks in the ordinary course of business. Our primary financial market risk exposure pertains to changes in interest rates. We have examined exposures to these risks and concluded that none of the exposures are material to cash flows or earnings. As of September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, we have no financial instruments in place to manage the impact of changes in interest rates. However, under the terms of our $325.0 million senior credit facility we are obligated to purchase interest rate caps or fixed rate swaps on the amount of our indebtedness that accrues interest at a variable rate in excess of $250.0 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2004, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chairman of the board (our principal executive officer) and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic filings with SEC is effectively recorded, processed and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based on the foregoing, our chairman of the board and chief financial officer concluded as of September 30, 2004 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to our company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. Additionally, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date we completed our evaluation.
