NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

INREIT Real Estate Investment Trust (“INREIT”) is a registered, but unincorporated business trust organized in North Dakota in November 2002. INREIT has elected to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code, which requires that 75% of the assets of a REIT must consist of real estate assets and that 75% of its gross income must be derived from real estate. The net income of the REIT is allocated in accordance with the stock ownership in the same fashion as a regular corporation.

INREIT previously established an operating partnership (INREIT Properties, LLLP) and transferred all of its assets and liabilities to the operating partnership in exchange for general partnership units. The general partner has management responsibility for all activities of the operating partnership. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, INREIT owned approximately 25.8% and 25.7%, respectively, of the operating partnership. The operating partnership is the 100% owner of Grand Forks INREIT, LLC, Autumn Ridge INREIT, LLC, Bismarck Interstate INREIT, LLC, 32nd Avenue INREIT, LLC, INREIT BL Mankato, LLC, INREIT BL Janesville, LLC, INREIT BL Eau Claire, LLC, INREIT BL Stevens Point, LLC, INREIT BL Sheboygan, LLC, INREIT BL Oshkosh, LLC, INREIT BL Onalaska, LLC, INREIT BL Grand Forks, LLC, INREIT BL Marquette, LLC, INREIT BL Bismarck, LLC, INREIT Stonybrook, LLC, INREIT Alexandria, LLC, INREIT Batesville, LLC, INREIT Fayetteville, LLC, INREIT Laurel, LLC, INREIT Somerset, LLC, Sierra Ridge, LLC, INREIT Maple Ridge, LLC, INREIT Fed-3 LLC, the 81.25% owner of Eagle Run Partnership, LLLP, the 50% owner of Marketplace Investors, LLC and the 40.26% interest in Highland Meadows, LLLP.

NOTE 2 - PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010, which have previously been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted from this report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011 and consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, as applicable, have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2011 and our consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and our consolidated cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, as applicable. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Principles of Consolidation

LLC; Sierra Ridge, LLC; INREIT Maple Ridge, LLC; INREIT FED-3, LLC; and Marketplace Investors, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Additionally, we evaluate the need to consolidate affiliates based on standards set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In determining whether we have a controlling interest in an affiliate and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the limited partners and shareholders as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which we are the primary beneficiary.

Tenant in Common Interest

We own two properties through a tenant in common interest with unaffiliated third parties. For such properties, the approval of the other party is not required to finance, develop, sell, or operate the property. We proportionally consolidate our ownership interest in the property, which reflects our proportional share of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses of those properties in our consolidated financial statements.

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investment in unconsolidated affiliates as of September 30, 2011 consists of our 40.26% interest in Highland Meadows, LLLP, owner of one 144 unit residential, multi-tenant apartment complex in Bismarck, North Dakota. Consolidation of this investment is not required as the entity does not qualify as a variable interest entity and does not meet the control requirements for consolidation, as defined in ASC 810. We and the respective affiliate partners must approve significant decisions about the applicable entity’s activities. As of September 30, 2011, the unconsolidated affiliate held total assets of $3.2 million and mortgage notes payable of $2.6 million.

We account for unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method of accounting per guidance established under ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). The equity method of accounting requires the investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our share of equity in the affiliates’ earnings and distributions. We evaluate the carrying amount of the investments for impairment in accordance with ASC 323. Unconsolidated affiliates are reviewed for potential impairment if the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. An impairment charge is recorded when an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To determine whether impairment is other-than-temporary, we consider whether we have the ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying amount is fully recovered. The evaluation of an investment in an affiliate for potential impairment can require our management to exercise significant judgments. No impairment losses were recorded related to the unconsolidated affiliate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Our cash balances are maintained in various bank deposit accounts. The bank deposit amounts in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits at various times throughout the year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Property and Equipment

We account for our property acquisitions by allocating the purchase price of a property to the property’s assets based on management’s estimates of their fair value. Techniques used to estimate fair value include appraisals of the properties by a certified independent appraiser at the time of acquisition.

 

(Continued on next page)    13

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

 

Equipment, furniture and fixtures purchased are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All costs associated with the development and construction of real estate investments, including acquisition fees and interest, are capitalized as a cost of the property. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs, which do not add to the value or extend useful lives, are charged to expense as incurred.

Depreciation is provided for over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Buildings and improvements

     40 years   

Furniture and fixtures

     9 years   

Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 totaled $6,607,536 and $6,170,447 respectively.

Annually, we evaluate our real estate investments for significant operational changes to assess whether any impairment indications are present, including recurring operating losses or significant adverse changes in legal factors or business climate that affect the recovery of the recorded value. If any real estate investment is considered impaired, a loss is provided to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We classify highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents.

Receivables

Receivables consist primarily of amounts due for rent and real estate taxes. The receivables are non-interest bearing. The carrying amount of receivables is reduced by an amount that reflects management’s best estimates of the amounts that will not be collected. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, management determined that no allowance was necessary for uncollectible receivables.

Other assets

Lease intangibles represent a proportional purchase price allocation of a property acquisition. The lease intangibles represent the estimated value of in-place leases and above-market lease terms. Intangible assets are comprised of finite-lived and indefinite-lived assets. Indefinite-lived assets are not amortized. Finite-lived intangibles are amortized over their expected useful lives.

Other intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite useful life are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The carrying amount of intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite useful life is regularly reviewed for indicators of impairments in value. Impairment is recognized only if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is considered to be unrecoverable from its undiscounted cash flows and is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value of the asset. Based on the review, management determined that impairment was unnecessary at September 30, 2011 or September 30, 2010.

Rental Incentives

Rental incentives consist of up-front cash payments to lessees to sign the lease. Rental incentives are amortized against rental income over the term of the lease.

Noncontrolling Interest

Interests in the operating partnership held by limited partners are represented by operating partnership units. The operating partnerships’ income is allocated to holders of units based upon the ratio of their holdings to the total units outstanding during the period. Capital contributions, distributions, syndication costs, and profits and losses are allocated to noncontrolling interests in accordance with the terms of the operating partnership agreement.

Financing Costs

Financing costs incurred in connection with financing have been capitalized and are being amortized over the life of the financing using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method.

Syndication Costs

Syndication costs consist of costs paid to attorneys, accountants, and selling agents, related to the raising of capital. These fees are paid based on management’s discretion. Syndication costs are recorded as a reduction to equity and noncontrolling interest.

Federal Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code (“REIT”). A REIT calculates taxable income similar to other domestic corporations, with the major difference being that a REIT is entitled to a deduction for dividends paid. A REIT is generally required to distribute each year at least 90% of its taxable income. If it chooses to retain the remaining 10% of taxable income, it may do so, but it will be subject to a corporate tax on such income. REIT shareholders are taxed on REIT distributions of ordinary income in the same manner as they are taxed on other corporate distributions.

We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT and, as such, will not be taxed on the portion of the income that is distributed to the shareholders. In addition, we intend to distribute all of our taxable income; therefore, no provisions or liabilities for income taxes have been recorded in the financial statements.

The operating partnership is organized as a limited partnership. Income or loss is allocated to the partners in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code 704(b) and 704(c). UPREIT status allows non-recognition of gain by an owner of appreciated real estate if that owner contributes the real estate to a partnership in exchange for partnership interest. The conversion of partnership interest to shares of beneficial interest in the REIT will be a taxable event to the limited partner.

We have adopted the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic ASC 740-10, on January 1, 2009. The implementation of this standard had no impact on the financial statements. As of both the date of adoption and as of September 30, 2011, the unrecognized tax benefit accrual was zero. We are no longer subject to Federal and State tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. Effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011, ASU No. 2011-04 clarifies how a principal market is determined, addresses the fair value measurement of instruments with offsetting market or counterparty credit risks and the concept of valuation premise and highest and best use, extends the prohibition on blockage factors to all three levels of the fair value hierarchy, and requires additional disclosures. ASU No. 2011-04 will only apply to our disclosures in Note 8 related to fair value assets and liabilities and is not expected to have a significant impact on our footnote disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

Generally, housing units are rented under short-term lease agreements. Generally, commercial space is rented under long-term lease agreements.

We derive over 95% of our revenues from tenant rents and other tenant-related activities. Commercial tenant rents include base rents, expense reimbursements (such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and utilities), and straight-line rents. We record base rents on a straight-line basis, which means that the monthly base rent income according to the terms of our leases with tenants is adjusted so that an average monthly rent is recorded for each tenant over the term of its lease. The straight-line rent adjustment increased revenue by $183,231 and $400,375 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The straight-line receivable balance included in receivables on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $1,593,294 and $1,410,063, respectively. We receive payments for these reimbursements from substantially all our multi-tenant commercial tenants throughout the year based on estimates. Differences between estimated recoveries and the final billed amounts, which are immaterial, are recognized in the subsequent year.

Segment Information

We assess and measure operating results on an individual property basis for each of our investment properties based on property net operating income. However, management internally evaluates the operating performance of the properties as a whole and does not differentiate properties by geography, size or type. In accordance with existing guidance, under the aggregation criteria of this guidance, our properties are considered one reportable segment.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (the “numerator”) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the “denominator”) during the period. INREIT had no dilutive potential common shares as of September 30, 2011 or 2010, and therefore, basic earnings per common share were equal to diluted earnings per common share for both periods.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, INREIT’s denominators for the basic and diluted earnings per common share were approximately 3,761,159 and 3,099,171 shares, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts previously reported in our 2010 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2011 presentation.

During the first nine months of 2011, we received insurance proceeds in the amount of $491,676 for damages caused by a wind storm. The proceeds will be used in 2011 to repair damages to the buildings.

During the first nine months of 2010, we received insurance proceeds in the amount of $414,463 for damages caused by a storm on twenty properties. We reduced the book value of the property and equipment by $375,563 and recorded income in the amount of $38,900.

NOTE 4 - HEDGING ACTIVITIES

As part of our interest rate risk management strategy, we use a derivative instrument to minimize significant unanticipated earnings fluctuations that may arise from rising variable interest rate costs associated with existing borrowings. To meet these objectives, we have entered into interest rate swaps in the amount of $1,293,900 and $2,429,044 to provide a fixed rate of 7.25% and 2.57%, respectively. The swaps mature on April 15, 2020 and December 2017, respectively. The swaps were issued at approximate market terms and thus no fair value adjustment was recorded at inception. The carrying amount of the swaps have been adjusted to their fair values at the end of the quarter, which because of changes in forecasted levels of LIBOR resulted in reporting a liability for the fair value of the future net payments forecasted under the swaps. The interest rate swaps are accounted for as effective hedges in accordance with ASC 815-20 whereby they are recorded at fair value and changes in fair value are recorded to comprehensive income. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we have recorded a liability and other comprehensive loss of $440,675 and $194,499, respectively.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

FASB issued ASC 820-10 in September 2006 and ASC 825-10 in February 2007. Both standards address the aspects of the expanding application of fair value accounting. Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted ASC 820-10 and ASC 825-10. There were no adjustments to accumulated deficit as a result of the adoption of ASC 820-10. ASC 825-10 permits a company to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value that were not previously required to be measured at fair value. We have elected not to measure any financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value which were not previously required to be measured at fair value.

ASC 820-10 established a three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurement. Management uses these valuation techniques to establish the fair value of the assets at the measurement date. These valuation techniques are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

 

   

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

   

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose significant inputs are observable;

 

   

Level 3 – Instruments whose significant inputs are unobservable.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC 820-10:

Limited partners in the operating partnership have the right to require the operating partnership to redeem their limited partnership units for cash after a minimum three-year holding period. Upon such a redemption request, INREIT has the right to purchase the limited partnership units either with cash or INREIT common shares, in its discretion, on the basis of one limited partnership unit for one INREIT common share. However, payment will be in cash if the issuance of INREIT common shares will cause the shareholder to exceed the ownership limitations, among other reasons. No limited partner will be permitted more than two redemptions during any calendar year, and no redemptions may be made for less than 1,000 limited partnership units or, if such limited partner owns less than 1,000 limited partnership units, all of the limited partnership units held by such limited partner.

NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Environmental Matters

Federal law (and the laws of some states in which we may acquire properties) imposes liability on a landowner for the presence on the premises of hazardous substances or wastes (as defined by present and future federal and state laws and regulations). This liability is without regard to fault or knowledge of the presence of such substances and may be imposed jointly and severally upon all succeeding landowners. If such hazardous substance is discovered on a property acquired by us, we could incur liability for the removal of the substances and the cleanup of the property. There can be no assurance that we would have effective remedies against prior owners of the property. In addition, we may be liable to tenants and may find it difficult or impossible to sell the property either prior to or following such a cleanup.

Risk of Uninsured Property Losses

We maintain property damage, fire loss, and liability insurance. However, there are certain types of losses (generally of a catastrophic nature) which may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Such excluded risks may include war, earthquakes, tornados, certain environmental hazards, and floods. Should such events occur, (i) we might suffer a loss of capital invested, (ii) tenants may suffer losses and may be unable to pay rent for the spaces, and (iii) we may suffer a loss of profits which might be anticipated from one or more properties.

NOTE 16 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

We continue to implement our strategy of acquiring properties in desired markets. It is impractical for us to obtain historical financial information on acquired properties and accordingly, proforma statements have not been presented.

We account for our property acquisitions by allocating the purchase price of a property to the property’s assets based on management’s estimates of their fair value. Techniques used to estimate fair value include an appraisal of the property by a certified independent appraiser at the time of acquisition. Significant factors included in the independent appraisal include items such as current rent schedules, occupancy levels, and discount factors. Property valuations are completed primarily using the income capitalization approach, which anticipated benefits are converted to an indication of current value.

The total value allocable to intangible assets acquired, which consists of unamortized lease origination costs, in-place leases and tenant relationships, are allocated based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the remaining term of the lease and the tenant’s credit quality, among other factors.

The value allocable to above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a market discount rate) of the difference between (i) the contractual rents to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term, and (ii) management’s estimate of rents that would be paid using fair market rates over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above or below market leases are included in lease intangibles, net in the accompanying balance sheets and are amortized on a straight-line basis as an increase or reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases.

We estimate the in-place lease value for each lease acquired. This fair value estimate is calculated using factors available in third party appraisals or cash flow estimates of the property prepared by our internal analysis. These estimates are based upon cash flow projections for the property, existing leases, and the current economic climate.

Our analysis results in three discrete financial items: assets for above market leases, liabilities for below market leases, and assets for the in-place lease value. The calculation of each of these components is performed in tandem to provide a complete intangible asset value.

Key factors considered in the calculation of fair value of both real property and intangible assets include the current market rent values, dark periods, direct costs estimated with obtaining a new tenant, discount rates, escalation factors, standard lease terms, and tenant improvement costs.

2011 Purchases

In January 2011, the operating partnership purchased a 4,997 square foot restaurant in Apple Valley, Minnesota for approximately $2.5 million.

The operating partnership also purchased the remaining 65.44% interest in Sierra Ridge, a 136 unit apartment complex in Bismarck, North Dakota for approximately $6.5 million. The purchase was financed with approximately $2.2 million in cash and the assumption of $4.3 in debt. The debt assumption was finalized on April 1, 2011.

For one acquisition completed during the first nine months of 2010, the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeded the fair value of the purchase price of the business. Consequently, we reassessed the recognition and measurement of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and concluded that the valuation procedures and resulting measures were appropriate. As a result, we recognized a gain of $608,500 associated with this acquisition. The gain is included in the line item “Other income” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The Board of Trustees has determined an estimate of fair value for the limited partnership units issued in 2011 and 2010. In determining this value, the board relied upon their experience with, and knowledge about our real estate portfolio and debt obligations. The board also relied on valuation methodologies that are commonly used in the real estate industry, including, among others a discounted cash flow analysis, which projects a range of estimated future streams of cash flows reasonably likely to be generated by our portfolio of properties, and discounts the projected future cash flows reasonably likely to be generated by our portfolio of properties, and discounts the projected future cash flows to a present value.

The board also took into account the estimated value of our other assets and liabilities including a reasonable estimate of our debt obligations. Based on the results of the methodologies, the board determined the fair value of the limited partnership units to be $14.00 per unit.

As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies utilized by the board in reaching an estimate of the value of the limited partnership units are based upon a number of estimates, assumptions, judgments or opinions that may, or may not, prove to be correct. The use of different estimates, assumptions, judgments, or opinions would likely have resulted in significantly different estimates of the value of the limited partnership units. In addition, the board’s estimate of limited partnership unit value is not based on the fair values of our real estate, as determined by GAAP, as our book value for most real estate is based on the amortized cost of the property, subject to certain adjustments.

Furthermore, in reaching an estimate of the value of the limited partnership units, the board did not include a liquidity discount, in order to reflect the fact that the limited partnership units are not currently traded on a national securities exchange; a discount for debt that may include a prepayment obligation or a provision precluding assumption of the debt by a third party; or the costs that are likely to be incurred in connection with an appropriate exit strategy, whether that strategy might be a listing of the limited partnership units or INREIT common shares on a national securities exchange or a merger or sale of our portfolio.

NOTE 18 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In October 2011, the operating partnership purchased a 42,000 square foot implement dealership in Marshall, Minnesota for approximately $5.0 million. The purchase was financed with the issuance of limited partnership units valued at $2,554,599 and approximately $2.4 million in new mortgage financing and cash. The purchase price allocation is not yet complete.

The operating partnership has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire a 414 unit apartment complex in Eagan, Minnesota for approximately $26 million. The transaction is expected to close in December 2011 pending due diligence and other normal contingencies.

Pending acquisitions are subject to numerous conditions and contingencies and there are no assurances that the transactions will be completed.

We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of this filing. We are not aware of any subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

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

Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

Certain statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, (i) trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations; (ii) our business and growth strategies; (iii) the real estate industry; (iv) our financing plans; and other risks detailed in the Company’s other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “may”, “plan”, “should”, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were made and are not guarantees of future performance.

Plan of Operation

We operate as an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust, which is a REIT that holds all or substantially all of its assets through a partnership which the REIT controls as general partner. Therefore, we hold all or substantially all of our assets through our operating partnership. We control the operating partnership as the sole general partner and own approximately 25.8% of the operating partnership as of September 30, 2011. For purposes of satisfying the asset and income tests for qualification as a REIT for tax purposes, our proportionate shares of the assets and income of our operating partnership will be deemed to be assets and income of the trust.

We use this Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust structure to facilitate acquisitions of commercial real estate properties. A sale of property directly to a REIT is generally a taxable transaction to the property seller. However, in an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust structure, if a property seller exchanges the property with one of its operating partnerships in exchange for limited partnership interests, the seller may defer taxation of gain in such exchange until the seller resells its limited partnership interests or exchanges its limited partnership interests for the REIT’s common stock. By offering the ability to defer taxation, we may gain a competitive advantage in acquiring desired properties over other buyers who cannot offer this benefit. In addition, investing in our operating partnership, rather than directly in the trust, may be more attractive to certain institutional or other investors due to their business or tax structure. If an investor is interested in making a substantial investment in our operating partnership, our structure provides us the flexibility to accommodate different terms for each investment, while applicable tax laws generally restrict a REIT from charging different fee rates among its shareholders. Finally, if our shares become publicly traded, the former property seller may be able to achieve liquidity for his investment in order to pay taxes.

Operating Partnership

Our operating partnership, INREIT Properties, LLLP, was formed as a North Dakota limited liability limited partnership on April 25, 2003 to acquire, own and operate properties on our behalf. The operating partnership holds a diversified portfolio of commercial properties and multi-family dwellings located principally in the upper and central Midwest United States.

As of September 30, 2011, approximately 58.2% of the properties are apartment communities and senior assisted living communities located primarily in North Dakota with others located in Minnesota and Nebraska. Most multi-family dwelling properties are leased to a variety of tenants under short-term leases.

As of September 30, 2011, approximately 41.8% of the properties were comprised of office, retail and medical commercial property located primarily in North Dakota with others located in Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Minnesota, Nebraska, Texas and Wisconsin. Most commercial properties are leased to a variety of tenants under long-term leases.

Table of Contents

The real estate portfolio consisted of 90 properties containing approximately 3,862 apartments, 193 assisted living units and 1,097,304 square feet of leasable commercial space as of September 30, 2011. The portfolio has a gross book value of approximately $355.4 million, which includes assets held for sale, and book equity, including noncontrolling interests, of approximately $143.9 million as of September 30, 2011.

Our Board of Trustees and Executive Officers

We operate under the direction of our Board of Trustees, the members of which are accountable to us and our shareholders as fiduciaries. In addition, the Board has a specific fiduciary duty to supervise our relationship with the Advisor, and evaluates the performance of and fees paid to the Advisor on an annual basis prior to renewing the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor. Our Board of Trustees has provided investment guidance for the Advisor to follow, and must approve each investment recommended by the Advisor. Currently, we have ten members on our board, seven of whom are independent of our Advisor. Our trustees are elected annually by our shareholders. Although we have executive officers, we do not have any paid employees.

Our Advisor

Our external Advisor is INREIT Management, LLC, a North Dakota limited liability company formed on November 14, 2002. Our Advisor is responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for identifying, acquiring and disposing investments on our behalf. The Advisor is owned in part by Kenneth Regan, a trustee and our Chief Executive Officer, and by James Wieland, also one of our trustees, who owns indirectly through an entity. In addition, Messrs. Regan and Wieland serve on the Board of Governors of the Advisor.

Investment Objectives

Our primary investment objectives are to:

 

   

to acquire quality real estate properties or interests in real estate properties that can provide stable cash flow for distribution to our shareholders, preservation of capital and realization of long-term capital appreciation upon the sale of such properties;

 

   

to offer an investment option in which the value of the common shares is correlated to commercial real estate as an asset class rather than traditional asset classes such as stocks and bonds; and

 

   

provide a hedge against inflation through use of month-to-month rentals or short-term and long-term lease arrangements with tenants of our rental properties.

We may change our investment objectives only with the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding common shares.

Investment Strategy

Our investment strategy is to primarily acquire and hold a diverse portfolio of:

 

   

commercial real estate properties or portfolios of real estate properties in various sectors, including multi-family residential, senior housing, retail, office, medical and other commercial properties, including restaurants, primarily located in North Dakota and other states located in the United States; and

 

   

ownership interests in real estate properties in various sectors, including multi-family residential, senior housing, retail, office, medical and other commercial properties located in these markets.

 

41


Table of Contents

We anticipate that the majority of our acquisitions will be located in or near metropolitan areas. However, there is no limitation on the geographic areas in which we may acquire targeted investments.

We may make investments alone or together with other investors, including with affiliates of the Advisor, through holding company structures or joint ventures, real estate partnerships, tenant-in-common deals, REITs or other collective investment vehicles. We also compete with other owners and developers of investment properties to attract tenants to our properties. Competition for investment properties affects our ability to acquire suitable investment properties and the price we pay for acquisitions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal demands for funds will be for the (i) acquisition of real estate and real estate-related investments, (ii) payment of acquisition related expenses and operating expenses, (iii) payment of distributions and redemptions, and (iv) payment of principal and interest on current and any future outstanding indebtedness. Generally, we expect to meet cash needs for the payment of operating expenses and interest on outstanding indebtedness from our cash flow from operations. We expect to pay distributions to our shareholders from our cash flow from operations; however, we may use other sources to fund distributions, as necessary. We expect to meet cash needs for acquisitions and other real-estate investments from net proceeds of stock offerings and debt proceeds.

We continually evaluate our liquidity and ability to fund future operations and debt obligations. As part of our analysis, we consider lease expirations, credit quality of tenants and debt maturity schedules among other factors.

Credit Quality of Tenants

We are exposed to credit risk within our tenant portfolio, which can reduce our results of operations and cash flow from operations if our tenants are unable to pay their rent. Tenants experiencing financial difficulties may become delinquent on their rent or default on their leases and, if they file for bankruptcy protection, may reject our lease in bankruptcy court, resulting in reduced cash flow. This may negatively impact net asset values and require us to incur impairment charges. Even if a default has not occurred and a tenant is continuing to make the required lease payments, we may restructure or renew leases on less favorable terms, or the tenant’s credit profile may deteriorate, which could affect the value of the leased asset and could in turn require us to incur impairment charges.

Historically, the geographic location of our properties and credit-worthiness of our tenants, have resulted in minimal to no property impairments or write-offs on uncollectible rental revenues. We anticipate the trend to continue. It is possible, however, that tenants may file for bankruptcy or default on their leases in the future and that economic conditions may again deteriorate.

To mitigate credit risk, we have historically looked to invest in assets that we believe are critically important to our tenant’s operations and have attempted to diversify our portfolio by tenant, tenant industry and geography. We also monitor tenant performance through review of rent delinquencies as a precursor to a potential default, meetings with tenant management and review of tenants’ financial statements and compliance with financial covenants. When necessary, our asset management process includes restructuring transactions to meet the evolving needs of tenants, refinancing debt and selling properties, as well as protecting our rights when tenants default or enter into bankruptcy.

Lease Expirations and Occupancy

No significant leases are scheduled to expire or renew in the near term. The advisor actively manages our real estate portfolio and begins discussing options with tenants in advance of scheduled lease expirations. In certain cases, we may obtain lease renewals from our tenants; however, tenants may elect to move out at the end of their term. In the cases where tenants elect not to renew, we may seek replacement tenants or try to sell the property.

Debt Maturity

One of our principal long-term liquidity requirements includes repayment of maturing debt. The following table provides information with respect to the maturities and scheduled principal payments of our indebtedness as of September 30, 2011. The table does not represent any extension options.

Share Rescission or Liquidation

We could be subjected to claims by shareholders that prior securities sales were not proper. However, we presently believe that few, if any, of our shareholders will request rescission due to several factors, including our strong operating performance over the last three years, earnings that cover dividends, increased dividends, and, we believe, the current value of our common shares, currently set at $14.00 per share, would exceed the amount a shareholder would receive pursuant to a rescission offer. In fact, based on limited utilization of our repurchase plan (whereby less than 3.5% of the shares sold have been requested to be repurchased under this new plan since January 1, 2011) and known demand for our common shares at $14.00 per share, we believe that such claims will not exceed $1,000,000 and most likely would not exceed our cash and cash equivalents, which exceeded $7,300,000 at September 30, 2011. The amount of any such claims, if asserted, however, is speculative at this time and the potential claims could approximate $33,000,000. If claims are greater than anticipated and such claims are found to be meritorious, our liquidity could be negatively affected and we could be required to sell additional securities or borrow additional funds. We believe we have ready access to any additional capital that might be required, but there is no assurance such funds will be available or, if available, on terms acceptable to us.

Sources and Uses of Cash during the Period

Operating Activities

Our real estate properties generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues, which are reduced by interest payments, direct leases costs and property-level operating expenses. Property-level operating expenses consist primarily of property management fees including salaries and wages of property management personnel, utilities, cleaning, repairs, insurance, security and building maintenance costs, and property taxes. Additionally, we incur general and administrative expenses, advisory fees and acquisition and disposition expenses.

 

43


Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $13.0 million and primarily related to rental receipts offset by the payment of property management fees, property operating expenses, acquisition-related expenses and general administrative expenses.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities are generally comprised of real estate-related transactions (purchases and sales) and payments of capitalized property-related costs such as intangible assets and real estate tax and insurance escrows.

Net cash used in investing activities was $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily due to the aggregated payment of $6.2 million for the acquisitions of properties including related intangible assets offset by proceeds from a sale of two properties: (i) retail property in Norfolk, Nebraska; and (ii) assisted living facility in Williston, North Dakota.

Net cash used in investing activities was $18.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily for the acquisitions of properties including related intangible assets.

Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we paid $7.0 million in distributions to shareholders and others with noncontrolling interests in our operations. We also made scheduled mortgage principal installments of $11.3 million. We received $7.6 million in proceeds from mortgage financings related to recent investment activity.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we paid $6.3 million in distributions to shareholders and others with noncontrolling interests in our operations. We also made scheduled mortgage principal installments of $11.2 million and payments on short-term note borrowings of $8.7 million. We received $11.0 million in proceeds from mortgage financings related to recent investment activity.

Our objectives are to generate sufficient cash flow over time to provide shareholders and others with noncontrolling interests in our operations with increasing distributions and to seek investments with potential for strong returns and capital appreciation throughout varying economic cycles. We have funded 100% of the distributions from operating cash flows. In setting a distribution rate, we focus primarily on expected returns from those investments we have already made to assess the sustainability of a particular distribution rate over time.

Cash Resources

At September 30, 2011, our cash resources consisted of cash and cash equivalents totaling $7.4 million. We also had unencumbered properties that had a gross book value of $17.2 million at September 30, 2011, that may be used as collateral to secure additional financing in future periods, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing for these properties. We also have three lines of credit, (i) $5.0 million with Wells Fargo Bank that is secured by an office property in Duluth, Minnesota, (ii) $1.92 million with Bremer Bank that is secured by an office property in St. Cloud, Minnesota and (iii) $2.0 million with State Bank and Trust that is secured by a multifamily property in Fargo, North Dakota. There were no outstanding balances on the lines of credit as of September 30, 2011. Our cash resources can be used for working capital needs and other commitments.

The issuance of limited partnership units of the operating partnership in exchange for property acquisitions is also expected to be a source of long-term capital for us. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, we issued 507,809 limited partnership units valued at approximately $7.1 million in connection with the acquisitions of a 4,997 square foot restaurant in Apple Valley, Minnesota, a 40 unit and two 24 unit apartment complexes in Fargo, North Dakota, a 2,712 square foot restaurant and 3,510 square foot office building in Moorhead, Minnesota, a 40.26% interest in a 144 unit apartment complex in Bismarck, North Dakota and an 18 unit apartment complex in Grand Forks, North Dakota.

 

44


Table of Contents

Cash Requirements

During the next twelve months, we expect that cash payments will include paying distributions to our shareholders and to others who hold noncontrolling interests in our operations, making scheduled mortgage loan principal payments, reimbursing the advisor for costs incurred on our behalf and paying normal recurring operating expenses. We expect to continue to use excess funds to invest in new properties.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Preparation of our financial statements requires estimates and judgments to be made that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. We evaluate these estimates based on assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The difficulty in applying these policies arises from the assumptions, estimates and judgments that have to be made currently about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future economic conditions, operating results and valuations as well as management intentions. As the difficulty increases, the level of precision decreases, meaning that actual results can and probably will be different from those currently estimated.

There have been no material changes in our Critical Accounting Policies as disclosed in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, which have previously been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Property revenues. Property revenues increased approximately 11.0% from $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to $12.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, primarily as a result of a net increase of properties added to our portfolio.

Overall physical occupancy in our multifamily properties was 96.9% as of September 30, 2011 compared to 97.9% as of June 30, 2011 for a decrease of 1.0% during the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Overall physical occupancy in our multifamily properties remained unchanged at 96.1% as of September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010.

Overall physical occupancy in our commercial properties was 97.8% as of September 30, 2011 compared to 95.0% as of June 30, 2011 for an improvement of 2.8%. The improvement was primarily driven by the September 2011 sale of a retail property in Norfolk, Nebraska, which had an occupancy rate of less than 20% prior to sale. Overall physical occupancy in our commercial properties was 92.5% as of September 30, 2010 compared to 92.2% as of June 30, 2010. Overall occupancy improvement compared to 2010 is attributed to the sale of the Norfolk, Nebraska retail space, improved occupancy at a retail property in Fargo, North Dakota and improved occupancy at an office building in Duluth, Minnesota.

Tenant concessions improved from 0.8% during the three month period ended September 30, 2010 to 0.7% in the same period of 2011.

Real estate taxes. Our real estate tax expenses increased approximately 17.7% from $1.2 million to $1.5 million for the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The change is a result of the increase in number of properties held in our portfolio.

Property management fees. Property management fees, which is the expense incurred for day-to-day management of our properties, increased 8.8% from $0.9 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 to approximately $1.0 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as result of the increase in number of properties held in our portfolio.

Repairs and Maintenance. Repairs and maintenance expenses were $1.4 million and $1.1 million for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase of 20.0% for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 from the same period in 2010 was a result of an increase in the number of properties in our portfolio and additional painting work during these periods in 2011 compared to 2010. Repairs and maintenance expense as a percentage of rental income increased from approximately 10.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to 11.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Utilities. Utilities expense increased slightly for the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The change is a result of the increase in number of properties held in our portfolio.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses were $0.4 million for both the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, expenses primarily related to legal, accounting and advisory fees. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, expenses primarily related to advisory and acquisition fees.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 10.2% from $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The $0.2 million increase was primarily a result of depreciation and amortization of properties added to our portfolio. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of rental income for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was consistent at 20.5% and 20.6%, respectively.

Interest expenses, net. Interest expense, net, of $2.9 million for each period, was approximately 23.7% and 25.7% of rental income for three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease of interest expense as a percentage of rental income during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was a result of lower interest rates for mortgage notes payable during these periods in 2011 to 2010 and increased rental revenues from acquired properties unencumbered by mortgages.

Other. Other income for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 is comprised of the proportional equity from the unconsolidated affiliate acquired July 2011. Other income for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 is the bargain purchase gain of $608,500 recorded on an acquired property.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (FFO) applicable to common shares and limited partnership units means net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. The term Funds From Operations was created to address this problem. It was intended to be a standard supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excluded historical cost depreciation from – or “added it back” to – GAAP net income.

Our management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because it provides supplemental information that facilitates comparisons to prior periods and for the evaluation of financial results. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate our financial results, develop budgets and manage expenditures. The method used to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP, is likely to differ from the methods used by other companies and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures. Management encourages the review of the reconciliation of this non- GAAP financial measure to the comparable preliminary GAAP results.

Since the introduction of the definition of FFO, the term has come to be widely used by REITs. In the view of NAREIT, this use (combined with the primary GAAP presentations required by the Securities and Exchange Commission) has been fundamentally beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making it easier than before to compare the results of one REIT with another.

While FFO applicable to common shares and limited partnership units is widely used by REITs as a performance metric, not all real estate investment trusts use the same definition of FFO or calculate FFO in the same way. The FFO reconciliation presented here is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate investment trusts. FFO should also not be considered as an alternative to net income as determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of a real estate investment trust’s performance, but rather should be considered as an additional, supplemental measure, and should be viewed in conjunction with net income as

presented in the consolidated financial statements included in this report. FFO applicable to common shares and limited partnership units does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and is not necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund a real estate investment trust’s needs or its ability to service indebtedness or to make cash distributions to shareholders.

FFO applicable to common shares and limited partnership units for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 of $4.2 million decreased $0.2 million compared to $4.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010. The difference in FFO was mostly due to the 2010 gain recognized on a bargain purchase transaction not repeated in 2011.

FFO applicable to common shares and limited partnership units for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 increased to $11.8 million, compared to $11.7 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The increase in FFO was due to a net increase in properties acquired in the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same nine month period in 2010.

The following tables include calculations of FFO and the reconciliations to net income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We believe this calculation is the most comparable GAAP financial measure (in thousands):
